Siheyuan starts from a better life

Chapter 1107 Reporting Work
"My opinion is to increase investment in foreign imported vehicles. After all, the lower-class Russians don't have much money. The really rich are those in the middle class. Excuse me for being frank, but these people basically have Volga cars. Obviously, Volga cars are already lagging behind the world, so you understand." Jiang Yan said with a smile.

"If necessary, I can promise you a quota of 20 handmade bulletproof Hongqi sedans every year. Do you understand?" Jiang Yan then threw a bomb.

Today's Hongqi sedan has truly carved out its own path after FAW's vigorous promotion and Jiang Yan's guidance. Although there are still some differences from other luxury cars with a long history overall, it is now basically a mid-range car. The handmade version of the Hongqi bulletproof sedan also has a place among high-end cars, and in many cases it is basically hard to find one.

"Oh, my dear boss, this is the best news I have heard today. However, can you increase the number of cars under your name and several Hua family cars by 100 cars per month?"

"No problem." Jiang Yan agreed in one breath.

As for the entire import and sales link of luxury cars, sales will definitely be no problem. After all, Arov now has a large number of contracts in his hands. There is no problem with the transportation link, especially the transportation in the Flower-Growing Country. There is no problem at all. All the channels that can be opened have been opened, and all the people who can be bribed have been bribed. The main people are from the Russian side. As for the Flower-Growing Country, it is a serious business. As for the route to Western Europe, after several rounds of fighting and a lot of money, it is also unimpeded.

The only problem now is the car quota. Jiang Yan believes that there is no problem. The only problem is the quota of those manufacturers. After all, their automobile companies are large global enterprises and they need to consider the overall situation. Moreover, increasing car production cannot be achieved by just saying a word, otherwise there would not be a phenomenon of queuing up to order cars.

According to what Jiang Yan learned, these manufacturers only regarded Arov as a large automobile sales channel and gave him a quota of about 2,000 vehicles per year, which amounted to less than 200 vehicles per month.

Two hundred cars are not enough even now, let alone in the future. In order to purchase these cars, Arov has set up offices in the countries where these automobile companies are located. The main task of the offices is to purchase cars, and then send the purchased cars to the Russian Bear in a unified manner.

"Don't worry about car purchases. I have some connections with these car manufacturers and can get some car quotas from them." Jiang Yan thought for a moment and then spoke.

After Arov finished his report, Yelina began to report on her own work. Now, due to the large number of products arriving in Moscow, the market has been close to saturation. Before, they had to choose between keeping warm and having enough food. Now that they can have enough food, the next step is to keep warm.

Now there are ten carloads of supplies every month, of which more than 80% are clothes and drinks.

"So far, our total sales are 140 million US dollars per month. The market is booming right now, and most of the stalls in our department store are rented out. Including this part, our net profit is about million US dollars per month. However, this also requires the turnover of the two hotels." Ye Lina's voice became smaller and smaller.

Compared with the Automobile Alliance, the number of people here is basically the same as over there, but the difference in income is huge. They don't even have a fraction of it, not to mention the subsequent upgrades and renovations. The money they earn is probably not enough.

"It's okay, Ye Lina, you've done well enough. We'll adjust some material proportions later. We also need to purchase from many stores. Keep up the good work." Jiang Yan gave verbal praise.

After Ye Lina finished her report, Cheng Linwen reported to the bank. "Currently, the bank can absorb 30 million rubles in deposits every month, which is more than three times higher than before. It's a pity that the exchange rate between the ruble and the US dollar has dropped too fast, even though the official exchange rate has reached below one to one."

Hearing this, Jiang Yan's heart moved, but it was just a short period of time. In two months, the exchange rate would basically plummet.

"No matter what the exchange rate is now, change it into US dollars for me. It will be of great use to me." Jiang Yan said.

"If you really can't change it, just invest more in some high-quality real estate or other industries. In short, you don't need to keep so many rubles in the bank, just maintain the minimum proportion." Jiang Yan thought for a moment and then spoke.

Several people discussed for a long time at Jiang Yan's residence. Two hours later, Jiang Yan and his group appeared in the restaurant.

At this time, Cao Bin and the others once again witnessed Jiang Yan's generosity. Foie gras, caviar, large chunks of meat, basically anything that could be found in the sky or on the ground, as long as it could be got, was basically available here. Moreover, in order to cater to Jiang Yan's taste, the staple food was made with white bread, which had a better taste.

Bread is an important staple food for the people of Oman. There are two types of bread: black bread (ржаной) and white bread (белый). There are many types of bread and they come in all flavors. The shapes include long, flat, square, and round. The most common bread is called "Paton", which has the largest sales volume, followed by black bread.

Big bread is also called Dama bread. There is only one bread oven in each farm in Dama, and each family goes to the bread oven to bake bread regularly. Usually, they only eat the stored bread at home, so the bread is made very large, and a slice is cut off when eating. Over time, a unique skill and custom have been formed. This large bread has a strong aroma and a slightly sour taste, which is more suitable for storage. It is round, with a diameter of up to 33 cm and weighs four or five kilograms.

However, this kind of bread is different from the one in China. Even the white bread has a very rough texture, because even when making white bread, they will subconsciously mix in some uncleanly removed husks to increase the fiber. And it’s okay when it’s out of the oven, but if it’s left for a few days, it will be as hard as a stone, and the taste is similar to our steamed bread.

When Jiang Yan lived here with Maozi before, he couldn't get used to this kind of bread. It was the chef who baked white bread according to Jiang Yan's taste, which was very similar to the white bread that was circulated in the Flower-Growing Family in later generations. Therefore, the chef here basically understood Jiang Yan's taste and made this kind of bread.

Seeing the food on the table, the others were fine, but the people from the flower-growing family were immediately shocked. They felt that Jiang Yan had spent all the money for their trip to the Soviet Union on this meal. He was really extravagant and inhumane.

I don't know if they were attracted by the delicious food, or were shocked today, or maybe it was because Jiang Yan, the host, didn't drink, but everyone was completely disdainful of the sour 82 Lafite on the side, and fully carried forward the fine tradition of eating hard. Basically everyone ate so much that their stomachs were full.

However, Jiang Yan just ate a little bit. Comparatively speaking, Jiang Yan still prefers to eat the dishes of our flower-growing family. After all, he has the stomach of a flower-growing family.
