"Hello Hermann," said Valentin, "I have a deal for you."364Please respect copyright.PENANA6GD4j9BBOL
"Hello Valentin, my old swindler," answered Hermann, while he was hugging him. "Doing deals is my business."364Please respect copyright.PENANAiCBwicPA2W
"I lost a half of my men, weapons and horses. You are good at making deals."364Please respect copyright.PENANAg2lug3YWVf
"I don't wonder," said Hermann. "But I won't give you money. You haven't paid for the last case."364Please respect copyright.PENANAF9xwRfE7zs
"Here's the deal, listen, when we get the money for the next campaign..."364Please respect copyright.PENANAdRLMsqLGI6
"And where are you going to join with your ragamuffins?"364Please respect copyright.PENANAiijPB13y2l
"Isn't it some kind of job for the Moscow prince?"364Please respect copyright.PENANAvqd1szeF9T
"Yeah, right here their recruiting teams are running around," Hermann chuckled. "What do you need is to drag your ass to Moscow."364Please respect copyright.PENANAtmQ3R7Dknr

"Wait a second! Are you talking about Irene Fireman?" Hermann looked worried.364Please respect copyright.PENANAdpQEUhcerG
"Are you familiar with her?"364Please respect copyright.PENANAgD9wY4rAem
"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.364Please respect copyright.PENANAJ43eRXuiW1
Maria-Cecilia, Hermann's wife, was dissatisfied with this. Because we boarded without payment.364Please respect copyright.PENANAeWd3xu6clN
"You are slackers!" she hourly said to us. "You must comply with my rules. My house. My rules!"364Please respect copyright.PENANAoqjP3SpH2N
She called Nicolas "a smug Breton bastard," even though he didn't deserve to be treated like that.364Please respect copyright.PENANAWrqnvmSwO3
She scolded me for thick eyebrows, I was very upset because of it.364Please respect copyright.PENANAAsqJsJmNDv
