Chapter 462 Complementarity
"Of course I heard that a leader you followed officially took office, and then I thought about whether I should give you a little more support!"

Wang Deming tactfully expressed his intention to vigorously expand the Soviet light industry market. "I have invested in clothing, electronics, and automobile factories in mainland China over the years, and I can provide a lot of materials to the Soviet Union."

"Oh, yes, there are also canned food and down jackets."

"I still have some samples on the plane that came with me this time."

“We can barter, just like we did in the 50s.”

Hearing this, Alexei's eyes lit up.

Although Diana was arranged to go to Hong Kong in order to bring in more light industry and other daily necessities from outside, the Soviet Union's foreign exchange was limited after all, especially as oil prices had fallen in the past two years.

In order to ensure space competition with the United States and maintain the welfare benefits of senior government officials, it is already stretched to the limit and can't really play a big role.

He knew that Wang Deming was rich, but he didn't know how much money he had. But he knew that if China was willing to exchange light industry, food and other areas with the Soviet Union, then the Soviet Union would have nothing to worry about.

Are you still worried that the lower-class peasants will take to the streets to protest in order to queue up to buy bread?

How can it be?

He quickly twisted his butt a few times, the chair creaked, and his face was full of ingratiating smiles, "Dear De!"

"Our relationship over the years," he pointed at Diana and himself, "is no different from that of brothers."

"Just rest assured, how can I not trust you?"

"As long as you can transport China's supplies to the border, I can mobilize the Far East Military Region to help you transport the goods!"

"You know the power of our family!"

"But the relationship between China and the Soviet Union is still so tense. How are you going to deal with it?"

Wang Deming made a gesture of counting money with his hands, "Alexei, have you forgotten that there is a port in Vladivostok?"

"What Vladivostok? That's Vladivostok." Alexei immediately defended.

"OK, no matter what it's called, it cannot be denied that it is the only port in the Soviet Far East, and the other one is on the Black Sea."

"I am also a major shareholder of Global Shipping Group and Orient Overseas Container Line. I own two large shipping companies and have sufficient shipping capacity."

"It depends on how much you can give?"

The fishing hook has been dropped. He came to Alexei not for small business like diamonds, and he couldn't get involved in the oil business, so the best way was the barter trade between China and the Soviet Union.

At this time, the Soviet Union's heavy industry was still very intact, although the economy had begun to decline significantly and there was a shortage of materials on the market.

But a lean camel is bigger than a horse, at least it can still hold on.

For example, it was not until Christmas of 91 that the dissolution of the Soviet Union was officially announced through Gorbachev's microphone.

If he could only gain a slight advantage, the Soviet Union's technology and scientific and engineering talents would be what he should keep in mind.

"Haha! Okay!" Alexei took the vodka and poured himself a full glass, "De, I'll drink first as a show of respect!" He drank it down in one gulp.

He wiped his mouth with his sleeve and said, "I will meet with the top management right away. You and Diana will stay in this manor today."

"At the earliest, it will take a week, at the latest, a month, and the higher-ups should be able to hold a meeting to discuss it."

"Haha, let's distribute it!"

"You know it, but why are you asking?" Alexei glanced at Diana secretly before leaving and whispered, "De, next time you come alone, I will make good arrangements for you."

"We have so many beautiful girls in the Soviet Union!" "Haha." He patted Wang Deming's shoulder heavily, turned around, got in the car and left.

"What did he say to you last? So sneaky?" Diana quietly came to Wang Deming's side without anyone knowing when.

"Haha, guess?" Wang Deming raised his eyebrows.

"Virtue!" Diana rolled her eyes again, and then sighed after a while: "You finally understand why I must put all the children by your side to educate them, right?"

"I realized a long time ago that after Alexei returned to the Soviet Union, he had lost himself as more and more people surrounded him and more and more flatterers."

"It wasn't obvious when you went to Hong Kong with me last time, but now, look at me?"

Diana and Wang Deming returned to the room and did not continue talking about related topics.

Or talk about the children studying abroad. Have they spent the money they were given? How much is left? What is it spent on?

Next, let’s talk about what materials the Soviet Union used to exchange goods with China?

The reason for this is that Wang Deming knew that the Soviet Union must have eavesdropping devices in the manor.

The most powerful or impressive thing about the Soviet era was their KGB, which is also related to the propaganda in Hollywood movies.

More than a month passed during this wait, during which time they were not restricted and were free to travel anywhere.

So we went to Red Square, the State Museum of the Soviet Union, Alexander Gardens, the Kremlin, St. Basil's Cathedral, etc. Every day we just ate and played, and we were not in a hurry at all.

Finally, more than half of 85 had passed and the temperature in Moscow had dropped, and Alexei finally brought the decision of the Soviet upper echelons wearing a bearskin coat.

"De," he said, sticking out his tongue in a hot voice and spraying half a bottle of Siwu Tang beverage in one breath, "the gentlemen above have finally reached an agreement."

"Tsk tsk, you have no idea how fierce they were in their fight for the share of textiles and food. They almost came to blows."

After a burp, he asked, "Now it depends on what you need."

After saying this, he hooked his finger behind him, and a man in Soviet military uniform handed him a booklet.

He threw it to Wang Deming and said, "Take a look. These are the exchange materials and the corresponding rates that they specially asked someone to specify."

"If you have any ideas, feel free to tell me."

Wang Deming lowered his head and flipped through two pages, then handed it to Diana, "Then let's celebrate in advance with a hot vodka drink."

“I like Moscow sausage very much, but it’s not easy to buy.”

"Haha! Eat whatever you want!"

Alexei ordered six bottles of vodka to be brought out from the wine cellar and arranged for the chef to prepare the dishes.

Soon, some cold dishes, such as sausages and pickles, were served. Alexei filled his glass and raised it high:
"Come on, let's drink to our friendship!"

"cheers!"

It was not until the next day that Wang Deming looked through the exchange booklet, or the exchange agreement.

After flipping through it briefly, Wang Deming sneered disdainfully, "Tsk!" Did he really think that the Soviet Union could suppress the whole world?
The value ratio of the exchanged goods, calculated according to the market price, showed that the price of domestic goods was lowered by 2/3, while the price of finished steel in the Soviet Union was increased by 2/3. This ratio is similar to that of Item 50 in the 156s.

Wang Deming threw it directly on the floor and asked Diana to leave the Soviet Union.
