Chapter 31: The Legacy of Loyalty
Bai Qi saw the two of them, and the two of them also saw Bai Qi.
Eyes greeted.
The two of them walked straight up.
"What is this doing? Are you moving? Charles pretended to be stupid.
Bai Qi didn't break it, and replied calmly: "You may not know that the Xinka family was cursed before, and no matter what they operated, they would lose money, so the Xinka family gave up doing business very early. ”
Onassis exchanged glances with Charles.
They had never heard of such a thing.
But if you think about it, the Xinka family really doesn't have any property in operation.
Onassis spoke, "There is such a thing, and now?" ”
"Now, I've discovered the source of the curse and solved it."
Both of them thought of Bai Qi's previous words.
What is there to do with looking for him, haunted mansion or something.
At the time, the two didn't think about it deeply, but now they feel even more weird and terrifying.
"So, you decided to sell these things and exchange them for money so that the Xinka family can continue to do business?"
Onassis asked directly.
Bai Qi returned an approving look, "Yes." ”
"Wow, that's definitely a big deal, what are you going to do?" Charles chimed in.
Bai Qi shrugged his shoulders, "I'm not a businessman, I'm not very clear about this aspect, I asked the housekeeper to find any projects worth investing in, if you have a good recommendation, Jer'll thank you." ”
Just as the three of them were talking.
I don't know where I got the news.
Representatives of the three banks also came to visit, and they all wanted Bai Qi to deposit the money in their banks.
After Bai Qi met with the three of them.
Whispered to Onassis and Charles, "Is there anyone you are familiar with?" ”
The two looked at each other, "You don't think we found it, do you?" ”
Bai Qi smiled: "If it were you, I would have chosen, but I think it should be someone from the insurance company or the auction house, or their employees." ”
Charles replied with great certainty: "It should be the insurance company, these people are with the people in the bank all day long." ”
Onassis looked serious, "These guys don't have any professional ethics at all, can you be a security guard?" If it doesn't work, stay with me for a few days, and then move back when there is proper security, I suspect that someone will have something wrong. ”
"To me...... Let's go to Viscount Onassis, he's safer. ”
Charles wanted to talk about his home, but when Onassis saw it, he changed his tune.
In terms of safety, Bai Qi is naturally not worried at all.
Now that they have spoken, most outsiders believe that there will be a marriage between the Sinka family and the Onassis family.
This is not what Bai Qi wants to see.
He hopes that more children will be involved in this matter.
So that he can pick and choose.
"Please rest assured, I can still handle this little thing, let's talk about what industries are worth investing in."
Lord Sinka's mansion spent a few days in peace.
In the past few days, the items that have been shipped from Lord Sinka's mansion have been auctioned off one after another.
The items are auctioned at low prices, and each show brings a slightly more expensive collection.
Gradually, the funds in the account also rose from 100 to 10,000.
"Sir, you need to choose a personal valet for the young master, do you have a suitable candidate?"
Ask him this? I guess I'm testing him.
This kind of temptation, Bai Qi likes it very much.
Explain that you have done your best.
"I don't, I don't understand this, it's up to you to choose."
The valet is second only to the housekeeper in importance to the head of the household.
They work all day by their owner's side and get to know the family's core estate.
Therefore, the selection must be cautious.
"I have two candidates, do you want to put them to the test?"
"No, you'll be fine."
The butler bowed his head.
continued: "Do you have a suitable candidate for the next butler?" ”
The next steward.
Bai Qi glanced at the housekeeper more.
The gray-haired old man looked extremely stiff and bony.
It's okay to live another twenty or thirty years.
"No, you can also investigate this."
"I have a grandson, would you like to see him? If you don't have a candidate, I want to groom him to be the next steward. ”
The grandson of the old housekeeper.
Bai Qi was a little curious.
"Your grandson, your family won't be a housekeeper for generations, will you?"
"It's not." The butler replied: "The Xinka family did have a family that had served for generations, but that family disappeared due to an accident two hundred years ago, and then every generation of the Xinka family's butlers were summoned. ”
With a look of nostalgia on his face, the butler continued, "I am the only one in my family who has served the Xinka family at present. I was a small man without a family, and I almost starved to death on the streets before the head of my family found me. ”
A family that has been passed down from generation to generation, a steward that has been passed down from generation to generation.
This kind of loyalty is somewhat enviable.
It's a pity that it has been passed on for two hundred years.
I don't know what happened to me.
"Do you think you haven't repaid enough for letting your grandson inherit your business?"
The housekeeper bowed his head and said, "Yes, the Xinka family has reached a critical period of survival, and if it weren't for my grandson, I wouldn't be at ease." ”
After a family of 500 years, there is only one only son left.
It's really an existential juncture.
"Can your grandson understand your painstaking efforts? Does your son approve of your decision? ”
The butler replied firmly: "They all think that this is an extremely glorious thing, my son is no longer there, but he knows my decision, and my grandson is also very clear. ”
The son is gone.
It's another sad past.
"How old is your grandson?"
"17 years old."
Yo, the same age as his body.
With more than 400 years of experience, Bai Qi can't see the slightest immaturity.
But the actual age of his body does not change.
For a while, an interesting idea was suddenly born in Bai Qi's heart.
Suppose, his grandson is really good.
Is it possible to make him a sequence.
It doesn't need to be too high, just have more room for self-preservation.
But after becoming a sequence, can he still be willing to be just a housekeeper?
"Your loyalty is impressive, and you can raise your grandson to be your successor."
The butler's expression slowed, "Then when would you like to meet him?" ”
"I'll see him when he comes, so there's no need to make special arrangements."
"Thank you for your trust."
The housekeeper leaves.
He took the two boys who were waiting at the door to meet little Xinka.
The two men were about the same age as Sinka, and would not be older than fifteen.
Frostbite on the hands.
It's a very hard life.
I don't know what happened.
Bai Qi retracted his gaze, thinking about whether to go to the church now to find some work, or wait for the auction to end.
To be on the safe side, it's clearly the latter.
Roland is still very immature, and in the face of emergencies, it is difficult for her to deal with it.
Why don't you teach her something, like shooting?
Bai Qi got up and prepared to go to Roland.
At this time, the two boys who had just entered were kicked out.
The butler's voice could be heard in the distance.
"Young master, a personal maid is not suitable, men with a good family education choose personal male servants, only women will choose personal maids......"
This little guy wants a valet maid?
Yes, the mentality is very mature.
If it were me, I would choose it too, if I went back to four hundred and fifty years before I was reborn, if I were a young master.
"Besides, Miss Roland is not a servant in the house, and she cannot be your personal maid."
Well?
Bai Qi suspected that he had misheard.
The little guy wants Roland to be his personal maid?
Good boy, he's very ambitious.
Originally, he planned to wait for him to leave, and let Roland take care of this kid for a while.
But now it seems that this idea is ill-conceived.
