Chapter 42: Everything is in order

In early autumn, the morning autumn scenery of Boleyn Manor is full of dreams. On the Manor River, at sunrise, the air is filled with mist. Flocks of mallards loom on romantic mornings and everything is quiet and impressive. When the sun is just rising over the horizon, the outline of everything is surrounded by a golden soft light, almost like a fairyland.

The golden woods dotted with green meadows stand out from the rest, and the vibrant idyllic scenery reflects the sense of the vicissitudes of time in the old buildings.

"Bang!"

After a crunch of metal knocking, Arthur, dressed in casual clothes and wearing a peaked cap, slowly straightened his twisted body, slowly lowered the golf club he held in both hands, and raised the corners of his mouth with a relieved smile.

Finally playing。。。。。。

Arthur looked around with some weakness and saw that there was no one else except the four dogs, so he relaxed and bent down and put a golf ball back on the ball inserted in the grass.

Hold the bar with both hands, so that the hand and the bar become a whole, adjust the breathing, keep the body in a natural and comfortable state, and stand and relax naturally. Then bend your hips and knees slightly forward, aim your eyes in the direction of the blow, your arms and shoulders naturally droop, flip your arms slightly to the inside of your body, and turn your shoulders tighter and tighter your body like a screw.

The surging power is transmitted from the bottom to the top of its body, swing - bang!

Arthur slowly retracted his pole, put his hand on his forehead, and watched as he drew a beautiful parabola in the air towards the river in the distance.

"Poofβ€”"

On the grassy platform in the quiet castle backyard, Arthur could vaguely hear the sound of golf balls falling into the water, and Arthur could finally breathe a sigh of relief after successfully remastering the art of golf.

Originally, he refused to play golf, and after breakfast, he was ready to go into the study and continue writing a novel, but the butler Paul insisted that the Earl do proper exercise.

Horseback riding, shooting and golf, choose from three.

Undoubtedly, although Arthur received his memory and was extremely familiar with the three sports, but lacked practice, he was directly numb. The predecessor was of course proficient in these aristocratic sports, but Arthur, who had never ridden a horse, practiced a gun, or played golf, even if his mind was full of memories, it was in vain.

No way, Arthur had to choose golf, a sport that is not dangerous, to try it first, after all, riding a horse, he is really afraid of falling off the horse, as for the gun, to be honest, he really wants to play, men's love for guns, it can be said that it is engraved in the genes, but in the previous life, he came from the Celestial Empire, and he never had the opportunity to touch the gun at all, although he had also played his own qiang, however, most of the time he watched others play with guns... Besides, it's not made of steel, it's completely different.

For golf, although there is no such professional course, almost every manor with lawns can be used as a course, especially the grassy platform in the backyard of the castle, which is the golf practice area for the Boleyn family.

"Bang-"

After hitting a golf ball with ease again, Arthur held the golf club with both hands, and his eyes were full of beautiful scenery of the manor, and his mood really became extremely refreshed.

That's life!

With a sigh of emotion, hearing the barking of the dog, Arthur retracted his thoughts and looked back, and the butler Paul came over with a smile on his face.

Horseback riding and shooting, as well as these two major shortcomings, need to be carefully familiar with and re-mastered, otherwise, there is really no way to make it clear, you must know that these sports are compulsory skills that children from an aristocratic family must learn and master from an early age, and they are not perfunctory sentences that can be passed without playing for a long time.

"Earl, the water purifier merchant has arrived and is inspecting the castle's water pipes, and later they will give a best solution. ”

Butler Paul's report made Arthur nod slightly, then bent down to put a golf ball, adjust his posture and breathing, and swing violently.

"Bang!"

