Lisko's American life
Chapter 152 148. Candidate for Butler (Thanks to book friend 2335 for the 100-point reward)
The matter was settled after a few simple talks. Although Lisko holds 75% of the shares in the cultural company, Lubo holds 25%.But this is not indispensable to him, the symbol of his holdings is greater than the significance.
When Lisko decided to sell 25% to Haas, he immediately agreed.
This writer at their level is 8 to 2 with the cultural company, and the 20% is taken into the company, and 75% of the two% is Lisko's profit.
The reason why everyone joins cultural companies is that someone can negotiate with publishers and film and television companies. After all, writers don't want to get copper odor, and their status has become higher.
Haas saw that Lisko and Lubo were full of sincerity, and he was willing to join. He joined the company just because he wanted someone to handle chores and have his own writing autonomy. He didn't want to be forced to write about himself because he had no inspiration for a while. The things he likes and the publication of manuscripts of poor standards affect his reputation and status.
After dealing with things here, Li Sko also went to the mentor’s castle to say goodbye. This time he was the only one. Haas was busy discussing the new book with Lubo, but he did not follow him.
In the castle, the tutor did not go out today. Yesterday's hangover caused him to wake up early in the morning, so he simply rested at home. After all, he is old and has privileges everywhere.
"Tutor." Lisko went to the study unimpeded all the way, watching the tutor with reading glasses studying ancient books.
"Lee? Did you escape the party again?" When Berman saw Lisko coming over, his first reaction was to be happy, and then he remembered that at this time he should be in the hotel to attend the gathering invitations of the writers. .
"Hey." Li Sko showed a silly appearance in front of his mentor, scratching his head, trying to get through.
"You!" Berman didn't know how to reprimand this proud disciple. Li Ske was indeed brilliant in literature, and he was the greatest pride among his students, but this person who didn't like to get together and liked quietness couldn't change it.
He has also said how many times, Liske promised well, but when he turned around, he still went his own way. In the American literary world, you can never stand firm by writing and writing. Getting to know people and gathering firewood is also a big reason.
But what can I do with this disciple?In fact, Berman agrees with his disciples in his heart. Only by keeping his heart pure can he write moving articles.
He couldn't help it, he thought the same way when he was young, but in the big pot of society, he had to participate in some things.
However, Lisko has so many seniors to help him, even if he arrogantly disdain to bow his head, it has no effect.
Berman walked out from behind the table and slapped Lisko. This disciple who worried him, luckily he could move for a few years, and no one could move Lisko when he was still there.
"Ready to go back?" Berman, assisted by Lisko, walked to the library sofa and lay down comfortably.
Although his body is not yet incapable of walking, the disciples want to support him with their filial piety, and he can't help but follow them every time, and he also likes the feeling of being taken care of.
The old man is lonely, and every time the disciples come over, he and Mary are very happy.
"Yes, ready to go back." Liske sat down opposite the instructor.,
The reason for Lisko’s visit this time, Berman can easily guess. The salon has participated in it, and he is impatient to be here. Although it is very busy and lively, he does not like it. The traffic and steel jungle here , It made him not so comfortable.
After only a few days, he missed the fresh air in his ranch, the vast pastures that he could see when he raised his head, the hordes of beef cattle, and the cowboys riding horses and whips.
"All right, it's okay to go back," Berman knew his disciple's character, and didn't say much.
"By the way, you asked me to find the housekeeper and bodyguard you were looking for. Do you want to bring it back together?" Berman suddenly remembered something. Last time Li Sko had no contacts in this area, so I asked him to introduce him. The choice was also found suitable from many people.
Speaking of this, Berman took out his portfolio from the desk drawer in front of the sofa. He has been trying to give Lisko these days, but there has been no suitable opportunity.
"This is the information I chose, you look at it." Berman is very concerned, he knows the black and white of American society, but he is not like his disciples, knows nothing, thinks the world is not so ugly.
Bodyguards and butlers are related to the wealth and life of the rich. Of course, you must choose them carefully. If they are interested in money, not to mention property, their lives are in danger, because they are the people closest to you every day.
His disciples trusted him and left this matter to himself. Of course, Berman had a lot of heart.
Lisko opened the portfolio and there were only three people's materials in it. This was selected by the teacher. The first file is the housekeeper. The housekeeper is the most important person in the castle. He should be responsible for the recruitment and procurement of all castle employees. Let Lisko Live a convenient and easy life.
It can also make Li Sike gradually get used to the lifestyle of the rich. They are the most powerful subordinates of the rich. Sometimes the housekeeper will take care of the wealth of the rich. Once hired, the professional standards require them to be loyal.
The information Lisko holds in his hands is a housekeeper. This person Lisko also knows, Payne, the youngest son of Boll, the steward of the Swan Castle. Lisko had a relationship with him in the early days and lived in the castle. I also heard of him when I was in China.
"Pen is Boll's son. Boll has worked in my castle for a lifetime, so don't worry about loyalty. Penn has excellent grades and went to the Netherlands International Butler Academy, which is rich in butlers. He has now graduated and just happened to touch him. Hiring on your castle."
Li Sike looked at the information above and found out that he has achieved excellent results. He has won a lot of competitions and certificates. Li Sike feels that he is a bit overkill in hiring.
However, he fully understands why Payne is willing to be a housekeeper, because his father does this. It is difficult for a person with no family background to make an appearance in society. To be a housekeeper for the rich will not only cost a lot of commissions, but also have a lot of knowledge and contacts, like Boll is now doing things, and some people in power, large and small, also know him. Although he relies on Berman's background, everyone, big and small, will give him some face.
And Payne is a knowledgeable person, don't worry about any bad thoughts.
Li Ske thought for a while and finalized it.
