"Hello Hermann," said Valentin, "I have a deal for you."247Please respect copyright.PENANAaPuXeUn39b
"Hello Valentin, my old swindler," answered Hermann, while he was hugging him. "Doing deals is my business."247Please respect copyright.PENANA8QWGG72pMk
"I lost a half of my men, weapons and horses. You are good at making deals."247Please respect copyright.PENANAUSfDUXYZwv
"I don't wonder," said Hermann. "But I won't give you money. You haven't paid for the last case."247Please respect copyright.PENANAlbYB2eLd4H
"Here's the deal, listen, when we get the money for the next campaign..."247Please respect copyright.PENANADciUMK6EvV
"And where are you going to join with your ragamuffins?"247Please respect copyright.PENANAN2h5aBRcaZ
"Isn't it some kind of job for the Moscow prince?"247Please respect copyright.PENANAD0BEHkLRNP
"Yeah, right here their recruiting teams are running around," Hermann chuckled. "What do you need is to drag your ass to Moscow."247Please respect copyright.PENANAWMr09ut694

Valentin spoke about disasters of his squad.247Please respect copyright.PENANAllfNDdJKE4
247Please respect copyright.PENANA0bzuncmMrZ
"Wait a second! Are you talking about Irene Fireman?" Hermann looked worried.247Please respect copyright.PENANAaWDsanBuqZ
"Are you familiar with her?"247Please respect copyright.PENANAWnVcI4nUJa
"Thank God no! But I've heard about her. Dangerous woman, praise God that she didn't sell your company into slavery on the way here!" said Hermann and muttered. "So, she came to Kazan, I wonder on what business?"

Valentin's men ran from him in all directions. Because he had no money for this campaign.247Please respect copyright.PENANAes861F9eKZ
Nicodemus became a stableman.

Valentin, Nicolas and I settled in the Hermann's house.247Please respect copyright.PENANARIS676TFah
Maria-Cecilia, Hermann's wife, was dissatisfied with this. Because we boarded without payment.247Please respect copyright.PENANAbptJld2gqy
"You are slackers!" she hourly said to us. "You must comply with my rules. My house. My rules!"247Please respect copyright.PENANAM9NtlceC3n
She called Nicolas "a smug Breton bastard," even though he didn't deserve to be treated like that.247Please respect copyright.PENANAyZSoGbjZrB
She scolded me for thick eyebrows, I was very upset because of it.247Please respect copyright.PENANA39GvoDgW6o

"G.P. Basil! You Are the Man!" Valentin exclaimed.247Please respect copyright.PENANAuh5NVtmQaV
Maria-Cecilia asked when we would vacate.
