Father Mavie

Chapter 337 Celebration Dinner (Please Subscribe!!!)
At 7:30 in the evening, Ma Wei took Junia out of the church and came to the gate of the Kremlin, followed by Levin, Daniel and ...
Dino.

At the beginning, Mavi didn't intend to let Dino attend this dinner, but he asked repeatedly, and the reason was very good. The church will expand its business in the future, so how can we do it without enough contacts?
Although the brand of the Church of Truth is already prominent enough, in certain matters, Dino still thinks it is right to get to know more officials and generals.

"I don't want to get any benefits from them, but I'm afraid they will embarrass us!" After the guards checked their identities, Dino followed Ma Wei and walked into the Kremlin, saying confidently: "Business , Many problems are in the gray area where it can be operated but cannot be operated. For example, when I opened a winery, people insisted that my hygiene problems were not up to standard, and the wine produced did not meet the food safety requirements. What can you do about this kind of thing? ?”

"Your thoughts are still stuck in the time when you were a grocery merchant." Ma Wei said: "The Church of Truth has developed to this day, and it has received Katerina's support. Didn't she grant you a special pass? Take With it, no one dares to embarrass you."

"That's what I said, but that special pass was approved for me alone. When the church runs its business in the future, I might encounter some embarrassment."

Levin snorted and said, "Who dares! Your worries are completely unnecessary. If Katerina can sit on the throne, then the Church of Truth will be the state religion. Who would dare to embarrass the state religion?"

"What are you two talking about?" Ma Wei suddenly stopped and turned to look at them: "Even if it is a church business, it must comply with legal standards. It doesn't mean that we, as the state church, don't care about legal provisions and rules! The church can do business, but the quality of the products produced must pass the standard, and the price must be low to meet the basic needs of the people, and profits must be ranked after these two! Do you understand?"

"Understood." Levin muttered, "I mean we won't be embarrassed, and I didn't say we want to be unscrupulous businessmen."

Hearing Ma Wei's words, Dino didn't say a word. Of course, he knew that it was very important to produce products that passed the quality standards, but products with too good quality would not be damaged for decades, and if customers didn't buy them again, how could the manufacturer maintain it? How about going down?
Of course, he didn't dare to say this, because he knew in his heart that if he told Ma Wei about this, Ma Wei would be furious.

In the final analysis, Dino still thinks about profiting for the church, while Mavi thinks about
Not just to make money.

Walking through the long and narrow courtyard, Ma Weiji came to the Grand Kremlin, which is the core area of ​​the Kremlin, similar to the Winter Palace and Wangyou Palace, and is one of the most important buildings in the Kremlin area. Katerina's residence.

The houses in the Kremlin were severely damaged, and after repairs, they barely reached a usable standard. Today's dinner was held in the palace where Katerina lived.

Under the night, the Grand Kremlin was resplendent and glittering with lights, countless waiters and maids passed through the corridors, and Katerina's personal maid, Marussa, was waiting at the door.

"Father Mawei, His Highness has been waiting for you for a long time, please follow me."

Marusa raised the corner of her skirt, tapped the ground with her right toe, and after she saluted gracefully, she led the Mavics through the labyrinth-like palace. The luxury and solemnity here was suffocating. It is covered with gold, and the tall arched dome is carved with exquisite patterns. Even after being looted and destroyed, it still shows the former glory of the Romanov Kingdom.

Levin looked at an empty round platform and said, "The treasures that can be placed here must be priceless."

"If you like it, His Highness can give you one as a gift in the future." Marussia smiled softly, "These are the things that the Kremlin lacks most."

"Okay, okay, if Her Royal Highness Katerina is willing to send me."

In the subtle look of Ma Wei's squinting eyes, Levin's voice faded: "Forget it, I still don't want it."

Marusa always kept an elegant smile on her face. She walked to a gate, pushed open the small door next to it, signaled Ma Wei and others to stay outside, and walked in by herself, facing the officials gathered in the hall, The generals bowed deeply and said, "Church of Truth, Mavi Enders has arrived."

The hall was quickly quiet, and the waiters standing on both sides of the door, one on the left and one on the right, stepped forward and opened the heavy front door.

squeak
The door opened slowly, and Mavi had only enjoyed such a grand occasion three years ago, when he returned to the Kingdom of Windsor and was summoned by King Rhodes IV.

At that time, he was just an ordinary naval lieutenant, but now.
Has become a veritable big man.

Just one name is enough to silence those high-ranking officials and generals in the hall.

Ma Wei took Junia's little hand, raised her foot and stepped into the hall. Under the gaze of countless eyes, she pressed her right hand to her chest and nodded slightly: "Praise the goddess."

The atmosphere in the hall was silent, and no one spoke. Dino and Levin seemed a little nervous, as if they had never experienced such a situation. On the contrary, Daniel yawned, looking indifferent.

"Father Marvie."

Among the crowd, Katerina, who was wearing a dark blue dress and a diamond necklace, put down her wine glass and walked over: "Thank you for accepting my invitation to attend today's dinner."

"Thank you very much." Mavi responded.

Immediately after Katerina made her statement, deafening applause resounded in the hall, the silent and oppressive atmosphere disappeared, smiles appeared on the faces of officials and generals, gentle music played, and the celebration banquet continued.

