Although Wang Batian's cousin is very low-key in Europe, many European nobles know this Chinese duke. At the same time, Wang Batian's cousin has also accumulated a lot of money for a hundred years. Not to mention the others, even if it is stored two paintings from the First World War period, it is worth a lot of money now! What's more, Wang Batian's cousin was a very rich man at that time, and now...

The Duchess died of illness at the end of World War II. Until now, the entire family has three branches, two are adopted sons adopted by the old duke, and the other is the Duchess' nephew.

Although she loves her husband very much, she also attaches great importance to her family's Duchess. Her nephew did not receive a title because of her two brothers. Coincidentally, they have no offspring, so the Duchess naturally has some careful thoughts.

The housekeeper is considered the old duke. He said that the old duke actually had his own idea, which was to find a child from Wangjiagou to adopt him. However, because he was expelled from Wangjiagou, he never dared to mention this matter. At the same time, he also felt that this matter was not easy to operate in the UK.

Not to mention that my wife has her own ideas, the British royal family can tolerate a Chinese inheriting the title of Duke? Although he is also a Chinese, don’t forget that he married a British princess.

This matter has been delayed for more than fifty years. The princess has died. Her nephew has not survived her old duke. Now the family is competing for the title is the grandson of the nephew, a young man in his twenties.

Wang Batian pointed to the British young man outside whose face had been cold all the time and asked, "He?"

"No, no, he is Mr. Allen, Mr. Auston's good friend."

Auston is the young man with the most powerful contender for the title of royal blood, and this Allen is a descendant of one of the two adopted sons of the Duke. Although they do not have the right to inherit, they have great influence in Winston. The middle-aged man who is a little smaller than Housekeeper Vinson is the bloodline of another adopted son.

The old duke prepared for decades today, and even affected some conditions for the royal family to change their rights to inherit the title, and all of this was arranged for the present.

In theory, Wang Batian is qualified to inherit the Duke's title. Of course, Wang Zhongyi is the most qualified one, but he rejected it, so this title naturally fell on Wang Batian.

At the beginning, the old housekeeper was a little worried that the title was not so easy to inherit. He accidentally died unexpectedly, but when he learned that the person who had the inheritance rights was actually the richest man in Washington and had close ties with the international organization Hongmen, he felt relieved.

The century-old rule allowed the old duke to keep the territory and the iron barrels run by the Duke's Mansion. Not only the housekeepers, but also the lawyers, doctors, and those who are in charge of business outside are all 100% loyal to the old duke.

Since the old duke said that his title must be held by the Wang family, they naturally would not violate it. Although some of the wills who betrayed the old duke chose to support Auston, I believe that with the help of the old butler and others, it is still very likely that Wang Batian will win the title.

This is also the reason why the king and dominate. The duke of a big country is also a very influential duke. What this means for the country is self-evident. They naturally hope to see such a scene.

The director of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs actually has some other tasks, such as having a good relationship with Wang Batian. In the future, if there are places in need in China, I hope Wang Batian can do his best to help.

Wang Batian did not agree to the inheritance of the Duke immediately, and the old housekeeper could understand it, but he said that time could not be delayed for too long, and Wang Batian must give him an answer for at most one week.

In fact, Wang Batian was not prepared to refuse, but once he accepted that he was British, there was no such thing as a dual nationality in China. Therefore, he had to deal with domestic affairs properly, and this matter must be discussed with Yang Qian.

Yang Qian is a government official. What is her husband a British man? Divorce is definitely not possible, so this matter will eventually fall on the official of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Before leaving, the old housekeeper briefly talked about the situation of the Duke's Mansion. Although the nobles now have no territory, in Winston, 60% of the land there is the assets of the Duke's Mansion. In addition, the Duke is also a member of the British House of Lords. This seat is accused of hereditary status. In other words, as long as Wang Batian inherits the title, he will be a definite member of the British House of Lords.

Not to mention wealth, how much can you save in a century? The old duke can be regarded as a real invisible rich man, but because he doesn't have much equity in listed companies, he has not been on the Forbes rich man rankings.

The Forbes Rich Ranking generally evaluates the owner's wealth based on the income announced by listed companies. Although unlisted people can also be evaluated, the accuracy is not that high.

For example, Duke Winston, who is estimated to have only a few hundred million pounds of equity wealth, is truly valuable to Winston's 60% land, but the old duke did not set up a company but was directly under his name. How to count this?

