British Civil Servant

v2 Chapter 979: Heavy punch from America

The appearance of a group of big compradors made the former high commissioner quite gratified. It didn't take long to see him. It seemed that there were a few new female relatives. It's old Versailles.

"The bosses are a little too modest. I still have some understanding of your traditional clothes. Women who dare to wear them must have strong self-confidence." Alan Wilson smiled and then greeted several concubines.

If you want to look good in traditional clothes, it is not something that ordinary women can control. Hanfu can easily remove 90% of women. Cheongsam is more demanding on the figure than Hanfu. If you have a bad figure, you dare to show it?

"Jiannei heard that Lord Zhongtang is leaving, and I really want to see the true face of Mount Lu." Coca said enthusiastically, "We can't do without the help of Lord Zhongtang."

"This is also a fact. The compliments from the ladies are really touching." Alan Wilson said this lightly, and then hinted that women have a place for women, and it is better not to let women here when talking about business.

Everyone understood, and asked the concubines who came to bring Louis Vuitton and L'Oreal to chat with Ms. Xia Meng, the spokesperson of the two brands. They were so familiar with each other that they didn't need to avoid too much.

As far as their relationship is concerned, even if the compradors like to kill, it's not impossible to talk about.

Alan Wilson asked if there was any difficulty in the transfer of the textile industry to Myanmar. Coca said that it was generally smooth. Although the investment was not small, the cost could be recovered in two years, and it would be profitable in the future.

"We still have some background in the UK." Alan Wilson said calmly, "The Chinese community in Southeast Asia has a special status. At present, in terms of ideology and national strength, the mainland government can't be busy with you. Even if If you want to help, it will only backfire, but the UK can support you to expand your industry, and if I am right, everyone will have a drink with me."

When Su Yang heard the words, he immediately called the waiter over, filled a glass for the compradors, and said first, "Then we will give a cup to the Lord Zhongtang. When we need our help, we will never be vague."

"Thank you for the wishes of the justices of the peace. Although I am thousands of miles away, I have always been thinking about the stability and prosperity here." Alan Wilson raised his glass, and also wished with a smile on his face, "The good days are still to come. "

They are all Chinese businessmen supported by one hand, and Alan Wilson doesn't have to hide anything. Analyzing the international situation, Myanmar is based on the fact that the United Kingdom has not completely declined, at least it is powerful in front of Myanmar, so it is worth investing. Like other Southeast Asian countries, they have to rely on their own efforts.

"Lord Zhongtang, what do you think of Thailand? I received guests from the Xie family in Thailand some time ago to see if there is an opportunity for cooperation." Tian Qianqiu took the initiative to ask. After all, they are not political figures, and they are not very clear about the international situation.

"What's the name of his company?" Alan Wilson was moved when he heard the surname, and asked an endless question. Tian Qianqiu immediately informed, "Zhengda Company..."

"It's a good partner for cooperation." Alan Wilson said as expected, "Blood is thicker than water between you and is limited by invisible borders. Help can be limited to cooperation with Chinese businessmen in other Southeast Asian countries. Helping each other and even marrying each other. The British Empire is happy to see this, but in fact, it is not necessary to hold shares. As for the reason, it is because of the invisible border.”

Alan Wilson said something like a tongue twister, allowing them to slowly realize for themselves, "Chinese have economic status, but they are a minority in any country. If one day Britain leaves Southeast Asia?"

"We are infinitely loyal to the Queen's leadership..." Su Yang quickly expressed his position, but his words were still very reserved.

Loyal to the Queen, but the so-called British Cabinet has nothing to do with them, Alan Wilson can hear the overtones, but what does it matter? There is really no obligation to be loyal to the British government.

"God save the Queen!" Alan Wilson raised his glass and greeted London with great humility.

"God bless the Queen." The collision of the wine glasses contributed to the diversification process of the Malayan colony and even the whole of Southeast Asia.

The so-called balance between public and private, in this field, Alan Wilson believes that he has been doing a good job. In addition to giving the British African elite a head start, he also came here to raise funds, not to mention extortion, at least the industries that were comprador on the scene. With the shares he exchanged for the start-up capital, generally in the range of 15% to 20%, can he still find such a conscientious high commissioner?

It was originally his own industry, and now it is not too much to take a little for the silver operation.

This is only part of it, considering the long-standing close friendship with Maharaja Ali Khan of Sabah, he cannot let such good things leave his friends behind.

After these things were finalized, the moment he boarded the Comet passenger plane, he could be called a rewarding achievement.

