Chapter 66 The Earth

Sooner or later, we will leave this world, and all we will be left behind are posterity and a few gossips that are ridiculous, pitiful, or respectable about our lives.

Li Muye is now curious about what kind of gossip Li Zhonghua can leave behind. In order to find out more about the details, he decided to move to Sauron's house. The people in this place were very xenophobic, and Sauron resisted at first, on the grounds that his wife would not agree. Sauron's wife, Natasha, is a typical Yakutic woman, with the body and appetite of a she-bear, and at the same time caring for her family like a she-wolf, but treating her children as docile and gentle as a doe.

There is no food to grow in this place, and the traditional food structure of the local area is mainly meat. The most common are raw frozen fish, horse meat, and reindeer meat.

Their family is considered middle-class in the city, and they always have raw frozen fish made from whitefish. Horse meat is the main daily staple food, and the grain consists of bags of cereal and dry bread, which can be eaten about three times a week to enrich the nutritional structure. And the reindeer meat is used to entertain the most distinguished guests.

Li Muye is going to live for a month first, and Sauron is worried that his wife Natasha will not agree. Li Muye said, I ordered people to prepare a lot of flour and eggs, as well as a few boxes of dried vegetables, fruits, canned beef, and of course, the best vodka. Directly transported from Moscow by plane, it was enough for a hundred people to eat until the summer. Petrovich they left some of them, and the rest would have taken a long time if it was just me and Lao Cui to eat.

When Sauron heard this, he immediately expressed a warm welcome.

What made Lao Cui particularly happy was that Sauron's family had five Caucasian dogs. On weekdays, it is used to pull sleds to transport children to school, and it is also used for hunting and protecting the homeland. As soon as the fully armed and skilled old Cui arrived at this house, he got into a fight with the five dogs and Sauron's three bear sons.

Natasha Che's raw frozen fish fillets taste great and are served with top-quality vodka and precious black caviar, which definitely complements each other. The reindeer meat was bought by Li Muye with flour in exchange for the Daur people, cut into thick slices of meat and grilled over a charcoal fire, served with sauces and seasonings, and the taste was particularly delicious and pleasant.

The Sauron family was more interested in the canned food and flour that Li Muye had brought. Fragrant bread is served in unlimited quantities, and delicious canned fruit can be eaten openly, which can only be enjoyed at the banquet at Mr. Anasayev's house.

Almost overnight, Li Muye and Lao Cui became distinguished and close friends of the Sauron family.

Once you become friends, there are some things that are convenient to say.

Nominally, Li Muye came to inspect the mining industry under the name of the Erjin Mining Company. According to Solon, although the mining company owns abundant reserves, due to the limitations of natural climatic conditions, the mining efficiency is extremely low and the cost is surprisingly high. The Agribusiness Bank bought Erjin only in response to the call of the state, not because it was optimistic about the gold and diamond reserves here. So the cost was very low.

Because of the low output, the mine is basically in a situation where it cannot make ends meet. In order to feed the more than 1,000 employees of the mine over the years, tens of millions of rubles were invested every year. When Gurnov was in charge, he wanted to put the Erjin mining company up for sale, but due to federal law, he never met a suitable successor.

In order to save costs, the mine has been shut down for two years, and the Agricultural and Industrial Bank has provided only a small amount of money for the maintenance and operation of equipment and office areas in the past two years, and the workers have long since closed down and gone home to find another way out. Because of this, he will put on a stinky face to his new boss when they meet for the first time.

Li Muye is still not sure of the real purpose of Chen Miao's deliberate efforts to get himself here, according to the analysis of the current situation, from a purely economic point of view, the investment value of this place is really not very high. If he were just a simple businessman, he would definitely not hesitate to continue to implement the policy left by Gurnov.

Regarding the person of Anasayev, Li Muye only mentioned it tentatively, which immediately attracted Natasha's strong attention. According to her, Anasayev is supreme in the city, and even in the territory of the entire Republic of Yakutia. He was the high priest of shamanism, a merchant who helped the Yakuts connect to the world, and he used his personal wealth to support the Yakuts' needs in terms of medical care, education, etc......

Twenty years ago, the total population of Yakutsk was less than 100,000, and the entire Yakutia region had a population of only 400,000.

When Anasayev came here, he brought with him the Americans, the Japanese, the Israelis and the British, who came here to survey the land, study the natural creatures, bring information from the outside world, and bring wealth. As the son-in-law of the Yakuts, Anasayev broke the simple blockade and plundering pattern of the former Soviet Union on the land, and built a bridge between the land and the world civilization.

Eleven years ago, the Republic of Yakutia became an independent state under the CIS. Although ethnic Russians became the first president, the Yakuts remained the masters of the country. Anasayev never held any position in the government, but he built a solid relationship with the top of the federal hierarchy with his business skills, and effectively controlled the land with the business empire he had built.

