Big Time 1958

Chapter 480: A trip to the Arctic Circle

   How to use the diamonds in this giant diamond crater depends on how to deal with the resolution of the Central Presidium. The artificial diamond industry in the Soviet Union is very strong, but in fact, the artificial diamond industry does not have an urgent need for this diamond crater. You must know that the Soviet diamond itself was mass-produced by Soviet scientists, and this historical time and space also allowed Serov to cheat a lot of money.

   dang dang crotch! Holding the seal of the chairman of the KGB, he kept tapping on the documents, and sealed all the documents at a speed of five times a second. He called Servanov in, and Serov commanded with the documents that had passed, "These few copies. Just continue to execute the documents and send them to various departments, and I may not be at the headquarters in the last half month."

   The potential value of this giant diamond crater is fully qualified for him, the chairman of the KGB, to visit it in person. Several documents correspond to the subsequent propaganda of conspiracy theories on the Kennedy assassination issue in the United States, cooperation with the Indian Ministry of Home Affairs, and work in the direction of Sudan, as well as the most important KGB infiltration plan in Southeast Asia.

   The publicity about the Kennedy assassination mainly focused on why a soldier who had been a soldier should have a strong character, why would he assassinate Kennedy, and his marksmanship was so accurate that he could shoot a headshot outside the line of sight. The cooperation between the Ministry of Internal Affairs of India and the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Soviet Union is done by Minister Serokoff, which is not a big deal. The Sudanese side's work is mainly handled by the General Office of the Secret Police, while the Southeast Asian infiltration plan has dealt with the looming Indonesian problem. The general policy has been set, and a defensive counterattack has been made. If the Indonesian Army keeps pretending to be dead, then the KGB will have time to support the Indonesian Ministry of Internal Affairs. A sit-in battle.

   It will be a question of who can lose his temper first. Sheloff thinks that the CIA may plan for a longer time this time, but it will eventually be done at that time, because the time is not on the US side. The impact of the collapse of the Indonesian Communist Party in history has overshadowed the victories of the socialist camp in the Vietnam War, and it has not been included in most of Southeast Asia, and has not changed the fundamental situation in Asia.

"If there is no problem, call Minister Shelokov. I still have something to tell him." Shelov said to his confidential secretary, the status of the Ministry of Internal Affairs during Khrushchev's time was really not important. Important, it is more important to say that it is important, and it is more accurate to use Yang Xiu's tasteless metaphor.

It is of course important for the Ministry of Internal Affairs to be in charge of social order in the Soviet Union, but the Soviet Union during the Khrushchev period was generally more relaxed. The work of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is far less than that in other eras, and Khrushchev may have some psychological shadows on Beria, and finally made the decision to abolish the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so that this department no longer exists as an independent department.

"Look at the document. This is my opinion on the cooperation with the Ministry of Home Affairs of India. Also, I am going to go out. I may not be in Lubyanka recently. If you have time, you can go with me. If you don't have time, let me Kryuchkov and I will go there." Serov sought the opinion of the Minister of Internal Affairs, after all, the other party was the second secretary, he was not Semychasny, the first who dared to send the general secretary here The vice-chairman was sent to the republics to be the chairman of the KGB.

   This kind of thing can be done, why don't you go to heaven? Does the authority of the chairman of the KGB really work for the general secretary? Unless you're Beria, you haven't met Stalin yet. Besides, Bellia was secretly arrested in the end.

In Serov's eyes, if Brezhnev sent a deputy, he would look at each other with the big-eyed Lubyanka, and he would never send the other party to a place. This would appear to be a winner, but it would cause Not to mention the fears of the Central Presidium, it would be bad for the other party to form authority locally.

   "I may not be able to travel, it's a pity, Comrade Serov." Serokoff finally declined Serov's proposal, but this was not irritating, on the contrary, he could leave the influence of his willingness to listen to opinions.

"It doesn't matter, then Comrade Kryuchkov and I will go. The Siberia side also needs the cooperation of the local General Administration of Internal Affairs, and always needs a leader of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to accompany me." Shelov said indifferently, and then This matter was settled, first take a Soviet Airline plane to Irkutsk, and then a helicopter called the local border military area went to the Diamond Crater.

Originally, Serov wanted to go there with a military transport plane called the Red Army, but I heard that the local airport conditions were not good, so I gave up, so I chose to take a heavy transport helicopter. There is no railway over the Super Diamond Crater. Only the Soviet Union is close to the polar regions Military post, so cannot be reached by train.

