Becoming a Russian Oligarch After Rebirth

Chapter 706: Chapter 706: The Best Session of Duma_1

Hearing her grandfather say this, Rossiyana creased her lips, seeming to want to laugh but not quite managing.

She ran her fingers through her somewhat unkempt hair and responded, "Misha and I are still young, we don’t want to get married so early. Besides, isn’t this dowry not enough?"

The last sentence was said in a joking manner.

But Constantin thought seriously about it and nodded, "Indeed, this dowry is not worth you and Mikhail. When you two are ready, I’ll see what else can be added as a dowry. Our family has a lot of young people in your generation, but only a few are promising. Maybe, the future of this family will depend on you."

The big families in Europe, unlike those in our country, don’t stress about "eldest son, eldest grandson"!

Plenty of daughters or granddaughters "take over". Just look at the queens of Britain for several generations, and Empress Catherine.

So, the chance of Rossiyana taking over the family in the future is not low!

Of course, Constantin certainly doesn’t want to give all the wealth accumulated by several generations of his family to "outsiders", let alone see the glory of his family slowly disappear.

So, by then, even if Rossiyana takes over the family, there will undoubtedly be plenty of restrictions.

For example, she cannot merge Constantin family’s wealth with her husband’s side.

From Rossiyana’s future children, one must be named "Constantin" to be the family’s next head...

......

It must be said that having a private jet has indeed been very convenient.

Boarding the plane, he dozed off for a while, and when he opened his eyes, he was already back in Moscow. Wang Ye had already scheduled dinner with Gavriil in advance.

He wanted to inquire about the transfer of shares in the Russian Gas Industry Group.

Oh, and he had also invited Aleksey, the current Minister of Energy, to the dinner. Even though the Russian Gas Industry Group is not managed by the Ministry of Energy, Aleksey must know some insider information.

It must be mentioned, the Russian Gas Industry Group is held in high regard and is directly managed by the government, similarly ranked to the Ministry of Energy.

Of course, like central enterprises under the control of the department level at home, although the rank is the same, the actual power and jurisdiction vary significantly...

Aleksey was promoted from the chairman of the Russian Gas Industry Group to the Minister of Energy.

This shows that in the actual "sequence" of the government, the Minister of Energy is higher than the Russian Gas Industry Group.

As for who the current chairman of the Russian Gas Industry Group is, Wang Ye hasn’t paid attention.

After all, a character of that level, in Wang Ye’s eyes, is just an unimportant minor role...

.........

At six o’clock in the evening, they met at the usual place, in the regular private room of the Turandot Restaurant.

Wang Ye, Gavriil, and Aleksey gathered together.

The three had just arrived, the dishes weren’t served yet, and while sipping tea and chatting casually, Wang Ye mentioned the "Promoting Birth Rate" proposal and the increased tax on a few giant companies.

These propositions were passed at the Duma Congress. Gavriil and Aleksey were aware of them.

But those increased tax matters were unknown to many within the Duma. Both Gavriil and Aleksey were clearly hearing it for the first time.

Because Wang Ye had held high positions for a long time, he didn’t look like a young man in his early twenties.

His powerful aura made it easy to overlook his age.

Even Gavriil and Aleksey, who were significant figures in the eyes of ordinary people, were not only cautious in front of Wang Ye but also very polite and even somewhat careful with their words.

Just a year ago, Wang Ye, in front of Gavriil, used to refer to himself as the junior.

But now, Gavriil clearly didn’t dare to treat him as a junior anymore.

"Haha, there’s such a thing? It’s rarely seen in the previous Dumas. The previous Dumas really didn’t do much work and just ruthlessly voted. This current Duma is really good, considering financial difficulties when introducing new laws, and even actively solving them. I can say that this Duma is the best in history! With you and Chairman Grezlov taking action, it should all be settled, right?" Gavriil laughed heartily, praising Duma endlessly in his words.

It was normal since, like he pointed out,

The previous Dumas, to put it bluntly, were filled with representatives just waiting around hoping for things to happen.

Everyone ran for Duma Members just to gain "social status" and gild their name.

After all, no one wanted to do work.

It’s not that Duma lacked power, but no one wanted to be the pioneer. Also, with so many Duma Members, there were many factions.

There was no authority between them, and their meetings were nothing but chaotic arguments.

But this current Duma with Wang Ye was not the same.

Firstly, Chairman Grezlov was a very responsible chairman, and his influence in the first faction was relatively large, and the first faction had more seats in the Duma.

This provided a hard condition to do work.

Then, there was Wang Ye, a new rising star in the political arena, who not only was unafraid of responsibility but also actively requested to take on responsibilities, even undertaking significant tasks!

The two worked well together, and they had made many significant moves in the past six months.

Although Duma’s influence had slowly grown, the Kremlin did not mind because the Duma in Russia was under a great deal of restriction when it was initially designed.

It’s nearly impossible for it to oppress the Kremlin like the Congress in the United States...

Because everything that Wang Ye had done was beneficial to the country, and to a large extent, it had promoted the development of the national economy.

It’s like helping the government do things that they wanted to do but didn’t have the ability to do!

......

Aleksey also chimed in, "Only you lordes from the Duma could do this. If it were our Ministry of Energy, hehe, those giant enterprises wouldn’t even care about us at all."

This was quite normal, judging from the last time the Ministry of Energy and Yukos, and the Russian Gas Industry filed a lawsuit in the Duma.

In most cases, the Ministry of Energy didn’t have much restraining power over these giant enterprises.

Let alone this time it was cross-industry taxation, the Ministry of Energy couldn’t manage the communication and financial industries.

Energy, finance, communication, these three industries were the most profitable in Russia, and they also contained the most profound aspects!

They were not easily controlled by ordinary people. As a "small" Minister of Energy, Aleksey would never dare to worry about these few industries.

Don’t forget why the former Minister of Energy stepped down!

Wang Ye nodded and casually said, "Chairman Grezlov and I have divided our responsibilities. I am responsible for dealing with the energy and communication industries, and Chairman Grezlov is to deal with the financial industry. I have no problems on my end now, but I don’t know about his situation, although there should be no major problems."