This time, he collected almost all the ladies of the same status as his wives, all the compradors, and Maharaja Ali Khan. Together with the help of the Newfoundland Foundation, he raised a total of 28.5 million ounces. Funds in gold, ready to make a fortune in silver.

Looking for trouble on gold is the matter of General Charles de Gaulle, a French man who fell from the sky. He can only play a small role in silver. The comet airliner went straight to an altitude of 10,000 meters and arrived in Karachi, now the capital of Pakistan.

From the High Commissioner of Pakistan, records of previous meetings between the Portuguese side of Goa and Pakistan were obtained.

Since Pakistan's independence, the relationship between Portugal and Pakistan has always been very good. Alan Wilson does not deny that this has little to do with himself. This little meaning is about details, not an overview.

The relationship between the UK and Pakistan is also good, as is the economic and trade relationship. The Middle East is extremely important in the eyes of the United Kingdom, and the construction of the airport and the construction of British colonies and protectorates in the Middle East all require huge manpower.

Because the Malayan colony is positioned as an industrial production base, the labor force has long been exhausted, and even the textile industry, which can create jobs, has been transferred to Myanmar. Naturally, there is no redundant labor force to work in the Middle East.

The country that Britain can maintain the most influential power in the Middle East is Iraq, and no matter how big it is, it exceeds the national strength of the United Kingdom. Countries in the Middle East that can be covered by the United Kingdom are all countries with small areas and small populations. There is not much labor itself, so Pakistan can only help.

In the Middle East in later generations, the main foreign labor force also came from South Asia, specifically India. Don't look at the old immortals attacking the Peace Religion, but the Indians in the Middle East are all serving the Peace Religion Master.

After independence from India, Alan Wilson has always been determined to weaken the legacy of the British India period, that is, the legacy of Indian descent in the British colonies.

On balance, Indian labor will be blocked from entering the Middle East by diplomatic means, and Pakistani labor will be replaced instead.

After passing through Karachi, Comet 1 finally landed in Basra, an important town in southern Iraq. Heidi Rama, who was shrouded in Arabian black robe, got off the plane together with Alan Wilson, who came to help the minister.

As soon as he got off the plane, his old friend John the Persian Gulf Commissioner waited with a serious look on his face, which made Alan Wilson feel that something was wrong. If he was in a third world country, even in the Soviet Union, what he might be thinking now is, yes Isn't it a coup?

As if the Iraqi Revolution did happen this year in history, Alan Wilson couldn't help but feel a little heavy, "My friend, what happened?"

"The communication between the minister and Iran is not smooth. Prime Minister Mossadegh's attitude this time is very tough. Let the UK end the unequal treaty and return oil control to Iran." John shook his head slightly, "The minister is in a terrible mood. ."

Alan Wilson's face softened a little~lightnovelpub.net~ It's good that it wasn't the Iraqi revolution, and he asked with a sigh of relief, "Have you communicated with the United States, and what did the Americans say?"

"The Americans' ambiguous attitude is astounding." John and Alan Wilson walked side by side. "The Americans say this is a matter between the UK and Iran, but it is not recommended for the UK to make matters worse."

"What's the matter, they are the only ones who are qualified to do things. I don't believe that Pahlavi can cooperate with the Soviets. Who would dare to be a monarch? No news from White?" Alan Wilson said with a look on his face. Angry, the White in the mouth is Richard White, the director of MI6.

John shook his head and reminded his good friend, "The minister is in a very unhappy mood now, you have to be careful."

"I see." The two got into the car together and went straight to the hotel where Foreign Secretary Harold Wilson was staying.

Harold Wilson was indeed in a very unpleasant mood. He had been talking well before, but the sudden change in Iran's stance really caught him off guard, and he refused to communicate with a very strong attitude.

At this moment, the Tehran Royal Palace, the US ambassador to Iran had just come out of the palace of King Pahlavi. There is a special relationship between Britain and the United States that walks on the bright side, and the **** anti-American elements in the dark suspect that there is nothing wrong with it. It is precisely in the following...

During the Iranian oil crisis a few years ago, the United States watched the excitement while watching the British embarrassed. Because the matter had been troubled for a year, the United States decided that the United Kingdom would not resolve it peacefully, so it adopted a wait-and-see attitude.

Unexpectedly, the United Kingdom and Mossadegh really adjusted the allocation of Anglo-Iranian Oil Company in the end.

This greatly disappointed the United States, which was watching the changes, and did not find an opportunity to show favor to Iran and step on the United Kingdom. Now that the short-term solution has expired, the United States can no longer miss the opportunity this time.
