British Civil Servant

v1 Chapter 417: Governor's Craft

As a colony with an area of ​​400,000 square kilometers, but with only such a small population, there is naturally no environment that cannot reach the sky, so it is quite normal to say that the news leaked, and Alan Wilson did not blame it.

St. Johns was originally the base camp against the merger with Canada. The Governor judged the situation and knew that the public opinion was good here. This is quite normal, not to mention that he is really thinking about the future of Newfoundland.

In the eyes of Newfoundland residents, Alan Wilson has not been able to say that he has always responded, but he has some influence, and his hard-working key policies are still effective. Politicians are afraid that they will not have a sense of existence.

Although he is not a politician, the principle is the same. For example, in China's agricultural era, every official does not like the Wanmin umbrella, even if the official is a corrupt official.

This is what Alan Wilson is pursuing now. The residents of Newfoundland benefit from it, and he can also use it to jump to a bigger stage. Both parties can have a win-win outcome.

In the next few days, some local elites with high reputation came to the Governor's Mansion for verification and discussed with Alan Wilson about the future development issues discussed in the broadcast.

"Of course, Newfoundland's per capita resources are so high, isn't it normal to attract prying eyes?"

Alan Wilson said in an insightful tone, "The fishery resources of Newfoundland's fishing grounds alone are billions of dollars in income. Even if you put that, it's billions, enough to support any welfare reform in Newfoundland. To be honest, Newfoundland Conditions in Finland are too good, even better than Australia."

Before iron ore was discovered, his words were absolutely true, and besides, there were oil resources in the shallow waters of Newfoundland. Even if the technology is immature and cannot be mined now, it can be used in the future.

In the future, the reason why Scotland thinks that the days of independence will be better is not because the North Sea oil fields will be owned by Scotland after independence?

The residents of St. John's, who account for half of Newfoundland's population, oppose the annexation to Canada because they feel that once annexed to Canada, the Newfoundland fishing grounds will not be under their own control and will be subject to the Canadian federal government, and thus will suffer losses.

Alan Wilson, who harbored misfortune, began to step on Canada and the United States, saying that Canada's welfare is indeed much higher than that of the United States, and the cost of living of Canadians is indeed much lower than that of Americans.

Then he changed the subject and said that with the innovation of fishing technology and the export of timber to the European market, Newfoundland's income will exceed Canada's in the next few years on a per capita basis. "I believe that after three years, considering benefits and costs, The factor, the standard of living in North America, should be Newfoundland, Canada and the United States, and it should be in this order.”

"After all, the United States is separated from Europe by an Atlantic Ocean, and there is no impetus to urgently improve welfare. This is different from the domestic situation. Now domestic health care and medical care must be improved to reduce the burden on citizens."

This kind of remark made many representatives look fascinated. In fact, this is one of the reasons why the Labrador region wants to join Canada. However, for the residents of St. Johns, compared to the fishery being managed by Canada, Welfare benefits are not the decisive factor to shake their autonomy.

In fact, the same is true. When the 150,000 Newfoundland citizens with voting rights voted in the referendum, 78,000 voted in favor of annexing Canada, and 71,000 remained autonomous. This result is really reluctant. .

Even Alan Wilson felt that as long as he worked hard, Newfoundland could remain under British control and exist in the Commonwealth as a dominion.

Newfoundland has the potential to easily surpass Canada and the United States, because in order to appease his fiancée, it is an apology for temporarily not revealing iron ore, Alan Wilson said that the Grand Beach in eastern Newfoundland has geological formations of oil.

As early as the beginning of the century, the United States has carried out offshore oil exploration around the Gulf of Mexico. In the 1930s and 1940s, the offshore oil exploration technology was very mature. Now, the difficulty of offshore oil exploration lies in finding time, not technology.

It doesn't matter if you can't find it. Alan Wilson said that there are traces of oil resources, and it's enough to let the residents of Newfoundland have this expectation in their hearts.

Anyway, in the impression of the residents of Newfoundland, whether it was a real meeting or a broadcast, he, the Governor, has always been like that. The situation is either good or good, and there is no bad time at all.

After leaving the Humber River logging area, Alan Wilson did not rest there. If there is any change, it is that the number of broadcasts has increased slightly, and the citizens of Newfoundland have also learned some new vocabulary, such as attracting investment. ...

Another habit is to take a lunch break when I have nothing to do. This is completely a habit left in the logging area. After all, it is physical work. Even if there is only a little rest time, squinting for a while is better than keeping your eyes open.

But Alan Wilson didn't sleep very well at noon, and suddenly woke up before twelve o'clock. Only his eyes were still closed. He always felt that there was something in his heart, and he thought about it for a while, but he couldn't think of what it was. Of course it can't be a Newfoundland thing, who would be so hard to let go of work?

