Chapter 588
Ukrainians do not use a separate meal system for eating, but their family uses a separate meal system, everyone has a few dishes in front of them, everyone only cares about the dishes in front of them, Liu Yi eats very slowly, he doesn't understand the etiquette of eating in Ukraine, how others get it, he gets it, of course, he is not a nobleman, he naturally does not have to be so particular about eating, he is quite skilled in using knives and forks.
Valki and Mikhail would always raise their glasses and remind everyone to have a toast together, Liu Yi accompanied them to drink slowly, and soon went down to five or six glasses of wine, this wine is very good, Liu Yi has a headache, this stuffy wine is also very boring to drink, the Ukrainian pig's trotters are too tired, Liu Yi barely finished eating one, and the rest of the dishes are slowly wiped out.
Finally finished eating and came to the living room, the women went to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and Liu Yi accompanied the two of them, "Liu, sit down." Valki invited Liu Yi to sit down, "Let's talk." Liu Zhi nodded and sat on the sofa, Valki sat in the center, looking at Liu Yi, "Liu, what do you think of the current Ukraine?"
Liu Yi looked at Valky, "It's too chaotic, it's too chaotic, there are too many forces of all kinds, and the economic development of the whole country is too lagging behind, there is Russia watching next to it, and the relationship with the United States is not so good that they are willing to protect us, so it's a dilemma." "Liu Yi doesn't know much about Ukraine, he just hopes that the various groups will not affect his business, and as for other aspects, he has no interest in taking care of them.
Valki nodded, "You signed an agreement with the military for the supply of warships, when will you be able to start construction?" Mikhaif looked at Liu Yi?
"I don't know, it seems that the design drawings haven't come out yet, and the military shouldn't be able to afford this kind of warship. Liu Yi smiled, "If the military can't pay, then this warship may be difficult to deliver." Liu Yi was not afraid of offending them.
"We are facing a strong enemy, if you don't have better equipment, you will be bullied, your factories will also have difficulties, we are complementary to each other, providing the military with better warships, can make your business in Ukraine more stable. β
Liu Yi smiled, "Maybe." β
"Our country now lacks an iron-blooded leader, and it is not appropriate for Ukraine to change the current weak situation, instead of relying on the United States all day long, or eye-to-eye with Russia. Mikhail's words, Liu Yi did not agree very much, but he did not intend to argue about this matter, the leaders of Ukraine are all handsome guys and beauties, very eye-catching, but they are useless, and in the end they all brought the country to an abyss, and the navy even had a whole fleet surrender to Russia, because Ukraine really has no money, and the poor can't do anything.
"All right, Mikhail. Valki stopped his son from continuing, "It's not that it doesn't matter if there is a strong leader or not, but we need a stronger guarantee, and there are too few of us assigned to our army, and the army can't even feed people, and it's too difficult to develop." "Valki is much more accurate than Mikhail, he has no money, and everything is in vain," Mikhail is a major and serves on the best missile frigates at the moment. β
Liu Zhi nodded a little and understood what he meant, "The most important thing is to let the soldiers have money and be loyal to the country, and there are other ethnic minorities in the country at present, as well as Russia."
People, and you Slavs, it is somewhat difficult to manage, and it is very difficult to make the country develop, agriculture accounts for 20% of the country's output value, plus the military industry, basically occupies half, there is no light industry, there is no other industry, the service industry is not developed enough, everything is in vain. Liu Yi tried to talk to them about the economy, "If we can reduce the army, provide more jobs, and let the people have money, I think we can make the country stronger, and simply rely on military strength to solve many fundamental problems." β
"But first of all, we have to have it, so that we have the right to speak. Valki stopped what Liu Yi was about to say.
"If there is, then the real concern is that the two superpowers are more dangerous for us. Liu Yi shook his head, two big countries cannot let Ukraine develop. "As long as we do something related to the military industry, the two countries will be particularly nervous, and we must first block the source of the economy and production materials. Liu Yiyi didn't share their optimism.
