Chapter 539: Zhongcheng relies on benefits and favors

Song's mother nodded and said, "Okay."

Shen Xia looked at the sixty or seventy servants standing in the yard.

Shen Xia looked over and saw that there were half men and half women.

More than half of them were bought recently, and only a small half were brought by Song's mother and Shen Xia before.

With so many people suddenly coming together, things become quite chaotic.

There is no housekeeper yet.

Song Yun and Song Ming are about to take up their posts, while Song Jin is in the factory.

Song's mother is old and has long stopped taking care of the household.

Xiaotian and Xiaowu are still young and never care about these things.

So the job of housekeeper fell to her.

But she always makes arrangements.

But I can't do everything by myself, otherwise I will be exhausted.

Xiaotian, Xiaowu and Song's mother were all sitting in the main hall.

Shen Xia looked at Su Yao and introduced her to everyone: "This is my good friend Su Yao, Yi Yi and their godmother. She will live with us from now on, in the yard next to our mother."

Su Yao looked at Mother Song and said to Xiao Wu and the others: "Hello, Auntie. Hello, everyone."

Xiaotian and Xiaowu just glanced at Su Yao, and were curious about when their sister had such a friend.

My sister usually doesn't make close friends with outsiders. What kind of friend is this?

Xiaowu was curious.

Mother Song looked at Su Yao and smiled, "Miss Su, just stay in the mansion and treat it as your own home."

"Well, thank you, auntie." Su Yao said politely.

Shen Xia looked at Su Yao: "Ayao, you sit down first."

Shen Xia walked to the door of the hall and looked at the people in the yard.

Cleared his throat.

"Everyone in the mansion is here. There are newcomers and old ones. I think no matter they are new or old, they have just arrived in a new place and are not very familiar with it yet. So let me tell you who the owners of the Princess' Mansion are?"

"First, the old lady, then me, and then the master Song Jiang, he is not in the capital."

"Then there's the Second Master, Song Ming, who everyone knows."

"Third Master Song Jin is in a processing workshop in the suburbs. Fourth Master Song Yun and Fifth Master Song Yu,"

Speaking of this, Shen Xia was thinking about how to introduce Xiaotian.

After hesitating for a while, I thought of it.

"Then it's Master Liu. Xiaotian is my mother's godson,"

"Finally, everyone is curious about who Su Yao is. She is my lifelong friend and the godmother of the young lady and the young master."

I have to say that servants are still curious about gossip. Has anyone really guessed which master Su Yao belongs to?

Anyway, there are all kinds of ideas, mainly because Su Yao is an unmarried woman who lives in the backyard of the mansion.

She's not some cousin of the Song family.

So everyone is talking about it.

Finally, I heard from the princess,

Everyone was surprised, thinking that the princess was such a good friend.

She is also the godmother of the young masters.

Shen Xia didn't care about everyone's reaction, and continued: "The ones I just mentioned are all the masters of the mansion, and their food, clothing and expenses are all the same standard."

"I think everyone has been bought in for a few days and doesn't know their monthly salary yet, so I'll talk about everyone's treatment here."

Even though it's a good treatment, isn't everyone very excited?

why?

Because the elderly all knew that the Song family was well treated and they were aware of it, so they were not excited.

The newcomers are not excited and feel like they have been bought.

They are members of the master's family. How good can the treatment of servants in that mansion be?

But the indentures are in the hands of the master, and life or death depends on the master's words.

"If you don't work in the mansion, you will have four days off a month. As for wages, the housekeeper and accountant in the mansion will receive ten taels of silver a month, and the first-class maids and servants who serve closely in each courtyard will receive five taels of silver."

"Second-class maids and servants get three taels of silver a month, and the others get two taels of silver a month. In addition, the kitchen manager gets five taels of silver a month, the chef with good cooking skills gets four taels of silver, and the others get two taels of silver."

The originally quiet courtyard became extremely excited after Shen Xia finished speaking.

Although the old man felt that he had earned a lot of money in the countryside before.

The treatment was already very good, and I didn’t expect it to get even better. How can I not be excited?

And the newcomers couldn’t believe their ears?

This is real?

So much moon silver.

The salary in other mansions is not that high. Generally, the salary of a third-class maid or servant is one or two taels of silver.

The second class is only two taels of silver, and the third class is only three taels of silver.

It turns out that the wages in this princess's mansion are so high.

It has to be said that even Ming Ye who was standing next to him was surprised by this treatment. His previous salary was only three taels of silver a month, while Butler Ming only earned five taels of silver a month.

Now he earns ten taels of silver a month, which is equivalent to one hundred and twenty taels a year. One hundred and twenty taels is enough to buy an ordinary small courtyard in West City in one year.

This sudden pie was so unexpected that he couldn't believe it.

He really should send some good tea to Butler Ming.

Thank him for giving me this opportunity.

In fact, he thought that Butler Ming would ask Ming Guan to come.

Unexpectedly, the official Ming asked him to come.

Shen Xia wants to give everyone the best treatment.

No matter how much you say, it is useless. What matters most is whether it is implemented in practice.

The so-called loyalty is entirely based on benefits and favors. It is not realistic to expect others to be loyal from the bottom of their hearts when you have nothing.

She wants to learn from a certain Donglai, where the benefits are good, the treatment is good, and everything is good. There is only a cleaner in there, and everyone wants to squeeze in.

One job, tens of thousands of resumes.

Everyone wants this hard-earned job.

You will only cherish it more after you get it.

Afraid of being replaced.

Not to mention whether they will work seriously.

Work is like your significant other. No one wants to let go of the excellent one.

She let everyone know that the welfare and treatment of the Princess's Mansion are incomparable to any other place.

There is one who is a little braver.

He asked, "Princess, four days off a month, is that the same for everyone?"

Because he was a third-class servant, he wanted to know this question.

After he asked, he was still a little nervous.

Shen Xia glanced at him and said, "Well, everyone is the same during the holidays."

After hearing this, the second and third class maids and servants were all happy.

And Xiao Hua, who was standing next to him, heard that the master's personal maid earned five taels of silver a month.

so much?

If Miss Su is the master, then she is the personal maid.

Five taels of silver a month, that’s sixty taels a year.

In an average middle-class family, a concubine only earns five taels of silver a month.

She was just so lucky.

Thinking about this high-paying job, she didn't mind even if her boss fined her some money later, because the salary would be quite a lot anyway.

After watching everyone excited.

Shen Xia continued, "Everyone should do their duty when they enter the Princess's Mansion. Don't do things that you shouldn't do, don't ask things that you shouldn't ask, and do your job well. I can guarantee that the welfare of the Princess's Mansion is definitely the best you have ever seen, but I can't tolerate even the slightest grain of sand in my eyes, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Although they say this, if a mistake is really made, we still look at what the mistake is. If it is not a mistake in nature or character, we can still give it a chance.

But you have to be strict in what you say.

After Shen Xia finished speaking, she glanced at Ming Ye.

I'll understand tomorrow night.

Shen Xia retreated back to the main hall and sat next to Song's mother.
