British Civil Servant

v2 Chapter 1113: my son charlotte

Looking at it this way, Rabo Butler, the foreign secretary, is a pure tool man in the eyes of the prime minister. A prime minister's answerer who resolutely implements Eden's diplomatic strategy, such a role.

After Macmillan's suspected disloyalty, Aiden is now more inclined to thoroughly implement his own diplomatic strategy. After careful selection, Rabo Butler was selected.

Alan Wilson guessed so, but the actual situation is similar. Aiden replaced Macmillan on the grounds that the current government has accepted the Labor Party's criticism. Of course, in Aiden's own dictation, this is the protection of Macmillan.

Just as Rabo Butler took office, he ran into the upcoming NATO foreign ministers' meeting. "I heard that the United States is going to put pressure on it, and I hope that European countries will give a clear answer to the colonial issue."

"That's it!" Alan Wilson raised his eyebrows. Mr. Kennedy is really motivated. A reaction stop incident is really useless. family allowance.

Tens of millions of dollars is a lot of money in the eyes of many countries, but it is really not a big expenditure for the United States.

"If the United States takes a tough attitude, we suggest that the Netherlands push Suriname out for independence...Under the watchful eyes of the United States, it is meaningless to colonize any place in the Americas. The huge expenditure is far from keeping up with the benefits, and it should be let go in time."

Alan Wilson thought of this wonderful place in South America, the world's **** stick, France, the god's filial son, and the sea coachman Holland, each of which has not been in the world for hundreds of years, almost capsized in the little Guyana.

Guyana not only dragged the Netherlands down badly, but also almost fell into the hands of the UK. Fortunately, the UK reacted quickly and ran away first. Otherwise, would a colony still want to squeeze British wool?

In the current world, it is still too late to kick Guyana out quickly, and the Netherlands will not be able to get rid of it in the later years.

"Old people are gradually withering, like leaves falling in the wind." After a pleasant meeting with the new Foreign Secretary, Alan Wilson left the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and he couldn't help sighing the elegy of the colonial era on the way.

The poorest working man in London, England, would puff out his chest with confidence when he thought of the industry and wealth of the British Empire! What's more, he is the secretary-general who controls huge overseas assets.

At No. 70 Whitehall, Norman Brooke was sitting in danger, waiting for Alan Wilson to report on his trip to Asia. He said bluntly when they first met, "The governor is very angry this time."

"The overall interests of hundreds of thousands of colleagues are greater than the local self-interest." Alan Wilson answered without hesitation. Five million tons of rice was smuggled, Xiangjiang accepted the help of Malaya, and got the support of London, so it can’t keep all the benefits for itself, this kind of behavior is very selfish.”

Of course, Alan Wilson does not deny that his wife Pamela Mountbatten's road to grain trading started in a certain big country, and she also gained a lot of benefits. For example, now my wife really has Chinese silver in her hands.

Xiangjiang relied on the transfer station to accept the gift, and then the governor of Hong Kong talked about financial independence, isn't that a joke? This is equivalent to the UK investing in a country. As soon as there is some profit, you will nationalize and let the UK go?

This is because we are all British. Alan Wilson sent people to integrate and see how he treated Mossadegh. The governor of Hong Kong should feel honored to treat him like this.

As the cabinet secretary, Norman Brook certainly felt that Alan Wilson was doing the right thing. The so-called financial independence is nonsense. There are so many British-funded enterprises in Xiangjiang, what kind of financial independence are you talking about?

"The current situation is still satisfactory." Norman Brook said irrelevantly, "Maintaining the balance between the European Community and the Commonwealth has always been our top priority."

Not relying on any one market is what the UK has been pursuing. From this point of view, it is not surprising that joining the European Community was initially criticized. Because at the beginning of joining the European Community, each other should be exempted from taxes.

After Alan Wilson went to the Federal Republic of Germany, he determined that the European continent would not have a competitive relationship with the UK in the short term, and the UK had enough time to adjust. Under this premise, the European Community was formed by preemptively formulating a tax rate that is relatively favorable to the United Kingdom.

This European Community is not the European Community in history. Since Britain has become the leading country, it cannot sit back and watch the emergence of rules that are not conducive to the United Kingdom. It can be said that from the very beginning, the European Community in this world cannot play the role of unifying Europe. .

Before World War II, the United Kingdom had the Commonwealth of Nations that could rely on its own system and accounted for the bulk of its trade volume. After the emergence of the European Community, the UK's goal is to maintain a balanced trade and not rely too much on a single market.

