Siheyuan starts from a better life

Chapter 1118 Witness History
After greeting the other bigwigs, Jiang Yan sat obediently at the long table in the conference room next to Luzhkov and waited. In terms of seating order, both of them were relatively low. If they were ranked according to the order, these two people would almost be the last two people.

However, this also made Jiang Yan quite proud. Look at the people here, they are basically the people who will be omnipotent in the future in Russia. It is already quite good for him to get a seat in this small circle. Besides, he is just a businessman. He is actually satisfied to be able to attend this kind of meeting. Anyway, he is not planning to get an official position in Russia, so why bother to fight for these.

As a businessman, harmony brings wealth, and being good at dealing with people is the way to go.

Moreover, Jiang Yan felt that he was quite successful in this regard. Not to mention other people, just the people present, from Boris to Boris's driver, all of them had a vested interest in Jiang Yan. Casting a wide net was what Jiang Yan did. As for the money Jiang Yan paid out and what he earned, they were simply not worth mentioning. Using interests to bind was the most important thing. Therefore, they did not think that there was any conflict between Jiang Yan as a businessman and foreigners sitting here.

However, the only person Jiang Yan found funny was Luzhkov. He was a member of Boris's secretariat. No one was closer to Boris than Luzhkov. But in terms of position, he was indeed the lowest one here, otherwise he would not have become a brother in distress with Jiang Yan. But still, no one could look down on this person, and everyone treated him with a smile.

And there is a more interesting phenomenon. The mayor of Moscow has a relatively high status both in the Great Soviet and in the Soviet. This is why Boris was able to directly become the Chairman of the Supreme Soviet of the Great Soviet from the First Secretary of Moscow.

The same was true during the era of Comrade Vladimir. The power ranking of the Great Mao was the president, the prime minister, and then the mayor of Moscow, Kadanev. The speaker of the Supreme Council was even further back.

This is why, after Kadan was dismissed, a former deputy prime minister became the mayor of Moscow. But a few years later, Luzhkov came out on top and became the sun that never sets in Moscow for 18 years. This may have something to do with his role as Boris' secretary. After all, he is the person closest to the president.

The meeting started without much nonsense. Boris directly asked Gaidar to pass the document they wrote to everyone for viewing, and then Chubais explained it. He seemed extremely decisive, but Jiang Yan felt that he was a little impatient.

Of course, this version was the one they revised based on the suggestions put forward by Jiang Yan in less than half an hour. As for asking them to explain it, many things in this version have been modified, and the people involved, including Boris, are basically not very good at this.

After hearing the contents, Jiang Yan finally felt relieved.

But he admires the people in our country even more. This is a complete conspiracy, and it is a cannonball with honey.

At this time, Gaidar and Chubais were no longer nervous, and their faces were full of confidence. Although they spoke passionately and enthusiastically, the people listening below were calm and there was no ripple. Everyone present was a wise man among the wise, and they naturally knew the importance of this document in Boris's mind. If it had not been approved by him, how could it be brought up at the meeting?

To oppose them is to oppose Boris. They are all old foxes and are still trying to play tricks on others. Besides, Boris does not want anyone to question this document.

However, the eyes of the other old foxes present would occasionally glance at the faces of Jiang Yan and the others. They felt that they were too calm, so calm that it seemed as if they were not talking about these economic issues.

As for asking them to put forward their opinions, forget it. If they were discussing military affairs and war, more than half of them would be able to speak. They could even speak about politics, but they really couldn't afford to play with the economic industry. The key point was that they didn't understand these things!
Seeing these people, Jiang Yan sneered in his heart. The things that should be mixed in have already been mixed into this document. The rest is no longer important.

Chubais would look at Jiang Yan from time to time, and Jiang Yan would always smile or nod slightly, including Kadanfu. The two of them looked and acted like this. It seemed to give Chubais great confidence, and Chubais' tone of voice became much higher.

Chubais spoke in great detail this time, for more than an hour. After all, he couldn't expect a reckless man like Rutskoi to understand their carefully researched ideas as easily as Jiang Yan.

Thinking of this, Chubais subconsciously glanced at Jiang Yan. It is so hard to find a soulmate.

"Who has any objection to this document?" Boris knocked on the table and said in a deep voice. Rutskoi, who was on Boris's left, thought for a moment and said hesitantly, "Isn't this too radical and too hasty?", ignoring Khasbulatov who was gently pulling at his clothes.

Hearing this, Boris's face suddenly darkened and he looked a little unhappy.

"I'm not against this document, I'm just saying that we need to wait a little longer to make the document more complete." Rutskoi quickly added.

“Any reform will involve vested interests, and they will not kill any chance of reform.”

"Reform is a vigorous revolution. Only drastic measures can achieve our ultimate goal. All the gentleness, slowness, compromise, and ideas of taking everyone into consideration and making everyone happy are just unrealistic fantasies!" Chubais said directly.

Hearing this, Jiang Yan felt a little sweaty. This was his own word before, and now he said it out loud.
However, Boris repeated Chubais' words after hearing this, and spoke them word by word, very seriously and solemnly. He had also heard Jiang Yan say this sentence before, and Chubais also mentioned these two sentences repeatedly when reporting to him. They were really well said, and they touched his heart completely.

Jiang Yan rubbed his nose gently, feeling a little embarrassed. He believed that it would not be long before Rutskoi, Khasbulatov and other bigwigs would know that it was he who said these words. He did not care how these bigwigs would treat him because of these words, but that this was not in line with his low-key style.

Boris suddenly stood up, looking excited, waving his fist and said, "Like Chubais said, this is an epoch-making revolution that will sweep everything into the trash can, and time waits for no one. If we have made up our minds, we must act immediately! Only quick action can save the most people." After that, Boris glanced at Rutskoi.

"Do you still have questions?"

"No, as you said, we have to act as soon as possible." Rutskoi said seriously.

Only then did Boris nodded with satisfaction.

"Well, let's vote now. Those who agree to implement shock therapy, please raise your hands."

As soon as Boris finished speaking, arms were raised one after another.

Looking at the arms like a forest, and then looking down at his own arm which should have been extremely familiar to him, Jiang Yan now felt dazed, as if in a dream, and full of a sense of unreality.

He had become one of the few people who could decide Damao's fate. After a few breaths, Jiang Yan came to his senses, feeling mixed emotions.

If there is a history of Mao Zedong, or a book about the oligarchs, then the oligarchs' interference in Mao Zedong's policies must start with the hand he is raising now. He is now the so-called instigator.

But what does all this have to do with Jiang Yan? He is a foreigner.
