"Hello Hermann," said Valentin, "I have a deal for you."244Please respect copyright.PENANAWw85VbWQ6O
"Hello Valentin, my old swindler," answered Hermann, while he was hugging him. "Doing deals is my business."244Please respect copyright.PENANAtO19MECAe8
"I lost a half of my men, weapons and horses. You are good at making deals."244Please respect copyright.PENANAv2isaTzKp7
"I don't wonder," said Hermann. "But I won't give you money. You haven't paid for the last case."244Please respect copyright.PENANAx9fPQIKSH1
"Here's the deal, listen, when we get the money for the next campaign..."244Please respect copyright.PENANAAzzxAmt9hh
"And where are you going to join with your ragamuffins?"244Please respect copyright.PENANA4j1AJxKGxG
"Isn't it some kind of job for the Moscow prince?"244Please respect copyright.PENANA8z8axhfbgP
"Yeah, right here their recruiting teams are running around," Hermann chuckled. "What do you need is to drag your ass to Moscow."244Please respect copyright.PENANA3I6reXhLTY

Valentin spoke about disasters of his squad.244Please respect copyright.PENANABHlBwHd0Cx

"Wait a second! Are you talking about Irene Fireman?" Hermann looked worried.244Please respect copyright.PENANAzC1enx4Sus
"Are you familiar with her?"244Please respect copyright.PENANAPn5MYCBKXc
"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, Nicolas and I settled in the Hermann's house.244Please respect copyright.PENANA6XkM7f8swf
Maria-Cecilia, Hermann's wife, was dissatisfied with this. Because we boarded without payment.244Please respect copyright.PENANAOVL3Bx6Opx
"You are slackers!" she hourly said to us. "You must comply with my rules. My house. My rules!"244Please respect copyright.PENANAKB9kWoaUxD
She called Nicolas "a smug Breton bastard," even though he didn't deserve to be treated like that.244Please respect copyright.PENANArXo5pXbsXt
She scolded me for thick eyebrows, I was very upset because of it.244Please respect copyright.PENANAlYHo0vDmwX

"G.P. Basil! You Are the Man!" Valentin exclaimed.244Please respect copyright.PENANAr6XKjEZ53u