  Although the electrified railway in the Soviet Union was the first in the world in this era, there was only one Siberian railway running in the Siberia region, and the latitude was south. Building a railway is very difficult, even bigger than building a railway on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

  Although the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau also has tundra, the temperature is basically fixed, but Siberia is different. Although the summer in the Soviet Union is relatively short, it does not mean that the temperature is low. In a short summer, it is enough to make the tundra in Siberia civilized. It becomes a wetland or swamp. The reason why forestry resource exploitation is always carried out in winter is because in summer, cars can't get in, and they can't get out. This is very understandable.

  The reason for the huge amount of logging in winter is that the roads in the mountains have been frozen, and there will be no muddy conditions for the vehicles transporting wood to sink in. The diamond mine to which Serov is going is already close to the Arctic Circle, but the temperature in June also reached zero, and the local area began to become swampy, so it was impossible to pass by means of transportation. The last tens of kilometers can only rely on the legs of a pedestrian. Fortunately, Serov never believed that he could survive the cold and heat. Before going to a place, he always checked the local weather and made adequate preparations.

The people who simply included a squad of frontier soldiers, some experts from the Geology Department, plus KGB Chairman Serov and Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs, this experience made Serov feel like he had been on the grass, but he did not expect to come to the Soviet Union ten years later. , he actually enjoyed the treatment of the Red Army during the Long March. This is not an exaggeration at all. The location where the diamond crater was found is very close to the Arctic Circle. Even the coniferous forest is no longer rising. Instead, it is moss and short grass. Step on it No one knows if it will fall directly into it.

  A group of fully armed people pulled the lifeline and slowly approached this legendary super diamond mine. This diamond crater was the top secret in the Soviet Union during the Cold War. It was not revealed in the Russian media until more than ten years after the disintegration of the Soviet Union. Otherwise, the whole world would not have existed until such a place.

  It took two days for the slow-moving group to approach the edge of the diamond crater and reach the site of the meteorite impact. Perhaps it is the reason why Siberia has always been inaccessible, and the landforms here are very well preserved. A few old men from the Geology Department were overjoyed when they arrived here. For them, this discovery excited them more than anything.

   A group of people stayed here for a day to collect, and set up a tent at night. After the night fell, the temperature here dropped again, making them sizzle and haha ​​who lived here for one night.

   Holding the collected impact diamonds in his hand, Serov said a little greedily, "If it were a commercial diamond, it would be an unimaginable wealth. You must know that women have no reason to treat this thing."

"Chairman, are all the diamond distribution areas here? It's amazing." Kryuchkov said with some admiration. If Serov hadn't insisted that a cadre of the Ministry of Internal Affairs accompany him this time, he would not have known that there was such a place in the Soviet Union. .

   "Yes, I didn't expect such a place in the world!" In Eshelov's eyes, he couldn't tell the difference between industrial diamonds and commercial diamonds at all, and he didn't know any elemental differences. If it wasn't for a glass knife in his previous family, he wouldn't even know that it was a diamond similar to a diamond.

Thinking about the price of glass knives when he was a child, Serov had to sigh at the progress of technology, and slowly turned a lot of seemingly expensive things into the price of cabbage. Sooner or later, the productivity will reach the standard of the communist society. It is difficult to say which party will achieve this goal.

With the integrity of capitalists, unless threatened, they will never promote the urgency of new technologies. It is better to rely on their conscience to find out that it is better to rely on sows to climb trees. During the Cold War, if the threat of the Soviet Union had not always existed, there would have been a technological explosion under high-intensity competition. The Cold War is over, the technological explosion is gone, and capitalists continue to make profits comfortably.

Shelov remembered one thing that I don’t know if the metaphor is appropriate or not, that is, the price of mobile phones at the beginning, compared with the price after the mass production of counterfeit phones in China, if the mobile phone industry was not impacted by Chinese counterfeit phones, who could not stand the market? Know how long it will take for those mobile phones that cost thousands of dollars to sell.

The group stayed in the diamond crater for three days, obtained certain samples from the edge to the center, and then began to go back, but Kryuchkov was carried out by Serov, and Serov couldn't help shaking his head. How can the body be the body of a KGB chairman, and he didn't come here for inspection in winter, and he could still catch a cold.

"Send Comrade Kryuchkov to Irkutsk for treatment. It's not good to delay the time. Small problems should be prevented as soon as possible. If you don't pay attention, they will become serious ones!" Serov took off his cloak. On Kryuchkov, he didn't find the other party's intention to pay his respects, so he ordered a few words to get on another helicopter. This trip to the Arctic Circle is very interesting. By the way, I can also buy people's hearts and make money... (To be continued~^~)
