Becoming a Russian Oligarch After Rebirth

Chapter 345: Chapter 345: Fearless with Backup_1

After Petrov’s arrival, Wagner Security Company quickly began to formalize.

Honestly, before he arrived, Wagner seemed more like a "gang", rather than a real team.

Anton once was just a squad leader in the army, lacking experience and ability to manage many people, so he was a little overwhelmed when the company expanded to two hundred people.

At that point, Wang Ye wasn’t planning on expanding further, as he couldn’t find suitable talent to manage Wagner Company in the short term.

Luckily, Gavriil "sent" him Petrov, an experienced special forces officer!

The reason Wang Ye handed over Wagner Security Company to Petrov’s management, and seemingly trusted him with everything, wasn’t because Wang Ye was "naive".

Instead, he understood that without Petrov’s arrival, Wagner Company could not scale up.

Because no country would tolerate an uncontrollable armed force within its borders!

Let alone obtaining large amounts of weapons and ammunition, and heavy weaponry.

At that point, The Emperor might directly ask Wang Ye what he wanted to do with such an "army"!

But with Petrov, someone sent by The Emperor, managing Wagner Company, misunderstandings between Wang Ye and The Emperor wouldn’t exist.

They could now easily get their hands on weapons, ammunition, and heavy weaponry.

Clearly, Petrov’s role to "monitor and guard" against Wang Ye was no secret to anyone.

But at the same time, if Wang Ye harboured no ill intentions and did nothing detrimental to Russia, Petrov would become a trusted and capable assistant!

Plus, the Federal Security Bureau would support Wagner Security Company in all aspects. There wouldn’t be any issues with personnel and equipment either.

In the end, the current Wagner Company was like a "sharp blade" crafted by The Emperor using Wang Ye’s financial strength!

Ordinarily, Wang Ye could wield this blade freely.

When the country or The Emperor needed it, he would have to relinquish control...

What Wang Ye needed to do was figure out how to reasonably use this power to satisfy both The Emperor’s and his own interests!

......

While these events were raising a storm in San Francisco, with the media and the public in a wild guessing game and journalists speculating it could be another KB attack against the United States.

Perhaps because the incident was quite sensational, a few unknown small "gangs" emerged, claiming responsibility for the incident!

However, in Moscow, no one was paying attention to this issue, except for a handful of people who knew exactly who was behind it...

Inside the Kremlin, in Gavriil’s office.

Wang Ye was quite familiar with this place, having come here countless times.

Upon entering, he saw Gavriil engrossed in some documents and didn’t disturb him.

He pulled up a chair and sat down. Observing a box of unlabeled cigarettes on the office desk, he picked one up and lit it.

The taste was quite good, better than the Black Russian he usually smoked. It was probably a kind of "special supply" cigarette.

Relaxing with one leg over the other, he had barely taken a couple of satisfying puffs when Gavriil finished his work.

Gavriil looked up and saw Wang Ye sitting there, both amused and annoyed, and sternly said: "You are overstepping! Creating such a ruckus overseas, aren’t you afraid they will trace it back to you?"

Wang Ye knew exactly what he was referring to - it was about taking out those black guys.

With a casual smile, he calmly replied: "I was nearly killed! And my bodyguard died protecting me. Of course, I had to retaliate. In the future, I will try to visit there less often. Even if they track me down, I don’t believe they would dare to come to Moscow to arrest me."

This was just him being cheeky, but Wang Ye had the right to be so.

One should know, in a month or two, he would become a distinguished member of the State Duma!

He would then enjoy judicial immunity within Russia!

The United States certainly wouldn’t dare to enter his home turf to arrest him. Not to mention Wang Ye’s security forces, Gavriil and others would never stand by and watch Wang Ye get arrested.

This involved the national dignity!

Therefore, Wang Ye was fearless...

......

Indeed, Gavriil was left speechless by Wang Ye’s response.

Eventually, he could only shake his head helplessly and say: "You! Be careful from now on and don’t act recklessly. First of all, you need to understand that you’re now a figure of considerable significance. When you go abroad, you must carefully consider your own security in advance. If you had arranged to hire local security personnel on this trip, would this have happened? It’s best to avoid trouble when you can prevent it from happening. At home, your uncle and I may be able to protect you, but abroad, if something were to happen to you, we would be powerless to help."

Gavriil’s words were indeed well-intentioned and not unfounded.

Actually, after returning, Wang Ye had also reflected on this issue, recognizing that he indeed bore some responsibility for what had happened.

How should he put it? "A poor man suddenly becoming rich", Wang Ye hadn’t quite acclimated to his new role yet.

Subconsciously, he was still considering himself as an ordinary person.

However, the truth was, in either wealth or status, he had long since risen above the common folk.

Wang Ye could only scratch his head and laugh it off, changing the subject, "Let’s not talk about this anymore. I’ll be more careful in the future. By the way, I brought back some gifts from the States. Have a look and see if you like them. One is for you and the other, could you help me give it to Mr. Pu Jin?"

As he spoke, he bent down to pick up two small paper bags and placed them on Gavriil’s desk.

Clearly, they were two of the Patek Philippe watches he had bought the other day.

Gavriil was no bloke, spotting the logo on the paper bag, he knew it must be something valuable!

He hesitated as he assessed whether he should accept it.

Wang Ye hurriedly reassured him, "Don’t misunderstand, this is just me showing respect to my elders. Not only do you and Mr. Pu Jin have gifts, but also my Uncle Khodorkovsky, Uncle A Bu, as well as some of my friends."

With his explanation, Gavriil hesitated no more and accepted the gifts, albeit reluctantly.

But then he opened both boxes, comparing the two, asked Wang Ye, "Which of these two watches is more expensive?"

Wang Ye peeked and saw one was made of rose gold, the other platinum; both were complicated models with moon phase, but he wasn’t sure about their specific prices...

"Uh...the white one is more expensive, I guess. Platinum, it should be more expensive than rose gold."
