Chapter 518 Chips (Leader Plus 6)
"In addition, it's not like other big restaurants that only offer a few main course options every day. That restaurant offers a wide variety of main courses every day, and their red wine is quite good, especially the Ormere red wine."
At this point, Baisen paused, and deliberately asked Xifa: "Do you know how much a bottle of Ormere produced in 1330 costs?"
Xifa smiled and asked, "Do I have to know?"
Bison said seriously: "Yes, you must know. A bottle of Ormere from 1330 is worth 126 pounds."
"Sifa, you can't be my child forever. One day, you need to start your own family, and you need to understand every expenditure of your own, so that you can rationally allocate your resources and use the smallest expenditure as much as possible. reap the greatest benefits."
"You may not believe it, but I know everything about our family's expenses."
Baisen said calmly: "For example, the salaries of the servants. Our butler, Mr. Benson, receives an annual salary of 120 pounds from me every year. Ms. Kunna's annual salary is a little less, and her annual salary is only 45 pounds."
"In addition, Matthew, who served you before but is now my personal servant, has an annual salary of 30 pounds. The servant who is responsible for receiving guests at home and serving the table has an annual salary of 22 pounds."
"Your sister's maid earns 18 pounds a year, and the second-class maid earns 12 pounds. Their annual salary is the same as that of menial servants."
"There are cooks, kitchen helpers, kitchen maids, house nurses, grooms, gardeners, and laundry maids, whose annual wages are £35, £15, £12, £28, £25, £20, and £12."
Hearing Baisen recite these servants and their annual salary backwards, Xifa was surprised from the bottom of his heart. He thought that these were taken care of by his mother, and Baisen would not go out of his way to understand them, let alone remember such details.
See Weizhi's works.
Bison even knew the servant's fee so clearly, which shows his care and prudence.
Next to him, Anilu said with some complaints: "Sifa is still too early to start a family, why are you telling him this now?"
"He will have a family sooner or later. I want him to know that it is not easy to be the head of the family."
In a blink of an eye.
Intis Serenzo Restaurant has arrived.
Xifa's family got out of the carriage one after another, and when they arrived at the door, they handed over coats, hats, canes and other things to waiters in red vests.
Adhering to the luxurious style of Intis, even the door of this restaurant is extremely ornately decorated, and the walls inside reflect golden light. When Xifa comes to the hall, it feels like being in a vault.
As expected of Intis Restaurant, he likes luxury and pursues gorgeousness. Xifa looks casually, and can always see oil paintings hanging on the wall and marble statues placed in appropriate positions. Among them, golden golden objects can be seen almost everywhere.
In the restaurant, a band was playing a beautiful melody with a violin, and the Xifa family was led to a round dining table by the window.
The waiter brought the menu and wine list, and it seemed like it was the first time he had come, but Bai Sen said skillfully as if he had been here many times: "We want braised dagoya beef short ribs, black truffle beef liver Mushrooms, Intis-style foie gras”
The baron paused, smiled and said to his wife: "The raw material of the foie gras here comes from Bonas Farm in the Champagne province of the Kingdom of Intis. It has a strong taste. You have to taste it."
After Baisen finished talking about the main course, appetizers, and desserts, he ordered another bottle of Ormere red wine. Of course, it was not from 1330.
Then, while waiting for the food to be served, Baisen and Anilu chatted in low voices, while younger brother Chaum whispered to Harribel, and adopted daughter Pasha sat quietly and looked around curiously from time to time.
Xifa leaned back in his chair, casually observing the guests in the restaurant. Suddenly, he was inspired and looked towards the gate.
A tall figure walked in from the gate. It was a lady with a good figure. She was wearing an olive green long skirt. The high waistline design of the long skirt made her proportions look excellent.
She doesn't look old, she should be a young lady, but she is wearing an old-fashioned black bonnet, which is covered by the hanging fine check tulle, preventing Sifer from seeing her face.
She seemed to sense Xifa's gaze, although she couldn't see her eyes clearly through the veil, but Xifa felt a gaze fell on his face, he smiled slightly, and then looked away as if nothing had happened.
He remembered that in noble etiquette, it was impolite to stare at the same woman for a long time.
After the lady disappeared at the top of the stairs, Xifa saw Baisen get up suddenly, then left the dining table, and greeted someone: "What a coincidence, Mr. Macht, I didn't expect to meet you here."
Xifa looked over, and it turned out that several people came in from outside the gate. It seemed that they were also a family, but they had fewer members, only a couple and a girl.
The man named Macht by Byson is a typical Loen gentleman. He is in his forties, with black hair, dark brown eyes, and deep contours. The hairline is in the position it should be at his age.
Standing next to him was a woman, probably his wife. As for the girl in the sky blue dress, with long dark green wavy hair and dark brown eyes, it should be his daughter.
"That's Congressman Macht. Their family also lives on Boklund Street. This congressman once served in the army and then joined politics after retiring. He is now a member of the Kingdom's House of Commons, and the lady next to him is Liana. Born into a barrister's family, he provided Congressman Macht with a lot of political resources."
Mother Anilu introduced Xifa in a low voice: "See that girl who is about the same age as Belle? That's Macht's daughter. Miss Hazel looks like a nice girl, what do you think?"
Xifa smiled perfunctorily and said, "It's really eye-catching."
At the same time, he thought that Baisen came here to eat probably to create a coincidence, and it seemed that he had spent a lot of effort for his own political ambitions.
At this time, the baron led the Macht family over, and Sifa hurriedly followed his mother to get up. Before he had time to say hello to the MP, he heard MP Macht talking to him.
"I heard from Sir this morning that you just joined the navy this year, and now you are a major. You are very capable, Mr. Sifa. If I were as good as you when I was young, maybe I would be an admiral of the kingdom now."
Saying this, Macht laughed.
Xifa responded humbly to the congressman's words, and at the same time noticed that his wife, Ms. Liana, was looking at him, but their daughter's expression was flat, but her eyes were full of arrogance. She just glanced at herself and saw looked elsewhere.
After a few words between Bison and Macht, the member of the House of Commons said: "We plan to hold a dance next weekend night. If Sir, you are willing to attend, I believe the dance will be much more lively."
Bison laughed and readily agreed.
Macht looked at Sifa again: "At that time, I hope that Mr. Sifa can also participate."
Before Xifa could respond, Baisen said, "He will."
Xifa could only smile and nodded, knowing that he had become a political bargaining chip in Byson's hands.
