"It's all because blood is thicker than water." Alan Wilson responded with a smile, "You Americans have heard this sentence."

The word "blood is thicker than water" is not a Chinese idiom, but an English proverb, but to make this word famous and known to the Chinese, it has to start in 1860.

The British-French allied forces' attack on Taku was frustrated, and the American fleet in the Far East joined the war, making this sentence one of the famous words in American history.

When the general in command was asked why he violated the American principle of neutrality by assisting the British fleet fighting against China at Taku, he defended it with blood thicker than water.

"Of course, blood is thicker than water, but now China is also an important member of the Allies." Wilkins clearly understood the historical origin of blood thicker than water, and he was quite politically conscious when he answered.

The elites are different from those naive red necks in the United States! Alan Wilson said in his heart, and gestured, "Welcome to British India, I have a few reminders before that, the currency of British India is rupees. In principle, the US dollars you carry should be exchanged for rupees. India use, this is a new regulation since the beginning of the year, I believe everyone should be able to understand this.”

A colony is a colony! As soon as Wilkins heard it, he knew that this was a closed-loop currency used to reserve dollars.

Not to mention that people who work in banks have experience in this area, which is what it really means.

Mosquitoes are meat no matter how small they are. Alan Wilson, a civil servant in the British Empire, of course always puts the interests of the empire first.

Now the mainland is struggling to recover from the aftermath of the war. As the crown jewel of the British Empire, British India must do its part and play an exemplary role.

Out of sensitivity to money, Wilkins said, "I believe we won't suffer, right?"

"Absolutely not, I will definitely pay attention to this matter and make a fair exchange." Alan Wilson nodded solemnly, and even allowed the other party to take advantage of the new banknotes just off the production line of the printing machine to exchange for the other party's hand. Dollars, and wish each other a good time in British India.

The first contact between the two sides left a deep impression on the other side. In Wilkins' eyes, Alan Wilson showed great restraint, but his greediness could also be seen from the side.

As for Americans like Wilkins, Alan Wilson believes that when leaving British India, they should leave cleanly, which has a positive effect on the financial burden of the British Empire.

The two screened back and forth, chatting one after another, talking nonsense without nourishment, the atmosphere was relaxed and comfortable.

"For a long time, the United States has not paid special attention to Asian affairs." Wilkins emphasized with a smile, "especially British India, the treasure of the British Empire. But I believe that it is not too late for good things, and it is also to start paying attention now. It's too late. I believe Mr. Allen should welcome us too, right?"

"Of course, everyone is a family." Alan Wilson nodded with a smile, "We face common threats and should unite to maintain world peace."

In the face of the threat of world peace and talking about maintaining world peace, Alan Wilson kept practicing Tai Chi. He wouldn't take the initiative to enter the substantive stage if he didn't take the initiative to speak. .

If Wilkins and even Morgan behind him think that it is just an assistant commissioner who wants to do some scandals of selling state-owned assets at a low price and making a fortune from his own pockets, then Alan Wilson will be underestimated.

The essential purpose of Alan Wilson is still to serve the British Empire. He wants to make a situation for British India, bring in American capital, transfer the realized funds to the mainland, and contribute to the struggle of the mainland from the aftermath of the war. fire.

He didn't want to explain it by cutting leeks in a game. After all, the other party is not a small role, but what if Nehru will do in the future? That has nothing to do with Alan Wilson.

The money invested by US Steel will be turned into the United Kingdom's dollar reserves.

Of course, he, an assistant commissioner in British India, could not complete all this. Fortunately, the contact between the two sides has just begun. When the matter is almost done, he can report to the local government that is looking for money everywhere.

However, if Wilkins mentioned it intentionally or unintentionally, it will definitely be beneficial. The goal."

"Very fair and honest. From the first time I saw Mr. Allen, I could see it, otherwise I wouldn't have become a commissioner's assistant at such a young age." Wilkins hid his contempt deep in his heart and gave Without hesitation, he said, "It should be possible for us ordinary tourists to go around in British India."

"Of course it is, it's a land of freedom, it's just that I don't recommend going to certain places, knowing that it's a difficult time for British India, the drought and plague are breaking out in some places. I'm not preventing anything, but It's for everyone's safety." Alan Wilson slowly suggested that people like Wilkins better inform themselves in advance where they are going, and make arrangements for themselves.

