At this chance meeting, Suslov made a good impression on Serov and definitely tasted him ideologically. For Serov, he didn't know that he was inadvertently facing a big man. It's just a daily braggadocio that is quickly forgotten.

You can't blame Serov for being blind, after all, a person of Suslov's level, who would believe it if he didn't go out with a few security guards? At least on the surface, Suslov at that time definitely looked like a cleaning staff, not at all reminiscent of a high-ranking secretary of the Secretariat.

It's okay to say it's a big heart, anyway, this little episode Serov quickly forgot, it's okay to sleep at home with his wife, and Xiaomi's life in outsourcing continues, and he accompanies Valya to the mall to shop when he has nothing to do, of course, sometimes there is an uninvited guest to follow, Minister of Culture Fulcheeva, this old woman always shows extraordinary love to Serov, which makes Serov worry for a while, and when you grow up, don't be like this unscrupulous Fulcaiwa.

"The fruit machine test is complete, show me the report!" Serov was very surprised, because the report of the test of the fruit machine came much faster than in Baku in the past.

After all, Semychasny already knew enough about Serov, even if Serov had asked for a test in Baku City, Semychasny was still worried that it would cause a bad impact, so he sent the fruit machine to the labor camp, but in a short period of time it still surprised Semychasny, this batch of fruit machines was very popular with some people, but it was also this group of people, and soon the symbolic wages paid by the labor reform factory were quickly lost.

"Aren't the results promising?" Serov looked at the report at a glance and ten lines. Soon said. "In that case. Immediately send the test results to the 8th General Directorate, so that the subordinate factories of the 8th General Administration can mass-produce the fruit machine, our comrades are waiting! ”

The Hessian casino in Las Vegas has opened, although it is only a small casino, only one-tenth the size of a large casino, but as long as it is not discovered by the FBI, with the secret support of the KGB, it is a sure thing to develop into a large casino in Las Vegas. Wait for the factory to finalize the fruit machine. Serov is ready to send to all the places where there are casinos, trying to make as much money as possible in the shortest possible time, which can be used to solve the financial crisis of the KGB.

In fact, it is not just casinos and pyramid schemes, if Serov is not afraid of competing with a group of drug dealers in the corners of the world, he really wants to ask the chemists of the Technical Bureau to research several new drugs and products. In the end, Serov still couldn't get past his own level and gave up the plan. Colonel Igor in Egypt can also solve the financial problems of the KGB, and since the group of people in Africa wants to expand their armed forces, they will exchange them for local mineral resources. Even if the Soviet Union could not use such resources for the time being, it would definitely not be too much.

"General. So what is the output of this batch of fruit machines, do we need to report it?! Lukani asked.

"Report? To which department are we going to report to the KGB? Serov snorted and smiled, "This is to generate income for our own department, it has nothing to do with other departments, and no one can take care of our affairs!" No need to report! ”

What are you kidding, although they are nominally all departments of the same level, as long as anyone with a little common sense can see that if the KGB continues to advance, there is no department that can stop it. A bunch of scum with mantis arms as a car is not an opponent of the KGB at all.

Khrushchev sat firmly in the Kremlin for five or seven years, and it can be said that Khrushchev has almost reached the authority of Stalin in those years, and under the nominal collective leadership, other people such as Malenkov, Molotov, etc., are now incomparable with Khrushchev's influence. In the party, the middle-level cadres of about seven layers of the country have been replaced by people under Khrushchev's ideology, the cadres of the Stalin era have been completely replaced, and Khrushchev has spent less than four years pushing all his competitors into a corner, and the entire Soviet Union he is no longer just a nominal leader, but the only first secretary of the Soviet Union.

From the outside, Khrushchev had strong support, from the inside he had become the first secretary, he was no longer the only obedient person in the Stalin period, and the Stalinists, who seemed to be strong, had been completely replaced, and as for the popular supporters of Stalin, the KGB's mental hospitals were full of such people.

