Chapter 20: Two Elizabeths?
In the splendid manor, the banquet is unfolding,
Holding a goblet, the dashing Morgan is constantly lobbying everyone to invest in the upcoming railway bonds.
But I didn't pay much for it.
Seeing this, a sneer appeared in Lu Yan's eyes, the arrogant nobles have never been able to bow their heads and look at the "businessmen"!
But it doesn't matter, at most two months, Lu Yan will take their wealth and leave,
By the way, give the whole of London a piece of chicken feathers!
Walking in front of Lu Yan, Morgan sighed helplessly: "They may not be interested in our project!" ”
"These people are too arrogant, but don't worry, you should step on their heads and talk!"
looked at Morgan with a smile on his face, and Lu Yan spoke contemptuously,
Looking at Lu Yan, Morgan pursed his lips and said, "Do you really want to do this?" ”
"If we don't play like this, we'll have to finish the railroad construction for a long time!"
Looking at Morgan meaningfully, Lu Yan was undoubtedly warning him, don't be too soft-hearted,
Hearing Lu Yan say this, Morgan put down the last trace of mustard,
After all, he was once one of the nobles of Britain, but he didn't have the right to inherit.
has been knocked to the dust, so there is still kung fu to take care of others!
As long as the plan is successful, they will have the greatest wealth in the world,
But the premise is to find a good substitute for the dead ghost!
"Which one do you think of? Boss! ”
Just when Lu Yan was thinking about how to find the right candidate, Morgan set his eyes on the man not far away,
I saw that he was leaning his back at the moment, constantly handing out something around,
But in the face of the teasing of others, the man can only smile and pick up things.
At this moment, Lu Yan stepped forward and said, "What do you want to sell?" ”
"Sir, do you have any thoughts on science? I'm using the power of thunder and lightning to try to resurrect humans! ”
Looking at Lu Yan excitedly, the man seemed to be very happy, someone could ask him,
Hearing this person's thoughts, Lu Yan's first reaction was: "Use thunder and lightning to resurrect humans? ”
"That's right, sir, I believe that thunder and lightning have divine powers!"
Looking at Lu Yan with bright eyes, Victor Frankenstein immediately explained,
[Victor Frankenstein! 】
Just after Victor chatted with Lu Yan and planned to invite him to the laboratory to have a look, Lu Yan said with a smile: "I'm not free today, but I will definitely go next time, this is an investment for you, I hope your experiment can be successful, this must be a discovery that shocks the world!" Trust me, Victor! ”
"Sir, are you really willing to believe me?"
looked at Lu Yan in surprise, Victor's face was full of the look of meeting a confidant,
"Of course, you have to believe in yourself, Victor, the world is full of possibilities!"
Patting Victor's shoulder, Lu Yan showed a very respectful look,
took out a stack of banknotes, nearly five thousand dollars, Lu Yan handed it to Victor,
You know, in today's era when the average annual income of the overall population is less than $1,700, what does $5,000 mean?
And just as Victor left with a respectful salute on his face, Morgan said with a stunned face: "You actually believe him?" ”
"I believe that he is a ghost, how can thunder and lightning resurrect people!"
smiled disdainfully, but Lu Yan was full of mockery,
It's not like the "Bole" just now!
Looking at Lu Yan's sudden change of face, Morgan was stunned and said, "Then you give him back the money?" ”
"A scientist who is enthusiastic about development will not mind if I use his name! After all, I've already given the money, haven't I? ”
Turning his head to look at Morgan, Lu Yan shrugged his shoulders and spoke,
After listening to Lu Yan's words, Morgan was stunned in place,
Lu Yan is planning to sell Victor directly! 5,000 US dollars, buy someone's "life"!
Obviously, you were so kind and pleasant one second, why do you plan to treat people as prey in the next second?
But looking at Lu Yan, Morgan suddenly realized that his boss seemed to be "black-hearted"!
Sensing Dao Morgan's thoughts, Lu Yan asked, "Do you have any better goals?" ”
"I'm sorry!"
Looking at Lu Yan embarrassedly, Morgan thought that Victor seemed to be the most suitable candidate,
Is there anything more suitable for a "scientist" who would rather believe that thunder and lightning can resurrect people?
"In that case, let's go, find a few people, and spread the word! Let these damned nobles, see what it's called, cruelty! ”
With a smile, Lu Yan was about to say something, but he turned his head sharply and said, "Come out!" ”
"I'm sorry, gentlemen, but I didn't mean to eavesdrop on your conversation!"
raised his hands in embarrassment, and Elizabeth Bennett in front of him immediately showed a bitter smile,
Pride and prejudice! 】
She didn't eavesdrop on purpose at all, but she heard a little strange conversation between Lu Yan and Victor, so she stopped,
I'm going to see if there's really such a magical thing,
But then, the conversation between Lu Yan and Morgan scared her!
"It's okay miss, as a gentleman, how can we care if our conversation is heard!"
Walking up to Elizabeth, Lu Yan showed a warm smile,
But just when Elizabeth thought she would be fine, Lu Yan raised her hand as fast as lightning and slashed at her neck.
When Elizabeth felt a dizziness in front of her brain, the whole person was directly paralyzed,
Holding Elizabeth, Lu Yan glared at Morgan and said, "What are you waiting for?" Come and help! ”
"Oooo
Hearing Lu Yan's words, Morgan hurriedly stepped forward,
When the two of them helped Elizabeth to leave, the guard in front of the door smiled and said, "Sir, do you need help?" ”
"No need!"
took out his wallet, and Lu Yan handed out a few dollar bills and said, "Please help me open the car door!" ”
"Yes, sir, no problem at all!"
Pulling open the carriage door, the guard smiled and bowed, "Sir, I wish you a smooth journey!" ”
"Thanks!"
took off his hat and returned the salute, Lu Yan turned his head and said, "Morgan, you idiot, you almost hurt us to show your stuff!" ”
"I'm sorry, it's the first time I've done anything like this! Please forgive me! ”
Looking at Lu Yan with a pale face, Morgan couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat,
Don't look at him walking around the nobles and merchants at the banquet, he seems to be very comfortable,
But Morgan is only 20 years old now!
When young people encounter such an emergency, it is inevitable that they will appear flustered,
is not like Lu Yan at all, even if he is a "thief", he is still very calm,
After all, people with strong hearts don't care about the difficulties in front of them!
Even if it is the south wall, he is confident that he can penetrate it with one punch!
Returning to the temporarily purchased manor, Lu Yan carefully helped the woman in,
Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly felt a little strange, because that woman seemed to be very much like Elizabeth!
Just as Lu Yan thought of this, Stanley led Elizabeth in,
looked at the two of them dumbfounded, and Lu Yan couldn't help but look at the woman on the sofa,
Then his eyes widened: "Two Elizabeths? ”
"No, who is this woman? How long have I been away before you found a replacement? ”
Looking at Lu Yan in shock, Elizabeth couldn't help covering her mouth, her face was full of astonishment,
Stanley and Kuipa also looked at each other after noticing this scene,
Why did the boss go out and find an Elizabeth to come back?
Who did they bring back?
Just when the two of them were gradually running out of brains, Morgan ran in and said, "I found out, this woman is Elizabeth Bennett!" The second daughter of a small landowner's family came to London to visit her uncle."
"Two Elizabeths?"
Looking at Elizabeth on the sofa and standing in front of her, Morgan patted his head and said, "God, what the hell did I see!" ”
