Not
one
conversation
with
Sviazhsky
,
though
he
had
said
a
great
deal
that
was
clever
,
had
interested
Levin
;
but
the
conclusions
of
the
irascible
landowner
required
consideration
.
Levin
could
not
help
recalling
every
word
he
had
said
,
and
in
imagination
amending
his
own
replies
.
“
Yes
,
I
ought
to
have
said
to
him
:
You
say
that
our
husbandry
does
not
answer
because
the
peasant
hates
improvements
,
and
that
they
must
be
forced
on
him
by
authority
.
If
no
system
of
husbandry
answered
at
all
without
these
improvements
,
you
would
be
quite
right
.
But
the
only
system
that
does
answer
is
where
laborer
is
working
in
accordance
with
his
habits
,
just
as
on
the
old
peasant
’
s
land
half
-
way
here
.
Your
and
our
general
dissatisfaction
with
the
system
shows
that
either
we
are
to
blame
or
the
laborers
.
We
have
gone
our
way
—
the
European
way
—
a
long
while
,
without
asking
ourselves
about
the
qualities
of
our
labor
force
.
Let
us
try
to
look
upon
the
labor
force
not
as
an
abstract
force
,
but
as
the
Russian
peasant
with
his
instincts
,
and
we
shall
arrange
our
system
of
culture
in
accordance
with
that
.
Imagine
,
I
ought
to
have
said
to
him
,
that
you
have
the
same
system
as
the
old
peasant
has
,
that
you
have
found
means
of
making
your
laborers
take
an
interest
in
the
success
of
the
work
,
and
have
found
the
happy
mean
in
the
way
of
improvements
which
they
will
admit
,
and
you
will
,
without
exhausting
the
soil
,
get
twice
or
three
times
the
yield
you
got
before
.
Divide
it
in
halves
,
give
half
as
the
share
of
labor
,
the
surplus
left
you
will
be
greater
,
and
the
share
of
labor
will
be
greater
too
And
to
do
this
one
must
lower
the
standard
of
husbandry
and
interest
the
laborers
in
its
success
.
How
to
do
this
?
—
that
’
s
a
matter
of
detail
;
but
undoubtedly
it
can
be
done
.
”
This
idea
threw
Levin
into
a
great
excitement
.
He
did
not
sleep
half
the
night
,
thinking
over
in
detail
the
putting
of
his
idea
into
practice
.
He
had
not
intended
to
go
away
next
day
,
but
he
now
determined
to
go
home
early
in
the
morning
.
Besides
,
the
sister
-
in
-
law
with
her
low
-
necked
bodice
aroused
in
him
a
feeling
akin
to
shame
and
remorse
for
some
utterly
base
action
.
Most
important
of
all
—
he
must
get
back
without
delay
:
he
would
have
to
make
haste
to
put
his
new
project
to
the
peasants
before
the
sowing
of
the
winter
wheat
,
so
that
the
sowing
might
be
undertaken
on
a
new
basis
.
He
had
made
up
his
mind
to
revolutionize
his
whole
system
.
The
carrying
out
of
Levin
’
s
plan
presented
many
difficulties
;
but
he
struggled
on
,
doing
his
utmost
,
and
attained
a
result
which
,
though
not
what
he
desired
,
was
enough
to
enable
him
,
without
self
-
deception
,
to
believe
that
the
attempt
was
worth
the
trouble
.
One
of
the
chief
difficulties
was
that
the
process
of
cultivating
the
land
was
in
full
swing
,
that
it
was
impossible
to
stop
everything
and
begin
it
all
again
from
the
beginning
,
and
the
machine
had
to
be
mended
while
in
motion
.
When
on
the
evening
that
he
arrived
home
he
informed
the
bailiff
of
his
plans
,
the
latter
with
visible
pleasure
agreed
with
what
he
said
so
long
as
he
was
pointing
out
that
all
that
had
been
done
up
to
that
time
was
stupid
and
useless
.
The
bailiff
said
that
he
had
said
so
a
long
while
ago
,
but
no
heed
had
been
paid
him
.
But
as
for
the
proposal
made
by
Levin
—
to
take
a
part
as
shareholder
with
his
laborers
in
each
agricultural
undertaking
—
at
this
the
bailiff
simply
expressed
a
profound
despondency
,
and
offered
no
definite
opinion
,
but
began
immediately
talking
of
the
urgent
necessity
of
carrying
the
remaining
sheaves
of
rye
the
next
day
,
and
of
sending
the
men
out
for
the
second
ploughing
,
so
that
Levin
felt
that
this
was
not
the
time
for
discussing
it
.
On
beginning
to
talk
to
the
peasants
about
it
,
and
making
a
proposition
to
cede
them
the
land
on
new
terms
,
he
came
into
collision
with
the
same
great
difficulty
that
they
were
so
much
absorbed
by
the
current
work
of
the
day
,
that
they
had
not
time
to
consider
the
advantages
and
disadvantages
of
the
proposed
scheme
.
The
simple
-
hearted
Ivan
,
the
cowherd
,
seemed
completely
to
grasp
Levin
’
s
proposal
—
that
he
should
with
his
family
take
a
share
of
the
profits
of
the
cattle
-
yard
—
and
he
was
in
complete
sympathy
with
the
plan
.
But
when
Levin
hinted
at
the
future
advantages
,
Ivan
’
s
face
expressed
alarm
and
regret
that
he
could
not
hear
all
he
had
to
say
,
and
he
made
haste
to
find
himself
some
task
that
would
admit
of
no
delay
:
he
either
snatched
up
the
fork
to
pitch
the
hay
out
of
the
pens
,
or
ran
to
get
water
or
to
clear
out
the
dung
.
Another
difficulty
lay
in
the
invincible
disbelief
of
the
peasant
that
a
landowner
’
s
object
could
be
anything
else
than
a
desire
to
squeeze
all
he
could
out
of
them
.
They
were
firmly
convinced
that
his
real
aim
(
whatever
he
might
say
to
them
)
would
always
be
in
what
he
did
not
say
to
them
.
And
they
themselves
,
in
giving
their
opinion
,
said
a
great
deal
but
never
said
what
was
their
real
object
.
Moreover
(
Levin
felt
that
the
irascible
landowner
had
been
right
)
the
peasants
made
their
first
and
unalterable
condition
of
any
agreement
whatever
that
they
should
not
be
forced
to
any
new
methods
of
tillage
of
any
kind
,
nor
to
use
new
implements
.
They
agreed
that
the
modern
plough
ploughed
better
,
that
the
scarifier
did
the
work
more
quickly
,
but
they
found
thousands
of
reasons
that
made
it
out
of
the
question
for
them
to
use
either
of
them
;
and
though
he
had
accepted
the
conviction
that
he
would
have
to
lower
the
standard
of
cultivation
,
he
felt
sorry
to
give
up
improved
methods
,
the
advantages
of
which
were
so
obvious
.
But
in
spite
of
all
these
difficulties
he
got
his
way
,
and
by
autumn
the
system
was
working
,
or
at
least
so
it
seemed
to
him
.
