Wang Zhen returned not long after leaving, and the other party said that he would convey Zheng Yan's words to Grachev. Originally, Zheng Yan thought that even if they met, it would be arranged tomorrow, but Grachev was even more anxious than Zheng Yan imagined, and rushed over that night.

Grachev also seemed to understand that there were too many shady things in such a meeting, so he did not bring many people, only the necessary guards, and deliberately dispersed the guards at the time of the meeting, after all, it was a Russian chassis, and he did not have to worry about his own safety at all.

"General Grachev, it's not easy to see you, but fortunately, I did. ”

Although Grachev is the head of the Russian army, Zheng Yan doesn't care at all, in Zheng Yan's opinion, he is the other party's "God of Wealth". In addition, after being hung out for a few days, Zheng Yan's tone of speech was not friendly.

"Mr. Zheng, I'm very sorry, but you should understand that there are too many things to deal with in Russia these days, and I can't do anything about it. Another thing I'm curious about is that Mr. Zheng is a businessman and I'm a soldier, so why did Mr. Zheng meet me?"

If it were someone else, Grachev might be angry, but in the face of Zheng Yan, he had nothing to do. In Russia, Grachev can be said to be powerful, but this has nothing to do with Zheng Yan, and he is well aware of the power of capital.

"General Grachev, the wise don't talk darkly, and you must know the purpose of my visit to Russia this time, let alone why I want to meet you. ”

The reason why Grachev was able to become defense minister several levels in a row was entirely because of Yeltsin's support, and what he paid was his loyalty to Yeltsin, and it was this loyalty that became the key to his safe passage of his tenure as defense minister.

In some major matters, Grachev absolutely listened to Yeltsin's opinion, so in Zheng Yan's eyes, he was just a middleman, not dispensable, but definitely not that important, so Zheng Yan didn't bother to talk to him.

"Well, I know that Mr. Zheng has some interest in the Varyag aircraft carrier, but you must know that we in Russia are also interested in that aircraft carrier, and it should have belonged to Russia's property, Mr. Zheng thinks I am right?"

Grachev was politically cowardly, but his greed for power was too strong, and he knew very well that in addition to loyalty to Yeltsin, the strength of the army was the foundation of his foothold, so he was no less hungry for the Varyag aircraft carrier than anyone else, especially at a time when Russia's national power was declining.

"General Grachev, let's not say who the Varyag should belong to, at least now it is the property of Ukraine, no one can deny this. If this were not the case, Russia would not have had to negotiate with Ukraine in an attempt to exchange money for ownership of the Varyag. ”

"But then again, the reason why Ukraine wants to sell the Varyag is to turn around the economic situation in their country, and the price naturally cannot be low. With the current state of the Russian economy, do you think Russia can afford it?"

"Take another 10,000 steps back, even if Russia buys the Varyag despite the economic setback, will Russia be able to afford the subsequent construction? Moreover, even if all this is realized, what does this have to do with you, General?"

"If my analysis is correct, the chances that the Varyag will end up belonging to Russia are slim, if not at all. Also, regardless of the final fate of the Varyag, it's none of your business. In that case, why doesn't the general help me get the Varyag?"

Since the collapse of the Soviet Union, Chechnya has been a thorn in Russia's side, but not long ago, in the process of Russia's withdrawal from Chechnya, Grachev left Chechnya with considerable weapons and equipment.

Missiles, planes, tanks, artillery, etc., and Grachev did this only for his own benefit. It was this deal that paved the way for the collapse of the Chechen war a few years later, and it was Grachev himself who suffered the bitter fruits.

Faced with such a person who can sell his country's interests for a little profit, Zheng Yan really can't have a good impression, but thinking about it on the other hand, it is precisely because of the existence of such a person that his plan has the possibility of success.

Grachev also hesitated a little when he heard Zheng Yan's words, and he knew very well in his heart that there were many people in China who were not optimistic about his promotion to defense minister, and many people thought that he had been promoted too quickly and that his work ability had not been fully tempered, so it was difficult for him to be qualified for this lofty post.

Exactly how long he will be in the post of defense minister, Grachev himself is not sure, which is one of the reasons why he will make a lot of money. The uneasiness in his heart, coupled with the greed in his heart, made Grachev think otherwise.

"Mr. Zheng, if we help you in this matter, what can you bring to our country?"

Grachev doesn't care at all about what Russia can get, he only cares about himself, and Zheng Yan certainly understands this. Zheng Yan took out a document from the folder and handed it to Grachev.

"This is the information of a farm in Australia, the general can take a look, and if you like it, it will be my personal gift to you. ”

As a loyal supporter of Yeltsin, Grachev is still very valuable, at least more valuable than Sobchak, so Zheng Yan is also willing to pay more.

Farms are not uncommon in Russia, but Russian farms are basically a wasteland now, and some valuable farms are also owned by owners, and it is not Grachev's turn at all, so Grachev was instantly moved.

"Mr. Zheng, will this gift be too valuable?"

Although he said this, the information about the farm was tightly grasped by Grachev, which made Zheng Yan extremely contemptuous.

"You're welcome, general, this is just a gift, it's nothing. If the general can help me achieve my wish, I will have other expressions. But before that, I still want to meet President Yeltsin, I wonder if the general can help me arrange it?"

Although Zheng Yan understood that as long as he was willing to wait, Yeltsin would definitely meet with him, but after coming out for so long, Zheng Yan was already a little impatient, and just wanted to finish the matter as soon as possible and then return to China.

In addition, for this meeting, Zheng Yan believed that Yeltsin must have known about it, and gave Grachev some instructions, the so-called iron should be struck while it is hot, and there is no need to delay the matter of being able to complete the battle.
