The Overseas Asset Management Committee is what Norman Brook is most concerned about. Alan Wilson actually only provides some management suggestions, which do not include regulatory facilities.

Because Alan Wilson can't think of any regulatory methods at all, and he won't use them even if he thinks of it. This kind of thing involves human nature, and there is no solution except that technological progress makes privacy invisible.

Furthermore, Alan Wilson wanted to show among the colonial commissioners that he was one of ours, so how could he do such a thankless thing? Since everyone is ours, we can just discuss some things.

The opportunity was rare. While the main colonial commissioners were in London, Alan Wilson wanted to establish some contacts. His idea was not excessive at all, not to mention that his old boss Lord Barron was also among them.

By the way, Alan Wilson asked if there are any details about the Palestinian-Israeli war that ended not long ago.

"As long as it's a war, the weapons used are secondary!" Sir Barron said expressionlessly, "I actually went to Jordan once after the ceasefire. After the war was over, the scene in the field hospital was more cruel than the war itself. Horrible. There was a long row of stretchers on the ground, with the unfortunate people lying on them. Doctors gathered around the stretchers, holding tweezers, saws, needles, threads and scalpels. One dead person after another was examined. , they tried their best to resurrect each corpse. Knitted here, sutured there, stuffed cotton wool on the wound, turned the blood vessels over like a glove, and put them back into place. There were more sutures than blood vessels, but after all, they were repaired and It's sutured up. If one patient dies, all his good parts are used to repair another person's limbs and organs, and so on. The most troublesome thing is to deal with the intestines: once it comes apart, it's almost impossible to know what to do. Only then can they be restored to their original positions.”

Sir Barron succeeded in getting Alan Wilson to drop the topic and go find someone else to establish contacts. After this former subordinate left, the corners of Sir Barron's mouth turned up with a look of satisfaction on his face.

For this former subordinate who always wanted to make money, Sir Barron couldn't say that he had nothing left, so he could only use this method to make him retreat. Now it seems that this method is very successful.

While the colonial commissioners were talking to each other and exchanging experiences in managing the colonies, Prime Minister Attlee was also persuading cabinet members to support his idea of ​​extending the nationalization movement from the mainland to the colonies.

Yes, it was his idea as Prime Minister. Didn't you read what Norman Brooke said? It was inspired by his nationalization movement in the country. So of course it was Prime Minister Attlee's own idea, and so was the Prime Minister. Think so.

Prime Minister Attlee in 1949 has been Prime Minister for more than three years after defeating Churchill in the election. Judging from the current feedback, the Conservative Party cannot be said to be without threat, but it still wants to talk about a comeback. morning.

Although the famous troll MP Churchill in the House of Commons maintains a high sense of presence as always, he has not been able to shake the Labor Party in a short period of time. The opposition party is insignificant, and Prime Minister Attlee's position in the Labor Party is naturally unchallenged.

Naturally, with the support of Prime Minister Attlee, Norman Brooke directly established this department called the Overseas Assets Management Committee and headed it himself.

Alan Wilson didn't know what to do with his life except to establish contacts with the colonial commissioners.

The whole house was filled with the aroma of freshly ground and strong coffee. Alan Wilson stretched happily in bed and stretched one hand out of habit to the other half of the couple's big bed. He stretched out his hand and immediately retracted it.

The fiancée had been with the crown prince and his wife for some time, and he knew she was not at home, so he did not forget it even when he was half asleep. But as time went by, Alan Wilson couldn't help but want to find the feeling of sleeping with a woman in his arms.

Alan Wilson jumped out of the quilt briskly,

After waving his hands a few times to speed up blood circulation, he put on a sanctimonious outfit and entered the bathroom. Ten minutes later, clean-shaven and smelling of perfume, he came to the kitchen.

After filling his stomach, Alan Wilson went out. His current position is his old position, Administrator of Newfoundland and Consul of Boston, but the land he is currently stepping on is London, the capital of England, which means that Alan Wilson is actually There is no work to be done.

Things like work belong to others. He is currently a salaried idler and has nothing to do in London. The problem is that if he returns to the United States, he will have nothing to do.

The major international event is the current Battle of Jamshengfan. When the colonial commissioners were discussing the nationalization of colonial minerals, unexpected changes occurred. Chang Gong finally sent 800,000 troops into the war through micro-control. The death ground determined the direction of this most evenly matched battle among the three major battles in one fell swoop.

