Malov not hesitate to devote all his wealth to manage and modernize the old ranch. His business was soon showed rapid development. The factory produces milk, butter and other dairy products of high quality throughout the region, even to reach the capital.
However, things began to change when some unknown people visited his ranch, later known as the officers of the FSB, a Russian internal security service. They persuaded Malov to sell his business. Malov not approve. FSB agents threatened to imprison Malov if it continues to refuse. Tatiana, wife Malov, sure they are paid that are sent by someone who is involved in property development because the factories owned dairy Malov included in the land to be used as the main city center.
Do not stop there, Malov indicted on charges of fraud. He is accused of not using the loan according to the goals set in the agreement with the bank.
