Soon, the restaurant waiter came over with breakfast.

Very rich.

"Mr. Chen, I don't know what you like either. Please eat!"

"You are welcome!"

To be honest, Ed didn't think much of Lin Fan.

After all, in his eyes, Lin Fan was just a chess piece.

However, Lin Fan is of great use, so he must be pulled into the Kent family's camp.

Lin Fan still didn't say anything, just ate a simple breakfast.

"Mr. Chen, my father wants to meet you!"

"I wonder if you have time later!"

Ed extended the invitation.

Lin Fan said, "I have other things to do later, let's do it at noon!"

He thought that this was a good opportunity to visit Durham's estate.

No matter what, we must find out where the remaining two sapphire necklaces are.

Then act quickly and get the sapphire necklace.

So as to avoid any more trouble.

"Alright!"

"Then we will wait for Mr. Chen at the manor!"

Ed was polite enough.

Lin Fan just had a simple breakfast and said.

"Thank you for your hospitality, Mr. Ed. I'll go back first!"

Ed smiled and said, "You're welcome, Mr. Chen!"

"From now on, we'll be one of us!"

Watching Lin Fan leave, a hint of gloom appeared in Ed's eyes.

"How dare you put on airs in front of me!"

"If you weren't of some use, I would have gotten rid of you long ago!"

Ed snorted.

After Lin Fan left, the baby hiding in the dark and another robot also left quietly.

"Let's go back to the manor!"

Ed left with his bodyguards.

The first thing Ed did after returning to the manor was to find his father.

"Dad, it's done!"

"That Chen Kai promised to come see you at noon!"

Duren nodded, "That's good!"

"This person is very skilled, it would be useful to keep him around!"

Ed said, "Dad, this Chen Kai is too mysterious, and I feel like he's... a little dangerous!"

Duren smiled and said.

"Don't worry, I know what to do!"

If it were before, Duren would definitely not have gone to such great lengths to win over a stranger.

But the situation is different now, he is in urgent need of manpower.

Once Lin Fan from China is eliminated, there will be no value in the existence of Chen Kai.

…

A morning passed and nothing major happened.

At noon, Lin Fan drove to Durham's villa alone.

"I have an appointment with Mr. Durham!"

Arriving at the gate, Lin Fan explained his purpose to the manor's bodyguards.

"Come in!"

Duren had already given instructions to the bodyguards, so they did not dare to show any disrespect.

In this way, Lin Fan successfully entered the manor.

In the hall, Duren and Ed were already waiting for Lin Fan.

"Dad, Mr. Chen is here!"

Ed noticed Lin Fan and reminded Duren.

Duren stood up with a smile and walked towards Lin Fan.

"Mr. Chen, you have solved a big problem for our Kent family!"

Although Lin Fan killed his men, Duren didn't feel that he was at a loss.

"Hello, Mr. Durham!"

Lin Fan shook hands with Duren.

"Welcome to our Kent family!"

Duren was also very polite.

But Lin Fan knew very well that this Duren was an old fox.

You may say this, but I'm afraid you don't really mean it.

The three of them came to the sofa and sat down.

Ed interrupted, "Mr. Chen, our Kent family is in need of talent right now!"

"As long as you are willing to work for the Kent family in the future, we will definitely not treat you unfairly!"

Ed began to paint a rosy picture for Lin Fan.

Lin Fan smiled and said, "As long as Mr. Duren needs anything, I'll be at your service at any time!"

Lin Fan said to the system in his heart.

"System, quickly check if there's any mysterious energy nearby!"

Lin Fan didn't know where the Kent family put the sapphire necklace.

“No!”

The system's voice soon rang out.

Hearing what the system said, Lin Fan felt somewhat disappointed.

The Kent family took the sapphire necklace away and no one knew where it was put.

Besides, it was not convenient for Lin Fan to ask directly about this matter.

So as not to arouse Duren's suspicion.

It seems that we have no choice but to think of other ways.

Lin Fan seemed to be lost in thought.

Du Lun said, "Mr. Chen, I have asked someone to prepare lunch!"

“Let’s eat and talk!”

After sitting for a while, Duren took Lin Fan into the restaurant.

Moreover, Duren asked about Lin Fan's life experience intentionally or unintentionally.

Lin Fan just used the information of the fake identity to deal with it casually.

He would never say that he was Duren's mortal enemy Lin Fan.

Half an hour later, Lin Fan, who had eaten his fill, left the manor.

"Dad, why don't we just send this Chen Kai to China and get rid of Lin Fan!"

Watching Lin Fan walk away, Ed suggested.

Duren shook his head, "There's no rush for this!"

"It's undeniable that Chen Kai is quite capable!"

"But if he were to go to China to kill someone, I'm afraid he wouldn't agree!"

Duren also had another concern, which was that their operation had just failed.

At this time, the Chinese police must still be investigating, and it is not a good time to take action against Lin Fan.

Du Lun said, "There's no rush for this, let's wait a moment!"

At the very least, they should wait until Chen Kai trusts them.

Duren could see that the other party still had concerns.

"That's the only way!" Ed nodded.

Lin Fan drove back to the hotel where he was staying.

Before the car had driven far, Lin Fan discovered that he was being followed.

It was obviously sent by Duren.

Duren couldn't completely trust Lin Fan either.

Lin Fan just smiled, found a place, and shook off the person who was following him.

After returning to the hotel, he turned on his computer and compiled a list of the Durham Alliance.

Then, I called Red Rose.

"Mr. Lin, what can I do for you?"

Lin Fan said, "I sent a list to your email!"

"Next, we are going to short the assets of the Durham Alliance!"

Red Rose was shocked by Lin Fan's plan.

"Short selling?"

"Mr. Lin, isn't this too crazy?"

Red Rose was a little bit hesitant to believe it.

After all, the members of the Durham Alliance are more prestigious than each other.

Moreover, the company under their name is also a world-renowned technology company.

Even if we take out the weaker ones, they are still worth hundreds of billions of Chinese yuan.

There are even companies with a market capitalization of over one trillion yuan.

It is very difficult to short sell.

Lin Fan smiled and said, "Don't worry!"

"I won't do anything I'm not sure of!"

Even the most difficult lithography machines have been manufactured, so Lin Fan feels that shorting those technology companies will not be a problem.

Most importantly, he has capital.

Red Rose asked hesitantly, "Mr. Lin, what's next?"

Lin Fan said, "The next step is of course to buy the stocks of those companies and then gain control!"
