"Mr. Pobonov, what wind is blowing you?"

In the mayor's office, Mayor Petronovich greeted Pobonov warmly.

Petronovich was also fed with money by Poponov, so it was also appropriate to say hello in advance to his own owner.

Poponov responded with a smile in the face of Mayor Petrovichi's warm greeting, of course, holding back his impatience. "Of course, it's been a long time since I've seen His Excellency the Mayor, and we haven't been together for half a month. So this time I'm uninvited, just don't blame me for being too reckless. ”

Hearing Poponov's words, Petronovich only listened, but he knew that this Poponov would rarely come to his government department. There must be something to look for him this time, but Petronovich is not in a hurry, he knows a lot of news, and it all depends on what Poponov wants.

Petronovich, as the mayor of St. Petersburg, is of course better informed than others, and this is what Poponov needs.

After the two chatted for a while, it was Poponov who was the first to speak. "Mayor Petronovich, I'm here this time to find out. I heard that St. Petersburg sent an envoy, but I don't know if this news is true. ”

"It's true." Mayor Petrovich said secretly, and sure enough, he continued. "And I know the envoy too."

Seeing that Petronovich sold the guanzi, Poponov also talked about it very interestingly. "I don't know if Your Excellency the Mayor can introduce one or two."

"It's easy."

Petronovich began to speak. It turned out that the new Minister of Finance, Mikhail Tereshchenko, had proposed to send special envoys to various local governments to supervise the collection of finances under the financial constraints of the Provisional Government.

At present, because the provisional government has only recently been formed, the local governments lack a sense of fear of the current central government. There have been some reservations in the implementation of the new policies, but the main reason is that the local governments are delaying the payment of taxes for various reasons, which makes it difficult for the Provisional Government, which bears most of the country's financial burden. And the farther away from St. Peter, the worse the delay.

So after the proposal of Finance Minister Mikhail Tereshchenko, Lvov, as the head of government, was struck by the head of government, and he quickly agreed to the proposal of the Minister of Finance. However, he also added that every special envoy sent can punish the criminal incidents he sees, as long as it is not higher than the leader at or above the city level, the special envoy can deal with it himself, and the most important thing is that the special envoy can secretly mobilize the garrison to help him. Each envoy had an order written by Alexander Guchkov, the head of the Navy and Army, which allowed each envoy to mobilize no more than one regiment. In this way, each envoy becomes a big man who can pry the place.

And the envoy sent to the Caucasus is an old acquaintance of Mayor Petronovich, so the mayor can confidently say that it is simple.

"The new envoy's name is Serov, and he and I used to be neighbors, we grew up together, and even the university we chose was St. Petersburg University. It wasn't until I was out of office that I had a lot less contact, but this time I don't know why Spolov was a special envoy, he was not a member of the Constitutional Democratic Party. ”

Hearing what Mayor Petronovich said, Poponov stepped forward and asked in a whisper. "I don't know what His Excellency the Special Envoy Serov likes, so I can prepare so that the Special Envoy can return satisfied."

Hearing Poponov's words, Petronovich said casually. "Serov loves beautiful women, especially blondes with prominent figures. I know this kid too well, and he's good at it. ”

Having received the hobby of the envoy Serov from the mayor of Petrovich, Pobonov immediately mobilized his abilities and went everywhere to find blonde beauties with outstanding figures. But not to mention, he really found a few quite good blonde beauties, one of which was a blonde beauty named Valya who was the most satisfying to Poponov.

This Valya has natural wavy blonde hair, big bright eyes that seem to be able to speak, rich lips showing a charming true color, and snow-white long legs and a small waist, making the S-shaped figure quite prominent. And he is also a student at Kyiv University, and only came to Baku last year for work reasons. Pobonov spent a lot of money to get this stunner, because this Valya is still perfect. If he hadn't prepared to send it to Envoy Serov, he would have wanted to get some money himself.

Of course, in addition to beautiful women, famous wines of all tastes, as well as banknotes were prepared for this Serov envoy.

Thanks to the Russian roads, the Serov envoy waited until Pobonov was ready for a week before arriving in Baku. As the most important economic city in the Caucasus, Baku and the Russian government also have their own unique status, so the second stop of Serov's envoy is Baku.

"Serov didn't expect it to be you, and now you're an envoy."

His Excellency Mayor Peterovich greeted the envoy with officials and dignitaries. The Serov envoy was a small man, and he smiled easily, and it didn't look like he was looking for trouble. Pobonov also mingled in the welcoming crowd, observing the Serov envoy.

"Don't say that, don't you know me, it's all because my family fought for me for this position, otherwise I wouldn't have come here."

Serov said to Mayor Petronovichi with a shy smile.

After a brief conversation between the two, Mayor Petronovich introduced the main officials and leading figures of Baku to Serov. Pobonov, as a figure with a face in Baku, also had a face-to-face with Serov. However, Poponov always felt that the Serov envoy looked at him with a bit of amusement, and he had a feeling that he couldn't explain it.

After introducing others to Serov, Mayor Petrovich got into a carriage with Serov. In the car, he asked. "How are you doing with the two Honorable Nikolai?"

Serov pulled his bow tie and said to Mayor Petronovich with a smile: "Don't you know me, what can I talk to with two big people, even the main figures of the Provisional Government have nothing to do with these two." ”

The two were talking about the Caucasian governor being Grand Duke Nikolai Nikolayevich and the military commander being General Nikolai Yudenich, both of whom were influential figures in Russia. Therefore, even Serov, as the envoy of the Chincha, did not dare to make the slightest move in front of him.

Serov, apparently, did not want to talk about this topic, and he said it in a different way. "I heard that there is a businessman named Poponov in Baku, who is very capable."

Serov said something, but Mayor Petronovich was unmoved, as if he did not know Poponov in his mouth. "There is such a person, why do you want to meet him?"

Serov spoke generously. "I'll be sure to meet this interesting businessman another day."

Poponov, who was still following behind, didn't know that this time he was really being remembered. ()
