"Comrade Baranikov, I think you should know that our KGB is not in a better position now than it was then, and how many pairs of eyes are staring at us now.
If you have something at home, you should apply to the organization, even if you really have an urgent task, you should not lose contact with the organization without saying a word, if you behave like this during the Stalin period, you will be shot" KGB Chairman General Kryuchkov unceremoniously reprimanded Baranikov, he really couldn't understand how an old comrade like Baranikov could ignore the discipline of the organization and suddenly lose contact with the KGB organization for a week.
And Baranikov remained silent about where he had been during this time.
Why is that?
"Mr.
President, can I trust you," Baranikov, who had been silent, suddenly whispered to Kryuchkov.
"What do you mean by that, are you in some trouble?"
asked Kryuchkov curiously.
After much deliberation, Baranikov finally decided to confess his secret to the chairman of the KGB.
Although he knew that the mastermind behind the Gorky Brotherhood was so powerful, getting rid of him would likely push the Soviet Union back into the abyss of economic collapse.
However, Baranikov's conscience did not allow him to let those who were corrupt and pervert the law go unpunished.
Baranikov suddenly took out a few photos from his chest and solemnly placed them in front of Chairman Kryuchkov.
"What is this," Kryuchkov asked in bewilderment.
"Mr.
President, this is a long story, do you remember the anti-corruption operation led by Chairman Andropov in the past?"
"Remember, so what" "The Uzbek fraud case, the whole Uzbek officialdom, including Rashidov, is rotten.
They concealed a large amount of cotton production from the state, and then sold it to foreign companies through smuggling, embezzling a large amount of state assets.
After the incident, almost half of the Uzbek officialdom was arrested.
I remember that at that time, there was only one deputy secretary in Uzbekistan who was not implicated," Baranikov explained to Kryuchkov seriously.
"Isn't that case already over, what, do you have something new to discover?"
Kryuchkov asked curiously.
"Mr.
President, the case is over, and the relevant responsible persons have also been dealt with by party discipline and state law, but we have never found that money, which is a huge amount of money, and the conservative estimate is 1 billion US dollars.
However, we searched through the homes of corrupt officials and found nothing but a large number of expensive carpets, tobacco and liquor, foreign luxury goods, and gold products.
Could it be that all the corrupt officials at that time squandered all their money?"
"Then you mean, there are still people behind this who have got this money" Kryuchkov has caught the end of the line now, 1 billion, who is so bold and greedy for so much money, you must know that this is the result of the collective "labor" of the entire Uzbek officialdom, and there are still people who are darker than them.
"Mr.
President, don't worry, the truth is far from being so simple, do you remember a few years ago when the bodies of several people were hung on the Moscow River, when our KGB also participated in the investigation, but it turned out that nothing was found.
In fact, I haven't given up for so many years, and then I really found out something.
Those who died belonged to an underworld organization called the Songtsevo Brotherhood, which made money by defrauding Jews who had immigrated to Israel.
However, they did not play the banner of the Songtsevo Brotherhood to the outside world, but an organization called the Gorky Brotherhood, according to the information we had at the time, the reputation of the Gorky Brotherhood was very good, and many dignitaries were willing to hand over the money to them, and their name was a golden sign of the domestic gangster organization engaged in the money laundering industry at that time, and this organization not only had a large and complex organizational structure in China, but also had a complete branch in Italy.
They are inextricably linked to the Italian mafia.
As soon as Baranikov had the opportunity to speak, he was eager to tell all the results of the investigation over the past few years, and even if he died the next moment, the secret would not be brought into the coffin by him.
"Is there such a powerful illegal force in our country?"
Kryuchkov asked in disbelief.
"The head of the Gorky Brotherhood in Italy is called Yakov, and just a week ago, Yakov flew to Leningrad to participate in Soviet-European business events, but I found out that he did not stay in Leningrad honestly, he flew to Gorky with some other Gorky Brotherhood to attend an important event.
I haven't figured out who left Leningrad that night, but I now know who the guy behind Yakov is," Baranikov pointed to the photo, in which a man in sunglasses was hugging another guy, albeit with only one side face, but Kryuchkov recognized the guy in the photo.
"This is Secretary Ulyanov," Kryuchkov could not believe his eyes.
"Yes, it is the newly elected member of the Politburo, the Minister of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation of the USSR Sergei Ivanovich Ulyanov," Baranikov said with a long sigh.
"This can't be, how could he" Kryuchkov in any case could not believe it.
"I have thought many times, Mr.
President, and there is no way to explain why such a dangerous fellow would meet privately with our Minister in Gorky, regardless of the assumption.
Is it for business activities, why don't you meet in public in Leningrad, you have to fly from Leningrad to Gorky.
And there is no trace on the flight record of the air traffic control bureau, all this needs a reasonable explanation, then there is only one possibility, the big boss behind Yakov is Ulyanov, only he has this ability" "I won't believe it, it's definitely your imagination," Kryuchkov got up from his seat feeling a little angry.
"No, Mr.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
President, do you remember the Somali aid grain smuggling case that caused a lot of uproar in the United States back then, when the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation imported a large amount of grain from abroad, can you deny this?"
Baranikov finally threw out another killer idea.
Half an hour later, Kryuchkov broke the silence and said solemnly to Baranikov: "Comrade Baranikov, if everything you say is true, then our country is likely to fall into a great conspiracy, and I will never let such people destroy our country." t1706231537:
