Becoming a Russian Oligarch After Rebirth

Chapter 144: Chapter 144 Private Banquet_1

After the establishment of Huaxing Communications Company, Wang Ye no longer works as a "Card Seller".

Whether it’s a retailer or a distributor, if they want to restock, they can directly come to the company. If necessary, the company can also provide door-to-door delivery services.

Of course, the campus market is still small, so Liu Jun is focusing more on expanding the channels for the New Sun Market.

It’s not that hard. They simply have to advertise in the Chinese Newspaper, then wait for those selling newspapers and cards to come and restock....

All of this is, naturally, because of Wang Ye.

Without him serving as the president of the New Sun Group, Liu Jun would probably still be struggling on how to break into this market.

Indeed, having insiders in ruling circles does provide some benefits...

Now that the main business is done, and it’s almost five o’clock in the afternoon.

Wang Ye waved his hand and chuckled, "Don’t rush to leave after the meeting. Let’s have dinner together! I’m treating! The Maxim Restaurant on the first floor is quite good."

The restaurant he mentioned is the most upscale restaurant in the area.

The average person spends well over one hundred and fifty dollars!

If this were in the past, Wang Ye would have to consider before going out to eat.

But now, he doesn’t care about the price at all.

......

At the Maxim Restaurant, Wang Ye and the others were seated at a long table, talking and laughing.

Most of those present are students and are young people who can strike up a conversation easily, and everyone quickly warms up.

Like Song Xiaogang and Yanzi, the more they chat, the more they seem to have an immediate connection...

Wang Ye did not stay until the end of the meal. After sitting for a while, and not even finishing his steak, he stood up.

He chuckled, "Enjoy your meal everyone, order what you want. I’m covering the bill today. However, I need to leave first, I still have something to attend to."

He really had something to do, or else he would have just invited Angelina to join them for dinner.

At noon, he got a call from Khodorkovsky.

He was invited to a private party at seven in the evening, where he would be introduced to a friend.

No location was mentioned, just that Anton would pick him up and take him there.

Now the time is nearly up, so Wang Ye has to take Angelina home first, then freshen up and change clothes to attend the banquet.

Given the seriousness with which Khodorkovsky had approached this event, it was obvious that the person he was going to meet tonight was not ordinary!

Therefore, Wang Ye must take this seriously, show his best side, and not overlook any details!

......

Ruan Xiaozhu was a little unhappy and pouted, "Hey, you’re such a killjoy. Are you really that busy? You don’t even have time to have a meal."

She didn’t know, but Liu Jun did!

So he quickly reassured, "Wang Ye is indeed very busy lately. Let him go and get his work done. We will continue to dine, him being the generous one tonight! We aim to eat him out of bankruptcy, haha..."

After saying goodbye to everyone, Wang Ye left the restaurant and went outside, where Anton was waiting for him by the car, smoking a cigarette.

Seeing Wang Ye come out, Anton threw his cigarette away and said, "Mr. President, Miss Angelina and the others are on their way here, shall we wait and then directly head to the apartment?"

Wang Ye nodded and asked, "Do I have enough time to go home, take a shower, and change clothes?"

Anton looked at his watch and replied with a smile, "There’s plenty of time. We are going to meet Mr. Hofchinco first. It’s Yukos Building, it’s not too far from where you live. It takes about half an hour by car."

......

After arriving home, Wang Ye went straight to the bathroom after removing his clothes. Angelina handed him a brand new suit, checked his shoes, and cleaned them carefully.

Although the shoes were as good as new, she still painstakingly wiped them again until not a speck of dust could be found anywhere on them, then placed them back down with satisfaction.

After Wang Ye finished taking his shower, Angelina helped him get dressed, and said with concern, "You can’t handle your liquor, don’t force yourself, just drink a little."

This kind of event, since Khodorkovsky hadn’t specifically mentioned bringing "family members", Wang Ye definitely couldn’t just bring someone along.

So it was just him going, Angelina wasn’t going.

After getting dressed, Wang Ye turned around and gave Angelina a gentle kiss and a smile, "Don’t worry, do you really think an oligarch like Khodorkovsky would dare to out-drink me with vodka? I guess we will only be drinking mostly red wine."

Angelina laughed upon hearing this. True, Russia might have many alcoholics.

But for an oligarch like Khodorkovsky, he certainly wouldn’t be a heavy drinker. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have accomplished so much.

Wang Ye didn’t take his gun. It was unlikely that there would be any danger at tonight’s event, and it wasn’t likely that he would be allowed to bring a gun.

When he went downstairs, Anton had already started the car and was waiting for him.

It was just Anton, the other three bodyguards had gone to rest.

Once in the car, Anton drove off towards Yukos Building...

......

Upon arriving at the entrance of Yukos Building, Wang Ye saw a line of cars parked in the small square out front.

The familiar trio of black Mercedes Benz G-Class, and another black Rolls-Royce Phantom!

Obviously, this was Khodorkovsky’s ride for the night.

He made a call to announce his arrival.

Khodorkovsky didn’t say much on the phone, just asked him to wait a few minutes.

Two or three minutes later, Khodorkovsky appeared at the entrance of the lobby, surrounded by a crowd of people.

Wang Ye got out of the car to greet him.

"Haha, Misha, I heard you’ve been doing a great job at New Sun Group these days," Khodorkovsky gave Wang Ye a warm hug.

"It’s all part of the job," Wang Ye replied modestly.

"Come, let’s take this car." Khodorkovsky led Wang Ye to the front Rolls-Royce Phantom.

The two of them sat in the spacious back seat. Besides the driver, one of Khodorkovsky’s assistants sat in the passenger seat.

The convoy began to move, with two Mercedes Benz cars in the front and back, protecting the Rolls Royce in the center.

To anyone observing, it looked like the travel arrangement for some important leader...

......

Wang Ye didn’t ask where they were going or who they were going to meet.

Instead, he reported the work of the New Sun Group to Khodorkovsky, including the complete suspension of the market for rentals, the attracting of customers using the rent-free policy, and the "building of police and community relationships"......

Khodorkovsky listened attentively, although he probably already knew about all this.

But Wang Ye’s report was more detailed now, including why he decided to do things this way!

After listening, Khodorkovsky nodded in satisfaction and said to Wang Ye, "Very good! You’re doing even better than I expected! Get some experience first, there will be bigger platforms for you to shine on in the future, haha."

...

The convoy was heading for the outskirts of Moscow. After driving for more than 20 minutes, they had already left the city and a vast forest appeared on the roadside.

After another ten minutes or so, the convoy turned off the main road, dashing along a spacious but secluded road.

They hadn’t gone far when they came across a mansion hidden in the woods...
