The days of being a spiritual mentor in Meiman.

Chapter 2562: Xiao Xiao Down (Forty-six)

After dinner, Jason and Tim were driven out of the house by Schiller. They shouted for a long time in the house, insisting that they were good at cleaning, but Schiller still drove them all away for the sake of his hearing health.

Aisha was left behind because the moose meat in the refrigerator needed a place to go. He went to the backyard to sort out the parts of the barbecue grill and assembled the already simple barbecue grill, allowing Aisha to barbecue in the backyard by herself.

Schiller was sorting things in the front hall. He had not really done this job before, but he had a lot of references. When Merkel dealt with chaos, she tended to first collect all the things that were not in their original places and put them aside, clean the floor, walls and other things that could not be moved, and then slowly pick out the things she had collected before, put those that were not broken back in place, and send the broken ones for repair or simply throw them away.

Schiller also tried this method. He collected all the decorations and sculptures that had fallen on the ground and piled them in the dining room. He took out a broom and a small vacuum cleaner to clean the floor of the living room.

Fortunately, the power burst of Raven in the house was not very strong, which was almost equivalent to setting off a firecracker in the living room. Some things were just knocked to the ground, and there were some black ash and traces of explosion on the ground, as well as scratches from things falling.

Schiller swept away the broken pieces and vacuumed the dust, but there were still some strange marks on the floor that looked like they would have to be mopped.

Merkel rarely uses a mop because the building materials of the manor are too primitive and many places cannot withstand moisture. Also, because he cleans frequently, there are basically no stains that require cleaning fluid to clean, so a mop is naturally useless.

The mop was also a new thing for Schiller. Except when he needed to borrow the cleaner's box to store human debris and used a mop to disguise it, Schiller had never used it to clean.

But the house still provides various types of mops. In addition to the traditional cloth strips, there are sponge mops, mops made of materials like layers of silk screen, and hard rubber mops underneath.

Schiller looked at the various tools hanging in the tool room and decided to take out his phone to check. At this time, Aisha's voice came from outside, so Schiller had to put down his phone and walk over.

Elsa held up a roasted moose hoof and asked Schiller if he wanted to eat it. Schiller shook his head. Seeing Schiller in the tool room, Elsa put the moose hoof on the plate next to her and ran over quickly.

"What are you doing?" When Elsa is not in a hurry, she speaks very well. If you ignore the condition of her eyes and teeth, she can be called a cute little human girl.

"I'm going to mop the floor," Schiller said. "I'm going to look up how to use these mops. I'm not sure if the traces left by magic can be used with ordinary mops."

Elsa glanced back at the living room and said, "There's no sign of magic there. It looks like just some ordinary scratches, but are you going to check online? Why not call Alfred and ask?"

Schiller was stunned. He had never thought about this before. The main reason was that Alfred didn't look like someone who would clean the house in an ordinary way. He looked like an old butler with magic who could make the whole manor look brand new with just a breath.

If this were not the case, it would be difficult to explain how he managed to clean such a large estate by himself.

Schiller hesitated for a moment and felt that there was no need to disturb Alfred for such a small matter. What if Alfred really said that he could clean it up with just a breath? He couldn't let the old butler make a trip here.

Just as Schiller was about to continue typing into the search bar on his phone, the phone suddenly rang, and Schiller saw that it was the number of Wayne Manor.

"Hello, hello, yes Alfred, they had dinner at my place, and Elsa might stay here for the night...is that right?"

"It's actually nothing serious. My living room... Have you heard what they said?"

Schiller walked out of the tool room with the phone in hand and walked into the living room. He looked down at the marks under his feet and said, "No, the reflection is fine. The marks are black and flush with the surface. They don't look like they damaged the floor. I used a vacuum cleaner, but this thing can't clean it up."

"Yes, it's in strips, and there's some on the wooden legs of the sofa, and then there are some fan-shaped brown marks, maybe I can take a picture of it for you..."

Schiller kept talking and took a few photos with his mobile phone and sent them to Alfred. Alfred soon began to give a speech in the receiver, talking about the theory of the composition of stains and dust, organic chemistry, engineering related to the invention and design of cleaning tools, and child psychology on how to comfort and educate children who get into trouble...

In fact, Schiller needed this last part more. He had wanted to review it before, because the source of depression and irritability for most of the wealthy clients he would face next was their children.

After talking for more than ten minutes, Schiller hung up the phone. He had completely understood the theoretical part of stain removal, and the next step was to put it into practice.

According to Alfred, stains can be roughly divided into two categories, those that do not damage the surface and those that do damage the surface.

