Chapter 34: The Study of Etiquette

"Mr. Anderson, I'll trouble you for the next period of time, and I'll pay you according to the world's top etiquette trainers. ”

After confirming Anderson's identity, Tang Yi was naturally overjoyed.

With Anderson, a noble butler of the Eagle Country, training himself in etiquette-related knowledge, he believes that with the doubling of memory and understanding in time, it will not be long before he can achieve the desired goal.

Originally, he wanted to learn some things related to traditional Chinese culture first, but after all, he still had to arrange his study plan according to his actual situation.

You can only start with what you need.

He feels that even if the famous family of thousands of years ago is passed down to this day, it must keep pace with the times and learn from China and the West.

Tang Yi doesn't even dare to eat Western food now, the reason is very simple, he doesn't understand Western food etiquette at all, and he doesn't know what desserts are before and after.

He only knows the simplest common sense of the left fork and the right knife.

There is no way, Hui County, where his hometown is located, does not even have a formal Western restaurant.

Tang Yi's biggest advantage is that he is self-aware and knows how to introspect and self-examine.

As the wallet becomes more and more bulging, the environment is more and more high-end, and the people in contact with it are becoming more and more identious, it is urgent to improve themselves from all aspects as soon as possible.

Otherwise, I'm sorry for the famous family temperament on him.

Etiquette training is only the first step.

"Mr. Tang, you are too polite. If you don't have anything else on your schedule for the afternoon, how about we start today?"

Anderson was as old-fashioned as ever, and even his tone seemed to have a special rhythm.

His every move, including his eyes and micro-expressions, steals an indescribable elegance and rigor everywhere.

This gave Tang Yi a feeling of being respected and being very comfortable with each other.

Just chatting with him so simply, Tang Yi would subconsciously think that he was from an extraordinary background and was very cultivated and knowledgeable.

In fact, Anderson is just a housekeeper.

As for whether he has cultivation and knowledge, only he knows.

That's the beauty of etiquette.

"No problem, ready to start. ”

Tang Yi smiled and nodded, and immediately started the time doubling.

As soon as the time doubled started, he clearly felt that his brain had become much clearer, and there was a comfortable sense of transparency.

Many questions that he couldn't figure out before were instantly like a woman without clothes, allowing him to clearly see every part he wanted to see.

"Is this what it feels like to be a genius, it's really awesome, if only I could keep it this way all the time!"

All of a sudden, Tang Yi became obsessed with this state of genius.

Tang Yi's start-up time doubled, and Anderson didn't notice anything abnormal, and invited him to the small conference room supporting the presidential suite, and officially started the first lesson of etiquette training.

"First of all, it is an honor to explain etiquette to Mr. Tang, and I hope we will have a pleasant exchange process in the future. ”

So, before we get started, let's understand what etiquette is. Mr. Tang, can you tell me what you understand to be etiquette?"

Anderson looked at Tang Yi with encouragement on his face and asked.

From beginning to end, he did not claim to be a teacher.

In fact, Anderson has always had a doubt in his heart, from the first time he saw Tang Yi, he clearly felt a noble temperament from him.

It was an aristocratic temperament very similar to that of Mr. Baron, and the baron that Anderson served had been knighted and nobleman for more than two hundred years.

Tang Yi's aristocratic temperament is no weaker than that of the baron, what does this mean?

But in Anderson's opinion, a young man who must have come from an ancient aristocratic family in China, needs to ask him to train etiquette knowledge, isn't it a joke.

Anderson had a lot of speculation in his heart, and he was more inclined to believe that Tang Yi might be the illegitimate son of a certain aristocratic family boss who was raised outside since he was a child.

No matter what he thought in his heart, he didn't show the slightest expression on his face, and he always maintained a high level of respect and respect.

"What is etiquette? Mr. Anderson, today you are a teacher and I am a student, please give me advice. ”

Tang Yi frowned slightly, the effective time for doubling the time was only 4 hours, his time was precious, and he didn't want to waste it on such an inconsequential issue.

He wants dry goods!

Besides, he didn't want to talk nonsense, lest he expose his ignorance.

He also loves face!

"I'm sorry. ”

Anderson noticed Tang Yi's dissatisfaction, and after apologizing, he stopped selling Guanzi, and then explained: "Etiquette is a code of conduct that people agree on in terms of appearance, appearance, manners, rituals, speech and behavior in order to respect each other in social interactions. ”

According to the scope of application, etiquette is divided into five types: government etiquette, business etiquette, service etiquette, social etiquette, and foreign-related etiquette. ”

"I think Mr. Tang, you should be more interested in social etiquette and business etiquette for the time being, right?"

Speaking of this, Anderson paused and stopped to ask Tang Yi's opinion.

"Well, let's talk about social etiquette first. ”

Tang Yi nodded, he can't use government etiquette or anything like that now.

The most practical thing is social etiquette.

"Okay, there are some differences between the general social etiquette and the aristocratic social etiquette, although there are some differences. Today, I'm going to give you a demonstration of aristocratic table manners. ”

After figuring out Tang Yi's needs, Anderson didn't talk nonsense and started to dry goods directly.

He pulled a chair and sat next to Tang Yi and demonstrated: "The first is to sit in a sitting position, and never touch the back of the chair. The body should sit up straight and bring food to the mouth. Even if you eat snacks that are easy to fall off, don't lean over to reach them. Drinking soup is the only exception – you can bow your head slightly. ”

Anderson sat on the chair, his waist was straight, Tang Yi pretended to eat like him, feeling very awkward and unaccustomed, and a little tired.

Seeing that Anderson had only said it once, Tang Yi had mastered all the essentials and details that needed attention, and praised him sincerely: "Your movements are very standard, you may be a little uncomfortable at first, but after you get used to it, you will definitely like this way of eating." ”

Under the effect of doubling his memory and understanding, it only took Tang Yi a very short time to remember and fully adapt to this method.

"Go ahead. ”

After remembering and adapting, he has begun to enjoy this rigorous and elegant posture.

"Okay, Mr. Tang. ”

Next, Anderson explained in simple terms from the dining dress, entering the restaurant, seating, ordering, dining order, selection of topics during the banquet, checkout and payment, going out and leaving, etc., for Tang Yi to explain and demonstrate carefully and patiently.

After studying systematically, Tang Yi asked Jiang Yutong, the personal butler, to arrange a table of standard Western food, send it to the room, and invite Anderson to eat.

After eating a meal, even with Anderson's rigor, he couldn't find the slightest fault with Tang Yi.

Every detail of this meal is like a rookie who doesn't understand the etiquette of aristocratic dining, and he is simply a noble young master who has received aristocratic education since he was a child.

Before leaving the door, Anderson couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Tang, are you sure you still need my etiquette training?"

"Of course, tomorrow at ten o'clock in the morning, we will move on to the next item, Mr. Anderson, your attainment in aristocratic etiquette is very deep, it is like it is in your blood, and today you have been very helpful to me, thank you. ”

Tang Yi didn't just apply it to his senses, but also integrated it himself, drew inferences from one another, and said goodbye to him with an elegant smile in the way Anderson had just taught him.
