Chapter: 1796
The hall is as high as two floors, and there are crystal chandeliers hanging from the ceiling, which makes people imagine what it will look like after night.
Go forward to the end, and there are stairs on both sides leading to the second floor.
The cloister here is a square, and the vacant part in the center is exactly where the hall is covered with carpets. As long as Klein takes a glass of wine and stands behind the railing on the second floor, he can enjoy the dance below leisurely.
There are many rooms on the second floor, including a living room, a living room, a dining room, a bathroom, a billiard room, and a large number of bedrooms. If guests need to stay overnight, they will live here.
Similarly, there are two staircases on the second floor leading to the third floor, which is where Dawn Dant�s lives. The study room, which can be called a small library, has two cloakrooms, small bedrooms for personal servants and night maids, as well as rooms and bathrooms for family members, but Klein is currently single.
As for the other servants, they are in the row of bungalows at the back of the building, and the stables are in the other direction.
The basement of the building is equally spacious with a large storage room and wine cellar.
Klein, who took off his coat, stood upright on the large balcony of the semi-open room on the third floor. Looking at the scenery of the surrounding neighborhood, he couldn't help sighing in his heart: "Expensive still has its meaning. The rent of 315 pounds is not too wasteful..."
He had already paid a year's rent yesterday afternoon, and he could only force himself to look more and more pleasingly at this place.
At the same time, he also directly paid Walter's annual salary of 115 pounds, because after he got the Antigonus family notes, he was likely to abscond, causing Mr. Steward to lose his job.
Based on this idea, he also paid the housekeeper Tanya an annual salary of 42 pounds this morning, which made the lady feel the generosity and demeanor of Mr. Dwayne Dant�s.
Under the discussion and busyness of the two butlers, the servants have been hired. A male family property manager earns 30 pounds a year, a personal servant Richardson earns 35 pounds a year, and two servants are responsible for receiving guests at the dining table. The annual salary of the serving male servants is 25 pounds each, the annual salary of the two first-class maids is 18 pounds each, the annual salary of the two second-class maids is 12 pounds each, and the annual salary of the two menial servants is also 12 pounds each.
In addition to these, the annual salary of the cook is 30 pounds, the kitchen helper 15 pounds, the kitchen maid 13 pounds, the pantry maid 11 pounds, the house nurse 25 pounds, the small laborer 10 pounds, the two coachmen 25 pounds each, the two gardeners 20 pounds each, two Each of the laundry maids is 10 pounds, a total of 413 pounds, which is about 8 pounds a week.
Including the annual salaries of the two housekeepers, Klein would have to pay 570 pounds a year, which is about 11 pounds a week. This did not include the expenses of providing food, clothes, and various daily necessities.
When I open my eyes every Monday, I don't have any income yet, and I have to spend more than a dozen or twenty pounds... Klein did a random calculation in his mind, and forced himself to turn his gaze to the garden.
After paying the rent of the two carriages and the first week's salary of the servants at noon, and giving the housekeeper Tanya 1,000 pounds in cash for daily expenses, he only had 1,286 pounds of banknotes and 18 gold coins left with him, but "justice "Miss" and Ms. "Hermit" will gradually "account" within this week.
I don't know how long Tanya's 1,000 pounds can last, just to reserve all kinds of alcoholic beverages that are enough for the ball and banquet, it will cost at least a few hundred pounds... The rich Mr. Dawn Dant�s fell into deep thought, unable to extricate himself .
In order to calm down, he decided to take a walk above the gray mist while the housekeeper and servants were busy dealing with the affairs of the new house, and study the weird puppet sacrificed by Emlyn White.
��After the blood moon happened, Klein had no choice but to return to that mysterious space. He pulled Forsi in, suppressed his drowsiness and listened to the other party talking about Backlund's daily life. When everything subsided, he was too sleepy to accept it. Emlyn's sacrifice, after confirming that there was no abnormality, returned to the real world and fell asleep.
After straightening out his stylish dark vest, Klein walked to the entrance, opened the door, and said to Richardson, the personal servant standing outside: "I'm used to taking a three-quarter hour nap at this time, don't let anyone disturb me."
"Yes, sir," Richardson responded humbly.
He is an illegitimate son of mixed blood, his father is a Loen man, the steward of a manor, and his mother is a native of East Balam, a slave of that manor. After he was born, he was discriminated against and bullied, and developed a cowardly and obedient personality. Because of his good appearance, he was suitable for receiving guests. He was selected by the owner of the manor as a male servant and brought to Backlund.
When the upper and lower houses of the Loen Kingdom passed the bill abolishing slavery, he was miserable and unemployed, so he could only ask for assistance from the "Metropolis Helping Domestic Servants Association".
Before Klein, he served two families, made some mistakes, and accumulated a lot of experience. He was favored by the housekeeper Walter and became Dwayne Dant�s' personal servant.
Glancing at Richardson, who was tall and straight and about the same height as him now, Klein shook his head invisibly, and sighed in his heart: "This kind of guy who can be a star in appearance can only be a star in this age. He is a servant, and even though he is so tall, he is timid and cowardly. However, this is also an advantage. He is obedient, silent, and obedient. He will do what the master tells him to do, and he will never make his own decisions...
"If I only have one personal servant and need him to handle various affairs, then Richardson is definitely not qualified. However, I also have Butler Walter and so many servants. For the rest, he can rely on his experience and experience. The ability is enough to cope."
Without saying much, Klein closed the door and locked it, returned to the easy chair, took four steps backwards, and entered above the gray mist.
He sat down in the seat belonging to "The Fool", and with a wave of his hand, the scorched "Moon Puppet" flew over and landed in front of him.
After repeated inspections, Klein couldn't find anything special, so he took out a pen and paper, and wrote the divination sentence: "Its origin."
Putting down the pen, Klein waited for a few seconds before picking up the paper and leaning back against the back of the chair. JrNovels.com
