Reborn, I want to be the richest man!

The morning sun tried hard to penetrate the clouds, but only cast mottled light and shadows between the tall buildings in the city, as if it had lost its way in this bizarre business situation. I sat at my desk, and the pile of documents in front of me was like my chaotic thoughts at the moment, which were unclear and tangled. At this moment, the phone rang suddenly, and the familiar yet unfamiliar name displayed on the screen was Zhao Yu, a former competitor.

"Why did he contact me suddenly?" I was full of doubts, and my fingers hesitated on the answer button for a moment, and finally pressed it. "Hello?" My voice was a little wary, and my eyes revealed uneasiness and suspicion.

"It's me, Zhao Yu. I think you must be overwhelmed by the so-called "business curse" now. I know some inside information, which may be able to help you, and I also want to talk to you about cooperation." His low and slightly hoarse voice came from the other end of the phone. There seemed to be endless secrets hidden in that voice, which made me unpredictable.

"Cooperation? Why would you help me? We are competitors." I frowned, and doubts surged in my heart. Countless thoughts flashed through my mind in an instant. Could this be another trap set by him? Did he want to take advantage of my situation and further destroy me? But I also knew that the company's current situation was like on the edge of a cliff, shaky, and I couldn't let go of any possible turnaround.

"It's hard to explain over the phone, let's meet. At 3 o'clock this afternoon, in the old warehouse on the outskirts of the city." Zhao Yu didn't answer my question, but hurriedly set the time and place for the meeting, and hung up the phone.

I put down my phone, stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the prosperous but indifferent city streets outside the window. "Is this an opportunity, or another conspiracy? What is Zhao Yu up to?" I murmured to myself, struggling fiercely in my heart. On the one hand, I was eager to get key information about the "business curse" from him so as to save the company from the water and fire; on the other hand, the past open and secret struggles with him in the business world made it difficult for me to trust him, fearing that this was a trap he carefully planned, and once I stepped into it, I would be doomed.

I decided to discuss it with Xiaolu first. When I returned home, Xiaolu was trimming flowers and plants in the garden. When she saw me coming back, she put down the scissors in her hand and came to greet me. "Dear, why are you back so early? Is there something wrong with the company?" She asked with concern, her eyes full of tenderness and worry.

I told her the content of Zhao Yu's call. Xiaolu pondered for a moment and said, "This is indeed suspicious, but as you said, the company doesn't have many options now. Maybe he really wants to cooperate? But you must be careful when you go to see him. I will let the driver Xiao Wang accompany you, so that you can take care of anything." Her voice was soft but firm, and her calm analysis calmed my panic a little.

I looked at her gratefully: "Xiaolu, I feel more at ease with you by my side. You always give me the most pertinent advice when I am confused." I gently held her hand.Draw strength from her warmth.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, my driver Xiao Wang and I arrived at the old warehouse on the outskirts of the city on time. It was a slightly dilapidated building, surrounded by weeds, giving people a gloomy and desolate feeling. I took a deep breath and said to Xiao Wang: "Wait for me outside. If there is anything unusual, call the police immediately." Xiao Wang nodded: "Boss, don't worry, I will pay attention."

I pushed the car door and walked into the warehouse slowly. The light in the warehouse was dim and filled with a stale atmosphere. Zhao Yu was standing in the middle of the warehouse, and his figure seemed a little blurred in the dimness. "You are here." He saw me and nodded slightly.

I looked at him vigilantly: "Zhao Yu, you can tell me, what is the inside story? Why do you help me?" My voice echoed in the empty warehouse with a questioning tone.

Zhao Yu smiled, but there was not much warmth in his smile: "Actually, I am also a victim. Our company has also encountered some inexplicable things recently. Although not as serious as yours, I found that there seems to be a powerful force behind it. I investigated for a long time and found that all this is related to a mysterious business organization. They seem to be using means such as "business curse" to exclude dissidents and monopolize the market." As he spoke, he slowly approached me, revealing a trace of helplessness and anger in his eyes.

"Then why do you want to cooperate with me? We have competed a lot before." I still did not relax my vigilance, staring at his eyes, trying to find a flaw in his eyes.

Zhao Yu sighed: "In the face of such a powerful enemy, the power of our individual companies is too weak. Only by uniting can we compete with it. I know we have competed in the past, but now, we have a common enemy." His tone became sincere, and his eyes became more sincere.

I secretly thought about his words in my heart. Although his explanation seemed reasonable, I still didn't dare to believe it easily. "Then what evidence do you have to prove that what you said is true?" I asked.

Zhao Yu took out a folder from his pocket and handed it to me: "This is some information I have investigated. Although it is not very comprehensive, it can also explain some problems. You can take a look."

I took the folder and opened it. There were some photos of mysterious capital flows, suspicious people, and some vague business transaction records. These materials really shocked me. If what he said is true, then the enemy we are facing is much stronger than I thought.

"These materials are not sufficient. How do I know that this is not forged by you to deliberately lure me into the trap?" I closed the folder and still maintained a skeptical attitude.

Zhao Yu shook his head helplessly: "I knew you wouldn't believe me easily. Let me give you a clue. You can investigate a small supplier of your company before. He suddenly disappeared recently, but I found that he had contact with that mysterious organization. If you can find evidence from him, you will believe me."

ILooking at him, I was hesitant. "Okay, I will investigate. But I warn you, if this is your conspiracy, I will not let you go." I said harsh words and turned to leave.

"Wait." Zhao Yu stopped me, "I know it's hard for you to believe me now, but I really want to cooperate. I hope you can investigate it as soon as possible. Time is running out. This mysterious organization is moving faster and faster. We must take action as soon as possible."

I didn't respond to him and walked straight out of the warehouse. Back in the car, Xiao Wang asked, "Boss, how is it?"

I shook my head: "It's not clear yet, let's go back first." I looked at the scenery passing by the window, and my heart was mixed. Is this unexpected ally a turning point in fate or the beginning of another nightmare? I don't know, but for the company and for my family, I must muster up the courage to explore the truth hidden in the darkness, even if the road ahead is full of thorns.
