Chapter 2567: An Analogy to the Undersea Tomb

As long as anything off is spotted, report it to Mr. Wang immediately, and at this moment Wang Canghai suddenly darted to a corner and snatched up the phone, which left Wang Hu feeling oddly unsettled.

He wondered what the other party was up to; if the other party really was hiding some ulterior motive, should he report it to Mr. Wang?

He was torn over this in his heart, but the next moment Wang Hu shook his head, thinking there was no need to make a fuss—maybe this person was just contacting the officials to report the situation and see what to do now.

And once Wang Hu was sure the call was over, the other party's reaction next would be what he truly needed to watch; it was possible the other party would come straight to negotiate with him again about what came next, so Wang Hu was on full alert—Mr. Wang's words had been oddly phrased, which made Wang Hu feel even less sure of where he stood.

If Mr. Wang could chat a couple of lines with this person, Wang Hu would judge things from that, or Mr. Wang might as well just tell him straight out what the other party's identity actually was; after hearing what the other party said when contacting Mr. Wang earlier, Wang Hu was certain of one thing.

Mr. Wang absolutely knew the other party's identity, he just hadn't told him; even if he wasn't a hundred percent sure, he at least had a guess, and that guess was very likely accurate.

But Mr. Wang simply hadn't said, which left Wang Hu all kinds of puzzled; in fact, Mr. Wang's not saying was also out of curiosity—if he made Wang Canghai's identity public, most of the Wang family members' mindset would probably collapse along with it.

Unfortunately, some things, even if not spoken, are a form of protection for the current Wang family, yet these people don't appreciate it, just like Wang Hu right now.

Earlier, when hanging up the phone, Mr. Wang could tell Wang Hu was already carrying that subjective emotion, but in the end Mr. Wang didn't take it to heart.

He understood the feelings of someone like Wang Hu—Wang Hu seemed to think the Wang family hadn't fallen apart yet, that the Wang family could still pull itself together again, but Mr. Wang's move was a deliberate cutting-off-the-arm-to-survive, and what was being cut off was the Wang family itself; from now on, the Wang family would no longer exist in this world.

That was the price of the exchange, and Zhang Lin had told him very frankly before that if this matter wasn't handled according to his demands, then this cooperation could just be called off.

Put nicely it's cooperation; put bluntly, it's Mr. Wang leading the entire Wang family to submit to Zhang Lin's command.

And what Zhang Lin wanted to do afterward was entirely his own business—Mr. Wang had no right to interfere; if the Wang family learned the truth, he didn't know how they would react.

But that was no longer something Mr. Wang needed to consider; meanwhile, the First Archaeology Team was now speeding along, and Fatty was urging at this point: "Tianzhen, you have to make a call—tell me, does my plan actually work or not?"

Wu Tianzhen broke into a helpless laugh, nodded and said: "Fine, even if we go by your plan, even if we find the entrance, how exactly do we open it? Use explosives? Or dig it open bit by bit? These are all problems right now, not to mention whether that entrance is even the right one."
