Chapter 22 Arrogant Rejection (Part 2)
Alexei's pupils contracted slightly, obviously Earl Vladimir's words stimulated him. Judging from this guy's tone and attitude, this guy made it clear that he didn't want to talk properly, or he just came to find fault.
This made Alexei's heart a little heavy, because he really didn't want another shit-stirring stick in Wallachia, especially he didn't want anyone from Russia to make trouble for him.
Over the years, in order to ensure that his reform experiment can be carried out at the wedding, he not only made a lot of compromises, but also spent a lot of money to buy these Russian vampires, just to let this guy be more honest and not cause him more trouble. For this, he and Li Xiao paid a lot of money. To be honest, he and Li Xiao have basically never received Wallachia bonus in the past two years.
And under the premise that they have been so tolerant, these vampires are still dishonest, and even worsened. Do you think Alexei can't be angry?
Count Vladimir's attitude really irritated Alexei, and made him think of a lot in an instant. Those painful memories filled his brain, and if he hadn't restrained enough on the spot, he might explode.
But even if he didn't explode, Alexei didn't give Earl Vladimir a good face. He replied calmly: "It seems that His Majesty doesn't evaluate Wallachia like that, but me. If I don't If I remember correctly, His Majesty just said that Wallachia is the most beautiful diamond in the Russian crown, and that my contribution has exceeded his expectations. Why, Earl, do you disagree with His Majesty's statement?"
Count Vladimir, who was crossing his legs, was stunned for a moment, because these were indeed Nicholas I's original words, and they hadn't been spoken for long.
It took a long time for this guy to force out a sentence: "Then I can't stand your extremely slack way of working! This is really a breach of His Majesty's trust!"
Well, Count Vladimir really has nothing to say, otherwise he can keep talking nonsense with negative trust?
This made Alexei very contemptuous in his heart, look at what skills you have, you can't come up with anything new even if you ask for trouble, you bloody nepotism, what else can you do besides drunkenness!
So he suddenly felt that it was a bit childish and ridiculous for him to be serious with Count Vladimir just now. Adults can't care about everything with little kids. Doesn't that mean that he has lowered himself to the level of kindergarten?
Alexei just gave Count Vladimir a blank look, and went directly to the topic: "Your Excellency, after arriving in Bucharest, work and life are going well, right? The most important duty of my governor is to let elites like you get acquainted. And get used to working and living in Bucharest, so that you can serve His Majesty wholeheartedly, so you can tell me about any difficulties, and I will try my best to help you solve them!"
Now it was Count Vladimir's turn to despise Alexei,
Just now, he raised his feelings towards Alexei a little bit, and felt that the other governor still had a bit of aura, so why did he just release a little bit of aura to scare the crap out of him.
I really don't know how this guy saw that Alexey was shitting, probably because he felt good about himself. But this is not important, because he said proudly: "I am prepared to endure hardships when I came to Wallachia, and I can't even endure a little bit of hardship, so how can I serve Your Majesty!"
These words made Alexei roll his eyes again, and now he began to doubt the IQ of this guy, because he heard someone said that many people in the royal family have blood problems, and all the children born are deformed or have brain holes Idiots, the most typical example is the Habsburg family.
As for whether there was someone in the Romanov family who didn't say it clearly, Alexei guessed that there was probably one. He didn't quite believe it before, but looking at the guy in front of him, he felt that there was still a possibility.
Alexei can't really care about fools, so he can only hint more clearly: "I appreciate your strong will and determination to share the worries of your majesty, count. You are indeed a role model for the young people of the empire. But think about it." To better serve His Majesty, you still have to protect your living conditions. As the governor, I am serving you outstanding talents. If you have any difficulties or requests, you can ask them!"
Did Count Vladimir understand this time? It should be said that he understands it. He is just out of his mind but not really stupid. If he still doesn’t understand this obvious hint, then he really can only play with those imbecile members of the Habsburg family. .
At this time, the thought in his mind was: "Have money to take? Oh, Wallachia is really rich! I just showed off a little bit and scared this idiot into pockets. How much money did I get?" To be so generous! No! I must grab this governor as soon as possible!"
This guy's brain circuit is really a bit unusual, but it's normal, because he has been fascinated by money, and only money is left in his mind, and he can't see anything else. What's more, he was used to domineering in St. Petersburg, and he didn't take Alexei seriously at all, so he was naturally unscrupulous!
So this guy said bluntly: "I can solve my personal difficulties by myself, so I won't bother you, Earl!"
A cold light flashed in Alexei's eyes. The other party's decisive refusal surprised him, and it also made him think a lot. Because as far as he knows, Count Vladimir is not a saint. He was famous for being extravagant when he was in St. Petersburg. With the little property and salary he inherited from Nicholas I, it is absolutely impossible to support such a luxurious life. Life.
So where does the money come from? I haven't heard of him borrowing money, so it's normal to have a little gray and black income. And now, the fox who is used to stealing fishy food actually says that he is only a vegetarian, who would believe that!
[Is it because you think you have too little money? 】
This idea was rejected by Alexei in an instant, because he didn't ask how much money to give at all! What's more, even if Count Vladimir found out about the past practice, the money is really a lot, not to mention that if you think the money is too little, you should bargain instead of categorically rejecting it like just now!
[So this guy made it clear that he was going to do something! 】
Alexei immediately analyzed Count Vladimir's thoughts to the point of accuracy, and naturally became wary of this guy.
So Alexey deliberately said with a smile on his face: "You can't say that, your difficulties are the difficulties of the governor's mansion, this is the duty of the governor, not to mention that I am willing to share your worries and solve your problems, am I not!"
