British Civil Servant

v2 Chapter 644: i am a clown

"I agree! Sir is so right," agrees Alan Wilson, "I am ours", "but for most colonies, finding one's own worth is the most important thing for the resident commissioner. things, the conditions of Xiangjiang, the general colonies do not have.”

"Look, for us, the most important thing is to find the problem." Ge Lianghong said meaningfully, "Let's see who can find the most critical problem."

"Oh, esteemed Sir, let's change the subject." Alan Wilson nodded and said indifferently, "Actually, for us overseas civil servants, the source of interest depends on the territory under management, not the distance between thousands of miles. London. I'm on the same page as the Jazz on this."

Hong Kong's British civil servants tend to defy the London bureaucracy for pointing fingers at the Governor and the policies implemented in Hong Kong in an attempt to retain greater autonomy. Hong Kong governors and officials also realized that London has always looked at Hong Kong from a commercial point of view. If Hong Kong one day becomes an economic burden to London, their autonomy will be out of the question, and they will even give up Hong Kong.

Therefore, the Governor of Hong Kong has focused on improving Hong Kong's economic self-sustainability. On the one hand, it shows the importance of Hong Kong to British commerce and trade, and on the other hand, it increases the bargaining chip to resist London's interference in internal affairs.

As for the respect for the cabinet, yes, but not much. The British Empire has cultivated officials with upright roots, and on this issue, they do not regard the mainland as a helper, but as an opponent.

For Alan Wilson, he needs Hong Kong as a transit station. Anyway, he can sell rubber to the Soviet Union. Naturally, he doesn't care about adding another country, and even if he doesn't sell it, Indonesia will sell it.

Rather than let Sukarno earn this money, it is better to enrich Malaya's finances.

Alan Wilson mentioned that Whitehall had predicted that trade with China could reach the figure of 100 million pounds in five years. Of course this is trade volume, not profit. But 100 million pounds is certainly not a small amount of money.

"The leaders of Whitehall, after all, can see it more clearly than those foreign executives." Ge Lianghong agreed after listening, "After the formation of complementary trade, I believe that Xiangjiang's income will also greatly increase. The only doubt. It's that our allies may be unhappy because of this."

"Of course we have to take into account the attitude of our allies, but it's not a big problem." Alan Wilson replied absentmindedly.

Nor is Hong Kong's unique location just a financial benefit over a completely unfamiliar foe. Is it a fake to be a spy center in Asia?

Ge Lianghong sees one thing very clearly, that is, Xiangjiang will return to China sooner or later. As for the whimsical autonomy of some politicians, or city-states, it is simply impossible.

Since it is definitely impossible to keep it, it is better to do something good to form a good relationship. Before coming, Ge Lianghong invested in education.

Due to the increase in population in Hong Kong, with the increase in the number of schools, the demand for teachers is also increasing. However, the only Luo Fuguo Institute of Education in Hong Kong failed to meet the demand. As a result, Grantham set up a new Grantham Institute of Education in September. Grantham was very proud that the new Teachers College was named after him.

"But then again, it is also beneficial for the two places to cooperate. Xiangjiang has a unique geographical location. And Malaya has resources. If the trade volume can be expanded, both places will be developed."

Seeing this, Ge Lianghong only accepted the invitation to come to Kuala Lumpur this time, instead of coming for a vacation.

When it comes to dealing with the local issue, Alan Wilson and Granthong have the same position, and both believe that the land under their control must be developed, and the world's most populous country cannot be regarded as non-existent.

On combating smuggling, there is a consensus that there is no smuggling in the South China Sea. All are legitimate normal trade, as the Royal Navy's Pacific Fleet can testify.

"In general, Xiangjiang has enough profits without doing anything." Allen Wilson said.

As for direct management experience, it is also something that British Malaya should learn, compared to Commissioner Alan Wilson.

In fact, as the Governor of Hong Kong, Ge Lianghong has more power. The Governor of Hong Kong has both executive power and legislative power. In addition, the military power and the police are also in the hands of the Hong Kong Governor. In Hong Kong, you can do whatever you want without being restricted.

The Hong Kong Governor has both executive power and legislative power. In addition, military power and police are also in the hands of the Hong Kong Governor. In Hong Kong, the Governor of Hong Kong can do whatever he wants without being restricted.

Therefore, Alan Wilson must get the approval of Ge Lianghong in order to catch the ride of the world's most populous country, and he can't get around it at all.