"Mysore state should not have the above factors, right?" Wilkins finally made it clear that this is the purpose of his coming to British India.

"The local scenery is pleasant and full of exotic customs. I hope that tourists from afar will have a good time." Alan Wilson simply responded and ended the first meeting in a series.

The next day, the U.S. dollars carried by the business elites of Chase Bank were exchanged for rupees, the currency of British India. The brand-new Indian rupees are placed in front of everyone. The new banknotes are beautiful, and the smell of the banknotes is also refreshing.

"I wish you a pleasant journey in British India. My assistant love... Andy, will help you deal with things in South India!" Alan Wilson just finished his words, and then took out the Hyderabad State Commissioner's Contact information.

"Once we have determined some things, some of the benefits brought by things will arrive soon." Wilkins took the initiative to reach out and shook hands with Alan Wilson, implying the treatment after the completion of the matter.

Originally, Alan Wilson wanted to say that he could go to Alyssa, but when he thought of the group of Americans in front of his mouth, it would be better to temporarily change his tune and let these people find like-minded Andy.

People like Wilkins harassed British expatriates as soon as they arrived in New Delhi. They are a perfect match for Andy, who is looking for a prostitute and doesn't give money. Maybe they have a common language. As for Alyssa, although she is not a peerless beauty, she is also beautiful Forget it, with long red hair, it is inevitable that Americans with a brain in their **** will not get into trouble.

If something happens, Alan Wilson will be very embarrassed. He can't be shot. Now it's a civilized society. We can only set up cannons to let these Americans enjoy the treatment of the Indian uprising.

"Have a nice trip." Alan Wilson waved his hand and watched the money-losing boys on their way, ready to return to the Governor's Mansion.

How busy is his assistant commissioner, not to mention the health bill, he has to worry about what Nehru should do now, such as formulating a bill to ensure that foreign-funded enterprises do not make much money.

It is not enough to make no money at all. If there is no money at all, no one will invest in British India. It is a bill to ensure that companies from other countries besides British companies invest in the subcontinent, and they will not make much money.

Although in the original history, India has done a good job of stumbling upon the introduction of foreign-funded enterprises. But Alan Wilson felt it could do better.

The same is foreign capital, even if Britain becomes independent, as long as all the hidden piles buried in the colonial period are not dug up.

British companies will have an advantage over companies in other countries. Even if Nehru promotes social reforms in India in the future, this advantage will still exist.

After all, Alan Wilson doesn't believe that Nehru~lightnovelpub.net~ can really turn India into a country like the Soviet Union.

Wilkins doesn't need to thank him for the small work he has done, don't ask, it's the special relationship between the United Kingdom and the United States...

The work of the Governor's Palace is quite boring at present, and it is even more boring in British India. Except for the American tourists who have just arrived, every day is nothing more than a problem of food.

However, since the United States Steel Corporation has donated a shipment of grain, it can be used to quench thirst first.

Although there is still no food to eat, even if it arrives, there may not be victims of the disaster, but the spiritual boost is endless.

The spiritual power brought by it can help many people get through this drought.

As for who this credit belongs to, Alan Wilson, who has deep credit and fame, is definitely not suitable. Of course, it is the Indian goddess Vivien Leigh.

According to a source who did not want to be named, Alan Wilson pointed out that some temples are preparing to offer Vivien Leigh. What's wrong with Fengshen?

Since the news has been released by the assistant commissioner who did not want to disclose his name, it will naturally be published in the newspaper, and there will naturally be people who agree with it, and those who disagree are not heard.

The voices that were not taken seriously disappeared, and the rest of the people naturally agreed, and the matter was done.

"Assistant Allen, have you seen today's newspaper?" Edel asked with today's newspaper at lunchtime, with the news that Vivien Leigh would be consecrated.

"No, I thought you were talking about the second round of debate between the Congress Party and the Muslim League in London." Alan Wilson said with an ignorant look, "We are civil servants, and we need to read some meaningful newspapers. This newspaper is for Indians and is equivalent to entertainment news."
