5. Lushkoff is earning thirty five roubles a month. How is he obliged to Sergei for
this?
Ans. When Sergei moved into another house, he hired Lushkoff to help him in
packing and hauling the furniture. Although he was weak and debilitated to work
but still showed no reluctance. He didn't complain about the work, didn't even
pretend to be busy. Sergei was impressed by his willingness to work. He found him
sober and showing no objection to work. Having known his ability to write, he
offered him a cleaner employment. He asked his friend to employ him as a copying
clerk. Lushkoff accepted the new job offer. With his hard work and determination
to work, he soon became a notary officer and started earning thirty five roubles per
month. Lushkoff was grateful to Sergei for his kind words and deeds. He thanked
him for his protection and guidance which ultimately led him to become a
respectable and self-dependent man.
