Chapter 510 The Emerald Russian Butler (2)

The first meeting with Lin Yan, who was in his early twenties, was also the interview process of the steward of the governor's residence impressed Pushkin. After standing for a while because of the huge shock, Lin Yan asked him to sit down. Pushkin reacted and sat in front of Lin Yan's desk with some shame. Lin Yan got straight to the point and asked Pushkin's views on the internal affairs management of the governor's residence at that time. Lin Yan's questions made Pushkin come back to his senses and found confidence. Pushkin began to talk freely.

Pushkin's confidence is for a reason. Pushkin has been in Fei Lengcui for a while, but to be honest, the rich and big families in Fei Lengcui do not have much deep understanding of the concept of housekeepers. There are many rich people in Fei Lengcui, many with big families and big businesses, and many with servants. But in Pushkin's view, the historical and cultural heritage of these rich people, these rich people, these families are obviously superficial, and their living habits and way of thinking are basically still at the level of the big landlords in rural areas and urban industrial and commercial nouveau riche in the Tsarist Russian era.

Even if some people have a large manor and have more money in their pockets, their essence is still rough and they can never be like a real aristocrat. If the life of the aristocrat is compared to the delicate and exquisite porcelain produced in the country, the living conditions of these people are at most a clay pottery with the shape of porcelain. Even if the pottery is inlaid with gold and diamonds, it is still a clay pottery and can never be turned into porcelain. Pushkin doesn't even need to look with his eyes. Just close his eyes and touch it with his hands, you can know it clearly.

In addition to himself, Pushkin did not think that in Fei Lengcui, he could find another real housekeeper or housekeeping expert, a real housekeeping expert, and a person who plays the role of chief servant in a certain house. Not everyone can do it. This industry, on the world, whether in Russia, France, or in the UK, has strict industry standards passed down from a long history. This industry standard is to follow the court etiquette standards to details, precipitation and inheritance of honor, and is a label of noble blood. This is the same as the wealthy and noble families in the world, but their

The fundamental reason why the butler is almost the same. Pushkin's ancestors, as the Russian aristocrat of the Tsar era, naturally had deep foundation and accumulation in this regard. What is more important is that in the years Pushkin was the "village chief", what he accumulated in that special political atmosphere and sensitive environment made him more confident in taking on the role of the steward of the official residence of the Fei Lengcui. In Pushkin's view, this position is simply him. Even in the whole Fei Lengcui, no, even in the whole world, there are probably not many people who have double backgrounds and are more suitable for this position than him.

The first impression of the Governor's residence, Pushkin felt that this place was more like a military camp than a "home". From the perspective of a qualified butler, the confident Pushkin put forward a lot of opinions. In a brief conversation with Lin Yan, Pushkin also found that this King of Light also had a very, indescribable demeanor - this kind of demeanor is indescribable. At least, when Pushkin criticized all the internal affairs of the Governor's residence with a very implicit language, the legendary powerful King of Light just sat helplessly behind the desk and rubbed his face with one hand, with a faint smile on his face, and there was no displeasure. This made Pushkin breathe a sigh of relief. This King of Light could tolerate his little person criticizing and commenting on some shortcomings of the Governor's residence when he first met him.

This means that this young and indecent King of Light has a very tolerant and broad-minded heart. Although it has been said that King of Light has iron-blooded means and personality, and can be determined to die with one word, at least, it is external and internal. This King of Light has always been generous and does not have the kind of irritability and arrogance of being arrogant when successful at a young age. In the eyes of this young man, Pushkin saw a kind of broadness and indifference. If he really wanted to be the housekeeper of the governor's official residence, the owner's personality would be better, so that he would not have to be too miserable when he made a small mistake. Don't be like in that high-end villa village before, he was trembling and cautious all day long. He who leaked a little of the leader in his sleep at night would worry about when the blue uniforms of the Security Committee knocked on the door. Such days were really not something that human beings could live. Now that he was old, he couldn't stand such stimulation.

"It seems that I can't find someone who is more suitable for this position than you!" - Lin Yan's words made Pushkin enter the official residence of the governor and became an important role in the official residence of the governor. The news that a Russian foreigner became the housekeeper of the King of Light caused a great sensation in Fei Lengcui. Of course, from the day he entered the official residence of the governor, his identity was no longer a Russian citizen, but a Fei Lengcui citizen. Pushkin didn't care about this. How many extravagant old guys had for life? After experiencing the various things of the Soviet era, he looked down on the domestic situation.

