v1 Chapter 429: i am very sad

"Why do you feel a little bit of a loss?" Alan Wilson knew that the exploration company had the crown prince's share, and he didn't know whether to cry or laugh. That would be the share of the world's largest iron ore in the future. Is it just for the royal family?

However, this can also ensure political security and stop the decline of the British aristocracy, which is what he wanted to do before.

From this point of view, we can't be too petty. Of course making money is important, and ensuring inheritance is even more important. At least until the 21st century, it seems that Britain has not interfered in the business of the royal family.

The aristocracy is said to be strong and powerful, and one-third of the land in the UK belongs to the aristocracy. However, the 40% inheritance tax will definitely make many aristocratic families who rely on local financial resources go bankrupt in the next few decades.

From Pamela Mountbatten's telegram, Alan Wilson learned that many domestic hereditary nobles already know about Newfoundland, which is why Pamela Mountbatten thinks it is not a problem, even from the perspective of hereditary nobles Consider, these families would also approve of the Crown Prince's trip to Newfoundland.

Alan Wilson wants to borrow the crown prince's prestige to keep Newfoundland, which is of course an out-of-the-box move.

Similarly, the hereditary aristocrats in London also think so. Newfoundland is in a special environment. They also want to use this kind of trick to avoid the high inheritance tax, which requires the support of the royal family.

In the next few telegrams, Pamela Mountbatten and Alan Wilson discussed how persuasion worked.

How to communicate with the nobles, Alan Wilson has nothing to teach, and Pamela Mountbatten, as the daughter of General Mountbatten, is far more professional than him.

"But I have something to say, the royal family is the royal family of the British Empire, and a political party is nothing more than a local party that is in power. For local citizens, the influence of political parties is self-evident, but for people in many places, Who knows who the Labour and Conservative leaders are? They have their own political parties! But unlike the royal family, our Crown Prince has far more influence than Prime Minister Attlee and Churchill MPs in many places."

Pamela Mountbatten received the telegram, she already knew how to say it, and telling the truth was the best way.

The royal family is of course powerful, and having power and not having power is not the same thing.

The Prime Minister and his responsible cabinet are only a committee of the Privy Council, responsible for coordinating Her Majesty's army, civil service, diplomats and secret intelligence services, and the Queen has the highest priority to know. The Queen has the right to appoint or dismiss the Prime Minister and Cabinet members at will, declare war, make peace, command the army, sign treaties, etc.

Since the Magna Carta, the king has made more and more compromises at the legislative and judicial levels, but no law has ever directly deprived the king of his right to rule over the country's administrative and violent machinery.

"Elizabeth, our life is getting harder and harder." Pamela Mountbatten, relying on her father Mountbatten's relationship, found the standby king of later generations, the then-prosperous Crown Prince Elizabeth, "Many of my friends and I think, The aristocracy is dying slowly, and the current political environment is breathless."

"Pamela, you know, according to the unwritten rules, father cannot directly interfere with the government." Crown Prince Elizabeth pondered for a while, "It's not that no one tried to shake the inheritance tax, but they all failed."

"Now there is a place to avoid it." Pamela Mountbatten shook his head, saying that he was not asking the royal family to abolish the inheritance tax, "My fiancé is now the chief executive of Newfoundland, and Newfoundland is in a colonial state. The Chief has been conscientious and conscientious since taking office and has achieved great results."

"Oh?" Crown Prince Elizabeth asked with a puzzled face, "Is there still a chance for this matter?"

"As long as the crown prince takes a trip to Newfoundland in the form of condolences before the referendum, we can be sure about this matter." Pamela Mountbatten whispered, "This will be of great help to many families. , current supporters include but are not limited to the Duke of Somerset, Duke of Richmond, Duke of Bedford, Duke of Devonshire, Duke of Marlborough, Duke of Rutland, Duke of Manchester, Duke of Northumberland, Duke of Wellington, Duke of Westminster, Duke of Leinster, Earl of Portsmouth, Earl of Carnarvon..."

"Huh? It's all the families that you borrowed money to explore before." Crown Prince Elizabeth heard the words and chuckled, "Is your exploration effective? Don't be in debt by then. Although your mother is very rich, debt is not good. of."

"Even if I can't find it, my fiancé will pay it back for me." Pamela Mountbatten said embarrassedly when she heard the debt collection from the crown prince, "If this matter is done, it will be too late for them to thank me. "

"That's true!" Crown Prince Elizabeth nodded in agreement, "These inheritance taxes have been going on all the time, and it's really hurt everyone a lot."