"Mr. Allen, a ship from the United States is docked." Savievich pushed in. "It seems that a few stars have arrived, and many local residents are watching."

Alan Wilson jumped up like a spring, and at the same time fiddled with his hair with both hands, washed his face, and did not forget to instruct, "I will greet you immediately, so that guests who come from afar can feel the warmth of Newfoundland."

To be honest, the four female stars who came here are much more popular than when Alan Wilson first arrived in St. Johns. He has to admit that beautiful women are more popular than rough gentlemen, everywhere.

The residents of St. John's were extremely welcoming to the four actresses who came to the door, and the streets and the windows on both sides were full of people. A stark contrast to when he first came to St. John's.

"Dear Ms. Vivien Leigh, thank you for being invited by Newfoundland to come here." Alan Wilson hurried all the way to the pier, and as the local chief executive, expressed his welcome to these actresses who came here to help the poor.

"Mr. Allen is so polite. As an Englishman, it is right for me to help the subjects of the British Empire." Vivien Leigh suppressed the enthusiasm in her chest and replied in an unfamiliar tone.

A hint of understanding flashed in the eyes of Heidi Lamarr and Ingrid Bergman. Just as Pauline Goldie, who had never seen Alan Wilson, was about to say something, Ingrid Bergman tugged at the corner of her clothes.

Ellen Wilson led the way from the front, and the four actresses became the focus of the residents of St. John's. Cheers continued to come from both sides, and Vivien Leigh nodded friendly to express their respect for St. John's. This reaction made the atmosphere even more. of enthusiasm.

In fact, there are no members of Vivien Leigh's girlfriend group who are too young. Although they are all born beautiful and can maintain their classic image on the screen, they are inevitably facing the crisis of downhill.

Some members have a sense of crisis. For example, when they came to Baolian Gaodai this time, in fact, it was only Baolian Gaodai who felt a sense of crisis. In the eyes of others, there was no crisis at all.

Ellen Wilson arranged for the four actresses to live in the Governor's Palace, and he was going to go to Parliament to deal with it for a period of time.

"Newfoundland's conditions are poor, grievances... Ms. Vivien Leigh, and your friends." Allen Wilson said when he led the four actresses to the gate of the Governor's Palace, "All in all, thank you for your help."

"Let's talk about work first!" Seeing Alan Wilson leaving, Vivien Leigh said, "As the local chief executive, Mr. Alan must have a plan in mind, and we want to talk."

"It is better to be respectful than to obey!" Alan Wilson followed the trend and entered the Governor's Mansion where he originally lived.

After the door was closed, Vivien glanced at the unfamiliar Alan Wilson and said, "It really looks like it, Governor Wilson. You don't know how tired I am from this trip."

"Vivian, don't say that, so people are watching outside, do I say I'm familiar with you?" Alan Wilson apologized with a bitter face, "Always take your reputation into consideration, you are the British Empire. national treasure."

Alan Wilson talked for a while, and then changed the conversation, "I'm tired, I learned to set bones with Hua Gong. If you don't mind, I'll press it for you."

Vivien Leigh coughed softly, reminding Ellen Wilson to pay attention to the occasion and that there were other people there.

With good conscience, Alan Wilson really learned how to straighten his bones, and he was exhausted when he first arrived at the Humber River. If it weren't for the workers with this kind of craftsmanship among the Chinese workers, why would he have to lie down for a few days~lightnovelpub.net~ Vivien Leigh obviously recalled that when she was in New Delhi, an assistant commissioner used the guise of relieving fatigue, and finally Taking advantage, she was wrong, and this time she definitely won't.

Gaba! Alan Wilson, who had already practiced with several workers, performed his craft on Ingrid Bergman, accompanied by a bone sound from time to time, "Actually, Greta's temperament is very suitable for Newfoundland, which is the kind of iceberg, With a melancholy temperament, it would be more suitable to shoot when it was snowing.”

"I called her, and she said she wasn't feeling well and couldn't come." Ingrid Bergman, who volunteered to try bone-setting, listened to Ellen Wilson's words and replied, "She has been staying at home, It doesn't come out very much. Hmph..."

"That's such a pity." Ellen Wilson moved her shoulders. Ingrid Bergman, a Nordic goddess with a skeleton of 1.75 meters, was placed here. The workload obviously exceeded his estimation, Gaba...

"My thoughts are like this. Newfoundland needs several well-known spokespersons. At present, it needs to open up its popularity, so I asked a few beautiful ladies to come and help." Ren Wilson let out a sigh of relief, "Ingrid, if I make a living with this kind of craftsmanship, you should pay extra for your size, right?"
