June 2, this day, is the beginning of the "Golden Jubilee Celebration" of the Queen of England's 50th anniversary on the throne.
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 the British people will participate in various celebrations during this celebration. .
When Barron came out of the apartment, he saw British flags flying everywhere in the streets and alleys of London.
The British people, who were usually somewhat reserved, became uncharacteristically wild and held various parties and open-air dances on the streets.
Interestingly, during this celebration, many stores in England announced that they would sell various products to people at prices that were the same as when the Queen ascended the throne in 1952. It can be said that it was a very successful commercial promotion.
Today, Barron is about to participate in a thank you event sponsored by the royal family. After the event, a grand open-air classical concert will be held outside Buckingham Palace.
In fact, after yesterday's interview with the Queen, Barron has completely given up on the idea of seeking help for a 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 in today's open-air classical concert, it can be said that the world's most famous classical and pop musicians and singers will come here to celebrate the Queen, so even if it is regarded as an entertainment event, it is worth going.
Barron's predecessor, as the second son of a duke's family, did not start some aristocratic studies and training from an early age like his older brother. On the one hand, because of his status as the second son, there was generally no need to do so; of course, It has to do with the different personalities of himself and his brother.
Therefore, in the memory of Barron's predecessor, most of the impressions about other noble families were only about the younger generation - such as which family's girls are more beautiful and sexy... It is
also because of this that after arriving at Buckingham Palace, he saw many Nobles and celebrities, Barron spent a lot of effort to remember each other's identities.
Fortunately for him, since he came to this time and space, the current Barron has gradually become accustomed to a better memory and faster thinking ability than his previous life and predecessor, so he can be called a photographic memory at this time. He seems to be quite comfortable with the workload of remembering people's names, titles, and identities.
"Hello, Lord Barron, I am Ian Butt, from the Bute family, and this is my wife Chris."
Just as Barron began to socialize, a middle-aged man in a straight suit A lady wearing a light yellow dress and looking quite elegant came towards him and said hello.
It should be noted here that in England, there are specific rules for addressing nobles.
In England, nobility is divided into hereditary nobility and life nobility. The so-called hereditary nobility is a title that can be passed on to the next generation, including viscount, earl, marquis and duke; while life nobility can only be awarded to one person and cannot be inherited, just like That's what it's like to be a Baron.
Among them, people respectfully call the duke and duchess "Grace", and the nobles below the duke, including marquis, earls, viscounts and barons, can all be called "Lord".
Therefore, although Barron is the only heir to the Duke of Devonshire family at this time, he has not yet been ennobled, so when others call him, they call him Lord.
Just like Ian Butt in front of him at this time, after introduction, Barron knew that the other party's father was an earl. At this time, the other party, as the first heir of the family, also had the title of viscount.
At the same time, he also owns a real estate company and has carried out real estate projects in many places in England. It seems that the scale of the company is not small.
"I was deeply saddened by the sad news about the old Duke..."
After hearing Viscount Bute's words, Barron's eyes swept across the faces of the other party and his wife:
"Lord Ian, have you known my father before?"
"Yes, I have also talked about a cooperation with your father. It was about the renovation plan of the Victoria gas storage tank in King's Cross, London... At that time, the old Duke was quite interested in this, but he was busy with other things at the time, so he temporarily delayed it..."
The place the other party mentioned was Ba Lun still had a vague impression. He should have seen it in the asset catalog of the family trust fund. However, after all, there were too many items in that catalog, and he would not have a deep understanding of it. Therefore, at this time, he had no idea about Yi. En said:
"I'm sorry, Mr. Lord, you know, our family has too many things to deal with recently, so I need to go back and ask about the things you mentioned." "I completely
understand this. In fact, This time I am going to give you another plan, which is for us to directly purchase the land for the gas storage tank and transform it and develop it ourselves, so that you can immediately recover a lot of money to make up for the loss..."
Bu Viscount Te said to Barron sincerely:
"Of course, now is probably not a good time to talk in detail. Here is my business card. You can contact me for detailed discussions later."
"Okay, Your Excellency."
...
After bidding farewell to each other for the time being, Barron saw the Prince of Wales again and the two princes beside him.
The Prince of Wales showed enthusiasm and introduced them both.
Of the two princes, his elder brother William is two years younger than Barron and is currently studying at the University of St. Andrews...Barron actually had a good conversation with each other about the university courses, and there was no trace of the previous relationship between Barron and Cather. A story - before, he specifically found some relevant reports. It seemed that Cather and William were not officially in a relationship at this time.
Another Prince Harry, who will be more rebellious in the future, still looks a bit shy at this time. He is studying in 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 the open-air classical concert that will be held here.
This concert was attended by 18 members of the royal family, as well as many nobles and celebrities. Together with other people who came, the total audience was 12,000.
Barron had heard before that the preparation for this concert took two years and was very expensive.
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 live audience, as many as 40,000 people gathered outside Buckingham Palace to watch this star-studded gala on a giant screen.
I have to say that the feeling of being there in person is still very good - except for the fact that the daughter of a certain duke sitting next to Barron persistently invited me to the parties she sponsored many times, or to "go out and have fun together." ...