"Allen said that the inheritance tax has always existed, and the aristocracy will only continue to transfer wealth out of the country." Pamela Mountbatten said helplessly, "This is for sure, no one will wait honestly, once the wealth is transferred. If it continues, the local economy will eventually suffer.”

It's not that Alan Wilson is frightening his fiancee. Since the end of World War II, the UK has been the world's largest investor for a long time. If the UK economy is particularly good, that's all. The problem is that the UK's long-term growth is not good, and it has been surpassed by Germany and France. I have done research on the largest investor countries for decades.

"Well, before the referendum in Newfoundland, I will go with Philip and take the battleship Advance for condolences." Crown Prince Elizabeth finally agreed, "It's just a normal condolence, right, I believe there will be no objections. ."

"Can I come see you?" Alan Wilson, who received the telegram from his fiancée, of course welcomed the content on the telegram, and said in his reply that he also misses his fiancée very much. In Newfoundland, he felt that he was about to become a a fish.

This telegram accompanies Pamela Mountbatten to sleep, and can't wait to go to Newfoundland and accompany her fiancé.

Alan Wilson has even started hunting. He, a man who loves politics so much, could hunt. It was completely impossible in the past, but this is all about Newfoundland. How can he not find some spare time to pass the time? ? However, this requires local hunters to guide.

Alan Wilson, riding a good horse, stayed close to the hunter, and from time to time, with a loud gunshot, he informed his companions that he had known another native animal. Alan Wilson was completely absorbed in his own thoughts, letting the horses carry him forward. He was thinking about the future of the expedition, it was too difficult to be a chief executive in such a wild place.

The hunter Mattis, who sometimes rides a horse, sometimes sits in a car, always looks at the natural landscape by the roadside, rarely speaks, and most of the time he walks, or locks himself in the car, deeply immersed in it. in his own imagination.

"Mr. Alan, hunting is a good way to kill time." Mattis looked at Alan Wilson and guided the young man with words from time to time to get used to life in Newfoundland.

"Thank you!" Alan Wilson apologized, but of course he disagreed. In this era, he couldn't waste time. The world was so big that he wanted to go around.

He really wanted to find something to do, but things in Newfoundland were so little compared to British India. He can't do the work of the neighborhood committee as a chief executive, such as mediating family conflicts among residents, right?

After finishing today's schedule, Alan Wilson arrived at the local town, in the middle of the town is a public square. Outside a circle of four-wheeled carts, drivers graze horses and cattle, which they drive into the circle at night.

Alan Wilson shares his prey as usual. In fact, most of them are Savievic's prey. The hunting skills he has trained in Africa cannot be compared to a novice, but this Croat is very good at being a man. , shared with the townspeople in the name of Alan Wilson.

Back in town, Alan Wilson went directly to the telegraph room to see if there was anything interesting coming, and he could find something to do for him. After a while, Alan Wilson came out with a beam of joy and took the telegram of Pakistan's armed attack on Kashmir. In front of Savievich, he said happily, "Finally something happened. This is the second good news since Gandhi was assassinated."

Because the Maharaja of Kashmir failed with the idea of ​​delaying the change, and because he was dissatisfied with the pro-India stance of the Grand Duke Singh, the pacifists in Kashmir launched an armed uprising. Singh sent troops to crack down, but the situation quickly spiraled out of control. The uprising also turned into a vendetta between pacifists and Hindus. The outbreak of this conflict provides an excellent reason for Pakistan to enter Kashmir.

An army of Pakistani regulars and tribal militias ~lightnovelpub.net~ has invaded Kashmir under the banner of liberation. They called themselves the "Kashmir Liberation Army", and they were all the way through, and Maharaja Ali Singh had fled.

That's all there is to the telegram, but Alan Wilson doesn't have to think that Alisinger must have gone to India. Will India send troops to **** it? Isn't that an obvious thing, the India-Pakistan war has actually broken out.

As the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Hyderabad, Alan Wilson was afraid of the urgent need to contact Maharaja Ali Khan to inquire about the situation in Hyderabad.

Different from history, Pakistan, which attacked Kashmir this time, was well prepared. After Ali Singh fled, it has already conquered Srinagar, the capital of Kashmir. This time, Pakistan's action was far more decisive and rapid than in history.

"Uh, Mr. Allen, is this a good thing?" Savievich asked hesitantly.

"Of course it's... uh, Savievich, you know, I worked in British India. I have an extraordinary feeling for the place." Alan Wilson reluctantly took back his true thoughts, "I Very sad."