The entire population of Wintons is about 110,000, with a land area of ​​more than 900 square kilometers. Although Duke Winston only has about 60% of the land, more than 80% of the population of 110,000 relies on Duke Winston's house. The status of Duke Winston can be imagined.

If it is said that the election, it is very easy for Duke Winston to win 100,000 votes, but because of Chinese, the possibility of becoming prime minister is very small.

When the three British left, the director of the Foreign Affairs Department naturally had to follow him, but before leaving, he told Wang Batian that he would visit Beijiang tomorrow. Wang Batian also had something to talk to him, so he agreed happily. He did not gather until they all left Yang Qian, hoping that Wang Batian could explain what was going on.

“I don’t have much time in China.”

Wang Batian's first words shocked everyone present. What's going on? Why is there not many situations in China? Is it related to the British just now?

He calmly told the purpose of the three British people. Xu Jianyi and Yang Qian were stunned in place, Duke of Britain, inheritance, princess... Are these words really realistic?

They didn't expect that in just a while, Wang Batian would actually go from a rich man in China to a legendary British aristocrat and a Chinese to a British aristocrat? This is really a joke. Wang Batian also found it a bit incredible, but the facts are in front of him!

"What are you going to do?"

This sentence was naturally asked by Yang Qian, but Wang Batian did not answer but looked around and said to go back. At this time, Yang Qian and the others realized that they were still at the door of the labor camp.

"Old Xu, I have two apprentices. They will be released on January 27. Remember to pick them up."

Remember to pick them up and arrange for someone to pick them up. Their meaning is completely different. Xu Jianyi was stunned at first and then nodded to show that he understood what Wang Batian meant.

"Do you want me to come?"

Although he is also a manager, Zhu Yunsheng is more like Wang Batian's servant. This kind of thing is naturally not as suitable as Zhu Yunsheng for Xu Jianyi.

Zhu Yunsheng's words made Wang Batian realize this, but in the end he insisted on choosing Xu Jianyi. He wanted Xu Jianyi to understand that he was not just the president of Beijiang Heavy Industry, but also Wang Batian's person.

In fact, Wang Batian was a little dissatisfied with Xu Jianyi. Many times, Xu Jianyi focused on Beijiang Heavy Industry rather than himself. He asked him to do some things and often pushed back and forth. This was not the result that Wang Batian hoped to see. Especially at this time, he decided to accept the title of Britain. In the future, the country was naturally not very good. He had to ensure that Xu Jianyi was his own talent.

Xu Jianyi seemed to realize something, so he did not refuse but nodded. Fortunately, he did this, otherwise Wang Batian would have to think about whether he was suitable for the position of the president of Beijiang Heavy Industry. This position ability is important, but the most important thing is loyalty.

From the labor camp to the airport, Wang Batian didn't speak. Yang Qian didn't know what she thought about. When Wang Batian arrived at the airport, she found that his three women were actually on different planes (excluding Yu Ying), which made him feel a little embarrassed.

Of course, such a dilemma was only a moment, and then he chose to play with Yang Qian, which was the most correct choice. After all, Yang Qian was his wife.

"Do I need to follow you to the UK?"

Some surprises were that Yang Qian could say such words, but then he was also a little moved. He naturally could not avoid some political struggles when he went to the UK. If Yang Qian helped, he might be much easier, but... could she do this? Although Yang Qian's level is not high, she is also at the restrictive level. He can't guarantee that the country can agree to it if he leaves his nationality and goes to the UK.

"Do you still want to run for the British Prime Minister?"

To be honest, Yang Qian really didn't dare to think about that, but suddenly Wang Batian mentioned it, and she couldn't help but think about it. She was originally talking casually, but now Yang Qian is really a little moved.

The two of them were considered to be an old couple who were old and old. When they saw Yang Qian's expression, Wang Batian guessed what she thought, but some words had to be said in front: "Do you think the above will agree?"

“Why not?”

Yang Qian's rebellious question surprised Wang Batian, yes! Why not? The above obviously wanted to urge the success of this matter. Why did they do this? Didn't they see Duke Winston's influence in the UK?

Wang Batian is a novice in politics. He may not be able to maintain this influence. If the government can even hope to let a politician replace Wang Batian, it is obviously unlikely, but if Yang Qian follows him, then...
