"Secretary-General Rastigne, when can we start?"

Right in Rastigne with André. While Milanovic was talking, the leader of the group of geologists, who had not spoken, opened his mouth to ask Rastigne.

"Secretary-General Rastigne, are these the experts from Paris?" Andre. Milanovic asked Rastigne as if he had just seen the group of geologists.

Rastigne nodded to Andrea. Milanovic replied: "That's right! They are the mineral survey experts specially appointed by His Majesty the Emperor to assist us in mineral exploration! ”

Andre. Milanovic showed a sudden expression after listening to Rastigne's introduction, and then with a smile on his face, he shook the hand of the team leader and said to him: "It's great that you guys can come!" ”

"Nothing!" The team leader still put on a very serious face, and he didn't look at Andre. Milanovic, instead, turned to Rastigne and asked: "Your Excellency, when are we going to start surveying!" ”

Rastigne glanced at the setting sun in the distance, then took out his pocket watch and looked at the time, and then responded to the team leader: "Mr. Gaston, it's getting late, I think it's better to wait until tomorrow to start work!" ”

Andre. Milanovic also agreed: "Teacher Gaston, what Secretary General Rastigne said is right, yes, let's wait for tomorrow!"

I've asked the back kitchen to prepare a dinner, so please come with me to the command post and wait a while! ”

"Major Andrei, I heard that you specially ordered your army kitchen to prepare this meal, I don't know if the situation is true!" Rastigne also asked André in a joking tone. Milanovic.

"Secretary General Rastigne, look at what you said! What's not deliberate! "Andrey. Milanovic said in a friendly tone, "Even if you don't come, we will have the same meal!"

After you came, all the soldiers, including me, have entrusted you with the blessing of adding a little more food tonight!

I want to thank you too! ”

Andre. Milanovic skillfully patted the ass of Secretary General Rastigne and the geologists, which made them feel particularly comfortable.

After all, there is not a single person who does not like to listen to flattery.

Rastigne smiled at Andrea. Milanovic responded: "That's good! Teacher Gaston and I, as well as all the graduating students (Rastigne is in this case, he himself is not a graduate of the École Polytechnique) must have a good taste of your army's craftsmanship! ”

"Trust me! We won't let you down! "Andrey. Milanovic assured Rastigne.

"Good!" Rastigne nodded at Andrea. Milanović said.

Rastigne and the geologists were taken by André. Milanovic was invited into the command post, and the group briefly drank a few glasses of aperitif, and then began to talk through the wine.

Half an hour later, Andrey. Milanović's guard entered the noisy command post, and he told Andrei. All Milanovic's meals are ready and just waiting for Andrei. Milanovic and others dined.

"Let the kitchen bring it all in!

"Andrey. Milanovic said a word to the guard.

"Aren't we going out to eat?" Gaston asked Andrei. Milanovic asked.

"Mr. Gaston, there's nothing wrong with eating out! It's just that there are no suitable tables and chairs outside, and it would be too much trouble to move out, and you have to take out all the candles! So it's better to eat in the command post, so it's more convenient! "Andrey. Milanovic replied to Gaston with a reason that was not a reason.

Gaston thought for a while, then nodded in agreement with Andrei. Milanovic's suggestion.

"Let the cook bring in all the dishes!" Andre. Milanovic stretched out his hand and gestured to the guard.

"Yes!" The guards quickly went out, and then arrived at the back kitchen, covered all the sumptuous dishes prepared in the back kitchen, and entered the command post.

Everyone at the command post couldn't help but swallow the food on the table at the command post, which contained part of Croatian food in addition to the foie gras, which is necessary for France.

Everyone suddenly felt that their taste buds were greatly increased, and they began to desperately destroy the food on the table.

Nearly an hour later, the geologists were lying down again as they had been yesterday. Milanovic also had a slightly drunken expression on his face, and he burped and asked Secretary General Rastigne: "Mr. Secretary-General, what are they going to do!" ”

Rastigne, who hadn't drunk much, looked at André with a blank face. Milanovic shook his head and said, "Just find a few bedrooms and put them in!" ”

"Yes!" Andre. Milanovic followed Rastigne's advice and ordered the soldiers to carry Gaston and the others to a tent where no one was staying.

