In
a
trice
it
could
be
seen
that
he
had
played
his
part
in
life
as
all
such
bailiffs
do
--
that
,
originally
a
young
serf
of
elementary
education
,
he
had
married
some
Agashka
of
a
housekeeper
or
a
mistress
's
favourite
,
and
then
himself
become
housekeeper
,
and
,
subsequently
,
bailiff
;
after
which
he
had
proceeded
according
to
the
rules
of
his
tribe
--
that
is
to
say
,
he
had
consorted
with
and
stood
in
with
the
more
well-to-do
serfs
on
the
estate
,
and
added
the
poorer
ones
to
the
list
of
forced
payers
of
obrok
,
while
himself
leaving
his
bed
at
nine
o'clock
in
the
morning
,
and
,
when
the
samovar
had
been
brought
,
drinking
his
tea
at
leisure
.
"
Look
here
,
my
good
man
,
"
said
Manilov
.
"
How
many
of
our
serfs
have
died
since
the
last
census
revision
?
"
"
How
many
of
them
have
died
?
Why
,
a
great
many
.
"
The
bailiff
hiccoughed
,
and
slapped
his
mouth
lightly
after
doing
so
.
"
Yes
,
I
imagined
that
to
be
the
case
,
"
corroborated
Manilov
.
"
In
fact
,
a
VERY
great
many
serfs
have
died
.
"
He
turned
to
Chichikov
and
repeated
the
words
.
"
How
many
,
for
instance
?
"
asked
Chichikov
.
"
Yes
;
how
many
?
"
re-echoed
Manilov
.
"
HOW
many
?
"
re-echoed
the
bailiff
.
"
Well
,
no
one
knows
the
exact
number
,
for
no
one
has
kept
any
account
.
"
"
Quite
so
,
"
remarked
Manilov
.
"
I
supposed
the
death-rate
to
have
been
high
,
but
was
ignorant
of
its
precise
extent
.
"
"
Then
would
you
be
so
good
as
to
have
it
computed
for
me
?
"
said
Chichikov
.
"
And
also
to
have
a
detailed
list
of
the
deaths
made
out
?
"
"
Yes
,
I
will
--
a
detailed
list
,
"
agreed
Manilov
.
