Chapter 210: Chapter 210 Showing off Strength_1
He Chaoying was naturally interested!
That’s why she immediately contacted Wang Ye after receiving the news from Big Head Kong’s friend.
After a phone call confirmed the authenticity of the matter, He Chaoying simply said: "I’ll arrange to fly over immediately, probably arriving there tomorrow local time, and we can meet in person then."
Wang Ye, of course, had no objections, and smilingly said that he would pick her up from the airport.
......
After hanging up the phone, Wang Ye thought for a moment and made a call to Kaja.
"Ask Anton to pick up a few more Mercedes-Benz like the ones I have now, buy them today if possible, preferably off the shelf."
"Yes, sir, how many do we need to buy?" Kaja simply responded.
Without hesitation, Wang Ye said: "Ten would be best, I just don’t know if there are that many cars in stock in Moscow..."
Indeed, this was the Mercedes-Benz!
Although people in Moscow are fond of this car and it has good sales here, finding so many Mercedes-Benz off the lot all at once is not necessarily feasible.
Nevertheless, as long as he’s willing to spend the money, there probably won’t be much of an issue. Even if he can’t find ten, he might still be able to get seven or eight.
After all, this is Moscow. It’s not too far from Germany, and Mercedes-Benz has been operating here for many years. German cars are popular, with considerable ownership and sales.
Although the average income in Moscow is low and people can’t afford luxury cars, there are still many wealthy people...
Wang Ye’s decision to buy this many Mercedes-Benz was not for himself.
Honestly, if his convoy was composed of dozens of Mercedes-Benz, it would be too ostentatious and may not be a good thing...
These vehicles were being prepared for the security company!
In addition to the Mercedes-Benz, he would also purchase a batch of Cruisers.
At that time, when the security company carried out its tasks, the entire convoy would be composed of Mercedes-Benz or Cruisers, which would undoubtedly be quite intimidating...
Especially since he was planning to get into the casino business in the future, he had to ensure he could intimidate people with his assets.
Although these cars are expensive, for the current Wang Ye, they’re no longer an issue. Ten Mercedes-Benz would just cost a bit above a million US dollars.
Also, Miss He from the He family is coming tomorrow, so Wang Ye needed to show off his capabilities a bit.
In terms of financial power, he definitely couldn’t compare with the He family unless he relied on his uncle Khodorkovsky.
However, in terms of "military power", bringing out fully armed sturdy men like Anton and Xie Liaosha would surely make Miss He weigh her options...

In the afternoon, Yuri from Petersburg called, saying that he found a suitable target for acquisition.
Honestly speaking, St. Petersburg is absolutely stronger than Moscow when it comes to tourism!
Because from the 17th to the 19th centuries, St. Petersburg was Russia’s capital city. Both the Winter Palace and the Summer Palace are famous royal palaces, and their scale is no less than the Kremlin, and even more extravagant and luxurious!
Of course, Yuri wouldn’t dare to consider the Summer and Winter Palaces.
This wasn’t like Yalta, the Winter and Summer Palaces were the proper places where the Tsar lived and they hold a historical significance for Russians.
Besides, although Russia’s economy is not very developed today, a starving camel is still bigger than a horse. There’s no way they would sell these two places to Wang Ye to open a casino...
Even if they dared to sell, Wang Ye wouldn’t dare to buy. What if one day the Emperor isn’t in a good mood and decides to "settle accounts" with him!
Consequently, before Yuri set off, Wang Ye had said to look for a place that looked spectacular and historical, preferably like a palace. If that wasn’t possible, a luxury hotel that’s currently in operation could be considered as well.
"Mr. Mikhail, after inspecting the whole Petersburg city area, including the suburbs, I found two suitable targets. One is on Neva Avenue in the city center, currently a department store. The area is not small, but unfortunately has only five floors. It’s enough to be a gambling entertainment center, but it can’t be a hotel. The other one is a mansion in the suburbs, previously a convalescent home for a military factory during the Former Soviet Era..."
Yuri described the two targets he had chosen.
Wang Ye pondered for a moment, then asked: "Aren’t there any new buildings like Xiao Ying Hotel?"
Yuri gave a bitter smile and replied: "Not many! The new buildings here are generally office buildings and high-end apartments. There are no luxury hotels. After all, Petersburg’s economic development is far behind Moscow."
True, Petersburg is very beautiful, yet also very old...
Especially in this period of 2001, Moscow has some skyscrapers, but in Petersburg, all you can see throughout the city is "history"...
Wang Ye thought for a while and decisively said: "Start with the department store on Neva Avenue. Our main business is gambling, not hotel accommodation! We need to make it clear what is our main and what is our secondary business."
Indeed, for a gambling center, this kind of old-style department store would be beautiful enough and spacious on the inside, so it would be relatively easier to renovate.
Just look at the major casinos in Macau and Las Vegas. They are all eye-catching from the outside!
As for places like convalescent homes, it might not be suitable.
.........
On the morning of June 3rd, a flight from Xiangjiang to Moscow landed at Sheremetyevo Airport.
He Chaoying, accompanied by two assistants, disembarked from the plane.
She just turned forty this year, sporting a neat short hair, wearing a pair of sunglasses, dressed in a beige woman’s suit, and had a breezy stride...
The two assistants, one male and one female, both in their twenties, were each pulling a small suitcase and following swiftly behind her.
As soon as she arrived at the exit of international arrivals, He Chaoying saw a big Russian guy holding a large sign, written in Chinese, "Miss He".
Apparently, this must be the person who was there to pick her up.
He Chaoying slowed down, looked again, and found that not far from the Russian guy with the sign, there were two young people standing, a man and a woman.
The man should be Mikhail who she had spoken to over the phone...
The area was quite crowded, but the reason He Chaoying’s gaze was immediately drawn to Wang Ye was because he was quite "eye-catching".
Wang Ye was quite tall to begin with, over 1.8m, and the young man was extremely handsome.
Plus, Kaja standing next to him was a stunning beauty. Together, they were the spotlight of the entire hall!
Besides, behind Wang Ye and Kaja, stood two burly men in camouflage uniforms.
Although these two big guys weren’t carrying any weapons, just by looking at their posture and physique, they were definitely not easy to mess with...
He Chaoying walked directly towards Wang Ye, who also saw her and stepped forward to greet her.
When they were about one meter apart, both of them paused, looked at each other, smiled, and simultaneously reached out their right hands...
