If you want to know more, come to the dinner party tomorrow. "
Leaving the invitation, Ma Wei left the snow manor with Laiwen and Yunia.
Everything that needs to be said has been said, and the stakes have been clearly stated. He believes that he has attracted the attention of Baron Vladimir, as long as they come to the dinner the day after tomorrow...
The chances of convincing them are even greater.
"Boss."
On the carriage heading to the next noble residence, the message asked: "Baron Vladimir is the first noble we found. As for the eldest son of Count Rurus, Captain Shevtsov, and Kerr you mentioned Baron Brad and the others... didn't agree to attend the dinner at all! We didn't even meet them!"
Ma Wei glanced at him, "Do you know what negotiation capital is?"
"don't know."
"If I didn't say this, how could Baron Vladimir be interested in what we just said?" Mavey said with a smile while playing rock-paper-scissors with Yunia: "Beggars are not jealous of millionaires. But they will definitely be jealous of beggars who earn more than themselves. People are such creatures. They are very interested in the choices of people of the same status. As long as we make good use of this, we can turn them into puppets."
"But...Boss, the interest issue you mentioned to Baron Vladimir seems to be inconsistent with Her Highness Katerina's vision. She will not let nobles become monopoly business owners."
"I do not know either."
"Then why did you..."
"Hey, I lost again, Yunia is awesome!"
Ma Wei pinched Yunia's nose and answered the question without raising his head: "As the old saying goes, only by grasping people's needs can you achieve your goals. If I don't do this, they will be willing to pay. You can call me despicable, call me cowardly, call me unscrupulous, but I don’t care, because only in this way can the bloodshed be reduced and the Church of Truth can develop rapidly.”
After saying that, Ma Wei thought of the footprints on the snow again. He had roughly guessed the identity of the visitor, but if he wanted to be more sure...
It is necessary to recall the cat who monitors the Snow Manor. He did not take Fat Orange and Little Black with him when he went out this time, so he could only wait until he got back.
.....................................
"Father!"
Goffman picked up the invitation on the table and looked at the handwriting belonging to Katerina on it. He was so excited that he couldn't help himself: "I have decided to go to the dinner party the day after tomorrow!"
"Can you be of some use?"
Baron Vladimir couldn't bear it any longer and raised his hand to slap his son on the head: "They rushed to the door and scolded us. Are you quite happy?"
"He is telling the truth..." Goffman took the invitation and looked at it over and over: "No matter what you say, father, I have to go to Katerina's dinner party!"
"Go ahead and take a look."
"Um?"
Goffman looked at Baron Vladimir with a confused expression, "Father, have you changed your mind?"
"No, I'm just looking for a way out for you." Baron Vladimir put out his cigarette hard and said word by word: "You attending the dinner do not represent the Yegorov family, so even if the news about the dinner It’s leaked that I also had other reasons to explain in front of His Majesty Paul I, saying that you were young and ignorant, etc.”
"If the news of the dinner party is not leaked, it means that Her Royal Highness Katerina has done a good job in keeping secrets, and it also proves her strength from the side. At that time, we will secretly provide funding to her in your own name."
"Father..." Goffman opened his mouth: "Why does everything have to be done through me?"
"Because I'm not dead yet. As a military noble who follows His Majesty Paul I, as long as I don't express my position, the Yegorov family will always have a way out! As for Her Highness Katerina, with your important relationship, even if Paul If His Majesty fails, you will not be affected. At most, your father and I will be hanged."
"No, this won't work! I can't watch you, father, being hanged!"
"Don't be naive, how can there be a good thing that has the best of both worlds in the world?" Baron Vladimir's face was solemn, and he didn't look like he was joking at all.
He knew in his heart what would happen to the aristocratic faction once Katerina won.
Someone has to pay the price for what he has done in the past, and someone like him who plays both sides will have the most miserable fate. Unless he follows one side firmly now, only then can he have a chance to save his family.
but....
Having said that, Baron Vladimir still did not want to put the fate of his family in the same basket. The reason why he agreed to Goffman's participation in the dinner was to express his stance to Katerina in a tactful way.
The price for hedging your bets was his head.
In order to protect Goffman and the Yegorov family, Baron Vladimir put himself on the gambling table.
"I...I'm not going to the dinner party."
Goffman put down the invitation with a pale face and backed down.
"Idiot!" Baron Vladimir scolded sternly: "How can you attract the attention of Her Royal Highness Katerina with your cowardly look? Men must have backbone! Pick up the invitation! You are still not me Vladimir... Egorov’s son?!”
After saying that, Baron Vladimir's eyes softened a little, and he said seriously: "I'm not a fool. I can escape from the country before Her Highness Katerina wins. Our family has saved a lot of money over the years, and there is no need to do anything for it." Life is a worry, so just go to the dinner party with peace of mind, as long as your father is here, the sky will not fall."
.............................
