Becoming a Russian Oligarch After Rebirth
Chapter 369: The Decadent Life of a Capitalist_1

Chapter 369: Chapter 369: The Decadent Life of a Capitalist_1

Natalia looked down on her, considering Angelina to be a "minor member". Angelina laughed it off and didn’t bother to argue.

It was true that, in terms of actual power, she as a minor member was far less influential than Natalia.

Natalia was undoubtedly the powerful Prosecutor of Simferopol!

A real person of power...

However, Angelina knew that once she presented Wang Ye’s grand plan, things would change.

She would become the most spectacular in the entire Crimea Peninsula!

Her influence in the Council would skyrocket and the chairmen would probably need to respect her opinion...

Natalia, seeing Angelina silent, changed the subject, lamenting: "I feel like I’m falling. As you know, I used to despise capitalists and oligarchs. Yet my best friend is dating a minor oligarch. And it’s thanks to your influence that I enjoy my current position and lifestyle."

Indeed, up until a few months ago, Natalia was merely an unknown Prosecutor’s Assistant. She wasn’t broke, but her life was definitely difficult.

Her car, a beaten-up Lada, was "inherited" from her father. Every part of it, except the horn, made a noise of some sort...

But now, thanks to Wang Ye, things were different.

She had transformed into the Prosecutor for Simferopol, the capital of the Crimea Peninsula!

She lived in the most luxurious apartment in the city center!

She drove a Porsche sports car!

Inside her huge mansion, which spanned over five hundred square meters, a butler and two servants tended to her every need. She embodied the decadent life of a capitalist...

Anyone else in her situation would probably be overjoyed.

But Natalia was different. She was an idealist...

Once it was her ambition to band together with like-minded "Davariches" and change the dire circumstances, leading Russia back to greatness as a determined Tsarist patriot!

She despised these infinitely successful oligarchs, considering them as thieves who had stolen the wealth of the country and its people, thus leading Russia into decline.

Unexpectedly, she had grown close to Mikhail, a "minor oligarch", and benefited from him immensely...

......

Angelina was indifferent to Natalia’s reflections.

She wasn’t as extreme in her thinking. Compared to her best friend Natalia, she was more of a "mediocre" person, lack of big dreams.

Well, that’s not entirely accurate. Angelina did have desires, but they were comparatively trivial.

She simply wanted to live a good life, find someone she loves, and live peacefully for the rest of her life.

If possible, she’d like to buy her own place in Moscow. The size didn’t matter. Even a small apartment would do. The location wasn’t important either, because Moscow’s metro system was fairly developed.

Having met Wang Ye, she had "exceeded" her expectations in under a year.

Hence, she was very content and happy, with no dissatisfaction in sight...

So she smirked at Natalia and retorted, asking, "Do you find your current lifestyle comfortable, or was it better before? Is your Porsche 911 not better to drive than your broken down Lada?"

Natalia chuckled awkwardly, failing to find a response.

Be it as it may, people still prefer a life of comfort.

It’s human nature, difficult to resist.

Futhermore, she was not an extremely committed person, and the current environment hardly promotes such personalities anyway.

She used to hold extreme views, but her perspective has since been readjusted by Wang Ye...

"Alright, be grateful for what you have. You should know how many people envy you. If we consider the classmates from your graduation year, most of them are still in minor roles like assistants. And you, you’re the Prosecutor for Simferopol! One more step up the ladder, and you might become the Attorney General!" Angelina laughed.

Upon reflection, Natalia had no complaints about her life. Whether it was her work or lifestyle, she was far ahead of her classmates from the same graduation year.

Her current complaints sounded like she was just creating problems out of nothing...

The following day, Angelina locked herself up in her study, working on Wang Ye’s plan.

What Wang Ye sent over was only a draft.

The core ideas were there, but Angelina needed to refine it for better results.

This plan was for Angelina to present at the Crimea Council. It was Angelina’s most critical task as a council member for the next several years!

Once the plan was effectively implemented, Angelina would become the member with the most influence in the council.

Unquestionably, for a member, influence equaled power...

.........

December 9th, the Crimea Peninsula, the Simferopol Council Hall.

Allegedly a Council Hall, it was merely an ordinary five-story building shaped like a ring. The exterior was made of ivory stone, and there was a small square in front of the open entrance doors.

The building was somewhat old, but it did not compare to those government buildings in Moscow.

The Crimea Peninsula has a small population and its administrative rank isn’t high either.

On the surface, it appears as a "country", but within Ukraine, its administrative rank is only equivalent to a "state".

Meshkov, the "president", holds a position equal to a Governor.

A meeting was scheduled for that day, so early on, vehicle after vehicle began arriving at the Council building, parked in the lot outside.

People disembarked, exchanged greetings and walked into the building together.

These councilors, considered a rather high-ranking class in the Crimea Peninsula, were not necessarily lacking in wealth.

However, judging by the vehicles they drove, none were particularly luxurious, rendering the economic development of the Crimea Peninsula in recent years as inadequate.

The Crimea Council only consisted of seventy-five members, not a large number.

The population and the area of the council are both small, and having seventy-five members arguably seemed like too many...

As many councilors walked towards the building, the roar of a car engine attracted attention. A sleek sports car pulled up in front of the council building.

The car was too eye-catching in this place!

When did Simferopol have such a luxury car?

Everyone’s attention was drawn to it.
