Chapter 827: Swimming Against the Current


As an important educational and cultural center of Russia, Omsk is home to several museums, theaters, music halls and educational institutions, among its many museums, the State Historical Museum, the Dostoevsky Literary Museum, the Vrubel Art Gallery, and the Military Museum are the most famous.At the same time, the city also has the Omsk Bolshoi Theater, the Opera House, the Drama Theater, the Puppet Theater, and the Youth Theater; Ensembles include the Omsk Russian National Choir, the Symphony Orchestra and the Chamber Orchestra; The Pushkin Library is the most famous library in Omsk and one of the largest libraries in the Siberya.At present, Omsk preserves several famous historical buildings from the 19th century to the beginning of the century, such as the Nikolai Cossack Church, the Governor's Palace, the Military School Building, the Russian Hotel, the Judicial Building, the Omsk Railway Bureau, etc., which are full of historical charm and style.However, these places were nothing to the well-informed Yang Jing, and after he had been around the city for two days, he had little interest.One is that he has seen a lot of such buildings and scenic spots, and the other is that in Omsk in October, the weather is already a little unbearable.If you are in China, the beginning of October is the out-and-out golden autumn season, and it is most comfortable to be lukewarm.But here, the temperature at night has dropped below zero, and the maximum temperature during the day is only about ten degrees Celsius, which is very unbearable.The most important thing is that after two days of playing, Chris and the others did not find that anyone was monitoring or following their group, which made Yang Jing completely relieved.It seems that Mr.

Kubrsky doesn't dare to do anything to himself for the time being, after all, the oil tycoon has put his words there, and if this guy dares to continue to do anything unfavorable to himself, I'm afraid the oil tycoon won't be able to spare him.So, after playing for two days, Yang Jing found Alec Perov."

Hey, Albert, how's it going to be here?"

Alec Perov was as enthusiastic as ever."

I have to say it's a beautiful city, and if it were a little hotter, I'd love to stay here for a while.""

Haha, I have to say that your Chinese people's ability to tolerate the cold is worse than that of our fighting nation."

Alec Perov made a joke that was not too big or too small, "What, did you come to me this time to say goodbye?"

”Yang Jing shrugged his shoulders, "I have this plan, but the past two days of playing here have hooked my interest, especially the Irtysh River, which is a river that originates in our Huaxia."

I remember that the Qing Dynasty was still navigable with your Russia, but I don't know if it is still navigable. ”Alekperov shook his head and said: "It's a pity that this shipping channel has been closed since the sixties between China and the Soviet Union in the sixties of the last century.Recently, however, several countries are preparing to discuss the reopening of the shipping lane, but they do not know when they will be negotiated.Why, do you want to go up the Irtysh River to enjoy the scenery?

Although China is not yet connected to Russia or Kazakhstan, if you take a boat from here, you can go upriver to Kazakhstan.The scenery in this section is still very good" Yang Jing smiled and said: "Wadjit, I have to say that your proposal is really great."

You don't say, I haven't thought of this yet.Since you say that, I'm really tempted. ”Alec Perov nodded and said: "If you want to go on a boat, I can arrange a luxury yacht for you, my Siberian Endeavour is still docked at the marina of the yacht club on the banks of the Irtysh River, if you like, I can lend this yacht to you." ”"That's great, Vargit, thank you so much for your generosity."

Yang Jing sincerely expressed his gratitude."

Haha, you don't have to thank me, I just came here from the Arctic Ocean on this yacht this summer, and after more than twenty days of jolting on the boat, I almost can't stand this old bone.So I haven't started the yacht since it was maintained here.Now that you're here, it's just in time for her to move.The Irtysh River is not as wide as the Arctic Ocean, but it is better than letting her nest in a marina. ”"Don't worry, I'll take good care of her.""

Then you can go directly to the yacht dock of the Greenland Island Sports Center tomorrow, and I'll call there in a moment and ask them to get all ready.Oh yes, how many bodyguards do you have?

”"Twelve."

This number made the oil tycoon stunned for a moment, and then said with a wry smile: "I really didn't expect you to have so many bodyguards by your side."

The cabin of my Siberian Endeavour could only accommodate ten guests.By the way, do any of your bodyguards know how to sail a boat?

