Chapter 182: Chapter 182 It’s Getting Complicated_1
After dealing with Song Xiaogang’s matter, and dropping Ruan Xiaozhu back at school, Wang Ye quickly drove back to the New Sun Market.
He had already learned about the instigator behind last time’s Russian hooliganism. It was the behind-the-scenes boss of the Lyublino Large Market!
This left Wang Ye utterly speechless...
So, people in the same profession were really enemies!
He even told Maylov that he had a way to make the Lyublino Large Market fail to open for business.
As a result, before Wang Ye could make a move on his side, the others made a premeditated attack!
Fortunately, Wang Ye was decisive and ruthless, instantly severing the underhanded tactics of the other party and taking the opportunity to place the Caucasus gang under his control!
Of course, Wang Ye didn’t care much about being involved in the gang activities. The main reason why he controlled Aiermal and the caucus gang was that this gang controlled the majority of the Russian labor force, which is indispensable for operating a wholesale market...
Wang Ye just hoped that they wouldn’t cause any more trouble.
Perhaps when needed, this group of Russians could also play an unexpected role.
.........
Once Wang Ye got to his office, he called Big Head Kong over the phone.
"Do you understand the background of the Lyublino? " Wang Ye started to ask.
Big Head Kong immediately answered, "I know! The market is run by two brothers, their ancestors come from Kazakhstan, and they’ve been in Russia for over twenty years, solely doing business in the hotel sector. They have some not-so-small hotels in the major cities like Moscow and Petersburg. I don’t know why, but they suddenly took over a piece of land two years ago to open a wholesale market. They are probably envious of the money made by ACT Group."
Again, it’s the Russians!
Wang Ye was a bit of a headache. In Russia, the Russians are just too "prevalent"...
Moreover, most of these Russians have Jewish descent, for example, Maylov is one of them.
"Do they... have any background? " Wang Ye asked.
Big Head Kong thought about it for a while, then shook his head and said, "I am not really sure about it, as I have never dealt with them. But being able to open a hotel here and moreover getting approvals for building wholesale markets, they certainly have some background. Who it is exactly, we do not know."
Indeed, Big Head Kong’s contacts are not so wide, he only knows bits and pieces.
Wang Ye cannot expect him to know everything.
He waved his hand to let Big Head Kong leave.
.........
However, with the other party pulling a fast one on him, Wang Ye would definitely not let matters rest as they are.
In this environment, there is no such thing as "harmony brings wealth"!
In business competition, there’s no limit to the methods everyone uses, both on the surface and behind the scenes.
It can be said that after the breakdown of the former Soviet Union, Russian society had the "law of the jungle", where the victor is the king!
As for how you win, no one is interested in that, everyone only sees the result...
Even for someone as "civilized" as Khodorkovsky, nobody would believe that his business Yukos could grow to its current scale completely legal and without dealing with competitors.
In this case, Wang Ye still had no intention of seeking Khodorkovsky’s help.
He didn’t even think about consulting Ivan and making use of Ivan’s resources.
So, how should he deal with the Lyublino brothers...
Wang Ye fell into deep thought.
He was brainstorming what resources available he had on hand.
He ruled out the idea of thinking about the friends in the Chinese circle, there’s nothing they could do to help.
So, who are the Russians he knows, and they also need to be Russians with some capabilities...
The first person Wang Ye thought of was Gavriil!
This man is the Kremlin’s supreme manager and favored by The Emperor!
If he is willing to help him, then Lyublino and other Russian brothers will be squashed like ants!
But the problem is, how could he win this big shot’s approval and persuade him to assist him to confront the Russian brothers...
.........
He locked himself in the office. After Wang Ye smoked half a box of cigarettes and drank several cups of strong coffee, he roughly came up with a plan in his mind.
He looked at the time, it was already well past five in the afternoon.
According to the Russian working hours, it was already off-duty time.
He took out his mobile phone and dialed Gavriil’s number.
The phone rang a few times, then got connected.
Wang Ye quickly greeted, "Hello, Mr. Gavriil, This is Mikhail, my uncle is Khodorkovsky."
The reason he added the latter half was that he was afraid that Gavriil would forget who he was...
After all, they didn’t have much contact, they only met once at A Bu’s mansion.
In that sense, he is still "benefiting from" the prestige of Khodorkovsky. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have had any connection with Gavriil at all.
"Haha, Mikhail, it’s nice to hear from you, you’re a great young man. What’s up, you need something from me?" A hearty laugh came from Gavriil over the phone.
Wang Ye breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, the other person still remembered him.
He then replied, "Well, I am currently preparing for a business project that might involve some legal issues, and I would like to consult your opinion since you are the most familiar with these things. I was wondering if we could have dinner together to discuss when it’s convenient for you."
Gavriil paused for a moment on the other end of the line, then replied cheerfully, "No problem, I happen to be free tonight. I haven’t had dinner yet, where should we meet?"
This was unexpectedly smooth which took Wang Ye by surprise.
But this was not the time to feel surprised. He quickly responded, "Let’s meet at the Turandot restaurant. I’m not sure if you’d like it there, Mr. Gavriil."
"Hehe, just call me uncle, don’t make it sound so distant by calling me ’Mr.’. Turandot is a good place, let’s meet there. I am still busy at the office, I would probably be able to make it around seven," Gubliev said amiably.
In that case, Wang Ye wouldn’t be shy about it, "Alright, then I will wait for you at Turandot, see you tonight."
"See you tonight."
.........
Things are going smoothly!
But after hanging up, Wang Ye frowned.
Gavriil seemed too enthusiastic to him...
Wang Ye didn’t think his charm was so great that it would make Gavriil, the supreme manager of the Kremlin, think highly of him.
Truly speaking, people with such high status as his have seen all kinds of people and experienced all sorts of situations!
Wang Ye didn’t think he would be impressive enough...
Could it be because of Khodorkovsky’s face value?
That also doesn’t seem right. After all, Gavriil represents the interests of the Emperor!
And what Khodorkovsky is doing now doesn’t align with the interests of the Emperor’s side. It’s also possible that The Emperor already has some thoughts about Khodorkovsky.
It’s just that it’s not good to start something right now.
This seems to be getting complicated...
