Chapter 1443: Localization

Chapter 1445: Localization

This time, Du Fei was sent to Moscow as a special representative after careful consideration.

Du Fei's identity itself has a certain specialness. He is not completely official, but he has great influence.

In addition, because of the route starting from Borneo, Du Fei has established an extraordinary relationship with some people in Moscow.

This time, Du Fei went to Moscow with a very important mission, to test whether there is a possibility for the Speed ​​Union to reduce its military strength in the Far East.

With Huaguo's breakthrough in intercontinental missiles, it has a real strategic deterrence capability.

This makes Huaguo more willing to cut some defense expenses and use them in economic construction.

But this intention must be responded to by Moscow, otherwise both sides will be afraid of both ends.

In addition, Du Fei also wants to take a close look at what the Speed ​​Union is like.

At this time, in the world before he crossed over, it was less than fifteen years since the Soviet Union Incident.

The building was not built in a day, nor did it decay in a day. If it is really rotten to the root, you can see the clues now.

Now, because of the changes caused by Du Fei's appearance, many things can no longer be mechanically applied to the experience and results before the time travel.

For many problems, Du Fei must be more cautious than before to draw conclusions.

Du Fei sat on the latest modified K-8 passenger plane. Because of the internal soundproof decoration and the specific background music, the vibration caused by the aircraft engine was offset, which greatly improved the comfort of this K-8 passenger plane.

Even Du Fei did not expect this effect.

Later, when he inquired about the person in charge of this work, he suddenly realized it.

The ancestor of this engineer surnamed Wu was actually a servant of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, specializing in serving the emperor. He was dedicated to doing things with excellence and had a strong service spirit.

This kind of Du Fei can't be said to be good or bad. Anyway, after mastering the relevant science and engineering knowledge, he used all his enthusiasm to reduce the noise of passenger planes.

In the end, the domestic K-8 passenger plane caught up with the world's advanced jet airliners in terms of noise.

Du Fei sat in the middle of the plane and looked out through the porthole.

The plane took off, and the city on the ground quickly became smaller.

Du Fei twisted his neck to look for a while before retracting his gaze and began to lower his head to read the relevant materials prepared for this time.

Most of them were people he needed to deal with.

The plane flew to a level course, and the flight was very stable, which did not affect reading.

Because there were still a few days before the commemorative event, Du Fei did not fly to Moscow in one breath.

Instead, he stopped briefly in Irkutsk and picked up Natasha to go together.

According to Natasha, she had a very important "friend" in Irkutsk to introduce to Du Fei.

Du Fei was not opposed to making friends with more important people in Sulian. To be able to catch Natasha's eye, this person must be extraordinary.

Taking off from Beijing, the plane flew northwest and arrived in Irkutsk in about 1,600 kilometers.

There was no need to detour in the middle, and it would take about two and a half hours.

Du Fei set off at around nine in the morning and would arrive around noon.

After reading the information for a while, Du Fei raised his head and moved his neck, and looked out through the porthole again.

Under the thin clouds, there is a big lake embedded in the vast Xianbeilia Plain. It is Lake Baikal, which we call the North Sea.

Lake Baikal has not thawed yet. It looks like a huge blue gem from the sky.

Irkutsk is right next to Lake Baikal, about 50 kilometers away in a straight line.

Next to it is the Angara River flowing out of Lake Baikal.

Du Fei's plane landed at the airport in Irkutsk, and Natasha had come to pick him up in advance.

Du Fei got off the plane and felt the bitter cold of Xianbeilia as soon as he walked out of the cabin door.

In April, the capital has already entered spring, but here is still dominated by the cold winter.

Fortunately, Du Fei is physically strong and well prepared, wearing a down jacket.

Going down the gangway, he saw Natasha.

This woman is really cold-resistant. In this cold weather, you can still see her waist in the outline of the coat, which shows that she doesn't wear much inside.

"Du, welcome to Lucia~" Natasha came forward and gave Du Fei a hug enthusiastically.

Du Fei responded with a smile, but noticed that Natasha said Lucia instead of Sulian.

This may be deliberate, or it may be Natasha's habit.

