Rebirth of the Strongest Tycoon Chapter 1078

In the office, Xia Yu smiled, drinking tea indifferently.

After listening to Xia Yu's calm recount, Elena said with joy: "Xia Yu, in fact, based on your contribution to Britain, the royal family should have knighted you long ago. Although it is a bit late now, it is finally here."

"From now on, do I have to call you Sir Xia?"

Elena blinked her big beautiful eyes and looked at Xia Yu playfully and said.

Although her father was a Duke, the rank was much higher than the knighthood that the royal family wanted to grant Xia Yu, but she was still very happy for Xia Yu, because it represented the royal family's recognition of Xia Yu.

Xia Yu stroked Elena's hand and said jokingly: "Elena, then why should I call you, my lady?"

Elena blushed and looked out the door with a guilty conscience, and found that the office door was still closed, so she relaxed.

She gave Xia Yu a provocative look, and said with some arrogance: "It doesn't count what you said, you have to ask my father if he agrees."

Xia Yu smiled and embraced Elena in his arms, and said domineeringly: "Your father must agree if he disagrees, such a good son-in-law, can the whole world find a second one?"

After speaking, Xia Yu didn't wait for the shy Elena to answer, head straight down and caught the soft and warm XX.

After a long time, Xia Yu looked up again, looking at her pretty face flushed, her eyes blurred, like a beautiful rose waiting to be picked by Elena, and a sense of satisfaction rose in her heart.

Xia Yu's hot gaze made Elena feel weak, but her instinct told her that if Xia Yu was allowed to continue, more things might happen.

Therefore, after regaining some sanity, Elena reluctantly broke free from Xia Yu's arms, tidyed up her top, and provoked the topic to divert Xia Yu's attention.

"Xia Yu, do you plan to accept the royal knighthood?"

Xia Yu smiled and nodded and said, "Of course, even if I abandon British assets, it is impossible to abandon you. Since I am destined to have a deeper connection with the United Kingdom, it is much more convenient to accept the royal knighthood, even though the title of knight It's not precious."

Although she knew that Xia Yu was deliberately coaxing her, women, all the same, like to listen to the sweet words of their beloved, Elena was so happy in her heart, she looked at Xia Yu's eyes more tender and admiring.

Closer to home.

As Xia Yu said, the title of jazz is not precious, and here we have to mention the British honor system.

Britain's honor system is very complicated, so I won't mention the others, just talk about the distinction between Lord and Sir.

The Lord is a respectful name for the fifth-class nobles of the British Lord Marquis, but in fact there is no title of Lord, which is a blind spot for many people.

Except for the hereditary aristocracy since ancient times, almost all the nobles in Britain now are life-long aristocrats, and the life-long aristocracy and the baron in the hereditary aristocracy are of the same rank, so they also enjoy the honorary title of lord.

But for the Jazz, there is a clear difference.

In the ranks of the honor system, the jazz is a class lower than the quasi-barons and higher than the gentlemen. Like gentlemen and quasi-barons, it does not belong to the nobility.

The Queen of England can confer the Order of Jazz to people from any country.

But only the people of the Queen of England, including those who own British nationals and some of the nationals of Commonwealth countries, have the right to enjoy the title of "jazz".

For example, Lee Kimchee is a Korean citizen, and the Queen of England can grant him the Knightship of the British Empire, but Lee Kimchee cannot call himself Sir Lee Kimchee because he is not loyal to the Queen of England.

Therefore, almost all foreigners who contributed to Britain were awarded the knighthood, not the nobility. Even if the title of nobility is granted, because of disloyalty to the Queen of England, the titled person cannot use the title of nobility.

However, Xia Yu's words are Chinese with both British and American nationalities. When he was in Xiangjiang, he was a British national (overseas) by default. Legally he was a citizen of the Queen of England. So once he accepted the title of the Queen of England, except In addition to titles, titles of nobility or jazz can also be used.

It is okay for others to call him Sir Xia.

However, Xia Yu is "people in Cao Ying, heart in Han", even if he accepts the Queen's knighthood, he also intends to let others call himself "Mr. Xia" instead of "Sir Xia", unless he participates in the British aristocracy later He could only use this title when he was in a party.

Three days later.

Xia Yu entered Buckingham Palace in a formal suit, and found that in addition to Prince Philip and his wife, there were still several dukes inside, which surprised him.

