Becoming a Russian Oligarch After Rebirth
Chapter 1214 - 1007: Super Mansion

Chapter 1214: Chapter 1007: Super Mansion

In the past few years, he had spent the dividends from various companies almost as soon as he received them each year, hardly allowing them to linger in his account for long.

Among his many companies, not all were cash cows like Yukos Group, Xiao Ying Group, and Siberian Gold. Let’s not forget the "money pits" like Wagner and Crimean Investment.

Alongside Zhang Xiaoxi’s asset management company...

It’s safe to say that no matter how substantial the dividends were, they were never enough!

However, this year was different. Whether it was Wagner, Crimean Investment, or domestic asset management companies, none of them needed financial input for the time being.

Wang Ye had no plans to reinvest this money but intended to spend it!

Four billion US dollars was no small sum, and spending it would certainly be challenging, but the items Wang Ye planned to purchase this time were not cheap, and should expend all four billion US dollars...

Both he and Rossiyana were not young anymore. Given that they both were successful and held high positions, it would be somewhat unreasonable if they remained single and did not marry.

Moreover, given their identities, marriage was not a simple affair and required years of advance preparation.

At the very least, Wang Ye had to get a house ready...

He still did not have a house of his own.

Being single didn’t matter; living on the top floor of the Xiao Ying Hotel was very convenient and not at all inferior to those so-called upscale apartments.

But living there after marriage would not be quite appropriate.

So, Wang Ye planned to build a mansion. When in Rome, do as the Romans do; the wealthy in Russia loved living in mansions, so now that Wang Ye was an "old Russian," the "home" he prepared for himself would naturally be a grand mansion!

If he just wanted to buy a plot of land in the suburbs to build a mansion, it really wouldn’t cost much, maybe one or two billion US dollars at most, already qualifying as a top-tier luxury home.

But Wang Ye had his sights set on a location right across from the Kremlin in the city center, separated only by the Moscow River.

This was also a mansion, known as Karominsky Manor, constructed in the fourteenth century as the Tsar’s summer villa.

Indeed, this mansion was situated on a small hill, higher in elevation than the Kremlin. From the mansion, one could overlook most of Moscow!

Since it was a royal mansion, naturally, it covered a large area—390 hectares!

One hectare equals 0.01 square kilometers, so this mansion covered an area of 3.9 square kilometers...

This place was much larger than the Kremlin!

You know, the Kremlin itself covers only 28 hectares; this Karominsky Manor is equivalent to fourteen Kremlins!

Located absolutely in the city center with a vast area and being a royal garden, the price for this mansion would not be low.

This is why Wang Ye had prepared a whopping four billion US dollars.

Actually, if his fiancée hadn’t been Rossiyana, Wang Ye wouldn’t even consider buying this mansion, because it was too "ostentatious" and could look bad.

But Rossiyana was a direct descendant of the Tsar, the contemporary "Grand Duke of Romanov"!

In this light, purchasing and renovating this mansion to become their future home was exceptionally suitable, and the general public would probably not object.

After all, it could be considered as "returning property to its original owner."

Out of the forty-one billion US dollars he had prepared, perhaps twenty billion would be used to purchase the mansion, with the remaining twenty billion naturally intended for reconstruction and renovation.

After all, this mansion was several centuries old, and its buildings were dilapidated. Most were wooden structures that were absolutely uninhabitable.

Given the country’s financial deficits in recent years, naturally, there were no extra funds to maintain such places. Thus, the mansion had fallen into disrepair, and its buildings almost needed to be completely demolished and rebuilt.

Of course, with the generous funds Wang Ye had prepared, there would definitely be enough.

Once he finished rebuilding this mansion, it would probably become the most expensive luxury home worldwide, unmatched...

After all, this would be a super mansion worth four billion US dollars!

......

Karominsky Manor was under the jurisdiction of Moscow, managed by Rossiyana. Furthermore, during the reconstruction, Wang Ye primarily considered Rossiyana’s opinions.

So, he found some free time, invited Rossiyana to dinner, and discussed his ideas with her.

After listening to Wang Ye, Rossiyana was very pleased.

Because Wang Ye was finally starting to consider their marriage...

"This idea is fantastic!

I’ve visited that mansion several times, and the scenery is very beautiful. If it were nicely renovated, it would definitely be a comfortable place to live in.

But such a large plot of land in the city center will be very expensive.

Moreover, with both of us buying land, many people will be watching, so offering a low price won’t be good."

Rossiyana was initially pleased, but as she spoke, she furrowed her brows.

Indeed, due to their sensitive identities, they really couldn’t offer a low price to purchase Karominsky Manor.

Otherwise, it would be leaving a handle for others.

Wang Ye smiled and casually said, "Money is not an issue. I just earned four billion US dollars in dividends these past few years, and I plan to spend it all on this mansion. Spending twenty billion US dollars to buy this mansion should not be considered a low price. That should also give an account to the local people."
