Chapter 3370: Can the Officials Control Zhang Lin? What a Joke!
At this moment, he tried to analyze the matter from a relatively elevated position—when a person could look down from above, the things he could see clearly grew ever more numerous, and that was precisely the mindset he was holding right now.
And based on such thinking, his own attitude had also skewed; perhaps Mr. Wang's doing so was the correct move, because if he did not act this way, it would lead to Zhang Lin going back on his word.
Even if Zhang Lin were not that kind of person, everyone at New Moon Restaurant had seen clearly that the circumstances made it absolutely impossible for Zhang Lin to use this to coerce Wang into doing all that messy business—but in the end, there was still a chance it was a disguise.
If it were not all fine and dandy, and if it really were that way, then forgetting this one time would mean total annihilation; but if Zhang Lin himself repeatedly confirmed it, then the matter would get a relatively definite answer. At the same time, Mr. Wang had earlier, in a roundabout way, handed over all the Wang family's authority to Zhang Lin, which could also be counted as a test.
Although there was the suspicion of pledging loyalty, in this world who did not have similar flaws? Once one grasped a decent lifeline, one would think of every way to climb up along the pole—this was a base trait of human nature, forever unavoidable. Moreover, everything Mr. Wang was doing now still leaned toward the Wang family.
He would not let any situation arise that went against the Wang family's current thinking; once this point was seen, for this person it was already enough, and he nodded subconsciously beside him.
At the same time, just as Mr. Wang was about to give an affirmative answer, his gaze suddenly caught sight of this trusted subordinate of his, and he could not help but be taken aback.
A wily old fox like Mr. Wang could, at the first instant, read the general situation through the other party's eyes; of course, the main reason was still that this was his trusted subordinate, so he could grasp the other's thoughts very clearly. If it were someone else, Mr. Wang might not have been able to see things so clearly.
The things this trusted subordinate was conveying, Mr. Wang saw very plainly. Since that was so, then after this, Mr. Wang would certainly ask about the other's thoughts; if this person's thoughts were correct, then Mr. Wang would also be very gratified.
Conversely, if the other's thoughts completely clashed with what he was doing now, then no matter how much Mr. Wang had appreciated this person before, after this he would definitely change his current attitude, and might really toss this person straight into the sea.
The situation was now one hundred percent settled; what the Wang family needed to do afterward was hurry back to their original place—that is, turn the ship around.
Under this premise, Mr. Wang actually no longer needed to purge the existing Wang family members, because once this decision was made, the other Wang family members would heap praise upon him and even stand behind Mr. Wang at the first instant.
Even those who had betrayed him would step in for Mr. Wang and settle everything—this point would not deviate in the slightest; at least Mr. Wang himself had such confidence.
But in the final analysis, Zhang Lin's side still had to be dealt with first; if there was no basis for making Zhang Lin one hundred percent satisfied, then Mr. Wang's remaining plans would be nothing more than fantasies conjured in his own mind, and no one would cooperate with him.
