Chapter 465
"Hey...... The opportunity to pick up money is coming, didn't Nan Nan say a few years ago, count the money until your hands cramp! Ye Laosi said with a smile.
"You can still value this little money." Fang Monan put his hands on the armrests and looked at him for a long time.
"No matter how small the mosquito is, it is still meat, and besides, the Soviet Union is very short of it, so I can't buy food with money!" Ye Laosi shook his index finger and said. "I don't know when he's messed up?"
"Some of them are messed up." Fang Monan sighed with emotion, her tone was infinitely embarrassed, she raised her palm and flipped it over.
The next eight? The coup d'Γ©tat, and then the collapse of the Soviet Union in a few months, would be a disaster for every Soviet. At that time, there will be no more countries, and it seems that only the people at the bottom will suffer.
The Soviet radicals, led by Ye, took advantage of nationalist sentiment and the people's desire for democracy, freedom, and a happy life to overthrow the Soviet regime that had been in power in the Soviet Union for decades. But with the success of their plan to peacefully seize power, the huge loans and economic assistance promised to them by the Americans turned into lies, and then the so-called 500-day shock therapy of the radicals also plunged the entire Soviet economy into a state of destruction, and the living standards of the Russian people declined for nearly 40 years.
Due to the lack of foreign financial support, the Yeh government, which had just come to power, was extremely short of operating funds, and thus could not exercise effective control over local governments, so for a time, corruption was rampant in Russia, and corrupt officials of all sizes swept all over the country like locusts, and at the same time, coupled with the surge in the crime rate, the common people of all Russia can be said to be living in a real hell. A private car worth tens of thousands of dollars can only be exchanged for a small bag of potatoes; During the Soviet period, the government issued a huge amount of real estate in a constant manner, which could only be exchanged for two bags of flour; In order to be able to get a pitiful little bread, a young and beautiful woman can give her flesh without hesitation. In the face of such a country and Yip's incompetent government. Russians are beginning to feel nostalgic, they are beginning to miss the Soviet Union, which was once abandoned by themselves, the powerful country when the Soviets were in power.
But it was late, really late, the Soviet coup d'Γ©tat turned itself into Russia. Ordinary people were overthrown by the elite of the CPSU and completely became proletarians. The ignorant people were used as guns.
In this period of history, which is well known to Fang Menan, Russia began to be in turmoil in '91, and it was not until the new tsar succeeded to the throne and was re-elected for two terms that Russia recovered some of its vitality.
'Ten years,' Ye Laosi muttered in his heart. He raised his eyes to look at Fang Monan, and was a little crying and laughing at what he had seen and heard in the Soviet Union in the past few years, "It's a little funny to say, the red empire of the Soviet Union is about to fall apart, and the people living here all use their country as a cage." In their eyes, the Soviet Union was full of garbage, there was nothing that should be kept, and every morning when they opened their eyes, they felt that they were not pleasing to anything, and they even felt ashamed that they were a member of the red country, and only the United States, which was full of freedom and democracy, was the paradise on earth that everyone yearned for. I don't know what to say, there is no country where to come from.
And the same country. In my eyes, everything here is a good thing, not to mention the mineral resources that are rich enough to make the world drool, not to mention the world's largest land area. Just the most hated beings today: corrupt officials and corrupt officials? Good thing, without their existence, where would there be a suitable soil for the survival of us people; A flawed economic system? Good thing, there are no such loopholes. How can others speculate; A sluggish, desperately scarce commodity market? This is even better thing, what are we doing now in this turbulent society and the turbulent political arena? β
Ye Laosi smiled very obscenely, "Hehe, I like these things the most, I wish the world was a little more chaotic now." But this chaos has to have a degree, it can't be turned into a battlefield, I am for money, but I don't want to take my life. β
"There is no big chaos, but there will inevitably be conflicts between those who have the power and guns inside in order to compete for power and profit." Fang Mo South Road.
"How so?" Ye Laosi raised his eyebrows and said.
"First of all, the USSR had a large per capita resource possession, a vast territory with a sparse population. Such abundant resources and a small population ensure that people can rely on the forces of nature to get through the difficulties. Not only rural residents, but also urban residents, most of them have their own land to cultivate. It is estimated that in those most difficult years, many poor urban residents mostly relied on their own crops to survive
There are also independent countries that have largely inherited the Soviet-era social welfare system, thus effectively avoiding social unrest caused by social change. β
"Makes sense." Ye Laosi nodded.
