– And the original tomorrow night! Can you bring it?

Aman-Jalil's calmness surprised even himself.

– I'll do the impossible for you.

He hid the photos and left. On his signal, wine and exquisite snacks were brought in. After the snacks, two plump girls followed into Arif's bedroom.

Aman-Jalil hurried to Ahmed. On the way, he concocted a conspiracy and decided to include Kasym among the conspirators.

– Everything is fine, boss! – he reassured Ahmed. – A few scoundrels, including your relative Kasym, are behaving in such a way that it has reached the capital and the Great Leader. Arif didn't reveal names to me, but I’ll find out. He believed me that you have nothing to do with it, everything is fine.

Ahmed was pleased to hear that Aman-Jalil had skillfully averted the storm but frowned at the mention of Kasym.

– My relatives will eat me alive; I can't let you arrest that hooligan. Listen, take Arif to Nigar's concert tomorrow, secretly, don't tell anyone. If you catch Kasym doing anything, he's yours, but make sure Arif approves, understood?

– As you command, father! – whispered Aman-Jalil quietly and submissively.

Ahmed patted his cheek contentedly.

Arif was surprised to hear such an unusual proposal: to attend a famous singer's concert, and secretly at that.

– Why, dear? If something deserves your attention, send a servant, invite them, listen alone, if you want, pay them, their rates are low, if you want, don't pay, treat them royally, and if you don't like them, kick them out hungry.

– There are rumors, esteemed one, that the MC tells a story that speaks indecently about Iosif Besarionis's mustache.

– One such already disappeared on Bibir Island for such indecent hints and comparisons. He fell ill, and I personally included him in the barge list.

– The barge? – Aman-Jalil was surprised. – Ah, you mean it metaphorically?

– Literally, why metaphorically? We fill an old barge with the sick, take it out to the open sea. A small explosion, the barge sinks.

Aman-Jalil feigned admiration, immediately understanding who was the author of this economical idea.
