v1 Chapter 343: what is a prime minister

"He even wants to thank us." Alan Wilson said very proudly. As for why he chose Nehru instead of Patel, he said that the Labour Party is now in power instead of the Conservative Party, and it is enough to explain Patel.

Words can't be dead, maybe there will be a time when Patel's help is needed. It may be said that the Labour Party is optimistic about Nehru, and if the Conservative Party is the deputy prime minister of British India, it is Patel, which may make Patel feel more comfortable.

In fact, even within the Congress party, because of Gandhi's preference for Nehru's relationship, and Nehru's age advantage is too obvious, it is difficult for Patel to defeat the young and powerful Nehru.

Placing the blame on Labour helps Patel's supporters get a delusion. That is, Nehru was appointed by the British, and Patel's failure was only because Nehru was valued by the British.

In this way, under the inspiration of this illusion, the conservatives of the Congress Party will not be so convinced of Nehru in their hearts.

It will help to unite the military heart of the conservatives. Even if Patel is old, if he dies young as in history, the conservatives will not fall apart for a while.

In the final analysis, from the perspective of the British Empire, the post-independence India is still doing very well, which is good for everyone.

It would be nice to have Nehru spend the rest of his time completing the integration of India and then finish the mission and die.

Alan Wilson's final blitz came just before London's official announcement of the candidate for Deputy Prime Minister of British India.

He and Pedro, the representative of the Portuguese Governor's Office, officially signed the secret agreement on Goa. In fact, it should have been signed a long time ago. It is just waiting for Goa to lay a solid foundation and complete the construction of the peace settlements around Goa.

Alan Wilson, who has not been in contact with the Portuguese recently, has also helped with some key political guidance. Just like the three countries of Bhutan, Sikkim and Nepal in the north, the most important thing is to establish a passable identity system.

You must know that the most important thing in the subcontinent is people. If the Indians want to infiltrate, it is difficult for the surrounding countries to withstand it.

The establishment of an identity system should come sooner rather than later. As long as the partition of India and Pakistan begins, the peaceful believers around Goa will naturally become protective embankments, keeping out the sneaky population infiltration of India.

After the signing of the secret contract, Alan Wilson looked at Pedro and said, "Mr. Pedro, it is better to wait until the end of British India to announce the entire contents of the secret contract. This is the fulfillment of our friendship!"

"It will help you British to shirk responsibility." Pedro understood, and then frowned, "But we are going to start a territorial replacement, and this kind of action cannot be concealed from the Congress Party."

"You don't need to mention the amount of land to be replaced." Alan Wilson reminded, "Article 10 of the secret agreement, the port of Goa will be used as a naval base for the joint Anglo-Portuguese. We must keep our promise."

"Of course, Portugal and the British Empire have been allies for hundreds of years. We defeated Spain together." Pedro said solemnly, "Goa's naval base, the Royal Navy will always have the right to use it."

"Then thank Portugal." Alan Wilson breathed a sigh of relief. "The territorial exchange can start now. Before London has announced who is the deputy prime minister of British India, it is time to announce."

On August 27, the Portuguese Governor's Office of Goa announced that Christians who migrated to Dadra-Nagar Haveli, Daman and Diu went to Goa to live, and the migration will begin immediately.

At this time, the industrious assistant to the British Indian Commissioner was busy with the next thing. For the second time, he talked with the representatives of the Tata Group and the Birla family who had finished fundraising. The Bora family who didn't come.

The leader of the Bora family also came this time. Gonzaya Taz Bora started an apprenticeship in the family business at the age of thirteen, and at the age of sixteen, he was able to be on his own. After inheriting the family business in 1929, he began to enter the industry and established his position in key industries such as aluminum, cement and chemical industry, and became the founder of Birla Group.

The last time Gonzaya Bola didn't come was because the Bola family was very close to the Congress party. The first call of the Governor-General of British India, Gonzaya Bora took a wait-and-see approach for political reasons.

But when both the Tata and Birla families started raising money, Gonzaya Bora couldn't sit still. If the British are determined to hand over part of the industry to the two named families, once the two families absorb the industry, they will leave the Bora family behind in terms of strength.

For the arrival of Gonzaya Bola, Alan Wilson was not surprised, nor did he mean unwelcome.

He also knows that private usury in India has been rampant recently, and these local Indian elites are doing everything they can to fill the void after the British left and seize a favorable position.

The problem of private usury in India has always been very serious, which can be seen from the demonetization order of Modi, who started the demonetization order in the name of cracking down on black money laundering. The usury business in India is so prosperous in the 21st century. More so now.

