Hogwarts on the Tip of the Tongue

Chapter 528: Bets and choices

In the current situation, as long as you can eat and live, it is already the best job.

There is a pile of cold rubles and bonds, but no food can be bought. This is arguably the most terrible thing in this era ...

Since the failure of the global cereal harvest and the failure of the Soviet Union ’s policy to centrally control agriculture, the former Soviet Union has been unable to make payments to foreign suppliers of imported grain on schedule, leading to a substantial suspension of freight trade.

If people once thought that the long queue to buy sausages was already the worst situation a few years ago, then since 1991, people have been everywhere to buy cane sugar, cream, rice, salt, flour, potatoes and other basic foods. The phenomenon of lining up long dragons has become a normal state of life.

Even as the director of Nikolaev Shipyard, Makarov has n’t had a decent dinner in a long time. In this environment, if there is a turkey and a few sausages, it ’s already It's a luxury.

Makarov thought this way and opened the hemispherical plate cover with a little anticipation.

At the next moment, the rich aroma diffused from the front plate, accompanied by a mellow meat and black pepper aroma that Makarov was about to forget, accompanied by the heat rising from the authentic Russian beet soup, even if it was just When you smell it, you can feel warm all over.

Next to the Russian potato stew, there is the classic large lega bread drizzled with chive oil, and the soft mashed potatoes prepared with cream honey and each surface are side by side with a full of shiny caviar, mellow And delicate.

The only flaw is that Makarov did not find the shadow of the "water of life" vodka, but a simple glass of self-brewed wine, barely able to understand his wine worms craze in recent months.

Grunt ......

Makarov, who was already hungry, swallowed hard, and instantly felt his stomach begin to protest.

Without any hesitation, the old man quickly picked up the metal fork next to the dinner plate, looked at the simmering potatoes and beef stew and other meals in front of him, and could not wait to fork a piece of stuffing into the mouth.

Both potatoes and beef are very soft and delicious. The ingredients may be selected, which is far more substantial than he had eaten before.

The carefully cooked potatoes have long been stewed to golden color, the entrance is soft and rosin, and the gaps between them are filled with beef broth, accompanied by the warmth of black pepper powder.

"The food in the magic world is really delicious. The boys in the shipyard are blessed ..."

At this moment, Makarov's face suddenly stagnated.

Wait, if this is the so-called daily meal of the workers in the mouth of the wizards, is it too expensive?

Such a generous supply of three meals, if it can be fully fulfilled, all employees of Nikolayev Shipyard will become the happiest people living on this large land this winter, there is no one.

At the same time, Makarov recalled the contract placed on the table and in his memory, the girl repeated the sentence at least three or four times-all for the sake of Ulyanov.

"Transfer ... Red Tinder ... It turns out so!"

Makarov stood up abruptly, quickly walked to the desk, rudely pulled open the drawer, found a phone book that had been left for a long time, and carefully looked at the name and position above carefully.

He clearly remembered that the little witch had a casual request before leaving, hoping that he could help write letters to some familiar Soviet researchers and invite them to temporarily go to the potato store opened by the Destiny Group. .

But the remuneration paid is very strange. It is possible to set the quantity share of potatoes sold externally at an independent price.

Potato shop, potato-ruble mixed payment, free potato goulash supply ... their goal is not just here!

Perhaps those high-ranking officials with state supply and security do not have to worry about their lives getting into trouble because of the collapse of the Soviet Union, but Makarov is well aware that even Ukrainian cities known as European granaries have now appeared The prices of food ingredients and consumer goods have skyrocketed and supply is in short supply.

There is no doubt that such a huge and mysterious existence in the magic world, it is absolutely impossible to look only at his shipyard, which is on the verge of bankruptcy-the leading person who came to discuss it is a little girl, and you can see that the wizards There must be more important goals and a larger space for resource scheduling.

If Makarov made no mistake, most of the adult executors of the Destiny Group have already circled around the senior officials and troops of the various republics and are engaged in an invisible transaction.

Now that they can spend a lot of money to save an unfinished aircraft carrier, those precious talents who created and laid the foundation of Soviet industry and science will naturally get more resource tilts and transfer opportunities. As for the reason ...

Makarov raised his glass against the portrait hanging on the office wall, his face filled with firmness.

"Comrade Ulyanov, Happy New Year, we have received your gift!"

……

Russia, Bolshevik Hammer Tavern.

Elena finished all the information gathered in front of her, took an enamel open cup and took a sip of warm white water, slightly moisturized her dry lips, sang an afternoon song, and said so long, she felt His throat is almost smoking.

Although she really wanted to taste the vodka of this era, it was a pity that Grindelwald's attitude on this matter was particularly firm.

According to the concept of old antiques that lived in the last century, children should drink milk, boiled water and fruit juices. Whether it is coffee or alcoholic beverages, they are all restricted-grade beverages belonging to adults, and Elena is no exception.

Thinking of this, Elena could not help but slammed Grindelwald in the soft arm chair not far away, while the old man was drinking a can of Bavarian dark beer happily.

"You wait, don't be too happy, I must expose to Professor Dumbledore that you have been drinking alcohol after returning to school!"

"As you ... Albus can never control me anyway, some children are different. Hiccup ~"

Grindelwald shrugged nonchalantly and said indifferently.

As he said, Grindelwald glanced at the seemingly frizzled white hair balls, raised his eyebrows, and quickly changed the subject.

"But speaking of it, why did you deliberately toss that Muggle so many times this afternoon ... I can see that even without the help of the forgetting spell, you are sure to convince him."

In fact, this is arguably the most confusing afternoon Grindelwald has had these days ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ The negotiation process is smooth and full of twists and turns.

Elena made unscheduled requests more than once, or made some outrageous behavior, deliberately pushing the incident to a disappointing end.

Even after the first preliminary negotiation was completed, he left the Nikolaev shipyard directly, and then let them and the phantom move directly to the Muggle office and start again.

"Because people's hearts are the most complicated thing in the world, all unbreakable fortresses often collapse from the inside."

Elena's eyes flickered, and she slowly shook her head. "Besides, sometimes I can't see through myself, let alone a stranger. I don't want to, and dare not put all my bets on a single Proven faith and humanity ... "

As for whether Makarov will be aware of the inadequacy afterwards, and whether uncontrollable anger will arise from it, she has already used two archives to check the results in advance.

In Elena's eyes, the old man is not just an experienced general technical worker.

If there is no accident, he is the person who is most likely to be the first step and the most important step for the destiny and the magic world to pry up the "scientific brain" of the former Soviet Union.
