(Written earlier: the description of the Republic of Tuva is somewhat different from the real one, and some of it is apocryphal, please do not believe it.) Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info)

The reason why Chu Hua didn't follow up when he came to Kizil this time was that the brother and sister hoped that he could handle some things in the consulate now, mainly because of the company's negotiations with the local government. Considering that Pugachev is a very trustworthy person, at the request of the brother and sister, Chu Hua could only leave temporarily, and now the two of them found that if Chu Hua was present now, the matter would be handled very well.

"The two people you're talking about are the two of them?" President Dukbayev was very much like believing that according to common sense how this was possible, he listened to Pugachev's clever talk that it was two big businessmen who were going to make major investments.

"It's just the two of us, I'm from China, I'm the president of China's Dexin Super Times Company, the president of Thailand's Chen's Fruit Company, the president of Thailand's Dexin Investment Company, and the largest shareholder of Pugachev Besika Heavy Industries." Da Ming said his title, this is not his bragging, this is his company.

"Hello." Carambola took a step forward and said, "I am Besika himself, we are not here to play in Tuva, please believe us." Maybe only money and steel can convince you. ”

It's better to say it than to do it, Da Ming pointed to the trucks in the square, this is the company's proof. "Please trust them and trust them, these two children are very extraordinary, and they may bring prosperity to our republic." After listening to Pugachev's words, the president finally stopped doubting it, and he had nothing to lose at the moment, believe it or not.

After all, it was a guest from afar, and the president personally entertained the group.

Seventy percent of the inhabitants of the Republic of Tuva were Tuvans of the Mongol tribe, and it was originally the territory of the Qing Dynasty. The descendants of the golden family of the Mongol Empire lived in China, and most of the Tuvans became citizens of the Russian Federation for historical reasons, but they still had very ambiguous feelings about China.

With a population of 50,000, Kizil looks like a small county town in China. Maybe it can't even reach the county seat, but there are tens of thousands of people in China's large administrative villages. Arriving here at noon, her little stomach was really hungry, considering that the local government would definitely hold a "state banquet" here, and this is indeed a state banquet is a little simple.

It's simple, but it's brutal and wild. It is a small Mongolian republic with a lot of Mongolian food, such as a huge roast lamb's back and a variety of dairy products. There is also some Russian cuisine, and if you are a meat lover, this meal will be absolutely delicious.

Da Ming wanted to talk about business and investment while he was eating, but the president asked to eat first. Da Ming had no choice but to lower his head, his sister looked like a little wolf, and the oil-stained Maha that had been eaten on the side of her mouth hurriedly wiped her with a napkin.

"Are you two brother and sister? What is the mindset of your family? I've heard that you all have the same last name, but you don't look alike. The president asked suddenly.

Da Ming immediately came to his senses and said: "This is a long story, but our family has a certain political status in China, and in fact, we can even talk to the top leader." "Russia doesn't have the habit of talking about business at the wine table, and if it's a matter of discussion, it's better to do it in a special conference hall, but he's in the mood." Tuva was originally part of China, and we are Chinese, so we have very mixed feelings about it. What's more important is that this kind of relationship is more complicated for me, because I have the blood of the descendants of the Qing Kingdom, and my mother is a descendant of the Jurchens. ”

This is very interesting, the president listened attentively, and took advantage of the situation to share some of his ideas. He consciously controlled his speech, but there was one thing he particularly emphasized, that is, this time he came to Tuva as a base to operate. "If I can afford to invest heavily here, Mr. Pugachev and I will recruit workers on a large scale, then we will dig for oil and iron ore, we will move the arsenal here, and we will build the railway."

"Wait!" The president interrupted him and asked, "What did you say?" Digging for oil. My friend, there's no oil here. ”

"Yes!" "As far as I know, Russia's oil reserves are very large, I dare to say that there is oil in Tuva, that is, in the west near the direction of the Tyumen oil depot area, but I heard that there are hot springs and asphalt lakes here. And what is the significance of the appearance of the asphalt lake here, do you know? Its existence means that there must be oil underground. ”

After the "state dinner", the president was in high spirits, and he never associated asphalt lakes with oil. He is the leader of the Tuvan Development Party, which has been working on the development of Tuvan's economy since the collapse of the Soviet Union, but for many years it has been the traditional livestock industry. But animal husbandry is the lowest form of agriculture, and new roads can be built on the income from the sale of yogurt and sheepskins.