Then Natasha introduced a young man who came with him: "This is Shelov, my classmate and close friend, and my sister's fiancé."

Du Fei knew that this Shelov should be the person Natasha wanted to introduce to him, and smiled and shook hands and said: "Comrade Shelov, it's nice to meet you."

Shelov smiled and said: "Comrade Du Fei, I have heard of you a long time ago, and I am also very happy to meet you."

After a simple greeting, Natasha did not have any taboos and began to read Shelov's family background.

According to her, Shelov's family and Natasha's family are old friends. During the Great Patriotic War, Natasha's grandfather and Shelov's grandfather were in the same division, and they were truly friends who had lived together for a lifetime.

It's just that Shelov's grandfather was not very lucky and died before the end of the war.

But Shelov's father and uncle were very ambitious and had strong personal abilities.

With the help of his grandfather's comrades, the family did not decline, but flourished, becoming an important force in the Far East.

As for Natasha bringing Shelov in and introducing him to Du Fei, it is not surprising.

To put it bluntly, it is profitable.

Du Fei got off the plane and had to stay in Irkutsk for a day, and then fly to Moscow with Natasha tomorrow.

This is Shelov's territory, and he must entertain them throughout the trip.

The three of them left the airport in a Volga car and soon arrived at a sanatorium on the Angara River.

From a distance, it can be seen that the scale of this sanatorium is not small. The car stopped in front of a building with a very fast punk style.

Shelov got out of the car, threw the car keys to a young man who came out to greet him, and then took Du Fei and Natasha inside.

As soon as I entered the door, I immediately felt a wave of heat coming towards me, which seemed to be two different worlds from the cold temperature outside.

Natasha immediately took off her coat, revealing the Lenin suit and trousers inside, and a pair of very high heels on her feet.

Compared with the 37-38 feet of most women in China, the feet of the Sulian people are thin and long. Many women wear size 42 and 43. The thin and long feet can wear high heels very high.

Du Fei and Shelov also took off their coats and handed them to the special waiter.

Shelov explained: "Please rest assured that the staff here are very reliable and will never do anything outside of their work."

Du Fei understood what he meant, and he never put anything useful in his pocket after getting off the plane.

The three walked in and did not meet anyone else.

I don’t know if this is a place to entertain Du Fei alone, or if there are other passages for others.

Then Shelov arranged a very luxurious Russian dinner.

Although the cooking method is not too surprising, the ingredients are really amazing.

Shelov was also very patient. He didn’t talk about business at the table until after the meal, and suggested going to the sauna.

Natasha did not participate in this step. It’s not that she is shy. It should be an excuse to give Du Fei and Shelov a chance to be alone.

Du Fei was not polite and confronted Shelov with "honesty".

With a "sizzle", Shelov poured a large bucket of water on the sauna stone.

Instantly, a wave of hot air came out.

In the sauna room, the hot and humid air was inhaled through the nose, making people feel a slight suffocation.

Du Fei sat down and wiped his face with a wet towel.

Shelov sat next to him and said with a smile: "The route you cooperated with Natasha..."

Du Fei listened and smiled in his heart, knowing that he was finally going to talk about business: "Are you interested?"

Shelov said: "Of course, being able to eat fresh fruits and vegetables in winter has a very good response in the vicinity of Moscow. I think if we can learn from the successful experience in the Far East..."

In fact, Du Fei had guessed what he meant early on, but the purchasing power of the Far East was far less than that of the more affluent areas around Moscow and Eastern Europe.

Before this, the Moscow route always departed from Kuching and stopped in North Gauri.

Hokkaido and Beigaoli, including some materials from the Northeast, will be installed here and shipped to Moscow.

On the contrary, the Far East, which is geographically closer, was directly skipped.

The reason why Du Fei did this before was mainly to reduce unnecessary resistance. Whether in China or in Sulian, the Far East is not easy to touch.

Until this time Shelov took the initiative to find him.

This could not be Shelov's personal behavior, nor was it a sudden whim of the Shelov family, but it involved the entire Far East local group.

Otherwise, Natasha would not have come forward to make connections.

But it is not difficult to see from Natasha's attitude that there is still a certain uncertainty in this matter itself. Her family should have agreed to it because they could not refuse.

