Struggle in Russia

Vol 3 Chapter 340: opportunity

Sergey was so bitter that he couldn’t pour out. He didn’t like Kiev at all, and he didn’t like the arrangement of Count Rostovtsev at all. But let him directly refuse the arrangement of Count Rostovtsev, he really didn’t have the guts.

But Sergey is smart! He refused directly to save the country by not daring to curve, and saw that he said to Count Rostovtsev in a twitchy manner:

“Do you think this will work? Can you give me more time? I want to learn more about the situation in Kiev. Otherwise, if you arrange for me to come over, I don’t know how to carry out the work. Maybe it will ruin your business. I will understand first. About the situation in Kiev, familiarize yourself with all aspects. If I have this certainty, then I will come to Kiev. How about?”

Sergey felt that he was too smart, and he had fully learned the true meaning of tactfully rejecting feelings. He felt that Count Rostovtsev would probably not continue to force himself to come to Kiev immediately, as long as he succeeded in delaying it. During this time, Count Rostovtsev might have forgotten about it.

It’s really impossible. He would just think about what would make Count Rostovtsev take his life back after playing the emotional card.

Count Rostovtsev looked at Sergei and replied after a little thought: “It’s okay to get familiar, but move fast. The position I can get is overdue, if you hesitate. If you miss it, there will be no more.”

Sergey thought: I missed it! I just don’t want to stay in Kiev!

Suddenly he suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and nodded and promised: “Don’t worry, I will make a decision as soon as possible!”

Count Rostovtsev looked at him again, and said nothing, but waved his hand to let Sergey go out.

Why not say something? Didn’t Count Rostovtsev see that Sergey was evasive?

How can it not be seen? Count Rostovtsev saw it really, and Sergei couldn’t hide his careful thoughts from him. But for Count Rostovtsev, he had already given the opportunity, and at any rate he made it very clear. If Sergei missed it, it was his own choice and his life, no wonder others.

Of course, Count Rostovtsev knew that Sergey would probably miss it, because his vision or ambition was really only that small, and he was not really a big person.

For example, this time, Count Rostovtsev asked him to stay in Kiev, but Van Sergey would be able to realize that this arrangement was very unusual if he was ambitious. Do you think Count Rostovtsev could not know the effect of the gilding of the Council of State and the military attaché?

He knew it, but he didn’t help Sergey to make such an arrangement. The reason must be very important. On the one hand, he felt that Sergei really needed to increase the experience at the grassroots level. It would be best if he could make up for this shortcoming in Kiev. On the other hand, he also felt that Sergey should leave the circle of St. Petersburg. He felt that that circle could not give Sergey any benefits, on the contrary, it had become a stumbling block.

In the end, Count Rostovtsev felt that it is not a bad thing for young people to suffer a bit. If they can’t endure a bit of suffering, what else can they do?

Most importantly, Count Rostovtsev would certainly not harm his secretary. He plans to take Ukraine into his hands this time, and he plans to replace the governor and several key positions with his own.

Obviously, if you want to really control your own people in these key positions in Kiev, it is very important. Although Sergey had some problems, Count Rostovtsev was still willing to give him the opportunity to make him one of the keys to controlling Kiev.

In the eyes of Count Rostovtsev, Sergey worked well in Kiev for two or three years on the one hand to settle down and on the other hand to help him control Ukraine. A few years later, there is bound to be a big improvement, and then it is a good choice whether to go back to St. Petersburg or go further to more important positions in Ukraine.

At least it is much better than being an imperial attendant, a military attache, or spending time in a nonsense place like the State Council.

It’s a pity that Sergey didn’t understand his painstaking efforts at all. He just wanted to stay in the small circle of St. Petersburg, pretending to be a fox and a wolf with a big tail. To be honest, it is short-sighted and lacking in ability and ambition.

Count Rostovtsev was extremely disappointed with him, and he didn’t even want to give him an important position in Kiev, because even if he stayed, he didn’t have the intention to do it well, in case the business for him was delayed, the gain would not be worth the loss.

After thinking about it, Count Rostovtsev simply gave him a chance to think about it. On the one hand, he let Sergei think carefully and see if he can wake up. On the other hand, he also has to make more preparations, entrusting the position that was originally intended for Sergey to a more suitable person.

That’s why he told Sergey that the opportunity was rarely overdue. This was both a beating and the last reminder of the division commander.

Not to mention that Sergey wanted to delay the time, while Anton was still conscientiously carrying out the tasks assigned by Count Rostovtsev. He kept a close eye on Grand Duke Constantine, and then also on Viscount Prozolov.

Li Xiao had explained to him before that Viscount Prozolov was definitely more important and dangerous than Grand Duke Constantine, and keeping a close eye on him was much more useful than watching the little fat man.

Anton listened to Li Xiao’s teachings wholeheartedly~www.wuxiax.com~ So he went out and stared at Viscount Prozolov himself, and then he really found a lot of things. For example, Petrovna’s hiding place, such as the existence of Lavre, such as the small movements that Viscount Prozolov instructed Petrovna and Lavre to make, he can see all of them clearly.

He saw clearly that it was naturally impossible to conceal Count Rostovtsev, which saved Count Rostovtsev a lot of time and energy, at least not having to try to guess the actions of Grand Duke Constantine.

The overall situation is like opening the cheating mode, every move in every aspect is in sight, so that Count Rostovtsev can calmly face all situations, such as the case of Merkulova.

Anyway, Count Rostovtsev was very satisfied with Anton’s performance, especially after he was completely disappointed with Sergei, he had an idea: Can Anton be given a bigger stage and let this ordinary young man People show their talents better.

This idea reached its culmination after Sergei chose to delay the time. Count Rostovtsev decided to call Anton over and take a closer look, because he vaguely felt that Anton was more suitable for his plan. Candidate. If this young man can seize the opportunity, then he will give him a chance to display his talents.
