British Civil Servant

v1 Chapter 413: keen capital

Regarding the practice of the mining plan in the Newfoundland forest area, Alan Wilson could not avoid it. Most of the Chinese workers who came here have never used chainsaws. After all, the kerosene lamps in China are all in the hands of the Rockefeller family.

With the amount of electricity generated in China, many people have never seen electric lights. During the liberation war, some soldiers saw electric lights for the first time and couldn't help but stick their heads over to light cigarettes.

Alan Wilson tried his best to select literate or smart people from the Chinese community who came to Malaya for more than two years. All the use of chainsaws and the use of electricity must be started from the beginning.

Although British Malaya is not a very advanced place, at least the Chinese have seen the pig run without eating pork.

There are local settlements at the mouth of the Humber River, and as the second largest settlement in Newfoundland, there are also electrical facilities. But since he arrived, the local residents have been deprived of electricity. Precious electricity must be used for roughing wood.

The second step is to collect all the fishing nets brought along with the fishing nets of the residents of the Humber Estuary, re-weave them into interception nets, and set them up in dangerous places to intercept the logs that drift down with the waves.

After Alan Wilson arrived here, he learned that the settlement was called Corner Brook Town, and came forward to explain the purpose of coming here to the mayor and the town's respected people.

After obtaining an understanding, the work officially began. However, an event that happened a few days later shocked the residents of Cornerbrook Town, and it was a bit of a laugh.

Logging is a dangerous job after all, because it has not yet officially started, but the Chinese workers are gradually getting used to it, trying to establish an unbreakable close relationship with his new friend Mr. Chainsaw. Wearing a hard hat in forestry production is not too much.

However, the simple living materials that Alan Wilson came to British Newfoundland this time were provided by the Hellman family. The simple camp bed is understandable, but the most incomprehensible thing for the residents of Corner Brook is why these Chinese workers are wearing German steel helmets.

"Isn't that about making the best use of things? It's saying that the quality is excellent, and it is much safer than a hard hat." Alan Wilson also wears a German M35 steel helmet. Department.

The shape of the German steel helmet is obviously different from that of most countries. Newfoundland has veterans who participated in the Second World War and immediately found out that this is not the equipment of the German army.

"Once autumn comes, I also ordered winter clothes in the Soviet Union. Don't be surprised when it arrives."

After explaining the German steel helmet in front of the residents of Corner Brook, Alan Wilson did not forget to joke.

With the increasing number of Chinese workers arriving in batches, the residents of Corner Brook must be a little uncomfortable. Alan Wilson said that if there is a communication problem, he should find himself, understand Chinese, and solve the problem if he finds it, and try not to disturb Kona. The lives of Brook residents.

As for electricity consumption, I hope that the residents of Cornerbrook will focus on the overall situation of Newfoundland. Once there are benefits, they will definitely compensate for the inconvenience of local residents.

As for the future of Corner Brook, Alan Wilson said that he would consider food processing, with the slogan of pure natural.

This is why he started talking nonsense after he recovered. He just arrived at Corner Brook for a few days, but he was exhausted. He was brought back by a group of Chinese workers. He didn't do physical work for a long time. OK, I was exhausted.

But it makes sense that man, as a member of the natural world, can become the master of the earth.

Early humans evolved long legs suitable for long distance running, long Achilles tendon, short toes compared to other animals, developed hip muscles, etc. These features are not necessary for walking, but they are very suitable for long distances. run.

More importantly, humans have a much more powerful cooling system than other animals. Humans have sweat glands all over their bodies, and as long as they are hydrated enough, their body temperature can be kept constant during prolonged exercise. That's why sweaty horses stood out from the pack and became an important means of transportation in ancient times.

And people can run dead horses. During the Soviet-Russian Civil War, the Soviet Red Army drove the Cossacks to the point where they set the record for a long march on foot, and drove the imperial-Russian cavalry all the way to Siberia.

Human endurance is invincible in long-distance sports. Generally speaking, humans are inferior to horses in long-distance running within one day, but they can surpass horses within three days. Once the time exceeds ten days, there is no animal on earth that is a human opponent.

Two days later, Alan Wilson's body re-adapted to the physical work and slept better.

Working together with a chainsaw every day, imparting some experience in living in high latitudes, and building houses, with the arrival of Chinese workers in batches and the distance between the logging area and Corner Brook, the Chinese workers must live directly in the logging area. district.

In fact, apart from the discomfort in the first few days, his body is not very old, and even Alan Wilson, who is at his peak, is now a problem that can be solved by sleeping in one night.

