My boss betrayed me

Xia Muchu used his hands and feet to frantically push all the documents on the table to the ground, and then anxiously pushed them aside. It took a lot of effort and hard work to finally make room for his old classmate to sit down.

Then, he hurriedly took out a can of Coca-Cola from the refrigerator and put it on the table, and hurriedly took the ashtray and his teacup from the VCR.

At this moment, his brows were tightly twisted into a knot, the corners of his mouth were drooping, and every wrinkle on his face seemed to be telling of endless fatigue in a hoarse voice.

While he was doing this, he asked in a light and weak voice, "Tell me, what is the essence of the world?"

Fang Baiyun's heart skipped a beat, and the word "cruel" flashed through his mind and emerged clearly.

He said seriously, "It hasn't even officially started yet, and you're already thinking about your mental balance. It seems like this is definitely not a trivial matter."

Xia Muchu said nothing, but just leaned on the sofa like a puddle of mud, limp and powerless, with his eyes half closed, and his whole body looked as if his soul had left his body and he had lost all his spirit.

Fang Baiyun said anxiously, "But you called me here from afar, you wouldn't just ask me to act as your psychologist to entertain you, right?"

"Between us brothers, let's skip all the long-winded and dragging preludes. Don't beat around the bush, just get straight to the point!"

Xia Muchu said slowly and weakly: "Whether it is the law of the jungle or the salvation of all living beings, the essence of the world must be the survival of the fittest."

"This topic is too big and too profound. Different people have different opinions. It is not something that ordinary people like us can easily explain and make clear."

When he spoke, his voice was hoarse and low like an old bellows, and his speech was slow and weak as if a snail was crawling, revealing deep fatigue and exhaustion.

Fang Baiyun said angrily, "I don't know what you are up to. What earth-shattering event do you want to do? If you don't have a clue in your mind."

"You're running around like a headless fly. I think we should just give up and stop trying to save our efforts."

Xia Muchu shook his head without hesitation, gritted his teeth and struggled to stand up and took a few steps, but the room was so crowded that there was no extra space, so he had no choice but to sit down again.

His body swayed a few times, and he seemed unable to even stand steadily. His face showed an expression of helplessness, extreme fatigue, and despair of life.

Fang Baiyun could no longer hold back and asked anxiously, "Then tell me the truth. What is this grand plan that will shock the world and make the gods weep and the ghosts cry?"

"Stop being so secretive and vague. It's driving me crazy!"

Xia Muchu was silent for a long time, as if time had frozen, then he took a deep breath, looked firm and said:

"I plan to integrate all existing resources to create a comprehensive, unprecedented mega-project spanning multiple fields and involving several different industries."

"It is unprecedented in scale and has a huge impact. However, the specific details still need further careful planning and refinement of details."

Fang Baiyun's eyes widened, almost popping out of their sockets, his face full of surprise, and he shouted in a hoarse voice: "This is really a bold, shocking and crazy idea."

"But the risks involved are like a huge abyss and should not be underestimated!"

As he spoke, he stared at Xia Muchu without blinking, his eyes full of concern and deep worry, and his heart was in his throat.

Xia Muchu's eyes were as firm as iron, with a blazing fire burning in them, and he said decisively: "Risks and opportunities have always been inseparable and go hand in hand."

"I definitely don't want to miss this great opportunity that could change my life and soar to fame. I'm going all out and taking a gamble!"

"After a pause, he continued, "Ayue's manuscript can be sold for one million Dragon Coins, but this is far from enough for her to build her own grand business."

"So, the successful bidding for the manuscript is just a small opening, an insignificant prelude. The real exciting drama has not yet begun."

"For us, we are almost 40 years old, and it is time to give it a try, do something big, and accomplish something great and earth-shaking."

“You can’t just waste your time doing nothing but filling your stomach.”

"In recent years, we have accumulated a lot of valuable experience in knowledge and practice. The current conditions and opportunities are quite suitable and rare."

"I was thinking of launching an unprecedented operation to lay a rock-solid and unbreakable foundation all at once."

Fang Baiyun looked puzzled and asked, "What kind of crucial role do I play in your plan?"

Xia Muchu answered slowly, "This question should be left for last. I racked my brains and pondered for a long time, going through all the people I could think of in my mind."

"But after searching my mind, I really can't find anyone more suitable and capable of taking on this important task than you."

"Without you, this plan will be like losing its foundation. It will collapse in an instant and become a bubble. There is no way it will ever be realized."

"So, you have to help me no matter what. Together, we brothers can accomplish anything."

Fang Baiyun sighed helplessly: "If I could make the choice, maybe I wouldn't have stepped into this muddy water at all."

Xia Muchu said: "Well, let's get to the point now."

"Today you will first get a general understanding of the situation. The key is the project that Yi Chen is doing and the joint venture that Wang Long is doing. You must learn every detail of these two projects."

"Every subtle detail has been carefully considered, and not a single detail can be missed."

"Let's discuss the overall plan in depth tomorrow. One day should be enough. I believe in your ability."

Fang Baiyun quickly responded: "Okay, I can read the information myself, so that I can have a deeper impression and a more thorough understanding."

"You should seize this rare moment of respite and have a good sleep to recuperate. We can go out to have a good meal and relax in the evening."

Xia Muchu said, "Okay, I won't keep you any longer." After saying that, he turned around and walked hurriedly towards the bedroom.

Fang Baiyun hurriedly stopped him: "Wait a moment. You and I are both half-educated people after all, and I have a question that I'm really curious about."

"Why are you so confident that Ah Yue's manuscript can be sold for one million Dragon Coins? I really want to get to the bottom of it. What kind of shocking book can be so valuable that makes you so sure?"

Xia Muchu asked back: "Do you remember Xu Dahai? I asked you to investigate his mistress Dong Xiang in Austria before."
