British Civil Servant

v2 Chapter 1438: I am your father

Alan Wilson just came out of No. 10 Downing Street to report on a number of issues discussed by the Northern Ireland Appeals Dialogue, the Civil War in Southern Rhodesia, the reconstruction of Bangladesh, and the Paris Coordination Committee.

He's been coming to 10 Downing Street a lot recently, but it doesn't matter. He's not afraid of a lot of things, but he's afraid of nothing. Once the Prime Minister is free, it's easy to think too much. Although the Prime Minister of the Labour Party wants to nationalize from time to time, it does not endanger the The status and interests of Whitehall, but if the leisure time is long, there is always the possibility of accidents.

"Regarding the position of the UK at the EC meeting, we still do not want any change in Finland's status. If Paris insists that the EC needs an observer state, it would be better to get Moscow's acquiescence, but even if Moscow acquiesced, It is best for Finland to stop at the stage of an observer state forever. As for Ireland, I hope that the member states of the European Community will continue to give the UK firm support. Under the real conditions of border disputes, Ireland is not suitable to become a member of the European Community.”

After greeting Wick and giving a few words, Alan Wilson packed his things and prepared to get off work. He had no idea of ​​having a drink today. He was so haggard that he had to stop drinking.

"Regarding the Glasgow case, it's more difficult for the justices now." Wick whispered, he works in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which is actually not related to his work, but isn't this an opportunity to get closer to the supreme authority? He knew that this supreme authority was actually very gossip.

"That case, the Glasgow fall. Is the dispute over whether the death penalty should be imposed?" Alan Wilson laughed, "The death penalty has not been abolished, but it has not been carried out for many years. In fact, this case happened in Scotland just right. , if some judgments are on the English side, the resistance will be greater. In Scotland, there is no problem. We need a precedent, but it is best not to do it ourselves, to show that the death penalty still exists, so it is necessary to pass no obvious guidance. , tell the Supreme Court of Scotland to be bold."

There was a case of falling from a building in Glasgow. In fact, the case was not complicated. Municipal personnel were maintaining a residential building, and the hoisting rope was cut by a pair of scissors.

This is the whole process. In broad daylight, there are witnesses and physical evidence. There will not be any controversy in other countries, but is it on the free world side?

Alan Wilson resolutely shelved various appeals for the abolition of the death penalty, and did not let such appeals go to parliament at all. For this reason, Radwich also found a murderer who was released from prison a few years ago to kill again, and even bloodbathed the Indians. The community, this kind of brutality is naturally criticized. Of course, Whitehall is magnanimous. Even if he kills again, he is not sentenced to capital punishment.

But this time is different. The municipal staff are civil servants, a glorious collective of 500,000 people. This time there is one missing pillar. Even if it is not now, it may be in the future. How can it be?

As a group determined to benefit the society, should I face this kind of treatment? It's almost impossible to take Whitehall seriously.

"Secretary-General, and an official letter from the Soviet embassy, ​​the Soviet ambassador hopes to meet soon." Wick handed the document in his hand to the supreme authority, obviously this is his own job.

"Well, I'll look at it when I go back. Brest will take care of this matter, and don't let public opinion pay too much attention to this isolated incident. It will be logical at that time." Alan Wilson took the document and raised his wrist just as he got off work. Greeted Wick and walked out of Whitehall, Radwich was already waiting outside, and soon Gintama started to walk away.

Since it was a formal meeting, I followed the normal procedure. However, when Alan Wilson looked through the official letter, he saw a familiar name, and he would not forget his identity for more than half a year.

"It seems like it hasn't been long since he returned home." Alan Wilson blinked, what could be wrong? Is it to express congratulations for his half-brother to officially join the army and join the army stationed in Drain?

This should be unlikely, but Alan Wilson really can't guess what the purpose is. There have been a lot of chores this year. Although it is a good thing to make the Prime Minister devastated, it does not mean that Alan Wilson can be a bystander. His time is also twenty-four hours, no more than others.

"Food?" Knowing the purpose of the Soviet ambassador's visit, Alan Wilson knew that this was just a contact, only to show the purpose of the visit, and of course he would not make any promises, "I just A cabinet secretary, we will reply in two days."

This short-term meeting brought opportunities for the subsequent black-box operations. Alan Wilson decided not to inform the Prime Minister of the matter for the time being, but to wait for the meeting with Alexeyev.

The second meeting is coming soon. After being apart for more than half a year, there is actually no change in my eldest son. This time, Alan Wilson directly turned on the ridicule mode when he met alone, "I'm running out of food again? You see, you are a good superpower. The food issue is here to beg the imperialist country you call it?"

