"Ahem, what did you say? Am I a baron? Du Yongxiao was a little surprised.

Du Yongxiao never thought that these ghosts would be so treacherous, and if he got a knighthood, he would wipe out all his credits, and he could only get a chief inspector or a small superintendent.

Unlike Du Yongxiao, who scolded his mother in his stomach, Howard and others, who valued the honor of the knighthood very much, were all stunned by the news brought by Old Henry at this moment.

Although it is now an era of peace, knighthoods and the like are not as grand as before, and there will be no fiefs or anything, but the glory of Sir is not something that ordinary people can bear.

What's more, Du Yongxiao is still a Chinese?

So young again?

The Chinese baron in his twenties is unique in the world.

"Yes, old Henry, are you mistaken? How could Du be made a baron? Is he Chinese? Howard asked, unable to stop his doubts.

The old butler next to him, Witt, widened his eyes even more, waiting for old Henry to explain.

"That's what happened! That's when I got the news......"

Then old Henry briefly recounted what had happened.

After listening, Howard no longer doubted, and his eyes when he looked at Du Yongxiao changed a little.

The old housekeeper Witt didn't dare to put on a high posture in front of Du Yongxiao anymore, and the height of his chin was three points shorter.

Seeing Howard looking at him, Du Yongxiao didn't hesitate anymore, and smiled at Howard: "Put this matter aside for the time being, about the cooperation we just talked about-——

Howard took the initiative to stretch out his hand: "Happy cooperation!" ”

For Howard, money is secondary, honor is the most important!

Being able to cooperate with the first Chinese baron in history, I don't know if he will also go down in history.

……

"What's wrong, Jerry? Looks like you're in a bad mood! ”

In Du Yongxiao's villa, Tom, the housekeeper, walked outside and saw that Jerry, the black driver, was not wiping the car, but was smoking.

Jerry sighed, "It's not my girlfriend's business?" Their parents did not approve of her befriending black people. ”

Tom understood, pulled out a cigarette, and leaned back in the car: "Indeed, if I had a daughter, I wouldn't allow her to find a black man as a boyfriend." ”

"Huh?" Jerry glared at Tom.

Tom hurriedly said: "Don't look at me like this, this is the case in the UK, and it is even more serious on the US side!" Does Los Angeles know that blacks over there will be shot casually by white policemen! So dear Jerry, you should be glad that you are in London, not Los Angeles. ”

"Dude!" Jerry glared at Tom and said, "I've worked with you for so many years, so you can't tell something nice?" ”

"Okay, good, I'll tell you something nice! In your current situation, if you want to win the favor of the girl's parents, unless your status is taken to the next level. ”

"What do you mean?"

"It means that although you are a black man, you are not an ordinary black man!"

"Damn! If you say this, you don't say it, I'm just a black driver, can I still be named Marquis Jinjue? ”

"Haha, don't even think about this! Even if you really make a marquis, it won't be your turn! ”

"So what should I do?"

"You should pray, pray that our master can be crowned Marquis Jinjue, and then you and I can also drink soup and eat meat, and chickens and dogs will ascend to heaven!"

"How is that possible?" Jerry sneered, "Although our master is very powerful, he is Chinese, Chinese!" I'm a black man and I'm superior to him, how could he be canonized by the queen? ”

Tom also agrees with Jerry's point of view, although Du Yongxiao is very powerful, but he is too far away from being knighted or something, and even a little whimsical.

"Forget it, when I didn't say it! Actually, I just want to comfort you! ”

The two sighed, smoked cigarettes, leaned back in the car, and watched the maid in the yard slapping the quilt and the cook washing the potatoes.

……

Jingle bells

The phone rang.

Tom, the butler, was smoking a cigarette and didn't bother to answer it, and motioned to the maid: "Go and answer the phone!" ”

The maid rolled her eyes.

Tom flashed the cigarette he was smoking at her, and the maid went into the house to answer the phone in a disgruntled manner.

Soon, the maid ran out in a panic-——

"Out, something is wrong!"

"What could happen?" Tom reproached, "Don't make a fuss! Pay attention to the meter! ”

"Yes, yes, it's the master who has an accident!" The maid stammered, "He has been canonized as a baron by Her Majesty the Queen, let me inform you, hurry up and customize the dress, and follow him to the investiture ceremony tomorrow!" ”

"Poof!"

Jerry, the black driver, fell straight to the ground.

Tom, the white butler, was even more dumbfounded, and he didn't even know that the cigarette burned to his fingers.

……

Word spread quickly.

Originally, the place where Du Yongxiao lived belonged to the suburbs of London, the place was small, and the news spread quickly.

Before Tom could pack up his house and prepare for Baron Du's triumph, there was a constant knock on the door.

Nearby villagers flocked to the village with gifts such as chickens, ducks, fish, whiskey, brandy, etc.

These people have never been in contact with dignitaries and nobles in their lives, let alone seeing a big man of this level like Sizz, and now there is one next to them, how can they not be excited?

"Is Baron Du at home? This is my own London duck, so it's a great duck dish! ”

"Dear Baron, this is our farmed salmon, which can be used as salmon sashimi!"

"My lord, this is my own malt whisky! Made from pure malt without any added chemicals! ”

These villagers are very simple and kind, and the biggest purpose at this moment is to take a look at the future Baron Du Yongxiao.

It's a pity that Du Yongxiao hasn't come back yet.

Tom, the housekeeper, had no choice but to accept all the gifts from the villagers, and for the sake of fairness, he also wrote a list of gifts and marked the names of the givers.

"Excuse me, you must give the whiskey to Baron Du to taste!"

"Yes, our salmon is very good, and it is better to have Baron Du advertise it!"

"Okay, everyone's mind, I'll take it for our Lord Baron!" Tom exhaled and raised his eyebrows, he had never felt so imposing as he did today.

Even Jerry, the black driver, also walked with the wind, and saw that people's nostrils began to turn to the sky.

"When our Lord Baron returns, I will definitely convey your thoughts to him. For now, please leave first! Yes, we still have a lot to prepare, and tomorrow our master will receive the award, and perhaps we will have to get up early -——."

After finally trying to persuade the villagers to leave, Tom was so tired that his mouth was dry, and when he turned around, he saw Jerry, the black driver, on the phone-——

"Hey, are Miss Tracey's parents? I'm her boyfriend, Jerry. Yes, I'm the black driver! ”

There was a curse on the other end of the phone.

Jerry will immediately become inferior before he changes,

At this moment, he said: "Have you finished scolding?" Oh, actually, it's nothing, I just called to inform you that my master is going to participate in the award tomorrow, and I don't have time to accompany your daughter to play billiards! Yes, no time. ”

Jerry raised the mourning door: "You ask our master what honor?" Oh, I forgot to tell you -——."

Jerry crossed his legs, "Baron! British Empire, Chinese Baron! ”