But they stopped at the right time and did not get involved too deeply. If the situation changes in the future, they can withdraw in time.

As for Du Fei, he had no resistance to this. In fact, Shelov's appearance this time was a bit like sending him a pillow when he was sleepy.

Behind Shelov is the local faction in the Far East.

Although the current Speed ​​Union is far from the level of local vassalization, it is also a fact that local power has grown since Porezhne came to power.

Especially in the Far East and Central Asia, the relationship between local power and local garrisons is getting closer and closer.

Shelov said: "Although the population in the Far East is not large, the entire Far East has 700,000 troops..."

Du Fei raised his eyebrows: "You mean... this part is done by us?"

Shelov said: "You have the source of goods, and I have the channel, why not?"

Du Fei tutted his lips, leaned on the pine board behind him, thought for a moment and said: "I want 20% of the net profit, and the rest you can distribute it yourself."

Shelov was stunned, not because Du Fei wanted too much, but too little.

He knew that the cooperation between Du Fei and Natasha was basically this ratio.

But don't forget what Natasha's background is. She is a woman who can really have a lot of power in Moscow.

Shelov originally thought that there would be a verbal battle on the distribution of profits, but who knew... Instead, he was a little confused about what Du Fei was thinking.

Although at first glance, Du Fei is at a disadvantage because he takes 20% and gives 80% to the other party.

But don’t forget that this is pure profit. In fact, Du Fei is not at a disadvantage at all, because most of the entire industrial chain is controlled by Du Fei.

How much is the cost of fruits and vegetables before they are put on the plane, the fuel cost of transportation, the depreciation and loss of the aircraft, the profit of the airline... Du Fei says how much these costs are.

In fact, Du Fei can eventually take nearly 40% of the profits in the entire industrial chain.

The remaining profits are shared with Sulian. As for who they give or not, or whether they simply give it to the people, it has nothing to do with Du Fei.

As for Serov, it was an unexpected gain for Du Fei.

The emergence of Serov illustrates a problem, that is, local groups in the Far East have developed interest demands independent of Moscow.

And based on this demand, substantive actions were taken.

This is a very important signal for Du Fei.

This shows that for many things, he does not necessarily have to go through Moscow, but can directly communicate with local factions to reach an agreement in advance or exchange interests.

Realizing this, Du Fei placed Serov at the same level as Natasha, striving to get tangible benefits to the local group behind Serov as soon as possible.

Once the interest binding is completed, future matters can be easily discussed.

…

An hour later, after the "sincere" meeting with Du Fei, Serov settled in Du Fei's residence, then left the sanatorium by car and returned to the city of Irkutsk.

A residential compound for cadres located near the prefectural government.

Serov met a middle-aged man whose appearance was exactly what he imagined.

This man was his father, the most powerful man in the entire Irkutsk region.

"Father~" Serov knocked on the door politely and came in.

The middle-aged man raised his head and glanced at him, then continued to work with his head down, and at the same time said lightly: "Have you met that flower-fruit man?"

"Yes, father~" Serov briefly explained the situation of his meeting with Du Fei just now.

When he was halfway through speaking, the middle-aged man raised his eyebrows and put down the pen in his hand, with a hint of amusement in his deep eyes.

After Serov finished speaking, he chuckled and said: "This person is willing to give out benefits."

Serov lowered his head slightly and remained silent.

He wasn't sure what his father's attitude was.

Relatively speaking, his uncle was more concerned about this matter.

The middle-aged man stood up, walked around from behind his desk, stood by the window, looked at the snow-covered yard outside, and took out a cigarette from his pocket.

Serov immediately went over, took out a lighter and helped light it.

The middle-aged man took a sip and spit it out slowly: "In this case, let's not be ignorant. We can get fresh fruits and vegetables in winter. I believe the residents of the Far East and the comrades in the army will be very happy."

Serov secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although he expected that his father would not let go of this opportunity to win people's hearts, not knowing the supply channels was a hidden danger.

Once the supply of fresh vegetables and fruits is started in advance and people get used to it, then the supply is suddenly cut off, and the impact will be even greater.

It would be better not to have it in the first place.
