I earn really hard money

Chapter 255 This Feels Really Good

"Mr. He, can I take your words as your approval, that is to say, I passed the interview successfully?"

Robert rubbed his hands excitedly, his face was full of anticipation, and his eyes were shining.

He Xia thinks that Robert is really interesting, and he can always express his emotions just right, which is somewhat similar to his [actor] ability, which has a strong emotional appeal.

"That's right, it's passed! Let's take them to work. You are more experienced than me in how to arrange it."

Robert bent down to salute: "Your trust is my honor."

After speaking, he walked towards the door.

Lucy waited for Robert to go out, took out a contract from her bag, and said, "Mr. He, this is a contract about Robert."

He Xia took over the contract from Lu Qian and looked at it. It contained an introduction to Robert's abilities. It said, equestrianism, appreciation of famous paintings, tasting of famous wines, gun management, cigar maintenance, jewelry maintenance, luxury car maintenance, emergency rescue... …

From childhood to adulthood, I have dabbled in almost all aspects of life. I may not be very proficient, but if I really need it, I can barely use it at the beginning, and then slowly learn and explore in the work, and I will naturally become more and more sophisticated.

"Good guy, graduated from the Department of Social Sciences of the University of Barcelona, ​​and took five foreign languages, humanities and gardening as electives... Such a good education, being a housekeeper is a waste of talent!"

According to the contract, the University of Barcelona is number one in Spain, with profound traditions in medicine, humanities, science, politics and business. It ranks around [-] in the world and top [-] in Europe...

After hearing this, Lu Qian smiled, and said, "Mr. He, you can see if you have lost your talent by looking at the column of salary."

Knowledge, no matter how advanced, is for cashing out. Unless you have lofty ideals and aspirations, that is another matter. Otherwise, as long as you pay enough salary, it is no problem for senior talents with doctorates in aviation to sweep the streets!

As long as both parties are willing, watching the excitement has no right to speak.

When Lucy contacted the top housekeeping service company here in Barcelona that specializes in providing rich people, they had a more in-depth discussion on the salary of the housekeeper.

At that time, the person in charge of the housekeeping company recommended several plans to Lu Qian according to the level of the rich, corresponding to the corresponding assets, the lowest was 5000 million, and the highest was one billion. The currency unit was of course the Spanish currency unit, the euro.

Although Lu Qian doesn't know the specific assets of He Xia, but she remembers the conversation between He Xia and those three idiot killers in Pengcheng some time ago, 20 pounds would dare to do something to the boss who is worth tens of billions...

From this, she judged that He Xia, or the He family's assets would not be less than one billion euros, and decisively chose the highest level, that is, Robert!

He Xia flipped to the back of the contract and laughed: "The internship period is half a year, 52 euros a week, and after becoming a full-time employee, 26 euros a week, [-] weeks a year, and an annual salary of [-] euros. "

According to the latest data, even if it is a popular major in the top ten universities in the world, the average annual salary of graduates from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology is 20 US dollars, and so is Harvard, and the highest Princeton University can reach 25 US dollars.

In comparison, Robert's annual salary of 26 euros is really not low, and he has already reached the forefront of top prestigious schools. Of course, this is also related to his self-funded study at the Royal Butler Academy.

Zhou Shiyu glanced curiously, and said with a smile: "My dad hired a housekeeper for a lower price than this, but over the years, the salary has risen, and now it seems to be higher than this."

The top butlers who graduated from the Royal Butler Academy have a minimum annual salary of more than 15 pounds. It is impossible to be lower than this amount, and they will only be given a certain increase according to individual abilities.

"The seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's gate, the housekeeper of our manor is not bad!"

He Xia didn't care about the cost, but just wondered whether the little butler in the capital who was with her parents would also get a salary increase.

He handed the contract to Lawyer Zhang beside him, and said, "See if there is any problem. If there is no problem, bring it to me for signature."

Lawyer Zhang took the contract and nodded, pushed his glasses and walked towards the side room. He knew very well the status of a housekeeper in a rich family, it was definitely a very important position, and it could even be regarded as the rich man's mouthpiece.

Many times, someone's visit is communicated to the rich man through the butler, and many matters of the rich man will also be handled by the butler.

If there is no accident, in the days to come, Robert will slowly integrate into He Xia's family. This is a lifelong job and needs to be grasped carefully.

While chatting, the servants lined up into the villa.

"Mr. He, please meet with everyone."

Robert led the servants to stand in front of He Xia, waved his hands gracefully, and asked the servants to introduce themselves.

A brief meeting, say hello, get acquainted.

After that, Robert officially began to assign the work content of the servants.

