Becoming a Russian Oligarch After Rebirth
Chapter 1057 - 929: Blessing in Disguise

Chapter 1057: Chapter 929: Blessing in Disguise

From the conversation with Vladimir, Wang Ye began to feel that this man might truly have been deceived by Novich; he was unaware of the approval of the protest and had not betrayed him.

If that was the case, then Wang Ye felt even more at ease and was more confident in dealing with the Moscow Faction.

After all, the Moscow Police Station was also a Power Department!

Whenever he had overtly or covertly dealt with many a thing, it had always been handled with ease; he had also expended much energy to push Vladimir into this position.

If Vladimir had truly betrayed him, it might not have been a severe blow to his vitality, but it would have made Wang Ye somewhat frustrated.

For a considerable time, if he couldn’t regain control of the Moscow City Bureau, some things would be difficult to carry out, and he wouldn’t be able to exert his full effectiveness.

But whether Vladimir was truly as he claimed, deceived, or whether he was acting, Wang Ye still needed to verify that.

Listen to his words, watch his actions!

No matter how nicely he spoke, it was of no use; the key was to see what kind of actions he would take, what things he would do thereafter.

Therefore, Wang Ye didn’t say much more to Vladimir, merely nodding and saying,

"Since you’ve just rushed back from out of town, head back to the station as soon as possible. There should be a lot of things waiting for you to handle.

I’m fine here. Once you’ve sorted things out at the station, come back and report to me."

Vladimir did not dawdle, snapping to attention with a salute, he bid farewell to Wang Ye and left the office, hurrying back to the city bureau.

From the moment he came in to the moment he left, he had stood the entire time in front of Wang Ye’s desk without sitting down...

......

Wang Ye had a truly fulfilling day.

He also experienced many things he hadn’t encountered before.

Protests, betrayal, reversal...

On the surface, Wang Ye appeared calm and adept, but actually, his mind was taut the entire time.

When things took an unexpected turn, he was nervously thinking about how to confront them, how to resolve them.

Facing the protesting people, although outsiders felt that Wang Ye handled it easily, in fact, every sentence he spoke had been meticulously considered.

Throughout the process, his brain was working at high speed!

Even later in conversations with Dania and Vladimir, his mind didn’t stop for a moment, he was still constantly thinking, discerning the truth behind each word they spoke, and their intentions...

It wasn’t until Vladimir left and the office was completely quiet that he finally breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed.

He lounged back lazily against the sofa, habitually lighting a Black Russian but just holding it between his fingers without smoking...

......

Some time passed before a pang of pain in his fingers startled Wang Ye awake.

Looking down, he saw the lit cigarette had burned to the end, searing his fingers.

He snuffed out the cigarette butt in his hand, sat up, and braced himself; there was still much work to be done, and he couldn’t afford to waste time loafing!

Barely had he sat down at his desk when the red landline telephone started ringing.

The few who could call this number were all well-acquainted.

Wang Ye casually picked up the phone, "Hello... Oh, the matter of the protest? It’s all resolved now, no worries... Mmm, thank you and my father-in-law for your concern, yes, I’ll be careful..."

The call was from Gavriil, clearly indicating the Kremlin was aware of the morning’s events.

Obviously, for such a major incident, how could the Kremlin not know about it.

But calling at this time was probably just to express concern for Wang Ye; furthermore, in the call, Gavriil didn’t ask about the details behind the protest.

Regarding those matters, it’s impossible that Gavriil was completely in the dark, but since he didn’t ask, Wang Ye, of course, didn’t bring them up either.

That essentially meant that concerning dealing with the Moscow Faction, the Kremlin wouldn’t intervene or couldn’t offer much help; Wang Ye would have to rely on himself.

Wang Ye didn’t hold any resentment towards the Kremlin or the Hilarwick Group for not helping him.

After all, it was the Moscow Faction who had initiated an attack aiming at him; it was only natural for him to fight back, and this had nothing to do with the Hilarwick Group.

So there was no valid reason for the Kremlin to help Wang Ye against the Moscow Faction.

In the end, the Kremlin was just the largest faction within the Hilarwick Group or perhaps a representative; they couldn’t fully control this vast "power group," as there were just too many heads and various demands and interests within the group.

Even a forceful person like his father-in-law couldn’t have all members of the group follow his commands at present.

Perhaps, from the Kremlin’s perspective, they were willing to join hands with Wang Ye against the Moscow Faction, but other members within the Hilarwick Group thought differently.

Because in their eyes, if they could use this opportunity to weaken Mikhail’s influence, or even let Mikhail and the Moscow Faction both suffer, that would be the best outcome for them!

After all, Wang Ye and they were still not part of the same faction; moreover, Wang Ye’s rapid rise in recent years and the number of seats he secured in the Duma.

This not only affected the Moscow Faction, but the Hilarwick Group was impacted as well.
