In the cigar room, filled with smoke, Hamid and I chatted heart-to-heart, and our words conveyed a feeling of sympathy for each other.

Hamid was lazily leaning on the soft leather sofa, green smoke rising from the cigar in his hand, and under the dim light, his side face was outlined with a hazy outline.

We chatted and the atmosphere was harmonious.

However, in this relaxed and pleasant atmosphere, I seemed to catch a hint of mystery, and a bold guess emerged in my mind.

"Mr. Hamid, can I ask you a question?" I spoke carefully, with a cautious and sincere tone.

Hamid took a puff of his cigar lazily and smiled leisurely: "But it doesn't matter. If you have any questions, Mr. Yang, just ask."

I took a deep breath and looked straight at him with piercing eyes: "Is it because of Mr. Ni that you are willing to cooperate with me?"

A trace of surprise flashed across Hamid's face, and then he smiled in relief.

He didn't answer my question directly, but that meaningful smile said it all.

That's it!

I know it in my heart.

As Hong Sheng's second-in-command, if I can reach a cooperation with him, the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce may never be able to turn around in the oil business.

This is undoubtedly a rare opportunity for Hongsheng.

Saying goodbye to Hamid, I returned to the banquet hall refreshed.

The dazzling crystal chandeliers make the hall sparkle.

While drinking and drinking, laughter and laughter could be heard endlessly.

Tonight is destined to be a wonderful night!

In the next few days, I was thinking hard about this cooperation.

Making plans, contacting people, and being very busy.

In the office, documents piled up like mountains, and the phones rang one after another.

My mind is running rapidly, with thousands of thoughts, for fear of making any mistakes.

At this moment, Mao Li suddenly called and said that we had something important to discuss and asked me to make time to get together at the dock.

I was a little surprised, but I happily went to the appointment.

Mao Li has always been smart and capable, and would never ask me out for no reason unless it was important.

The appointed time will come soon.

I drove to the pier, the sea breeze was blowing on my face, and the salty and humid air was filled with a faint fishy smell.

I saw Mao Li's figure from a distance. She was dressed in a black dress and stood out among the workers.

The strange thing is that there are several unfamiliar faces standing next to her.

One of them was a tall, middle-aged man who looked extraordinary, with the calmness and confidence of a superior person in his movements.

I was suspicious and stepped forward quickly. The wooden planks under your feet creaked, and the waves crashed against the rocks on the shore, making waves of whimpering sounds.

"These guys are..." Before I could finish my words, the middle-aged man took the lead and walked towards me in stride.

"Mr. Yang, I have long admired you. I am Sun Hong, the representative of the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce." He stretched out his hand and shook my hand enthusiastically.

The palm is broad and warm, revealing the unique roughness of Jianghu people.

When I heard the words Nanyang Chamber of Commerce, my heart suddenly skipped a beat, like falling into an ice cave.

Subconsciously looking at Mao Li, I found that she looked calm, as if she had expected this.

She smiled at me, her eyes showing comfort.

"Nanyang Chamber of Commerce?" I frowned and said in a serious tone, "Why did Mr. Sun come here this time?"

Sun Hong smiled brightly and said in a sincere tone: "Mr. Yang misunderstood. We don't have any ill intentions on this trip. We just want to discuss business with you."

"Business?" I sneered, as if I heard a big joke, "Didn't your Chamber of Commerce still want to kill me before? Now it suddenly comes to discuss cooperation, isn't it a bit strange?"

Sun Hong waved his hands repeatedly with an apology on his face: "Mr. Yang is joking. The shopping mall is like a battlefield. Yesterday's opponents can become friends today. We are here this time because we really want to cooperate with you."

I looked at him suspiciously, trying to find some clues in his expression.

His eyes were open and there was a sincere smile on his face, showing no flaws.

"So, what kind of business does Mr. Sun want to discuss?" I crossed my arms and asked coldly.

The wind at the pier became stronger and stronger, making my clothes rustle.

Sun Hong looked around, leaned close to my ear, and whispered: "Actually, our Nanyang Chamber of Commerce in Dubai has always wanted to get involved in oil smuggling. However, due to poor channels, it took more than a year to finally get the idea. Who knows, Mr. Yang showed up halfway and ruined our good business."

When he said this, there was a hint of helplessness on his face, but there was no resentment.

My face remained calm, but my heart was filled with ups and downs.

Sun Hong smiled and said: "Of course, I can't blame you. In business, it's you and me who compete for it, regardless of yesterday or today."

"What do you mean?" I asked, even though I already had the answer in my mind.

"We are talking about business." Sun Hong blinked and his smile became meaningful, "We hope that Mr. Yang can help us do Mr. Hamid's work and complete this business. As long as you nod, we can not only cancel the There will also be generous rewards for your fatwa."

I was lost in thought.

The sea wind roared and rolled up breaking waves.

The sky was getting dark, and the afterglow of the setting sun filtered through the thick clouds, dyeing the sea surface a dark ocher red.

Sun Hong is right.

Although He Hong has joined the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce, he cannot represent the entire organization.

The relationship between me and the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce is actually not deep.

If I insist on going my own way and the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce is determined to oppose me, I am afraid that my development in Dubai will also be hampered.

But if we can turn hostility into friendship, it might not be a win-win move.

Furthermore, Hamid obviously wants something from me. As for what he wants to do, I can’t guess now.

After weighing it again and again, I gritted my teeth and made up my mind.

"Okay, I promise you." I spoke slowly, my voice calm and firm, "However, I have to know what the reward is. I can't let my efforts go in vain, right?"

Sun Hong was overjoyed when he heard this. He nodded repeatedly, and the smile on his face became brighter: "Don't worry, Mr. Yang, as long as you deal with Hamid, you will know what the reward will be when the time comes. Believe me, you will definitely be satisfied."

Looking at his determined smile, I felt mixed emotions.

It was getting late, and the pier gradually became quiet.

Only the sound of wind and waves crashing on the shore is still echoing tirelessly.

An hour later, I quietly left the pier and drove to Hongsheng Park alone.

Outside the car window, the sunset was like blood, rendering the sky a bright red.

The returning bird flew across the setting sun, sending out bursts of hoarse calls that turned into broken echoes in the wind.

But my mood was unstable and full of complex emotions.
