When Simon appeared at the reception in the hall downstairs, the atmosphere was very lively. A certain little guy who didn't recognize his life in the crowd seemed to be at ease. He just didn't know what to say, which caused everyone to burst into laughter. Seeing Simon, the little guy who was held in the arms of Lady A immediately leaned over to Simon, calling for his father to hug him.

So the atmosphere suddenly got a little weird.

Simon Westeros, of course everyone knows.

This reception tonight was initiated by the other party.

However, just now, no one knew that this lovely little girl was actually the daughter of Westeros, and some people who knew about Simon's personal situation were even more puzzled, but they did not doubt that, as this young man, appeared One or two illegitimate daughters is not surprising at all.

Simon took the little girl and saw that the child brought a piece of nut muffin that he had just grabbed to his mouth, so he ate it in one bite, and bit Nina's little hand, which made the little one giggled.

After an intimate interaction, Simon bit the child's ears softly.

The little girl was actually taught by Shur Shigina to be very sensible, but she is an extrovert who is completely opposite to her mother, and she is not afraid of the sky and earth, and she likes to pester Simon very much. However, when he heard Simon's words solemnly saying that he had business to talk about, he immediately nodded obediently, let Simon send her back to Lady A's arms, and waved goodbye to Simon obediently.

When Lady A left with the child in her arms, Simon began to greet and entertain everyone in the hall one by one.

Attending tonight are the senior government officials of Leningrad Oblast, where St. Petersburg is located, and the management backbone of the Westeros system in Russia.

Simon is familiar with the historical trends of Russia.

After the millennium, Russia was basically controlled by the former St. Petersburg Gang for twenty years.

As a result, Simon from the beginning focused the operation of the Westeros system in Russia on St. Petersburg, rather than Moscow where the oligarchs gathered, including Mikhail Friedman's Alpha Group, Westeros. A range of industries directly or indirectly controlled by the system in Russia, most of which are headquartered in St. Petersburg.

After a few years, the relationship between the Westeros system and the St. Petersburg gang that has not yet formed can be imagined.

Because of Simon's presence, several major factions in St. Petersburg, who were clearly at war with each other, appeared at the reception tonight in a friendly manner, and kept an eye on Westeros' movements in the hall. After all, the wealth and power of this young man are too great, and those oligarchs in Russia are completely paediatrics in front of each other.

Combined with Simon's operations in Ukraine, it's hard to say whether St. Petersburg will be the next Rivny.

If this is the case, it will definitely not hurt to have a good relationship with the other party, and the other party's attitude towards everyone tonight may also mean the future political situation of St. Petersburg. Simon can roughly understand the mentality of everyone, so he is more cautious.

After greeting and socializing for more than half an hour, we had basically talked about it. Finally, seemingly inadvertently, he came to a short middle-aged man with sparse hair and a rigid face, and raised a toast to the other party: "Hello, Vladimir."

The middle-aged man did not seem to be surprised that Simon called his name directly, and also raised his glass: "Hello, Mr. Westeros."

Simon's mouth had a smile, and he was straight to the point: "I know something about you, the gray bishop of Smolny Palace, oh, after Sobchak left, are you sure about your next plan? Stay in the city government. , or something else?"

The Smolny Palace is the seat of the city government of St. Petersburg, where Lenin directed the October Revolution.

The gray bishop of the Smirny Palace, to be blunt, is roughly the one behind the scenes. This is a nickname given to someone by all walks of life in St. Petersburg in recent years, because Sobchak is only a university professor, he has no ability to govern, and he likes to visit everywhere, so many of the affairs of the city government are actually handled by his former student. The Deputy Mayor takes care of it.

So one can also see the ability of someone.

When the middle-aged man heard Simon mention the title 'Grey Bishop of Smolny Palace' slightly sarcastically, he still smiled somewhat restrainedly, shook his head and said, "Not yet, but I will definitely not stay in the city government. already."

"Are you interested in working for me?"

The middle-aged man was finally a little surprised: "Huh?"

Simon said: "It is to enter the business world, you know, this is a common practice among Western politicians, serving the country for a few years, and then going into a private career after leaving."

"Mr. Westeros, I don't know much about business."

"Anyone does everything from scratch, no one is born capable of everything, and, to work for me, you don't have to be in business."

The middle-aged man hesitated a little, glanced at his mentor Sobchak not far away, finally looked over, and said, "Mr. Westeros, I admit that I am very moved by your invitation, but if you want me to help You work, you need to grant me a request first."

"what?"

"Use your influence in Moscow to help Anatoly get out of the predicament he's in right now."

Anatoly is Sobchak's name.

Simon nodded directly, and said again: "No problem, but you can carry out this matter yourself."

"Um?"

Simon said: "I just talked to some people, and soon someone will invite you to work in Moscow, the position will not be too low, then you can use your power to help

Mr. Buchak was out of the woods. The middle-aged man did not react for a while.

Simon raised his hand and patted the other's shoulder, and said, "Vladimir, one day you will understand, and then, you can pretend that what I just said was not said, or it was just a joke. However, don't reject the message from Moscow. invite."

After saying this, Simon left decisively and walked towards others.

In the past, one of the reasons why someone became Yeltsin's final chosen successor was actually a 'betrayal'. After a person entered Moscow, in order to help his mentor who was confronted by political conflicts escape from prison, he privately Use force to send the other party out of Russia, and then calmly go to Yeltsin to 'surrender'.

Because Sobchak is also an opponent of Yeltsin.

As a result, Yeltsin did not pursue this matter, but saw the loyalty of the other party at the cost of losing his job for his former mentor and boss, and finally made up his mind.

At this moment, no one knows what this less than 1-minute conversation in the eastern suburbs of St. Petersburg means.

Simon stayed at the reception for more than ten minutes and left.

