Chapter 4 Kidnapping
After such a delay in Qingyutang, it was already bright, and there were more pedestrians on the road. Wang Chan estimated that there was enough time and took time to eat something casually at the roadside breakfast stall. Then he waited for the bus by the roadside and arrived in Hulin County at about nine o'clock in the morning.
Hulin was a place of "prudent" in ancient times, and it was also the ancestral place of fishing and hunting of the Hezhe people for generations. Even now, it is still mostly ethnic minorities and the folk customs are strong. However, this place is surrounded by several mountains. Except for the Wusuri River, which is a waterway, the external transportation is not convenient. Therefore, since ancient times, the land has been vast and sparsely populated. There are more mountains and forests, but there are few people.
Wang Chan went down the mountain this time to sell the things in his hand for money, and then purchase a batch of daily necessities. As for the reason why he had to take a long way around the tiger forest, in fact, he wanted to take back a "thing" specially customized from an acquaintance three months ago.
Because he stays in the depths of the mountains all the year round and has few opportunities to contact the outside world, Wang Chan's so-called acquaintances in this world are actually those merchants who trade with him every time they go down the mountain. Both sides buy and sell me, and I sell what you buy. Seriously speaking, it's just a matter of profit. They take what they need. It's far from friendship. Friendship. It's
It's just that Zhou Lin, who Wang Chan is looking for when he came to Hulin this time, is the only exception.
After the reform and opening up, the domestic economic situation has improved. With the establishment of the Hulin border trade port, the small Hulin county has become more and more lively, and there are naturally many opportunities to make money. Zhou Lin is an extremely "four-sea" figure. In his forties, he is in his forties. Because of his flexible mind, cleverness, and harmonious relationship with the local black and white, he has a lot of fame in Hulin and belongs to one of the first people to become rich in China.
Zhou Lin's main business is to operate some local special products, selling a large number of mountain goods such as mountain monkey heads, fungus, wild vegetables, etc., but his biggest profit is actually a large-scale smuggling trade behind his back. Relying on the gradual expansion of border trade, Zhou Lin had monopolized most of the underground trading market in the whole Hulin region as early as a few years ago. Whether it is transportation to some regions in China, wild rare animals and plants protected by the state, or the continuous smuggling of precious timber to the opposite Russia, this is what they are doing. The clothes are seamless and watertight.
The relationship with Zhou Lin originated from a chance encounter in the mountains many years ago. At that time, Zhou Lin did not have the weather as it is today. He only operated a small-scale private travel agency to attract tourists who are interested in visiting the Daxing'an Mountains and organize group tours. Because of the lack of distinctive tourism projects, and hearing that there was a Guandi Temple built in the Qing Dynasty, Zhou Lin had the courage to run into the deep mountains alone to visit. Unexpectedly, the mountains were high and dense, and he was lost in the road. When he missed the sky, he was targeted by a hungry "old red hair" and followed him all the time. .
If it hadn't happened to meet Wang Chan, who passed by when he came back from collecting medicine, slapped the old red hair to death. Zhou Lin, who was exhausted, hungry and thirsty, would have died sooner or later.
"Old Red Hair" is actually a kind of wild wolf in the mountains, but the wolves in the Daxing'an Mountains are very different from those in other places. They are usually green, greedy and fierce. When they hunt, there are at least a dozen in groups. The locals call them green wolves. When this kind of green wolf is old, he has to leave the wolf group to live alone. Because he eats too much flesh and blood and corpses, the long hair on his back turns brownish red, so he is called old red hair.
In addition, because after this old wolf was expelled from the wolf pack, he was suspicious and his physical strength declined. When he hunted, he was very different from the usual green wolf. He only followed the prey for a long time, and often followed him for thirty or forty miles. After exhaustion of the human and beasts, he waited for the opportunity to move. Biting the throat of the prey from behind is the most deceitful and dangerous wolf in the mountains.
After that adventure, Zhou Lin recovered from his injury in Wang Chan's Guandi Temple. Only when he returned to Hulin did he decide to close the travel agency that had gradually got on track, and began to grow from small to small and start the smuggling business. And the relationship between him and Wang Chan also came from this.
In the next few years, Zhou Lin also went to the Guandi Temple once or twice from time to time during the Spring Festival. Wang Chan also took it from him several times because of the sometimes dispensing of medicine, and the old mountain ginseng, which is increasingly rare in the mountains, came for emergency. However, he does not owe Zhou Lin's favor. Although the old mountain ginseng is precious, most of the tiger skins and bear skins he has accumulated over the years have also fallen into his hands, laying a "solid" foundation for Zhou Lin's future.
