I was a god in the 18th century

Chapter 50 Servant’s KPI

If the maid in charge of cleaning the cloakroom saw Xia Qingdai, she might take a guess at "God".

Because the clothes Xia Qingdai was wearing at the moment were the ones she hung up herself, and were prepared by the master for "God".

But it is a pity that this maid's status cannot be dazzled in front of her master, so she naturally has no chance to meet Xia Qingdai.

And the servants who had the opportunity to meet Xia Qingdai, such as Paul, were not responsible for cleaning Xia Qingdai's suite.

Due to such a mistake, no one in the castle could guess Xia Qingdai's origin.

When Xia Qingdai followed Owen into the restaurant, Martin's eyes clearly lit up, and he was particularly attentive to help Xia Qingdai pull out a chair next to him.

Ever since he first saw Xia Qingdai last night, Martin was astonished.

This unique beauty has a sense of mystery for no reason. I have seen many faces with a high nose and deep eyes. Xia Qingdai's three-dimensional appearance also has soft facial features, which is even more attractive.

After Xia Qingdai thanked Martin, she did not sit in the seat he had opened, but planned to sit next to Brutner's wife.

She and Brutner's wife were the only two women in the room, so she thought they would naturally sit together.

But when Owen came to his last seat, he pulled out a chair to his right and motioned for Xia Qingdai to sit here.

According to the custom at this time, the hostess would sit at the head of the banquet and the male host would sit at the bottom of the table. The most important male guest sits to the right of the hostess, while the most important female guest sits to the right of the male host.

Nowadays, there are only male masters in Fucui Villa, and there is no female master for the time being. Owen can sit in the first or last seat if he wants.

He chose to sit at the end of the table and specially arranged for Xia Qingdai to sit on his right.

Martin paused for a moment when he saw Owen's movements, and seemed to understand something in his heart, and his smile couldn't help but be a little forced.

The Brutners also exchanged glances with each other, seeming to understand the mysterious cousin's position in Fortress Villa.

There were only two people who knew nothing about the undercurrents at the table. One was Gauss, who was born into a worker-peasant family at the age of twelve and had little understanding of the social etiquette of these upper classes.

The other one, Xia Qingdai, was naturally squeezed out of most of her time by her studies and could not brush up on matters related to the eighteenth century.

During the dinner, Mrs. Brutner asked Xia Qingdai where she came from.

Xia Qingdai smiled calmly: "Come from afar."

Mrs. Brütner raised her eyebrows slightly, but did not pursue the question.

After dinner, everyone moved to the reception room with a fireplace, which is the large living room on the first floor.

Martin proposed a game of cards, but Mrs. Brüttner declined the offer because she felt she had no extra money for gambling.

The most important thing is that there is a math teacher, a math assistant, and a little math genius here, and the remaining owner is a rich man who owns the villa.

Mrs. Brütner needed only a little analysis to realize that playing cards with them was asking for abuse.

She invited Xia Qingdai to walk around the house to eat and let the men play their cards.

Xia Qingdai is not willing to do this kind of thing. She has not finished writing the plan for servant assessment!

So it was Mrs. Brütner who was walking alone in the spacious living room, while three gentlemen and a young boy gathered together to play counting cards.

Xia Qingdai went back to her room to get some pen and paper that she had not yet finished writing. She sat on the floor on the wool blanket and continued to write the plan.

In the middle, Mrs. Brutner also came to watch curiously for a while, and asked her strangely if she was painting.

Because in her eyes, these square words were like paintings. Xia Qingdai told her that she was not painting, but writing about her hometown.

"They really look like a painting." Mrs. Brüttner sighed. She was not really interested in these, she just asked casually.

Xia Qingdai smiled and said nothing. She had almost finished writing her plan and had no time to chat with others now.

When the clock struck eight o'clock, Xia Qingdai finally put down her quill.

At this time, Bruttner and his wife were sitting on the piano bench together, playing the game of four-hand strumming, while Gauss and Owen were sitting on the sofa. Although they each held a book in their hands, they were actually Watching Xia Qingdai writing.

Seeing her stop, the young boy Gauss couldn't help but said: "This is the word for heaven."

Xia Qingdai smiled: "This is a character from the East, called Chinese characters."

"Chinese characters?" Gauss asked curiously.

Xia Qingdai took the written plan and sat on the couch. She asked the two of them to sit over together. Then she turned her head and said to Owen: "I think the servants in this castle are too casual, so I made one." About their plans."

Owen immediately praised: "Oh, I would like to hear the details."

Xia Qingdai asked him: "How do the servants in the castle get paid now?"

Irving gave a brief answer, which was roughly to give different salaries according to different levels. Housekeepers earned the highest salary, followed by valets, and the lowest paid were cleaning maids who did menial tasks.

Xia Qingdai had counted before that there were eleven servants in the castle. Among them, Shirley and John, a pair of kindergarten-age children, could basically be ignored.

The housekeeper was Lim. After Mrs. John entered the castle, she went to the kitchen to help cook.

The two young male servants have now been promoted to be Owen's personal servants, responsible for taking turns keeping watch at night and cleaning Owen's master bedroom.

There are also two middle-aged male servants who do menial work. One is responsible for raising and driving horses and is a groom, and the other is mainly responsible for sweeping the courtyard.

There are three young maids left, one is the cook, one is responsible for lighting the fire and sweeping, and the third is responsible for tidying up the suite dedicated to the "god".

Although these three young maids have different jobs, they have one thing in common. That is, they are all young girls waiting to be married. They work as maids mainly to earn a dowry for themselves.

When they find a suitable husband and save enough dowry money, they will quit their jobs as maids and concentrate on raising their husbands and children.

Therefore, the biggest expense for young maids is the cost of clothing.

Although they are maids, they will try their best to dress themselves up beautifully, hoping that one day they can fly on a branch and become a phoenix.

After listening to Owen's introduction, Xia Qingdai pointed to the paper on which she wrote the plan and said: "Well, it seems that the servants in the castle are originally paid according to different levels? Their salaries should be different. Bar?"

Owen replied: "Slightly different."

Xia Qingdai continued: "I think so. There are so many people trapped and starving due to the snowstorm outside. And the manpower in the castle is not enough, so why not recruit some more servants?"

Then everyone's salary will be adjusted again, and the basic salary will be lowered. Those who are down-to-earth and willing to work will get more, those who cheat and cheat will get less, those with higher grades will get more, and those with lower grades will get less.

In addition to the fixed salary, an additional performance reward is added, which is evaluated according to certain standards to achieve the purpose of healthy internal competition. "

If any modern social animal came to listen, they would know that this is the most evil KPI assessment!