At the meeting, Daming personally elaborated on the company's plan, the first step is to acquire steel plants, the second step is to dig oil, and the third step is to build roads.

The president was a little shocked by such a big move, the federal government has hardly done anything to support the Tuvan economy, and the few enterprises in the country are half-dead, if they do this, then the Tuvan economy will definitely take off.

When the president asked if it was appropriate to start with, Daming and Pugachev said that they could do it now, so the next day they negotiated with the boss of Tuva No. 1 Iron and Steel Company, and the director Andosky immediately agreed to Pugachev's acquisition plan for Besika Heavy Industries, and the first step after the acquisition was to pay back wages.

Pugachev's security forces were also involved in protecting the siblings, and the 20-strong bodyguard contingent also temporarily served as temporary workers due to the scarcity of workers. The first batch of workers who came casually moved into the staff dormitory of the steel plant, and after a brief cleaning, they settled down.

The company made a promise, after all, the working environment here is more harsh, so the salary is very high, and the gang spends a lot of money in the city.

The siblings also had a good look in the city like workers, but Pugachev was not so elegant, and he asked Sasha, the captain of the security guard, to accompany the two little darlings. The relationship between the brother and sister and Pugachev was one step closer, and in private the old man said: "You two are very good, if you are my children I will be very happy." "Da Ming doesn't know how to answer, but star fruit she is a child and can speak freely." Then I'll call you Daddy Pugachev! ”

Kyzyl is a large area, and most of the residents' houses are bungalows, with only a few high-rise buildings in the whole process, but it cannot be compared with those buildings with 20 floors in China. As with the general urban structure, the most prosperous things to do here are shopping malls and entertainment venues, Russians love to drink, and the bars here are very lively. Kyzyl is the largest Slavic settlement here, while the large Mongol Tuvans prefer herding.

"Brother, look there, it's a fur buying station." Carambola stretched out his hand and pointed at it, and the two of them immediately went to join in the fun.

Some people speak Russian and some speak Mongolian, and the atmosphere here is very lively. It seems that it is a little too hot, and I saw a big man who seemed to be arguing with an old man with a child. Suddenly, the staff member who seemed to be in charge of buying the furs grabbed the old man's collar and pushed it violently. "As I said a long time ago, this year's sheepskin is 200 rubles a piece, if you don't want to sell it, get out of here!"

The old man struggled to stand up and pat the dust off his body, and his two grandchildren began to cry. "Didn't you say four hundred roubles a piece? Why is it so cheap all of a sudden, and how can I pay off the debt I owe at this price? You don't talk much! The old man still wanted to theorize, and the big man had more radical movements.

Some people persuaded the old man to calm down, and some people urged him to go away quickly. When the big man made another move, Sasha grabbed the arm he was about to shoot. "Stop, he's an old man, and it's not your ability to bully an old man."

Da Ming supported the old man, and quietly stuffed five hundred rubles into his pocket by the way, and the old man avoided it for the time being. On the side of the old man said his bitterness, a white plague in the winter many sheep were frozen to death, in order to restore the population he can only borrow money, borrowed or usury, originally thought that because of the white plague this year's sheepskin purchase price can be higher, with the city buyers are lowering the price. "What should I do, if I can't pay the loan sharks, they will come to me for trouble."

Da Ming's thoughts were a little confused, and he saw that his sister was actually teasing the old man's two grandsons.

Star fruit has sugar in your pocket, and the best gift for a child is candy chocolate. The old man's grandsons, Kikige and Bagan, the elder brother and sister are five years old, stopped crying when they ate the chocolate. The reality is that the Mongolians here all speak Russian outside, and even the two children can speak Russian. Star fruit is the same age as Bagan, so Bagan has a crush on this friend.

The old man said: "My son is out grazing, and today I have brought the child over and sold the sheepskins, and fifteen sheepskins were sold for three thousand roubles, but I owe five thousand roubles." ”

In the end, the old man reluctantly sold the sheepskins, and he didn't bother to continue to reason with these profiteers, because the kind-hearted Ming gave him some rubles.

