Since the last time he met Arkady, Saradov has been living in seclusion and living like an ascetic monk. It's not that he has become enlightened, but that he really doesn't dare to go out. He is worried that he will be raped as soon as he steps out of the monastery.
The people from the Governor's Palace or the City Defense Headquarters will arrest him.
He was so disappointed in Arkady. He could see that the other party was not sincere at all. It was very likely that he would be kicked away as soon as he handed over something valuable.
Saladov knows that the information he possesses is the only thing that can turn him around, so he will not trust anyone until he is completely sure. This information is the foundation of his life.
But he didn't know how long he could hold on. Although he could live in the monastery forever, life here was too miserable. There was no other food except black bread and water every day. What was even scarier was that there was no entertainment at all.
There is really nothing else to do except pray, repent and recite sutras.
For a person like him, this is simply torture. How much he wants to return to a normal life, without talking about sensuality and sensuality. He will be satisfied if he can have a sumptuous meal, watch an opera and attend a dance.
Already.
Unfortunately, this is completely impossible for the time being, because Saladov does not know how to maximize the value of the information in his hands. Apart from Orest and Arkady, he has no other acquaintances in Bucharest, but these two people are
It was unreliable, and he was very distressed for a while.
Because he couldn't go to Count Vladimir's house and ask for a meeting directly. Not to mention whether he would see him, Arkady was Count Vladimir's secretary. Once he heard that he came to his door, would he know who he was?
What's going on? I'm afraid Arkady will try his best to kill him by then.
Saradov felt like crying. He didn't know how he got to this point. If he had known this, he shouldn't have come to Bucharest to try his luck...
This idea was ruthlessly rejected by Saladov as soon as it came up, because if he did not come to Bucharest, he would be dead. That bastard Yerosin had made it clear that he was going to mess with him, and it would be absolutely doomed to stay in Hungary.
"hehe……"
Saradov smiled bitterly, because he felt that he was just a coffee table, filled with all kinds of cups and tableware. He would die if he came or not, so why was there no way to survive?
He was very depressed and depressed, huddled in a pile on the straw bed of the monastery, like a frightened little animal. But he didn't know that his fate would soon undergo more wonderful changes...
"Did those two fools try their best?"
Unlike Saradov, Viscount Prozolov was in a very good mood. He was sitting in front of the window leisurely, admiring the scenery of the Danube River with a steaming cup of fine black tea.
Behind him, a middle-aged man whose whole body was wrapped in a black coat and whose face could not be seen clearly answered with his hands lowered: "Marquis Golitsyn just visited Count Vladimir. He was in a good mood when he came back. He should meet with that count."
An agreement was reached... As for Count Melkov, he has been holding back, only encouraging Marquis Golitsyn from time to time..."
Viscount Prozolov nodded with satisfaction. He knew the characters of the two people very well. One was simple-minded and self-righteous, and the other was full of bad intentions and liked to stir up trouble. Together, these two people can definitely play the role of one plus one.
The effect of two is not worth his careful selection of these two guys.
"Keep watching them, and notify me immediately if anything happens!" Viscount Prozolov waved his hand to dismiss the man in black, and then began to observe a small fishing boat in the Danube River with relish. He watched the fishermen throwing their fishing nets.
Watching the fisherman cleaning up his harvest, he said to himself for a long time:
"The net has been set, don't let me down!"
Different from Viscount Prozolov's leisurely life, Li Xiao has been very busy recently. His military police have to keep an eye on several important targets, which makes the manpower a little stretched.
"...How about arresting Saradov directly? This man hides in the monastery all day long. There is really no point in staring at him!"
In response to Anton's suggestion, Li Xiao just shook his head gently and replied thoughtfully: "Don't worry, I think this Saladov is still useful! It would be a pity to arrest him now!"
Anton smiled bitterly and spread his hands: "But in this way, we not only have to monitor Count Vladimir and his secretary Arkady, but also keep an eye on Viscount Prozolov and his two assistants. We have a lot of manpower.
I’m so nervous...I suspect that as long as there is any change in these targets, our people will not be able to keep an eye on them!"
Li Xiao sighed in his heart. For him, the time he has been operating in Bucharest is still too short. Although the military police he hastily built are all elite and capable, their number is really limited. They can still do the job if they only focus on one or two limited targets.
, once there are too many goals, it becomes a bit overwhelming.
To put it bluntly, there is still not enough background and not enough talents available. And this blame also has something to do with Leonid, because Li Xiao likes to find talents from the army most. Compared with those untrained rabble, even the gray Russian army
Animals can be put to great use with just a little training.
Especially after they started to popularize the literacy program at the grassroots level of the army, there was a real surge of talents in the army. But Leonid didn't let go of any of these people, and held them all tightly in his hands. It was a waste of natural resources!
He and Alexei had already reacted to this many times. The Governor-General of Wallachia paid for the local garrison to improve their illiteracy, and they were not doing voluntary labor. They could not pay but could not get a single talent. He hoped that Aleksei
Lexey put pressure on Leonid, and they must allocate enough talents to their side, otherwise the literacy plan will be cancelled!
Of course, Li Xiao didn't really want to cancel the literacy program, but to force Leonid to make concessions. He felt that Leonid had no overall perspective and was only focusing on his own side. Imagine if they hadn't provided money and teachers.
How can the local garrison become literate? This money is not a small amount of money. You, Leonid, can't just enjoy the benefits without paying anything!
But Alexey is also in a dilemma, because Leonid is also his good friend after all. Now the conflict between the two good friends is very sharp, and he is in a dilemma. Help Li Xiao, Leonid's side
It’s hard to explain. Don’t help Li Xiao. What someone said does make sense. They can’t spend their money in vain, right?
"I can only talk to Leonid and ask him to divert some talents to us. Don't be so aggressive. Everyone should take a step back!"
