Chapter 50: Clesico's Winter I

On the last night of '98, a grand banquet was held at a manor house on the eastern outskirts of the capital of the Northern Russian Republic, Christian, where many high-ranking officials and celebrities of the Northern Russian Republic gathered to celebrate the birth of the country's second president.

A short man came to the stage, and this person was none other than Kimi Viking, who had taken over the presidency of the Republic of North Russia from Nikolavich, and he raised his glass and said: "It is a great honor for me to be here today for this banquet, and I have sworn to all the people of North Russia in the afternoon, and I will firmly carry out my vow to the end." ”

Kimi Viking continued: "Of course, I would like to thank all of you here, because I am the president of North Russia, not an emperor, let alone a dictator, and my dream is to restore North Russia to the status of a world-class power that we used to have, so that everyone here can become citizens of a great power, so that whether it is to defend the democracy of the North Russian Republic or to revive the country's economy, it is inseparable from the joint efforts of all of you!"

With the new president's speech, the warmest applause suddenly broke out below, but this applause did not last long, because after a while, another person entered the banquet hall, and as this person entered, the applause on the scene slowly weakened.

This person was dressed in a purple evening dress, a pair of high heels clattered on the ground, she was a woman, and she was a very beautiful woman, and the appearance of this woman caused an uproar at the scene.

"Oh my God, I'm not mistaken, that's Lady Karelina, the godmother of our great republic? Isn't she supposed to be supporting Mr. Nikolavich? Why is she back at Kimi's Viking banquet?"

Someone in the crowd exclaimed, but his exclamation was quickly met with the eyes of others: "Do you really not understand or are you pretending to be confused here?" You also know that Ms. Karelina is the godmother of our North Russian Republic, and more than half of the country's financial and oil industries are under her control, and you also know that Mr. Nikolavich practiced an oligarchy before, and she is an oligarch among oligarchs, such a person must have mastered the deepest political direction, and now that Kimi Viking has come to power, what is so strange about her coming? ”

Others were discussing: "Ms. Karelina is so powerful, but I have heard that she is still unmarried, and I don't know what kind of man can be worthy of her? ”

Today's presence is either rich or expensive, everyone naturally knows Karelina, she walked in, people took the initiative to give her a way, Karenina held her head high, proudly walked in front of people, everyone looked at her with respectful eyes, even the newly sworn in President Kimi Viking hurriedly ran down from the stage and arrived in front of Karerina.

"Dear Lady Karrelina, welcome!" Kimi Viking said to her, holding up her glass.

Karelina smiled slightly, brought a glass of wine from the waiter beside her, and gestured to Kimi Viking: "Congratulations to Mr. Kimi Viking on his appointment as President of North Russia, and I hope that our Republic of North Russia can reach a higher level under the leadership of Mr. Kimi Viking." ”

Karenina took a sip of the wine in her glass, but Kimi Viking shook her head and said, "Miss Karelina, I don't think this is good news for me, but a pressure and spur on me personally. ”

Kimi Viking also took a sip of wine after speaking, Karelina smiled lightly and said: "I have a certain understanding of Mr. Kimi Viking's way of governing, as well as your attitude towards some conglomerates and financial oligarchs, but I only have one sentence, no matter what your decision-making is, I don't want to see another Chrisco Winter, and we North Russians can't afford another Chrisco Winter." ”

Although it was just a light sentence, it made everyone present subconsciously shudder, the catastrophe of the North Russian Republic, even those of them with a very high social status are still fresh in their memories.

When Kimi Viking heard this, his eyes immediately flashed with pain, and he said: "Miss Karelina, you may not know that, as someone who has experienced it firsthand, I myself hate the oligarchs, who almost ruined the country! ”

Kimi Viking patted her chest and assured Karelina, her eyes full of determination.

In the crowd, a child who had come to the banquet with his parents asked his father what Chrisco's winter was, which was heard by Karelina, who replied in place of the child's father: " Crist's Winter was a catastrophe that was born in this capital ten years ago, in that catastrophe, the whole country was almost bankrupt, people couldn't survive, children as old as you were going to be sold, and those days were worse than the hardest and hardest winter we had here, so we have been calling that time Crist's Winter since then. ”

"It wasn't really winter, was it really that miserable?" asked the child, curiously.

