Chapter 89 The Despair and Hope of Konon
Crisco is the capital of the Republic of Northern Russia. In the eyes of ordinary people, the capital of this once superpower should be very prosperous, but that is just an ideal, and the actual situation is not like this. At this moment, on the streets of Crisco
, there are many Northern Russians walking in a daze, they have no direction or goal, their eyes are lifeless, like walking zombies.
Konon is also a member of this wandering army. Although his mental state is also extremely confused, compared to others, his clothes are still very luxurious, at least not in tatters, and he can still maintain a certain level of neatness.
Konon is like this because some of his experiences are different from others. After all, during the economic turmoil in Northern Russia for more than a month, Konon has enriched his life experience.
First of all, he inexplicably controlled hundreds of millions of rubles. Although the money did not belong to him, and he did not have the right to invest the money privately, he could control such a large amount of money and be able to face the counter in a securities company.
Shouting about selling 500 million rubles was enough for him to brag for a year, not to mention that his supervisor later privately gave him a large sum of money.
It was precisely with this money that when the ruble plummeted again, his life was not so miserable. It was only when President Nikolaevich announced that he would abolish the old ruble two days ago that he was confused again.
.
The reason is very simple, that is, all the money he has in hand is old rubles. Now that the old rubles are about to be invalidated, what will he do with the money in his hands?
Why can’t we use the good ruble? This ruble has been used by us since we were born. We buy things and eat with old rubles. Why don’t we use it now? So what should we do with the money we have now?
Isn’t this government authorities killing people and pushing us to a dead end? I think as the masters of this country, we cannot be so indifferent. We must do something.
At a fork in the street, someone shouted loudly into the loudspeaker. A large crowd gathered there, and everyone surrounded him blankly, as if his words were the truth.
Konon knew that it might be another newly established party recruiting supporters, or simply a way for foreign companies to defraud labor. They used the method of promising wishes to describe a bright future to the North Russians who had reached a dead end.
Deceiving people to work abroad.
Konon has seen too many of these during this period. Even his sister got on a ship going abroad yesterday. According to the description of the foreign company, it was going to the United States, but in fact Konon knew her.
The ship's logo is the logo of a Dutch company. Maybe one day, if I have the opportunity to go to the Netherlands, I can find my sister who was deceived into going abroad in a corrupt bar.
Konon understood his sister very well, and also understood that her sister really had no choice. Although he had made a lot of money through a sudden windfall, with the abolition of the old ruble, his money had become a piece of waste paper.
, the family became financially strapped again.
In addition to these, the closure of securities companies is also very important, because the last experience of mastering 500 million rubles gave him a certain understanding of the capital market, so after he received his reward, he also
I started to learn how to trade stocks and foreign exchange, and I made a lot of money following the market. However, who knew that the securities market suddenly closed down the day before yesterday, and I couldn’t get out the money I put in the market.
Sometimes Konon really wants to cry loudly. Why does this society want to eat people like this and push them all to death?
A piece of newspaper floated over in the wind and hit Konon in the face. Konon took it off, glanced at it subconsciously, and then immediately tore the newspaper into pieces because he saw a so-called economist in the newspaper.
, is singing praises for the current abolition of the old ruble and the replacement of the new ruble, saying that this is a major decision by Mr. President and a measure to save the North Russian economy.
These bastards have simply blinded their eyes. Konon yelled, "How many people in Crisco have their money turned into waste paper overnight, how many people are about to go bankrupt? Can't these people see that they also saved Northern Russia?"
Economy, are we saving our flesh and blood?
There are also securities companies. Why did Nikolaevich shut down the good guy? Is this Mr. President really a spy sent by the West? His purpose is to subvert our country.
Konon stopped after scolding for a while, because he knew that it was useless to curse here, no one would hear it, and no one would help him except God, nor would he help those Northern Russians on the street who were as poor as himself.
People, but are there really such people?
Konon asked himself this in his mind. He knew very well that the answer was disappointing to despair. At this time, he heard someone calling him. He turned around and saw a very ordinary Volga car parked not far away.
Here, my supervisor was waving to me from the car window.
This shocked Konon. He immediately ran over and said, "I'm sorry, the leader. I came out today for something very important."
Before Konon could finish speaking, his supervisor said: We will talk about your absenteeism later, but now there are still very important tasks to be assigned to you. You first get in the car and follow me.
