"It's a good note, but whether the opposition parties will raise objections, you must know that in Mr. Churchill's eyes, the Labour Party is a potential Soviet spy." Alexander Cadogan smiled and ridiculed the relationship between the Conservative Party and the Labour Party .

"That's a problem for the ruling party. I believe the prime minister and ministers can deal with it. Don't worry about it, let's talk about our work first, go to Australia and New Zealand, and deal with the problem of the two countries becoming sovereign states." Edward Bridges He rounded up the words again and said, "In addition to the established things, the most important thing is to stabilize the influence of the pound."

"It's not just Australia and New Zealand. At the recent cabinet meeting, the prime minister was most concerned about the pound. Let's talk about British India. If the British Empire has to leave temporarily at the end of the British India, it is also necessary to ensure that the pound remains in the pound. The currency status of India's foreign trade settlement."

Alexander Cadogan nodded. From the expression on Edward Bridges' face, he understood that this matter was no trivial matter. "But now that the US dollar is linked to gold, the confrontation is very difficult."

"Yes, that's right. We can only hope that the vast colonies will still have their inertia and have recognized the pound. Now that the enemy is strong and we are weak, what we do is to delay. If all the problems caused by the war in the country are solved. Look. From the perspective of the world, even if there is only 10% left, it is a huge profit, isn't it?"

Edward Bridges mentioned the latest bottom line of the Cabinet regarding the independence of British India, which is that if India is independent, foreign trade must be settled in British pounds.

The sterling area, which is currently strictly pegged to the pound, is in the Commonwealth of Dominions and territories except Canada.

Ireland, Iceland, Maldives, Kuwait, Jordan, Oman, Bahrain, Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Yemen, Sierra Leone and other countries, autonomous territories and regions use sterling as the benchmark currency. Settled in British Pounds.

Canada really has no choice, it is too close to the United States, and the United States has surpassed the United Kingdom in absolute strength. To re-incorporate Canada into the pound area is equivalent to declaring war with the United States.

Although the war has weakened Britain's economic strength, at present, about 40% of international trade is still settled in British pounds. London is still an important financial center in the world, but it is no longer the only one.

At the Breston Conference, in the currency war between the United Kingdom and the United States, the United States had the upper hand, and the conference was controlled by the United States. Under the leadership of the United States government, all countries in the conference except the United Kingdom chose the United States plan. Britain was forced to give up its plan, but it also won the right to continue to use the pound in the pound area.

At present, the United States is in a strong position, and all the United Kingdom can do is to maintain the current situation as much as possible, and it can be delayed day by day. Hold on to the already crumbling tiger frame of the British Empire.

Even so, maintaining the value of the pound was reluctant, and Britain had already lost its value once during the war. The pound has changed from about 1 to 4 to the US dollar to more than 1 to 2. If the difficulties cannot be overcome as soon as possible, the pound may depreciate.

"You suggest the foreign secretary to visit the Soviet Union, but you cannot follow, you maintain your itinerary to Australia and New Zealand. As long as you can persuade the foreign secretary to visit the Soviet Union, I will persuade the Prime Minister to arrange the itinerary so that you can go to Australia and New Zealand without Interrupted by the Foreign Secretary."

Edward Bridges set up a split-up phalanx in front of Alexander Cadogan.

"It's good, it's better to avoid the chancellor from going with you," Alexander Cadogan nodded. "But will the chancellor see it?"

Edward Bridges changed his face and said solemnly, "Alexander, we must admit that the world has never been fair, he is ruled by power, so of course a visit to the Soviet Union takes precedence over two Dominions. , isn't it? It's a big stage, a great opportunity to build on the foreign secretary's influence."

"So for the matter of the two Dominions, there is no need to bother the Minister of Foreign Affairs to go out in person." Alexander Cadogan showed an understanding expression, "The Minister should still do more important things, such as the Soviet Union."

uh-huh! Edward Bridges nodded with a knowing expression, quite satisfied with the understanding of the Permanent Undersecretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

If Alan Wilson was here, he would definitely propose to start a quantitative easing policy in British India to scavenge private gold in India and use it to stabilize the value of the pound.

Even if he is not in London, he is still helping his motherland. Even if it is impossible for the monarchs of many powerful local states to have wealth, even if it is impossible to calculate it in billions, it is normal to have hundreds of millions of properties.

And as far as Alan Wilson knows, none of these native states is in the stage of population explosion. After all, it is not close to the banks of the Ganges River, which is full of people. This shows that there is potential.

