The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Moreover, she knew most clearly how much importance Logan attached to this highest courtyard. Why did she have to be here whenever anyone came here? It was because Logan did not want any of the servants to damage the furnishings and arrangements here.

But he was now generously giving this place to Vera to live in. It could clearly be seen that Vera held a very important position to him!

At this time, Vera asked Madam Marilyn, "By the way, how many people are working here?"

Madam Marilyn replied, "There are sixteen maids, four bodyguards, and two drivers who make up a total of twenty-two people, so there are a total of twenty- three people including me."

Vera asked in surprise, "There are so many maids here?"

"Yes." Madam Marilyn replied, "There are four maids responsible for washing and cooking, eight maids responsible for sanitation and maintenance, and four maids who are responsible for gardening. However, some of them are more flexible and can be temporarily deployed if there is any need."

Vera asked again, "Where are these maids from?"

Madam Marilyn said, "They are all from Malaysia and were carefully selected from among the maids at home when I came here."

"I see," Vera nodded lightly and felt a little relieved.

These people were all from Malaysia and had served the Carrick family for many years, so they were all basically innocent domestic servants.noveldrama

Although the nature of domestic servants no longer existed in Oskia, this tradition was still preserved in wealthy families in Southeast Asia.

For the truly wealthy in Southeast Asia, the ratio of domestic servants to their own family members could sometimes reach five to one or even higher.

In order to ensure stability and reliability as much as possible and to reduce personnel turnover, they often adopted this kind of domestic servant. The other party would have been recruited to work for this family from when they were a teenager and would have worked for the family until the age of retirement. The family would also take care of their old age, then.

Most of these servants who chose to become domestic servants were from poor families and needed to support a large family, so one of them would be sent to

work as a servant for a wealthy family.

There were many advantages to

being a family. They would get to eat

well, live well, earn a lot of money,

and almost all the money they earned could be saved to subsidize their families. The wealthy family would not need them to be highly educated or have proficiency in other languages as long as they could work hard and diligently.

In the economically underdeveloped Southeast Asian region, many families and individuals yearned for such a job. Therefore, the vast majority of servants also regarded domestic servants as a lifetime job and were even willing to give up marriage and childbirth for this reason.

Servants who grew up in this environment cherished their work and were loyal to the family they worked for. They had little contact with the outside world and were less likely to be biased by bad thoughts from the outside world, so the safety factor was naturally much higher.

Vera liked this place more and more. Vera, who was always calm, then said to Madam Marilyn a little excitedly, "I have some things that I need, and I'll make a list later, so please help me get them."

Madam Marilyn said respectfully, "Okay, Miss Lavor. Just give me the list and I'll get it done right away!"