After saying that, he opened the car door. Conon was stunned for a moment when he saw the actions of his immediate boss. He didn't react at all at first. It wasn't until his leader repeated it again with a frown that he suddenly realized, and then
He immediately got into the car happily.
How could Konon be unhappy, because he remembered that the last time his supervisor came to him was when he first came into contact with 500 million rubles.
Could it be that this is the case this time? But haven’t the securities companies been shut down now?
Leader, why are you looking for me this time? Are you asking me to operate another 500 million rubles? I heard that the exchange rate of the new rubles issued by the central government is much higher than before. I will definitely be given more money this time.
Konon asked his leader, but his leader glared at him with dissatisfaction and said: Why are you asking so many questions? You just go along and I can’t treat you badly.
With a hot face but a cold butt, Konon got a bad rap from his leader, but this did not hinder his excitement. After all, they were all big shots. They must have a higher vision, think longer than themselves, and have more channels than themselves.
Why do you worry so much about someone who is richer than yourself? Anyway, they won't plot against a little person like themselves who has nothing.
With this idea in mind, Konon patiently drove to the Chelf Market. The car stopped at the door of the coffee shop opposite the market. Konong followed the leader into the coffee shop and came to a place next to the window.
edge position.
Chairman, I have brought someone to you.
Konon's supervisor first asked Konon to stand still before reporting to the people sitting there. As the leader reported, Konon also understood the other person's identity.
That is Mr. Ilbedov, the chairman of United Bank, who is now the richest man in North Russia. So are the Chinese people next to him the driving force behind the last incident?
Konong remembered that he had met Mr. Zhou Ming last time. If there was only one Chinese person, Konong was sure that he would be able to recognize him, but now there are four Chinese people here. Konong
Their faces are basically the same, so it's hard to tell them apart.
After listening to the report, Ilbedov smiled and asked Konon to sit down, then turned to the youngest Chinese next to him and said: Mr. Zhou Ming, this is the Konon from last time.
Listening to Ilbedov's words, Konon felt his heart beat several times. At the same time, he looked at Zhou Ming intently. Konon could feel his pupils dilating because he was really excited.
Yes, this is Zhou Ming, the real big boss behind the scenes who paid him 500 million rubles for his operation last time. I did meet him last time. He is so young and can have such a huge wealth, and he has been so rich since just now.
Judging from the tone of Erbedov's words to him, he was also impressed by the richest man in Northern Russia. I didn't expect that I would be lucky enough to see him today. This is really lucky.
Konon was shouting in his heart, his hands were shaking uncontrollably. He could imagine that he would definitely have another bad luck today, just like last time.
Zhou Ming looked at Konon's excited look, smiled and said to him: Hello, Mr. Konon, my name is Zhou Ming. We may have met somewhere before, but we didn't really know each other. Let's get to know each other again now, please.
Don't be so nervous, just relax.
Zhou Ming's words reached Konon's ears like magic, quickly calming his inner excitement.
Konong took a deep breath and nodded and said: Hello Mr. Zhou Ming, I am very honored to meet you.
Mr. Konong hopes to do things for me and receive a high reward from me, Zhou Ming said.
Conon seemed a little embarrassed when someone revealed his true feelings. He smiled dryly and didn't know what to say. He could only sit there, lowering his head and rubbing his hands.
Zhou Ming said at this time: Mr. Konon, you don’t have to be embarrassed. I don’t think there is anything to be embarrassed about. After all, the current economic situation in Northern Russia is like this. It’s not easy for everyone. Everyone wants to make money, and in this world
It is material and profit-oriented. No one is a saint who will always give selflessly. It is natural for Mr. Konon to want remuneration.
Being enlightened like this by Zhou Ming, Konong felt even more embarrassed. However, Zhou Ming didn't have that much time to enlighten him here. Zhou Ming then asked him: But before I talk to you about business, Mr. Konong, I have something to ask.
you.
Konon raised his head and looked at Zhou Ming doubtfully. Zhou Ming asked him: What do you think about the fact that you are abolishing the old ruble and replacing it with the new ruble?
Konon hesitated for a moment, and Zhou Ming encouraged him and said: There is no one else here, and we will not spread your words out. Mr. Konon, you can feel free to speak boldly.
I understand Mr. Zhou Ming, Konon nodded, gritted his teeth and made up his mind and said, I think abolishing the old ruble is a very stupid thing, at least for us ordinary Northern Russians, it is simply a disaster.
