The next day.
When Chen Dong woke up again, it was almost noon.
A day apart feels like three autumns.
Moreover, he and Julia hadn't seen each other for a year.
When a lone man and a lone woman meet, it's like dry tinder meeting a raging fire; they're bound to do things that can't be described.
At this moment, Chen Dong felt physically and mentally exhausted, as if his entire body had been hollowed out.
We entered the living room.
"Chen, you're awake. Go wash up first, dinner will be ready soon." Yulia poked her head out from the kitchen and greeted him with a smile.
"Okay, right away," Chen Dong replied, turning to go to the washroom.
At the dining table.
Chen Dong kept staring at Yulia, making her blush and her heart race.
"Chen, why are you staring at me instead of eating?"
"I just feel like you're acting unusually different today?"
Julia asked in surprise, "What's different?"
"Exceptionally beautiful!"
"Go away! Just eat your food... All you ever say are sweet nothings." Yulia rolled her eyes, but secretly she felt a surge of joy, as sweet as if she had eaten honey.
They say absence makes the heart grow fonder, and that's absolutely true! That's exactly how the two of them are right now.
What should have been a half-hour meal took them twice as long because of their sweet romance.
After the meal.
The two then got down to business.
Yulia: "Chen, you didn't come here just to see me, did you?"
How could he possibly respond to that? No matter what he said, he would inevitably end up talking about Julia. He might as well just tell the truth honestly.
"Yes, that's right. Besides coming to see you and understand the current situation here, I also wanted to ask about our company's current situation and whether we have developed any business with Er Mao."
Upon hearing this, Yulia rolled her eyes at Chen Dong with an expression that said, "I knew it," before replying.
"It's not good, it's absolutely terrible, Chen. I can't imagine why our country has become like this. The ruble is depreciating every day, many people are unemployed, and the money they earn can't even buy a loaf of black bread. Why is this happening?"
Upon hearing Yulia's words, Chen Dong didn't know how to respond.
Can he say that he already knew all this?
So, how will Julia view him?
Chen Dong could only remain silent.
Yulia didn't expect Chen Dong to give her any answers. The reason she told Chen Dong these things was because she regarded him as someone to rely on.
After saying that, Yulia sighed and continued.
"Chen, thank you."
"Thank me?" Chen Dong asked, puzzled.
Yulia explained, "The channels you left behind were a great help; at least, we never lacked supplies."
"These are all things I should do," Chen Dong said with some emotion.
The original history changed as the so-called "shock therapy" was implemented.
Russia also opened up its capital market at the opportune time.
However, due to inflation in recent years, even opening up the capital market cannot solve the problem of domestic price suppression.
In this situation, foreign investors are unwilling to come in, resulting in insufficient circulation of goods and further devaluation of the ruble.
Even government officials are unwilling to settle their salaries in rubles.
Because this means that the salary you receive will quickly lose its value.
It's important to know that since 1991, the ruble has depreciated by about 50% every year.
In some exaggerated years, the figure even reached 100%, although it didn't quite reach the point where burning charcoal was less effective than burning paper money.
However, such hyperinflation is extremely rare in modern society.
However, Chen Dong also knew that the next few years might be even more difficult.
Because a currency crisis that will soon sweep across Southeast Asia is about to occur.
This crisis not only swept across Southeast Asia, but also eventually evolved into a catastrophic financial crisis.
American capital exploited the economic problems in Southeast Asia, giving these countries, whose economies had only taken off a few years ago, a very vivid lesson in monetary policy.
"Yulia, you don't need to worry about daily necessities with China as your strong support. I will negotiate with relevant domestic companies to expand the scale of transactions."
"Really? That's great."
Chen Dong smiled knowingly and nodded affirmatively.
Strictly speaking, China at this time had not yet integrated with global trade.
It remained unscathed during the ensuing Asian financial crisis.
Furthermore, during the defense of Hong Kong, a large amount of foreign exchange was sent to Hong Kong, resulting in a crushing defeat for the international hedge funds led by Soros.
Chen Dong's proposal to increase trade is beneficial to both countries.
It should be noted that many factories established in China in the 1980s had too many surplus goods and no new production tasks, so they were forced to stop production and eventually had no choice but to go through bankruptcy and restructuring.
Many people have thus transformed themselves into entrepreneurs.
On the contrary, it is the ordinary people at the bottom of society who suffer.
The situation is the opposite in Russia. They have abundant resources of all kinds and their heavy industry is extremely developed.
The top-heavy situation arose simply because all national strength was concentrated on heavy industry while light industry was neglected.
If exchanges and trade between the two countries can be increased, it will undoubtedly be complementary to both countries.
After finishing discussing trade, Chen Dong said...
"Yulia, there's something else I'm here for. Does our company have any business with Er Mao?"
Chen Dong was also very emotional when he mentioned Er Mao.
