Thoughts
The next move, and Roman Zinchenko still hasn't responded. It's annoying. His company "Zinchenko Development" seemed like the best option for building the storage, but it looks like I'll have to look for alternatives. Serhii Hnatiuk from "Hnatiuk & Partners. Construction" is the next logical step. I need to contact him and propose cooperation. Maksym Oliinyk and his agrodrones are also mentioned. This is an interesting technology that could help on the farm, although it's not a priority. It's worth meeting him to learn more, it might come in handy in the future. Tension with Bohdan Kravets remains, but for now, there are no direct conflicts. I need to focus on building the storage, it's the key to my independence.
Options
- Contact Serhii Hnatiuk to discuss the construction of the storage facility.
- Meet with Maksym Oliinyk to learn about his agrodrones.
- Try to contact Roman Zinchenko again.
- Do nothing this turn.
Choice. I choose to contact Serhii Hnatiuk, as he is a realistic alternative for building the storage facility, and Roman Zinchenko continues to ignore my requests. It is also worth meeting with Maksym Oliinyk to familiarize myself with new technologies.
Diary. 2027-04-09: No response from Zinchenko again. Time to look for new partners. Wrote to Serhii Hnatiuk regarding the construction of the storage facility. Also arranged a meeting with Maksym Oliinyk to learn about agrodrones. This could be useful in the future.

10 days have passed. Time is running out, and my main goal - independence from intermediaries in grain sales - is still far away. Zinchenko's disregard is irritating. I need to act. There are two ways: either insist on cooperation with Zinchenko, or look for an alternative. Serhii Hnatiuk with his construction company looks like a real alternative. He is involved in construction, and I need storage. Besides, Maksym Oliinyk is offering a meeting about agricultural drones. This is interesting, maybe it can also help in farming, although it's not the primary goal. I have 5 million UAH, so I can afford to invest in construction or new technologies. I think that first of all, I should focus on the main goal - storage. Therefore, a meeting with Hnatiuk seems more priority than with Oliinyk. But maybe it's worth trying to contact Zinchenko one more time before completely giving up on him. Or offer Hnatiuk immediately. The meeting with Maksym Oliinyk can wait, or I can suggest he meet later when I have more time. But he himself offered the meeting. Maybe I should accept his offer so as not to lose...
Options
- Accept Maksym Oliinyk's offer for a meeting and schedule it.
- Try to contact Roman Zinchenko again regarding the construction of a storage facility.
- Send Serhii Hnatiuk a proposal for cooperation on the construction of a grain storage facility.
- Postpone all issues related to storage and focus on Maksym Oliinyk's agricultural drones.
Choice. I choose the first option because Maksym Oliinyk has already offered a meeting, and it's worth using this opportunity to learn more about his project. It could be beneficial for my farm. I will schedule the meeting with Hnatiuk for another day.
Diary. 2027-03-09: Agreed to a meeting with Maksym Oliinyk regarding agricultural drones. This meeting will take place next Tuesday. I need to think about Serhii Hnatiuk if Zinchenko doesn't respond. For now, I'm focusing on Maksym.

10 days have passed. Still nothing concrete from Zinchenko regarding warehouse premises. This is annoying because it is key to my goal. On the other hand, a letter has arrived from Maksym Oliinyk with a proposal for a pilot project with agricultural drones. This is interesting, although it is not my main priority. It might be worth considering his proposal to maintain contact with potential new technologies. I will need to meet with him. Hryhorii Lytvyn promises modernization of treatment facilities, which is good for the environment, but does not concern my immediate affairs yet. The opposition demands a register of land decisions, and "Green Embankment" demands a moratorium on embankment development. This indicates a struggle for land, which is close to me. I need to keep my finger on the pulse. Kravets, as always, is trying to control the market. "Vilnyi Bereh" Bank is increasing loan requirements – this might be interesting for me if I am looking for financing for my own storage in the future, but for now, I have sufficient funds. My main goal is to sell grain without intermediaries, and this requires storage. Zinchenko is ignoring me, and Hnatiuk is the next person I see in this direction…
Options
- Meet with Maksym Oliinyk to discuss the pilot project with agricultural drones.
- Contact Serhii Hnatiuk regarding the construction of warehouse premises, as Roman Zinchenko is not responding.
- Order an analytical report on the grain storage market to find alternatives to elevators and intermediaries.
- Do nothing this turn, wait for a response from Roman Zinchenko.
Choice. I choose to meet with Maksym Oliinyk. His proposal for a pilot project with agricultural drones is new and may offer interesting opportunities to improve my farming processes, although it is not the main priority. It will not take much time and may prove useful.
Diary. 19.11.2027: Received a proposal from startup founder Maksym Oliinyk for a pilot project with agricultural drones. This is interesting, although it is not my primary goal. Agreed to a meeting next week. This step may open up new opportunities for my farm. Zinchenko continues to ignore. I will have to think about Hnatiuk if Zinchenko still doesn't respond.