He is the world's largest furrier, supplying 3 percent of the Japanese yosheng market, and the diamond mine founded by him and the federation and helmed by him owns the largest diamond mine in the Yakutia region, providing 80 percent of the Russian federation's diamond market. Every year in June, during the Ensakh festival, he selects the best talents from among the young Yakuti people and devotes a large amount of money to support them to study abroad.

Natasha and her family talked about Anasayev endlessly, and it seemed that they could not finish talking about this man for three days and three nights. Li Muye already knew that what he left behind on this land was not just gossip, but truly epic legends.

The next question is, if this person has so much, why has he ignored his own children who have remained in the country for more than 20 years?

The answer is not available from Natasha.

••••••

Three months have passed, and Chen Miao still has not made the next order, but he has begun to blatantly meddle in the affairs of the Makino Group.

The farms in Pisk have already begun spring planting, and the storage base and supermarket in Kyiv in conjunction with Kirichenko have also begun to operate. Lao Chu was in Moscow, and the trading company under the Makino Group, with the secret support of Timov, successively won the import and export trade quotas of a variety of controlled commodities, from China, to Russia, to the storage base in Ukraine, and finally to the entire Eastern European region, forming a stable trade channel prototype.

Although Li Muye stayed in Yakutsk, his wealth increased day by day. He knew very well in his heart that he was only a twenty-three-year-old young man, and if it weren't for the complicated factors behind it, he might still be chasing the dream of wealth in the coal city at this moment. Everything he has now, except for the money he got from the initial game with Li Qizhi, the rest of the increased wealth is almost completely led by Chen Miao.

During this time, Li Muye tried not to think about other things, and only went all out to understand Anasaryev. What the Sauron family can provide is well known, but what Li Muye needs to know is what only a very few people have mastered. For this, he thought of Timov, who was far away in Moscow.

This cheap brother-in-law has been engaged in intelligence work for many years, and even if he has not been in contact with Anasayev himself, some of his former colleagues have studied the history of Anasayev. Before this, Li Muye still had a trace of luck in his heart, imagining that there might really be two people in the world who looked exactly the same but were not related to each other, and they happened to be met by Li Zhonghua. However, the news from Moscow shattered this illusion.

It was in the early eighties that Anasayev came to the Yakutia region from China. And initially it was with the help of the Americans that it gained a foothold there. In the early days of the CIS, Yakutia existed as an economically backward and politically disorganized region, and the people who initially established order were actually four countries from the Western camp. At that time, Moscow had too many directions to take into account in order to take into account this wild land with a population of only a few hundred thousand.

Even now, the Republic of Yakutia, as an administrative region under federal rule, is still dominated by the Russian Federation. The military security of this country is nominally based on the military exclusive framework of the Russian Federation, but in essence, this land is in no way suitable for any army to fight. Whether it is ground propulsion or high-altitude bombing, there is no point at all. Whoever wants to conquer this place once and for all can only rely on bread and vodka.

After the collapse of the former Soviet Union, it became a politically chaotic area, and economic construction came to a complete standstill. The introduction of the Western economy by Anasayev saved the precarious Yakut nation. became the de facto owner of the land. There has been controversy on this point in Moscow, and pro-Western politicians believe that it can be preserved as a pilot and a channel of communication. The hawkish politicians of the federation believe that the federation should take a hard line and take a thunderbolt to kill this man, encourage ethnic Russians to emigrate there, and let the rich land belong to the federation completely.

Timov was personally inclined to the opinion of hawkish politicians, and he told Li Muye that Westerners simply do not have the conditions and sincerity to develop there. They value only a few special resources and political benchmarking significance. Only the Russian Federation and true friends deserve everything there. This true friend, of course, is referring to China, which has the greatest potential to succeed Russia in front of the Americans.

According to Timov, hawkish politicians in the federal government have actually assassinated Anasayev more than once. But it all failed. This man is as if he is really able to listen to the good and evil voices of all things in the world, as the legend says. Whether it was sniper assassination, poisoning and plotting, and even a few times using fighter planes to kill him, but each time he seemed to be able to predict the danger in advance and avoid the assassination in time.

The process of getting to know that man is like seeing flowers in a fog, and you can never be sure that what you see is completely real.

Winter in Siberia is long, but there will always be a time when the ice fog will dissipate. Li Muye waited for that moment to come.

Small yellow flowers are beginning to appear on the meadows on the banks of the Lena River, the winter ice fog is about to dissipate, and the annual festival of Ensach is approaching. The Soren family received an invitation letter from the Yakutia State Power Information Company to participate in the event, and invited Li Muye to participate in the Ensakh Festival by name......
