Chapter 275 Vivienne Is Back

The Burmese currency reform plan, as long as Aung San and others stand on the platform, it will naturally be passed.

This is an achievement he has achieved in only three days after he arrived in Myanmar, which is certainly something to be happy about.

The most fundamental reason is that Aung San and others had dirty buttocks during World War II, and they were bluffed by him using both soft and hard tactics, saying that he would tear off the ugly face of imperialism at any time to deal with Burma.

In fact, Alan Wilson would not do anything to Aung San. Since Aung San was assassinated in history, he only got a false name, so he had to find a way to let Aung San live to see.

Anyway, he has seen the future of Aung San's death, and the British Empire has not benefited, so try another possibility.

Burgess was also very surprised to get the support of Aung San and others so smoothly, so he invited Alan Wilson to come over and talk about how to deal with Myanmar.

The butler brought some bottles of beer. Burgess sat across from Alan Wilson, stroking a bottle of cold beer with two small hands.

His brow was sweating, and he looked sullen, but no longer angry. He was resentful and headstrong at all times, but the anger dissipated quickly and there was no need to apologize for it.

Burgess was annoyed that Alan Wilson was taking the lead, which might intensify the situation in Myanmar, but now he must admit that the other party made the right bet, and made these Burmese who have been pursuing independence obedient.

Alan Wilson understands this point, the rich second generation is not bad in nature, it's just a little self-centered.

"It's hard to imagine that they supported currency reform so easily. I thought it would take some effort." Burgess offered to pour Alan Wilson a glass of wine, and said rather strangely, "Maybe my judgment was wrong. "

"Actually, you just need to know that even after the trauma of the war, the colonies still have fewer cards than the British Empire." Alan Wilson took a sip of local Burmese beer, but it was not as hard to swallow as imagined, and continued. , "People like Aung San have no position, and they may not even be united. When Myanmar becomes independent, there may be internal strife right away. Who can say for sure."

The assassination of Aung San in history was not necessarily done by Britain. It may be that Myanmar is killing each other. This is not a new thing. We can share adversity but not share wealth. There are too many similar examples in history.

"In many places, we don't respect us because we are too soft on them. The only effective policy is to treat them as stinky mud. This is a critical moment. We must not let go of the prestige we can get. Everyone must Join together and say together, we are the masters, and you are the beggars."

Alan Wilson sighed in his heart, there is still a lot to learn from working in the colonies.

But it doesn't matter, there are many opportunities, he will definitely be able to rescue these heroes of the empire from the clutches of the Soviets, and work hard for this goal.

"Alan is too harsh on these colonies, but what they are after is not too much." Burgess could not help but retort after listening to the outright imperialist remarks.

"My request is not too much, I just want to restore the mainland to its peaceful state as soon as possible. But at present, there are American debts abroad, and the Soviet army is pressing the border in Europe. What does the empire have now? Only these colonies that can be cashed out, they It’s not impossible to be independent, but you have to pay a certain price. Independence is not obtained by praying, there are gains and losses, and those who pursue independence should understand this truth.”

Regardless of whether Burgess' beliefs are great or not, Alan Wilson grasped one point, that the local recovery must be allowed to talk about other things, and don't be a fool who scratches others with lice all over his body.

"But I still want to thank you. Without your blackmail, it might not be so smooth." Burgess told the truth, according to his method, first discuss it for a year and a half, and then prepare for a few months. Maybe Myanmar will become independent. It can't be done.

"This credit is yours. I just came to visit my friends here." By the way, he created evidence that Andaman Islands himself was not present, and Alan Wilson didn't say the second half.

Alan Wilson did not deny that he wanted to watch these idealists helplessly serve the British Empire. There are many colonies in the British Empire, and these members of the Cambridge Five can be arranged all the time.

Allen Wilson can't be the only one who betrayed the revolution, but these Cambridge Five with thick eyebrows and big eyes must also betray the revolution.

If these people don't find something to do, they might bring the Soviet Red Army here...

"Burgess, some voices in the country think that Britain will come back, but I think that once the colony is separated, it will not come back, so I will use all methods to realize the assets of the British Empire and block the mainland. It may be the difference between you and me." Alan Wilson changed the subject when he said this, "I have already sent a telegram to the local people, and London will send some economists over To help Myanmar reform its currency, it should be returned immediately, after all, there are not many people who are afraid of airplanes.”

