Chapter 134: Chapter 134: The Path Never Considered_1

Clearly, this event has a sensational effect, instilling confidence in everyone present.

That is, New Sun Market’s future is definitely going to be much stronger than the old market!

Otherwise, how would Big Head Kong dare to make such a promise, even signing written contracts!

For the few days the old market was closed, everyone suffered heavy losses, not knowing when the goods in their stalls could be retrieved.

It’s even uncertain if they could be retrieved at all...

Therefore, now is when people are most sensitive to these guarantees!

What hesitation could there be?

What everyone should do is to seize stalls and move here immediately.

Suddenly, the scene turned chaotic as countless people began to push forward, hoping to grab a good location for their stalls.

After all, space is limited; it’s first come, first served...

Upon seeing this, Big Head Kong swiftly shouted:

"Everyone, don’t panic! Line up in order. There are still plenty of stalls available in the New Sun Market -- up to three thousand five hundred! Additionally, as a token of gratitude for your support of the New Sun Market, the first batch of businesses to move in will be exempted from half a year’s rent and two months’ management fees! Plus, they will have priority in lease renewal!"

Well, what a succession of great news!

Given the current circumstances, even without any rent or management fee exemptions, everyone still wants to rush over.

The New Sun Group is indeed generous!

To directly exempt half a year’s rent and two months’ management fees adds up to several thousand US dollars more!

After Big Head Kong finished speaking, several staff members and security guards stepped forward to maintain order.

They organized the Chinese business owners, who were squashed like sardines, according to the types of goods they sold, such as footwear, luggage, cotton clothes, fur, toys, etc., into several lines.

Then they distributed number plates; those with early numbers could prepare to choose their stalls and sign contracts.

Those with later numbers did not need to worry, they could go ahead with other matters first, and come back to handle the rental procedures when the time was right...

...

When Angelina arrived at the Little Red Building, she didn’t even know what was happening, as there were so many people in front of the building!

After battling her way through the crowd, under the guidance of a tall, muscular security guard, she arrived at a room on the eastern side of the second floor.

It was the same room where she and Wang Ye had met with Khodorkovsky the day before. Of course, it now belonged to Wang Ye...

As she entered after knocking, Wang Ye greeted her with a smile.

The two hugged each other, cheek-to-cheek. Wang Ye reached out to take the coat Angelina had taken off and hung it up for her.

Angelina looked around and asked in surprise, "Misha, are you really going to work here?"

Although she didn’t know how Wang Ye’s conversation with Khodorkovsky had gone, she could guess the general idea from the current situation.

Wang Ye should be working for New Sun Group!

"Haha, from now on, please call me Mikhail..."

As Wang Ye was about to state his new name, he could only remember "Mikhail" and forgot the rest...

Feeling a bit embarrassed, he hastily picked up his new passport from the office desk and read aloud from it, "Mikhail, Ivanovsky, and Hodoricoff."

"And remember, I’m from Krasnoyarsk."

Angelina blinked, confused about what he was up to.

Wang Ye simply handed her the passport.

Upon receiving it, Angelina’s facial expression mirrored Wang Ye’s utter astonishment when he first saw it!

"Who...who’s this? Why does it look so much like you?" She asked in surprise.

Wang Ye replied with a smile, "How could it not resemble me? This is me! This will be my Russian identity from now on. Mr. Hofchinco made arrangements for it. By the way, I am also his distant relative!"

Hearing so much, Angelina finally began to make sense of what was happening.

She asked in confusion, "Why do you have to get this identity?"

Wang Ye put away his smile and said more seriously, "Because...in Russia, it is not allowed for a foreigner to be too outstanding. There are many invisible barriers for foreigners!"

This wasn’t just babbling from Wang Ye.

Russian attitudes can be rather xenophobic...

Naturally, the reason why Hofchinco organized this Russian identity for him wasn’t simply because of that.

There were also some background factors that Wang Ye couldn’t disclose, as he was only vaguely aware of them and still couldn’t confirm!

...

"From now on, you will work here, holding the title of an assistant. Also, I bought three hundred stalls. Although the leasing procedures will go through the Group, the finances must be kept separate. Keep an eye on that."

In front of his spacious office desk, Wang Ye gave instructions to Angelina.

"No problem, I’ll listen to you." Angelina replied firmly.

Her experiences these past few months have been quite "magical"...

Since meeting Wang Ye, Angelina felt as if she was walking a path she could never have imagined...

What would the future bring?

She wasn’t sure at the moment.

But one thing she was sure of was that this path would be far more exciting than her continued teaching career!

"Oh, and your salary has increased, to a temporary five thousand USD a month. You’re the close assistant of the Group’s president. Even if there is no merit, there is hard work. It would be unreasonable if the salary was too low." Wang Ye joked.

Even though she knew that she would never be short of money because of her relationship with Wang Ye,

Hearing about her wage increase made Angelina very happy.

After all, she "earned" these wages by her own "ability"!

It was a different matter when Wang Ye gave her money...

Spending it was much more guilt-free.

"Also, I remember you said you have a driving license. Although, you are not good at driving, you should practice more recently. Later, I will arrange a car for you." Wang Ye continued.

"Thank you, Misha. Thank God for letting me meet you." Angelina looked affectionately at Wang Ye.

It wasn’t because of how much material satisfaction Wang Ye had given her, but rather, the feeling of being taken care of, of being cherished, that made her very moved!

...

While the two were chatting, the office door knocked.

Entering was the head of the bodyguards assigned to Wang Ye by Yukos headquarters, a reported veteran special forces soldier who had participated in the Chechen War!

His name was Anton.

"Mr. Mikhail, this is your gun license and your matching firearm. It was just delivered by the headquarters. If you don’t know how to use it, when you have time, we can go for practice. I can teach you."

While saying that, Anton passed a small black leather bag.

Wang Ye’s hand trembled slightly.

What’s this?

A gun license?

A matching gun!
