Chapter 514 Rich people are arrogant


Chapter 514 Rich people are violent

Not all the so-called democrats engaged in anti-Russian activities in the UK are members of the Social Democratic Labor Party. Some of them are not even Russians and have never been to Russia.

Asquith was a real dog. After receiving the order from Buckingham Palace, he did not order the arrest of the Socialist Workers immediately, but gave the order a day later.

This day was enough for many Socialist Workers to escape from the UK.

However, escaping from Britain does not mean running away. When the Russian Empire made up its mind, the whole of Europe was no longer safe.

When Alexander went to Asquith, he submitted a list to Asquith. There were 23 people on the list, all of whom were social workers who were openly active in the UK and British who provided direct help to the social workers.

Asquith agreed to arrest the Socialist Workers, but did not agree to arrest the British who provided help to the Socialist Workers' Party because the concept was too general. If Alexander's request was completely followed, Asquith would not be able to do it. It will set you on fire.

In April this year, Asquith bought a crudely made Russian matryoshka doll auctioned by the Social Democratic Labor Party for 35 pounds at a charity dinner.

According to this logic, Asquith should also be arrested.

“I believe that you spend money to buy them out of your love for traditional Russian handicrafts, but your 35 pounds is too little and does not suit your status as Prime Minister; and what you bought This matryoshka doll is so crudely made that it is not even worth a ruble in St. Petersburg. If you want to buy it next time, I recommend you to go to the Yuriev Palace, because the products produced by the Yuriev Palace must be high-quality products.”


Alexander is George's good brother, and he did not forget to help George advertise at this time.

"Yuriyev Palace" has now become a brand, and its products include but are not limited to: clothing, accessories, cosmetics, health care products, handicrafts and so on.

The handicrafts alone include: matryoshka dolls, embroidery, wood carvings, pottery, porcelain, paintings, amber, etc.

"British officials are not as wealthy as your Russian Grand Duke!"

Asquith was secretly shocked. He did not expect that the Russian intelligence work was so detailed.

Few people pay attention to the intelligence capabilities of the Russian Empire. In most people's minds, the Russians are arrogant and rough and cannot do such delicate work as intelligence.

After joining the workforce, Witte's first mission was to pick up rapes overseas.

The operations of the Russian secret police are not limited to Russia. They have intelligence branches all over Europe. The information processing center in St. Petersburg collects hundreds of pieces of intelligence every day.

The reason why Vladivostok products sell well all over the world has a lot to do with Amur's powerful money offensive. Asquith was elected prime minister and also received support from Amur's funds. The Bank of Siberia has opened a branch in London.

“The Russian Grand Duke did not spend his money on overthrowing the British Empire!”

Alexander exposed the hypocrisy of the British face to face.

While Alexander urged Asquith to act, Damien Bardan and Henry Campbell boarded a ship in London Harbor to seek refuge in France.

Damian Bardan is a Polish-born Hebrew and a core member of the Social Democratic Labor Party. Before the First State Duma was dissolved, Damian was responsible for fundraising for the Social Democratic Labor Party in the UK. Is the most active social worker in Britain.

Henry Campbell came from the most famous Argyll family in the UK. He had a very good relationship with Damian. Campbell lent Damian the headquarters of the Social Democratic Labor Party in London for free.

“I’m sorry, my friend, I caused you trouble.”

Damian fled in a hurry, carrying only a suitcase. He and Campbell planned to go to Switzerland via France, where they would wait for the storm to subside before returning to London.

"Don't say that, just think of us as a trip. I have long wanted to go skiing in Switzerland."

Campbell was in a very relaxed mood and did not take the Russian Empire's pursuit to heart at all. Above——

In Campbell’s view, this is not a hunt at all, but just political persecution.

“Can I ski in the summer?”

Damian forced a smile. After Poland was partitioned, Damian was a Russian. It cannot be said that skiing is not attractive to Russians, but going to Switzerland for skiing is also a reverse operation.

"Of course - oh, sorry, I forgot you were Russian."

Campbell was belatedly aware.

“I am not a Russian, I am a Polish.”

Damian said seriously, Poland has been subjugated for 100 years, and the Poles who are committed to restoring the country have never given up.

The three countries divided Poland. Russia occupied about 62% of the original Polish territory, a total of more than 460,000 square kilometers; Prussia occupied about 20%, a total of about 141,100 square kilometers; Austria occupied about 18%, a total of about 12.18 Thousands of square kilometers.

Russia played a key role in the latter two partitions, occupying the largest territory and having the largest population. Therefore, the Poles who were committed to the restoration of the country regarded the Russian Empire as the main culprit for Poland's subjugation.

Actually this is not the case.

The fundamental reason for Poland's subjugation was that Poland was too weak.

If we don’t understand this, even if Poland is restored, it will still be destroyed in the future.

The total distance from the Port of London to Calais, France, is only 150 kilometers. There are dozens of ferries going back and forth between London and Calais every day. Campbell and Damian took the first ferry of the day. There were not many passengers, and they could only talk about a few. Ten people.

