British civil servant

"It looks like we've cut the size of the civil service when nothing has changed."

"But there are so many business units to be established." Richard frowned and said, "Isn't it too obvious?"

"You don't need to do it right away, but start a good start. In the future, we can slowly transfer our people." Alan Wilson replied calmly, turning the pen, "Extensive development is over, and Malaya cannot In terms of quantity, don’t we need to focus on quality? Steel, rubber, and agricultural products all require our strict control, don’t we?”

Chapter 937 Harvest Season

"The investment in Myanmar and the reorganization of public institutions will be a major test for us after many years. Whether we can stabilize the situation in the Malayan colony in one fell swoop is extremely important. Of course, we all understand that it is not enough .”

Alan Wilson saw that the pillars of the British Empire no longer objected, and said earnestly, "We know very well in our hearts how complicated the situation facing the whole of Britain is. It is not enough to count on performing artists in zoos. Is the foundation of civilization solid? It also depends on our own efforts.”

Everyone nodded solemnly, deeply agreeing with the words of their superiors. At the crossroads where the future is uncertain, fate should be in the hands of their own people, but who can be regarded as reliable ones? The ministers and congressmen think it is them, but Civil servants generally think of themselves.

The main resistance to any reform comes from vested interests, but Alan Wilson at least used the reorganization of public institutions to appease the dissatisfaction of his subordinates. This is a good start.

In the final analysis, although the time for laying the foundation has passed, industrial upgrading is not a one-off. The completion of the Asia-Pacific Oil Refining Center will bring new jobs, and there is room to satisfy the British civil servants in Malaya.

If there are no new jobs to arrange once the industrial upgrading is completed, it will be rolled up.

At that time, promoting the reorganization of public institutions will not be as easy as it is now, so before leaving office, Alan Wilson still needs to arrange the work of the colony and eliminate potential thunderstorms as much as possible.

In [-], Malaya's per capita income was on par with Japan's. The only flaw was that the population of Malaya was indeed incomparable with Japan's, and the gap in size could not be smoothed out by manpower.

However, the per capita income of Xiangjiang is a little higher than that of Malaya. Allen Wilson can be sure that no matter at any time, Xiangjiang has never been able to compare with Japan's per capita income. This can only prove one problem. Japan's development is not as good as he remembers. of Japan.

It seems that Japan, which has lost Hokkaido, has been greatly affected. As for the difference in compensation, it can be regarded as a small matter compared with the entire Hokkaido.

Comparing London's domestic statistics, the per capita income of the Malayan colonies is about one-fifth of that of the British mainland, and Xiangjiang slightly exceeds one-fifth. In terms of per capita income, Xiangjiang is slightly greater than or equal to Japan and the Malayan colonies.

"Japan has nothing. Malaya has rubber, tin mines, and palm oil. There are several industries that can be sold. The potential of agriculture and animal husbandry is also greater than that of Japan, which will reduce social operating costs. Don't look at the Japanese. It seems to be a bit stronger than the colonies we manage, but their people have worked harder than Malaya."

All regional commissioners agree with the views of their immediate superiors, but even so, their immediate superiors still do not forget to draw a ladder for Japan. Don't think it is easy. Compare with Myanmar.

Calculate the current per capita income of Burmese people based on the exchange rate of the Burmese kyat to the British pound. We know that from [-] to the present, the development of the Malayan colony is definitely second to none in Asia. Seven times, and nearly seven times that of South Korea.

It is true that Japan and the Malayan colonies cannot be compared with Europe and the United States, but in Asia, they have already left the surrounding area far away. Wu Nu and his party also traveled around the West Malaysia Peninsula, and personally felt the gap like a gap , is so easy to talk about.

The comparison between the Malayan colonies and Japan, Myanmar and South Korea is not so simple. In addition to the cold figures, the hidden costs of all aspects of clothing, food, housing and transportation must also be considered. The pressure of the vast land and resources must be much stronger than that of countries like Japan and South Korea. , Myanmar and South Korea are very backward, but at least for now in Myanmar, it is much easier for a person to live than for a Korean in South Korea.

"Gentlemen and ladies, we have the help of Australia in the steel industry, the European Community and the Commonwealth in the market, and it is true that the US market is open to Japan, so that we do not have an advantage in terms of the market, but the population of Colonial Malaya also Not as much as Japan, and the present market is still sufficient for the population of the colonies."