"Good shotβ€”"

Paul, the butler on the side, smiled and complimented, while Arthur just shook his head and smiled, and then said, "It must be guaranteed to be a five-stage filtration product." ”

"You can rest assured that we are looking for the most professional companies, and their product features and quality can be guaranteed, and I have already made detailed understanding and comparisons. ”

Hearing Paul's words, Arthur smiled and said, "That's good, you must know that even clean tap water is unrecognizable after passing through several kilometers of pipes, and it is known that tap water is polluted twice." Including galvanized pipe pollution, water pipes, faucets rust, high-rise water tank garbage pollution, these have become hidden dangers of tap water, not to mention that our British water quality also contains a lot of minerals, without pure filtration, I am worried about the disease from the mouth. ”

Paul, the housekeeper, also had a serious face, nodded thoughtfully, and when he thought of his sparse hairline, his eyes became more and more helpless and depressed.

"You are personally responsible for paying attention to this matter, there is nothing to do on my side, most of the time I will write novels in the study, you don't have to follow me all the time, you just busy with your work. Arthur said to Paul.

Now Arthur is basically familiar with everything in the castle, and he doesn't need someone to follow him all the time, and some things are very inconvenient.

"Okay, feel free to call you. Butler Paul said with a slight bow.

"Well, go ahead. Arthur nodded, continued to bend down, put the golf ball away, bent his knees, twisted the swing, swung hard, and hit the golf ball in one go, watching the golf ball draw a parabola and fall into the river.

After an hour of golf, even the able-bodied Arthur felt a little soreness and fatigue in his arms, and after calling for the waiter to clean up the clubs, Arthur moved his arms and walked back to the castle.

In the study, just after taking a few sips of coffee, the mobile phone on the desk rang, put down the coffee cup, picked up the mobile phone and glanced at it, showing that it was Tom White, the person in charge of the publishing house.

Picking up the phone, Tom White's greeting came, Arthur chuckled and exchanged a few words of greeting with the other party, I have to say that in addition to the Celestial Empire people who like to be tactful, go around in circles, and twist and turn a lot before they say something, the British are not too reckless.

Sometimes, chatting can last two or three minutes, which is really speechless.

β€œγ€‚γ€‚γ€‚ Boss, I've got in touch with the U.S. side, and I've arranged for someone to talk about it, Game of Thrones is basically no problem with the copyright, and the comic copyright of "The Walking Dead" is not much trouble, only "The Hunger Games" is a bit difficult, and there are already several publishers competing, after all, it is the hottest bestseller at the moment. β€œ

Hearing this result, Arthur smiled and said: "If the competition for "The Hunger Games" is too big, it is okay to give up, and it is not necessary to get the publishing rights, by the way, are there any employees in the publishing house who are familiar with the Celestial Empire?"

β€œγ€‚γ€‚γ€‚ Sorry, boss, there are no such employees in the company. ”

"That's it... Arthur slammed his mouth and groaned, and made a decision: "You are like this, recruit two employees who are proficient in Chinese and English and know the Celestial Empire very well, preferably Chinese or immigrants, and the professional conditions can be appropriately relaxed, but if they are elite talents."

This matter should be done as soon as possible, and when the recruitment is successful, bring someone to meet me, I have something to arrange. Three days, can you complete the recruitment in three days?"

Although it is a question sentence, the meaning of persistence can be heard in the tone, Tom White naturally will not finish speaking, this is recruitment, I believe that in this economic environment, there are too many people who want to find a job.

"Boss, don't worry, I will send out a recruitment notice immediately, and I believe that the results will be available soon. ”

"Well, I'm waiting for your good news. ”

After chatting about the operation of the publishing house for a while, Arthur hung up the phone and limited the time, in addition to his urgency to employ people, the most important reason was because of the terrible efficiency of the British people.

You must know that the average British person has no sense of urgency to do things, and he is obsessed with regulations, but there is no logic, lack of adaptability, and procrastination is commonplace. The British, who are heavy on three and four, can really kill you in a hurry when you are in a hurry.

In many organizations, companies are overstaffed, and the talent allocation is quite bad and unreasonable. That's why the first thing Arthur asked newspapers and publishers to do was streamline their organizations and lay off staff.