"Maybe you think that people who take soft measures to deal with the colonies are cowards?" Burgess' words were not without irony, turning the corner and saying that Alan Wilson is a cold-blooded person.

"I really think so, but I won't say it publicly." Alan Wilson smiled treacherously, "I dare not say that I know everything about the ethnic groups in the Asian colonies, but I can also find them from history. It came out of their scruples, so as soon as I proposed to send the Burmese who cooperated with the Japanese army to China, Aung San and the others immediately succumbed. China is a great ally of the Allies, so it is not too much to borrow their potential power?"

Looking at the history of Myanmar after its independence, it can be said that even when the United States was the most aggressive, Myanmar did not adopt a hostile attitude towards China, and of course it was not very close. After all, the United States after World War II was indeed too strong.

We must know that the United States was really strong during the Cold War. It wiped out the Indonesian Communist Party, the third largest in the world, in one action in Indonesia, and turned Indonesia, which was pro-Soviet and pro-China, into its own bridgehead overnight. People are afraid.

In order to build a complete encirclement, the United States has also vigorously wooed Myanmar, but Myanmar finally restrained it. Not dancing with the American whip.

He knows the deep-seated scruples of these Southeast Asian countries. Of course, the situation in Myanmar is quite special, because he still loves India, so he has great scruples about India. Taking a two-pronged approach and playing the Chinese and Indian cards in a row, Aung San and the others had to think carefully.

In any case, the result is good. Now it depends on how much benefit the British Empire can get in the middle of the currency reform, and the local finances may be better.

Seeing the afternoon, the weather was unbearably hot. The faces of the people in the room were covered with flat and shiny beads of sweat, as were the forearms of the two of them. Sweat was growing on the back of Burgess' coat. The blinding light from outside somehow came in through the windows with green bamboo curtains, making people's eyes hurt and their minds dizzy.

It’s enough to drink to this point. Allen Wilson decisively ended his greedy drinking. Considering Burgess’ orientation, he was really afraid that he drank too much. Burgess could do something to himself. Unpredictable things.

Alan Wilson did not stay in Yangon for long in the end. On the one hand, the government affairs in Myanmar really had nothing to do with him. On the other hand, a telegram was sent from Hyderabad, and Vivien Leigh had already set off and returned.

Vivien Leigh agreed to ABC's invitation to shoot a documentary, and all expenses incurred for this documentary will be borne by the other party, not only that, but also the performance fee of 30,000 US dollars, which is not all.

The total performance fee is $100,000, including Heidi Rama, Joan Crawford, Bette Davis, Greta Garbo and Ingrid Bergman who came to British India together.

"What is this? Hollywood's capture of British India?" It may be that the Burmese beer is strong enough. Alan Wilson was still groggy when he received the telegram. He didn't understand that Vivien Leigh would come back when he came back. Why did he bring so many people? Building up the image of Americans in British India?

But then, Alan Wilson sobered up, the six members of the Golden Zodiac, these are all big stars! Even if you look at it, it's all bragging capital for future government affairs.

Unlike Alan Wilson, these female stars have no fear of airplanes. They boarded a plane from Los Angeles to Hawaii, then to Manila, and landed in New Delhi after a series of transitions.

Alan Wilson counted the time and went directly to the Burmese Governor's Mansion to say goodbye to Burgess.

"Go back in such a hurry?" Burgess seemed to remember that Alan Wilson said that nothing happened recently.

"It's all about fighting for the British Empire. We can't say we are in a hurry. It can only be said that it is an arrangement of fate." Alan Wilson said calmly, "Thank you Burgess for his hospitality these days, and I will leave the matter of Myanmar's currency reform to you. If you need help, please send a telegram directly, don't be polite."

"When are you leaving?" Burgess was still digesting what Alan Wilson said, and asked instinctively.

"Now!" Alan Wilson slapped his head suddenly when he said this, "The district sheriff named Wu Dinglun is actually a person who can be relied on. He has a very flexible mind and should be promoted. The most important thing is , can balance the Burmese.”

"Okay, I'll keep an eye out." Now? Burgess nodded in a daze before recovering, leaving now?

"Then contact me when you are free." Alan Wilson waved his hand and left the Burmese Governor's Mansion impatiently. If someone makes an airplane, he takes a boat, and it may not be faster than Vivien Leigh. Only by rushing back to New Delhi ahead of others can he reflect his importance.