In the final stage of the communication in Hyderabad, Alan Wilson came up with the last important topic, saying that the British India Governor's Office was considering the issue of disarmament and clarified the operation.

If the states can sacrifice some interests in the land, they can absorb some soldiers who have gone through the war and become part of the power of the states.

Of course, things are all risky, and he also explained that these soldiers may be pro-National Party, but they will ultimately stand on that side. Let these soldiers who have left the army find a sense of belonging.

No matter if you believe in religion, you are a family, or if blood is thicker than water, in the end, there is no benefit. For profit, whether it is religion or blood, you can lean back.

Different from transferring property and pushing grace orders, this communication of absorbing veterans is the most unsolicited suggestion by representatives of major princely states. If the first two suggestions still make them doubtful, the appearance of this suggestion has made many princely states feel uneasy. The representative understood that the assistant to the British Indian Commissioner in front of him was really his own.

Nearly three million Indian soldiers participated in World War II, and this force is extremely vulnerable to the influence of the Congress party. Alan Wilson's retirement plan was designed to make these unstable factors disappear quickly.

Today in Hyderabad, Alan Wilson raised it in front of Ali Khan and Salaman Khan and others, hoping that these soldiers with war experience would be accepted.

As long as these princely states agree to place some soldiers, they will give leeway and treatment arrangements. It can greatly enhance the strength of the native state. If the worst future appears, the native state must be able to let these soldiers stand on its side, and there is a possibility for Nehru to cast his arms.

"Of course, I never hope for the worst outcome, but I have some doubts about the Congress Party. That's why I offer three pieces of advice for such a bad future. The transfer of property is to share the risks, and the division of the descendants is to let the Congress Party. There is no excuse, and the final acceptance of retired soldiers is to let these soldiers with combat experience become the confidence of the native country to protect themselves."

"Actually, what does the matter of British India have to do with me? I don't have to show up at all. When the resistance doesn't subside, I leave British India directly. But as a person who has worked here for many years, I understand that the native country is a friend of the British Empire. , to help as much as possible and to follow up once I get back to New Delhi."

"Alan, we monarchs have a consistent attitude towards the British Empire, and have always treated the native commissioners sent with great respect." Salaman Khan first hinted, "I know about this, you risk it too. It is a great risk, after all, it involves the whereabouts of hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and I will not let the gentlemen who seek our interests work in vain."

"It's natural!" Ali Khan, who was sitting on the ground, said, "This matter is complicated and consumes energy. So Alan will definitely be very tired. We have a fruit in Hyderabad, which is very refreshing to eat. I will choose it when the time comes. Send some over."

Seeing Alan Wilson disapprovingly, Ali Khan added, "The golden-yellow fruit can whet your appetite at a glance. I dare say no one doesn't like it."

gold! Alan Wilson understood at once, and said in a righteous manner, "This is also for the well-being of hundreds of thousands of soldiers. We can't let the soldiers who participated in the war shed blood and tears. I don't have much credit myself. The generosity of Lord Bang is really worthy of these soldiers' gratitude."

"The gratitude of the soldiers also needs someone to guide us. At this point, Alan can help us a lot." Salaman Khan paused after saying this, "But if you can consider religious issues, I myself Thank you even more."

"This is all based on the principle of voluntariness. It is logical for UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Hindu soldiers to go to the land of the Indian Maharaja." Alan Wilson's answer made Salaman Khan completely at ease.

This trip to Hyderabad has finally achieved phased results. Originally, he wanted to continue to consolidate the results with Vivien Leigh here, but he received a telegram from Sir Barron, saying that the Minister of Indian Affairs, Lord Pesik-Lawrence , you can now sign a memorandum with the monarchs of the monarchy, on behalf of the British government, to clarify the protection of the legal property of these monarchs.

"Is this too urgent?" Alan Wilson pondered hard, not knowing what happened, not knowing that Sir Barron, an Indian original schedule, directly made the Minister of Indian Affairs want to go back to the country.

"What's the matter?" Vivien Leigh stopped the knife and fork in her hand and asked with curiosity, "Is the governor's mansion pressing?"

"The telegram said that the cabinet minister was going to return to China, but I don't seem to remember it so soon!" Alan Wilson said with a question mark on his face, "I want to settle the matter of the British and Indian Actors Guild before the minister returns to China."

Vivien Leigh's ears perked up all of a sudden, licked her lips and said charmingly, "It's hard for you, I will thank you well."
