When the battle was over, Su Ze was about to enter the elevator, and it was only then that the rich people in the hall finally breathed a sigh of relief. I didn't think that he hadn't even stepped on the lifting platform with one foot, and there was such a good thing person on the second floor who was not afraid of death and stopped him, which really made people grit their teeth with hatred!

However, when the diners in the hall turned their eyes to the figure on the stairs, the anger in their eyes quickly turned to surprise, and even faintly revealed a little horror - Di Duyu, the biggest flower merchant in Panda City, the hereditary viscount!

Since we talked about knighthood, I have to say a few more words.

As we all know, the titles are divided into five from high to low, such as duke, marquis, uncle, son, and male, but what kind of identity, status, and position each title corresponds to, many people may be confused.

The duke has the highest status, and the way to obtain it is roughly divided into two categories: either he is born in the emperor's family, and even if he is a newborn baby, he may be mixed with the identity of a duke; Therefore, the dukes on the continent of Samon are either royalty or the top summoners - dragon summoners!

The status of the marquis is second only to the duke, but this title will only be awarded to relatives of the royal family, such as the queen's brother, the princess's father, the horse's uncle and nephew, and so on. Therefore, the marquis has a very high status in name, but in fact he is a hat that he has to bow to the royal family all his life, and his political power may not be as good as that of the earl.

The earl is a third-class title second only to the duke and the marquis, there are many of them, and most of them are from major summoner families, and their strength is generally between demon summoners and spirit summoners. It is precisely because of his family background, strength, and education that the earl has almost all the high-ranking official positions from the city-state to the imperial capital, from the school to the military camp. Therefore, in a sense, these people are the real real power within the empire!

In comparison, the status of the viscount is obviously inferior to the first three, but the people who can obtain the title of viscount are "heroes" nine times out of ten. For example, when the treasury is tight, donate generously, such as giving generous gifts at the queen's birthday banquet, and then inviting guests to dinner during the king's private visit, in short, it is to pat the royal family's sycophants and hug the royal family's thighs.

Therefore, being named a viscount does not involve the strength assessment of a summoner, whether it is a low-level summoner or a businessman, or even those who are nothing, they may become viscounts. However, do not think that the viscount is easier to provoke than the duke, the marquis, and the earl—they are all people who can speak in front of the king! Otherwise, why do you always say that the most powerful official in Chinese history is not the prime minister, but the eunuch next to the emperor.

Finally, let's talk about the baron who seems to be the most soft-spoken.

On the continent of Samen, the baron is not so much a status symbol as a symbol of strength. Kings often bestow the title of baron to those who have no status, no background, and no godfather. In a sense, among these people, the next generation of marquis and earls will inevitably be born, and if they are strong enough and lucky enough, the possibility of being crowned a duke is not low. Therefore, they are the future stars of an empire!

To sum up, no matter how high or low the title is, a person with a title is not something that ordinary people can afford to mess with. Even between the highest duke and the lowest baron, they generally do not make enemies easily, after all, thirty years to the east of the river and thirty years to the west of the river.

Knowing these backgrounds, we also know why the wealthy businessmen are so afraid of Di Duyu. And the extra word "hereditary" in front of his "viscount" is one of the few in the limited history of the Samene continent for more than 600 years!

Generally speaking, as long as a dynasty is not overthrown, then only the family identity can be hereditary. And the title, even if it is the duke with the highest status, should be sealed and withdrawn when it should be withdrawn - if you take the throne by strength, then it depends on whether your descendants have the strength of a dragon summoner, and if you ascend to the throne by blood, it depends on whether your descendants are favored or not.

Similarly, under the constraints of strength and favor, it is impossible for marquises, counts, and barons to be hereditary in their families. In this way, the only viscount who does not need strength and does not have real power becomes the only title that can be hereditary. And it was precisely by virtue of the dark purple tulip that had just been discovered from the Warcraft Forest that the Di family had just discovered at the queen's 40th birthday banquet during the reign of the previous king, Nobel XIX, that he won the hereditary glory of the Viscount of Huhua.

The dark purple tulip was mysterious and noble, and as soon as it appeared at the venue, it attracted the attention of all the court ladies who attended the banquet. Not only the reigning queens and princesses loved him, but even the king's biological mother, the eighteenth queen, was very fond of dark purple tulips.

At that time, seeing that everyone in the court loved the dark purple tulips, Nobel XIX smiled for Bo Hongyan, not only gave the Di family the title of lifelong viscount, but also personally nominated the dark purple tulips as the "Night Queen" and positioned it as the national flower.

Because of this incident, for six years and nine months after the banquet, the price of all tulip bulbs in the Zeks Empire increased wildly, and at its peak, it was once inflated by merchants to hundreds of gold coins! This is the "Tulip Bub Incident" that existed like a joke in the history of the Zeks Empire, and I will not repeat it here.

Although Su Ze was not familiar with human feelings, he was extremely sensitive to the sight of others, and immediately knew that the identity of the man who hurried downstairs was not low, so he stopped and waited until the other party came close before asking, "Is there something wrong with you?"

Di Duyu's physical fitness is good, and he only panted slightly when he trotted all the way. I saw him take off his hat, take off his hat to Su Ze, then put his hat back on, and asked with a smile: "Little brother is extraordinary, I don't know what your summoner level is?"

Do the people in the city care so much about the summoner's level? Su Ze frowned slightly, and replied casually, "What does it have to do with you?"

Hearing such a reply, Di Duyu was stunned for a moment, and a nameless fire immediately burst out of his chest. But in the next second, he suddenly calmed down again, and while looking at Su Ze, he secretly said in his heart: That's right, if you don't have the ability, how can you be sideways?

"With the strength of the little brother, he will never be an unknown person, since I look at the face, it means that you are new to Panda City, right?" Di Duyu's tone did not have any contempt at all, there was just a sense of arrogance with a heart, "The Di family has been operating the flower industry in Panda City for more than a hundred years, and because of the first discovery of dark purple tulips, they were given the title of Viscount of Guardian Flowers by the previous king. I am the current head of the Di family, Di Duyu, I happened to meet today's incident, and I want to make friends with you, little brother!"

Su Ze nodded and agreed: "Oh." ”

Oh? I've already made my identity so clear, you give me an "oh"? Di Duyu wanted to use his identity to make Su Ze want to cooperate with him, but he didn't know that Su Ze couldn't tell the title at all, and he didn't even know that the dark purple tulip was the national flower of the Zex Empire. If he wants to rely on his identity to take the lead, then didn't he just smash his fist on the cotton?

"Are you okay?" Su Ze didn't know what Di Duyu was thinking, and when he saw that he stopped himself but was stunned on the spot, he immediately turned his head and walked up to the lifting platform, and said expressionlessly: "I'm tired, see you later." ”

When two beggars with normal faces and a waiter with a dead face slowly disappeared from everyone's field of vision, looking at Di Duyu's lonely back, all the diners began to pay frantically on both the first and second floors. At this moment, they have only one thought in their hearts, that is, to hurry back and warn the employees in their store - if they see beggars again, they will serve Lao Tzu!