"Come with me, and I'll introduce you to these officials," Katerina whispered.

Following Katerina, Mawei and the others saw the fifth-rank minister in charge of finance, Senator Sadov, the fifth-rank minister in charge of military affairs, Senator Maynard, and various officials including Lermontov in charge of civil affairs. level officials.

Because of the "Official Rank List" promulgated by Peter the Great, the officials of the Romanov Kingdom have their own special grades, from grades one to fourteen, and are divided into three categories: military, civilian, and court. bureaucratic system.

The successor Paul I continued this tradition, as did Katerina.

Like Bodlinov, he belongs to the rank of captain, which is the same level as the ninth-rank honorary councilor. Because he is a guard, he belongs to the court position and directly obeys Katerina.

Looking at these gorgeously dressed officials in beaver fur coats, Ma Wei didn't smile at all, but just nodded politely as a greeting.

These officials seemed to be unaware of Ma Wei's indifference, with smiles all over their faces, and their words were full of respect, and their mouths were full of respectful words unique to the Pope.

"I know what you're thinking."

As she walked to the next official, Katerina said softly, "Do you feel in your heart that there is no difference between me and Paul I?"

"."

"It's understandable for you to think so, because I currently need the help of these officials, so I can only tolerate them temporarily." Katerina said: "Although I am the Grand Duke of Moscow, this is just a false name. If I can't give these officials The substantial benefits of officials, why should they follow me? My father's behest is only valid for those generals who followed him in the Southern and Northern Wars, and has no effect on these civil servants who are soaking in money. "

"I believe that you are not that kind of person, Your Highness," Ma Wei said.

"Look, Father, sooner or later, I will use the strongest means to get rid of the shortcomings of the Romanov Kingdom and bring this country back to its peak."

As she spoke, Katerina raised her glass with a smile, and said to a bearded official who came: "O'Hare, this is Father Mavi, Father, this is Senate Secretary O'Hare."

"Your Highness, Father." O'Hare with a mustache imitated Ma Wei's movements, pressed his palms on his chest, and performed a prayer ceremony of the Church of Truth. I believe that under the leadership of Your Highness and Father, the Romanov Kingdom will surely usher in its own era."

After a brief conversation, O'Hare turned and left. The smile on Katerina's face disappeared, and she looked at Makarov, Goffman and others not far away: "Come here."

Makarov gulped down the spirit in his glass, strode forward, saluted Katerina, but ignored Ma Wei, obviously Ma Wei's refusal to raise his glass to launch an armed coup d'etat caused his dissatisfaction.

The sons of military noble families such as Goffman and Ruolukin didn't have much resentment towards Ma Wei, and greeted him very politely.

Seeing Makarov's impolite behavior, Katerina frowned slightly: "Makarov, have you forgotten what I told you before?"

The corner of his mouth pursed, Makarov took a deep breath, nodded to Mavi, and still did not use the honorific: "Hi, Father."

"Your Excellency is really a general loyal to the royal family. That's great. With your help, Her Highness Katerina will definitely achieve something." Mavi said with a smile.

"Hmph!" Makarov still didn't have a good face.

Onufri and Ralph, who had been saved by Edward, wanted to persuade them, but they didn't know where to stand, so they could only calm down and worry.

"I am here this time to clear up your misunderstandings about me." Ma Wei said, "I have brought a complete action plan, but these matters are confidential and can only be told to my absolutely loyal companions, Katie After the banquet of Her Highness Linna, please prepare a quiet room."

"Okay." Katerina nodded, and glanced at Makarov again: "You are hostile to Father Mawei, you are hostile to me. You have to distinguish the situation clearly, Makarov."

Makarov's complexion changed, he hesitated for a while, picked up a bottle of spirits from the passing waiter's tray, and said to Ma Wei: "As long as the plan you come up with can help His Highness ascend the throne and realize His Majesty Peter's will, let I can do whatever I want to do first.”

After finishing speaking, Makarov raised his head and poured a bottle full of spirits into his stomach in front of Mavi, which drew applause from the surrounding generals.

To be honest, Mavi didn't dislike people like Makarov. Although he was straightforward, he didn't have any dirty and hidden thoughts. Compared with dirty politicians, he was definitely a good person.

When he was serving in the Royal Navy, most of the sailors on board had Makarov's cheerful personality.

"Drinking will make me lose my judgment, so I have quit drinking." Ma Wei said: "I don't think Your Excellency wants me to drink bad things, so I will save this bottle of wine until the day of victory."

"No problem!" Makarov agreed without hesitation.

At 10 o'clock, the banquet was over, the officials left the Kremlin drunk, the generals went out and circled and came back, and Katerina took them upstairs to the Georgiev Hall, here.
Ma Wei and the others have been waiting for a long time.

"Everyone."

Ma Wei looked serious, glanced at the faces of Onufri, Raffle and other generals standing on both sides of the hall, and said in a deep voice:
"Although we lost an opportunity, but the same, there are better opportunities waiting for us!"

"Next, our Church of Truth will help Her Highness Katerina to overthrow the corrupt old era and let the truth shine brightly."

"Shine the Romanovs!"