Thoughts
10 days have passed. The situation in the city is developing, new initiatives are emerging, some cause concern. In particular, the logistics complex, which pensioners from Pivdenno-Zakhidnyi opposed. This may be related to the interests of other market players. My main goal is to sell grain directly, without intermediaries. To do this, I need my own storage facilities. Contact with Roman Zinchenko has not yet yielded results. Maksym Oliinyk is asking for a recommendation for a bank. This is interesting because he deals with agricultural drones, which may be related to my field. Vilnyi Bereh Bank is imposing new requirements on borrowers, which will make it difficult to obtain loans. I have 5 million UAH, but building or renting a warehouse will require more. We need to find ways. Perhaps it is worth contacting other deputies or businessmen, or trying to get information from the city authorities about available plots or programs. It is also worth mentioning Bohdan Kravets, who, I suspect, also wants to get land. It is unacceptable to let him monopolize the market. The primary task is to understand if there are real opportunities...
Options
- Contact Serhii Hnatiuk regarding the construction of warehouse premises.
- Order a report from the director of the city council's finance department on vacant plots near water that can be used for grain storage.
- Write to Maksym Oliinyk that I am ready to provide a recommendation, but I want to personally test his drone first.
- Meet with Larysa Ostapenko to discuss the possibilities of financing the construction of a grain storage facility.
Choice. I choose to contact Serhii Hnatiuk because Roman Zinchenko still doesn't provide concrete answers, and I need a reliable partner for building the shelter. Hnatiuk is another major player in the construction market, and his company may have the necessary experience and resources.
Diary. 10.11.2027: Despite Roman Zinchenko still not responding to my requests, I'm not going to wait forever. I need a reliable partner for building the shelter, and Serhii Hnatiuk, as the owner of the construction company 'Hnatiuk & Partners. Construction,' might be just who I'm looking for. I plan to offer him cooperation.
Turn 120 October 2026Write a message to Roman Zinchenko requesting a meeting. Offer a few time options convenient for me, but be prepared for his schedule. State that the issue concerns potential cooperation in the field of agricultural product storage. Expenses: 0 UAH.accepted

10 days have passed. The previous turn was on October 7th. It is now October 10th, 2026. My goal is to sell grain directly, bypassing intermediaries like Bohdan Kravets. To do this, I need to solve the issue of grain storage. I have already contacted Roman Zinchenko, but it seems we couldn't arrange a meeting. I need to try again. It's also worth finding out the current mood in the city, if there are any important events that could affect my plans. Chief editor Oleh Koval could be a source of such information. I have 5 million UAH, so I can afford some expenses for research or meetings.
Options
- Try again to arrange a meeting with Roman Zinchenko regarding grain storage.
- Contact Oleh Koval, chief editor of the newspaper "Chronicle 2046," to find out about current events in the city.
- Analyze the financial performance of your farm for the last period.
Choice. I choose to try again to arrange a meeting with Roman Zinchenko, as the issue of grain storage is a priority for achieving my goal. Information from Oleh Koval might be useful, but not as critical right now. Financial analysis can be done later.
Diary. 10.10.2026. I am trying again to contact Roman Zinchenko regarding the grain storage issue. This is a key step towards independence from intermediaries. I hope to arrange a meeting this time.
