Siberia in May is the most comfortable season of the year. The temperature is moderate and the sun is shining. You can enjoy the feeling of spring when standing in the sun.

   Leningrad.

   It is the political, economic and cultural center of Russia in history. It is known as the northern capital of Russia. It is also Russia's largest industrial city and the most important city for the deployment of the Soviet navy.

   At this time, the northernmost industrial city in the world was caught in a mighty demonstration.

   Countless young people wearing factory uniforms walked in groups on the street, holding banners and holding signs, they were shouting.

   "Let Gorba get down!"

   "We want democracy!"

   "We want freedom!"

   "We want food!"

   "We want vodka!"

   Tens of thousands of strikers gathered together and shouted, densely packed like a torrent of moving humanity.

The    hammer and sickle logo was vandalized by protesters, and the Marine Corps holding guns wherever it passed can only keep moving back again and again.

   At the gates of major state-run shopping malls, shoppers also lined up long.

   Due to the strict control of the quantity of various materials, residents have to start queuing early in the morning.

   In the mall, Zhuoya, who had been queuing up at two o'clock in the morning and finally entered the mall, pushed the shopping cart slowly forward.

   The shelves around it were empty and no merchandise could be seen, and even the usual supply of brown bread seemed to disappear.

   Zhuoya did not panic. She was sixty years old and had experienced the baptism of war. She had nothing to fear.

   Slowly pushing the shopping cart in her hand, Zhuo Ya walked to the egg shelf.

   Two baskets of red fresh eggs are impressively on the shelf.

   This is one of the few foods in the mall.

   A gleam of joy flashed in Zhuo Ya's old eyes.

   God is merciful, and he will never end the way.

   Released the shopping cart in her hand, Zhuo Ya moved towards the eggs on the shelf.

   But at this moment, a young and strong youth walked by quickly and picked up the eggs on the shelf when Zhuoya was about to walk to the shelf.

   Two baskets, the young man picked up the two baskets of eggs and turned around and left.

   was sluggish for a second, Zhuo Ya showed a bitter smile helplessly.

  Perhaps, God took a nap today.

   Food shortages, food shortages, even the most common brown bread has been out of stock, and many ordinary residents are caught in a difficult life like Zhuoya.

  Of course, this is only for ordinary residents.

  Remember how brave and domineering this female czar was when he converted to Orthodox Church and realized Russia's substantial territorial expansion.

   There is also a glimpse of the enchanting and enchanting style of the daughter of the German prince.

But Queen Katerina is always a woman. She imitated the noble ladies of the Bourbon dynasty. She has more than 30 lovers of different professions, ages, and cultural levels. Naturally, she needs a gentle palace that will not be disturbed. It is the meaning of the existence of Lion Garden.

   There are brightly dressed and cool girls passing through the crowd holding a goblet with red wine, and there are also ladies or actresses in formal dresses talking to people from time to time.

   Cheers and laughter, as well as expressive eyes.

   In the central area, silver-white light flashes on tables tens of meters long. No, it should be said that it is silver light.

  The silverware of the royal cuisine is full of various delicacies.

  There are delicacies from all over the world, including royal traditional secret dishes, caviar from the deep sea, and Lafite from France.

   Luxurious and noble.

  The light radiating from the glazed lighting makes this place full of royal luxury, holding a glass of red wine, standing on the top floor and looking down at the demonstrators downstairs, as if God is looking down on the world.
