Paris airports

Because it was not an official arrival of Nord, there were not too many people at the airport to greet him, but Joseph's identity was not ordinary after all, and the corresponding supporting facilities must be indispensable. Two members of the British Foreign Office, three cars, a detective from the police station, that's all there is to greet.

There were not many people, but Joseph was satisfied, after all, he was not prepared to come with great fanfare, and attending the banquet in secret was what he wanted, and as soon as the two sides did not have much to say, the British diplomat greeted him respectfully and ordered the driver to go in the direction of the hotel.

"Your Highness, this is Oxford Street, Seifridges is a long-established department store in London, where luxury brands from all over the world are here, but now the most of them are clothing and watches from Nord."

It can be seen that the attitude of this diplomat is still very fair, at least there is no force behind him, it is now a capitalist society, and every official in the West has his own interest team, even if it is just a small foreign ministry official.

In the same way, Joseph would not have been so warmly received if he had gone to the United States, and at least the officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs would not have praised the goods from the Duchy of Nord with such plain and sincere words.

Looking at the antique European buildings outside, Joseph asked a little strangely: "These are all pre-World War I buildings?" ”

Following Joseph's gaze, not far away is Marks & Spencer, Marks & Spencer in London is the largest store in the global chain of Marks & Spencer, where there are more goods than Milan and Rome, and the goods are more complete, but the price is slightly more expensive than in Italy.

"Most of them are pre-World War I buildings, but some of them are the result of war-torn renovations, and if Your Highness wants to come out tomorrow, Oxford Street is a great place to buy almost everything you can buy in London."

The words of the members of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs are true, but there is one sentence that he did not say, then even the things here are close to the international price, which is not cheap. Of course, the quality is absolutely good.

Joseph obviously didn't know this, nodded and listened to the advice of the diplomat and prepared to come over tomorrow for a visit, he did have money, so even if he knew, he would not care.

The hotel arrived quickly, but this was not a place for the British government to receive foreign guests, not that Joseph was not qualified, but Joseph preferred a more relaxed and free private hotel than there.

The hotel is not a five-star hotel, but a three-star hotel, but the Ministry of Foreign Affairs officials have indicated that if it comes to comfort and service, then this Camden boutique apartment is the best choice for Joseph.

There were no presidential suites, only small apartments, and the guards were naturally dissatisfied with the living conditions and felt that the security was too low, but Joseph's insistence made them helpless.

Joseph himself understands that it is not too safe now, but he has been aggrieved in Nord for more than a year, and he doesn't want to come out to play with him, and a group of bodyguards to escort him seems to be enviable, but in fact, only the owner understands how boring such a life is.

After getting out of the car, the official of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs helped to obtain a certificate of residence, and then left two cars and the policeman and they left, after all, Joseph arrived in a private capacity, and it is not the tradition of Western governments to follow him all the time.

"Sir, this way, please."

The waiter of the hotel led the way, he didn't know Joseph's identity, but from the two guards, he knew that he was not an ordinary person, but no matter how he was not an ordinary person, he was just a nine-year-old child, so there was no need to be nervous.

The West is a relaxed country, even if you run into a queen or a prime minister on the street? How to talk and how to talk, there will never be any nervous speechlessness.

Of course, a little excitement is necessary, such as in the movie of the King's Speech, where the ordinary doctor sees that the crown prince only treats him as a friend, and as social freedom becomes more and more open, the hierarchy begins to weaken. Forehead...... The exposure and influence of the global royal family is also one of the main reasons, and there is no awe without a sense of mystery.

A small room of more than thirty square meters, crisp white sheets, soft new towels, toiletries, a small desk, wardrobe, a few copies of today's newspapers, this is almost everything in the room.

In terms of luxury, it is far from being sophisticating, but it gives people a sense of home and makes you feel very warm, maybe this is the success of Camden Boutique Apartments!

Stretching a lazy waist, Joseph lay on the double bed like a child, looking up at the white ceiling, Joseph began to wander, perhaps it would be more comfortable to position himself as a rich man rather than a master.

Joseph has no political wisdom or talent for it, and Nord's ability to get to where he is today can only be said to be because of the construction of the system, and if it were another person with the system, I believe it would have done better than him.

"Your Highness, your dinner!"

It didn't take long for the sound of the guards to speak outside, and only then did he realize that the originally dim sky had darkened slightly, the light had left, and then the darkness followed!

Dinner was simple, a plate of mashed potatoes with sausages, a medium-rare roast beef, and in the words of the guard, he didn't think the British food was very tasty, but these two things in this hotel were not bad and worth trying.

At this time, the two guards who were with him were both old men of the Ragnar family, and Joseph knew the character of the guard who sent the things, and there was nothing wrong with it except that he was greedy, and since he said it was good, then it was really good.

Returning to his room with a plate and looking at the neon lights that had begun to light up on the street, Joseph watched and ate, huh...... It's really good.

Joseph slept well that night, and the good result was that it was already nine o'clock when he went out, and today he was going to visit an earl in England, although the title was not high, but the qualifications were old, and the family strength was relatively strong.

The Ragnar family also had in-laws with their family, but that was from the time of Ragnar I's grandfather, and although the two sides also had dealings, it was Ragnar II and the current heir to their family, not Joseph.

Well, there is another thing that is more embarrassing, the heir died on the battlefield in World War II, and it can be said that none of that family is someone Joseph is familiar with.

It is a bit of a misnomer to say that familiarity is not a word for familiarity, but not for any of them to have anything to do with the Ragnar family, or even because he is known only because he is the Grand Duke of the Nord Principality and not the patriarch of the Ragnar family.

It seems that there is no difference between the two identities, but in fact, there is a big difference, and the European aristocracy does not look at which country's royal family you are, but what people value is the family behind you.

Before coming to the UK, Joseph had already found out that the Liverpool family headquarters is now located in the suburbs of London, and the family mainly deals in retail and land, with fixed assets of about 130 million pounds.

Fixed funds do not mean the funds that can be used, if he agrees with the subway plan of the Principality of Nord, then it is not a big problem to borrow, unite, and loan to get four or five billion pounds in cash in the end, which is the strength of the family with a foundation.