Fang Monan's eyes were dark, and he continued meaningfully, "What do you say will happen if our country gets involved in the affairs of the Soviet Union? β
Ye Laosi's eyes widened and said, "Nannan, don't talk nonsense." How can it be. β
Is it impossible? "In the Cold War years, the United States was a hard encirclement of us and a soft strangulation of the Soviet Union; Seeing that the Soviet Union is about to fall apart, after the end of the Cold War, the United States' grand strategy toward China and Russia is just the opposite: the United States is a hard encirclement of Russia, and it may have to adopt a soft strangulation against us. Don't forget that the fortress is easiest to breach from the inside, see what you saw and did in the USSR. β
Ye Laosi was shocked into a cold sweat and shuddered, he knew too well what the so-called Western goodwill forces and what the Foundation was doing? Selling dog meat on a sheep's head.
Looking at Ye Laosi's expression, you can know that he has a lot of feelings, and close observation can make him more sober!
"Ordinary people, you don't lose your life if you suffer a little bit, you have to be careful, I don't want you to get involved too deeply, but become cannon fodder." Fang Monan changed his words and said seriously.
"Hehe...... Ye Laosi scratched his head and sneered, "I know it in my heart." Regarding these intrigues, Ye Laosi didn't plan to let Fang Monan know, after all, it was not so peaceful inside. From entering Lao Maozi's territory, he only advanced and did not retreat, and there was no way back.
Dealing with Lao Maozi, Ye Laosi is clear in his heart, when to give in, when to be tough, who to give into, and who to be tough.
The situation is complicated in Lao Maozi, there are too many unstable factors in politics, and before the final result comes out, no one knows who will be able to live with a smile in the next moment. So Ye Laosi's relationship network is not small. He stepped on as many boats as he treaded, and in short, no matter which boat capsized, he always had a place to stay.
Ye Laosi is not afraid that the boat will capsize and fall into the water. Now the old Maozi are fighting fiercely, so no matter which side they are, they are facing the biggest dilemma, that is, lack of money, playing politics is not just playing power, from a deeper level, they are also playing with money, if there is not enough financial support, even if Lenin and Stalin are reincarnated, they can't get along in this circle.
So no matter which boat it is, they need someone like Ye Laosi, for them, he is the ballast on the ship. Without him on the ship, then they would not be able to resist the blow of the wind and waves, and Ye Laosi's tendency could also directly affect the stability of each of their sides. Hehe, the most critical question now is to see whether his own ballast is enough, in other words, to see if our financial resources are strong enough. And it just so happens that Ye Laosi's financial resources are thick enough, so he is as stable as Mount Tai.
Fang Menan knew how much he didn't want to, so he changed the topic and said, "If you don't say that I know a little bit in my heart, then the fourth brother will make his reputation bigger, and if he wants to play, he will play big, and he will leave a way back for himself." The biggest way back is our value, as long as you are still valuable for a day, those of them will not touch you for a day. On the day when you have no value, when they want to settle accounts after the autumn, they must also let them not touch you and dare not touch you. Outside the remaining three realms. β
Fang Monan's eyes flashed with the light of wisdom, and the two shouted in unison, "Do business." β
The two looked at each other and smiled, Fang Monan raised his dark eyes, and said calmly and slowly, "A businessman wants to avoid political risks to the greatest extent. You should pay attention to at least four things: a clear direction, a strong industry, sufficient prestige, and a large network of interests. Among these four points, there is no need to say that the clear direction is naturally needless to say, if an official or businessman can't see the general trend clearly, and doesn't know what it means to know the current affairs, then what else is there to mix? As for the strong industry, this is a kind of capital in itself, which is directly related to the position of businessmen in this country, and therefore, it is also indispensable.
The fourth brother can now be said to be rich in capital and rich. In the entire territory of the Soviet Union, you should be the wealthy merchant of the Son of Heaven No. 1! β
Fang Monan's praise made Ye Laosi embarrassed, and said humbly, "Hehe, there and there." β
Fang Monan continued, "As a businessman, if you don't have a strong industrial foundation. That would not build enough prestige in the society, at least, enough influence among the people. Compared to a simple trading company or a financial company. Industrial companies need to recruit a large number of employees and are highly dependent on geography, so that they can solve part of the employment problem in a certain area to a certain extent and promote the development of the local economy. Obviously, it is precisely because of this factor that the interests of industrial businessmen are often implicated in the interests of all aspects of a region, and when this network of interests develops to a certain extent, even the power class wants to attack this type of businessman. It also has to go through some careful consideration, after all, it will touch the interests of many people. β
"That's right, it's rumored on Wall Street that if you kidnap a factory owner, the workers will get you in trouble, and the kidnapping banker will go unnoticed." Ye Laosi said with a smile, he knew the importance of industry in his heart, and he had already acted for it. (To be continued.) )