"We need the help of the United Kingdom, and it is best not to contact the United States." Alexeyev heard his old father's cynicism. Although he was reluctant, he could only listen. The situation is stronger than people.

"Oh, this is unrealistic. It depends on what your food shortage is." Alan Wilson snorted softly. If the import volume of two or three million tons in a normal year, then it must not be difficult at all, just a Rhodes It can be solved by the royal family's territory in West Asia, but what if the gap is too large? How to bypass the United States?

The most powerful country in agriculture in the world is the United States. In fact, if the Soviet Union did not follow the United States in all aspects, and gave up some industries to focus on solving agricultural problems, even if the Soviet Union could not become an agricultural empire, it would not have any problems in achieving self-sufficiency in agricultural products.

"What's the use of the Soviet Union's reputation as the world's largest textile power? Huh? Transfer your textile industry out, use the freed manpower for farming, do less work on feeding the livestock with grain, and reform the transportation problem. Does it need to be like this?" Seeing that the old man is not willing to ask for help in a low voice, Alan Wilson rudely taught a lesson, "The price of grain is artificially suppressed, causing the price to go upside down, who will go to farm? I won't. It's a big deal about the Soviet Union's foreign aid."

After more than ten years of the Sino-Soviet honeymoon period, have you never heard the saying that the cheapness of the grain hurts the farmers from Comrade Dongfang?

In a big country, there is no way that the population is too large, and it must be guaranteed that everyone can afford food. Did the Soviet Union also have demographic pressure? Although the population of the Soviet Union is also among the top three in the world, it has absolutely nothing to do with population pressure.

"We also thought about transferring, but people didn't want to, because they felt that the Soviet Union was exploiting them." But it's really not good in London, and the people in front of him can still reprimand him without any temper.

"Oh, I know which country you're talking about." Did Alan Wilson know that it wasn't a big country? There is indeed such a thing as the unwillingness to be a light industrial base of the Soviet Union.

To say there is any difference? In fact, it didn't, but it was determined not to be a light industry base for the Soviet Union, and then headed to become a light industry base for the free world.

This hurdle is unavoidable, and it is an inevitable stage. If you don’t want to be the Soviet Union, you will be on the side of the free world. Of course, you can choose not to. This is a free world.

Seeing the eldest son felt uncomfortable, Alan Wilson became even more enthusiastic. It was at this moment that he showed the traditional skills of British diplomacy. He recalled the development of relations between the two countries over the Soviet Union with Alexeyev. When the Soviet Union was about to de-escalate, people said it was capitulationism, and the Soviet Union was about to start a global offensive, and people said it was better to de-escalate.

"What? Is there a sentence I'm lying? Does every sentence happen in the past ten years?"

Alan Wilson finally seized such an opportunity to find the role of his father, which is very elated. Of course, he has been an official for so many years, and he also knows what it means to stop. "The current satellite technology can only see the endless farmland. Whether the wheat ears above are full or not, what Moscow should do at this time is to publicly express its expectation for a bumper harvest. There is only a shortfall of two to three million tons in normal import years, and this amount is not enough to cause fluctuations in grain. I help You solve the part, and the rest is to see how you deceived the Americans. If the gap made up by the UK is not enough, enter the market to scan the goods while the price is low.”

Alan Wilson was not sure how much he could eat, but he had an idea and reminded him, "This has to be hidden from any country, no matter how well-connected the country is. After returning home, he said, and inquired about the normal year. Don’t say anything else about the price of imported grain. Have you received anti-reconnaissance training? That’s no problem.”

"I'll just go back like this?" Alexeyev hesitated. Has he completed his mission in Moscow?

"Well, I'm your father~lightnovelpub.net~ and I won't hurt you." Alan Wilson said in a tone that you heard right, "after returning home, think about what to do, and find an excuse to come back."

Urging the eldest son to return to Moscow as soon as possible, Alan Wilson figured out how to solve the problem and let the eldest son hide from the Soviet Union's allies, because if he handled this matter, if the Soviet Union and the allies leaked news, it would increase the number of British The cost of purchasing food.

The first is to print money, and then import wheat from the two most populous countries in the world.

Why is India exporting food at a very low level of food self-sufficiency in the 21st century? On the one hand, it is because Indians do eat less, but this is not the main reason. Another reason is that only food in India is hard currency, and there are hardly any competitive products that are inseparable from Europe and the United States.

This kind of thing happens when there is no competitiveness in the industry. In fact, for a period of time, a large country, like India, trades grain exports for foreign exchange. Of course, India is always in such a stage until Modi is in power, which is a very serious problem.
