Chapter 274: Summit Banquet

Winter usually comes early in Moscow, and winter nights are even colder!

For ordinary people, the most comfortable thing is to have a hot meal instead of hard-to-swallow black bread after get off work at night, and then watch TV programs with family members comfortably, and then go to bed.

But in this era of social turmoil, these small wishes have become luxuries.

Although Li Yi spent a full four hundred million Dragon Country currency on supplies and transported them to Moscow and more than a dozen surrounding cities, the overall quality of life has been somewhat alleviated.

But there are still many residents who have not been able to buy enough food, which is also unavoidable.

Although four hundred million supplies sound a lot, in front of such a big country, it is just a drop in the bucket.

There are still many people who are still looking forward to the country's current very chaotic situation to improve, and to see the long-lost spring in Moscow!

However, the facts do not seem to make them happy.

When some people couldn't even get enough food, the group of senior officials headed by Finance Minister Valov actually held a banquet called the "Peak Banquet".

As the name suggests, only the senior officials of the entire country and some entrepreneurs with capital can participate in this banquet.

For the senior officials, no matter how turbulent the situation is, as long as these rich gentlemen still believe in them and provide them with financial support, it is not a big problem.

As for the people's thoughts... is it important?

In fact, perhaps this is the fundamental reason why Big Brother will disintegrate. A regime that cannot win the hearts of the people is undoubtedly a failed regime!

The Big Brother Alliance has more than a dozen countries joining, but if you don't even care about the lives of the people in your own country, who will play with you?

That's not a joke!

Therefore, Li Yi actually sneered at this banquet at first, because what he hated most was these pretentious politicians!

These guys looked compassionate on the surface, and even the reasons on the invitation were written so openly, such as thanking Mr. for alleviating the crisis in his country and making world-renowned contributions. In fact, they just saw the value of Li Yi?

There is no such thing as pie in the sky in this world, otherwise, there would be lucky people everywhere!

However, although Li Yi was not very interested in the methods of these politicians, it was not only politicians who came to the banquet, but also some famous businessmen!

Of course, what Li Yi was interested in was what these businessmen had in their hands, such as oil, mines, or land, etc.!

Although the rupee will depreciate and the exchange rate of the rupee will plummet, the value of these things will not change!

Even if you put it for a hundred years or a thousand years, these things will only become more and more expensive!

If I can get familiar with you tonight, it will be convenient for us to come and go in the future, right?

With this idea in mind, Li Yi brought Wang Xia to the venue of the banquet, the Kremlin Hotel.

The venue of the banquet was not set here before, but near the Red Square. However, considering that there were too many people invited, after thinking about it, Valov decided to hold the banquet at the largest hotel in the entire Soviet Union, the Kremlin Hotel.

This hotel has a history of almost a hundred years, and it is not a place that ordinary people can afford to live in. It can be said that it is very grand, and even the door is covered with red carpet!

In this era, red carpets are very rare in Russia. First, red carpets are textiles, but the textile industry in Russia is basically blank, so this thing was brought by Li Yi...

Second, this red carpet cost tens of thousands of rubles. Because of its excellent workmanship, the person in charge of purchasing took a fancy to this carpet at first sight!

When Wang Xia drove the Mercedes-Benz S600 and took Li Yi to the door of the Kremlin Hotel, Li Yi was also dumbfounded when he saw the familiar red carpet.

"Hero, I remember that we seem to have got a batch of this stuff in China, right?"

Wang Xia nodded upon hearing this, and then said helplessly: "Brother Yi, why do you always call me hero? You were the first to call me that, and later even Brother Yu and the others started to call me that!"

Li Yi smiled and patted Wang Xia on the shoulder, and said in a deep voice: "Don't care about these details, what's the relationship between us?"

Wang Xia sighed, and then his attention was also attracted by the red carpet.

"Brother Yi, this thing is what we got! I didn't expect that the Russians didn't even have carpets!"

Li Yi smiled and said: "This can only show that our strength is very strong! Find a place to park the car, let's go down and take a look!"

Wang Xia smiled and nodded, and drove the car to the parking lot.

This Mercedes-Benz S600 is not an ordinary product, but an original Mercedes-Benz car!

This car was rented by Li Yi, but it is basically the same as buying it!

Although the value of this car is more than 1.5 million, this is still a conservative estimate! But Li Yi couldn't afford it, but this place was not in Longguo, and it would be too troublesome to buy a car and bring it back, so he spent 5,000 rubles and rented it for one night!

It was also the first time for Wang Xia to drive a car of this level, and he was inevitably a little restrained at the beginning.

But later he didn't take it seriously. According to Li Yi, when he got the dividends at the end of the year, Wang Xia could buy five or six Mercedes-Benz at a time!

This is not that Li Yi is talking nonsense, but a fact.

After parking the car, Li Yi pulled off his suit and got out of the car with a smile on his face. Wang Xia was also wearing a well-tailored suit. This banquet was quite valuable, so it was necessary to attend in formal attire.

When Li Yi just got out of the car, he originally thought that not many people knew him. However, within two steps, a white man came up to him and said with a smile:

"Are you Mr. Li? I have known you for a long time. I am Ivanov, the boss of Ivan Crude Oil Company!"

Crude oil company?

Li Yi immediately raised his eyebrows. Unexpectedly, the first person to greet him was the boss of a crude oil company!

But I don't seem to have much interaction with him. Why is this Ivan so enthusiastic about me?

Li Yi couldn't think of an answer after thinking about it, so he simply stopped thinking about it. After talking to the boss for a few words, he walked towards the Kremlin Hotel.

Next, Li Yi met many people who came up to say hello again. Ivanov also followed Li Yi all the time. Among these people were politicians and well-known entrepreneurs, and some of them were people Li Yi had written in newspapers before. The people I have seen online are all heavyweight guests.

Among these people, Li Yi is the youngest, and Li Yi and Wang Xia are also the only oriental faces, which makes them very unique.
