When Levin had changed his first hundred-rouble note to pay for liveries for his footman and hall porter he could not help reflecting that these cheap Tiffany Jewelry liveries were of no use to anyone - but they were indubitably necessary.
To judge by the amazement of the Princess and Kitty when he suggested that they might do without liveries - that these liveries would cost the Tiffany Jewelry sale wages of two laborers for the summer - that is, would pay for about three hundred working days from Easter to the fast of Advent.
And each a day of hard work from early morning to late evening - and that hundred-rouble note did stick in his throat. But the next note, changed Tiffany Jewelry to pay for providing a dinner for their relations, that cost twenty-eight roubles.
