Chapter 324: Great Temptation

It was still in Yang Dongxu's study, but this time it was no longer Natasha sitting opposite Yang Dongxu, but with a smile on his face, he looked like a gentle scholar. But if you taste it carefully, you feel that the smile is a little treacherous, and Ivan.

Before, Ivan sent Natasha to say that he would taste Yanjing's food and go back, but Yang Dongxu didn't take it seriously at all. And the facts also proved that Ivan was simply looking for an excuse to leave at that time, but Natasha just reached an agreement with Yang Dongxu yesterday to leave Yanjing. Ivan came straight to the door on the back foot.

"Aren't you afraid that I'll kick you out with a broom?" Yang Dongxu stared at Ivan with an unkind expression.

"I'm good friends with your godfather, and you won't suffer if you call me grandpa. Ivan looked at Yang Dongxu with a smile on his face, and his palm kept rubbing against the handle of the Taishi chair under his buttocks.

Over the years, with the continuous cooperation with Yang Dongxu, Ivan has gradually collected a lot of antiques in China, in addition to the Soviet Union and Europe that are more in line with his aesthetics. Especially in the past two years, the price of Chinese antiques has been crazy growth, and Ivan almost regards the collection of Chinese antiques as an investment.

So as long as he has the opportunity to enter Yang Dongxu's study, his little eyes are always thieves. After all, in addition to some more sensitive things in the basement, the things in Yang Dongxu's study are as small as an ornament on the table, as large as tables, chairs and benches are undoubtedly not high-quality products, and even the teacups used for drinking tea are blue and white porcelain.

"Then you feel that you owe me a junior in your heart when you return this time, and your conscience is ready to share some benefits with me?" Yang Dongxu rolled his eyes at Ivan who directly pulled himself to his godfather's generation and sat in the position of elder.

"You know that my country is not at peace right now, and my life is a little precarious right now. As for the money, you have more money than I do now......"

"Stop, stop, stop, I didn't say this, I have something to say, I have nothing to say, please have nothing to do, I'm still waiting to deal with it. Seeing that Ivan was shameless and began to pretend to be pitiful, Yang Dongxu knew that if he took it in front of Natasha, he could still get some benefits from Ivan, and if he missed this point, it might be nothing.

"Don't feel so aggrieved, you didn't suffer this time, did you?" Seeing that Yang Dongxu really had the posture of driving people with a broom, Ivan stopped teasing him.

"You know my bottom line. Yang Dongxu glanced at Ivan.

He did not suffer a loss in this cooperation, not only did he not suffer a loss, but also made a profit. But this is not the reason why Ivan sold himself directly.

"I know the scruples, but it's just a simple collaboration. Besides, when you grow up in the future, you will definitely need some friends with status, which is the foundation you must have if you want to go up. Ivan still had a smile on his face, but the smile was no longer an inner cunning, but a serious one.

Yang Dongxu's worries were clear in his heart, so he never asked Yang Dongxu to accept some more sensitive things. This time, it only touched Yang Dongxu's bottom line and brought someone with a more sensitive identity, but Ivan knew the depth of it very well, so he brought someone to the door.

"It's more troublesome to have anything to do with a politician than it is to be with a business fraudster. Yang Dongxu's brows furrowed.

No matter how active he has been in the business field over the years, he has always maintained a bottom line, that is, he is not involved in politics, even if he has to be involved, he will pick himself clean and will not be contaminated with anything, because he knows in his heart that with his small body, any small turmoil is enough for him to break his bones.

"Don't worry, it's really not that much trouble this time. Ivan reassured.

"What are you looking for me when you come back?" Yang Dongxu glanced at Ivan, not dwelling on this matter.

Just because he expressed his dissatisfaction just now, he was drawing a line for Ivan. He was very unhappy to tell him such a thing, and if there was something similar in the future, the cooperation between the two would be over. So now that Ivan has understood what he meant, Yang Dongxu naturally won't say more.

"Is there any hope for the current Soviet Union?" asked Ivan with great seriousness.

"I'm not a god, who do I ask if you ask me?" Yang Dongxu glanced sideways at Ivan.

"It looks hopeless. Ivan sighed and collapsed in his chair, as if he had suddenly aged ten.

Yang Dongxu's brows were tightly locked, his eyes were staring at Ivan, and his brain was running rapidly. Ivan's sudden appearance must have scared him a little.

It was not that he was frightened by Ivan's preparation and prediction of the end of the Soviet Union, but the meaning of Ivan's words, as if he had received some information from him, and he had a feeling that he had been stripped naked in an instant.

"We've been making a final plan for a long time, aren't we?" Ivan didn't seem to notice Yang Dongxu's strangeness, and said as if talking to himself.

This made Yang Dongxu even more confused, he didn't know what the old fox Ivan really saw from himself. Or is it just a feeling.

The study fell silent.

I don't know how long it took, when Yang Dongxu's brows and brain were running rapidly, and his brows were wrinkling tighter and tighter, and he felt that he didn't feel distressed. Ivan, who seemed to have been struck off his spine suddenly, seemed to have come back to his senses.

