Becoming a Russian Oligarch After Rebirth
Chapter 1001 - 900: The Change is Too Big_2

Chapter 1001: Chapter 900: The Change is Too Big_2

It’s impossible to satisfy everyone, but at least the vast majority are pleased.

For the few who demanded the sky, after several unsuccessful persuasions, Angelina didn’t hesitate to play hardball when it was necessary.

Don’t forget, Wagner’s largest security base is right here in Crimea!

Moreover, the entire security task for Crimea has been contracted out to Wagner by the government.

...

"Thinking back to the first time I came to Simferopol, and looking at it now, it feels completely different," Wang Ye said with a smile to Angelina after watching the scenery outside the car window for a while.

His first visit here was to meet Meshkov.

Back then, Mikhail had to rely on the reputation of his uncle, Khodorkovsky, to gain a glance of significance from Meshkov.

By making a political donation, Wang Ye secured Angelina a congressman’s status and helped Natalia get the position of prosecutor.

In just two or three years, not only had Simferopol undergone tremendous change, but Wang Ye’s transformation was even greater!

Now, Wang Ye was entirely different from back then.

And the real power holder in Crimea was no longer Meshkov, but Wang Ye!

Meshkov still held the title of President, leisurely biding his time, just waiting to retire and enjoy life...

Angelina smiled knowingly and said,

"In two more years, Simferopol will become even more beautiful!

Misha, I really should thank you on behalf of all Crimeans. Without your support, Crimea could never have achieved this scenario.

Although I always said I wanted to develop my homeland and make Crimea more beautiful,

I knew I didn’t have the capability to do so at the time and was just talking.

I really never imagined that all this would actually come true by my own hands..."

As she spoke, she tightly grasped Wang Ye’s hand, her palm warm and soft.

Wang Ye smiled and held Angelina’s hand as well, looked into her deep blue eyes, and said softly, "I just did the right thing at the right time. Although the investment now is significant, I believe the returns Crimea will give us in the future will be astonishing."

Indeed, Wang Ye was not a saint. If there were not enough returns, he wouldn’t have thrown tens of billions of US dollars into it just because Crimea was Angelina’s homeland!

Such a vast amount of capital, at this time, could accomplish many things.

Crimea was a special place, and because Wang Ye had to operate a base completely under his control, he didn’t hesitate to invest heavily, effectively transforming Crimea with money!

Moreover, Crimea had not yet truly taken off; it was only just beginning to show potential.

In another few years, it might really become the "Little Xiangjiang of Eastern Europe"!

At that time, the capital Wang Ye invested upfront would be returned tenfold or even a hundredfold!

...

The two were being affectionate in the back seat, but Natalia and Nova in the front were also busy.

Natalia was quite curious about Wang Ye’s daily work, and she knew that Nova was Wang Ye’s assistant, who was always by his side.

So, she asked Nova many questions.

Such as how popular Wang Ye was in the Duma, whether he was very prestigious, why two committees in the Duma were given national titles, and whether Wang Ye’s power was now very substantial, amongst other things...

These questions really troubled Nova. Some things she could talk about, but there were others she couldn’t.

More importantly, the boss was sitting right behind her, and as a mere assistant, how could she dare to evaluate him in his presence...

These things should be discussed behind Wang Ye’s back, not in front of him, asking another person.

And the person being asked was still that person’s subordinate!

She sneaked a peek at the back seat and realized that Wang Ye and her sister were not paying any attention to what the two of them were discussing in the front.

Relieved slightly, she picked the questions she could answer and responded.

Fortunately, Natalia had some sense and did not keep pressing her for answers.

Of course, it was also because the car had already arrived at the apartment building...

The city of Simferopol was small to begin with, coming straight out of the airport along the main street, it took just over ten minutes to reach the city center, and the apartment where Angelina and her companion lived was also in this area.

The car stopped, and the four of them got out.

Wang Ye, Angelina, Natalia, and Nova went straight into the apartment lobby and took the elevator up.

There was no need for Wang Ye to worry about the luggage; naturally, the accompanying personnel were there to carry it up for him.

The security personnel brought along didn’t need arranging either; they were all Wagner’s people, and inside this apartment building, Wagner Company had already bought up the apartments above, below, and next to Angelina’s!

They had deliberately arranged for some security staff, both men and women, to live in those apartments to protect Angelina and Natalia.

The people Wang Ye brought this time were naturally arranged to stay in these apartments as well.

...

After returning to the apartment, Angelina helped Wang Ye take off his coat and then bent over to help him slip on his slippers.

Then, she let Wang Ye sit on the sofa to rest for a while.

She herself was like a cheerful little bird, making several trips to bring Wang Ye steaming hot coffee, pastries, fruits, and such.

Natalia went to make a phone call to their favorite restaurant, asking them to send a chef over to prepare dinner for Wang Ye.

After busying herself for a while, Angelina finally sat down next to Wang Ye, turned her face, and saw her younger sister Nova sitting there grumpily stuffing pastries into her mouth.

Angelina paused for a moment, then asked with concern, "What’s wrong, Nova? You seem unhappy."

Nova opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, she didn’t.

Because she wanted to say, "Now that it’s come to this, you’re finally saying this to your sister! And you still ask why I’m angry..."

But saying that would make her appear too childish and not mature or composed enough!

She smiled awkwardly and made an excuse, "No, I just remembered some work-related things. By the way, sister, I need to go back to Yalta tomorrow. Can I use your car?"

Angelina hesitated for a moment; she hadn’t been back to Yalta for quite some time.

By the plan, she should go back with Nova tomorrow to visit their parents and spend New Year’s with them.

But, Wang Ye had arrived, and according to him, he had several people to meet in Simferopol, so it was clear he wouldn’t be able to accompany her to Yalta.

Therefore, she couldn’t go back either.

It didn’t matter. Once Wang Ye went back to Moscow, she could visit her parents in Yalta then.

"Of course there’s no problem with the car, I’m sorry Nova, but I can’t go back with you tomorrow. However, I’ve bought some gifts for our parents, could you take them back for me tomorrow?" Angelina said apologetically.

Nova of course understood why her sister couldn’t go back; if she were in her sister’s shoes, she wouldn’t go back either...

The only reason she was going back to accompany their parents was because she was still a "single dog"!

After dinner, the four sat in the living room chatting for a while, and seeing that it was getting late, they went back to their rooms to rest.

There were things to tend to tomorrow.

Although there were enough bedrooms, Natalia still pulled Nova into her bedroom, planning to have a long talk.

And Wang Ye, of course, went to Angelina’s bedroom...

...

The next day, after seeing Nova off, around ten in the morning, Wang Ye welcomed the first group of guests in the apartment.

It was Yulia and Yanukovych from Kiev!

Now that the year was coming to an end, the General Election in Ukraine was about to begin shortly.

According to the latest public opinion polls, the support rate for the pair of election partners, Yanukovych and Yulia, was already far ahead!

They had a high 56% support rate among the populace!

The one in second place was naturally Yushchenko, although he had been hit with a sudden "scandal" that left him quite embarrassed and his support rate had dropped significantly.

But since he represented the interests and views of some people, and with the efforts of his election team behind him, his support rate could still maintain around 30%, theoretically leaving him some hope of a comeback...
