Struggle in Russia

The Earl of Perth began to change his impression of Li Xiao, because this overly young little man had sharp eyes and a sharp mouth, so he was not afraid to offend him. Such people must have backgrounds, and they are by no means obscure rats.

But what makes the Earl of Perth strange is that he hasn't heard of any big figures in French politics or high society with the surname Diomede, but the little man in front of him does not seem to be pretending to be hypocritical.

After a moment of contemplation, the Earl of Perth felt that Li Xiao should be the illegitimate son of an adult in France. Only in this way could the problem be explained.

Thinking of this, the Earl of Perth became interested in the "pro-dad" behind Li Xiao. Who would this "pro-dad" be? And does this "daddy" send an illegitimate child to him at this point in time, is there any implication?

For a moment, the Earl of Perth thought so much that he forgot that he was still talking to Li Xiao and David Lobeuf.

"Sorry, I suddenly thought of something and lost my mind!"

The Earl of Perth's attitude has undergone a significant change. From the beginning of his indifference, he has become more active, and he doesn't care that Li Xiao's words just don't listen to him.

"You are right, my current identity is particularly embarrassing... so even if I have the ambition to serve the country, I have no way to display it!"

The Earl of Perth pretended to sigh, but the real purpose was to probe Li Xiao's "daddy" on the back: "The domestic political environment is really too bad. It is always indiscriminately indiscriminate. It was the same in 1795, and it is still true today. I Individuals are very willing to serve the people, but there are always people who attack me with all kinds of unreasonable reasons, which makes me really tired!"

Lebeuver was a little surprised. He first looked at the Earl of Perth and then at Li Xiao. He clearly heard the conversation between the two people just now, but how could the development trend of things be completely different from what he estimated?

Lebeuf was sweating for Li Xiao just now, because he knew what the Earl of Perth was. This guy is a hard-core Orleans supporter and a royalist. The hereditary aristocracy is really the nose, not the nose, the eyes are not the eyes, and they are not placed in the corner of the eye.

The main reason why this product was sent to Hungary to be the consul general was that he was too far-sighted when he was in the country, and had a bad relationship with a group of financial aristocrats and emerging capitalists. In desperation, he can only send him abroad to avoid annoying.

When Lebeuver introduced Li Xiao just now, he didn’t bring a title. Obviously he was not a nobleman, so he was very worried that the earl’s bull-tempered temper would rise again. This made him particularly restrained. In addition, he emphasized his achievements in Wallachia. Improving the importance of Li Xiao not to be underestimated.

But what is the situation right now? Has this guy with such a great head post changed **** recently?

Just when Lebeuf’s mind was full of question marks, Li Xiao spoke: "I sympathize with your experience, but for the time being, it seems that this bad reality cannot be changed, so the only thing that can be changed is We are ourselves..."

The Earl of Perth frowned slightly, because he didn't want this answer. He was going to start with those words, and then along the way, he brought out Li Xiao's background and his "father", but who would think of someone? As soon as the front of the conversation turned around, the topic was missed.

What the Earl of Perth didn’t expect was that Li Xiao took advantage of the situation and said: “I think you’re better off doing some achievements in your tone of self-sorrow. This can show your ability and silence those who attack you. In addition, you can also take the opportunity to do a little business in Hungary, even if the worst situation occurs, it will not lose your protection!"

The Earl of Perth was lost in thought, and Li Xiao's words finally brought him out of the quagmire before. Before, he thought about how to build relationships and how to guard against being attacked by political opponents, but there is no way out for him. The backer has fallen, and his network is all in the circle of the Orleans faction.

Everyone in this circle is frustrated. Everyone is miserable. Who doesn't want to get out of the quagmire, who doesn't want to protect themselves, but sincerely can't do it, who makes them doomed to be liquidated!

But Li Xiao told him that instead of mourning and grieving and waiting for death, you should take the initiative to do something to save yourself. At least you have to show your ability to let the new government see that you are still useful. Useful dogs and useless waste are two kinds of treatment, whether it is good or not. Although being a dog is more miserable, it is better than being a waste!

Of course, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that Li Xiao reminded him: If you are not excited to do something now, you will have nothing when the worst situation comes! In particular, Li Xiao is still hinting that if the two parties can reach an agreement to cooperate, Li Xiao will be doing business with him. If he is done well, even if he can't become the consul general of Pace, the money he earns will be enough for the elderly.

This one is what really touches the Earl of Perth. It allows him to show his ability to please the new government. One he is a little bit resistant to the other and he doesn't believe that his ability to show his ability can make the new government exalted.

But the temptation to make money and be able to provide him with material security is too great. If you can make money, even if you can't become a consul general, you can return to Paris to be a rich man, so you won't be impoverished!

So the Earl of Perth immediately straightened his face, and UU Read www.uukanshu.com asked seriously: "Mr. Diomede, do you have any suggestions?"

Finally, this **** Orleans faction finally listened, and Lebeuf was truly relieved. In his opinion, this matter has been half-successful. He believes that the Earl of Perth will definitely feel after listening to Li Xiao’s suggestion. Interested.

However, Li Xiao did not directly give advice, but asked: "Count, how is the current situation in Austria in your bureau?"

The Earl of Perth is not an impatient little boy, knowing that the cooperation provided by someone must be related to the situation in Austria, so he patiently replied: "Overall, it is very bad. This revolution has hit the Habsburg family hard... …But it’s limited to this. Given the progress of the Holy League and Wendyschgretz and Jeračić in Vienna, this revolution may not last long."

Li Xiao nodded slowly, and then asked: "Do you think a strong Austria is better for our country or a weak Austria is better for me?"

The Earl of Perth chuckled out: "This question is too simple. It must be the weaker the better. Unfortunately, the **** Russian has been supporting the Austrians..."