And he himself wants to discuss with Rastigne a little bit about what has happened recently.

"It's okay over there at the Governor's Palace!"

"It's business as usual!"

"That's good! Namirabaugh. Where is Plenkovic now? "Andrey. Milanovic asked Rastigne.

"We only know that their entire expedition team has been moving along the river, and the rest don't know!" Rastigne spread his hands and helplessly said to André. Milanovic.

"Hey! Hope they go well! "Andrey. Milanovic sighed.

"Yes! I also hope they can go well! Rastigne chimed in.

Subsequently, Rastigne left André. Plenkovich's command post, alone found a tent to live in.

The next morning, Gaston waited for an early wake-up, and woke up his companion who was sleeping beside him: "Wake up! Wake up! ”

The man who was woken up by Gaston yawned and asked Gaston, "Teacher Gaston, what are you going to do!" ”

"Of course, it's to inspect the type of ore in the mine!" Gaston replied without thinking,

"But ......" the graduating student yawned again, and he pulled out his pocket watch to look at the time, and it was only 7 o'clock in the morning.

Seeing that the graduating students who were still early, they regained their lazy expressions and said to Gaston: "Teacher Gaston, it's still early!" We were able to take a break for a while! ”

Gaston replied with a solemn face: "We must finish it as soon as possible, and the sooner we can finish it, the sooner we can return!" ”

Hearing that the returning graduating students instantly came to their senses, he straightened up, got up and said to Gaston: "Teacher Gaston, then what are we waiting for!" ”

Gaston looked at the impatient student, shook his head subconsciously, and then left the tent in an orderly manner.

When Gaston stepped out of the tent, he noticed that there seemed to be no soldiers in sight in the entire camp, which made him wonder a little.

So, Gaston muttered quietly, "What the hell is going on?" ”

After a while, a group of soldiers ran up to Gaston, who hurriedly asked, "Where are your troops?" ”

The other party was stunned by Gaston's sudden questioning.

After a long while, he reacted and responded to Gaston: "This gentleman, our troops are now doing physical training a kilometer away!" ”

"Why are you running so far?" Gaston asked again.

"Because Major Andrei said that we can't disturb your rest, that's why we choose to train in a distant place!" The soldier replied to Gaston in a short voice.

Gaston was silent for a moment, then patted the soldier on the shoulder and said, "Please thank you Major Andrei for me!" ”

"I will definitely convey it on your behalf!" The soldier replied to Gaston.

The soldiers then left, and the graduates, who had slept in the same tent as Gaston, had also finished their work and walked out of the tent.

"Mr. Gaston, what the hell is going on?" The graduating student asked Gaston suspiciously.

"Leave this at that! Wake up the sleeping people right away, and we'll work together to identify the ore in the mine! Gaston said to the graduating students.

The graduating students obeyed Gaston's orders and quickly ran to wake up all the students who had not yet gotten up.

Twenty minutes later, all the students had arrived, and Gaston gave the order to enter the mine.

At 7:30 a.m., Andrey. When Milanovic brought back all the training teams, he found the camp extremely deserted.

So, Andrey. Milanovic ordered one of the soldiers to check on the situation inside the tent where Gaston was staying.

After a while, the soldiers who went to the tent came to report that Gaston and the others were not in the tent.

"Where will he be?" Andre. Milanovic muttered something in a low voice, and then suddenly remembered whether Gaston had already entered the mine,

Andre. Milanovic immediately sent someone to the mine to inquire about the situation, and after another half an hour, the person who sent the information told Andrei. Milanovic said Gaston and others had indeed penetrated deep into the mine.

Andre. Milanovic breathed a sigh of relief and immediately ordered his soldiers to start making breakfast for Gaston and the others.

Soon, breakfast was ready, Andrey. Milanovic then ordered his men to enter the mine and give breakfast to Gaston.

The men trotted into the mine, then trotted all the way back to the surface.

"Delivered?"

"It's already in their hands!"

Andre. Milanovic patted the soldier on the shoulder and said, "You did a great job!" ”

The soldier replied in a sonorous tone: "Thank you for the compliment!" Sir! ”

……

For the next few days, Gaston went out early and returned late, eager to check all the stones in the mine.

Eventually, Gaston came to the conclusion that the mine was a manganese mine.