"It was not winter, but it was worse than the real winter, a misery that all those who have not experienced it can never imagine, and a pain that we, the Republic of North Russia, will never want to recall. ”

Karelina said this, and it was true, but in fact, there was still a word in her heart that she did not say, that was the winter of Christian, which was also her best memory, and the one that she could not forget for the rest of her life, so that whether she was the most successful businessman in the Northern Russian Republic or the godmother of the Northern Russian Republic, she did not marry him.

Because for Karelina, there is no more trustworthy man in this world than him......

Rewind the clock to May 1, 10 years ago, a very important day to celebrate the victory of a certain struggle, and when demonstrations were set off at Europa 6 to commemorate this day, there was no movement in the red center of the world in Chrisco.

However, this is not that the people or groups here do not want to commemorate, but it is really that everyone's situation is very bad, and when everyone is happy, no one has time to commemorate any holidays.

The temperature in Crisco in May has warmed up significantly, the sun hangs in the sky, and the golden sunlight shines on everyone's body, but the people on the streets of Crisco can't feel even a trace of warmth, all they can feel is the coldness in their hearts.

The North Russian department store is the largest shopping mall in Chrisko and even the entire Soviet Union, as the only best shopping mall on the planet that can compete with the United States, it should be a complete range of goods, but on this day people here are lined up, countless Krisko and the surrounding North Russian citizens, they are crowded here, everyone raised their arms and shouted inside.

"Hurry up ahead, okay? Or you can buy it quickly, and get out of here as soon as you finish buying, don't crowd here and blind my eyes...... Don't squeeze the people in the back! I like to squeeze forward so much, is there Xiang in front for you to eat?"

Of course, in addition to the scolding from front to back, left and right, more scolding was directed at the store: "What do you mean by this? This was only 30 roubles yesterday, why is it 50 roubles today? Are you robbing money?"

For the scolding of these customers, the mall staff did not disdain at all: "It's the price of fifty, if you have money, you can buy it, if you don't have money, you can go out on the right hand, and I will sue you, now the whole Chrisco is also sold by us here, you have to go to other places, even if you pay eighty rubles, there may not be anyone willing to sell to you, you should also take a good look at the situation on the street outside, there are people who have no money and can't buy things!"

At the moment, the traffic situation here on the street is very bad, and the cars are desperately honking their horns, and they are crawling forward like snails.

The reason for this situation is not that there are a lot of vehicles on Grad Street, but that the entire Grad Street has been occupied by various stalls, and all kinds of cries and cries come and go, as if this is not the most prosperous street in Chrisco, but more like a market in a county in China.

"Sir, come and take a look, this watch is made by a famous watch company, and now the price is at least 10,000 US dollars, but now I am really in a hurry to use the money, 8,000 US dollars, oh no, at most only 4,000 US dollars, I will sell it to you, okay? You ask me who I am? I'm a doctor at the central hospital. ”

"This gentleman, I have a villa in the southern suburbs, as long as you can pay me 100,000 US dollars, the villa is yours, and there is a qiē inside, which is very cheap, I am the manager of the eastern company, I just can't stay here anymore!"

All the people of different status are selling along the street like hawkers at the moment, but the whole street of hawkers, the whole street is selling, who is going to buy it? So a lot of bartering began to appear.

"Friend, do you have salt here? That's great, I hope you can sell me a little, I can pay you rubles, if you don't want rubles I can exchange my beloved barbecue oven with you, this is a good barbecue, you can make the most delicious barbecue with him, God testify, when you see the golden barbecue dripping with oil, you will definitely love the barbecue!"

"Hey, I said you have a problem with your brains? Now that the meat in the mall is almost more expensive than an airplane, I can't afford that damn luxury!"

In addition to the various North Russians who were bartering, many more people were swearing in fear: "What happened to us in the Soviet Union? Aren't we another big country in the world? How did we become like this? We have nothing, why do I feel even more cold in May than in the harsh winter?"