From this point of view, in fact, Wang Chan is still one of Zhou Lin's behind-the-scenes suppliers.
Everyone has their own way of living, and they have to take responsibility for their own actions in a sense. Zhou Lin's smuggling, if he violates the national law, there will naturally be national laws to punish him. Wang Chan doesn't think this has anything to do with him, and he is actually not very disgusted in his heart.
As long as this matter does not affect your head, there will be a tall man who can't hit your own head when the sky falls.
With the deepening of martial arts, the ebony pole that was used to practice shooting was obviously not very good, so Wang Chan found Zhou Lin when he went down the mountain three months ago and asked him to find a doorway in the south to customize a big gun. This time he came to get it.
In modern society, the cold weapons used to fight, especially big guns, have been either sent to museums for exhibition or collected as antiques by some people. You can't even think about it if you want to get a satisfactory one in the folk. Even if you spend money to buy it, it is also valuable, not to mention Wang Chan's customized big gun, and there are many unique requirements, which are tailored for himself, and the asking price is even more ridiculously high. That's why he brought a complete tiger skin, which can be regarded as a barter to reward Zhou Lin.
Although Zhou Lin's current family may not care about this money, Wang Chan has his own standard of life. Money is something outside the body. There will always be something without it, but human kindness is the most difficult thing to repay. If it is not necessary, you should never owe others, otherwise it will be troublesome to pay it back later.
Walking on the road to Zhou Lin's house, Zhou Lin should have just got up at this time. As expected, Wang Chan thought that he should be able to meet Zhou Lin on the road. Although Zhou Lin has done illegal things. Over the years, he has earned enough money that he can't spend for ten lifetimes, but his daily life is not wasted. He is even a little frugal and low-key. The money he should not be spent is never spent indiscriminately. Even when he goes out, he drives by himself and rarely takes a group of bodyguards around.
The weather in the morning was still very refreshing. Before it was sultry, Wang Chan walked slowly on the road and turned a corner. In the distance, he saw Zhou Lin coming out of his villa with a very heavy-looking long canvas backpack. He was about to make a move. Whew.
Suddenly, an old-fashioned jeep suddenly started the engine and rushed straight from the other side of the road. In the blink of an eye, he came to Zhou Lin, who was stunned. He did not stop, but the speed of the car was slightly slow. When he saw two shaved men jumping off the jeep, one left and one right, one punch knocked Zhou Lin unconscious, and the other hug. The first one raised his foot and threw Zhou Lin into the back seat of the jeep in a blink of an eye.
Then it buzzed and turned into a fork in the road ahead, disappearing.
"Knapper!" Wang Chan's eyebrows flashed and immediately realized that Zhou Lin had been kidnapped.
"What Zhou Linping said is to do is to buy and sell money. In the past two years, he has also accounted for more than half of the underground trade in the whole forest protection area. He must have formed a lot of enemies in the open and secretly. He is not used to it by many people. I have already told him that the reason for the rapids to retreat in time, otherwise it will be too late, and there will be a disaster. Now I didn't just talk about it. Fortunately, I bumped into you today, otherwise your life would be gone!"
Seeing the scene just now, the two big men who jumped off the jeep, from the beginning to the end, swept away a big living person "sentlessly" in less than a minute. There was no superfluous action, and they were vigorous and uniform. Obviously, they would not be ordinary "kidnappers". Even if it is not far away from Wang Chan's eyes, he is at least a good fighter who has practiced fighting for several years.
Wang Chan saw it in his eyes. Naturally, he couldn't ignore it, but his starting point at this time was that the big gun he customized was still in Zhou Lin's hand. If Zhou Lin had a big gun he had painstakingly designed, it would have become a "flow of water" and he would never get it back!
"If I hadn't seen it, the canvas bag in Zhou Lin's hand just now contained my big gun. It's really not that I'm strong. There's really nothing I can do! If you take Zhou Lin away, it's equivalent to robbing my big gun. You're unlucky!"
With a sudden smile in his heart, Wang Chan suddenly felt that his blood was boiling. After practicing for so many years, he was in the mountains, practicing with beasts. He had never fought with anyone, but today was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Just like seeing his favorite toy, Wang Chan moved under his feet. He had rushed out of the place with a sack with tiger skin, followed by a foot on the ground and a bang, and his whole body rolled out like a strong wind.