But like he said, this is a good thing for everyone, and Xiangjiang will also benefit from it. Then the British civil servants in Hong Kong are naturally the group that benefits the most. At that time, I will have more confidence to mess around with London!

The conversation between the two began, and Alan Wilson asked for his experience in direct management. "Actually, if domestic politicians say anything about development plans, they must be inseparable from democracy in three sentences."

"What do they know about governing the country?" Ge Lianghong sneered and said, "During economic development, democracy is a derogatory term. Our officials in Heung Kong believe that democratic politics is the thing that will bring down the local economy the fastest, and Destroy the security of society and the political situation. If one day we want to bring down the economy of Hong Kong, we can try democratic politics, and the effect will be very fast.”

"Respected Sir, you are really a prophet." Alan Wilson's admiration is absolutely sincere. Isn't the future the same as what Ge Lianghong said.

The two once again reached a consensus on the point that Xiangjiang can benefit. Xiangjiang is a small area and lacks natural resources, so local living materials, agricultural products, energy, etc. need a steady stream of blood transfusions from the outside world. Xiangjiang's live cattle, live sheep and live pigs are completely dependent on the outside world. Overseas is also the main supplier of beans, tomatoes, onions, cucumbers, lettuce, fungi and other vegetables.

In general, it is absolutely impossible for Hong Kong to develop without trade. Therefore, for the British civil servants in Hong Kong, the so-called extensive blockade of the free world is itself the greatest insult to the public servants of society.

Imperial civil servants do not participate in smuggling themselves, which is already worthy of the years of training in the British Empire. As for cutting off the trade role of Hong Kong as a free port, that is not to think about it, it is useless to change how many governors.

In the next few days, as the chief executives of the two places, Allen Wilson and Grant Hong talked about things in a big way.

Hong Kong and Malaya can not only promote each other's development through division of labor economically. Politically facing London, it is more possible to take a common position. Both believe that the interests of overseas civil servants and the views of local officials are not exactly the same.

Because he heard that the Americans had taken the initiative to talk about peace, Alan Wilson took the respected Governor of Hong Kong to a church to express his prayer for peace. After all, war is cruel and no one wants it to continue.

The prayer is done. The venerable priest, yawning constantly, completed the day's task of praising God. They walked into the sacristy one by one with tired looks on their faces, like government officials who mechanically completed their daily routines.

The zeal for religion of these respectable priests, like the daily wear and tear of their clerical uniforms and shawls, faded away in the chorus of praise day after day.

Among the clergy of the church, there is also a common problem in general public institutions: some priests usually do not talk to each other, and some do not even greet each other when they meet. However, this situation is not easy for ordinary outsiders to detect, because on the surface, they pretend to be united when they are together. For example, when meeting, always shake hands, pat each other on the shoulder lightly, even say a few jokes, or whisper a few words into the ear of a colleague.

Of course, there are also some people who are usually taciturn and leave the church soon after praying. Some people left without saying goodbye.

After completing the prayer, the two continued to discuss the topic of when peace could come. At this time, according to the news from Whitehall, the United States' request for peace talks was rejected.

It seems that the great God immediately recognized a hypocrite like Alan Wilson and imposed punishment at a critical moment.

"Oh, my God." Alan Wilson felt heartfelt pain at the broken American dream of peace. But as an adult, he has learned to hide his sadness with a smile.

If things end here, it's not a bad thing, but a piece of news in Whitehall made him almost like he was struck by lightning~lightnovelpub.net~ For a long time, it was different.

Grantham is very strange. Could it be that Alan Wilson has friends in the United States and has always expected peace to come?

"Oh, it's fine!" Alan Wilson hesitated for a moment, but still informed Ge Lianghong of the Soviet Union's move to build a wall around West Berlin. This kind of thing should not be concealed.

"The actions of the Soviets are too bad." Grantham rebuked indignantly, "This is a kind of pressure on us."

"Maybe it is!" Alan Wilson responded absentmindedly. The construction of the Berlin Wall and the interruption of West Berlin's communication with the outside world caused the citizens of West Berlin to panic, and many citizens fled West Berlin.

But this is actually not a big deal for Alan Wilson, and it can be said that it has nothing to do with him. But he clearly remembered that the Berlin Wall was built after the Second Berlin Crisis in 1961.

In any case, it should not appear at this time. Apart from him, there are only two possibilities. The first is that there is a person in the opposite camp like him in this world, which is unlikely.

There is also a possibility that he has a spy by his side! Alan Wilson thought of this and felt that the Joker was himself.
