Could anyone ever imagine, that minister Vensan will loose everything someday? Services that Vensan provided to nation are very significant: in youth he was biologist and invented imperceptible, but effective mass killing weapon: genetically modified insects - they cause convulsions in fleas and wasp - killers. When he was thirty, he has already been a member of Academy of Sciences. To neutralize his inventor's talent, he was appointed minister of agriculture. He turned into old boring man, at this time he was 60 years old, and he rested on laurels.
Of course he had enemies that patiently have dug the grave for him. All began with well considered actions: yells, protests, furious speeches, restless mooing cows, sheep and ducks, scattered on the avenues dung, tractors… Crowd always thinks that next leader will better than the previous. Maybe they are right, because Teodorus, competitor of Vensan, is full of enthusiasm, energy and ideas. This rectilinear man is sitting in the garden under the tree surrounded with accomplices: he is not tall, with pot-belly and short extremities. He reads, rereads, corrects and signs proclamations, declarations, proposals, programs… Behind the fence of the garden he can hear shouts of revolting and determined crowd. It wants changes, it noise is similar to music of Wagner, Beethoven's ninth symphony!
Vensan is in his cabinet. Windows are closed, but he can hear crowd's noise. Their slogans are ruthless and categorical. Vensan signs his resignation
