The small army of servants had a clear division of labor, each with his own area of responsibility, and the steward led the servants, assigning work, supervision, and acceptance to each of them. He knew even the least common etiquette, the nuances of the Bordeaux wines of 1831 and 1832, and the delicacies of the world, so that every fine ornament was appropriate. Shopping, family finance, laundry, entertaining guests, preparing dinners, repairing the house, gardening, contacting outside businesses, etc., everything needs to be arranged by a housekeeper to ensure that the whole house is running well. He even knows the rules of the game of the nobles better than his master, and rigidly requires his words and deeds according to traditional etiquette, so the best servant has no life of his own, and everything is based on the house and the master.

If anyone thinks that the trivial things such as ironing the newspaper with an iron in the morning, knocking on the door three times in the morning, putting in the brace before shining shoes are all there is to the butler, it is really a blasphemy of the name of the "English butler". Even the toast in the host's breakfast is only the responsibility of the chef's assistant, not to mention the above trivialities?

The greatest role of the steward is to plan and supervise the affairs of the house, and the most effective is when large gatherings are held.

In spring and autumn, when the owner of the mansion invites VIPs to hunt and gather, it is the biggest test for the housekeeper.

The aristocrats who spend money as their biggest purpose in life are sharp-eyed pickers. A nobleman who does not go out with a personal servant will certainly be despised and reduced to a situation where there is no servant to take out the door; New servants who are inexperienced are also scorned and ostracized by older servants, and seniority is also important in this profession. However, the arrogant aristocrats were very polite to the butler (whether it was their own or someone else's), after all, people who spend money for themselves do not have much ability to live, and to put it bluntly, without stewards and servants, they cannot move an inch.

"Oh, I understand," Ji Xin, who listened to the explanation, rolled his eyes, "I just want to tell me how important your future work is?" ”

"You? I'm so angry" Nancy, who realized that she had been retaliated against by Ji Xin, was a little speechless, why is there still such a person in the world, isn't it that he didn't give a good face when he met for the first time, and he actually remembered it for so long, and besides, I'm a girl, do you understand it?

In the final analysis, she is just a girl in her teenage years, and she has been praised since she was a child, how can she ever be treated like this? The more she thought about it, the more angry Nancy's eyes gathered, and when she saw that the tears the size of the bean were about to flow down, Lisa glanced at Ji Xin, who had no heart and lungs, and hurriedly comforted, "Sister Nancy, don't take it to heart, this person is like this to everyone, he is lazy, lazy, and even more out of tune."

Listening to Lisa's words was funny, the culprit was trained like a schoolboy who had made a mistake, and kept bending down to show that he was wrong, Nancy snorted and laughed, and felt that she had made a big fuss just now. Rubbing his reddened eyes, he continued, "I reported the news because if you lose face, not only will you lose face, but even George and my grandfather Kutch, who are optimistic about you, will lose face, so you have to go all out no matter what aspect you take, otherwise no one can afford the terrible consequences."

And don't think that being a housekeeper can only be those dead wages, in fact, the people you can contact every day are either rich or expensive, and the connections accumulated over a long period of time are terrifying and scary. Coupled with Mr. George's intention to support, my father's own company is now also in shape, that is, Knox's Rubik's Cube Technology, which is well-known in the industry, you may have heard of it.

This example is not to show off, but to show you that families like ours often become the target of attention from other families and even newspapers and magazines, and often one person does something inappropriate at a party, and the next day those gossip media like Entertainment Weekly will publish the headlines on the front page of the Guarantee Club, word for word.

So basically everyone will follow the routine when they go to the party, and those things written in the novel that eat and drink regardless of other people's eyes, or wear slippers and jeans to the banquet are impossible to happen, you must know that the United States is the home of Hollywood, and the energy of the paparazzi is unquestionable.

"Who makes the common people like to see it, I still remember hiding under the quilt with my sisters in high school, discussing the gossip and anecdotes of those celebrities and rich people with the lights on, and even who has a big meal even has a leaderboard"

After listening to Nancy and Lisa's explanation, Ji Xin was quite speechless, he originally thought that the ranch he bought in Boozer was already very good, but compared with George and his ilk, it was simply not in the stream, and someone would pay attention to this meal all the time, and even drive magazine sales and feed a large number of people, how can I compare.

