After alighting from the plane, Feng Yu saw Kirilenko waving at him. When Feng Yu reached Kirilenko, he "enjoyed" Kirilenko's bear hug again. Damn!
Can't this guy be gentler with his hug? Is he trying to strangle me?!
"Feng, you are finally here. Let's go. Based on your Hua Xia customs, there should be a welcome dinner after we alight. Let's go and have a few drinks."
Feng Yu's face changed: "Brother Ki, there is no need for a welcome dinner now. Let's have a chat first."
What kind of welcome dinner is this? You are just trying to force me to drink. If they were in the Northeast, Feng Yu would not even be able to see the first dish!
Kirilenko replied with a regretful expression: "Alright. Let's take a rest first. I will also tell you about our mining company."
… …
"We had acquired 5 types of mines and 12 mines. When we bought the mines, the prices were slightly lower. But now, the prices had increased by a lot. You should know about this. We will follow what you said and reduce the mining volume. But when are we going to increase the mining volume? We can't possibly not make money from these mines. "
Kirilenko was frustrated. He had invested all his assets into this mining company, but Feng Yu told him that this was not the time to sell his mines. The value of the mines was too low now, and Feng Yu asked him to break even and operate his mines.
Kirilenko's livelihood now depended on Hua Xia's commodities. How much can he earn in a month? The Soviet Union had disintegrated, and he can only sell his minerals in Russia. His profits were much lower.
A mining tycoon with a net worth of more than 1 billion USD could only use 1 to 2 million USD. The difference was too big.
"The price of oil will not increase in the near future. It will increase again in 1994. Before that, we will break even and operate our mines. We will make some profits and improve our mining equipment. It is the same for iron, steel, and other metals. The prices will not change much now. But as the demand increases, the prices will increase. The time for us to make money is at the end of this century! "
Kirilenko looked at Feng Yu as if he had been cheated. "I can only make money at the end of this century. You want me to invest all my money in the mines now?!"
Feng Yu spread his hands. "I didn't expect you to buy so much. Besides, I invested more money than you. Don't worry, I guarantee that from the end of this century onwards, your assets will rise exponentially! "
At the end of this century, there would be a new round of price increases for energy and minerals. At that time, the market value of this mining company would increase by several times.
Moreover, Feng Yu had other uses for these ores. He just didn't need them for the time being.
Furthermore, if Kirilenko does not buy this mine, the Americans will buy it, and Russia will suffer losses. Most of the funds you used to buy the mines are from loans. When you repay the loans at the end of the century, Rubles will depreciate by a thousand times. You will have picked up these mines for free!
Kirilenko kept quiet when Feng Yu mentioned funds. Indeed, Feng Yu had invested more than him. But Kirilenko's shares were lesser than him.
"Brother Ki, after the dissolution of the Soviet Union, did your father's rank increase?" Kirilenko asked. Kirilenko should tell him something that will make him happy.
At the end of last year, the Soviet Union was finally dissolved. Even the United Nations recognized it. Russia and other former Soviet Union countries, or the whole world, had entered the post-Soviet era!
"Hahaha, my father is now a Lieutenant General in the Army!" Kirilenko said proudly. With his father's age, he should be promoted to an Admiral in the future. Also, he would be an Admiral in the main combat forces.
Kirilenko's father was only a Rear Admiral in charge of logistics. He thought that this was the limit of his career. He never expected that he would have the opportunity to be an Admiral in the main combat forces.
Kirilenko's elder brother was also promoted to a Rank 2 Field Officer in the Navy. In another 2 years, he would be promoted to a Rank 1 Field Officer. All of this started when his father showed his support for Yeltsin.
Kirilenko reminded Yeltsin that the opposition would start a coup, place Mikhail Gorbachev under house arrest and even assassinate Yeltsin! Yeltsin was also prepared for this. That's why he was able to react to the coup. This was why he was able to achieve the current situation.
Now, all the Soviet Union's overseas assets were taken over by Russia. Belarus and Ukraine only got some assets within the Soviet Union. Even if all the other allied countries added up, they would not get as many assets as Russia. Without those burdens, it was only a matter of time before Russia could rise!
Furthermore, the Soviet Union's industrial machinery that Kirilenko sold to Feng Yu were mainly from other allied countries. He did not touch the heavy industrial machinery in Russia. Even if others were to sell it to him, he would not buy it. This made it easier for Russia to regain its former glory.
This did not escape Yeltsin's eyes. They knew that Russia did not suffer any losses, and they did not pursue Kirilenko's actions. This will also weaken the strength of other allied countries. This way, Russia will be able to maintain its position as the leader of Eastern Europe. Ukraine and Belarus had the most equipment sold to Kirilenko. Kirilenko was overjoyed. Let those two countries compete with Russia for the Soviet Union's overseas assets!
Kirilenko was no longer a soldier. He was now a businessman. Kirilenko could inherit his father's dream of being a soldier. He can be a happy tycoon.
For example, because of his father's promotion, Kirilenko had become one of the most influential people in Russia's second generation circle!
"Congratulations. But I still need your help with the matter I told you the last time. This matter is not urgent, but it must be completed as soon as possible. "
"I am helping you to find out. It is not possible for our country to buy it. But it should not be a problem to buy it from other allied countries."
Kirilenko was puzzled. Why did Feng Yu want to buy it? Did he need it? Or was Feng Yu buying it for his country? But his country could produce it themselves now. There was no need to buy from the Soviet Union. In a few more years, these old products will be obsolete.
"It's fine. I can wait." Kirilenko agreed. Feng Yu was relieved. Kirilenko's reputation was still good. At least, he had never gone back on his promises to Feng Yu.
"Feng, can you increase the prices for next month's merchandise?" After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, Russia's consumer goods industry had started to recover, but it was still far from recovery. Instead, the consumer goods market had opened up, and Kirilenko wanted to make use of this opportunity to make more money.
"No problem. As long as there is space on the train, I will fill it up for you. You can pay me later." Kirilenko and Kirilenko had a cooperation worth 1 to 2 billion USD, and a few million USD is nothing to him.
"Feng, you are my good brother. That's settled then. Fill up the train for me, and I will pay you when the goods arrive. It's getting late. Let's go for a drink! "Kirilenko looked at his watch and said.
Damn. Shouldn't it be getting late? Let's go for a drink?
Feng Yu was dragged out of the room by Kirilenko. He was thinking about how to refuse to drink later.