The vast majority of stains are of the first type, such as dust, dirt, spilled soup, etc. For these, you only need to remove the stain itself.

Use a vacuum cleaner for solid stains, and use an ordinary mop to wipe clean soup and water. If the stains contain oily components, add some detergent and everything will be very simple.

The latter is more troublesome. Alfred told Schiller a story about the Robins playing with fire in the house and burning the floor of the covered bridge near the garden black.

The floor itself was not burned, but the surface was completely burned. In this case, you have to vacuum first, then wipe the stains, then mix the cleaning liquid, rub it hard with a hard mop, and then wax and polish the floor again. Schiller was overwhelmed by this.

He checked the floor carefully. The black and brown marks did not damage the surface, so a simple wipe should be enough. The more troublesome thing was that the floor was scratched when the wood carvings and decorations fell off.

Alfred said that he could ask a professional team to come and polish it, but Schiller felt that there were only two or three marks in total, and there was no need to ask a specialist to come, so he decided to do it himself.

Aisha said she wanted to help, and Schiller didn't refuse. The sweeping and vacuuming process was completed. Schiller carried the mop to the backyard, where there was a sink for washing the mop.

Aisha put on gloves and followed him. Schiller finished washing the mop. Aisha's height was just right so she didn't have to bend down or lift the mop to wring out the mop head.

Aisha thought for a moment and said, "I think we should leave more water the first time. This way, it won't be too hard to wipe and it will be easier for the cleaning solution to foam. The second time, let it dry a little more so that there won't be any water stains."

"Can you clean?" Schiller asked curiously.

"I haven't done it myself, but I saw the aunties in the kindergarten do it this way." Aisha said as she twisted the mop: "They drove us out to play, and the teacher didn't let me get close to the slide. I didn't like to slide down the slide with them, so I just lay on the window and watched them work."

After Elsa said this, Schiller also remembered that the aunt who used to mop the corridor would always go back and forth two or three times. Until he grew up, he actually didn't know why she came so many times. Now he thinks it might be because a corridor had to be mopped wet and dry once.

According to Aisha's instructions, Schiller wiped the marks with a relatively damp mop. Some marks were wiped off directly, but some were still stubborn, so Schiller went to the tool room to find cleaning liquid.

Because this kind of house usually has a professional housekeeper, the cleaning liquid is not the popular brand that can be poured directly on, but needs to be mixed. Fortunately, there is no need to follow any laboratory regulations here. Just get a bucket and some water and pour it in according to the proportion.

Schiller took a look at the ratio Alfred had texted him, picked one that was more suitable for the floor at home, asked Aisha to get a bucket of water, ignored the teeth marks on the edge of the bucket, and began to pour cleaning liquid into it.

After wiping it with the prepared cleaning solution, most of the stains were removed, but there were still some scratches underneath. Schiller guessed that it might be caused by some sharp force because the radial shape of these scratches could be clearly seen.

It would be troublesome if there were so many places to polish. Schiller checked and found that there were no deep scratches overall. He wiped it a few more times, and then dry mopped it and found that the floors in other places were as clean as new. It was still not worth hiring someone to come over.

Waxing and polishing is a rather troublesome job. Schiller sat on the sofa and studied the guide sent by Alfred with Elsa for a long time, and regained the feeling of reading other people's experimental analysis reports when he first entered the academic world.

Elsa has an amazing talent for hands-on practice, and she has basically inherited her father's hands-on ability. She is the one who mixes all the filling powder and polishing paste, and Schiller is responsible for encouraging her by skillfully using child psychology.

The remaining steps are relatively simple. Use pigment to adjust the color of the powder paste, fill it into the deeper scratches, blow it dry with a hot air blower, apply polishing wax, and then use an electric rotary polisher and a mop to rub it vigorously.

This job took more than an hour, and the final result was very satisfactory. Even if you looked closely, you couldn't tell the disaster the floor had suffered.

Then he moved the decorations that had been moved away back in different categories. Schiller remembered where each item was placed, so he put them back in their original places.

The statue that had been given to the postman had long been cleaned and was now put back on the table. When the lights were turned on again, the whole living room was as bright as new.

But soon Schiller found some white cotton wool next to the bookshelf, and then he remembered that there was a cut on the back of the bat doll.

He turned over the bat doll that he had picked up earlier from the armchair next to him and found that the hole on the back was quite long and cotton was still leaking out.

Very good, it seems that the next course he is going to study is tailoring. Could it be that he happens to have an acquaintance who is proficient in sewing?

Bang bang bang!
There was a knock on the door.