"Using the Malayan colony as the center to radiate the surrounding area, through Xiangjiang and Goa controlled by Portugal, to connect the two most populous markets in order to stabilize Britain's current international status. Whether this can be done depends on our I have worked hard. Investing in Myanmar is just the beginning. Regardless of whether I leave office or who the next commissioner is, this goal should not change. I wonder if everyone agrees?"

"Agree!" Everyone gave a uniform response, never fighting such a rich battle.

"Then, let's start working. I have a hunch that this year will be a harvest season." Alan Wilson nodded with a smile.

At the beginning of [-], the investment in Burma and the reorganization of public institutions began with great fanfare and stealth. Well, let's celebrate what Britain has done for the colony over the years.

Without the market of the Commonwealth, what would the Malayan colonies eat?What would the Malayan colonies drink without Australia's steel supply?

Don’t forget the well digger when you drink water, and sing praises to Britain, even if it’s just to sing praises to Her Majesty the Queen, is it too much?

"Honey, what are you doing in a daze?" Pamela Mountbatten was very happy, because oil drilling off the coast of Sarawak had begun. She is the ruler of Sarawak and has been in a good mood recently.

"I'm thinking about any hidden dangers." Alan Wilson came back to his senses. The hidden dangers are obvious. In a few days, there will be a landing exercise for the British troops stationed in Ma. The location of the exercise is in the Natuna Islands. It is to set up a few cannons on the eastern coastline to threaten Indonesia. Who makes Jakarta a coastal port city, within the range of battleships.

The entire offshore islands near the Strait of Malacca are in the hands of the United Kingdom, and some islands are jointly administered by the United Kingdom and the Netherlands.This kind of cross-management, of course, is to keep warm with the colonial newspaper group, and it also has another role. Once it has to leave, it can also create territorial disputes.

"How about awarding honors based on your administrative achievements in the Malaya colony?" Pamela Mountbatten said mysteriously, "Honey, as long as you nod, I will take care of everything else."

"It suddenly occurred to me that there is a hidden danger in the end." Alan Wilson slapped his thigh and said, "The Isthmus of Carat, the part of the land ceded from Myanmar and Thailand, is different from the ruler of the Malayan colony itself, such a large piece If there is no ruler in the land, the cabinet should have two rulers."

The Carat Isthmus has been under military control since the cession, and now it serves as the grain merchant base of the Mountbatten Group.

"Is it a sultan?" Pamela Mountbatten sighed, her husband is destined to go further and further on the road of reversing history, "but there is no suitable candidate."

"There is one candidate, Emperor Bao Dai of Vietnam. But now the number of monarchs in the Malayan colony, together with you, is eleven, and Bao Dai is an even number. There is still one missing. The area of ​​the Kra Isthmus belonged to Thailand in the past. Together with Myanmar, the combined area is too large, and the key lies in the Malay Peninsula. Such a large area cannot be used as an administrative unit. At least it must be divided into two parts.” Alan Wilson suddenly laughed out loud when he said this, “Do you think Your Royal Highness, how about being the ruler of one of the states, just with a name like you, and usually not in the Malaya colonies at all."

"This balances the balance. The number of monarchs is odd, so there is no need to worry about deadlocks." Alan Wilson clapped his hands. "In this way, all administrative units, except the original Straits Settlements, will have monarchs."

"I'm the monarch?" Princess Margaret was stunned. Could it be a kind of imperial appointment?

"What? Dear Princess? You don't want to?" Alan Wilson is holding a map of the Isthmus of Clarke, looking smug, just like the British Prime Minister Lloyd George at the Paris Peace Conference.

A random swipe on the world map is the birth of a new country, and now he swipe it casually, which means that there are two monarchs in the Malayan colony.

He has no culture, so he just re-established the names of the two new administrative district units of the colony in the Kra Isthmus according to the borders that belonged to Myanmar and Thailand in the past.

The land that originally belonged to Myanmar was called Delin State, and the land that originally belonged to Thailand was called Nam Tai State.

Princess Margaret's face was hot, and she walked up to her brother-in-law who was of the same status as her husband, and tiptoed to kiss her.

"Pamela's down there..." Alan Wilson was panicking, waving his teeth and claws.

Princess Margaret hummed, she forgot about her wife when she did that, and now she is afraid of it.Following the sound of Pamela Mountbatten's footsteps going upstairs, she immediately hid away.

"But Emperor Bao Dai, he was the former emperor of South Vietnam. If he were the ruler of one of the states, would he attract the royalists from South Vietnam? This would be a trouble for the Malaya colonies."

When Pamela Mountbatten appeared, she saw her husband walking back and forth with his hands behind his back, muttering to himself.

