Struggle in Russia - Vol 3 Chapter 897
Li Xiao was very critical of Count Rostovtsev’s negligence. If he was the Count of Rostovtsev, he would definitely have to do something. Whether it was a reminder or a warning, it must be done as soon as possible, otherwise he was worried that it would take a long time. The rifts within the reformists, which are a mess of sand, simply cannot be healed.
It is a pity that he is not the count of Rostovtsev. Even if he jumps out and shouts, no one will care, and he will even be regarded as an alarmist and pretend to be sober. The result is probably thankless.
So he could only hold back, even in front of Nicholas Milyuting, he didn’t say a word, but he really returned to his own circle and he couldn’t help but spit at a few friends:
“The reform hasn’t started yet, just leave it to your imagination, what good results can you get if you go on like this!”
Alexey sighed softly: “Yes, I also found that in the situation you mentioned, almost all salons are discussing the future, but not many people pay attention to the present. Isn’t the present the most important?”
After speaking, he sighed again: “It seems that the reform has become imperative and there is no resistance, so blindly optimistic, the consequences are really hard to say!”
If Li Xiao is the only one who thinks things are wrong, there may still be a miscalculation for Vishniak, Boris, Muravyov and Leonid, but Alexei also said the same, how many of them will attract attention.
After all, they also saw the trend in this period. Although they felt that there was no harm in imagining the future, if one side is all about imagining the future but no one thinks about how to go on the road under their feet, this situation is definitely not normal.
“What’s more terrifying is that I can’t say anything about it,” Li Xiao also sighed, “Now those guys have gone crazy, and they can’t listen to any criticism at all!”
Rarely, Leonid also expressed his opinion: “Andre is right, I have seen several guys who are crazy, only yy is left in their minds, just like smoking yapian, completely crazy!”
Vishniak and Boris glanced at each other, and then looked at the faces of some of their friends, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed, because they were one of the people who got into trouble. During this period of time, they have been bragging about the mountains in major salons. Looking at the serious faces of Li Xiao and others, and thinking about the bragging rights, the two of them are embarrassed.
After a long while, Boris said hesitantly: “Is it so serious? It’s actually just some beautiful imagination, no need to be like this…”
He quickly closed his mouth before he finished speaking, because Li Xiao, Alexei, Muravyov and Leonid all stared at him, and eight pairs of eyes locked him like searchlights, making him feel pressure Mountain big.
He quickly added: “Well, I just said it casually. You all know that sometimes I don’t think through my mind. If I say something wrong, you don’t have to hear it…”
Vishniak is not as reckless as him, and he won’t foolishly hit the muzzle, he just asked carefully: “How to solve this problem? Just like Andrei said, those guys don’t listen to any criticism at all. It’s useless to reason with them, right?”
This is also the most worrying issue for Li Xiao and others. Once they don’t listen to reasonable criticism, they will either be crazy or die. It would be easy if it was just “imagining the future”, the problem now is that they just want to imagine the future and they refuse to be criticized for “imagining the future”,
It’s a big headache to give people the hat of stubborn conservatives at every turn, and put them on the line.
It’s just that none of these friends can do anything about this, because the general environment is like this, and now it’s a nationwide madman, but the sober ones are a minority, so what can we do? Hold on!
“Forget it, don’t mention it,” Li Xiao waved his hand and changed the subject: “We don’t talk about this matter, at most it’s just a reminder, just do your duty. I still think about what to do now. Do your job!” wap..
After speaking, he turned to Alexei and asked, “My friend, has everything been arranged in Wallachia?”
Alexei nodded and said: “It’s all explained properly, there will be no mistakes. The investment of us and our partners will be protected before, and there should be no mistakes!”
Li Xiao asked again: “What about the income? Is the settlement clear?”
Alexey nodded again, took out a list and read: “This is the final summary result, after clearing all the accounts in the past few years, we probably earned a total of 475 in Wallachia. 10,000 rubles, according to the previous plan, most of them will be reinvested again… The amount for dividends is about 750,000 rubles…”
This figure made Vishniak and Boris involuntarily widen their eyes, because although they all knew that their investments in Wallachia had made money in recent years, they did not know how much they had made.
Although there have been excessive dividends before, but before and after the Crimean War, they re-invested because of the shortage of funds, so the real money they actually got was only more than 20,000 rubles.
Although more than 20,000 rubles is not a small number~www.mtlnovel.com~ This is a huge sum of money for the vast majority of Russians and even Russian nobles, but to tell the truth, their life is not very rich, after all, in all aspects The expenses are not small, that is to say, they have probably made a living in the past few years and have not saved any money.
Naturally, they heard that they had earned nearly 5 million rubles in total, and that the dividend was as high as 750,000 rubles this time, their breathing was a little short.
At this time, there was only one thought left in the two of them, and that was to quickly calculate how much money they could get.
Alexey didn’t mean to betray, and quickly gave the answer: “Boris and Vishniak, you can share 80,000 rubles each according to the agreement, and the rest of Andrei and Leonid are ours. Each of the three can share more than 190,000 rubles, so there should be no objection?”
In fact, 200,000 rubles is not a particularly large number for Alexei and Leonid, especially Alexei, he has already inherited the title, and the properties left by his father can be provided every year to His annuity is nearly 300,000 rubles, and earning 200,000 rubles in a few years is really not much.
As for Leonid, because his father, Duke Alexander, is still alive, he naturally does not have so much annuity income, but the Gorchakov family is a lot stronger than the Alexei family. Although his annual income is not as much as 200,000 yuan, It is not difficult to make eight or ninety thousand or even a hundred thousand a year.
As for Li Xiao, when he took back the cheap Lao Tzu’s property from Nicholas I, his income could beat the two above, and naturally he didn’t take the 200,000 yuan into his eyes.
So in addition to Boris and Vishniak, Muravyov was surprised…_&
