Chapter 1339 Who is she?

Li Ye and Jin Peng arrived at the market and found it to be very lively.

There are many small vendors in this market, and there are not only Su people and flower growers, but also people with Central Asian faces.

The items sold are varied, including hero medals, silver tableware, and antique oil paintings, making it well worth a visit.

Moreover, many flower growers at the scene knew Jin Peng and kept greeting him, making the visit quite interesting.

But Li Ye regretted it after only a short while because there was no sun today and the temperature outside was too cold.

The official average winter temperature in Moscow is around minus 18 degrees Celsius, but this is an "average" and there are large fluctuations. Just like today, the outdoor temperature is definitely below minus 25 degrees Celsius, or even minus 30 degrees Celsius.

According to science, in an environment above minus 20 degrees Celsius, humans will not be able to survive without relying on external heat sources.

That is to say, in the wild with the temperature below minus 20 degrees Celsius, no matter you are jumping to warm up or doing boxing to sweat, if you don't have a fire to keep warm, you will be finished after a long time.

Therefore, in such a cold area, human survival is very dependent on heating facilities. Li Ye has been in Moscow for such a long time, either in a hotel or in a car, and the intervals between switching are very short, so he didn't feel anything.

But now, after walking around the open-air market for half an hour, Li Ye felt his fingers were numb from the cold.

He was wearing a pair of fine deerskin gloves, which were far less warm than clumsy hand muffs.

No wonder in the previous life, many people couldn’t understand the reasons why outdoor enthusiasts died of “hypothermia” when they heard about it!

There is air conditioning at work, heating in the car, and the false phenomenon that one can survive the winter with just a shirt and a jacket has caused people to ignore their fear of nature and unknowingly fall into the danger of hypothermia.

Li Ye said to Jin Peng: "Brother Peng, if you see suitable gloves, please help me pick one. My fingers can't bear it."

Jin Peng smiled at Li Ye and took out a silver wine jug from his arms: "One sip, it will last you two hours."

Well, why are there so many drunkards in Su'e? Isn't it because of the bad environment?

Three people took turns drinking from a small wine pot. After they finished drinking, Li Ye felt his body getting warm again.

Then he took a fancy to a pair of large, clumsy and thick gloves and enjoyed bargaining for them.

However, when he was about to pay, the other party gestured to Li Ye to pay in foreign currency.

Jin Peng whispered, "Don't pay in US dollars, pay in rubles."

Li Ye was a man who listened to advice. Amid the vendor's disappointed look, he paid for the gloves.

After leaving the stall, Jin Peng said in a deep voice: "This market is full of mixed people, and you don't know if the person in front of you has bad intentions towards you.

Moreover, the world is too chaotic. He might have been a good person yesterday, but today, because of hunger, he might become a robber. There are too many examples of people committing crimes for a few hundred dollars."

Li Ye agreed and said, "I know Brother Peng. When people are facing desperate situations, good and evil are only a matter of thought away."

“Hehehe.”

Jin Peng smiled and said thankfully: "That's right, if I hadn't listened to your advice back then, I wouldn't know whether I'm a good person or a bad person now!"

“Hehe~”

Li Ye also laughed.

If Jin Peng had been unwilling to help Li Ye go to the provincial capital to sell hemp candy, perhaps he would still be hanging around the streets now, or perhaps he would have had different experiences. Who can say for sure?

However, Li Ye still had a smile on his face when he suddenly saw an acquaintance - Zelyushhenko.

After parting with the union representative of Kamaz in the house warehouse a few days ago, Li Ye thought that Kamaz would contact him as soon as possible, but there has been no news to this day.

At this moment, Zelyushhenko was seen standing dejectedly behind a large stall, apparently selling something.

[Is he laid off? ]

Sun Xianjin also saw Zelyushhenko, looked at Li Ye, and then walked over together.

Zelyushchenko was obviously not a suitable stall owner. It was not until Li Ye walked to the stall that he came to his senses and looked up to see Li Ye.

Li Ye took the initiative to greet him: "Comrade Zelyushchenko, are you doing a second job?"

Zelyushchenko was stunned and asked, "What is a second job?"

"A second job is a part-time job. Our country has encouraged everyone to use their spare time in the past few years."

Hearing that the workers of the flower-growing family also set up stalls in their spare time, Zelyushenko's expression obviously eased a lot.

When dealing with someone who is in adversity, the best way is to use the common ground between the two parties to bring them closer together.

But Zelyushchenko shook his head and said: "This is not my second job. I am no longer an employee of KAMAZ."

Li Ye asked in surprise: "Why?"

Zelyushchenko remained silent and did not answer Li Ye's question.

Li Ye had no choice but to squat down and pick out items on the stall. When he saw that many items showed obvious signs of normal use, he guessed the dilemma that Zelyushhenko was facing at the moment.

If one is not really in financial difficulty, who would take out the tea sets in use to exchange for money?

Li Ye pointed at the items on the stall and said with a smile: "Comrade, your business scope is very comprehensive! Are they all souvenirs from your home?"

Zelyushinko shook his head and said, "It's not just mine, many of them are from my colleagues' homes, and they asked me to sell them together."

Li Ye saw it and said comfortingly: "The difficulties are only temporary, and things will get better in the future."

“Heh~”

Zelyushchenko laughed at himself: "Do you know how I was fired from the Kamaz factory?"

Li Ye: "."

"After I separated from you that day, I went to find Director Sumenkov to argue with him. Why did I trust the boastful White Elephant and give up cooperating with you? But Director Sumenkov falsely accused me of colluding with you to damage the interests of Kamaz."

Zelyushchenko's expression turned bitter: "I am a Bolshevik. I have always been strict with myself and must safeguard the interests of the masses.

But when I was falsely accused, most people did not speak up for me, and those who stood with me were punished."

Li Ye felt sad.

Because in his previous life, he had been backstabbed by his colleagues, and had also caused misfortune to come to his friends who had kindly helped him.

The result is that amidst repeated intrigues and deceptions, one begins to distrust anyone.

"Oh~"

Li Ye exhaled, and then said: "Aren't you from the Industrial Bureau? You can seek help from above."

“Hahahaha~”

Zelyushchenko suddenly laughed, and then said with a smile: "The White Elephant people are a bunch of liars, and the Industrial Bureau is also a liar. Moreover, they deceive their own people, and they deceive them so cruelly."

“.”

Li Ye was shocked and quickly figured out what Zelyushhenko meant.

But Zelyushchenko was a straightforward man and quickly solved the mystery.

"You know what? The Industrial Bureau did not agree with us workers selling our shares to the Cos Company, but they brought in another company and asked us to sell our shares to them.

But Koshi paid US dollars for the shares, you paid food for the technology, but what did the Industrial Bureau pay?

It’s an IOU, a fucking IOU.”

Li Ye took a breath and looked at Sun Xianjin.

Sun Xianjin was also completely confused.

[Who is that Sophia? ]