These are all things that cannot be prevented. Allen Wilson does not want any changes in the process and results of the Vietnam War.Compared with the disgraceful events in the United States, Emperor Bao Da is really just as light as a feather.

"Thinking after dinner." Pamela Mountbatten called softly to her husband, and soon the three of them went downstairs.

Alan Wilson thought hard about the hidden dangers every day. This is not a good working state. It happened that Xia Meng came to Singapore to support the army, so he went to the military camp to relax and pay close attention to the landing exercise in the Natuna Islands.

Chapter 938 The Fanatic of the Converts

A female star who lives in Hong Kong and works in the British territory. Anyway, Alan Wilson thinks it's okay.

Unlike the original Singapore, the current Malayan colony, Singapore has a much larger area, and the land along the northern coast next to Singapore has also been divided into Singapore. With the addition of the Riau Islands, the area of ​​​​Singapore has almost expanded by ten times. , into more than 5000 square kilometers.

On the side facing the land across the sea, there is a strait with a width of [-] kilometers, which is now connected by a bridge across the sea.

In this way, Singapore Island and the Malay Peninsula have a land passage. The two ends of this Singapore-Malaysia cross-sea bridge are Singapore Island and the newly-built entertainment area, which are used to serve the British troops stationed in Malaysia.

Alan Wilson took Richard with him in the Rolls-Royce Gintama equipped by his wife, and walked around the entertainment area. He said with satisfaction, "The sign belt is a bit exotic, and the first impression it gives is , there are no locals here, Vietnamese, Korean and Latin are all added, don’t be too troublesome. Just such a small job can solve our big troubles, so whether it is Chinese or Malay, subconsciously feel that Women in this area have nothing to do with them."

"Maybe, but I believe they can overcome the language barrier when they visit." After hearing this, Richard showed a smile that any man could understand.

Can only people from the garrison come here to spend?This is not necessarily the case. The social atmosphere of the Malayan colonies is so conservative, but physical needs exist objectively. Maybe many local residents will come here to relax.

Alan Wilson couldn't help laughing, and then said with a straight face, "As we all know, we can't repatriate these poor women who jumped out of the fire pit, which is not humane at all. In a general sense, their existence helps to reduce The garrison is in conflict with the local residents. I believe that men know very well what is desire and what is love. We can only do this, and it is much more harmonious than the relationship between the U.S. troops stationed in Japan and the local residents.”

While the two were talking, a British soldier on vacation was passing by holding a woman's hand.

The people here seem to have gotten used to it, Alan Wilson continued, "Although it is shameful to say it, in order to prevent the spread of diseases in the army, the entertainment area must be managed. Taking a step back, it can also increase taxes. .”

Alan Wilson does not want the British army to be protested by family members in the country like the US troops stationed in Japan.Although this is a last resort, once it is publicized, it will not sound very good.

Richard also nodded. There are [-] to [-] British troops stationed there. If you really don't care, there will be no soldiers holding their heads. There is no way to commit any crimes against the local residents, and there is no way to establish an entertainment area.

After inspecting it, the two got on the car and crossed the strait, and when they arrived at the place, they went directly to a hotel with a golf course.

The owner of this golf course is still Queen Nanfang, but Queen Nanfang is not here. He has already notified Queen Nanfang that he is going to negotiate a big deal. Xia Meng is currently living here.

Eventually the heads of the civil servants of the two Malayan colonies arrived at the Far East Joint Operations Command.The journey to support the army has officially started. Xia Meng, who is stationed in the new armored division, is singing on stage, asking the officers and soldiers who have been trained for a long time to offer their loyalty to Her Majesty the Queen.

"Commissioner Wilson, Chief Richard." When the two entered the barracks, some officers with familiar faces greeted them one after another.

The two have great prestige in the eyes of the officers and soldiers of the garrison. After all, many of them went to the Civil Administration Office to ask for wrong soldiers.When Alan Wilson was away, it was Richard who took care of these things.

"You're welcome, gentlemen. Are the enlisted soldiers of the Nanyang Division satisfactory to you?" Alan Wilson took out a box of cigars and distributed them to the officers who surrounded him.

"The Chinese observe discipline and obey orders. They are indeed a good source of soldiers." The colonel who was asked about it approved with a face, "These young soldiers, at least they didn't make us worry about it during training."

"That's good. We can't rely on the mainland for all military defense. Once the training is completed, some troops may be needed to station in the Middle East." Alan Wilson looked up at the flag of the Nanyang Armored Division.The Union Jack in the upper left corner, with a dragon on the blue background.

