At one o'clock in the morning on December 20, Zhang Jing landed in London.
The entry process went smoothly.
Dillon came to pick up the plane, and Kane Joe's cousin Faye White was also there.
Looking at Faye White who seemed to have landed flat, Zhang Jing greeted with a smile on his face, "Ms. Faye, thank you for coming to pick up the plane for me."
"You're welcome," Faye White explained, "I'll introduce you to the sealing process tomorrow."
While walking to the parking lot, Faye White introduced, "There are five major steps in the ceremony of being awarded the title of baronet, and there are etiquette."
"Wait a minute," Zhang Jing interrupted Faye in surprise and asked in an uncertain tone: "From the title of Baron?"
"That's right," Faye asked with a confused expression, "Is there any problem with this?"
"Does the title of Baronet mean the same thing as Baron?"
"This" Faye White was even more confused, "Of course they don't mean the same thing. There is a big difference."
"."
Zhang Jing was angry, "Your cousin actually cheated on me?"
Faye White's expression was even more confused. She was sure that her cousin had not deceived Zhang Jing, "Mr. Zhang, did you misunderstand the word "Amu"?
The royal family has not created a baronet for half a century. "
"What title does Li Bancheng have?" Zhang Jing asked Faye.
“The title of Amu is divided into nine levels,” said Faye White. “The ninth level is the Order of Knights, and the Order of Knights is divided into five levels;
Mr. Li Bancheng is the second level of the Order of Knights - Knight of the Thistle. "
Zhang Jing: "."
After reading history, it is said that the "Nine-grade Sesame Official" is actually the most difficult thing for ordinary people to achieve.
I didn't expect such a thing to happen in real life.
Li Bancheng has donated more than 4 billion pounds to Amu, at least. He is still an important builder of Amu, and the knighthood is only the second level in the ninth level?
"What is the level of Baron?" Zhang Jing asked completely ignorant.
Faye slapped her forehead. She thought Zhang Jing would know about something as familiar as eating and drinking, but it turned out to be embarrassing.
To understand the causes and consequences, Faye introduced in detail, “Duke, Marquis, Earl, Viscount and Baron, these five well-known titles belong to the inherited nobility;
The following are: knighthood, baronetcy, and knighthood. These three can be inherited and do not belong to the nobility;
Finally, there is the Knight Medal, which is mainly awarded to people who have made important contributions to Amu, such as Li Bancheng. "
Faye gave a complete introduction, "In actual definition, among the five levels below the Order of Knighthood, the first three levels are higher than Baronet."
After learning the true situation, Zhang Jing was speechless, but it was reasonable. There was no way he could run in front of Li Bancheng.
Seeing that Zhang Jing was not very interested, Faye White comforted him, "The baronetship is not low. There are only a handful of foreigners who have obtained this title in the past century. Even the founders of Amu's local mega-corporations have not had this title." Such an honor.”
Zhang Jinghehe, I feel like the Amu royal family is very good at playing.
It has the same meaning as 'reluctant to sell', it's rare so it's precious.
In addition, it has been passed down for a long time. If it were someone else who obtained the 'Baron', they would have abstained from sexual intercourse in advance, bathed, eaten a vegetarian diet, and prayed sincerely, right?
Zhang Jing does not have this kind of consciousness. He does not need to look up to anyone. If it were not for the purpose of getting the 'Principal of Lancaster' company, he would not even bother to fly over.
Rested in the middle of the night to get jet lagged.
After breakfast at nine o'clock, Zhang Jing, wearing a customized gift, came to Windsor Castle at ten o'clock in the morning and met Kane Joe's boss.
A relatively unlucky old boy, his mother was too lively, so he was already too old to sit on the throne and could not play for a few years.
There was an idea in my mind that Zhang Jing smiled and was kind to others.
Because the knighthood is not open to the public, and the knight is only a baron, although the ceremony is strong, there are not many steps, and it can be completed in half an hour.
The most important one is naturally the fiefdom - the Principality of Lancaster.
As for the normal land fiefdom, the 'Principality of Lancaster' company can only be passed down to the eldest son. Ding Jiaqi is not easy to cheat, so when the conditions are negotiated, it is changed to allow free buying and selling.
"Jack," Kane Joe's boss finally invited, "tomorrow morning at nine o'clock;
At the Military Cemetery, a public burial will be held for the 1,145 soldiers who lost their lives in Folkestone Harbor Barracks and the sinking of the Queen. Do you have time to attend? "
"Yes, I will arrive early," Zhang Jing looked pitiful for a second, and asked in confusion: "The Queen is so advanced, why did it sink?"
“At first, we just encountered a mine,” Cain Joe’s boss introduced to Zhang Jing. “In order to save the ship, the captain chose to seal part of the cabin on the second floor;
One sailor was unwilling to be abandoned and swam to the torpedo storage compartment and deliberately detonated the torpedo. "
Zhang Jing nodded. No wonder Amu kept a low profile on the sinking of the big ship. It turned out that there was such a reason.
"Where is Folkestone Port?" Zhang Jing asked curiously.
"We do not rule out enemy sabotage, but it may also be due to neglect of management, just like the Port of Beirut."
After a few simple chats, Zhang Jing took the initiative to leave.
Don't worry about what you just got in the name of being granted a title - the Principality of Lancaster. It is a complex company with a total area of 180 square kilometers, scattered in many places.
There are castles, heritage churches, businesses, hotels, residences, apartments, farms, and more.
In the past, it had been taken care of by a professional team. Now, Barbie will quickly take over.
In the castle parking lot, Di Long opened the rear door for Zhang Jing in advance and said with joy on his face, "BOSS, congratulations."
Di Long was not an outsider, Zhang Jing showed a heartfelt smile on his face, "Go back to the hotel, have a good meal, celebrate, and take a good nap in the afternoon."
Di Long responded and closed the car door for Zhang Jing.
However, the bulletproof car was blocked by demonstrators at the exit of Windsor Castle.
Judging from the signs they held in their hands, they were expressing their dissatisfaction with the pensions for the families of soldiers who died in the war.
Because the prices of water, electricity, oil, gas, and food have generally increased, pensions that have remained unchanged have indeed become smaller.
Protesting is okay and is a civil right, but blocking roads is wrong.
How to deal with this situation?
Hehe, experience is very important at this time.
Zhang Jing told Di Long, "Take off your clothes."
"."
Listening to the boss, Dillon took off his suit.
"Keep taking it off."
With a bitter expression, Di Long continued to take off his white shirt and became bare-chested.
"Okay, you go down and shout with them, asking them not to block their own cars."
Di Long felt relieved. Fortunately, the boss didn't ask him to take off his pants.
Getting out of the car with his shirtless body, Dillon waved his arms rhythmically and shouted slogans, "Increase the pension! Increase the pension! Increase the pension!"
Zhang Jing walked from the back seat to the driver's seat, followed Di Long, and drove slowly past the demonstrators.
Exiting the congestion range, there is a normal road section behind.
Parking on the side of the road, Zhang Jing was about to return the driving seat to Di Long when he noticed a young mother with two children five or six meters away.
Sitting on the curb, crying and having a baby.
The eldest baby is about two years old. He is sitting next to his mother, does not cry or fuss, and is very sensible.
The baby was held in the woman's arms.
Looking at the woman's messy image, it was obvious that her living situation was not very good. In this situation, Zhang Jing wanted to leave.
But the little conscience he had left allowed him to go to the woman again.