Campbell is big-hearted and treats evacuation as a trip. He is full of yearning for the snow-capped mountains in Switzerland and does not pay much attention to other passengers.

Damian knows Russia well. Before boarding the ship, Damian carefully observed his fellow passengers. After confirming that there was no threat, Damian and Campbell boarded the ship.

"Madam, are you going to France too?"

Campbell was still in a flirtatious mood and took the initiative to strike up a conversation with a beautiful girl with a hot figure.

"This is the ferry to Calais. Where can we go if we don't go to France?"

The girl is wearing a Bragi dress that has become popular in Europe in recent years. Although the style is simple, the materials and workmanship are excellent. She is elegant, her makeup is thick but not flashy, her French is a standard Parisian accent, and she is accompanied by an old man in a tuxedo with gray hair and two unsmiling men in suits, which fully shows that the girl's identity is not simple.

"Are you from London? Why have I never seen you in London?" Campbell was surprised that such a girl could not be unknown in London.

The girl smiled but said nothing.

"Oh oh oh, are you traveling around the world?"

Campbell imagined that not only male members of the European aristocracy have a tradition of traveling around the world when they reach adulthood, but some girls also do so.

The girl smiled and nodded, confirming Campbell's guess.

Damian was not in the mood for sex, and his attention was on a bearded Slavic man.

Before boarding the ship, when Damian carefully observed his fellow passengers, he did not notice the whole person.

After the ferry left the port, the Slav appeared next to Damian, leaning on the railing of the ferry, smiling maliciously, looking at Damian insidiously.

Damian remained calm and stayed away from the Slav.

“Heh——”

The Slav sneered, took out a delicate knife and began to trim his nails.

Damian felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and his whole body began to tremble.

The knife this man used to trim his nails was a miniature Chasik saber.

Chasik, Cossack symbol.

“What’s wrong with you?”

Campbell finally discovered something unusual about Damian.

“Stop, stop, we have to get out of here——”

Damian rushed towards the cab like crazy.

"Wait, Damian, what's wrong with you?"

Campbell doesn't know yet that the danger is around him.

The girl's position is between Damian and the ferry cab.

Before Damian could reach the girl, the strong man in a suit behind the girl took a step forward and knocked Damian to the ground.

"Wait, this is my friend, he didn't mean to rush."

Campbell hurriedly explained to the girl.

The smile on the girl's face gradually became cold, and her eyes towards Campbell became cold. She took out a pack of cigarettes from the bag she carried with her, took one out, lit it, and slowly blew out a smoke ring.

"Dear Campbell, goodbye - this is the greeting from Grand Duke Yuriev."

Campbell's expression changed drastically, and before he could speak, there was a sudden numbness in his ribs, and he could not speak a word. Can't tell.

"Stop the boat quickly, someone has fallen into the water -"

The sailor finally discovered something unusual, but it was too late. The person who fell into the water seemed to have lost consciousness. He disappeared without any struggle in the water and fell to the bottom of the river.

Two weeks later, the London Marine Police found Campbell's body, which had been mostly eaten by sea fish.

Due to the severe damage, it was impossible to conduct an autopsy. The London Water Police Department hurriedly closed the case as a result of falling into the water.

Damian’s body was never found and disappeared.

It is not uncommon for passengers to slip and fall into the water, but there were a lot of people who fell into the water that day, 37 in total, almost all related to the list Alexander provided to Asquith.

Asquith was very angry, but there was nothing he could do. Alexander had already arrived in Paris.

Compared with the British, Alexander's actions in Paris were very smooth. The French were still very reasonable and could understand the mood of their allies. All members of the Social Democratic Labor Party who acted openly in Paris were arrested, and no one slipped through the net.

Difficulties arise in Switzerland.

At the Congress of Vienna in 1815, in order to limit the threat from France, the Anti-French Alliance adopted a statement of "Switzerland's permanent neutrality". Switzerland has since been determined to be a permanently neutral country.

In Switzerland, as long as you do not oppose the Swiss government, you will receive the protection of the Swiss government. Therefore, Switzerland is the most popular among rebels from all over the world. The headquarters of the Social Democratic Labor Party outside the Russian Empire is located in Switzerland.

Switzerland is far away from the Russian Empire, so the Swiss government directly rejected Alexander's request. It neither agreed to arrest Socialist Workers who were openly operating in Switzerland, nor to deport Socialist Workers.

If it were any other country, there really wouldn’t be much that could be done against Switzerland.

Switzerland is mountainous, the environment is complex, and all the people are soldiers. If you attack Switzerland, you will be opposed by the whole world.

Alexander had a way to directly warn the President of the Swiss Confederation, Adolf Deutscher, that if the Swiss government did not ban the Social Democratic Labor Party, the Russian Grand Duke would no longer have any business with Swiss banks.

Rich people are arrogant.
