Chapter 321: The Current Situation in the Soviet Union

Fortunately, there is a lot of wine in the cellar of the manor, and in order to celebrate the return of Wang Zhen and Miyuki Aso, Zheng Yan also took out some of the red wine that had been treasured in the cellar for decades, and also moved a box of Moutai brought from Huaxia.

"Zheng Yan, as the master here, do you want to say a few words first?"

Hearing Tang Hao's words, everyone turned their eyes to Zheng Yan. Although Zheng Yan is the youngest, he is the most experienced in handling many things, whether it is Tang Hao or Wang Zhen, even Liu Wei has regarded Zheng Yan as the whole team.

"It's not an outsider, there's something to talk about, come, let's have a drink first, and welcome Brother Zhen and Miyuki back. After everyone sat down, Zheng Yan said with a wine glass.

It was rare to get together, everyone was very happy, the men poured a glass of wine, and the women, except for Lisa and Wan Qiwen, who were pregnant, also drank something meaningful.

"Brother Zhen, you and Miyuki have been in the Soviet Union for so long, can you tell us what the Soviet Union is like? I heard in the capital, the Soviet Union is poor now, and you can bring something from our country and come back with a lot of things. ”

"Someone even exchanged a train of instant noodles for a plane, is this true? If it is true, we will also have a whole plane, and we will envy Zheng Yan all day long for having a plane. ”

It was not only Tang Hao who was curious about the Soviet Union, but everyone was probably a little curious except Zheng Yan.

"In fact, the Soviet Union is not poor, and it can even be said that most of the people are relatively rich, but they have money but cannot buy things, especially food and use. ”

"The Soviet Union has always vigorously developed heavy industry and the military, and has not paid much attention to other things, but it has paid some attention to agriculture, but unfortunately most of the Soviet Union is not suitable for growing grain. From the beginning of the seventies, the USSR, with a rapidly growing population, became a pure importer of grain. ”

"If you go to the USSR now, there are long queues everywhere, waiting to buy food and household items, but even then, there are many people who can't buy it, because there are none. This is also the reason why many people with daily necessities and food can be exchanged for cars and planes from the USSR. ”

"Nowadays, the Soviet Union lacks only food and necessities, as long as you have these two things, you can exchange anything in the Soviet Union, including guns and ammunition, aircraft artillery, and even some embargoed military supplies. ”

Wang Zhen is still a little incredulous when it comes to what he saw and heard in the Soviet Union, which has been a superpower alongside the United States for the past few decades, but now, it seems that it could fall at any time.

"If that were the case, wouldn't the Soviet Union starve a lot of people to death?"

I have to say that the focus of men and women is different, in Tang Hao's view, it is not his own country, he only thinks about how to get benefits from it, and the first thing they think of is people's lives.

"I don't know. The people we dealt with this time were all the upper echelons of the Soviet Union, except for high-ranking government officials, who were well-known wealthy businessmen in the Soviet Union, who lacked nothing and could speak better than anyone else. ”

"If you say so, we can really go and drive another plane, and it won't cost much anyway. ”

"Tang Hao, hurry up and stop me. If you really want to buy a plane, just buy it directly from normal channels, but it really doesn't work, I can give you one, don't think about these crooked ways. ”

It is said that in the years before and after the collapse of the Soviet Union, as many as one million people starved to death, although I don't know if it's true or not, but one thing is certain, that is, there are definitely people starving to death. Zheng Yan didn't want to go in and mix blindly, if it weren't for William Rockefeller who had what Zheng Yan wanted, even Zheng Yan in the Tyumen Oilfield didn't want to participate.

"I'm just saying, even if you give me a plane, I won't be able to fly it. Brother Zhen, since the Soviet Union is so chaotic, doesn't their government care? It's okay to talk about cars or something, just like you said about arms, this thing shouldn't be sold casually, right?"

"The government of our country is for the people, and the current government of the Soviet Union is purely for the officials. How do you think the arms came out, and they were not sold to arms dealers by high-ranking officers of the army. ”

"The weapons and equipment that any regiment of them is equipped with are enough to arm a division, and they can't be used at all. Some people sell arms because the state cannot pay them wages and are forced to do so, while others sell arms purely for their own personal gain. When the time came to check it up, they just found an excuse to deal with it, and some people even used the reason of the explosion of the arsenal to hide the truth. ”

"And it's not just the troops that have problems with the Soviet Union, it's also with government officials, who have too many privileges. Although the Soviet Union was very large, there were not many places suitable for human habitation, and in this case, all the scenic spots in the Soviet Union, or the places with the best environment, were occupied by officials. ”

"Not only that, but they also enjoy a series of privileges, such as a special supply network for food and clothing, and the education of the children of officials is also cultivated separately by special educational institutions, not to mention inheritance, high-end villas allocated by the state, etc., which their children can enjoy for life. ”

"I don't know how much I spent on the defense of officials, and I can't calculate it at all. None of this is the most outrageous, their officials have separate bank accounts from which they can withdraw money without restrictions, and in fact the money does not belong to them at all. In a word, the current USSR is rotten to the bone. ”

Wang Zhen's brief words directly refreshed everyone's perception of the Soviet Union.

"I go, how do I hear that this is not like a communist society, this is simply more corrupt than the feudal society of our country in the past. ”

"It's just that I'm glad I wasn't born in the Soviet Union, otherwise this life would have been over. ”

"Okay, it's none of our business anyway, just listen to it. This country should also come to an end, and perhaps it will not be long before there will be no USSR. Today we are to celebrate Brother Zhen and Miyuki, or to have some fun. ”

Although it was none of his business, what he said was still a little heavy, and Zheng Yan simply changed the topic.

Everyone thinks that Zheng Yan is just expressing his feelings, but Liu Wei, he always feels that Zheng Yan's words seem to have some deep meaning, but he didn't delve into it, after all, the Soviet Union is not a small country, and it is impossible to say that there is no none.