The next day is June 1.

Saturday.

Simon set off again early in the morning, flying directly to the capital of Rivno Oblast in northwestern Ukraine. The airport invested by the Westeros system has been opened, and there is no need to divert from Kyiv.

Before Simon's arrival, another 'weeding operation' of the Westeros system in Rivne has started.

Unlike Russia, which is temporarily stable, Ukraine's economic downturn has not stopped.

According to the domestic economic data of Ukraine in the past few months this year, it is expected that Ukraine's gdp in 1996 will drop by about 10 compared with 1995. It is always difficult for ordinary people to intuitively understand these economic data, but if they are in it, they will understand what it means for a country's gdp to drop by 10 a year.

Now in Ukraine, with high unemployment, soaring crime rate, domestic political turmoil, and a mass exodus of people without hope, the situation is even worse than the Great Depression in the United States in the 1930s.

However, Rivno Oblast, located in the northwest of Ukraine, has almost become the only bright color of the country because of the effortless operation of the Westeros system.

For ordinary people, this is the best place to make a living.

Therefore, the population of Rivny, the richest man in Rivne State, has continued to soar to more than 700,000 people. After all, although fleeing to Western Europe seems to be a better way out, if you can stay in a familiar country, there are still too many people who are unwilling to leave their hometown.

On the other hand, in the eyes of other people, the vibrant Rivne State is undoubtedly a piece of fat.

Simon only needs to get control of this area. As for the benefits, he has never thought about enjoying it alone, or even making any profit from this dilapidated land, because he doesn't like it. Therefore, for many projects here, the benefits that Simon should share are not less given.

However, because of greed, some people in this country at this time are almost like those oligarchs in Russia who have fallen into madness, thinking that anything can be stuffed into their pockets.

So keep trying to get more from this area.

Precisely.

Actually asking for more from Simon.

When Simon's private jet landed at Rivney Airport, things were basically over, leaving only a few important matters for Simon to make a decision in person.

This time, he did not enter the Chengnan Villa again.

Simon and his party left the airport in the western suburbs and went directly through the city to Simon's hot spring manor in the north of the city.

Because of summer, it is Saturday again, and the prosperity and vitality of this city under the sun are even more obvious.

Of course, also in the sun, some things can not be hidden.

For example, when Simon's motorcade passed through a street in the north of the city, a building on the side of the road was still shockingly charred. Burnt taste.

In fact, just three days ago, at 2 am in the middle of the night, this building had just experienced an arrest operation.

Or the anti-criminal action.

The Rivney police attacked decisively and decisively cleaned up a gang based on this dance hall. During the exchange of fire, one policeman was killed and two people were seriously injured. The song and dance hall also caught fire during the exchange of fire.

As for the inside story.

It was Simon who was cutting off some tentacles that shouldn't be reaching into the city.

Before this operation, a deputy mayor who had just been transferred to Rivni at the beginning of the year was arrested by the Rivni police. At the same time, Celia Miller also personally represented Simon in a strong negotiation with Kyiv, which eventually forced some people compromise.

This is just one piece of this weeding.

There is also the interior of the Westeros system on the Rovno state side, especially the ufs.

Simon's control of this private army is far more strict than in the economic field. Some people want to make money in Rovno state. If they think it can be tolerated, they will turn a blind eye. However, who dares to try to make money? This private army is mixed with sand, and it completely touches Simon's red line, and it is not polite at all.

Therefore, this time, I did not hesitate to clear up a group of restless people again, and six of them disappeared directly from the world.

Arriving at the hot spring manor north of Rivney, this one can be said to be in full swing.

The ufs are directly stationed around the manor, and the manor has also been repeatedly checked by the Westeros family private team that arrived in advance to ensure that no

There are any eavesdropping devices or security risks.

Simon got off the car in front of the main villa in the manor, and Celia Miller greeted her with her assistant Emily.

In addition, there are eight girls standing in front of the villa who are as fresh and tender as spring onions.

Just like the scene when Simon arrived at the Chengnan Villa for the first time.

This is the second batch.

In fact, it was Grace who helped to choose.

elite has started the new year's Elite World Elite Model Competition in the global competition since April. Because of Simon's layout in Ukraine, Grace, who is closely following Simon's feet, also attaches great importance to the competition in Ukraine. Said to help Simon pick some more girls.

Apparently there are eight not far away.

It seemed that they were about the same age as the original six girls, the same young, the same tall, and the same scallions.

After saying hello, Simon ignored the girls, but noticed that Celia obviously had something to talk about with him, so he took her directly into the villa and into a study.

"Boss, before you came, I received a call from Moscow." Celia said, she had already sent a memo to Simon, and said, "The other party said her name was Tatyana, and she just talked to the boss last night. I see, she hopes that the boss will go to Moscow after the trip to Ukraine is over."

Simon took the document from Celia, which contained a very simple address in Moscow.

I roughly understand what's going on.

Actually it is understandable.

What Simon said to someone in that private house in the eastern suburbs of St. Petersburg last night was really shocking. In depth, this is almost equivalent to directly manipulating the future of a country, and it is not a broken effect like Ukraine, but a big country whose strength is still not to be underestimated.

This is one aspect.

On the other hand, what Simon said involved the arrangement of the Yeltsin family, and some simple words were really hard to convince.

So some face-to-face communication is required.

Moreover, it is obvious that the object of communication this time is definitely no longer Tatyana last night. Since the other party invited Simon to go directly to Moscow, it is actually obvious who to meet in private.

Glancing at the address on the document again, Simon ordered Celia to find a lighter.

Ignite directly.

Simon wasn't going to make the appointment.

The choice has been given, how to choose in the future is the other party's business. Intervening too much at this time, in fact, is very likely to have the opposite effect.
