On the same day, Wang Jiran arranged for his cronies to sell off the property. As for himself, under the protection of a group of guards, he left Shi County under the cover of night.
In less than half a day, he had managed to adjust his mentality. Although he was annoyed that the businessman was so interested in making profits, from his perspective, this matter was just a failed investment.
In business, there is no one who can only win but not lose. !
What's more, a blessing in disguise is a blessing.
Today's Huang Tianjun is no longer the flower of yesterday. Although he once swept the world and almost overturned the orthodoxy of the world.
But that was just the glory of the past.
So what if Zhao Chengcheng made a great contribution? !
Once Huang Tian is defeated, the greater the credit, the faster he will die.
The pawns may still be recruited, but the core figures will definitely not escape the court's liquidation.
Even if those powerful overlords cherish talents, as long as those people don't rebel, they will not dare to recruit Huang Tiandao's core figures.
After thinking about this, Wang Jiran didn't feel so regretful.
In fact, he had already expected all of the above.
If Huang Tianjun had not declined, even if Zhao Chengzhen died in the battle, he would have left his daughter a widow and would never have broken off the engagement.
The real reason why he broke off the engagement was that he saw that Huang Tianjun was dying, which led to this series of events.
And the reason why he left Shi County overnight was not because of Taoist Huang Tian. If Taoist Huang Tian wanted to punish him, he would have been confiscated and exterminated by Huang Tianqi. A little shrimp like him would not be let go by Taoist Huang Tian. In the eyes.
He did this because he was worried that someone in Huang Tian's army wanted to take advantage of him.
If you don't run now, it will be difficult to wait until some people react and want to run again.
The bullock cart moved forward slowly. Wang Jiran opened the curtain of the cart and looked in the direction of Shixian, his eyes flickering.
His hasty escape this time would inevitably result in heavy losses, but in this era, as long as he is alive, there will always be a time to make a comeback.
After all, compared to businessmen like him, ordinary people don't even know the words. Experience and knowledge are his greatest assets.
However, although he understood the truth, thinking that he was like a lost dog at this moment, he could not help but feel angry and depressed in his heart.
"Let's see him build tall buildings, watch him entertain guests, and watch his buildings collapse..."
Wang Jiran murmured.
Now, what he is most fortunate about is probably that as early as more than ten years ago, he saw that the world was in chaos, so he began to spend a lot of money to select children with innocent backgrounds, strong muscles and simple hearts from slaves and employers. He has been trained since childhood to practice martial arts and serve as a guard.
With the Wang family's wealth, there are only more than thirty such guards. After all, not only are the guards completely out of work, but they also have to eat meat, otherwise it is impossible to increase their strength.
Because of this matter, he even reduced the food and clothing expenses for his family. At the beginning, it aroused a lot of opposition.
Fortunately, he had absolute authority at home. Although there were many objections, they could not change his mind.
Putting aside the first six or seven years, when the children grow up and reach the age of fourteen or fifteen, they are already available.
And it was at that time that the world began to become chaotic.
In recent years, because of this group of people, the Wang family has been saved from a lot of troubles.
As for this moment, Wang Jiran deeply felt the importance of strength.
A faint thought gradually emerged in his mind.
In business, even if you are as rich as a country, you will never be able to compare with real power.
Nowadays, with the imperial edict against thieves, local powerful people can recruit their own troops. As long as they kill thieves, they can become officials.
He has this trustworthy team of thirty-seven guards. If he recruits troops, he can be used as a corps commander. As long as he spares money, he will have nearly two hundred people available in no time...
A few years later, when Huang Tian's army was even weaker and the heroes were eating meat, he might not be able to get some of the soup.
It can even snowball.
Throughout the ages, many emperors started out as just three or five brothers, but later they took advantage of the storm and turned into dragons.
With this thought in his mind, Wang Jiran's originally depressed mood began to rise.
If there is a Taoist nearby at this moment, he will definitely find that there is a wisp of dragon energy suddenly erupting from Wang Jiran's body.
In this era, among scholars, farmers, and commerce, businessmen were the lowest. A businessman actually had dragon energy in him. If this kind of thing were told, I am afraid not many people would believe it.
But the reality is that dragon energy is scattered everywhere, and it is not determined by fate. No matter whether you are a noble person or an ant, you have the opportunity to transform into a dragon and become a dragon.
Wang Jiran is one of them, but when he was young, Da Cang's orthodoxy was still there, so his life was tightly suppressed. If Da Cang had not been in chaos, he was afraid that he would not have this wisp of dragon energy until his death. It may be activated, only to be consumed by the powerful order.
Throughout history, we can see that in many cases, it is not the heroes who create the current situation, but the current situation first creates the heroes, and then the heroes in turn promote the current situation.
As for Qianlong, since the world was in chaos, Wang Jiran had the courage to spend huge sums of money to cultivate cronies who were good at fighting, which shows that he is extraordinary.
However, his thinking has been fixed for a long time, so it is difficult for the dragon energy to appear.
Wang Mingwei looked at her father on the oxcart. There was an oil lamp in the car, and the light was very dim. In fact, until this moment, she was not sure what happened.
But she felt that since leaving Shi County, her father seemed to suddenly come to life, with a sense of freshness in his body. This feeling had not appeared in her memory for nearly ten years.
She only remembered that when she was very young, her father felt somewhat like this.
But gradually, gradually, the other party's temperament became more and more old-fashioned and boring.
…
"That traitor Wang Jiran is probably still hiding in Shi County at this time. Unfortunately, that area in Shi County is still Huang Tiandao's territory. The court is there and has no power at all. Otherwise, just capture this old guy and his whole family. , not afraid of the other party being disobedient.”
In the study, Liu Guangzheng was recalling the information about famous ministers and generals in later generations in his head, but he thought of Wang Jiran on a whim.
What is coming is undoubtedly a magnificent era with bright stars.
But the reality is that in his previous life, as the kidnapped emperor, he had no intelligence system of his own. Many things were just hearsay, and he could only know a few things that were widely circulated.
For example, Wang Jiran is already forty years old this year, but he knows that twenty years later, the other party will still be in better health. Some Taoists are even angry at him and say that the other party can live to at least ninety years old.
In this era, ordinary people die in their forties. Even princes and nobles are considered to have lived a long life if they can live to be over fifty. Ninety is simply auspicious.
Of course, what makes Liu Guangzheng remember the other party is not the other party's lifespan, but the fact that he suffered a lot in the other party's hands.
In his previous life, Wang Jiran voted for Cao Zheng.
