Chapter 2964: The Wang family must not remain! Zhang Lin's attitude is tough!

Since he could deceive those emperors of the time, he should understand that promises are the most unreliable things; this is just like a contract today.

The so-called "prevents gentlemen but not villains"—sometimes these so-called promises and written documents cannot solve any problems; the key depends on personal character.

If a person's character is bad to a certain degree, then naturally no one will believe those promises of theirs; conversely, this kind of cooperation can be established.

Of course, the definition of cooperation itself is mutual. Wang Canghai himself is a villain; how could he perform the actions of a gentleman?

So Zhang Lin could now be 100% certain that Wang Canghai, in essence, did not believe what King Wannu said, but the strength of King Wannu at that time was too formidable, and many of the things Wang Canghai possessed at that time

were likely given by King Wannu, including his deep-sea laboratory, and the construction of the Heavenly Palace in the Clouds—none of this could be separated from King Wannu's help.

Under this premise, Wang Canghai, under pressure, had to agree to all of King Wannu's requirements, but over these many years, although Wang Canghai guarded the secrets,

it was also not because he truly fantasized that King Wannu could fulfill his former promise, but because he was worried that the previous threat

or that kind of disguised curse would become reality.

Zhang Lin nodded slowly, thinking that according to this logic, basically everything could be explained.

It seemed Mr. Wang didn't reveal any valuable information, because this kind of promise itself was still as Zhang Lin had guessed before, but the other party's words served to "nail the coffin," turning the problem that Zhang Lin was only suspicious of into reality.

After figuring this out, Zhang Lin nodded slowly and continued to ask, "Is there anything else you want to tell me?"

When Mr. Wang heard Zhang Lin ask this, he was speechless. He thought to himself: Is this not enough?

Actually, at first, Mr. Wang wanted to occupy a certain amount of initiative, because at least Zhang Lin took the initiative to call him, which proved that the other party had already taken the bait!

So he wanted to use this method to discuss conditions with the other party. If he threw out all his trump cards at the beginning, what would he use to talk to Zhang Lin later?

The key was that Zhang Lin could go back on his word at any time, or even ignore him. At that time, he couldn't go out to complain and could only swallow that bitter pill.

It was just that this thought only stayed in his mind for a moment before Mr. Wang concluded that since he was already in such a passive and awkward situation,

moreover, a person like Zhang Lin would not be threatened by anyone. Even if the other party was interested in the security, Zhang Lin never lacked the ability to explore the answers.

So Zhang Lin didn't need to compromise with anyone. Not knowing things now didn't mean he wouldn't know them later. Anyway, the attitude Zhang Lin showed from the start was that he wasn't in a hurry at all.

If he didn't say it, he would investigate it himself.

Precisely because of this, Mr. Wang made the decision to throw out his trump cards directly, but this actually counted as him being smart for once. If he had really used the method he initially thought of, clearly, Zhang Lin would definitely have hung up the phone directly.

Just as Zhang Lin himself said at the beginning, he didn't have time to haggle with the other party over useless things.

Anyway, he just wanted to get an answer, and what the other party said was only "icing on the cake" for Zhang Lin, and definitely not "sending charcoal in the snow."

After a long silence, Mr. Wang said with difficulty, "I'm sorry, Mr. Zhang, I really only know this much. Of course, I do know some trivial matters, but I don't think you would be interested in those, right?"

He could only tell the truth, and he didn't hide his inner thoughts. Mr. Wang was very clear that a person like Zhang Lin would absolutely not allow any deception to exist.

If he wanted to surrender, he had to bring sincerity. If he beat around the bush and didn't say what was asked, instead talking about messy things, it would only invite Zhang Lin's displeasure.

Mr. Wang was clearer about this than anyone else.

Since that was the case, he wouldn't make that wrong choice. Actually, if he wanted to take a risky path, he shouldn't have exposed his trump cards entirely at the beginning, but instead should have used such a method to lobby Zhang Lin. However, he quickly realized that Zhang Lin definitely didn't have that kind of patience.

Now everything proved that his thought was correct.

Zhang Lin told Mr. Wang with the most intuitive performance that his patience was indeed not much, and fortunately, he chose the most correct path.

The next moment, Zhang Lin also nodded with satisfaction and said, "Alright, I'll contact you if there's anything. Also, you must have conditions for telling me these things. Let me guess, you want to save your own life, right?"

Mr. Wang's eyes lit up, but soon his mood suddenly became dim, and he said, "Mr. Zhang, not just me, but the entire Wang family."

Zhang Lin immediately interrupted the other party, "Stop right there. If you want to save your own life, no problem. If you want to save others' lives, if conditions permit, that's also possible. But there is one thing you must understand: the two words 'Wang family' itself should not exist. I hope you know what I am talking about, and understand what range your requirements can be within."

Zhang Lin could make some choices for the authorities, and he could guarantee that if the other party was willing to surrender, even if Zhang Lin didn't look highly upon them, perhaps the authorities would look at Zhang Lin's face and choose to show extra mercy. And as long as the things over these years weren't too excessive, the authorities wouldn't be too calculating.

Anyway, from a fundamental sense, the biggest conflict the Wang family had was with those tomb raiders with different purposes. Based on this, those scattered members of the Wang family had a way out. And the reason Mr. Wang initially determined that he was in an awkward situation was because he was the leader.

He didn't want to directly expose Wang Canghai in front of everyone now. Even if that were really the case, most people wouldn't believe it.

Even if Zhang Lin could prove this, as long as Zhang Lin gave Wang Canghai a little opportunity later, even if Wang Canghai couldn't retaliate against Zhang Lin through his own methods, killing him would be very easy.

At this time, Zhang Lin also directly dispelled the other party's idea of reorganizing the Wang family. He now wanted to take these members of the Wang family to find a new location and then reorganize—this was absolutely a fantasy to Zhang Lin.
