I Become A Noble in England

With a safer idea in mind, Barron finally only took out 40,000 pounds to invest in this game.Of course, to be on the safe side, he did not sign the check directly to a gambling company, but placed the bets in four companies respectively, so that it would not be too conspicuous.

40,000 pounds. If calculated based on the odds of Senegal defeating France at 1:15 when he bought the ticket, Barron could get a bonus of 600,000 pounds before tax.

This can directly increase his principal to more than 600,000 pounds! 

Therefore, Barron is looking forward to the opening match of the Asahi World Cup.

The male servants at this time were no longer like those in the old days, where their horizons were limited to the circle of aristocrats... In fact, even in earlier times, those who could hold important servant positions in the homes of higher-ranking aristocrats were not really from the bottom of society. Many children from middle-class families, and even some college students, would use this as a springboard to accumulate their own network.

Therefore, Ramos did not say that he understood nothing. He stayed by Barron's side and watched him sign checks one by one to bet on this game. Naturally, he was not very calm in his heart.

After all, even if you are not a very experienced fan, you will understand the gap between the French team and a team like Senegal, which is from nowhere and has never been heard of. Now seeing Barron's behavior, he can't help but feel worried. He is very worried that this jumpy young master will squander his family fortune faster than he expected.

Barron also noticed Ramos' emotional changes, but he didn't say anything to him.

It's the same principle, words can be powerful at times, but most of the time, they are not as convincing as tangible achievements.

Therefore, no matter what he said, he could not make others change their minds before the results were revealed.

Moreover, as a noble lord, there was no need for him to waste too much time talking to the other party at this time. It was enough for everyone to do their own part well.

…

"Master Barron, your costume has been delivered. You can try it on now."

In his London apartment, Ramos pulled out several sets of clothes and laid them out in front of him.

This time when he came to London, in addition to betting on the Asahi World Cup, Barron also had another important thing to do, which was to attend the Queen's "Golden Jubilee Celebration".

June 2nd this year marks the 50th anniversary of the Queen's accession to the throne, and the whole of England will celebrate with a "Golden Jubilee Celebration".

However, since the beginning of May, many activities of this celebration have been carried out, and golden buses prepared for the celebration have begun to appear on the streets of London...

As one of the only twenty or so non-royal dukes left in England, the Devonshire family had already received an invitation from the royal family to participate in some of the activities of the "Golden Jubilee Celebration".

Originally, Barron's father and brother were invited, but because they died suddenly in an accident, Barron Cavendish, as the only heir to the Duke of Devonshire's family at that time, needed to represent the family to attend this celebration.

According to past traditions, Barron should avoid participating in some entertainment activities when a relative has just passed away, but an exception can be made if there is a very important event that he needs to attend.

And by the new century, the binding force of this restriction has become very weak, and this celebration is still very important to Barron and even the Duke of Devonshire's family.

First of all, Barron is the only heir to the Duke of Devonshire, but he has not yet completed the inheritance and title process. Therefore, his appearance in such a celebration is a very meaningful appearance for the entire Duke of Devonshire.

Moreover, in the view of the family trust fund manager Julia and the butler Sean, the Covendish family is now in great trouble. Barron represents the family to attend the Queen's Golden Jubilee celebrations to see if he can get help from the royal family or other aristocratic families at that time.

After all, there are only more than 20 non-royal ducal families left in the world today, so it is only natural for them to support each other.

Because the person who would attend the Golden Jubilee celebrations of the Duke of Devonshire's family had been replaced by Barron himself instead of his father and elder brother, the decision was made hastily, so there was no time to have his attire for the ceremony tailored to his measurements. He could only choose the most suitable suit from the high-end ready-made formal wear, and then have the tailor make some modifications based on his body shape.

Fortunately, Barron's body shape was very standard, so the tailors didn't have to work that hard.

After putting on this suit, Barron is eye-catching! 

His appearance is handsome but not too feminine, which makes people feel very sunny. In addition, he is nearly 190cm tall and has a well-proportioned body. He is like a clothes rack, which makes this suit perfectly set off Barron's aristocratic aura.

"Master, that day you will become the dream lover of all women..."

Even though he was a personal butler who was always by Barron's side and was very familiar with him, Ramos couldn't help but praise him when he saw his appearance.

"I think these clothes are nice, too. That's it."

Barron looked at his current body in the mirror and felt very satisfied.

…

The timing of the Asahi World Cup, held between RB and South Korea, was not particularly friendly to England, but it was okay.

The main reason is that London time is earlier than Asahi time, so the opening match of the World Cup between France and Senegal, which was held at 19:30 in the evening, was exactly noon in London.

If that's still okay, then the subsequent game at 14:30 in the afternoon will be around five or six in the morning in London - well, the fans will have to get up very early.

The result of the game did not deviate from the track of Barron's previous life. The French team still lost to Senegal with a score of 0:1.

This also means that with odds of 15 times, Barron successfully recovered 600,000 pounds from the 40,000 pounds he bet on this game.

The first battle was a victory!

Seeing such a result, especially after redeeming the prize, it was impossible for Barron to say that he was not happy and excited.

For him, the greater significance is that history has not changed, and has not gone astray! 

Therefore, the "future" in his memory can be used as a reference and believed in! 

In this way, he has a great confidence that he can win a great victory in this World Cup.

Of course, the betting method also requires strategy.

Unlike the 1998 World Cup in France, after four years of development, because online betting had already appeared at this time, the scale of global betting on the World Cup once again set a record.

According to what he found online, in the first match of the Asahi World Cup, the match between France and Senegal, the total bet size of the regular betting companies around the world exceeded 1.5 billion euros! 

However, even so, if the scope is narrowed down to the UK, Barron's bet amount still needs to be planned and not be too conspicuous.

Fortunately, it is 2002 now and the Gambling Act 2005 in the UK has not yet been implemented. Otherwise, the real-name system and limit on betting would probably force Barron to bet in neighboring France.