In the evening, after visiting several nobles, the Mawei people returned to Tyumen City.
The trick used by Baron Vladimir was reused several times, and the effect was remarkable. Two nobles even immediately expressed their willingness to attend Katerina's dinner party. This was really good news for the Church of Truth.
Passing by the warehouse where wheat flour was accumulated outside the city, Ma Wei stopped the carriage and specifically went to find Fat Orange, asking him to recall Maomao who was responsible for monitoring the Snow Manor and ask for information about the visitors in the afternoon.
Fat Orange didn't hesitate and immediately set off for the snowy manor. When he came back, there was a blue cat beside him.
"Let's find out clearly."
As soon as he returned to the church, Fat Orange found Mavey and quickly said: "In the afternoon, a young man did visit Baron Vladimir. At that time, the blue cat was lying on the tree and saw him."
"Who is that person?"
"Finn Drost." Fat Orange said, "That's the young man you met at Duke Cabbage's house."
"It is indeed him."
Ma Wei's heart sank. He was not at all complacent about his keen intuition, but his face looked a little ugly.
Finn Drost found Baron Vladimir, which meant that he guessed his next move, planned it in advance, and changed a way to transport funds into the Romanov Kingdom.
No wonder Baron Vladimir personally greeted them. There was such a big benefactor. What happened to the greeting?
It's quite a bit like the financial backers behind the scenes are giving gifts to the beggar...
"Under normal circumstances, after being rejected by us, Citigroup Federal Bank should not continue to rush to send money. In doing so, they must have seen huge benefits, or... a conspiracy."
Ma Wei was puzzled. If there were huge benefits to funding the Romanov Kingdom, he could understand it. However, if Citibank was secretly funding them through the nobles, this behavior did not occupy the moral high ground. On the contrary, after being exposed, Will be laughed at by others.
No normal person would do such a shameless and embarrassing thing, but that's exactly what Finn Drost did.
This makes Ma Wei think more and more...
Citibank's move is brewing a huge conspiracy.
"Is it possible... that Citigroup Federal Bank is not targeting us? It is the Wisdom Cult?"
Fat Orange, who was in deep thought, suddenly said: "After all, before the establishment of the United States of America, it was ruled by the Kingdom of Poppont and the Kingdom of Windsor. If it was for revenge, it might be possible to cause trouble secretly."
"There is no hatred in the eyes of capital, only interests." Ma Wei shook his head: "According to your thinking, rather than seeking revenge, it is better to say that the United States of Citi is competing for the number one position in the world. From the perspective of comprehensive strength, it can currently stabilize The only ones holding them back are the Kingdom of Windsor and the Kingdom of Poppont."
"Boss, could this young man named Finn Drost be a member of the Free Society?" The message hesitated: "Think about it, they are funding the Church of Truth, and their purpose is to provoke a conflict between us and the Wisdom Religion. The fight, as the saying goes, a dog bites a dog, and the hair in its mouth... Ah, I didn't say that we are dogs. In short, Citibank Federal Bank subsidizes us, allowing us to act as a vanguard and weaken the strength of the Wisdom Cult and the Kingdom of Windsor. In this case, Their chances will be greater, right?"
"But doing so may create a powerful enemy." Fat Orange reminded.
"But no one knows whether Finn Drost is a member of the Free Association!" The letter slapped his thigh and said firmly: "The Romanov Kingdom has such a vast land and rich resources. If we establish a good relationship with us, in the future It’s very convenient to import and export any kind of goods, including iron ore!”
"Besides, it is better for the Romanov Kingdom to become the foothold of the Church of Truth than to fall into the hands of the Church of Wisdom and the Church of the Three Goddesses of Destiny! The threat of three wolves is definitely smaller than that of two lions!"
"What do you think, Boss?"
After listening to the letter and Fat Orange's thoughts, Ma Wei thought what they said was reasonable.
If Finn Droste was a member of the Free Society, many doubts would be solved instantly.
The problem is that...
How to tell if Finn Droste is a member of the Free Society?
"I'm going to meow!" Xiao Hei patted his chest and said, "Master, you turn me into a beautiful woman, and I'm going to sell my lust and use the beautiful cat to Finn Droste... No, the beautiful cat trap!"
"Pull it down, you don't think it's disgusting but I do. Are you addicted to the beautiful cat trick?"
Ma Wei, who still wanted to fuck Xiao Hei more in the future, directly rejected this unreliable proposal and looked at the message: "As the Rose Phantom Thief, collecting target information in advance should be your specialty, right?"
"...I don't need a honey trap!"
"No one asked you to use a honey trap. I'm just asking you, is there any good way?"
The source frowned in thought, and nodded after a while: "The core members of the Free Association all have eye of power tattoos on their bodies. This is one of their ways to identify their companions. In other words, as long as they monitor Finn Drost's daily life That's enough...Leave this matter to me. When it comes to infiltration, no one is better than me, the Rose Phantom Thief."
