As expected, after Gryzlov joined forces with several deputy speakers to propose that plan, all factions in the Duma tacitly expressed unanimous support. There was no stir at all, and the plan passed smoothly.
After being submitted to the upper house, it was quietly approved there as well, then sent to the Kremlin.
As long as Wang Ye signed off on it, the plan could take effect immediately!
In his office, Wang Ye looked at the submitted proposal, bearing the large blue seals of both the Duma and the upper house, and remained silent for a long time.
If he did not sign it, he could regain his "freedom" in ten years. By then, his disciples and old associates would be spread across the land, he would possess immense wealth and a powerful private armed force, and his life would be unimaginably carefree!
But could ten years be enough to realize that ideal buried deep in his heart...
Wang Ye felt that perhaps it would not!
Perhaps he needed even more time...
But once he signed it, when he would be able to step away would become an unknown. Perhaps after sitting in that position for too long, even his state of mind would change!
Maybe even after achieving that ideal, he would no longer want to retire.
After all, the temptation of power was great enough!
After hesitating again and again, Wang Ye finally sighed, picked up the pen on his desk, and signed his full name with a flourish!
He was still young anyway and had plenty of time. At worst, just as his godfather had once said, "Give me twenty years, and I'll give you back a great nation"!
Perhaps the reason he had been reborn was, in some unseen way, to shoulder such a responsibility!
