Chapter 351 (1/2)

”Mr. MacDonald, could you spare me some time, we Saskatchewan wheat consortium...”

”Minister Bradley, I'd like to communicate with you again about the issue of grain export to China...”

……

At the luncheon held by the Saskatchewan wheat consortium, seryosha and Yakovlev were divided into two groups. Seryosha lobbied various factions in Canadian politics through the power brokers employed by the Saskatchewan wheat consortium. In addition to the radical far right faction members, seryosha mainly contacted the political forces in Saskatchewan province, On behalf of the political forces in the interests of farmers, he also enlisted various stakeholders such as the Canadian agricultural association to block the Canadian government's ban on food exports. Yakovlev, on the other hand, keeps visiting his contacts in Canada. They did it for the sake of both the Soviet Union and Gorbachev. Just last night, Gorbachev also talked with Canadian agricultural officials by telephone about continuing to implement the agricultural cooperation agreement.

However, the media reported on the Korean Canadians who protested in front of the Soviet embassy. Xie liaosha and Yakovlev can only recover the situation by private communication. At present, Canada's political tendency is still in favor of sanctions against the Soviet Union. He does not expect the Canadian government to give up this plan. He only hopes that the Canadian government can exclude food.

”What's the matter with you?” After the lunch, Yakovlev asked seryosha.

”Saskatchewan councillors and representatives of the Agricultural Association reluctantly agreed to stand on our side, but they would not speak for us. They only agreed to vote for us when voting on the question!” Xie liaosha replied.

”It's already very good. I've talked with the speaker of the parliament of Canada. They agreed to hold a hearing on food and agricultural cooperation separately. This is the only chance I can get!” Yakovlev said somewhat dejectedly.

”In your experience, what are our chances of winning?” Xie liaosha asked.

”What do the Romanov people say?” Yakovlev did not answer seryov's question directly. Instead, he asked him about Romanov's business.

”They told me that all members of Parliament in Saskatchewan should support it, and the rest of them can't guarantee it. When does the hearing start and how much time do we have left? What else can we do? ” Xie liaosha asked.

”Don't try to deal with them with the domestic way. It's not only easy to be clumsy, but also may bring us more trouble once it's found out!” Yakovlev thought that xieliaosha was using a crooked brain, and quickly advised him.

”I just want to know what else we can do?” Seryova explained to Yakovlev.