However, this has nothing to do with him. It is not suitable for the UK to interfere in the internal affairs of the Indians at this time. As for the Indians who are trapped in loan sharks, can they use Xier to pay off their debts without paying the money?

What's wrong with this, it is very in line with India's national conditions. Selling her daughter can also solve her own debt problem.

He just wants to use money to fill the local fiscal deficit. The figure of 100 million pounds is indeed an astronomical figure from the perspective of private Indian enterprises, but since these ethnic entrepreneurs are here again today, it shows that they still have a way to raise these funds. money.

Besides, there is absolutely no mistreatment of these big Indian compradors, and the value of the industry involved is far more than 100 million pounds. In the next few decades, these family-controlled industries will bring several times and dozens of times the return.

Iron and steel, chemicals, and textiles do not mention how much profit they are, they are alone in a semi-monopoly environment, and they can make a lot of money by tapping the market inside the subcontinent.

The industries most valued by these big compradors are undoubtedly one of them.

The Mysore iron ore previously sold to the United States is the iron ore with the most convenient shipping, the highest quality and the lowest cost. But in terms of reserves, the Bairadil iron ore is the source of support for the British Indian steel industry.

The quality of the ore of the Bairadil iron ore is only slightly worse than that of the iron ore in Mysore. But it is also sufficient in the steel industry.

One-fifth of the reserves are of similar quality to the Mysore iron ore, an absolute national pillar. Whoever gets it will make a golden mountain in his hand.

The Tata Group, the Birla family, and the Bora family who just arrived are all eager to try. Although their reason tells them that this iron ore is not something that one family can eat, who can control this kind of greed.

This time Alan Wilson kept an eye out and found an open manor to talk about the problem to avoid being shrouded in curry. It disappeared directly from the Governor's Palace of British India.

At that time, Prime Minister Lloyd George, with the pen in his hand swiped at random on the world map, a new country was born. Today's Alan Wilson also moves his fingers, and a monopoly capitalist in an industry is born.

For these big comprador's gifts, Alan Wilson does not refuse to accept all the gifts, but he still does his business impartially. He accepts all the gifts, which is equivalent to not receiving any gifts. Is there any problem?

For the ownership of iron ore, both the Tata family and the Birla family have expectations. The origin of the Tata family can be regarded as a representative of saving the country through industry. Back then when he returned from studying in the West and became the head of the family, he was inspired to develop heavy industry.

At that time, the Indian industrial bourgeoisie had gradually formed and developed. Due to the obstruction of the colonial government, the plans of some large industrial capitalists in Mumbai to develop heavy industry in the early 20th century fell through.

However, only the Tata family obtained experts and machinery from the United States and Germany after being refused assistance from the United Kingdom, and successfully issued shares in the country while the movement of Indians to buy Indian goods was on the rise.

The Tata family, which is based in the steel industry, is bound to win this. To this end, it has adopted a variety of means and combined a lot of contacts to get the largest iron ore in India.

The key to changing from a comprador to a monopoly capitalist is now in the hands of Alan Wilson, and there is even time to remind the arriving guests to pay attention to gentlemanly manners and not lose their status because of quarrels.

At the same time as important talks concerning the formation of India's future super-rich class are taking place.

At 2 pm GMT on August 29th, Prime Minister Attlee of the British Empire announced in the London Parliament that Nehru was nominated as Deputy Prime Minister of British India, and Governor Mountbatten was also Prime Minister of British India~lightnovelpub.net~ Xiang The steps for the handover of power in India have officially begun.

For many days, supporters of British Indian Nehru and Patel have attacked and abused each other because of who is the candidate for British Indian Deputy Prime Minister, but when the final news came, they were still immersed in this good news. In it, the entire subcontinent has become a sea of ​​joy.

Before the Prime Minister officially announced Nehru as Deputy Prime Minister of British India, British Indian Commissioner Sir Barron had met with Nehru once and said that Prime Minister Attlee was still optimistic about Nehru, who had a similar philosophy to the Labour Party. As the future candidate to lead India, only in the hands of Nehru will India become a powerful country.

Nehru had always believed that he had a greater advantage than Patel, but he was apprehensive when there was no definite news. After the official news came, he was also inevitably excited and happy for his victory over Patel.

More importantly, the dream he has pursued for decades is now at hand. He is no longer a party leader who resists colonial rule, but a prime minister of a big country. The future India will surely become a powerful country in his hands.

What is a prime minister? Nehru leaned back tactically and leaned back in his chair, very satisfied.
