"British Civil Servant Novel ()" Find the latest chapter!
As the King of Egypt, Farouk I was no stranger to collusion between officials and businessmen. He immediately said, "Once this national project starts, out of friendship with the United Kingdom, this project will definitely require the assistance of the United Kingdom. Of course I can't Doing things like giving and receiving privately."
"That kind of thing will never happen!" Alan Wilson said righteously, "Pamela's company will definitely get the share it deserves through its strong technology and experienced team."
"Of course Egypt cannot rule out the participation of some professional groups. After all, science cannot be faked." Farouk I gave an official statement, but in fact it was a verbal agreement.
With the guarantee from the King of Egypt, the non-staff minister almost became elated and thought about finding a Gullfoss Waterfall or something in return for the King.
But in fact, Farouk I has a professional team for this kind of thing, and he doesn’t need a person on Whitehall’s salary to worry about it.
From the news of later generations, we know that the Peace Sect was so strict on civil management, didn't it also prevent the Arab princess from attending the party?
Alan Wilson suggested that Farouk I could have chosen to return to Egypt in a battleship formation heading back to Asia.
But Farouk I obviously had his own ideas, saying that good things come in many ways. Apparently, he was still curious about his rare overseas visit. As for returning to Cairo, he was not in a hurry.
I wonder what the Egyptians, who have been paying unprecedented attention to Farouk I's visit to the UK, would think if they knew their king behaved like this.
But if you think about it carefully, there is no need for the Egyptians to know. Alan Wilson can find the reason just by thinking about it, "His Majesty Farouk is dejected. He has not done his best this time and feels shameless to take back control of the canal." Egyptian Fathers.”
As for using the king's hammer to hit the loopholes of imperialist women, just hide the merit and fame.
In principle, Alan Wilson is not prepared to profit from the dam project. If this kind of project involves the Suez Canal, he should show sincerity and not care about petty profits.
It should be considered in a structured way like Jack Ma. I am not interested in money, and my goal is never limited to money.
When it comes to the dam alone, Alan Wilson feels that another country is needed to help Egypt divert conflicts. British Sudan is currently self-governing and is run by a local elite and commissioners.
Commissioner Sudan is an old friend of Alan Wilson;
It turns out that John, the commissioner of the Junagadh state, this matter is not difficult with this old friend here. The Sultan is also discussing building a dam upstream to help the British divert the conflict. He feels that letting someone who has not yet Independence is only a self-governing colony and it is not too much to do so.
"And Ethiopia!" Patting his head, Alan Wilson felt ashamed of his rigid thinking. Since there is already a Sudan, what's the big deal about adding an Ethiopia.
Did Haile Selassie I forget that he was living in exile in London when all of Ethiopia fell?
"Okay, we're all home. I'm still thinking about work. When I get home, I feel like I'm home." Pamela Mountbatten came out of the kitchen with food in her hands and said with a reproachful look on her face.
"I am also here to see if your wealth can have new growth points." Alan Wilson took a bite of bread and said vaguely, "Who am I doing this for? Or is it just to prevent my woman from losing money?" Worrying about those trivial money problems, there is a saying in the East that poor and humble couples suffer from everything, money is not everything, but it is almost everything."
Her husband was so confident that Pamela Mountbatten had no reason and no desire to refute it. She agreed that her man was right and asked with an attitude of admitting her mistake, "This project? With the guarantee of the King of Egypt, there should be no problem, right?"
"He is a king first, and the king of Egypt secondly. Just like the descendants of compradors, there is a high probability that he is also a comprador." Alan Wilson said a piece of Chelulu talk that sounded reasonable.
This is a fact. Farouk I is the king. The first thing to consider in this era is not how good it is for Egypt. Fighting for the rights and interests of Egypt now is essentially to maintain the stability of the monarchy.
Therefore, Farouk I's commitment was guaranteed. By the mid-20th century, as a king, he could not alienate himself from Britain. This was determined by his identity. He was a king first and an Egyptian second.
A dragon begets a dragon, a phoenix begets a phoenix, this is how a mouse's son burrows in the ground. The comprador class in Malaya, supported by Alan Wilson with British resources, is inherently impossible to fight with the British to the death.
This will not change just because the generations of Tian Qianqiu and Su Yang have passed. Even if the next generation of comprador sons grow up, they will choose to stand with Britain at critical moments.
Capitalists do not have a motherland. If they did, it would definitely not be a socialist country.
Farouk I's choice will not change because he is an Egyptian. On the contrary, if he is a Copt, he may still have concerns. As the king is an Arab, the main ethnic group in Egypt, he has fewer concerns.