Carter Howard, Duke of Norfolk, Ian Campbell, Duke of Argyll, Robert Grosvenor, Duke of Westminster, and Porter Philip Cavendish, Duke of Devonshire.

In addition to Duke Carter Howard, among the other three dukes, Xia Yu is slightly familiar with Duke Porter Philip Cavendish, because the majority of his equity in the Financial Times Group is from Porter Philip Card. It was bought from the Pearson Group in the hands of Duke Wendish.

As for whether these dukes happened to be here, or deliberately came to bear witness, Xia Yu didn't know and didn't ask.

Witnessed by everyone, the Queen of England held an award ceremony for Xia Yu, and personally wore Xia Yu with the Grand Cross, the highest level among the five knighthoods ("GBE" for men and women). The level is still On Bao Yugang, who was knighted the year before.

He became the third Chinese in Xiangjiang after Jian Yueqiang and Zhong Shiyuan to win the first-level knighthood and the highest honor of knighthood.

When he saw this medal, Xia Yu was only slightly surprised, and then some guessed that the royal family gave him such a high-level honor.

But he didn't care, whether Britain was for the sake of face-saving, or for psychological comfort in the back, a mere jazz title could not hinder the stability and money of Hong Kong.

It can even be said that the royal family suddenly awarded him honors, and at this time, he was further enveloped. In fact, he was already planning for the worst. For Xia Yu, this was a good thing.

Therefore, Xia Yu was in a good mood all morning.

After the awarding ceremony, Xia Yu had planned to leave. Unexpectedly, Prince Philip invited to play golf, and several other grand dukes would go.

Xia Yu readily agreed with his kindness.

Enjoyed a sumptuous lunch at Buckingham Palace, during which the queen also actively asked Xia Yu about many things about Xiangjiang. Xia Yu's answer was both cautious and witty. Some sensitive and profound topics were beaten by him using Tai Chi. Up.

After lunch, the group boarded the royal Bentley motorcade and headed to the London Golf Club 20 kilometers away. This is one of the top golf clubs in London. It has a 36-hole championship golf course in the UK. Even one of the best hilly courses in Europe.

During the chat, Xia Yu also learned that Prince Philip was still a major shareholder of this London golf club.

Under the leadership of major shareholders, everyone is a powerful and powerful person. Naturally, they enjoy the super VIP treatment. Under the leadership of the staff, they went to the last central area.

Standing on the hillside, with the breeze blowing, and looking at the pastoral scenery of nearly 700 acres, a breath of tranquility and peace comes to your face, giving people a whole-hearted enjoyment.

"This golf course is great!"

Xia Yu admired the host, Prince Philip, who was finishing the equipment again, and smiled happily.

"This golf club is considered top in the world, Mr. Xia, I look forward to you having a pleasant afternoon~www.mtlnovel.com~ This is for sure!"

Xia Yu responded with a smile.

While talking and laughing, the six people began to group, each of which formed a group of three. Xia Yu joined Duke Ian Campbell and Duke Carter Howard, and Prince Philip joined Duke Robert Grosvenor and Porter Philip Carr. A group of Duke Wendish.

Although Xia Yu is the youngest, his golf skills are not inferior to anyone. However, in this entertaining atmosphere, where the focus is on social games, he did not intend to show the limelight. After a few bright moments, he became casual.

After playing for a while, during the intermission, Duke Ian Campbell, who was familiar with a lot, walked up to Xia Yu and took out a very beautiful invitation.

Xia Yu picked it up, and Duke Ian Campbell's gentle voice rang in his ears.

"Sir Xia, in three days I will hold an initiation ceremony for my child Tokushir Ian Campbell. I hope you can come!"

Xia Yu was surprised, with a smile on his face, nodding and smiling: "Thank you Sir Campbell for your grand invitation. I will definitely participate."

Duke Carter Howard came over to Xia Yu and said, "Sir Xia, you can go with me at that time, and Elena and Henry will also go there."

"Oh?"

Xia Yu raised his brows and looked at Duke Carter Howard somewhat unexpectedly.

Before Duke Carter Howard could answer, Duke Ian Campbell smiled for Xia Yu.

"Sir Xia, you may not know that Sir Carter's children Elena and Henry are good friends with my children."

Xia Yu really didn't know this inside story.

He smiled and said: "It turns out that it's the case, it's the first time I know..."

"Haha..."