In fact, in the original history, by the 1960s, Britain's foreign trade volume with the traditional Commonwealth countries had dropped to one-third, and its trade with Europe had exceeded 50%. The relationship between Britain and the Commonwealth has become more and more distant.

At present, such a thing has not happened yet, which shows the role of the Malayan colony. The UK's local single-core market is not capable of influencing the Asian direction, so it needs to rebuild a core.

In the original history, the United Kingdom has been more and more influenced by the European market over time. In order to balance this influence, it must rely on the military balance of the United States. In the end, the British Commonwealth, which is the basis of the three-ring diplomacy, has become more and more insignificant, and the United Kingdom has gradually failed to find itself. s position.

If the Commonwealth gives way to the European market, it will also cause changes in Australia and other countries. If Australia believes that the United Kingdom is satisfied with being a European country, the emergence of this mentality will also accelerate the loss of British influence.

No matter from any angle, maintaining the current situation, Malaya is extremely important.

And is Malaya only a superficial area of ​​500,000 square kilometers? Don't forget that half of Kalimantan Island is in the hands of the Netherlands. The Dutch capital is far less powerful than the British capital. Kalimantan Island is divided into two, and the Dutch part is also influenced by the British, which has a siphon effect.

Norman Brooke still voiced the well-worn concerns that the colonies were most prone to loyalty problems.

"I have talked with all the justices of the peace this time, and everyone agrees that the model of having the UK provide scientific and technological support and military protection, and they provide contacts to expand the market and include the whole of Southeast Asia is the most suitable development strategy. And before In comparison, the invisible but real national boundaries have actually helped us a lot."

Alan Wilson explained with humility, regarding the plan to center on Malaya and radiate to the surrounding area, "In fact, the island of Kalimantan in the Netherlands is an obvious example. What we hope is that thirty to Forty years later, every country in Southeast Asia has agents of Malaya's spillover capital, and British capital is hidden in it."

To be honest, at the same time that Alan Wilson was explaining, Sir Norman Brooke, the British apocalypse, was thinking about retirement. He now feels more and more physically tired. If it was ten years ago, all kinds of The secretary-general of the committee is held concurrently by himself, and now he has other people to manage the newly established departments.

This is already a big improvement for the cabinet secretary who has almost wiped out all the top leaders of important departments in Whitehall.

After such a conversation for a while, Norman Brooke was tired, "In short, when it comes to safeguarding collective rights and interests, your colleagues think you are reliable and have extraordinary energy, Alan, keep working hard."

"Is it because of age? Could it be that he has been a cabinet secretary for thirty years?" After Alan Wilson left, Norman Brook fell into long-term thinking.

Civil servants can retire until the age of sixty-five, as former cabinet secretary Edward Bridges did. It was only Norman Brook who felt tired in the past two years and thought of retiring early.

Norman Brooke has read the files of Alan Wilson. If he is the next cabinet secretary, he will retire at the age of sixty-five, almost thirty years later.

At this time, Norman Brook didn't know that the permanent deputy secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in his eyes had a flexible date of birth, so he could work for three years on the basis of his idea.

Alan Wilson even kept the original birth certificate. It was not the first time he had changed the date of birth. In his hometown in his previous life, it was common for him to change his age.

Accompanying Rabe Butler to attend the NATO foreign ministers meeting was the first time the foreign minister appeared at a post-war international conference. At the NATO foreign ministers meeting, the foreign ministers of various countries had heated discussions and fought with each other.

The headquarters of France's largest film company ~lightnovelpub.net~ is also fighting with each other, and the two female presidents dare to chat here?

"You are doing this kind of thing on such an important occasion." Heidi Lama whispered with her arms around the man's neck.

"I still do this kind of thing under the deep attention of the French intelligence service." Alan Wilson boasted.

In the past few days in Paris, Alan Wilson thought about one thing, and when he returned to London, he told Xia Meng, "My son, Charlotte, will definitely be a successful person with no worries in the future."

"It doesn't matter what it's called, come and see me when the time comes." Xia Meng acted like a baby, hoping that Alan Wilson would come over after the child was born.

The date of birth was just a few days ago. Xia Meng was alone in a foreign country, and she still instinctively hoped to be protected by a man. Alan Wilson pondered for a moment, then nodded under Xia Meng's nervous gaze, "I'll make an exception for you."

He had great hopes for the boy, who could replace him in his Asian business twenty years later. In fact, he originally wanted to name him Xia Jie, but he thought it was more domineering.
