"Hello Hermann," said Valentin, "I have a deal for you."374Please respect copyright.PENANAlTwNL1FuSb
"Hello Valentin, my old swindler," answered Hermann, while he was hugging him. "Doing deals is my business."374Please respect copyright.PENANAazWEQxfnw5
"I lost a half of my men, weapons and horses. You are good at making deals."374Please respect copyright.PENANAksxfAVUOsb
"I don't wonder," said Hermann. "But I won't give you money. You haven't paid for the last case."374Please respect copyright.PENANAIpaksDCR32
"Here's the deal, listen, when we get the money for the next campaign..."374Please respect copyright.PENANA2Nd9f31ZR8
"And where are you going to join with your ragamuffins?"374Please respect copyright.PENANAc6TWwHDNWx
"Isn't it some kind of job for the Moscow prince?"374Please respect copyright.PENANAZvhndMZRLq
"Yeah, right here their recruiting teams are running around," Hermann chuckled. "What do you need is to drag your ass to Moscow."374Please respect copyright.PENANAkLlvgM3BmH

Valentin spoke about disasters of his squad.374Please respect copyright.PENANA8TCWkM2P0w

"Wait a second! Are you talking about Irene Fireman?" Hermann looked worried.374Please respect copyright.PENANAtxcHghrGQm
"Are you familiar with her?"374Please respect copyright.PENANAxAlEppWF1B
"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.374Please respect copyright.PENANARewjQPE0gC
Maria-Cecilia, Hermann's wife, was dissatisfied with this. Because we boarded without payment.374Please respect copyright.PENANAYJygvCi1kI
"You are slackers!" she hourly said to us. "You must comply with my rules. My house. My rules!"374Please respect copyright.PENANAWmRzfrIxgz
She called Nicolas "a smug Breton bastard," even though he didn't deserve to be treated like that.374Please respect copyright.PENANAi0aPlCKHoK
She scolded me for thick eyebrows, I was very upset because of it.374Please respect copyright.PENANAc5HABX5LYd