Ji Xin now knows that compared with these super-rich people, he can only be regarded as a poor person, not to mention, it is Nancy's family, which has also been operated for three generations and has assets of billions, which is far from being comparable to the current Ji Xin. Anyway, this person can't imagine that a casual sentence in public will lead to dozens of reviews and analysis, and even stocks and bonds will be turbulent.

This is a nightmare, and I don't know how those rich people survived, Ji Xin shuddered a little as long as he thought about it, and he was even more determined to refuse George's kindness

"Xin, if you don't want to go, forget it, let Nancy explain, we don't ask for anything anyway, and it's the same next time we visit."

Lisa once saw Ji Xin's home in Sichuan Province (ps: photo), knowing that his family background is average, I am afraid that he will not be used to such an occasion, because the people who go at night may also have ghosts in their hearts, and Lisa is also afraid that someone will stimulate Zhuang Rui at that time, you must know that even relatives will turn against each other for the sake of interests, not to mention outsiders who have never known each other? This is one of the reasons why she did not want to attend the banquet.

"It's okay, let's go take a look, I'm also curious about what will be waiting for me at night, is it all aristocratic etiquette, investment knowledge or something?"

Ji Xin thought about it for a while, he was bored staying in the ranch, and he could adjust his life when he came here. And they all come, and they can't pass through the door without entering. Anyway, after returning to Boozer, Thomas asked him what he had done, and he couldn't say that he hadn't even seen his old master's face, and Ji Xin was also very curious about the completely upper-class form of the drinking party, maybe there would be something strange in it.

"It's hard to say, every time a newcomer comes, the exam questions are randomly decided by the host and the invited guests, although it is conventional, but Mr. George will definitely not be too difficult for you, but those guest questions will definitely not be too simple, people regard you as an heir, or the most promising one, and one of the younger people in this year's circle of upstarts.

This kind of meeting, in the past, was the elders with promising juniors or newcomers in the industry to have a big reunion, everyone met and chatted, which was regarded as an endorsement of someone entering the circle. The atmosphere is relatively peaceful, and there will be no intrigue.

But now that they are participating in the party, many people have begun to compare themselves with each other, the jewelry they wear, the cars are getting more and more expensive, and even some people will compare their female companions with each other.

I remember the last time Mark Eliot Zuckerberg, who invented Facebook, was asked to talk to a couple of Harvard professors emeritus about the importance of college study. Doig danced classical with his female companions. The former is due to the experience of dropping out of school and repeatedly speaking out in public; The latter, because of his admiration for modern style painting, disdains classical beauty.

If you are absent for no reason, tomorrow the whole circle will definitely be full of legends about you, you must know that those second and third generations who are full of food and have nothing to do will not be kind enough to help you spread your prestige, it must be how to ruin how to come. Don't think about dealing with people in the future. ”

Although Boozer is not big, the proportion of wealthy people is one of the best in the world, with a beautiful environment, high-quality education, including those large companies that provide customized services for private individuals, and luxury brand stores are located here, so it can be said that the whole body, especially the invitation of George, who is rivaled by the country, will not be refused.

"I know" Ji Xin became serious at this time, "Thank you this time, but it's too late to hold on to your feet temporarily, anyway, no matter what tricks I make, I will continue to do my best."

Ji Xin understands that Nancy is actually just a somewhat spoiled child, and she doesn't care about the previous holidays, but this time thanks to her important information, she won't go into battle shirtless, so she is mentally prepared, isn't she?

"Hmph, I'm not here for you, am I?" Seeing that the goal was achieved, the tsundere woman replied to her nature in a second, "Everyone is almost here, let's go see George and a few villains first" and walked a few steps, and the person suddenly stopped again, "That's right, Sister Lisa, don't talk much no matter what happens, and others won't deliberately target you"

Touching his nose, Ji Xin knew that he had offended this woman just now, which would obviously make a difference in treatment, seeing that the Lisa family who had comforted her just now was very caring, and he couldn't wait to tell all the information he knew, but he always kept a face on himself. Ji Xin didn't explain, anyway, he could hear it by the way when he introduced it, can the effect be the same? And Lisa won't be wronged, so she can let go of the gang of troublemakers. Ji Xin, who was originally going to settle the matter, was a little angry, since people are unkind, then don't blame me for being unjust.