”"They are all retired special forces, and several of them can fly this kind of superyacht.""

That's fine, I'll replace the two crew members so you can live in.Let your bodyguards go out and let them stay in the pilot's cabin when the time comes. ”Yang Jing smiled and nodded in thanks, but still declined his kindness, after all, Chris and they had to take turns on duty, and the cabin of the yacht could definitely let them sleep in turns.Early the next morning, a group of thirteen people drove to the Greenland Island Sports Center on the east bank of the Irtysh River, where the Irtysh River formed a bay where the locals built a marina for the wealthy to dock their yachts.Before I even walked up to the pier, I saw the superyacht "Siberian Endeavour" that stood out from the crowd in the distance.This yacht can only barely enter the ranks of superyachts in terms of length, after all, her length is only 147 feet, about 45 meters, compared to those superyachts that are often hundreds of meters, she can really only be regarded as a little sister.However, this yacht, crafted by the Royal Dutch Vanlente shipyard, is extremely luxurious.This yacht is actually an improved version of the F45 series, although the length is the same as the F45, but in other respects it is a big cut beyond the F45 family.When Yang Jing boarded the yacht under the guidance of the reception staff, he could truly feel the luxury of the yacht.The yacht is more than a third smaller than the 246-foot superyacht he leased from Australian mining tycoon Andrew Fortres when he visited PNG last year, but the "little sister" is no worse than the one in other ways.The yacht has three floors, with two above deck, including a small helipad on the top deck, which carries a latest, Robinson R66 five-seater light helicopter.As for the interior decoration, not to mention, the oil tycoon with a net worth of tens of billions of dollars will definitely not be stingy with his yacht, although the size of this yacht is a little smaller, but the interior decoration is definitely not worse than other superyachts.This superyacht has been refitted, so it is also much faster than the original F45 series yachts.Originally, the F45 series yachts had a top speed of only 145 knots, but the Siberian Endeavour was modified to reach a maximum speed of 22 knots.This speed is not even suitable for navigating inland rivers, and only on the open sea can this beautiful "little sister" go at great speed.In addition to the owner's exclusive cabin, the yacht is equipped with four double suites and can only accommodate up to ten guests.At first, Alec Perov planned to go down to the two pilots and let Chris and them drive the boat, but Yang Jing did not do so.Not to mention Chris, they will take turns on duty on the ship, even if they are not on duty, they can sleep with a little squeeze or a bunk.In this way, the ship was still controlled by Alec Perov's personal captain, Viktor Ivan.The supplies on the ship had already been replenished, and they were waiting for the arrival of Yang Jing and his party.Captain Ivan is also very respectful to Yang Jing, after all, being able to let the boss lend the ship is enough to prove the status of this young man in the boss's mind, Ivan is just an experienced private captain, and he does not dare to snub the boss's distinguished guests.Not long after Yang Jing and his party got on the boat, after asking Yang Jing's consent, Captain Ivan sounded the whistle, and then this superyacht that stood out from the crowd slowly left the marina under the gaze of many people, and after sailing out of the bay at the entrance and exit of the bay in front and turning an angle of one hundred and eighty degrees, it began to slowly accelerate and go upriver along the Irtysh River.In Omsk at the beginning of October, although the night temperature has dropped below freezing, the river does not freeze, and the middle and upper reaches of the Irtysh River will not be completely closed until the end of October, and then until May of the following year.At this time, there were still many steamers on the Irtysh River, especially in this section of the river, which was wide and deep, and thousand-ton steamers abounded in the river.In fact, in the former Soviet Union, the Irtysh River was a very important inland waterway in the Siberian region of the former Soviet Union, at that time, the five Central Asian countries had not yet left the Soviet Union alone, and the transportation of goods between the Republic of Kazakhstan and Russia was an important waterway in addition to the railway.At that time, the annual traffic through this waterway could exceed 1.5 million tons, which is enough to prove the importance of this waterway.Today, shipping between Russia and Kazakhstan is still very developed, and the Irtysh River is responsible for transporting up to 2 million tons in the only five months of navigation per year.Now, all kinds of inland river transport ships coming and going in the river are taking advantage of the more than 20 days before the channel is completely closed to speed up the transportation of various materials, and at the same time, they are silently proving the importance of this waterway.ps: Bow and thank you
