When Chen Kangjie heard that Samidov met the future political strongman Ivan, he was somewhat excited. Ivan was a man with very political ambitions and political ideals. His wish was to restore the historical glory of Russia. The future Russian regime would be in his hands. In order to regain the position of a world-class strong country, he took tough measures both at home and abroad.

Of course, no matter what means it is used, it is really difficult to achieve a country without economic prosperity and development as the basis. At present, Russia's economy has plummeted, and the people's living standards have not improved, but have gradually declined. The economic scale has not improved in the ranking of world's major powers, and domestic politics has been unstable. Chen Kangjie remembers that after Ivan came to power, Russia's economy has made significant progress, which is also an important reason for his public support. However, for now, Chen Kangjie, an economic strongman, has not found any signs of economic recovery in Russia. Moreover, he has carefully observed that Russia's economy not only has no signs of recovery, but also lacks the conditions for rapid economic growth.

This is not nonsense. The conditions and means of economic development are just a few. Scientific and technological progress, capital investment, market expansion, that is, investment drive or market drive. If you have advanced product technology, you can attract investment and create a market. However, although Russia's technological strength is not behind, its technical strength is basically concentrated in the military industry and is magnificent in the civilian market. Even in military industry technology, Russia is now relying on its old capital and has no obvious breakthrough in innovation. Funds, Russia is now empty in the treasury, and it only has 10 billion US dollars in foreign exchange reserves at the end of last year, and tax revenue is worse than one year. On the contrary, in the process of privatization, China's resources and state-owned assets are lost in large quantities, creating a group of oligarchs who are rich and rich. Besides, the market, years of planned economy and attention to the abnormal development of military industry have led to the people's living standards being stopped and the people's purchasing power is low, which greatly compresses the potential of the market. Moreover, Russia's own population is also Only half of the United States, which makes it difficult for Russia to form a strong consumer market. Although Russia has rich resources, almost every country that relies on resources to get rich is manipulated. Just look at the wealthy oil-producing countries in the Middle East. Without the support and support of Western powers, those resources will not become wealth at all. Two Iran is a typical example. Both countries have abundant oil and natural gas, but these two countries do not look rich at all. The reason is that they do not have a Western power as a backer. Specifically for Russia, they have always regarded themselves as a world power. It is a bit impossible to rely on Western powers. It does not conform to their political pursuits and the national self-esteem. What's more, Russia has tried. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, it has been trying to maintain good relations with the West in order to restore economic prosperity. However, the fact before it is that this road cannot be done and has been around for almost ten years.

Thinking of Ivan and Russia, Chen Kangjie thought of the scene when he went to the Soviet Union ten years ago. At that time, he was just a half-year-old child, but he returned with a full load after a trip. At present, Chen Kangjie has several oil fields in Siberia, but the scale of mining is not large. This is not that Chen Kangjie does not want or cannot be able to exploit it on a large scale, but that Russia's policies are still unstable. His oil fields were bought at that chaotic time and may be taken back at any time. Therefore, the oil stored by Chen Kangjie is still mainly imported from the Middle East. Chen Kangjie knows that the major oligarchs are very happy now, but after Ivan comes to power, their good days will come to an end. They either go into exile or are arrested, and the rich assets they stole were also taken back by the government.

Now that his subordinates actually knew Ivan, Chen Kangjie did not expect that from Samidov's expression, their relationship should be more than just a simple understanding. If it were just an ordinary cognitive relationship, Samidov would not have to "rob the way" solemnly. When he thought that Ivan used to work in the KGB, Samidov and others were also a member of the KGB, Chen Kangjie understood what was going on. Besides, when Samidov and others told Chen Kangjie why they left the Soviet Union, Chen Kangjie had some doubts, but it was not convenient for him to ask clearly at that time.

Chen Kangjie shook his head, let his mind be as clear as possible, and break free from this sudden news. He still has many situations to understand. I hope that this subordinate who has followed him for ten years will not deceive him.

"In Moscow, Vladimir Ivan was the one who protected you to leave." After calming down, Chen Kangjie asked in spectacular way.