The desolate mansion is more than [-] square meters. After He Xia and the others came, it was not very lively. After the housekeeper and servants came in, they became more popular, but it was limited to a few rooms that were enabled. To fill the entire villa, it would take a family!
"Such a big place, how about hiring more than a dozen servants, two or three people would live in such a deserted place... By the way, why are all the servants Filipinos?"

During the brief meeting just now, He Xia learned that every servant is Filipino.

"Because Filipino servants are the most popular!"

Lu Qian said with a smile that she had done some research on this aspect, so she told He Xia the general situation.

Nearly one-tenth of the population of the Philippines works overseas, basically in the service industry. The remittances of these people to the country account for a considerable proportion of the GDP!

Nowadays, no matter in Europe, America or Asia, Filipinos are very popular in the labor market, especially servants serving wealthy families, accompanying patients in hospitals, and personal care for infants and young children. Filipino servants have a very good reputation.

Generations of Filipinos have built a golden brand around the world with a positive, enthusiastic and responsible attitude. Every responsible Filipino will use the same attitude to maintain this reputation!
He Xia nodded. Knowing so much is enough, and he didn't even ask about the salary. The rich people's family history may be unsightly, and their character may not be noble, but there must be no problem with their vision!
The servants entered their roles under Robert's orderly command, and people were walking around, and the villa was full of vitality.

In just half an hour, the changes in the environment, coupled with the man-made atmosphere, made He Xia's sense of alienation in a strange country gradually disappear, and he really felt a little bit at home in the Valentzner Manor.

In the private reception room, there was a pot of hot tea on the small coffee table, and He Xia and Zhou Shiyu were sitting on the sofa.

Finally, when it was time to talk about some private topics, Zhou Shiyu talked about the situation in the laboratory, and finally said: "Some congressman inexplicably obstructed the laboratory's separation from Cambridge College, and it didn't seem to have any effect."

"However, Professor Smith has been urging me again and again, fearing that the night will have long dreams."

He Xia took a sip from the exquisite teacup, speechless in her heart, and said to herself: Miss Zhou, where did you see that it didn't work? Isn't the delay caused by the pressure from there...

According to his understanding, the British Parliament is full of people from aristocratic families. It would be strange for the Lensterma family to have no power in the Parliament after so many years of inheritance, but this is not a problem.

Because the entire British Parliament has too many members!

"I contacted Professor Smith a few days ago. I know the general situation. Don't worry, the opinions of one or two congressmen are not important. Things are progressing smoothly. I will speed up the progress here. After the matter of the island is finalized, the personnel Get in place first, and keep up with the construction and development at the same time.”

At that time, the funds in the pocket were limited, and the confidence to speak was insufficient. Now that more than one billion US dollars and ammunition are loaded and waiting to be fired, many problems are no longer a problem!
At the same time, he was even more looking forward to tomorrow night's yacht reception, because the sponsor was an infrastructure group, and he happened to have construction needs on his side, so he wanted to eat hail from the ice!
After chatting for a while, it was time for lunch, and the servant invited He Xia to the restaurant for dinner.

He Xia stood at the door and looked into the restaurant, eyes full of surprise, a row of dinner plates were placed on the long table, and the delicate enamel dishes were covered with silver lids.

"Remember, the knives and forks must be placed like this. The chopsticks are on the chopsticks pillow here. Keep a good distance. The error cannot exceed one centimeter. You are using the wrong napkin. The lunch is seventeen to twenty inches. This is afternoon tea Replace the twelve-inch napkins you used!"

The butler, Robert, is teaching the servants how to set the table.

He Xia didn't make a sound to disturb, but walked to the side and watched seriously.

In the past, when he saw on the Internet that before the conference, when the service staff used the ropes to measure the nameplates of the tables, chairs and water cups, he would always make a disdainful voice in his heart, hey, what's the use of this?

But when I enjoy it, I realize that the servant's good intentions are really a kind of enjoyment.

When the tableware is carefully designed and placed next to the dinner plate, and the exquisite napkins are folded into a beautiful flower, the sense of ceremony and visual enjoyment are enhanced at the same time, which is a kind of joy in life.

As for the wasted time, manpower and material resources, it is not important at all. Providing jobs is one of the social responsibilities that the rich should fulfill!

"Mr. He, I'm sorry, the time is short, and there are some negligence in some places."

Robert turned around and saw He Xia standing aside, bowing slightly, apologizing for the servant's careless mistake.

The servants stood aside with apologetic faces. They had received rigorous training before taking up the job, but they certainly couldn't compare with the rigor of the Royal Butler Academy. At least in terms of choosing napkins, the training instructor didn't mention it...

He Xia waved his hand slightly, and said: "It's not bad to be able to do this in such a short time. In less than an hour, the restaurant was cleaned up and delicious food was cooked. I was very surprised. How did you do it?"

