Chapter 53 - 53 Liu Kun’s Friend_1



Moscow Station

This time, Nie Zhenbang’s return trip seemed much more low-key.

Twenty million US dollars had been deposited in a Swiss bank through domestic connections. And it was stored in the state’s secret account. When Nie Zhenbang returned home, the state would naturally give him the equivalent amount in RMB at the official rate.

On the platform, Li Lixue and Tiger stood aside. Considering Li Lixue’s safety, Nie Zhenbang decided to keep Tiger behind. As a woman, especially one as beautiful as Li Lixue, Nie Zhenbang was indeed a little worried about her safety.

Seeing Mikhail and Ganokovich coming to see him off, Nie Zhenbang smiled and said, “My partners. Get moving. After I go back, I will immediately organize the goods. I look forward to our first start. Also, Evelina, I still have to ask you to take good care of her.”

Mikhail also nodded. After the agreement was signed, he specifically went to understand the market for Huaxia’s daily necessities, clothing, and food in his country. The result was a complete scenario of supply and demand, which gave Mikhail full confidence.

He looked at the beauty next to him. Li Lixue’s gorgeousness was not something ordinary people could compare to. Russian beauty is said to be plentiful, with skin as smooth as jade; however, Li Lixue’s beauty, coupled with the Eastern upbringing she received from an early age, gave her a Western face but an Eastern charm. This was not ordinary Russian beauty.

If Li Lixue were not Nie Zhenbang’s woman, perhaps, Mikhail could not resist either. Immediately, Mikhail also laughed and said, “Nie, rest assured. According to your custom, I should call her ‘sister-in-law.’ Please rest assured, even without Ganokovich’s relationship, your woman, I will definitely take care of her. With me around, no one in the entire Soviet Union would dare to touch

‘sister-in-law’.”

Mikhail spoke in Russian, but Li Lixue, who was fluent in Russian, stood by and looked embarrassed. Looking at Nie Zhenbang, Li Lixue’s expression was somewhat complex.

She said there was no relationship, but she is now working for him. Moreover, the exchange between the US dollar and the ruble shocked Li Lixue. How did this man’s brain grow? She underestimated him, who had known so much and made tens of millions of dollars in just a month. With billions of rubles in her hand now, Li Lixue could hardly believe it.

He claims to be interested in her beauty. However, aside from her initial worries, Nie Zhenbang barely paid any attention to her. Does she look that bad? Li Lixue even began to doubt her own appearance.

They say a woman’s mind is complicated and at this moment, Nie Zhenbang had no idea about Li Lixue’s complex feelings. He glanced at Li Lixue and laughed out loud, saying “Mikhail, thanks a lot. In the future, if you get the chance, you can ask ‘sister-in-law’ to help you find someone.”

After saying that, he especially said ‘thank you’ in Russian: ‘die and wash!’

After saying this, Nie Zhenbang looked at Liu Kun next to him and said, “Kun, I must say, their Russian thank you sounds quite disgusting. It’s called ‘die and wash.”

Liu Kun knew that Nie Zhenbang was joking on purpose. He laughed and played along, saying, “Third Brother, this you wouldn’t know. When a person dies, they naturally need to be washed. Since they can’t do it themselves, it’s only right that the living help. This saying is quite fitting.”

It was the same train and conductor as last time. At this moment, seeing the several Soviet people on the platform, the military badge of the Ministry of Defense made the conductor feel a bit relieved. He was glad he didn’t make a move; otherwise, he would be in big trouble.

After Nie Zhenbang and Liu Kun got on the train, the conductor took good care of them all the way. The return journey always feels much faster than the journey there.

The train arrived at Chita Train Station in the afternoon. The three of them casually found a hotel to rest and only headed toward the border after ten at night.

With Long, who was highly familiar with the Soviet Union army’s patrol regulations, they arrived in their homeland without any hitches.

In a hotel in Manzhouli, perhaps Long felt that his mission was complete. He stood up and announced, “Mr. Zhenbang, my task is completed. I’ll return to my unit now.”

Nie Zhenbang looked at Long. This young man was skillful and, more importantly, he was not nosy or talkative. He was a suitable candidate for a bodyguard. Moreover, his abilities in other areas were decent. During the past period, Nie Zhenbang had become accustomed to his services.

Nie Zhenbang then took out a stack of US dollars from his bag, put it on the table, and said, “Long, take this. Consider it a token of my appreciation for your hard work alongside Tiger over this period. Take this money home for your family’s expenses.”

At this moment, Long straightened his body and said solemnly, “Mr. Zhenbang, I’m only following orders. I can’t accept such a gesture.”

Not greedy for money and aware of the rules. These were merits. Nie Zhenbang said no more. This kind of soldier had principles. If he were to use his authority to pressure him, then he would be the one at a disadvantage. Looking at Long, Nie Zhenbang laughed and said, “Alright, if you insist, I won’t force you. But, Long, would you be interested in working with me? I’ll speak to your army chief. You and Tiger don’t have to worry.”

This time, Long did not resist. After pondering for a moment, he agreed, “I don’t mind, I’ll leave all arrangements to you.”

Nie Zhenbang dialed Yuan Xinghua immediately. Of course, Yuan Xinghua wouldn’t refuse Nie Zhenbang over a soldier and readily agreed. Long and Tiger didn’t even need to handle their discharge paperwork. The army department would take care of it and deliver it to their local armed forces.

On the return journey, they did not go through Northeast but passed through Caoyuan Province and directly ventured south into Jingcheng.

The next afternoon, just past five o’clock, the group finally rushed into Daliang City, the capital of Caoyuan Province.

After securing rooms in Prairie Hotel, Liu Kun suddenly proposed, “Brother

Nie, I have a primary school mate. His father was transferred to Caoyuan Province later and, as I heard, is now the province’s deputy governor. Shall I invite him over for dinner?”

In their circle, one would generally refer to people of the older generation in their family as old man or old lady but fathers are usually referred to as “old man”.

Nie Zhenbang gave Liu Kun a glance. Liu Kun’s family in Jingcheng wasn’t influential since his grandfather had become a martyr early on and his father was merely a district secretary. This evoked early maturity in Liu Kun compared to others.

Probably the recent operations had left Liu Kun quite awestruck. It seemed that he wished to give his childhood friend a hand up the ladder.

Nie Zhenbang chuckled. Naturally, he was not n?IVe enough to point it out. As a person in power, one must possess the skill to manage his subordinates. It’s not only about obtaining benefits for oneself, but sometimes about giving subordinates some benefits or even allowing them to give benefits to others. Only then would they help unconditionally. Nie Zhenbang believed that Liu Kun was not the kind of person to shoot without aim. If Liu Kun introduced his friend at this point and aimed at promoting him, Nie Zhenbang believed that Liu Kun would know where to draw the line.

Looking at Liu Kun, Nie Zhenbang showed indifference, “Oh? If you have a friend here, then of course we should meet him. Let’s first decide on a place, and then you can call your friend over..”
