Chapter 44: Disrupting the Plan
The next morning, Lin Ziran heard Luo Mazi's familiar words again:
"My lord, it's not good!"
"My lord, Wang Zhenshou ran away!"
These words directly frightened Lin Ziran.
Why did Wang Jinqian escape? It should be dangerous to run, is it because someone found out that they are impostors? That's why this Wang Jinqian ran?
Immediately, Lin Ziran calmed down and said, "What's the matter? Did the officers and soldiers call? ”
Luo Mazi was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then quickly explained: "No, the officers and soldiers didn't call!" ”
When Lin Ziran heard this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: "Oh, why did the surnamed Wang run away?" ”
Luo Mazi also looked puzzled: "I know, the people who monitor the town guard mansion said that Wang Jinqian was fine yesterday, but today he disappeared, and he didn't even eat breakfast." ”
"After interrogation, the brothers below found that not only could Wang Jinqian not find anyone, but several of his henchmen didn't know where to go, and the money collected some time ago was also gone!"
Lin Ziran's face slowly sank.
Then he said, "Find him out for the official!" ”
Originally, Lin Ziran didn't care about Wang Jinqian's life or death, anyway, the two sides were not in a gang, but he had an opinion on this Wang Jinqian who suddenly ran away.
This opinion is not because Wang Jinqian donated money and ran away, although the money is also important, it is actually not that important.
What he is worried about is that after this Wang Jinqian escapes, then the future will be uncontrollable.
Wouldn't it be bad if this person had a big mouth and braged about his fake town guard experience everywhere, and then exposed him naturally!
As everyone knows, Wang Jinqian was also afraid that Lin Ziran would be exposed, so he fled with the money in advance.
After all, so far, their disguises are not bad, and the government has not found out that they are all fake.
Since the government didn't find out, the officers and soldiers didn't call, and Lin Ziran didn't have any conflicts with Wang Jinqian recently, everyone went their own way, and the well water did not interfere with the river water, so the reason why Wang Jinqian wanted to escape was very simple.
Even if Lin Ziran thinks about it now, he can probably guess that this Wang Jinqian is probably afraid, and he stopped in advance if he wanted, took the money and ran away.
However, Wang Jinqian's run means that Lin Ziran will not be able to continue to control this person, which will bring some trouble.
This kind of thing, Lin Ziran naturally won't happen to him!
Soon he was instructed to send people to look for it immediately, not only to send a few people to find it, but also to immediately send a flying horse to give an order, so that the patrol battalion and the brothers of the old bandits would immediately set up a card at the surrounding intersections.
With Lin Ziran's order, Wu Dajiang rushed out with more than forty soldiers!
It's a pity that the people they are looking for are not a few ordinary people, but a few bandits who have fled overnight last night, and they have been running for at least ten hours!
Moreover, these bandits are quite familiar with the situation in Qingshan Town, and they have often evaded the pursuit of officers and soldiers before.
It's so easy to find them!
At the beginning, the chasing people and horses were able to find some clues, but soon they completely lost their traces of Wang Jinqian, and they could only roughly judge that Wang Jinqian was running in the northeast direction.
After learning that he couldn't catch up with Wang Jinqian, Lin Ziran had to think about the aftermath.
If it's for safety reasons, then you have to take people to run away as soon as possible, as long as you leave this Qingshan Town, the world is big, and there are more places to go.
But the existence of oil fields and refineries made Lin Ziran unable to leave!
Now that kerosene has just begun to be mass-produced, it is expected to bring tens of thousands of Hengyuan profits at least a month.
So much money is enough for him to initially expand his army by five or six hundred people.
Moreover, more oil wells will be drilled in the later stage of the oil field, and the refinery will continue to expand its refining capacity, and then the money will continue to flow in to expand the army.
Before, Lin Ziran was thinking about using the profits brought by kerosene to continue to expand the army for a year and a half, and finally he should be able to pull out a team of two or three thousand people.
With a force of two or three thousand people, even if it is finally discovered that he is from a bandit, so what?
These years are troubled times, not to mention other places, at least Luo'an County and Guang'an County are still fighting, and the front-line combat strength of these two counties is actually tens of thousands of people.
At this time, he Lin Ziran had a force of two or three thousand people, who would dare to despise him?
If Luo'an County couldn't accommodate him, he didn't say a word, and went directly to Guang'an County.
Presumably, Guang'an County will be happy to add an army of more than 2,000 people to join their camp out of thin air.
At the beginning, Lin Ziran took this into account, so he actively developed kerosene in Qingshan Town and expanded the patrol battalion, as long as his strength was enough, there was no difference between a fake battalion officer and a real battalion officer.
But now Wang Jinqian's run has disrupted his plan!
However, although Wang Jinqian ran away, he had no intention of giving up this plan.
No matter what, this Qingshan Town still has to stay, after all, he can't take the oil field away!
Since you want to continue to stay, and Wang Jinqian runs away again, then you should make some arrangements.
Soon Lin Ziran called Luo Mazi in: "Passed down, it is said that the town guard mansion was on fire, and Wang Zhenshou was unfortunately buried in the fire, unrecognizable!" ”
Since Wang Jinqian ran away, then Lin Ziran is a hundred, and directly creates the news that he died in a fire, as long as it is officially confirmed, then even if Wang Jinqian is talking nonsense outside, but who will believe him at that time?
A bandit leader, can you believe what he says?
When Luo Mazi heard Lin Ziran's words, he immediately showed admiration: "The adults are high-minded, the small ones are admired, the small ones have been crisscrossing the rivers and lakes for more than ten years, and I have seen many heroes, but when it comes to intelligence, no one can compare with adults!" ”
Lin Ziran ignored his praise, but continued to instruct: "Pay attention, you do it yourself, don't make a mistake!" ”
Luo Mazi said: "The little one understands, and the little one will arrange it personally!" ”
After Luo Mazi finished speaking, he hurriedly retreated and made arrangements.
Luo Mazi did this kind of thing, Lin Ziran was still relieved.
But even if it is possible to fake the illusion that Wang Jinqian died in a fire, there will definitely be hidden dangers in the future.
And this incident also made Lin Ziran even more worried about the future.
Identity exposure is only one aspect, and on the other hand, he is also beginning to worry that the windfall profits of kerosene will attract the prying eyes of people with intentions.
This kerosene business, that is really a million profits, as long as the oil wells are drilled and the refinery is built, then it can provide a steady stream of money, and this money will definitely increase, and it will be impossible if no one is watching at that time.
No one can sit idly by and remain indifferent to such a vast gold mine.