When he was in the deep mountains and forests, except for Pamela Mountbatten who got the mineral exploration rights in Australia. The most important thing in Europe is the coal and iron community plan led by Britain and France.

After the Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg accepted the Marshall Plan, they began to plan the idea of ​​a trilateral common market. This is also the first prototype of the coal-iron community in history, and it was already in the 1950s that Germany and France joined.

This time, Britain took the initiative to establish a coal and iron community with France, as long as there are several reasons. The first point is that the United Kingdom has promised the United States that it will contribute to the European common market. This is a condition that was exchanged for sterling control at the Paris Conference.

The United Kingdom has exchanged sterling control for helping to build the European common market, and it must fulfill its obligations. Otherwise, the Marshall Plan can be stopped at any time. After all, it is up to the Americans whether to give money or not.

Now, after all, the enemy is stronger and we are weaker. Since the United Kingdom believes that the value of the pound is more important, it must respond to the needs of the United States.

So whether it is willing or not, Britain has to make some efforts. Different from history, the United Kingdom has always occupied the British-occupied area as a wing to supplement its national strength. Now the United States has begun to test its words, whether it is possible to merge the two occupied areas of the United Kingdom and the United States.

Because the plan of flying on both wings is very effective, of course, the United Kingdom is unwilling to do so. The Marshall Plan is the icing on the cake for the United Kingdom. It is far from the historical help in the snow. London certainly does not want to spit it out.

On the other hand, the coal and iron community is used as a card to deal with the United States.

Naturally, this card has to be played well, and there is another reason. The United Kingdom hopes to legally deprive Germany of part of its interests through the framework of the coal and iron community, while Germany is still in a state of divisional occupation and has no government.

In this case, even if Germany has a government in the future, in the face of this fait accompli, it can only accept the fact that Britain takes advantage of it. It is somewhat difficult for the United Kingdom to do this by itself, and naturally it is necessary to do it together with France.

This idea was described in Alan Wilson's report to Prime Minister Attlee on Two Wings to Europe.

However, the United Kingdom is an island country. The interests of the United Kingdom and the European continent are not naturally opposed, and the more often they are opposed.

Britain is very fond of the fragmented continent with serious internal friction. Back then, the UK acted as a scumbag in Europe and used the continental balance of power policy to stir up the continent and make all the fishermen benefit from it, thus creating an empire on which the sun never sets.

Now the United States and the Soviet Union are in a better situation than others. Because of the control of the pound and the exchange rate problem, London has to agree to the request of the United States to promote the European common market, but it is not exactly the same as the urgent psychology of France. Negotiations on the coal and iron community took a year and a half to start, and the time was delayed on the possibility of delaying the merger plan proposed by the United States.

France, on the other hand, is obviously more attentive. Although the UK does not seem to be enthusiastic enough, compared with itself for hundreds of years, the UK can really promote the European common market. In the eyes of the French, it can be regarded as a prodigal son.

The French don't know. London even thought of the rhetoric of procrastination. The political situation in France is unstable and the government is always changed.

Now, London especially wants Paris to change government, so it can take the opportunity to wait and see, and then renegotiate.

If Paris does not change the government, London will formulate a half-year negotiation plan for this purpose~lightnovelpub.net~ After the current chairman of the Council of Ministers takes office for half a year, the framework of the coal and iron community will be adopted.

However, unlike the historical community, this time the community that the United Kingdom is willing to play a role in is more powerful, and there will definitely be no objection from any member state of the European Union in the future, so it will be difficult to make a decision.

After all, Germany and Italy have not yet shaken off the shackles of defeated countries. Britain and France are two permanent members. The coal and iron community created by them is definitely not as good as the European Union in the future.

As for Alan Wilson in the deep mountains and old forests, he is still working as a diligent lumberjack, bragging with the Chinese workers.

"Lord Zhongtang, how did an island country in the United Kingdom get to where it is today?" Su Yang, carrying a chainsaw, followed Alan Wilson's example and walked like a goose step, ready to start killing a book that was as thick as his waist.

"The standard of living in England has already surpassed that of Europe since the Agricultural Revolution in the fifteenth century." Because of the noise of logging, Alan Wilson said loudly, "At that time, the standard of living should have been much better than that of other civilizations. After all, there are only five million people in the mainland, and the pressure of life is much less than that of a civilization with a large population."

When the chief executive was a happy lumberjack, some outsiders appeared in the capital St. John's. Capital has always been the most sensitive. Even if the transformation of Newfoundland's tax haven is not widely publicized, people still come to the door by smell.
