The real daughter, she became famous all over the world by fortune telling

Zhou Boping was silent for a long time.

Just when Director Guo thought he wouldn't speak and was about to ask Pei Anzhu to use the mantra, he slowly raised his head, his eyes far away, and told the whole story:

"This is a deal with the devil."

With these words, Zhou Boping's memory went back from this moment to more than fifty years ago, when he was still young——

At that time, Zhou Boping was thirty years old, a high-spirited age.

He was born into the wealthy Zhou family and was the only heir. He didn't need to compete with his other brothers and sisters. He would just take over the family business when his father didn't want to do anything anymore.

His wife was from the wealthy Ling family, also one of the five families, with a prominent status. They had been married for seven years and had two sons.

The family fortune is rich, the family is happy, the wife is virtuous and the son is filial.

For Zhou Boping at that time, life was smooth and beautiful, like a dream.

Sure enough, I woke up from this dream on an ordinary afternoon.

His father told him that there was a big problem with the Zhou family.

The Zhou family started out as a river transport and maritime logistics company. At that time, there was a very large batch of goods from abroad, and they needed a reliable fleet to transport them to China.

But this batch of goods is very important, and the damage will be double compensation, which is conservatively estimated to be at least 2 billion.

At that time, no one in the country could accept this order. Even the Zhou family, even if they tried their best, could only do so reluctantly.

In order to win this order, two other logistics families took the initiative to find the Zhou family to cooperate, saying that the three families would win this order together.

According to the market share of maritime logistics, the Zhou family owns half, and the other two account for 30% and 20% respectively. If the investment is calculated in this way, the future profits will also be calculated in this way.

Therefore, the Zhou family agreed after investigating in many aspects.

The next step was to sign the agreement, inspect the goods, and transport them. Everything went smoothly at first. The Zhou family was waiting for their employer to receive the goods and pay them, but something went wrong.

When the fleet was sailing on the sea, the lead ship of the Zhou family deviated from the established route for unknown reasons, disrupting the fleet's formation, and then encountered a whirlpool in the sea, causing the entire fleet to be wiped out.

Whether it’s the ship or the cargo, it’s basically gone.

However, several people on the ship narrowly escaped death. They returned to China with the video evidence and witness statements, and then blamed the entire incident on the Zhou family.

They said that if the fleet followed the planned route, there would be no problem.

Because the weather was very good those days, the sea was calm, and there was no mess, they could safely deliver the goods to the country.

But it was because of something wrong with the Zhou family's boat that they suffered heavy losses.

Not only the client's goods were gone, but the ships of the other two companies were also gone. They joined forces to demand compensation from the Zhou family.

Everyone in the Zhou family died in this disaster. No one knows why the leading ship, which was fine, suddenly changed its course, and why the Zhou family's ship was thrown into chaos.

There is no proof, only the video proves that it is the Zhou family's problem.

The Zhou family faces huge compensation, with a total payment of 2 billion, as well as the fleets of two other companies. If they are all compensated, the Zhou family will go bankrupt.

Because if they lose money, it means that the Zhou family has admitted that this matter is their problem. No matter what happens in the future, no one will trust their fleet anymore.

When there is no business, the Zhou family will only decline step by step.

The head of the Zhou family at that time, Zhou Boping's father, originally wanted to go to the two partners and ask them for a period of grace, but unexpectedly, he heard a terrible secret.

It turned out that this huge order was originally a trap set up by those two families for the Zhou family.

In order to invade the Zhou family's shipping market and break the Zhou family's near-monopoly, those two companies teamed up with foreign leather bag companies to set up such a trap.

They had been preparing for this game for three years, and everything was complete. The Zhou family couldn't find any clues at all, so they accidentally fell into it and faced a big disaster. At that time, the Zhou family had only two choices:

Either accept his fate, sell his property to compensate the three families, and then withdraw from the wealthy circle of Yuncheng, with no chance of recovery from now on.

Either we can find evidence to prove that this matter was not the fault of the Zhou family. Only in this way can we overthrow the three alliances, and we are not afraid of going to court.

The first way is to destroy the ancestral foundation.

But the second way is so difficult. Where can I find evidence in the vast sea?

At this moment, the mysterious man in a black cloak appeared. He wore a black and white facial mask and had a hoarse voice. He found Zhou Boping.

"He said he wanted to make a deal with me." Zhou Boping recalled, "He said he could help me get evidence to prove that the Zhou family was not at fault and help the Zhou family survive this disaster. But after success, he asked me to help If he does something, he cannot refuse."

Zhou Boping never thought at that time that there would be Xuanmen power in this world.

He didn't know how that person wanted to help him, let alone what the other person wanted him to do, but he thought at the time:

As long as the Zhou family survives this disaster, then with the power of the Zhou family, no matter what the other party wants, it should be able to help the other party do it, even if it is illegal and criminal, it is not impossible.

With this idea in mind, Zhou Boping signed an agreement with the man in black.

"That agreement was very special. It was written on yellow paper with a red cinnabar pen, and there were some strange symbols drawn on it." Zhou Boping added, "I didn't understand at the time. I would do whatever he said. At his request, I cut my finger and signed my name in blood."

"It's a blood contract." Pei Anzhu said clearly, "Those who sign a blood contract must abide by their promises and follow the cause and effect, otherwise they will suffer backlash and die a bad death."

"Yes, it's a blood contract." Zhou Boping nodded.

After signing the blood contract, the man in black asked Zhou Boping to prepare the boat and took him to the sea, where the fleet accident occurred.

In front of him, the man in black showed a power he had never seen before:

The art of controlling ghosts.

The man in black took out a Hundred Ghost Banner and ordered the drowned water ghosts in the entire sea to help search for evidence below.

Fleets generally have voyage recorders, just like the driving recorders on cars.

Especially the first boat is fully equipped.

The water ghosts found a video of the time of the accident on the ship, and found that someone disguised himself, sneaked into the Zhou family's fleet, killed the captain of the first ship, and chose a direction at random.

It was easier for some of the Zhou family's ships to keep up, but the team was in disarray and the formation was also disorganized.

The videos found by the water ghosts were very comprehensive. From the spy entering the cockpit, to his dispute with the captain, to him killing the captain, everything was recorded clearly.

Even the conversation between the two people can be heard clearly——

"What are you going to do? This is the cockpit, you can't just come in!" the captain yelled.

"I entered the cockpit, because next, I will replace you and become the captain." The man said with a smile.

"What do you mean?"

"Your Zhou family has dominated the shipping market for too long. Even if you eat meat, you must allow others to drink some soup. After today, the glory of the Zhou family will forever be a thing of the past."

"Stop! The route is fixed. No one can predict what will happen after it deviates. Do you want to kill everyone?"

"You guessed it right! Only if you die can the plan succeed!"

……

This video, fished out of the sea by a water ghost, became the key to the Zhou family's comeback.
