Of course, the traditional landowners could not imagine how much wealth the industrial revolution could create. Wallachia could only be considered a small handicraft workshop at best. The wealth produced through industrialization was enough to overwhelm the landowners who were digging in the soil. You can imagine what would happen in Russia.
What a monster the behemoth will become after it is fully industrialized.
It's just that traditional landowners like Lizaveta or Count Uvarov can never imagine such a grand occasion. They only have the most traditional methods of exploitation in their eyes, and they only know how to squeeze those poor mud-legged people. To be honest,
Very unworthy of publicity!
“Are these numbers credible?”
Elizaveta immediately expressed doubts because this number was too outrageous. In her opinion, how could a remote country like Wallachia have such a good harvest.
The local snake hesitated for a moment and then replied: "Part of it is an estimate, and the other part is what I found out."
Yelizaveta knew it was unreliable just as she was about to say it, but who would have thought that the local snake would immediately add: "But this number is definitely an underestimate, not an overestimate. From my understanding, if there are not enough benefits,
There is no way that Lord Governor can basically bring the entire Wallachian nobles into submission!"
Yelizaveta was stunned, because this reason was indeed quite sufficient, and the performance of the Wallachian nobles was the last word. Her brother had also tried to recruit a group of Wallachian nobles to cause trouble for Alexei before, but those who were willing to respond
There were only a few three-legged cats in the end.
Most of them are small characters like local snakes in front of her, and they are of no great use at all. This is enough to show Alexei's success in Wallachia. Being able to govern this country obediently is his skill.
.
Even if they are in a hostile state, Lizaveta admits this, because this is an objective fact that cannot be changed by their will.
Since this is an objective fact, what the local snake just said is naturally more credible. However, the huge profits conflict with Yelizaveta's cognition, because in her opinion, this is absolutely
possible!
She was conflicted for a moment, wondering whether she should believe these numbers. At this moment, Alexey's voice came to her ears: "Welcome, dear Marquise, to see St. Petersburg in a foreign country."
Old friend, this is so delightful!"
Yelizaveta quickly shook those miscellaneous thoughts out of her mind and replied with a smile: "You are so kind, Earl. Indeed, it feels good to see old friends in a foreign country!"
After a slight pause, she continued to smile: "By the way, count, how long has it been since we last met? I can't even remember the last time we met. It seems like a century!"
Alexey said something in his heart, knowing that the woman in front of him must not be underestimated, and quickly cheered up and said: "Has it been that long? I always feel that yesterday in St. Petersburg is always yesterday, those things
Those people always appear before my eyes. It is those wonderful pasts that inspire me to strive in Wallachia and give me endless motivation!"
Yelizaveta's face also changed slightly. It was not that she had never dealt with Alexei before, but back then in St. Petersburg Alexei was the one who was beaten by her. He was always bullied into silence.
He said that sometimes he had to rely on Prince Gorchakov's boy to help save the situation.
And now someone actually told her that these past events were still vivid in his mind and inspired him to fight. Isn't this a challenge to her face?
Yelizaveta also increased her vigilance, feeling more and more that this time there would be no good party. Of course, she remained calm on the surface and replied very calmly: "Really? I can't remember those things.
, there are too many similar little facts, if no one mentions them, I really won’t bother to remember them!”
Alexey chuckled in his heart. He could also feel that Yelizaveta's counterattack was sharp, and she pushed him back effortlessly. But he was no longer Wu Xia Amon, so he stabbed again with a smile.
One sentence:
"Really? Then you are really a noble person who forgets things a lot. With a hard working life like me, I have no choice but to remember everything clearly so as not to forget it when I settle accounts in the future, don't you think so?
"
The word "settlement" is a bit harsh. Elizaveta knew exactly what Alexei wanted to settle with her. The only thing that surprised her was that Alexei actually told her clearly. What did this mean?
Yelizaveta's mind was spinning very fast. The purpose of her trip was naturally to test Alexei and see if Alexei was the culprit behind her brother's two and three failures. In her opinion, Alexei
If Xie is the culprit, then he should hide his hatred for the Uvarov family well, slowly accumulate strength, and then wait for the opportunity to retaliate. It is best to hide himself as harmless as possible.
But now Alexei obviously didn't mean this. Not only did he talk to her about his previous hatred as soon as he came up, but he also threatened her both inside and outside his words, as if he couldn't wait to get revenge.
This is too childish for Lizaveta. Yes, you Alexei are a figure in Wallachia, but what is Wallachia? It is just a state in Russia, and you, the governor, are at best
That is to say, a high-ranking official, what capital does he have in front of the Uvarov family at the top of the pyramid?
This kind of behavior is simply ridiculously childish, just like a jealous young man, with no authority at all. How can this happen?
Elizaveta felt that she was overestimating Alexey and Wallachia. If the other party was at this level, they would not be able to compete with the culprit behind the scenes.
However, Lizaveta did not relax her vigilance immediately. Count Uvarov once told her that some of the most dangerous bugs are best at disguising, and disguising is not just about pretending to be weak. On the contrary, they can also pretend to be powerful.
The look you most want to see.
This type of bug is particularly dangerous and the most difficult to deal with. As for whether Alexei is this type of bug, Lizaveta thinks it remains to be seen, so it is best not to rush to conclusions.
"Really?" Yelizaveta smiled slightly and said sarcastically: "Then you have a bit of a grudge, but aren't you tired of remembering everything clearly? And it's very likely that you won't be able to settle the score in your life? That's not for you.
More painful?"
These words are quite heartbreaking, almost saying that Alexei will never be able to take revenge in his life. So is Alexei angry after hearing this? Of course he is a little bit, but he is no longer the childish person he was back then.
