I'm playing whack-a-mole in Siberia

Chapter 50 What stupid thing did you do again?

"Do you know how the Americans built the Pacific Railway?" George tried to enlighten Nicholas.

Nicholas shook his head. His course had not yet touched upon the United States.

"The United States had no money when it built the Pacific Railway, so the U.S. government introduced private capital and used the management rights of the land on both sides of the railway to attract private investment. So the U.S. government spent almost no money to acquire the Pacific Railway." Life In the era of the explosion of knowledge in the 21st century, George's knowledge is broad enough, although it is not proficient, it is enough for chatting and bragging.

No wonder Witte proposed building the Trans-Siberian Railway.

This is probably what he had in mind.

"This is a great idea!" Nicholas was very excited and took George to find Asan.

"No, no, no, just go by yourself, and don't tell His Majesty that it was me who said it." George no longer wanted to be in the limelight, and he would honestly be his duke.

After Nicholas takes power, it will not be too late for George to jump out.

Now George is performing too well, which is not a good thing.

"Why?" Nicholas looked puzzled.

George said nothing and looked at Nicholas with calm and deep eyes.

Nicholas gave George a big hug: "George, you are so miserable——"

George was dumbfounded.

Last time Nicholas thought that the academicians of the Academy of Sciences were living a miserable life, so George let Nicholas see what true misery was.

Now Nicholas actually thinks that George, the super duke, is living a miserable life——

It seems that Nicholas has no idea about the hard life.

Of course this varies from person to person.

For George, life is still okay now.

But in Nicholas's view, it's almost as good as if George doesn't say that his father is dead and his mother is married now.

If this damn thing doesn't complain, what does it mean?

But no matter what, George couldn't complain in front of Nicholas.

So George laughed heartlessly: "It seems I need to let you know what it means to complain."

"Go on your own, I'm not going -" Nicholas ran away in a flash and couldn't wait to share his good idea with Ya San.

George didn't care, Shi Shiran strolled out of the Gatchina Palace and found Andrei wandering around like an ant on a hot pot.

"Your Highness is going to ride a dog sled and take away the wealth——" In the middle of winter, Andrei was sweating profusely. He couldn't stop the little boy, and he didn't dare to break into the Gatchina Palace to find George. He could only Watching Georgi take away Wangcai.

"Where is the person?" George broke through the defense in a second.

"I don't know, His Highness doesn't allow us to follow." Andre was about to cry. Only then did George notice Alfred who looked indifferent next to him.

"How's our business going?" Alfred had already regarded smokeless gunpowder as his and George's business.

"Haha——" George sneered, what the hell are you thinking about?

Whether George goes to the United States or Siberia, he will need a large amount of start-up capital.

Smokeless gunpowder was the first pot of gold that George prepared for himself. It was enough to have Nicholas as an amulet. Why did he need Alfred?
  No work, just sharing the money?
  George still wants to do this kind of business.

"Where did Georgi go?" George knew that no matter where Georgi went, there would be guards around him.

"First tell me how our business is going." Alfred looked at George with dissatisfaction, probably thinking that George was going to eat alone.

"Who told you that's our business? Then it's His Majesty's business!" George poured a bucket of cold water on his head and face, and Alfred's expression was even worse than eating a squid. "Tell me, where did Georgi go?" George grabbed Alfred's collar, his eyes red.

"Cough - cough - Your Highness went to the river, let go quickly, you are going to strangle me -" Alfred's hand pulled hard, but George's hand did not move at all.

This is another guy whose body has been drained by wine and sex.

George didn't bother with Alfred, he just grabbed a horse, got on it and ran towards the river.

St. Petersburg has a developed water system with criss-crossing rivers. It is called the "Venice of the North". There are several rivers around Gatchina Palace. George went to the nearest one first.

Not far away, George saw Georgi riding back in dismay, surrounded by a large group of guards.

"Where's Wangcai?" George had a premonition that something was wrong.

"Your dog is crazy. When I chased it, it didn't move at all. Just when I was about to whip it, it actually threw me off the sled and ran away. I must find it and stew it-" Georgi looked violent, this was his true character.

Georgi's well-behaved appearance is mostly just an act.

Even George's uncle Georgie dared to tease him, and he had no patience for other Georgies.

Don’t think that the Tsar was merciful because he only executed a dozen people a year.

This is only data from the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Empire. Many people who were executed without trial were not included in the statistics at all.

For example, those deserters who were beaten to death by the cane array.

To Russia's vested interests, the Tsar was a loving father.

To the people of the countries invaded by Russia, the Tsar was a Caesar.

The word Tsar is originally the transliteration of Russian Caesar.

"Find it for me, we'll look for it separately!" George didn't care about arguing with Georgi, he wanted to find Wangcai first.

Although the Caucasian dog's cold resistance is relatively strong, it is also limited.

The lowest temperature in St. Petersburg at night has exceeded minus 20 degrees, and Wangcai can't stand it in the wild.

George will definitely not be able to control the guards around Georgi.

The guards around George, including Andre, did not disperse to look for Wangcai after George gave the order.

"Why are you still standing there?" George was furious.

"We might as well go home first and see if Wangcai has gone home on his own -" Andre was embarrassed. Wangcai was very important, but George was even more important.

The mission of Andre and the guards is to protect George. They cannot ignore George's safety just because they are rich.

"It's just a dog, that's all?" Georgi didn't expect George's reaction to be so big.

In front of Georgi and Nicholas, George has always been calm and indifferent, as if he doesn't care about anything, and regards money as dirt.

After hearing that Georgi was thrown off the sled by Wangcai, George didn't even ask a question. He focused on finding Wangcai, which made Georgi very hurt.

George ignored Georgi, rode back to the manor, and mobilized more people to find Wangcai.

"George -" Georgi called George several times, but George didn't even look back and returned to Gatchina Palace angrily.

"Where's George?" Nicholas smiled happily, probably because he got praise from Ya San.

Georgi felt guilty and did not dare to answer.

"What stupid thing did you do again?" Nicholas had no choice but to do anything to this younger brother.
