I Become A Noble in England

June 2nd is the day when the "Golden Jubilee Celebrations" marking the 50th anniversary of the Queen's accession to the throne of England begin.

Because it falls on Sunday, more people have time to participate in such a national carnival. According to the latest data, about one-third of British people will take part in various celebrations during this celebration.

When Barron came out of the apartment, he saw British flags flying everywhere in the streets of London.

The British, who are usually a little reserved, suddenly became extremely wild and started organizing all kinds of parties and open-air dances on the streets.

Interestingly, during this celebration, many stores in Britain announced that they would sell all kinds of goods to people at the prices when the Queen ascended the throne in 1952. This can be said to be a very successful commercial promotion.

Today, Barron is about to attend a thank-you event initiated by the royal family. After the event, a grand open-air classical music concert will be held outside Buckingham Palace.

In fact, after yesterday's audience with the Queen, Barron had completely given up the idea of ​​seeking help for the family crisis at such a royal social event.

But no matter what, as the future Duke of England, it is necessary to engage in more social activities.

And at today's open-air classical music concert, arguably the world's most famous classical and pop musicians and singers will come here to celebrate for the Queen, so even if you just view it as an entertainment event, it is worth going.

Barron's predecessor, as the second son of the Duke, did not receive aristocratic studies and training from a young age like his elder brother. This was partly because of his status as the second son, which generally did not require him to do so; of course, it was also related to his own eccentric personality, which was very different from his brother's.

Therefore, in the memories of Barron's predecessor, most of the impressions of other noble families were only about the younger generation - such as which girl was prettier and sexier...

It was also because of this that after arriving at Buckingham Palace and meeting many nobles and celebrities, Barron took great effort to remember their identities.

Fortunately for him, since coming to this time and space, Barron has gradually developed a better memory and quicker thinking ability than in his previous life and predecessor. Therefore, he now has a photographic memory and is quite capable of remembering people's names, titles and identities.

"Hello, Lord Barron, I am Ian Bute, from the Bute family, and this is my wife Chris."

Just as Barron started to socialize, a middle-aged man in a neat suit and a lady who looked quite elegant and was wearing a light yellow dress came towards him and greeted him.

It should be noted here that in Britain, there are specific rules for addressing nobility.

In Britain, the nobility is divided into hereditary nobility and life nobility. The so-called hereditary nobility is a title that can be passed down to the next generation, including viscount, earl, marquis and duke; while life nobility can only be granted to one person and cannot be inherited, just like the baron.

Among them, people respectfully address the duke and duchess as "Grace", and the nobles below the duke, including marquis, earl, viscount and baron, can all be called "Lord".

Therefore, although Barron was the only heir to the Duke of Devonshire at this time, he had not yet been granted a title, so other people called him "Your Lordship".

Just like Ian Butt in front of him now. After the introduction, Baron knew that the other party's father was an earl, and now as the first heir to the family, the other party also had the title of viscount.

At the same time, he also owns a real estate company, which has real estate projects in many places in England. It seems that the company is quite large.

"I was shocked to hear the bad news about the old duke. I was deeply saddened..."

Hearing Viscount Bute's words, Barron's eyes swept across the other party and his wife's face:

"Lord Ian, did you know my father before?"

"Yes, I once discussed a cooperation with your father, which was about the renovation plan of the Victoria Gas Tank in King's Cross, London... The old Duke was quite interested in it at the time, but he was busy with other things, so he temporarily delayed it..."

Barron had a vague impression of the place the other party mentioned. He should have seen it in the asset catalog of the family trust fund. However, there were too many items in the catalog and he did not have a deep understanding of it. So he said to Ian, 

"I'm sorry, Sir, you know, our family has too many things to deal with recently, so I need to go back and ask about the matter you mentioned."

"I fully understand this. In fact, I am going to offer another plan this time. That is, we will directly purchase the land of the gas storage tank and renovate and develop it ourselves. In this way, you can immediately recover a considerable amount of funds to make up for the losses..."

Viscount Bute said to Barron sincerely:

"Of course, now is probably not a good time to discuss in detail. Here is my business card. You can contact me later to discuss the details."

"Yes, my lord."

…

After temporarily saying goodbye to each other, Barron met the Prince of Wales and the two princes beside him.

The Prince of Wales was quite enthusiastic and introduced them to each other.

Of the two princes, the elder brother William is two years younger than Barron and is currently studying at the University of St. Andrews... Barron seemed to have a pleasant conversation with Cather about the university courses, and there was no sign that he had had such a history with Cather before - before that, he specifically looked for some related reports, and it seemed that Cather and William had not officially confirmed their relationship at this time.

The other one is Prince Harry, who will be more rebellious in the future. He looks a little shy at this moment. He is studying high school courses at Eton College, the most famous school in England, and he is also familiar with Barron.

Next, everyone began to move to the square outside Buckingham Palace to attend an open-air classical music concert to be held there.

The concert was attended by 18 members of the royal family, numerous aristocrats and celebrities, as well as other people, for a total audience of 12,000.

Before this, Barron had heard that the preparation for this concert took two years and cost a huge amount of money.

It can be said that top stars and artists from Britain, the United States and other countries have come here to perform on stage to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Queen's accession to the throne.

In addition to the audience on site, as many as 40,000 people gathered outside Buckingham Palace to watch this star-studded gala on a giant screen.

I have to say, it felt really good to be there in person—except for the Duke's daughter sitting next to Barron, who repeatedly and persistently invited me to attend the parties she initiated, or to "go out and play together"…
