No
,
Constantine
Thedorovitch
,
"
replied
the
peasant
.
"
Why
should
we
do
that
?
Remove
us
just
as
we
are
.
You
will
know
how
to
arrange
it
,
for
a
cleverer
gentleman
than
you
is
nowhere
to
be
found
.
The
misfortune
of
us
muzhiks
is
that
we
can
not
protect
ourselves
properly
.
The
tavern-keepers
sell
us
such
liquor
that
,
before
a
man
knows
where
he
is
,
a
glassful
of
it
has
eaten
a
hole
through
his
stomach
,
and
made
him
feel
as
though
he
could
drink
a
pail
of
water
.
Yes
,
it
knocks
a
man
over
before
he
can
look
around
.
Everywhere
temptation
lies
in
wait
for
the
peasant
,
and
he
needs
to
be
cunning
if
he
is
to
get
through
the
world
at
all
.
In
fact
,
things
seem
to
be
contrived
for
nothing
but
to
make
us
peasants
lose
our
wits
,
even
to
the
tobacco
which
they
sell
us
.
What
are
folk
like
ourselves
to
do
,
Constantine
Thedorovitch
?
I
tell
you
it
is
terribly
difficult
for
a
muzhik
to
look
after
himself
.
"
"
Listen
to
me
.
This
is
how
things
are
done
here
.
When
I
take
on
a
serf
,
I
fit
him
out
with
a
cow
and
a
horse
.
On
the
other
hand
,
I
demand
of
him
thereafter
more
than
is
demanded
of
a
peasant
anywhere
else
.
That
is
to
say
,
first
and
foremost
I
make
him
work
.
Whether
a
peasant
be
working
for
himself
or
for
me
,
never
do
I
let
him
waste
time
.
I
myself
toil
like
a
bullock
,
and
I
force
my
peasants
to
do
the
same
,
for
experience
has
taught
me
that
that
is
the
only
way
to
get
through
life
.
All
the
mischief
in
the
world
comes
through
lack
of
employment
.
Now
,
do
you
go
and
consider
the
matter
,
and
talk
it
over
with
your
mir
48
.
"
"
We
have
done
that
already
,
Constantine
Thedorovitch
,
and
our
elders
'
opinion
is
:
'
There
is
no
need
for
further
talk
.
Every
peasant
belonging
to
Constantine
Thedorovitch
is
well
off
,
and
has
n't
to
work
for
nothing
.
The
priests
of
his
village
,
too
,
are
men
of
good
heart
,
whereas
ours
have
been
taken
away
,
and
there
is
no
one
to
bury
us
.
"'
"
Nevertheless
,
do
you
go
and
talk
the
matter
over
again
.
"
"
We
will
,
barin
.
"
Here
the
factor
who
had
been
walking
on
the
barin
's
other
side
put
in
a
word
.
"
Constantine
Thedorovitch
,
"
he
said
,
"
I
beg
of
you
to
do
as
I
have
requested
.
"
"
I
have
told
you
before
,
"
replied
the
barin
,
"
that
I
do
not
care
to
play
the
huckster
.
I
am
not
one
of
those
landowners
whom
fellows
of
your
sort
visit
on
the
very
day
that
the
interest
on
a
mortgage
is
due
.
Ah
,
I
know
your
fraternity
thoroughly
,
and
know
that
you
keep
lists
of
all
who
have
mortgages
to
repay
.
But
what
is
there
so
clever
about
that
?
Any
man
,
if
you
pinch
him
sufficiently
,
will
surrender
you
a
mortgage
at
half-price
,
--
any
man
,
that
is
to
say
,
except
myself
,
who
care
nothing
for
your
money
.
Were
a
loan
of
mine
to
remain
out
three
years
,
I
should
never
demand
a
kopeck
of
interest
on
it
.