"Alexander, the Komsomol is a strong addition to us! So the work must be done well, of course, your ability cannot be limited to the Communist Youth League, if I ask you, if you leave the post of the Communist Youth League, who do you think is the best person to succeed you now? Khrushchev asked Sherepin with Yan Yuese, for this person, Khrushchev is one of the few more optimistic cadres, Sherepin is very young and full of courage, and his reputation in the Communist Youth League is also very good, in fact, Khrushchev intends to let Sherepin change workplaces, although this time it is only a temporary intention to ask, but it is not without the intention of letting Sherepin change places, and let Sherepin take the initiative to recommend his successor, which is also a rare respect.

"General Secretary, but it is not difficult to answer the question of the personnel I recommend! The First Secretary of Azerbaijan, Comrade Semychasny, also a graduate of Moscow University, was a calm person, cold and methodical, approachable to his colleagues. But Jean is not a happy person, but if sometimes this comrade needs to show a sense of humor, he can do it, and it will definitely not cause a problem of misfits! "If it were another person, hearing that the general secretary had asked him to recommend a successor, he might be hesitant to talk about him, but Sherepin is not that kind of person.

According to Serov's observation, there is one thing that Sherepin does not lack at any time, that is, self-confidence, in his own perception, there is no one in the entire Soviet Union, including Khrushchev, who is more capable than himself. There is no one better than yourself.

"Shemychasne, I've heard of this guy, and he did a good job in Azerbaijan! It's a pleasure to have a group of young people like you in the party! Khrushchev said with confidence, "Every generation of our ** people are striving for one goal, and Americans will eventually be buried by us......"

Although Khrushchev did not want a head-to-head duel with the Americans, he still had great expectations for defeating the United States, but he advocated peaceful competition with the United States by economic means, and some people in China complained about it. Officially, because of the contradictions between Khrushchev and these people, after the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China last year, Malenkov, Molotov, and Kaganovich were successively relieved of other temporary posts, and with the passage of time, the work of the three people will definitely become less and less, and the status of the three people will become more and more marginalized, which is also what Khrushchev hoped.

In fact, compared with other leaders, Khrushchev gave more trust to these young people in the party, but Serov has always wanted to know a question, that is, after Khrushchev was ousted from power by Shelepin, what did he think of Shelepin, and later heard that Brezhnev got rid of Shelepin, what kind of attitude he had.

"Sooner or later, Khrushchev will drive us all down and turn our Motherland into his own kingdom!" After a long time, Molotov broke the long silence and said what was in his heart, "We may leave our current posts one after another, and when the time comes, our fate may be ordinary to live the rest of our lives, maybe we will become Beria's end, find out an old case at random, and when the time comes, we will be blamed, and everything will be fine......

"Then what do you want, now he is the general secretary, and I am no longer the chairman of the Council of Ministers!" Malenkov said with some trepidation, "Now that he alone has to express his opinion, he will get more support than the rest of us combined, what do you think we can do?" ”

Molotov was silent, and had to say that what Malenkov said was right, but if you want to sit still, the living space of him and Malenkov will only get smaller and smaller, and it is not empty talk that Khrushchev will drive them into the posts one after another, and now there is this trend, but Molotov thinks that now they still have the strength to fight, and they may not even have a chance to fight in the evening for two years.

"In fact, in the Presidium of the Central Committee, Khrushchev is only one of the members of the Presidium, although he is the general secretary, but we are equal to each other, as long as we remove him from his post! You can bring the situation back into the situation of collective leadership! Molotov stirred his fingers and said as he calculated, "As long as we remove Khrushchev from his post, what will happen to the cadres below?" It's not that what we say is what it is......"

Malenkov did not speak, and seemed to be caught in a long calculation, and after a long time he silently said, "Only the two of us will never succeed, and we must win the support of most of the members of the presidium, otherwise it will only give him an excuse to dismiss us......"

"Of course, I understand this, too strong leaders will not be popular, I do not believe that others will tolerate Khrushchev's authority getting closer and closer to Stalin?" Molotov has been in charge of diplomatic work for a long time and has a certain study of the human mind. Except for once being deceived by Ribbentrop, there was no time to look away.

After the two of them discussed for a while, they dispersed after a short time, after all, if they were together for a long time, it would be easy to be alerted by Khrushchev, especially when they were already dissatisfied with Khrushchev, and they could not show their feet. (To be continued......)
