I'm playing whack-a-mole in Siberia

Chapter 228 Thanks to Super Duke Yurievsky

When he walked into the Yuriev Palace, George learned that Ekaterina frantically changed all the guards inside the Yuriev Palace to women, and even the cats that caught mice were female.

George knew that there was an all-female guard beside Catherine.

There's nothing we can do about it.

Ekaterina and her three sisters are all women, and Anna is also a woman. It is indeed inconvenient for men.

Although the guards arranged by the Tsar for the three Catherines were all Cossacks, Anna organized an all-female guard to be responsible for the personal security of the three Catherines.

The aesthetics of Ekaterina and Anna are online. The women of Ekaterina's guard are not only strong in ability, but also have certain requirements for appearance and figure.

Not to mention the Korean maid sent by Concubine Min. There was a girl who looked very much like Nana, and she instantly attracted George's attention.

Don't get me wrong, there is no other meaning, it's just appreciation.

However, George's appreciation had some special meaning in Yekaterina's eyes.

Haha, the men in the Romanov family are really not good at all!

George didn't know yet that this girl, also named Nana, was about to become his personal maid.

"Everything about Yuriev Palace is good, but it's too big and too deserted——"

Ekaterina obviously meant something.

George didn't say anything and went upstairs to take a shower and change clothes. He was too tired on the way.

Mikhail and Milyutin also knew that George needed to rest, so they sent George to Yuriev Palace and left.

So George woke up and found it was night time.

Nana, covered in white sand, huddled at George's feet.

As soon as George moved, Nana was awakened. She immediately jumped up and knelt on the floor beside George's bed, waiting for George's instructions.

Although the lights were not turned on in the bedroom, there was still light shining into the room through the white window screen. This should be the reflection of the snow.

The heating was fully turned on, and the room was as warm as spring. Nana's clothes were cover-up, which was more tempting than not wearing them at all. I don't know who studied how to wear them.

"are not you cold?"

George still adjusted his posture.

Pretty or not, it doesn't really matter, because the girls in Yuriev Palace are all pretty.

The key is this kind of softness that is completely obedient and allows you to take advantage of you. It can really stimulate men's desire to conquer.

Nana shook her head slightly, and her slender neck with a hint of down began to turn red. Her body must be too sensitive.

"How old are you?"

George is no saint.

Not even a beast.

"16--"

Nana’s voice is softer than a mosquito’s.

Okay, George doesn't care whether the age of 16 is already qualified to be a mother in the Far East.

It definitely wouldn’t work here in George anyway.

In the small living room on the second floor, Ekaterina was reading financial reports with Anna.

Anna is still Catherine's housekeeper, and Anna is also managing part of George's finances.

But Anna also serves as the president of the Siberian Bank, because the Siberian Bank itself was invested by George and Ekaterina.

"Business is not very good this year, and the money left is not as much as last year."

Ekaterina is not very happy. There are only two things that are important to her now.

One is to make money.

One is to hold a grandson.

In her spare time, Ekaterina would focus on the medical and educational undertakings in Vladivostok.

Well, by the way, let’s study food, design beautiful clothes and so on.

"The investment this year is too big. Factories are expanding, railways are being built, and banks have to lend money. However, there should be more input before the end of the year."

Privately, Anna is called the God of Wealth Grandma in Vladivostok by many people.

Anna has never been married and is the most trusted person of Catherine. Large expenditures on George's side require Anna's signature to take effect.

Ekaterina and George are making more and more money, and Anna alone will definitely not be able to manage it.

Anna has a professional financial team of more than 50 people to assist Anna in handling financial issues for Ekaterina and George.

This is only the private financial team of the Yuriev Palace, and does not include the accountants team of the Siberian Bank.

"George, you're awake—"

When Ekaterina saw George coming out, she immediately jumped up from the sofa.

Then seeing Nana walking as usual behind George, Ekaterina's expression turned ugly instantly.

Is this because I didn’t like it, or——

Either way, damn it!

Although Ekaterina is usually very kind to everyone, when it comes to George, Ekaterina immediately transforms into a female tyrannosaurus.

"I'm only 16, what are you doing?"

George was very dissatisfied with Ekaterina's arrangement. Yasan knew not to let Nicholas get involved in love affairs too early, and George should be more restrained.

It is said that young people do what they do when they are old. Many members of the Russian Empire's aristocracy were drained of their bodies by drinking and sex at a young age, and died in their twenties and thirties. George did not want to see tragedy befall him.

"What's wrong with being 16 years old? I was taken back to the Winter Palace by someone when I was 16 years old. Your eldest brother is 16 years old——"

Yekaterina opened her mouth to expose the Romanov family's background.