"How about I go back and see the children!" Alan Wilson even had the idea of ​​returning to the United States. Although it is not the best time yet, let's see if the Republican Party, after learning from the painful experience, has broken the pot and used artillery. The party's collapse blasted Truman.

I was thinking about reporting to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. If I have nothing to do, I would go and see Hepburn. Or I could go and see Ms. Margaret, the chairperson of the school’s conservative party. Anyway, I haven’t seen her for a long time.

"Alan, Philby is looking for you." Milton, the personnel director of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, saw Alan Wilson coming and said that MI6 had something to do with him.

I have done meritorious service for Great Britain, and I have shed blood for Great Britain! Alan Wilson instinctively wanted to say this, but as soon as he heard Milton mention the name of the Soviet spy, he immediately calmed down and said, "Then I'll go and have a look, Sir George."

Although Alan Wilson of MI6 was not very familiar with him, it was not his first time here. He walked in and asked Philby why he was looking for him. He also did not forget to say hello, "What department do Burgess and Maclean work in now?" "

"Since leaving office in Burma and Ceylon, Burgess went to the Australian Embassy and Maclean went to South Africa." Philby did not hide it, after all, his personal relationship was not a secret.

Alan Wilson nodded, as if it was not an important place, and then sat in front of Philby and joked, "How about putting on handcuffs or something, so that it is easier to enter the atmosphere."

"Alan, don't be joking. This time I have something to do with you, related to your profession. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is assessing whether the trend of China's civil war will have an impact on our interests in the Far East." Philby flipped through the documents while He asked, "You have lived in the Far East before, maybe you can help us analyze it, eh? What's wrong with you?"

Philby looked up and saw in astonishment the complicated expression on Alan Wilson's face, not knowing what was going on.

"I'm thinking how long it's been since I've done anything professional. In terms of my work experience in recent years, I've almost forgotten what my major is." Alan Wilson rubbed his face, full of emotions He said nostalgically, "I'm sorry, I got a little excited at the moment."

"Your sense of humor is exactly like that of an American. I wonder if it has something to do with working in Boston." Phil teased with a smile, not sure whether it was a compliment or a sarcasm.

The smile on Alan Wilson's face gradually disappeared. He felt that this was irony. As a reliable person, he must love the British Empire more than the Soviet spy in front of him. There is no doubt about it.

"If you have any questions, just ask them directly!" Alan Wilson said nonchalantly, "I don't dare to talk about other countries. I am a top student at Oxford University after all on East Asian issues. I even understand Chinese and don't need any translation. Communicate with Chinese workers.”

"That's true." Philby nodded and took some information, not forgetting, "We want to analyze the direction of the war and its impact on Britain."

"Just leave it to me, are you in a hurry? If you're in a hurry, I'll send it back tomorrow." Alan Wilson was full of confidence, and even if he was a China expert, he would have to take action in person at the critical moment.

This is not to brag, even if you search the entire British Empire now, you will not be more professional than Alan Wilson himself. No one knows the true level of the artillery party better than him.

After getting the information, Alan Wilson wrote an evaluation report. According to the roadside news agency, Mr. Chang used American money to do American things and supported Dewey's campaign in the recent American election. , the most important thing is that this matter has been known to Truman.

Foreign aid has basically been cut off. Alan Wilson wrote this report with a very pityful tone. If the United States had sold kidneys to aid artillery, maybe Britain would not have to work so hard and stand tall with the United States and the Soviet Union.

It's a pity, it's a pity. At the end, Alan Wilson said in a categorical tone that the Gun Party will completely fail within a year. Unless the United States immediately sets up an expeditionary force to rescue, it will be sooner rather than later.

As for the British position on this matter, Alan Wilson said that Xiangjiang can be used as a touchstone. If Xiangjiang is attacked, there is naturally no need for contact. The fact that Xiangjiang is safe and sound shows that contact can be made.

The Far East Fleet is strictly prohibited from intervening. If it must intervene, the United States is more qualified than the United Kingdom. If the United States can remain calm, there is no need for the United Kingdom to wade into troubled waters.

After completing the report and writing his name on it, Alan Wilson returned to MI6 headquarters and handed it to Philby himself.

"In the field of intelligence, it is rare to have such a positive tone." Philby couldn't help but smile bitterly when he looked at Alan Wilson.

"If not, I will go to Newfoundland and become a fisherman." Alan Wilson raised his head slightly, as if Philby was not surprised to doubt his professionalism.