After serving "great revolutionary leaders" like Khrushchev and Brezhnev, the elderly who have served authentic Russian cuisine, have nothing to do when they are old and become a veritable proletariat. What else do Pushkin have to ask for? Feilencui is a good place. Pushkin thinks he can retire here. If the situation in Russia improves more than ten or twenty years later, maybe he will go back and take a look and treat it as a travel. If he dies, he can ask to bury his ashes in the Xia capital. By then, the Grand Governor will not reject such a small request from his old man who is about to be buried.

Pushkin stayed at the Governor's residence and served as the role of the steward of the Governor's residence with peace of mind - a washed snow-white shirt, a black or white vest, a black bow tie, a black tuxedo, straight black trousers and shiny black leather shoes, a trace of hair and always straight body and a polite manner. From the first day after entering the Governor's residence, Pushkin appeared in front of everyone with such an image that it would not change even if the sky fell.

The first thing Pushkin did when he came to the official residence of the Supervisor was to clearly divide and identify the responsibilities and division of responsibilities of the servants and officials and civil servants of the Supervisor who assisted Lin Yan in the official residence and the official residence of Fei Lengcui and civil servants who assisted Lin Yan in the official residence. In addition to the work of the official residence without obvious changes, the official residence of the Supervisor was separated from the two systems of the inner and outer residence. As the steward of the official residence, Pushkin was responsible for the inner and outer residence and commanded all the servants and officers in the official residence. The secretariat of the official residence was generally responsible for the affairs of the foreign government, one assisted Lin Yan in the official residence and the other assisted Lin Yan in the official residence. The efficiency of the Supervisor's official residence was greatly improved.

After the division of the internal and external offices of the governor's official residence, Pushkin personally selected work uniforms for the servants and staff of the inner office - basically like him, both men and women, all black and white tones were matched with no fancy. Then, Pushkin personally taught etiquette classes for these servants and staff, which made everyone know how much of the old man in his fifties had in his stomach. Pushkin's etiquette classes were all-encompassing. His belly contained almost the entire medieval European court and aristocratic etiquette, among which he was particularly proficient in oriental etiquette, even those in South America or Africa were the least of those in South America or Africa.

The most common and rare etiquettes are also known to him. In addition to these, including the location where each of the precious items in the official residence should be placed, the precautions for the maids in the official residence to wash and iron clothes, how to wash clothes, how to iron them, how to stack them, how to receive guests from the official residence, how to prepare dinner, where should Lin Yan place the newspapers when he eats breakfast, what kind of measure should be taken when talking to outsiders, the manners, and even the cosmetics used by the maids, etc., are all within the scope and strict requirements of Pushkin's professors.

Less than a month after Pushkin arrived at the official residence of the governor, the official residence almost changed. Every detail within the scope of the responsibilities of the official residence, from the house repair, gardening and sorting of the official residence, to the work distribution, supervision and acceptance of each servant, to the contacts of various expenses in the official residence and external merchants, everything was arranged by Pushkin. In someone's words, under the management of that official residence, it was like a smooth machine, and everything was in order.

This person is naturally Fan Chenzhou, the chief of staff of Fei Lengcui. Since Pushkin became the chief manager of the Governor's official residence, Fan Chenzhou has found various excuses in the Governor's official residence. The history of Fan Chenzhou indulging in the Governor's official residence is over. The Yang family has left a lot of good goods in the underground storage room of the Governor's official residence. Before Pushkin came, it was almost a winery that was open to Fan Chenzhou for free. After Pushkin came, Fan Chenzhou wanted to come and cheat again to eat.

To cheat, you have to face Pushkin's somewhat old-fashioned face. Family finance is an important responsibility of the housekeeper. The fine wines in the underground reserve warehouse were sorted by Pushkin according to the age, origin, and categories. Of course, the keys were held in Pushkin's hands. For a government official who could use his tongue to distinguish the nuances of Bordeaux wines from 1834 and 1835, our Chief of Staff could no longer use them.

Everything in the official residence of the Ministry, from garden style to Lin Yan's food, clothing, housing and transportation, has always been the hot topics and goals that the rich people of Fei Lengcui and those big families imitated and sought after. This time, the new style brought by Pushkin, the new official family to the official residence of the Ministry of the Ministry, naturally set off a whirlwind in Fei Lengcui...
