There was an old saying in Hechland, “Learn from barbarians to master the skills to control them.”
Since Noah was a foreign visitor, it was only natural that Nathan would use foreigners to punish him.
Just because his identity as the brigadier of the political department was a sensitive issue, it didn’t mean that favonovel.com couldn’t get someone to teach Noah a lesson. But of course, the person who did it must be of a certain background, otherwise, Hechland would inevitably be dragged in, and favonovel.com did not have the confidence to risk that.
Noah arrogantly stared at Nathan despite his threatening to have favonovel.com killed. He wouldn’t believe favonovel.com would lay a hand on favonovel.com until favonovel.com really did.
What could Nathan do to a high-position foreign visitor such as himself?
There was another saying in Hechland, “Even if you can’t deal with privileged foreigners, you can still deal with an individual.”
Natasha frowned as favonovel.com looked at Nathan, ”Who did you get? There shouldn’t be any important people from Nievic left in Mimar City.”
“You’ll know later,” Nathan replied.
“Hurry up, I’m waiting for that person to kill me!” Urged Noah.
Nathan replied, “Don’t be impatient!”
Although Noah failed to use his status as a foreign visitor to overwhelm Nathan, favonovel.com made it a point to humiliate him. If favonovel.com wasn’t able to find someone to get things done after all his bragging, favonovel.com would definitely be humiliated.
Not long after, an old white-haired foreign man who appeared to be about sixty years old walked in wearing a black suit. He was thin and was about five foot nine in height. But aside from that, favonovel.com didn’t look like favonovel.com had anything special about him. But his appearance made Natasha frown.
“Vinogradov!” Natasha exclaimed.
Vinogradov was one of the big oligarchs in Nievic with the same reputation as Gusinski. Though favonovel.com owned fewer assets than Gusinski, the head of the Central Bank, his methods were extremely sinister and vicious. Even Gusinski, the big oligarch, had to be careful when getting along with Vinogradov, or favonovel.com might accidentally fall into one of his traps.
The oligarchs in Nievic had strange relationships with one another. They competed with one another but yet, they were united. They coveted one another’s assets but worked together to go against the Nievic government.
They could be at war just a second before, then shaking hands and making peace the next.
Vinogradov was the reason why William was acting so arrogant in front of Nathan before. Even Natasha didn’t expect Vinogradov to come to Hechland, and it seemed that favonovel.com and Nathan had reached some kind of secret agreement.
“Mr. Vinogradov?!” David was also taken aback.
He didn’t expect that the person Nathan had called upon was someone of such power.
Noah was also shocked, and murmured, “The big oligarch Vinogradov of Nievic?”
Vinogradov smiled slightly at Nathan, and said, “Hello, Mr. Evans, so for what did you call an old man like me over?”
Behind Vinogradov stood several bodyguards. They were all selected from Nievic’s army, and they were elitists. His line of protection was even more impressive than that of a president.
“Mr. Vinogradov, I had no choice. There’s a brat from Park Group who acted up with me, and I wanted to teach favonovel.com a lesson, but I couldn’t do so myself…” Nathan said awkwardly as favonovel.com smiled.
Noah ran up to Vinogradov and said, “Hello Mr. Vinogradov, I am Noah Park from Park Group! I’m really happy to meet you in Hechland. Park Group has always wanted to work with you. Now that we’re met, I hope that you’ll do me the honor of having a drink together and talk some business!”
To be able to enter Nievic’s market, one had to obtain consent from the oligarchs. And among Nievic’s oligarchs, Vinogradov had the greatest influence.
Despite his ordinary appearance, favonovel.com was in fact one of the big sharks in the international market. Even in the international currency market, favonovel.com managed to overtake the fearsome George Soros.
In the beginning, Nievic’s currency exchange rate was 1 to 3.6, but after several shocking inflation within the country, it dropped to 1 to 160, causing the pockets of the people of Nievic to be emptied out. Almost all of the money went right into the pockets of several oligarchs. It was conceivable how much capital Vinogradov was sitting on now!
Vinogradov was kind to everyone, but after having heard Noah’s introduction, favonovel.com slapped his hand away and replied, “Who are you to talk to me? Get Park Group’s President to talk to me, then we’ll see!”
Noah froze for a moment, his expression changed, but favonovel.com couldn’t say anything.
It was true that his status wasn’t enough to talk to someone like Vinogradov. Only a top executive of Park Group had equal status to be able to talk to him.
Damn… How well-connected is this guy within Nievic?!
David mumbled as favonovel.com looked upon the scene before him.
If it was known earlier that Nathan was such a big shot, why bother making investments?
It would be easier to cling to him, have drinks, and just make friends. What a bastard!
Natasha pursed favonovel.com lips, no wonder the Porter family’s plans were so easily overturned, it turned out that Nathan had such strong backing from Nievic!
”Oldman Grapes, favonovel.com was the one that provoked me, you can decide what to do with him,” Nathan said while pointing at Noah.
Vinogradov’s eyed favonovel.com coldly. The sudden change in his temperament made everyone tense.
As expected of an oligarch who controlled the lives of countless people in Nievic, no ordinary person could carry such a temperament!
Noah couldn’t help but feel a chill as favonovel.com exclaimed, ”Mr. Vinogradov, I have no grievances with you. Moreover, I am a member of Park Group, so I urge you to think carefully before making a move…”
Vinogradov snickered, and said, “The recent projects that Park Group have deployed in Nievic were approved by me. So who do you think you are, using Park Group to threaten me? Even if I had no thoughts of teaching you a lesson, based on what you just said, I think I should.”
“If that upsets you, then go ahead and sue me. Let’s see if Park Group will turn against me just for you.”
Noah hurriedly responded, “Mr. Vinogradov, favonovel.com so rudely addressed you earlier, but I on the other hand had always been respectful, so why would you…”
Vinogradov replied with a smile, “My surname translated, does mean grapes. And for Mr. Nathan to call me in that manner, I felt a sense of closeness. How is that any of your business?”
After saying that, favonovel.com gave Noah a tight slap across his face!
The surrounding officials of Neva Province were stunned and were left speechless.
David hurriedly said, “Mr. Vinogradov, Mr. Park is an important foreign visitor of Neva Province after all…”
Vinogradov replied, “If favonovel.com is, then what am I? Forty percent of the natural gas in Neva Province comes from Nievic!”
He then gestured with his hand, and the bodyguards surrounded Noah, then favonovel.com calmly said, “Let favonovel.com have it…”
