"Bang--!"

The heavy wooden door to the factory manager's office was kicked open from the outside with tremendous force, slamming heavily against the wall with a loud bang.

Yu Bo, who was reading the newspaper, suddenly jolted as the newspaper in his hand shook.

He looked up, his brow furrowed, about to explode in anger, when he saw his good-for-nothing son stumbling in.

Yu Gaoyang's face was contorted with jealousy and terror.

"Dad! It's Lu Qingshan again! That Lu Qingshan!"

"He...he spent 40,000 yuan! 40,000 yuan! to buy a factory in the county town!"

Yu Bo's fingers tightened unconsciously as he gripped the newspaper, the fine paper slowly crumpling into a ball in his palm.

"What did you say?"

His voice was low, as if he were suppressing a volcano about to erupt.

It's that Lu Qingshan again, ruining his plans time and time again!

"He bought that run-down coal briquette factory in the western suburbs!"

"I really don't know what kind of luck he had, a peasant like him, to make so much money!"

Yu Gaoyang spat out words as he pointed outside, as if pointing at a monster that had appeared out of nowhere.

"Sun Dahai, the former director of the coal briquette factory, handed over the land deeds to him in front of everyone!"

"Now the whole county knows! Everyone calls him Boss Lu!"

Yu Bo remained silent.

He slowly placed the tattered newspaper on the table.

Seeing his son's distraught appearance, he knew it couldn't be fake.

Forty thousand yuan.

The number was like a red-hot iron rod, stabbing hard into his brain and stirring it back and forth.

That peasant, in his eyes, wasn't even worthy of carrying his shoes.

That ant he could crush with a flick of his wrist.

Where did he get so much money?

Countless thoughts flashed through Yu Bo's mind, and finally, all the clues pointed to one place.

Mountain produce!

A health product factory in the provincial capital!

He suddenly remembered that he had sent someone to the provincial capital to inquire about Guo Haipeng's factory's new "Hawthorn Appetizer Pills," which were selling like hotcakes!

He took it as a joke at the time and didn't take it to heart.

Looking back now, the profits from that deal were far more terrifying than he had imagined!

Because of a batch of substandard mountain products, he was burdened with a huge debt of nearly 100,000 yuan, his factory was on the verge of bankruptcy, and he was disgraced.

Lu Qingshan, on the other hand, quietly earned 40,000 yuan, or even more, through the same business!

Wait a minute... what exactly is he planning to do by buying that coal briquette factory in the western suburbs?!

Yu Bo's face suddenly turned deathly pale, and a chill ran from the soles of his feet straight to the top of his head.

Building a factory! This country bumpkin is going to build his own factory!

He wants to challenge himself!

The county town is only so big, and the surrounding mountain products and sales channels are limited, which is like having too many wolves and not enough meat.

Once Lu Qingshan's factory is up and running, with his current financial resources and connections in the provincial capital, he will definitely snatch up all the supplies and business!

This is an attempt to destroy Yu Bo, to ruin his livelihood, and to completely eliminate him!

Why should I?!

An uncontrollable fire of jealousy, mixed with immense panic and a sharp sense of humiliation, erupted from the deepest part of his heart, instantly consuming his last remaining rationality.

"dad!"

Seeing his ashen face, Yu Gaoyang added fuel to the fire by exaggerating.

"He owns factories and land now, and he keeps Scarface Liu and his gang under him! He's the boss!"

"If we don't take action now, from now on... from now on in this county, we'll really have to live at his mercy!"

The last sentence was like the most poisonous needle, precisely piercing Yu Bo's most painful spot.

He, Yu Bo, the factory director of Hongxing Food Factory, had been a powerful figure in the county town for half his life.

Why should he have to look at the face of a peasant in his early twenties who crawled out of a mountain ravine?

He suddenly stood up from the chair, his chest heaving violently.

He paced back and forth in his office, his leather shoes making dull thuds on the floor, one after another, as if stepping on his heartbeat.

We absolutely cannot lose!

We absolutely cannot lose to Lu Qingshan!

He had been hesitant about taking the risk, but now the thought was crystal clear and unwavering.

He stopped in his tracks.

His gaze was fixed on the inconspicuous safe in the corner.

There lay the money he had prepared to gamble with.

The last 20,000 yuan in the factory's account.

That was a reserve fund set aside for purchasing raw materials after spring.

It was the factory's last lifeline.

His breathing became extremely heavy.

A voice screamed in his head: This is public funds! It's a crime! Once discovered, it's an abyss of no return!

But another voice laughed even more wildly: "Take a gamble! Just this one! If you win, you'll have everything! You'll be able to crush Lu Qingshan under your feet!"

"dad?"

Looking at his unpredictable expression, Yu Gaoyang called out cautiously.

Yu Bo suddenly turned his head, his eyes bloodshot and flashing with a gambler's madness.

"go!"

He let out a suppressed growl as he looked at Yu Gaoyang.

"Guard the door! Don't let anyone in!"

Yu Gaoyang was so frightened that he shuddered and turned to go outside the office to check the door.

Yu Bo opened the bottom drawer of his desk and rummaged around inside.

His fingertips touched a string of cold metal.

His hands trembled violently when he took out the spare key to the finance office.

He walked step by step toward the safe that would determine the fate of the rest of his life.

Every step felt like walking on the edge of a cliff.

"Click".

The safe door was slowly pulled open.

Inside, two large bundles of money, wrapped in thick kraft paper, lay there quietly.

Twenty thousand yuan.

Yu Bo reached out and stuffed the money into his black leather bag, then zipped it up.

After doing all this, he felt as if all his strength had been drained, and leaning against the safe, he slowly slid down to the ground.

There was no turning back for him.

Yu Gaoyang looked at his father and didn't dare to make a sound. He just stood at the door, nervously watching the movements in the corridor outside.

I don't know how much time has passed.

Yu Bo stood up from the ground.

He walked to his desk and picked up the black phone.

His hands have stopped shaking.

His eyes regained their usual coldness and calculation, and even showed a hint of ruthlessness, as if he had decided to burn his bridges.

He dialed the number, and the call was quickly connected.

"Hello, is this Lao Wang? This is Yu Bo."

The person on the other end of the phone seemed a little surprised and quickly responded.

"Now, help me spread the word."

Yu Bo's voice was low, but it carried an unquestionable tone of command.

"Buying wild ginseng at high prices."

"Yes, regardless of condition or age, as long as it comes from the old forests of Changbai Mountain, we'll buy it all!"

"I want as many as you have!"

"The price is negotiable!"