"Where are you from?"

"I'm from China?"

"Where is China? What kind of country is that? ”

"It's a beautiful country, well, it's warmer than here."

……

Daming asked the old man about the situation, and learned that the old man's name was Hadanbat, an old herdsman, and he said that his father had participated in the Great Patriotic War and finally died in Berlin, but these glories were lost after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Star fruit chatted with the two children on the side, which was considered to be a friend.

The old man said he lived in the western village of Harunka, which was in the direction where the siblings were going to dig for oil. Da Ming asked tentatively: "Do you have any hot springs there, and do you have black bubbling pools?" The old man replied in the affirmative, and Da Ming was overjoyed, and immediately beckoned his sister not to chat with the child anymore.

"There's a valley, we call it the Valley of the Dead Sheep, and there's a little black lake there, which is the kind of situation you said, and there are sheep that fall into it and die."

It's really a huge harvest from a trip, and after Daming's surprise, I hope the old man won't go back for the time being. The old man and his grandson were invited to the steel mill in the city, and the old man was immediately hired as a guide. In the office, Da Ming excitedly shook the old man's hand and said: "Grandpa Hadanbat, now you are our guide for digging oil, and after a while, we will go to your village to dig oil, and this ten thousand rubles is your salary." ”

The old man is still a little puzzled, but money does not deceive people, and this large amount of money can easily make up the arrears. Pugachev also received the old man, and after taking turns explaining the old man's situation, the company also set the specific coordinates for digging oil.

But the most important thing now is the development of the steel plant, which has been renovating the infrastructure for a week. Time was of the essence, and the recruitment campaign was also launched at the same time, and soon the steel mill recruited more than 100 people, but only a small number of these people were professional steelworkers. If you want to hurry, you can't reach it, the clever woman is difficult to cook without rice, and the Ming is anxious, and finally the real steelworkers arrive.

The second group of workers and equipment arrived, followed by more than 100 professional steelworkers from the previously recruited group of steelworkers in Kyzyl, and the new blast furnace was officially ignited in early September.

"Out of the steel!" With the roar of the steelworkers, the super blast furnace of the secret weapon was officially steeled, and what came out was stainless steel. There is also a metallographic laboratory in the steel plant, and the quality of the steel plate is very good under the microscope.

This is the victory of science and technology, but also the victory of his sister, Daming can not hide the excitement in his heart, he can not hide the excitement in his heart on the night of the first day of steel, and jumped directly to his sister's bed and hugged her in his arms.

Since Tuva was to be used as a base, the siblings' house was being built, and until it was built, they had to live in a municipal hotel. The steel mill is still being repaired, and now it is being built at a certain risk, and those old tanks and tractors have been modified to make the construction faster.

In addition to the steel plant, a branch of the arsenal is also being built, and it is planned that Kyzyl will gradually become the core of the company's weapons production.

In September, when the steel mills began to produce the first batch of common household goods, the president planned a national conference of enterprises, at which Pugachev proposed a large plan for a "national enterprise complex", which he discussed with the Ming to buy all the industrial and mining enterprises in Tuva.

"Now we are the largest investor in Tuva, and we have up to $400 million in assets at our disposal in Pugachev Besika Heavy Industries." Hearing this number, the small entrepreneurs were amazed, and they also knew that this Pugachev was an old friend of the president, so why not do it if he wanted to?

On 15 September, Pugachev heeded the president's invitation and quickly joined the Tuva Development Party as a member, and by the 15th the mine owners had announced their merger into Pugachev's Besika Heavy Industries. "Integrating the enterprises of the whole country to form an industrial complex, we are mutually beneficial, we want to give a part of the benefits to all the Tuvans, and if necessary, we can even organize all the herders." Pugachev thought that the rhetoric of the Ming Dynasty, that is, Vladimir, might be very feasible, because it was simply state capitalism, and the 14-year-old boy was so ambitious that he wanted to consolidate the 300,000 people of Tuva into one giant enterprise.

"You two kids are trying to become Khans." He quipped.

"I don't want to be a khan, I just know that if the power of the whole of Tuva is integrated, their lives will be better, and our wealth will exceed a trillion." The two swore to look forward.