"I'm hungry--"

George knew how to deal with Catherine.

"Anna, pass the meal——"

Catherine showed off her empress dowager style and did not forget to establish George's prestige.

"Where are Olga and Xiaoye, why don't you come to meet their brother."

"Olga and Xiaoye are still in class."

Anna is elegant and calm, and is a good learning partner for Nana.

George sat down next to Catherine.

The sofa was spacious, and George was a little far away from Ekaterina.

Ekaterina didn't shy away and ran over directly to hold George's arm.

"I heard that you made a big splash in St. Petersburg and kicked the Dutch and British butts. Tell me about it." Ekaterina was not worried at all about the danger this would bring to George. All she could think about was My son smashed really hard.

"Nothing, I want to get a place from East India to grow something."

George made an understatement.

“East India coffee is good—”

Ekaterina was easily distracted by George.

"It's just kind of disgusting the way it's made."

"Is the coffee really made from cat excrement?"

"Seems to be."

"Ugh, the Dutch are so disgusting!"

Anna couldn't help but roll her eyes in a very unladylike way when she heard what the two of them were discussing.

In the 18th century, the Dutch began to grow coffee in East India and banned locals from picking it.

Locals accidentally discovered that East Indian civet cats like to eat coffee beans and will excrete them intact.

So the locals collected the feces of the coffee cats and made the famous cat poop coffee.

I won’t tell you whether it tastes good or not.

As for the source of the raw materials, let’s just say it’s disgusting or not.

Mikhail arrived at the right time, just in time for dinner.

Yuriev Palace is quite famous for its food. Mikhail was not polite and sat down at the dining table to chat while eating.

"Americans are really rich. Yakov helped us raise 1500 million US dollars from the United States, and there will be 1500 million more next year."

Mikhail and Shiv seem to have a good relationship.

This is normal. Hebrews are very good at dealing with people.

A lot of people working in the Siberian Bank were Hebrews because they were really good at lending money.

George subconsciously paid more attention to this issue.

In another time and space, the autonomous state of the Hebrews seemed to be right next to Amur.

This autonomous prefecture has not yet been established.

"Americans are bad. I don't like Americans."

Catherine had a bad opinion of Americans.

"The Americans asked for someone to monitor the use of the money, but I refused."

Anna also dislikes Americans.

"You are biased against Americans. In fact, I think Americans are not bad."

Mikhail couldn't help but defend Shiv.

"Misha, you have to pay attention, Americans are not as good as you think."

George reminded Mikhail to be careful not to get too close to Shiv.

George is not sure what Schiff's purpose is now.

But George can be sure that Schiff is so active in helping George raise funds for more than just the interest.

The interest that Schiff raised for George was not as high as a loan from a bank.

In other words, George can completely lend out the loans obtained from the United States through the Siberian Bank, and the profit will not be low.

"If they dare to harbor evil intentions, I will kill them all!"

Mikhail hates betrayal. In all the information leak cases in Vladivostok this year, all the people involved were sentenced to death, even if the circumstances were not serious.

"They are in the United States, how do you kill them?"

Ekaterina was dissatisfied with Mikhail's frequent shouting and killing, and it was better to prevent it in advance than to make up for it afterwards.

"What's so difficult about this? I can send people to the United States. Even if they hide in Whitehall, I can find them."

Mikhail is obsessed with violence.

George felt his heart move when he heard this.

It seems that this is not impossible.

George doesn't like violence either.

But sometimes we have to admit that violence is the best way to solve problems.

For example, the Sultan of Aceh.

To be honest, they are the orthodox Acehians, while Li Sha is purely wild.

So it is difficult to solve this problem through normal channels at this time.

So how can we solve this problem at the minimum cost?

Send people to kill all the other sultans, leaving only Lisha as the sultan, and the problem will be solved.

“How many churches are there in Vladivostok now?”

George took a different approach.

"That's too much."

Mikhail didn't know either, mainly because he had never paid attention to this issue before.

"In the future, there will be only one Orthodox church in Amur."

George was politically correct. The state religion of the Russian Empire was the Orthodox Church. Even if the Tsar came to Vladivostok, he would still praise George for his firm stance.

"this--"

Mikhail was surprised that George had never cared about this issue before.

"A lot of problems are caused by religion, and if you can't accept that, you can leave."

George knew too much what religion was about.

Don’t listen to those people in the 21st century who shout loudly and cannot fill their stomachs. What is most important?

Filling your stomach is the most important thing!

In Vladivostok, when municipal staff distribute supplies to new immigrants, anyone who dares to say "Thank God" will be immediately disqualified from the distribution.

"Thanks to Yurievsky Super Duke" is the correct answer.
