Chapter 2755: Too Close to the Problem to See! How Can One Clearly Perceive One's Situation?!
Thus allowing these matters to proceed more smoothly, but right now Zhang Lin Has Already has a relatively perfect plan; what he truly needs to worry about has always been the Ten Thousand Slaves King, not Wang Wang Canghai.
He believes that if Wang Cang knew about this matter right now, he would probably still be so furious he'd leap about in rage, even vomiting blood just like before.
But right now Zhang Lin has no mind to concern himself with these things; after a moment of blankness, the corner of his mouth curved up in an arc, and then he shook his head.
Actually, for Zhang Lin, this is a relatively very good piece of news—it's just that it came too quickly and too shockingly. When he first heard the sound of the steam whistle, he knew that Mr. Wang had already fled with his people. By the time they reached the sea, Zhang Lin instinctively wanted to raise a question.
To question why the other party still wasn't willing to trust him, but soon Zhang Lin gave up on this thought, feeling that such a thing was inevitable—after all, it still comes back to that one saying.
This cooperation between the two sides is not built upon a foundation of trust; since that is the case, the other party harboring suspicion poses no problem at all. Having thought it through.
These Zhanglinbu Society will not issue a reminder about, which is likewise an inevitability. At the same time, he was certain the other party couldn't figure this out on their own. He never expected Mr. Wang to give him such a pleasant surprise now.
The next moment, Zhang Lin's brow furrowed, and he couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Wang, I feel that given your current predicament of being too close to the problem to see it clearly, you shouldn't be able to see through a problem that appears complicated on the surface but is actually simple. Is it that some capable person among your subordinates reminded you to act this way?"
Upon hearing these words, Mr. Wang's expression immediately brightened, because Zhang Lin saying this indirectly expressed that his choice was definitely correct.
Under this premise, Mr. Wang could set his mind at ease, but very soon Mr. Wang's expression fell again.
Precisely because of Zhang Lin's remark, he ultimately believed that he had already lost himself within the entire situation, fundamentally unable to think through the details within it.
Mr. Wang had initially been unable to find a target for his anger, but soon this momentum was suppressed by the scales of justice in his own heart. Subconsciously, Mr. Wang felt that what the other party said seemed to be exactly correct, which was precisely why it had drawn his fury.
Regardless of whether this matter was true or not, if someone else had said it, Mr. Wang wouldn't have considered its truth or logic at all and would have directly expressed his fury.
After all, everyone has a temper; he truly cannot tolerate such things. Perhaps when a person has been in a high position for too long, they always develop such a flaw.
Sometimes they simply cannot see clearly what kind of existence they actually are, which affects their most fundamental judgment—just like Mr. Wang right now.
Perhaps precisely because of this, Mr. Wang is still as timid and hesitant as ever. Only just now did he finally think through the logic of the matter. In fact, Mr. Wang's self-awareness isn't that clear.
If others knew of Wang Wang Canghai's existence, they would immediately sense that during this period Mr. Wang had actually placed himself above Wang Wang Canghai.
This is a matter of fundamental nature. Given this premise, Wang Wang Canghai wanting to eliminate him poses no problem at all.
Looking at Mr. Wang at this moment, perhaps precisely because of Zhang Lin's words he suddenly saw the light, or perhaps it was through this method that he recalled the choices he had made before, feeling that what Zhang Lin said was absolutely correct—this is the answer.
And along with this answer, Mr. Wang became very certain of what he should do: backing down is the best performance. Even if he could fight for some verbal promises, he understood they held no meaning.
In this world, promises are forever the flimsiest thing. Of course, if the interests of both parties are entangled with each other, then such so-called promises will naturally have an effect.
But if it's just one side seeking the other—for example, the relationship he and Zhang Lin are in now—then naturally whatever Zhang Lin says goes; he has no right to choose whether to believe it or not.
But he can make corresponding choices within his own heart. It's just that right now Zhang Lin has handled things even more decisively. Although he could hear that the other party harbored no ill will toward this decision of his.
However, Zhang Lin's questioning at the first moment led Mr. Wang to be very clear on one point: Zhang Lin doesn't trust his abilities that much. This was something Mr. Wang had never expected from the start.
He had originally assumed that the fundamental reason Zhang Lin chose to pull him into cooperation was absolutely because the other party saw his sufficient abilities, so making such a choice wasn't strange.
At that time, Mr. Wang was not only feeling relieved in his heart, but also secretly pleased with himself. He felt that given his abilities, Zhang Lin had no choice but to make such a choice, which would definitely be very meaningful for what he needed to do afterward.
Even whether it was the rehabilitation of the Wang family, or as long as this matter stabilized, Wang Wang Canghai meant—he couldn't say for sure—he might still be able to lead the Wang family to raise the banner again, no longer caring what the officials said or did.
From this point of view, Zhang Lin's initial worry was entirely necessary, because Mr. Wang still had some rebellious streak to a greater or lesser extent; he never considered wholeheartedly helping Zhang Lin.
But this point is also understandable. Although Zhang Lin had his suspicions, he wasn't completely without understanding, because human nature is inherently so. If one over-trusts human nature, then one is only making things difficult for oneself.
Up until now, the number of people Zhang Lin can trust one hundred percent can be counted on one hand, so Zhang Lin doesn't mind Mr. Wang having his own little schemes.
As long as he doesn't display these little schemes on the surface, it poses no problem for Zhang Lin. Anyway, now Mr. Wang has no choice but to submit to him in handling subsequent matters, so Zhang Lin can completely make all choices according to his own rhythm.
It's just that right now Mr. Wang's choice truly surprised Zhang Lin greatly. Of course, from his reaction, Mr. Wang didn't sense anything unusual, which was also deliberately done by Zhang Lin.
He is very clear that if even Mr. Wang sensed his surprise, then it would obviously be of no benefit to this matter. He cannot allow anyone to grasp his thought patterns.
This is also a habit of Zhang Lin's. After asking this question, he was indeed waiting for Mr. Wang's answer. Those words just now did indeed contain a teasing element.
But part of it was also genuine curiosity from Zhang Lin. He felt that if Mr. Wang had such a sensible person by his side.
