Chapter 1280: Why is this so influential?

Xiao Peng glared at the shouting man: "Ablashenka, what are you screaming so frightfully? I will send you to feed the wolf to scare my friend!"
It was no one else who shouted, but Ablashenka, Sergei's right-hand man. After listening to Xiao Peng's words, I also knew that I had misunderstood, and Ablashenka hurriedly asked his men to take back their guns.
Xiao Peng sighed: "That's why I said I don't like to go to Saha."
Qian Congcong asked in a low voice, "Brother Peng, what is going on?"
Xiao Peng said: "It's nothing, but I still have some reputation in some places. Unfortunately, this is one of them. What should I do now?"
Qian Congcong and others are a little dizzy. Is this ‘a little prestigious’? That old man bowed his head when he saw you. Don't tell me this is a distant relative in your family, or a lie that you are older than him. They won't believe it if you kill them.
Pan Peiyu knew the inside story, but didn't say anything. Qian Congcong and the others were curiously scratching their hearts.
But now it is indeed a bit troublesome: Alexander is coming to receive Qian Congcong and others, and Kurge wants to entertain Xiao Peng again, not to mention Sergey, what he wants now is to drag Xiao Peng directly into the helicopter and go home-- ----What's so fun about Yakutsk? Why don't you go to my house and relax.
If it’s just Alexander, Sergey would really not like him. Even the President of the Sakha Republic, Eisen-Nikolaev, would have to make an appointment to see Sergey. What's more, the little official who doesn’t know that department?
But it was really difficult for him to deal with Kurge. Most of the people in Saha are Yakutia. Although some Yakuts also believe in Eastern Catholicism, most of them are Shamanism. As the greatest shaman in the Saha area, Kuerg's influence is really lacking.
In the end, Alexander sent a car to visit Kurge's house first, and then to Sergey's. Poor Alexander, this time I went to China to find investors who were interested in the Sakha Republic. How did it stop people?
Fortunately, Sergey was pretty good, and invited him to go with him instead of just being the captain of the transportation brigade.
Kurg did not live in Yakutsk, but lived outside Yakutsk. Speaking of which, Yakutsk and Xiao Peng imagined that they were not the same. They were relatively modern cities. Traditional Russian architecture and modern buildings coexist. The most beautiful is their standard ‘onion-head’ church, which is elegant in shape, tall, wide and upright.
But going out of the city is a different scene. The so-called "national road" is because the frozen ground is frozen again after the frozen soil is thawed. The road is high and low, and it feels like driving on the stairs.
"This broken road! This broken car!" Tao Haining complained.
They are sitting on a Toyota Prado. Driving on such a road is extremely bumpy.
Xiao Peng smiled and said: "This car is already very good. If you pay attention, the Sakha Republic is almost all imported Japanese used cars."
"Why is this?" Tao Haining was puzzled.
Xiao Peng shrugged: "I have to ask? It's too cold here. They are here in winter, and 30 degrees cold is considered good weather; minus 40 degrees is'a little cold'; minus 60 or 70 degrees is big. In cold weather, at that temperature, a layer of frost hangs on the eyebrows within a few minutes of going out, and the breath will crystallize. This Japanese car is more adaptable to the severe cold than the Xiongguo native car. People here do not turn off the engine in winter. Usually it doesn’t stop all day--because it may not start as soon as the fire is turned off. You can come and experience it in winter."
Tao Haining and the others shook their heads like a rattle: "It's terrifying to think about the weather. Let's forget it."
The car bumped for two hours and finally arrived at the destination. There are no houses here, only animal skin tents stacked with wood and animal skins. Several tall totem poles were erected around the tent.
This is not surprising, the most surprising thing is the mummy of a tall mammoth standing next to it.
"Brother Peng, that is a mammoth? Is that true or false?" Qian Congcong asked curiously.
"Of course it's true." Xiao Peng replied: "The old man was called Kurge just now, which means'mammoth god' in the local language. Isn't it strange that he has a mammoth here?"
"But that's a mammoth! Shouldn't it be a fossil? This is more like a mummy, right?" Tao Haining looked puzzled.
Xiao Peng smiled and said, "Is this weird? How long do you think the mammoth was extinct? In fact, when the mammoth was extinct, the Egyptians built the pyramids. This is the tundra, so many hairs were found here. To be precise, there are some professional mammoth diggers further north here. You should know that a good-quality mammoth tusk can sell for tens of thousands of dollars. If you are interested, you can check it out. Although it’s a bit late now, the frozen ground has begun to freeze, but there may still be people working hard to make money there."
Just then Sergey came over and saw Xiao Peng and the others chatting there. Although he didn't understand what Xiao Peng was talking about, he saw that they were looking at the mammoth when they were talking, and he said with a smile: "Mr. Xiao, are you looking at this mammoth ivory?"