The two of them looked at Liu Yi, and the relationship between everyone did not seem to be so harmonious, and Valki also found that they couldn't seem to reach an agreement with Liu Yi, Valki looked at Liu Yi, "It is difficult to maintain a country without loyalty, our country is poor and needs urgent development, and in the face of this Russian threat, we also need to be particularly tough, plus the turmoil in the adjacent Crimea region, the country is already in chaos." In this predicament, strong leaders and strong military strength are needed to back up and guarantee. β
Liu Yi did not continue to refute, but listened to Valki's words, he didn't plan to refute anymore, he could disagree with his father-in-law, but he couldn't make him uncomfortable, Mikhail looked at Liu Yi and didn't continue, and then said, "If you control the country's economy, coupled with the control of the army, you can really change the country, and everyone must have higher ideals." Liu Zhi nodded, his eldest brother is a handsome guy, he may be too radical, "If you can't make all ethnic groups obey the country's arrangement through high-pressure policies, then the country will be scattered." "Liu Zhi nodded a little, high pressure will only increase more resistance, it doesn't mean much, but the military strength must be strong.
"Liu, if the warships you have developed for the country are delivered normally, then our strength at sea will at least double. Valki looked at Liu Yi and said seriously.
"Yes, we are also speeding up research, the warships will be stronger from generation to generation, and the improved ones will be delivered in advance, and they will slowly get better and better, which will take time, and it will take time for the entire Admiralty to cooperate, especially the military, and we also need more money to develop. Liu Yi smiled, the new warship can already be delivered, but Liu Yi has no such plans, the early experiments must be handed over to Ukraine, and the later deliveries are all for various countries, there are so many research institutes in their hands, business is the most important, grasp the economic lifeline of the country, and soon master the military, his work is already developing, although Valki is now called Rear Admiral, but there is no money, he can actually call the shots There should not be much place, with their own strength, they may now have a certain amount of powerγ
"What about missiles? Aren't you taking in a lot of new research institutes?"
"It's being improved and will be used in the future
Those who launch new missiles will have stronger guidance capabilities and will also have stronger power. β
"Liu, as long as you can continue to provide us with better preparations and military spending, I think many troops are willing to protect your industry. Valki said eagerly.
Liu Yi glanced at Valki and Mihaif, he suddenly understood why the two sisters wanted to take him home, it turned out that there was a reason, and why Valki turned a blind eye to the affairs of his two daughters in the first place, they need very strong power, and military power is naturally a way to gain power, and without money, everything is in vain, and money is only available to themselves, their family must represent a wave of power, and they need their own money, but they can not bring future benefits to themselves? What if these forces could really work for themselves? It would be better if the power was under their own control, Valki and Mikhail were both fanatical war maniacs, and they were not fit to be presidents, but it might be beneficial to give them hope, and to divide them would be more profitable. "It's better that way. Liu Zhi nodded, Liu Yi said in Ukrainian not badly, "After all, the company is managed by the upstream company, but I will strengthen your military strength through other means, but the troops must be counted as my mercenaries, I need these forces to protect myself, and use various equipment to offset the cost of employment." Liu Yi said lightly, "I can make the delivery to the navy faster." β
"If you are willing to support Mikhail to become a politician in a higher position, it can help you even more. Valki looked at Liu Yi, and Liu Yi also looked at the two fathers and sons.
Liu Yi smiled, "Too high fees will be regulated, but I can still do it with tens of millions of dollars." Liu Yi's words made their eyes light up, using 10 million as a fee to run an organization is already a lot of money, an organization needs a lot of money to develop, but 10 million is a relatively large investment, this time let Liu Yi understand one thing, in Ukraine, money is really a good thing, "I look forward to Mikhaiv can get a higher political status, this requires a team, everyone's annual operating costs are as high as hundreds of millions of dollars, my money is probably not enough." β
"We need to go step by step, first for the governor, then - into the ministries of the country, and finally to the presidency, the process can take five to ten years, but we still have time, we can afford to wait. "Valki sees it very clearly, things have to come step by step, but for Liu Yi, five years is enough for his team to lay out the entire country, the speed of construction and development is definitely faster than other places, now the shipyard develops, the surrounding industries will develop, the economy of this place will develop rapidly, this is an effect, and their own companies stationed in Ukraine will master more industries.
"Okay, then we'll make up our minds, and I'll give you better support. Liu Zhi nodded, this is not much different from his original layout, but Mikhail must not be able to become president, his forces represent a kind of confrontation, whether it is for Ukraine or other countries It is a very dangerous situation, it is enough for him to put the people he needs in the position of need, and Mihaiv also represents the interests of some people.
