(XL)The heir of Crawley arrive at home，in due time，after this catastrophe，and henceforth may be said to have reigned in Queen's Crawley.For though the old survived many months，he never the use of his intellect or his speech completely，and the government of the estate devolved upon his older son.In strange ，Pitt found it.Sir Pitt was always buying and :he had twenty men of business，and quarrels with each;quarrels with all his tenants，and lawsuits with them;lawsuits with the lawyers;lawsuits with the Mining and Dock Companies in which he was proprietor;and with every person with whom he had business. To unravel these difficulties，and set the estate clear was a task worthy of the orderly and persevering diplomatist of pumpernickel:and he set himself to work with assiduity.His whole family，of course，was transported to Queen's Crawley，whither Lady Southdown，of course，came too;and she set about converting the parish under the rector＇s nose.，and brought down her clergy to the dismay of the angry Ms Bute.Sir Pitt had concluded no bargain for the sale of the living of Queen's Crawley;when it should drop，her ladyship proposed to take the patronage into her own hands，and present a young protege to the Rectory;on which subject the diplomatic Pitt said nothing.

　　克勞萊家的嗣子在出事以後不久便回家了，

從此之後，他就成了女王的克勞萊的一家之主。上了年紀的從男爵雖然又活了好幾個月，可是言語不清，腦子也糊塗了，莊地上一切事務，便由大兒子接手管理。畢脫發現情形很古怪。畢脫爵士老是把產業買進來典出去;他有二十個辦事人，然而和他們個個拌過嘴。他又和佃戶們吵架打官司;又和律師打官司;他是開礦公司造船公司的股東，於是和這些公司也打官司。總之，凡是和他打過交道的人都和他有法律糾紛。 這些困難和莊地上的種種糾葛，的確需要像本浦聶格爾的外交官那樣有條有理，百折不回的人來解決。他接手之後，便孜孜不倦的辦起事來。他全家搬到女王的克勞萊大廈住下，莎吳塞唐伯爵夫人當然也跟著來了。她開始在教區裡進行工作，就在牧師眼皮底下傳她自己的教，還把她那些未經批準的牧師們也帶到鄉裡來，不由得叫別德太太又驚又氣。女王的克勞萊教區的牧師職位，畢脫爵士還沒有和人訂約出賣，伯爵夫人準備等到別德死後位子一空出來就自己接手，把她手下一個年輕小夥子安插進去。　　以上摘自英國小說《名利場》

　　一個人會變老，會生病，會死去，其財產由其子女繼承。如何運作財產有其一定社會規則下的運作方法，人類發展至今，這種方法多以生意的形式操作，其實質是人們互通有無，達成一種利益分配的模式。人生社會，個人有個人的利益，個人爭取個人的利益。利益是如何形成的?一方面，物質利益的形成，源於各生命個體的物質需求，其利益的形成形式和固化，在於一定社會下的法律文書規范。一定社會下的法律文書規范下的利益，還包括意識形態范疇的影響力下的佔領覆蓋利益，教士及從事傳教這一塊工作的人們，在某個特定的社會形態下，因這一塊已被廣泛接受且已以法律或習俗認可方式存在下來，其從業人員就可從中客觀獲得名聲利益和物質利益，而這客觀獲得這方面名聲利益和物質利益的行為，也是受一定社會規范左右的，都有其遊戲規則。