"Do you want to cooperate again?" the eyes of Ivan, who had returned to his soul, flashed with a slight madness.

This madness is not a repressed outburst of human desperation, nor is it the hysteria of gamblers. It's a person who looks at a lot of things that may be divided by others, and suddenly bursts out with an incomparably greedy desire for possession.

"You know, I hate trouble. Yang Dongxu looked at Ivan very seriously, and the two of them looked at each other.

"Risk does not equal trouble. ”

"But I can draw an equal sign here. The thought of whether to completely break off with Ivan slowly rose in Yang Dongxu's heart.

In the past, he still cooperated with Ivan even though he knew that something might be involved, because he needed a help from the Soviet Union too much. Now whether it's money, or the talent you want, you even spend a lot of money to buy a lot of technology that may have golden eggs back. His need on the Soviet side was no longer necessary, nor was it as urgent as it once was.

So if he and Ivan can still maintain the tacit understanding they had before, then it's okay to work together once in a while. But now Ivan didn't know what stimulation he had received, and it was obvious that something was wrong, and even such a deep old fox had become a little crazy, which made him a little hairy on his back.

"Several of my old friends have been taken to court for a number of reasons, some of them ...... has been put to death. It seemed that he had read something from Yang Dongxu's gaze, and Ivan said slowly.

Yang Dongxu didn't say anything and still looked at Ivan, but his brain was running at a fast pace. But after searching through all the memories of the Soviet Union in his mind, he still did not find a single clue. After all, in his previous life, he lived at the bottom of the society, and many things were just to be lively, and some insider shady things were not something he could know.

"I may be a little greedy for money, but those who love the country as much as I do, their patriotism is not a trace of dirtiness, but they ......" Ivan began to have tears in his eyes.

Yang Dongxu still didn't speak, but his brain was quickly calculating. Judging from the information expressed by Ivan, it is clear that the interior of the Soviet Union is even worse than it is now revealed, and even the killing of those who may be heroes and even important people has been done.

When he had looked at some international history before, he had seen it in the history of the Soviet Union after the Second World War. After the end of World War II, many of the Soviet Union's most successful generals and even marshals did not fall under the enemy's guns, but died at the hands of their own people. And what is happening now, I don't know if there will be any historical records for future generations to see.

"If you work together again, you will have inexhaustible wealth as long as you succeed, and even become the richest person in the world. Ivan stared at Yang Dongxu's gaze and said.

At this moment, Yang Dongxu's gaze fluctuated, although he had his own bottom line, but in the end, he was just a mortal. When faced with an incomparably great temptation, it will also be tempting, even impulsive.

However, whether it is heartwarming or impulsive, Yang Dongxu is like a little fox in an unfamiliar environment, although he is full of curiosity about everything, he will never go deeper, and he will not even test anything, just watch and observe from afar.

"The economy of the USSR could collapse. Ivan added another huge weight.

When it comes to the economy of the Soviet Union, many people in later generations have no sense of existence. When people think of the Soviet Union, the first thing that comes to mind is the stupid and crude military equipment of the fighting nation. As for the economy, it seems like a joke.

But the current Soviet Union is a world superpower, and even if its economic strength is inferior to that of the United States, it is not comparable to China or even Europe now. If he makes a fortune when it collapses, Ivan is really not joking when he says that he is the richest man in the world, after all, this is the economy of a superpower.

"The cake is too big to die, and if the union barely eats the cake, it is estimated that it will not be able to enjoy it. Yang Dongxu adhered to the last shred of reason in his heart.

Ivan's offer was tempting, but also crazy. With Yang Dongxu's current capital, even if Ivan is added, he is just a small fish and shrimp that can't make any waves.

It is true that finding someone to unite can cut a bigger cake, but that is equivalent to being on the blacklist of Russia in the future. He didn't want to take a group of bodyguards with him wherever he went in the future, and he would be taken care of by the KGB from time to time.

At the same time, he has a reborn memory, and he is good at the direction of investment, but this kind of pure economic operation, he is not as good as a newcomer who has just started working.

"What if I choose the same cooperation model as Natasha?" Ivan asked unhurriedly as he looked at Yang Dongxu.

This question made Yang Dongxu's heartbeat, which was not easy to suppress, surge again.

The cooperation model with Natasha is very simple, that is, Yang Dongxu provides the investment direction, and then Natasha finds someone to invest by herself, and then Yang Dongxu will get a commission for every money he earns, and the two of them cleverly avoided this topic as for the failure of the investment.

This kind of cooperation is currently beneficial to both, and the benefit to Yang Dongxu is naturally very risky, after all, he just provided an investment direction and did nothing.

For Natasha's own money, she is naturally relieved to operate it herself. At the same time, although she has some confidence in Ivan's introduction, it is impossible for either her or the people behind her to believe Yang Dongxu 100%, so she came all the way to find it, just to have one more basket of eggs, so this kind of cooperation is very satisfactory to both of them.

If this cooperation model is also applied to Ivan's side......

Although he did not understand pure economic operations, he understood the specific direction of the future development of Soviet politics, and a country's economy is undoubtedly inextricably linked to the economy.
