Chapter 175 [Recruitment]

After a few days of back and forth, Thornton Manor was finally transferred to Yang Nianzhong's name and became the private property of the Yang family, as the owner of this manor, he has the right to change the name of his manor, which is a bit inappropriate to call Thornton Manor, but what is the name? Yang Nianzhong had already thought of calling it Swan Valley.

In the end, my mother decided that since the main building in the manor is Neuschwanstein Castle, then let's call this manor Swan Manor, the name is loud and atmospheric and unique. In this regard, Yang Nianzhong raised his hands and feet to agree with his mother's opinion, which was actually Annie's opinion.

After completing the transaction, the Yang family was faced with the problem of moving, and first hired someone from a housekeeping company to clean up and down Neuschwanstein Castle. Repair where it should be repaired, replace it where it should be replaced, this is not something that can be completed in a short time, and it takes a week for the Yang family to officially move in.

Yang Nianzhong helped his mother pack up her things at the old Beijing fried sauce noodle restaurant and prepared to move, while discussing with her mother, although the estate is not large, but it also has 250 acres.

Although the castle is a miniature version of Swan Castle, there are more than 30 rooms in large and small rooms combined, and if you rely on the mother and Anne alone, you will never be able to clean the house, and you will not be able to do it from exhaustion.

Not to mention, there are more than 150 acres of farms to take care of, vineyards, ranch farms, and just taking care of the cattle and sheep living in the pastures is very problematic. What should I do, I have no choice but to hire people, and although Yang Nianzhong is very low-key now, even he doesn't think that he is a rich man or a big family.

But you, Yang Nianzhong, are a billionaire after all, where is your asset level, and you are no longer a little white person. Now that I have bought such a big house and so much land, can I rely on the two and a half people in my family to support it? Even cleaning the room can exhaust the whole family to death.

So my mother decided to hire a headhunter and Griffin's help to find a very qualified butler, who is said to have graduated from a Belgian butler college. After serving as a housekeeper in a British aristocratic family for ten years, he had to give up his career in Europe because he was an American and chose to return to his hometown to develop.

This housekeeper is 35 years old this year, and his ability to manage a small family is more than enough in terms of professional knowledge and experience. After the first meeting, Yang Nianzhong's image made Yang Nianzhong very satisfied, sitting and standing in each other's faces, and it was the way to manage the head of the entire family, so that Yang Nianzhong nodded when he listened.

Everyone knows that a good housekeeper is an important position for a family, an indispensable position, a housekeeper not only takes care of the life of the entire family for the owner, but also helps the owner manage the finances, manages the assets of his family, and protects the safety of the whole family, and he is the most courageous bodyguard at critical moments.

It is also the best teacher for children who is extremely knowledgeable, and it is said that it takes three generations to accumulate in order for an ordinary family to become a nobleman, but having a good housekeeper will shorten this time.

Although the housekeeper's fee is extremely high, he listened to his mother's advice and inspected the housekeeper, and after his resume, he did not hesitate to sign a contract with the other party, a thousand is ten years, and the annual salary reached 250,000 US dollars.

After signing, this 35-year-old man named Robert Kennedy will become the head of the Yang family, although this Yang family has only two mothers and sons, and there can be no fewer members, but no matter how you calculate, the Yang family is billionaires after all.

It's not too much to call it a family, after Robert Kennedy took office, he began to make a big axe, supplementing the composition of the Yang family. Because the area of Swan Valley is too large, it is also a farm and a wine estate, and there are more than 30 large and small rooms in Swan Castle, so you can't let the family members take care of it by themselves.

Therefore, the Yang family needs to recruit troops, and the first thing to consider is the problem of maids, if the maids are configured according to the living habits of European nobles, the number of people is too huge. The Yang family can't afford to raise so many people now, so they can only streamline, but if you streamline it, the duties of the maid will also be refined.

The first mother, Yang Lan, and his girlfriend Anne are the mistresses of the Yang family, and the hostess cannot be without a personal maid, if Yang Nianzhong and Annie get married, they will have children.

It will take a lot of energy to take care of the child after having a child, so you can't let Yang Nianzhong and Anne take care of the child personally, the child's nanny should be complete, the second maid who cleans, and the third maid who helps in the kitchen.

A minimum of six people is needed for this calculation, and this is the number of maids, and the next step should be to consider male servants, including bodyguards, gardeners, cooks, drivers, and those who work on pastures, farms, and wine estates.

In this way, the number of male servants alone will reach 12, and with the addition of six maids, the number of servants alone in a housekeeper will reach 19, which is several times more than the number of the Yang family.

The salary of these servants needs to be paid about 800,000 US dollars per year, and you also have to pay for other people's pension insurance, medical insurance, accident insurance and other insurance amounts. Such a calculation is not millions, and it will definitely not be able to support the Yang family's current asset scale for a few years.

Yang Nianzhong and his brother John, not counting the Declaration of Independence, the profits earned from the auction time of the month add up, and the sky can be 2 million US dollars. But who can guarantee that Yang Nianzhong's income in the autumn auction will be as high as the spring auction? If Yang Nianzhong's luck turns purple, his income is good every year, and the average income in the next year can only reach five or six million US dollars.

The cost of the servant alone will be reduced by 1/6, if Yang Nianzhong is unlucky, it would be good to be able to maintain the normal operation of the family, and he took his brother to work hard outside for a year.

The money earned back is only enough for the normal operation of the family, and I don't know whether these servants are serving themselves, working for themselves or for themselves, who are the masters, serving them and working for them.

The Yang family's assets have not yet reached this level, so Yang Nianzhong voted against the expansion plan formulated by Robert Kennedy's butler. The entire family servant team was reduced to a minimum of ten, and a butler, Robert Kennedy, was Chinese New Year's Eve and $250,000 a year.

A chef who specializes in French and Italian cuisine earns $60,000 a year, and a driver who specializes in driving various vehicles earns $50,000 a year.

Whether it is the crops planted or the cattle and sheep raised, it is just to provide food guarantee for the family, in a popular phrase, that is, enough to eat. So two people can take on this task, each with an annual salary of $50,000, and the maid who is responsible for cleaning and serving the mother, a total of four people, each with an annual salary of $40,000, and the cost is controlled within $500,000 per year.
