Chapter 733 Crimea
"I have already informed the driver in advance, and he is willing to keep us for a while until he can teach our people.
I hope you will ask as soon as possible if you have any questions. As for the regular maintenance personnel in the future, I am trying to find a way to contact them.
Once everything is confirmed, we will send them back. Their work procedures will require help from higher authorities.”
"Okay, that's thoughtful. No problem."
After paying the balance to the black man Sergei, Xia Ran bought a ticket to Leningrad.
In fact, Russia announced some time ago that it would change the name back to St. Petersburg.
However, it has not been fully implemented yet, so any name is fine.
It is located in the northwest of Miasto, on the Baltic Sea.
It is the gateway and largest channel connecting Russia and European countries.
It is also a water city with many lakes and extremely developed water transportation.
Xia Ran strolled around here for five whole days.
Not only did I stroll around the periphery to see some of the scientific research institutions here, I also visited several famous universities here.
The scenery is beautiful and the climate is pleasant, very nice.
This is probably the city in Russia that looks most like Europe.
There are many kinds of fish here, and Xia Ran secretly collected quite a few of them into the space.
With the idea that my trip wasn't in vain, I'll just take whatever I can.
Of course, I also bought a lot of cheap local things.
In fact, she wanted to clear out the design and manufacturing bureau here along with their production lines.
Unfortunately, the timing is not right and we can’t do that for now.
He couldn't let any of the creatures get out of the way, so he could only control his restless hand, stroll around, and then come back with regret.
Back in Mosike again, Xia Ran plans to visit Ermao's house.
As a result, the black Sergei got another Su-27. This guy must be addicted to making money.
The maintenance personnel have been found, and they are senior engineers, but it is unclear what their actual maintenance level is.
Xia Ran’s principle is, never mind, just get it back to China first.
I negotiated salary packages with the two employees and paid part of their salary in advance.
They settled the bill for the various small spare parts they brought with them.
Someone was sent to escort the two men onto a flight to Jin City.
This time's plane is easier to explain, as it has been in service for four months longer than the last one.
On the surface, there isn't much difference.
Xia Ran also paid the other party a deposit of 20 US dollars without hesitation.
"I don't have enough US dollars to pay the remaining amount, so I'll pay in RMB. You can send someone to exchange it when the time comes.
You also know that it costs more and more troublesome for us foreigners to exchange currency in your country."
Sergei agreed. It was indeed more troublesome to accept RMB, but it was not impossible.
He knew that Xia really didn't have much US dollars on him.
This transaction is very mature in terms of both path and experience.
The transaction was completed very smoothly.
After Xia Ran paid the last installment of the payment, she bought a plane ticket to Ermao and went straight to Ermao's house for a stroll.
The first stop is the Crimean Peninsula, as it is on the Black Sea.
The famous Soviet Black Sea Fleet is stationed here.
This is also where they deploy the most other troops.
What’s more important is that the Black Sea Shipyard is nearby.
This is the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier that Ermao was tricked into dismantling by the Americans after the disintegration.
Of course, we have to pay close attention to it.
Xia Ran wandered around for several days and encountered many blackmailers along the way, as well as people who asked for alcohol, cigarettes and money.
There are even quite a few drunkards.
The economic conditions here are far worse than those in Mosco, and the variety of goods is not as complete as in Mosco.
The most important thing is that it is more chaotic here. Maybe it’s because Xia Ran is a woman, so everyone wants to make a fortune here, which makes Xia Ran very annoyed.
Xia Ran had no choice but to hire two retired veterans, Daniela and Will, to be his bodyguards, and the situation improved a lot.
The talkative Weil heard that Xia Ran was curious about the soldiers here, and also saw that Xia Ran was not short of money.
They immediately said that they could take Xia Ran there to broaden his horizons, as they had acquaintances there.
"Then go ahead and open your eyes."
Xia Ran was taken to a military canteen that was still operating normally.
The people were indeed familiar with this place, and the guard even saluted Weir.
Xia Ran was brought in smoothly by just scanning her face, and she passed by another luxury car while driving in.
Weir explained: "These are merchants who come here to buy military supplies."
"Has this area been opened for trading?"
"Otherwise, we haven't received any food or wages for a long time, and we have to stay alive.
"Boss, do you want some goods? They're very cheap," Weir took the opportunity to ask.
"Let's take a look first and then talk."
"Okay," this is possible, and Weil became more attentive to Xia Ran.
The vehicle stopped in front of a particularly large iron gate and several people got out.
Will opened the door very skillfully.
What caught the eye were all kinds of guns and bullets, neatly stacked on super large shelves.
Xia Ran simply didn't know what words to use to describe it.
The gate doesn't look particularly large, but once you go in you'll realize how huge it is.
No wonder some people in later generations joked that the guns and ammunition produced by the Soviet Union were enough for everyone in the world to have one.
After reading this, I realized that what they said was absolutely true.
Following Weil's introduction, Xia Ran walked around and took a look. Wow, this was so spectacular and the quantity was so huge.
I used to think that the storage space I had was quite large, but it still couldn't compare to the amount of goods here.
What should I do if I really want to go back to the space to stock up?
Finally, after a lot of ideological work, Xia Ran was able to control his restless and extremely excited heart and hands.
This is too easy to lead people to commit crimes. Isn't this just seducing herself? It's too difficult for her.
The chatterbox Will kept on talking: "Isn't it spectacular? Are you shocked? Your country doesn't have so many of them, right?"
“Well, there really aren’t that many of these guys in our country, and I was definitely shocked.
It's even beyond my understanding. How can your country produce so many guns and ammunition?
When will you finish using it?" Xia Ran asked, pretending to understand nothing.
"There are eight such warehouses in this base. Tell me if it's a lot.
At the beginning, I wanted to compete with Old M, and I was afraid of being defeated by the other party, so I kept producing and producing.
Even other industries have been abandoned, alas.
The wooden warehouses here are sold by the ton, and these are all new goods.
There are also some second-hand goods collected from the battlefield that are even cheaper, and they are sold as long as you pay."
Xia Ran asked: "Are you familiar with this area?"
"After I retired from the battlefield, I couldn't find any other job, so I worked as a matchmaker for a while, just to make a living."
"Oh, I see. What about you, Daniela? Do you do this too?" Xia Ran asked Daniela, who was following silently beside him.
"I'm not, I just do some other odd jobs on a daily basis," Daniela answered very briefly.
Will explained: "He is too quiet to do this."