Xiao Peng waved his hand and said, "I just saw this mammoth corpse which is interesting. I have never seen it before."
Sergey laughed: "It's okay, Mr. Xiao, you don't know Yakutsk. The traditional crafts here are ivory carvings. They are carved from mammoth ivory. I have a warehouse with some excavated pieces in it. Mammoth ivory."
"What do you want mammoth ivory for?" Xiao Peng asked curiously.
Sergey shrugged and said, "Selling money is also part of my business scope. Although it is illegal to dig mammoth ivory in the bear country, it is illegal to sell mammoth ivory. Now the global crackdown on modern African ivory business is illegal. Ivory merchants sold wildly, and no one took orders, causing the price of modern ivory to plunge. Since mammoth ivory is non-renewable or legal, the price has skyrocketed. Now the price of high-quality mammoth ivory is much higher than that of modern ivory. You said earlier You like this thing. I gave you a bunch of them last time I went to China. I still have a pair of super big teeth over four meters long."
Xiao Peng wanted to refuse, but it suddenly occurred to him that his heritage of ancient art also included ivory sculpture. Since he did not have ivory, he had never played ivory sculpture. Now there are mammoth ivory, which seems to be fun too?
But now mammoth ivory is really not cheap. Once a two-meter-long mammoth ivory can be bought here for less than five hundred dollars, now it can be sold for tens of thousands of dollars as long as it is dug out of the soil. After being smuggled out, it is normal to sell for one hundred thousand dollars. ------Of course, this refers to the well-preserved, if it is petrified or calcified, it has no value.
Xiao Peng thought of this, and said to Sergey: "Otherwise, take advantage of the good weather now, you also take these friends of mine to open your eyes and see how the mammoth ivory is digging!"
Sergey nodded after hearing this: "Okay, I'll make arrangements. But I can't guarantee that I will still be working there." After speaking, he called Ablashenka to arrange to see the mammoth ivory digger. The matter is gone.
Seeing Sergey walking away, Tang Fang asked curiously: "Brother Peng, what the did Sergey do just now? He looks like a good cow." The few around him who understand Russian, put Xiao Peng and Sergey together. After listening to them, everyone was very curious about what Sergey did. The group of bodyguards around him did not even pay attention to government officials. Is this person stunned?
Xiao Peng replied: "It is the largest landlord in the Sakha Republic. Almost all the land in western Saha is his."
"The whole land in the western part of the Sakha Republic?" Tang Fang didn't know what this concept was.
Xiao Peng nodded: "Yes, it is almost equivalent to the area of ​​two Qilu provinces. Let's put it this way. The border between the Sakha Republic and the Evenki Autonomous Region, the Taimel Autonomous Region and Irkutsk Oblast is all It’s the land, just think about how big it is."
"What does he want such a large land for? Is there farming?" Qian Congcong asked.
"Oh, he is still the biggest diamond dealer here. There are several diamond mines all owned by him." Xiao Peng wrote lightly.
Qian Congcong and others were a little dumbfounded. After a long while, Tang Fang said angrily: "What's the matter, who is saying that I will fight with someone in the big circle in the future? Isn't it a curse?"
Tao Haining has already stretched out his thumbs: "Brother Peng, Niu X!" He is completely convinced now, and he still feels that he is more than Niu X, compared with Xiao Peng, this is nothing short of roots!
Xiao Peng smiled and said, "I told Sergey to see if I can take you to see digging mammoth ivory."
"Then what are you doing now?" Qian Congcong asked, "Brother Peng, why do you have such a high influence here?"
Xiao Peng answered his question with actions, and saw that he was standing in front of a totem pole holding his chest with one hand, and the other hand holding on to the totem pole, bowing his head silently. When he saw Xiao Peng doing this, Kuerg smiled and took out many small sculptures from the tent and placed them in front of each totem pole. Qian Congcong took a look at them. Those small sculptures were all made of various kinds. Carved from animal teeth, bones, and wood.
Xiao Peng suddenly opened his eyes and walked around the totem poles one by one, making all kinds of strange gestures in front of the totem poles.
"Brother Pan, what is Brother Peng doing?" Qian Congcong couldn't help it anymore, and asked curiously as he took out a cigarette and handed it to Pan Peiyu who was standing aside.
Pan Peiyu smiled and said: "You should know the influence of religion on foreigners? The boss is the ‘Galetitan’ of the entire shaman world, just like the Pope. Can they disrespect the boss?"
"Shamanism? Don't all Xiong countries believe in Eastern Catholicism?" Qian Congcong asked curiously.
"Oh, the boss is still Samuel of the Eastern Church and Tiangong Church, that is, the high priest. So wherever you go, there are people who can give some face."
Everyone looked at each other, Brother Peng, you are so awesome, does your family know?