Samidov raised his head, with a little surprised look in his eyes, "Mr. Jie, it turns out that you know everything."

"I guessed it, but this is not too difficult. Although I have never met your friend, I know that like you, he has worked in the KGB and you have already met him." Chen Kangjie said calmly.

"Well, I've seen it," Samidov nodded, "I recognized him in front of the Russian embassy in the South, and was excited to let him recognize me. If it weren't for his help, the four of us would not have left the border at all. Maybe, now we don't know where we died." Samidov said with blurred eyes, perhaps because he remembered the unpleasant experience that year, and felt a little melancholy.

"I remember when we first met, I asked you. At that time, you told me that even if I am your boss in the future, you wouldn't tell me for his safety. Why do you have to tell me again today?" After asking, Chen Kangjie took out two cigarettes from the cigarette box on the small table, handed one to Samidov, and held it himself.

Samidov took the cigarette, took out the lighter and lit it for Chen Kangjie, then lit his cigarette and took a big breath.

Perhaps it was the nicotine of cigarettes that played a calming role. After Samidov took a few puffs, his mood completely calmed down. "In the past, we didn't plan to tell you, but we have been together for ten years. For ten years, you have been very good to us, trusted us very much, and gave us everything, so that our families could live a life that was impossible before. If we used to treat you as our boss for the sake of our livelihood, then now we are truly impressed by you. In the future, we will have no other choice except following you, so I think we should not hide it from you anymore. Now we have a new identity, a new job, a new life, and Ivan is not the Ivan in the past. Now Yeltsin values ​​him very much. We believe in you. As long as you don’t tell the things about that year, his safety will be completely fine. You are the boss who gives us everything. He is the boss we respected and gave us great help to us. And your purpose in coming to the South is exactly the same. We are really in a dilemma, so we can only tell you the truth. According to your intelligence, we think you should have a way to resolve it."

"Haha, you really look down on me." Chen Kangjie smiled self-deprecatingly and took a puff of cigarette, "You plan to go back to Russia in the future."

"No, no, that's impossible. I can't go back anymore. Samidov was dead before. When we go back, it's a risk to us and Ivan. What's more, what do we do when we go back? It's impossible to go to the KGB again. Our lives have changed drastically. To be honest, if we go back, we won't be able to adapt to our family. Maybe we are not suitable. I just said that we can only follow you in the future, and there is no other choice." Samidov quickly waved his hand and said.

Chen Kangjie believed that what Samidov was telling the truth. Not to mention that Yeltsin has not stepped down yet, even if he stepped down, if he knew about it, Samidov and the others would have a dead end. Besides, they followed Chen Kangjie and had generous salaries every year, had big houses in Hong Kong, had good aristocratic schools, and their parents could easily live up to their old age, and had Filipino maids at home. It was indeed not easy to ask them to give up all this. This is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, and from extravagance to frugality. Moreover, they no longer had a legal identity in Russia. Even if Ivan used means and power to get them into new legal identity, it would be difficult for them to integrate into their previous lives. It seems that Samidov still thought clearly about these.

This time Samidov met Chen Kangjie in advance and told him all this. The purpose was to not want a conflict between him and Ivan. No matter which side's interests were damaged, it was something he did not want to see. Even though they had received special training before, after ten years of ordinary life, the humanity in their hearts became much stronger. What's more, both Chen Kangjie and Ivan were very kind to Samidov and others. He could not bite his conscience and watch the two of them fight. The key is that even if he had to bear it, he would not be able to put his own position.

From yesterday to today, Samidov has been suffering. He has difficulty making a choice. As a result, he has discussed it repeatedly with his three good brothers for one night. In the end, Alyosha made a decision with one sentence from him. Alyosha said that this matter would be left to Chen Kangjie to handle. They believed in Chen Kangjie's character and Chen Kangjie's wisdom, and could handle this matter well.

"Okay, since you don't plan to go back, that's great. Let's continue to follow me in the future. By the way, you have seen it. Did you tell him everything about me?" Chen Kangjie stood up and patted Samidov on the shoulder, walked away, stopped and asked.