He Xia felt that there was not enough time at all. After all, it is not enough to have a kitchen to make so many things. Where do the ingredients come from?
"Mr. He, you think too highly of me." Robert pointed out the window: "Look..."

He Xia looked in the direction Robert pointed, and saw that three men in chef uniforms were lifting a delicate trolley into the van. The white van had the words "Lasarte" printed on its side and Michelin stars printed on the top. symbols of.

"LSert restaurant was awarded three stars by Michelin in [-]. It has been working hard to maintain its standard over the years. It is the only three-star Michelin restaurant in Barcelona. The complex and diverse tastes are the characteristics of this restaurant. You can take the dining experience Tell me so I can find the right chef for you."

Robert spoke slowly from the side, speaking neither fast nor slow, making people very comfortable, and at the same time He Xia pulled away the chair.

"Then I must have a good taste."

He Xia took a deep breath, and slowly realized the joy of life of those rich men. It feels great that someone has thought of everything for him, and it is better than what he thought!
At lunch, He Xia sat at the head of the long dining table, and Zhou Shiyu sat opposite as a guest. Under He Xia's strong request, several employees who came abroad with him and the housekeeper Robert sat on both sides.

"Mr. He, I don't even know what etiquette to use when dining with you. It's too embarrassing for me."

Robert held his napkin cautiously. His strict education made him understand the division of classes. A housekeeper is a housekeeper, a master is a master, and a servant is a servant. The hierarchy is clear!
In this regard, Lawyer Zhang, Yang Zicheng and Lu Qian don't have so many rules and regulations, they are relatively natural...

He Xia had already put on the napkin and started eating under the guidance of the servants. After hearing what Robert said, he smiled and said, "Do you think I look like a rigid old man or an old woman with a weird temper? At least the first meal we met, you should Eat with me."

He Xia spoke Portuguese, which only Robert and a few servants could understand.

Robert was so surprised that he opened his mouth slightly. He had been communicating with He Xia in Chinese, but he didn't expect that the other party could speak Portuguese more fluently than him.

After all, he is Spanish, there is still a little difference between Spanish and Portuguese, and he has been in the UK in recent years, so there are not many opportunities to use his mother tongue.

Language is a catalyst for closer relationships.

Robert had a smile on his face that he used to show when he saw his family members, quickly put on the napkin, nodded and said: "Mr. He, I believe that no amount of etiquette can compare to listening to you."

"That's it!"

A meal, the guest and host enjoy.

Almost everyone was talking and laughing during the dinner, except for Zhou Shiyu, once she was in a multi-person social place, she turned on the autistic mode, only listening but not talking.

"Robert, the overall area of ​​the manor is so large, there are no other functional facilities except villas and fountains, it seems a bit monotonous, can some facilities be added?"

He Xia wiped her mouth with a napkin and said

"This manor has been idle for more than a year, and it really needs to be tidied up."

Robert just had a symbolic meal and finished his meal long ago, then said: "If you have any ideas, you can tell me, and I will help you complete them, or you need a design team, there is no problem."

He Xia thought for a while and said, "I want a garden that can be spread out, mainly using low shrubs that are no higher than the waist, and I also want to build a private horse farm. I wonder if I can satisfy it?"

"Private horse farm..." Robert thought for a moment, and said: "At present, I only know that the total area of ​​the manor is [-] acres. I don't know the specific land occupation pattern, but with such a large area, it is enough to build a horse farm within [-] acres. gone."

Robert added: "This area is enough for riding a horse. If it's just a stable for feeding horses, one acre is enough!"

Fifty acres have 20 square meters. If divided according to standard rules, a space with a width of 500 meters and a height of 400 meters can be formed, which is almost equivalent to the size of [-] football fields. It is indeed enough to ride a horse!

"Okay, let's use the standard of fifty acres. The area of ​​the garden does not need to be too large. It is a little closer to the villa, which is convenient for taking a walk after dinner. It is best to connect to the beach!"

He Xia was very satisfied with the spacious manor. As long as the place is big enough, there are too many things that can be done, and then said: "Considering the traffic problem, a helipad is needed, and it needs to be fully furnished."

Robert understood, and gracefully took out a notebook from his pocket to record it.

What is a complete set?

With a helipad, it is definitely not used for cattle herding. It must be equipped with a helicopter. With a helicopter, a driver is needed. As for maintenance and other work, it can be done by the helicopter manufacturer.

"That's all I can think of for the time being. You need to understand a little bit first. It is estimated that some buildings need local approval. Don't worry about the construction team!"

"As you said, Mr. He, both the construction of the helipad and the racecourse need to submit an application. Although it will definitely be approved, this process must go through."

Robert closed his notebook and said with a smile.

"Okay, I will trouble you with these trivial matters!"

He Xia wanted to get up, but the servant at the side immediately stepped forward and pulled out the chair for him, feeling really uncomfortable.