This is just like the Qing court knew that it was going to carry out the Westernization Movement, and if it failed, the Han people would rebel. The Artillery Party is like a zombie. It is the same reason that it is better to buy than to focus on making. There is nothing to fear from the Artillery Party. Nationalism will be against the Qing court, but it is useless against the Artillery Party.
But how many losers are there like the gun gang? He felt that Faruk I still had a great chance of stabilizing his position according to his design. This was not the time to compare abilities. The Gun Party was crooked at its roots.
"Minister, I'll pour you a glass." Pamela Mountbatten obediently got a glass of whiskey for her husband, and complimented with admiration, "You are the savior of the British Empire."
"In a sense, this can't be said to be wrong." Alan Wilson was very benefited by his wife's flattering behavior, and he suddenly felt a little appetizing. The key is to cultivate it from an early age.
This may be the sense of accomplishment of cultivating the system. After completing this matter, he will return to Asia, provide some help within his ability for France's large-scale offensive, and implement the Anglo-French alliance to the end.
This idea was not hidden from Pamela Mountbatten. The two were husband and wife and had nothing to hide.
"Are the French serious this time?" Seeing her husband's solemn look, Pamela Mountbatten chose to believe this judgment unconditionally. "You have to be more restrained. Indonesia has always had thoughts about Malaya."
"It's different. France faces penetration on the ground, while British Malaya and Indonesia are separated by straits." Alan Wilson shook his head. "After all, people live on land, and there are straits that separate us. It is completely different from the troubles faced by the French. Furthermore, there are Australian and New Zealand troops stationed in Malaya, and bringing Australia and New Zealand along with them will also reduce a lot of pressure on us. Of course, you are also responsible for this."
If Pamela Mountbatten had not led the British aristocracy to hold Australia's extremely important iron ore resources in its hands, Britain's influence on Australia might not be as stable as it is now.
Of course, the continued trend of British immigrants to Australia is also one of the reasons.
"Once France's large-scale offensive begins, the surge in military expenditure will inevitably lead to an expansion of demand. This may be the final war dividend." Alan Wilson did not hide his original intention to reap a wave of war dividends, but the topic changed, "But when it comes time to help, I will do my best to save my allies."
That being said, if the battle started at Dien Bien Phu, even if Alan Wilson could persuade the commander of the British forces in Malaya to come to the rescue, he would not be able to do so. Dien Bien Phu is in the interior of Vietnam, almost the farthest place from the coastline.
When the Battle of Dien Bien Phu broke out, it rained continuously for a long time around Dien Bien Phu, which greatly affected the French Air Force. If you give an example, it is simply a replica of the decisive battle in Mengjin Sanfeng Mountain.
The Jin Dynasty counterattacked on the verge of death, and the whole process was planned. Then a snowfall caused the Jin army to collapse.
France relied on the air force to maintain supply lines, and the continuous rain in Dien Bien Phu directly caused the French air force to withdraw from the battlefield.
"I wonder how the French army's combat effectiveness compares with the Zhongxiao Army and the Ziwei Army?" Alan Wilson suddenly had an idea. In fact, it is very similar. Since France was instantly defeated by Germany in World War II, the reason why France has fought so hard on colonial issues is It is also related to the idea that the French army needs to prove its combat effectiveness through war.
Things in London have been completed, and Alan Wilson is about to return to Kuala Lumpur. How much the French need their help at this time, Alan Wilson has the spirit of imperialist master in his heart.
"It's a pity that there are no nuclear bombs. Before the end of my term as commissioner, I must secure the deployment of nuclear bombs for Malaya." Pamela Mountbatten, who was putting away the dishes, heard her husband complain.
Before setting off on his way home, he sent a round of telegrams as usual, and Alan Wilson took the special plane prepared by his wife to go back.
"Brother-in-law, you're leaving again." Princess Margaret put an arm around the man's neck and recovered from the dizziness of the long kiss, her face full of tenderness and sweetness.
"Your Royal Highness, I am the commissioner of Malaya." Alan Wilson wiped his mouth and said with a clear conscience, "It is my job to manage Malaya, and the French army is preparing for a large-scale offensive. , I want to see if there’s anything I can do to help.”
I want to eat steamed buns with human blood, and I also want to be a staunch ally. Alan Wilson is the person I want them all. For the development of Malaya, he must eat the human blood buns of Vietnam's resistance to France. As a colonial empire, he must also help France. There is nothing to say about this.
It was like he had just kissed the princess until she almost suffocated, but she was still confident and had a clear conscience.
"I will come to see you even if I'm not in London." Princess Margaret promised her brother-in-law.
Snapped! Alan Wilson withdrew his palm calmly, "I don't need you to teach me how to do things."
The half-year period has expired and the commissioner has returned! Before boarding the plane, the corners of Alan Wilson's mouth turned up, and he experienced the feeling of victory with a crooked mouth.
