The commoners and nobles who read the newspapers could not believe their eyes. In their hearts, the hierarchy was strict and sacred, and could not be broken! However, now all the commoners had the chance to become high and mighty nobles! To them, this was something that they did not even dare to dream about. The most excited of them were the wealthy merchants. Most of them were commoners. Although they were smart and had businesses all over the world, they had a lot of money, they were not inferior to some of the ancient aristocratic families.
However, no matter how much money they had, in the eyes of the nobles, they were still just country bumpkins.
This kind of contempt did not only involve the issue of face.
