After looking at the current situation in Russia, Eder decided that a revolution in Russia was inevitable. Even if it is not a February eruption, it will erupt at other times, and according to his estimates, Russia will not drag on for half a year.

As for the emergence of the Red Empire, Eder really has no way to do it now. He could not have killed Ulyanov, who was still in Switzerland, because of this, and without him, there would have been leaders of other red parties. However, in this case, the development of Soviet Russia itself will not have the ability to predict the general trend of the future, and this will also affect the general environment of Europe. At that time, I can only rely on the political ability I have cultivated over the years to play with those shrewd politicians. It's still too difficult for Eder to come.

However, Eder felt that the current chaos in the Russian government was also an opportunity for Romania, so he thought that he could send someone to think of a solution. To this end, Eder personally issued orders to Milok and Calust to keep an eye on their neighbors to the east.

At this time, many people in Russia also felt the coming of this storm, and in Kherson, which is located at the mouth of the Dnieper River on the shore of the Black Sea, there were people who responded quickly.

Inside the dock in Kherson, the head of customs, Sdorf, is walking in the storage area of the pier with two of his own guests.

"Here is a grain warehouse, where the military rations sent to Kyiv are placed, and there are only 20,000 tons of grain in a small quantity."

Commissioner Stoff pointed to the area behind the grain storehouse and continued to introduce his guests. "Gentlemen, please take note, we are about to arrive at the open storage area, which is basically full of ore and other raw materials you need."

Hearing Stof's words, the guests finally reacted. "Do you have any specific data?"

Director Sdorf said this very clearly. "There are currently 234,000 tonnes of iron ore and 187,000 tonnes of coal stored in the open warehouse, which are all good anthracite coal shipped from Donetsk and can definitely be sold at a good price."

"Then let's go check it out."

The group arrived at the open storage yard, and Commissioner Sdorf handed a shovel to his guests. "You can take a look."

"You go check it out."

The one who seemed to be the leader of the two guests said to the other. "You go for a walk."

So the shovel of Commissioner Stouff was taken by him to the guest, and he did not care whether it was a polite remark or not.

Looking at the slightly embarrassed face of Commissioner Sdorf, the guest who accompanied him spoke. "It's too big a business this time, and it's better to check it out more to reassure us all. You're right, Commissioner Stouff. ”

Thinking of the background of these people, and the officials of the city, it is very likely that they will need the help of the other party at that time. Commissioner Stove was also smiling and chatting with the guest in front of him. "You're right, this business is indeed too big, we need to wait and be cautious."

For Commissioner Stove to be treated like this, of course, it is not an ordinary guest, this is a purchasing merchant from Romania. After the outbreak of World War I, because the Russian railways could not meet the domestic demand at all, the traditional inland waterway shipping was also expanded for a while. The city of Kherson, which is the mouth of the Dnieper River, has become a favorite place for these businessmen, because it is here that they can basically buy the supplies that Romania needs.

Swimming upriver to Kiev, Russia's largest Donetsk coalfield is not far from the Dnieper River, which can be transported by inland waterways. So there were a number of daring Romanian merchants who traded with these Russian officials, but this time in much larger quantities than before.

The guest with the shovel turned around and then turned back and said. "I've seen it's all anthracite, and the iron ore is good, it's all iron-rich ore."

Hearing their own reply, the two people who were waiting smiled, especially Commissioner Sdorf, who felt that they had let go of the burden in their hearts. Obviously, selling the goods at the dock is definitely not his idea alone, and other officials in Kherson, and even those on the upper floor, need to do a bit to sell them smoothly. And the buyer is not an ordinary person, so there are no ordinary people who dare to do this business.

Now that the transaction of goods in the tens of millions of lei is at stake, both sides should have some concerns. After seeing the goods, the two sides are now left with only the payment method, and the two sides have not yet negotiated.

"Commissioner Stoff, according to the way we made the deal, I will pay you 20% in two days."

Stoph, who had been smiling all the time, shook his head when he heard his client's words. "Bileyton, this time you need to pay at least 40% of the money first, and it must be a non-belligerent currency."

Commissioner Sdorf's words made the buyer, named Billyton, ask a little dissatisfied. "We've always traded like this, why should we ask for it this time, it's not in accordance with the rules."

In response to Billyton's displeasure, Commissioner Stove explained. "The money is not for me, and it has to be given to the boss above. Because the money is needed now, 40% must be delivered this time, which is also the bottom line. ”

The words of Commissioner Sdorf made the two Romanian 'businessmen' who bought the supplies also look at each other, and the two who could not make a decision directly had to talk to Commissioner Sdorf. "We need to report this to the country."

Knowing the plight of the two, Stouff said generously. "It's okay, there is a telegraph room in Kherson, you can use it right away."

That night, Biliton and his wife sent information about Kherson to Romania, and the two received a message the next morning that they could agree to such a payment, but they needed to pay attention to the safety of the goods. In fact, the Russian Black Sea Navy is now dying of starvation, but because of the frequent smuggling by sea between Russia and Russia, the Russian Black Sea Fleet can still obtain some oil and water, and can barely ensure the basic operation of the Black Sea Fleet. Therefore, the officers and men of the Black Sea Fleet will not make such an idea of cutting off their own extra money.

So, after receiving the telegram, Billetton agreed to the request of Commissioner Sdorf. This made Steop happy, and for the current situation in Russia, Storf felt a dangerous aura, and many officials felt it. Therefore, many people participated in this sale of materials, but Commissioner Sdorf, who was the substitute, made the most profit from this transaction, which can be regarded as a one-time exchange of his position for money.

Of course, there are more than a few smart people in Russia, and many officials have already felt the breath that appeared in 1905. However, at that time, there were still Britain and France that could provide assistance to Russia to keep the government running, and now Russia can only rely on itself, and many incumbent officials feel that this is the last chance to make money, so Kherson is only the tip of the iceberg for Russia. What's more, he bought all the materials he managed, and others made a profit, and then burned down the storage place, and disappeared without a trace.
