Gorbachev threw the employment of hundreds of thousands of people to Seryosha, who knew that only industry and agriculture could absorb this working population. However, industry has certain requirements for the quality of the population, especially automobile manufacturing enterprises such as Gorky Volkswagen, which need skilled skilled workers, and the threshold for agriculture is relatively low, and the problem of material supply in the Soviet Union has never been solved, so Seryosha decided to take agriculture as the main breakthrough.

In a high-latitude region like the Soviet Union, the crops that could be grown were very limited, and the farming time was relatively short. However, the pilot farms that Seryosha set up in Ukraine when he worked in the Ministry of Agriculture were still working well, and Seryosha decided to invest heavily in the development of greenhouse cultivation technology in Ukraine. In later generations, many Chinese peasants went to Russia to engage in planting and made a fortune, which proved that this was indeed a road that could be taken, and there was no reason for the Soviets to do this wrong.

Naturally, Seryosha will not personally intervene in this matter, let the Shenko family do it at the end of the quarter, Seryosha is only interested in the financial industry, because there is nothing more worry-free than the sale of money to make money.

Placing hundreds of thousands of people into jobs would require the creation of corresponding jobs, which would mean a lot of investment by the state. This is a good opportunity to steal the country's foreign exchange. Now there is no one left to stop Seryosha without Ligachev, who is eyeing him. As a result, Seryosha began to issue a large amount of foreign exchange loans to enterprises affiliated with the Youth Science and Technology and Cultural Center under the Communist Youth League system, in the name of introducing advanced technology and equipment from abroad. And when the loan was returned, it was in rubles. As a result, more and more foreign exchange entered Seryosha's bank account in Switzerland through the underground bank opened by Seryosha, and because of the interest rate differential between the official exchange rate and the private exchange rate, the enterprises of the Youth Science and Technology Cultural Center made a lot of money. Many of these companies are white gloves that Seryosha has cultivated over the years, and they have helped Seryosha launder money, and in turn they have made a fortune themselves. Everyone has become a closed community of interests, and they are making a lot of money in a very tacit understanding with each other.

In just one month, Hassan's production line for the construction of slabs specially ordered by Germany began to be put into operation and commissioning in the city of Dnipropetrovsk, and the day of full-scale production was not far away, and some of the soldiers who had been evacuated from Afghanistan were arranged to work in this factory, which provided nearly 5,000 jobs at once. Because Seryosha is in charge of this matter, the board building house will become the preferred housing type for the country's resettlement facilities. As for whether these people who live in it are cold or not in a country like the USSR that can have a long winter in a high-latitude country, that is not something that Seryosha has to think about, anyway, he will not take a single one.

It's not winter yet, so the workers who live in the tin containers aren't at their worst. Thanks to the good reputation left by Seryosha during the construction of the new workers' city, many workers did not complain about Seryosha, but instead pointed the finger at those guys in the Politburo, especially Gorbachev. Anyway, he solved the employment and housing problems of these people, and the tin house is also a house, which is better than setting up a tent.

There was so much work during this time that Yulia was a little too busy. Seryosha saw it in his eyes and felt that it was time for Nastya to return. While in the UK, Nastya studied economics and earned a diploma. In addition, he has worked in the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation for many years, and his level has reached a certain level, and Seryosha feels that he can arrange for Nastya to serve as the secretary general of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation and lead the work of the entire department. Yulia, on the other hand, is in charge of what he has to do.

Such a decision is definitely good news for Nastya, because the secretary general of the ministry is one of the senior leaders of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation, and has reached the rank of deputy minister. Only behind Seryosha in the rankings. But Seryosha is no longer so enthusiastic about official positions, the Soviet Union is almost finished, what is the point of giving a minister.

Now that the Soviet Union is in turmoil, economic reforms are struggling, and political reforms seem to have provoked an even greater crisis at the top. Even if Gorbachev's reform plan is really feasible, the biggest problem is the lack of spontaneous reform motivation at the lower levels, and everything needs to be promoted by the higher-ups. In the final analysis, the broad masses of the lower bureaucracy in the Soviet Union were reluctant to carry out reforms, and even within the Politburo there was disagreement on the ways and methods of reform. However, in the past few years, Britain has gotten rid of the dilemma of economic downturn under the leadership of Prime Minister Thatcher, and the economy has begun to return to the path of growth, while the French government has closely followed Margaret Thatcher's reform line, so that the French economy has also begun to get rid of negative growth, and the information technology revolution in the United States is in full swing, which will bring new economic growth points. But the Soviet Union, it seems, has no chance.

The Kremlin's number one priority now is to resettle the Afghan withdrawal and reduce the number of unemployed. These people are not ignorant White Lotus, they came down from the battlefield, and they can do anything in a hurry. But most people will not take risks as long as there is a glimmer of life. In order to provide as many jobs as possible, Gorbachev, at Yakovlev's suggestion, planned to follow the reform measures of Roosevelt's New Deal and launch a number of large-scale projects at the national level to provide jobs. But the Soviet government was in debt and lacked start-up capital. So Seryosha, the only department that was able to get foreign investment, began to show its importance.

Gorbachev's relationship with Seryosha warmed up again, and he began to invite Seryosha to the Kremlin again for important meetings, changing his previous cold attitude. Seryosha naturally had to express his thoughts on these changes in the general secretary, so he suggested to Gorbachev that he could cooperate with more foreign capital and use foreign funds to exploit Siberia's rich oil and gas resources.

Seryosha's proposal was to reorganize the Soviet Ministry of Oil and Gas Industry into a company and form a monopoly of the Konzeen Group, which could attract foreign investment in the form of subsidiaries. Gorbachev was somewhat tempted by Seryosha's suggestion, and if this were the case, all the oil and gas enterprises in the Soviet Union would be consolidated into a single giant enterprise, under which the following subsidiaries would come forward and cooperate with foreign countries, thus solving many institutional problems and strengthening the central control over the oil and gas industry.

Gorbachev promised to discuss this proposal at the Politburo, and Seryosha had some expectations in his heart, hoping that reality would force Gorbachev to implement the plan as soon as possible.