As for the Marine Division composed of Malays, it is also very distinctive. It is also a Mizi flag in the upper left corner, with a crescent moon pattern on the blue bottom and the Peace Church. The official designation is the Royal Malayan First Armored Division and the Royal Marines. a division.

There is no description error, the British Army does not have a royal title, it does not mean that there are no royal titles in the army.As for the marine division belonging to the Royal Navy, just call it normally.These two troops are colonial troops, which is the same concept as the original Anglo-Indian Legion.

However, in terms of treatment, it is the same as that of the British Army stationed in Ma, and there is no preference for one over another.

Alan Wilson watched the establishment of these two armies with his own eyes. If there is a difference in treatment, the two armies are the source of overthrowing the British rule. He absolutely cannot let this happen.

"We haven't received any complaints recently, which means that the gentlemen get along well with the recruited soldiers." As soon as Richard opened his mouth, some officers were embarrassed.It stands to reason that the military will handle the affairs of the military itself.

However, in the formation of these two units, once there is a conflict between officers and soldiers, people from the Kuala Lumpur Administrative Office will come and take over.This is of course abnormal, but Lieutenant General Scone can't do anything about it. Now that Mountbatten has become a marshal and leads the British Army, Navy and Air Force, what can he do?

"Actually, as long as they treat each other as equals, I believe these two troops can be trusted." Alan Wilson said with a smile, "I want to visit the barracks and have a good talk with the Chinese soldiers, don't you mind?"

Even if he minded, he would act as if he didn't mind, and the two civil servant leaders started supporting the army in such a grandiose manner.

The reason why he brought Richard here is also because the head of the administrative bureau has a strong language talent, and now there is no obstacle to communicating with the Chinese. This is also one of the reasons why he is optimistic about Richard as the next commissioner.

Faced with many questions, Alan Wilson also gave answers, and finally said with a clear conscience, "Actually, you are no different from us. Everyone is loyal to Her Majesty the Queen. As for the orders of the London government, there are no restrictions on you. force."

"Before the queen, we are all equal, and Malaya is not an exploited colony. I believe you all know how much Malaya's development has been helped by the United Kingdom in the past ten years. If you don't believe it, look at it. Looking at the surrounding countries, whether they are independent or not, is there any place that can match the standard of living in Malaya?"

"The income of Malaya residents is four and a half times that of Thailand, nearly seven times that of China and South Korea, seven times that of Myanmar, ten times that of Indonesia, and twice that of the Philippines. What we need to worry about now is the smuggling people nearby, not Some unrealistic questions."

All the numbers mentioned by Allen Wilson are true. It has to be said that the Philippines is still quite strong in this era.

After answering his doubts, he walked out of the barracks. Richard also said something about the situation, "A lot of officers and soldiers in the garrison are already buying real estate. I don't know if it's a good thing."

"The officers and soldiers of the garrison live in a colony with five times the income of the mainland with British wages. They can get five times the happiness." Alan Wilson looked at Richard and knew what the other party was worried about when he wanted to stop talking.

The impact is two-way, and it has never been a unilateral indoctrination. If the officers and soldiers of the British army feel that they are happier living in Malaya than in the mainland, if they really want to choose between Malaya and the UK, it is true. Not necessarily local.

"How many people want to settle here?" Alan Wilson asked his subordinates, wanting a specific number.

"The number of people has exceeded a thousand." Richard sighed, "and people apply every month. Some service officers and soldiers live here directly after they leave the army. I feel that this is in line with the Commissioner's announcement of destroying military marriages." It is related to the military support regulations, and these local soldiers brought their families over because of this factor."

Alan Wilson raised his eyebrows. Isn't this a rehearsal for the German far-right convener to join the Peace Church?Converts are fanatical, but in reverse.It seems that when he formulated the relevant regulations, the provision that as long as he has served in the military, he will be guaranteed for life is a bit too much.

"Mr. Wilson, why are you here?" Xia Meng retreated involuntarily. During the day at the barracks, she saw this man a few times, but she was still a little flustered when he really appeared.

"What is Miss Xia Meng talking about? In Malaya, it's normal for me to appear anywhere." Alan Wilson closed the door without changing his expression, "I have a big deal and I want to make a deal with you. talk."

Entering the familiar deep space orbit, this manned spaceflight mission was a complete success. Xia Meng, who was holding the experience of riding a rocket, looked at each other. Alan Wilson asked, "I heard that many young talents have opened up to you. Pursuit, it saddens me."

"There are two, one is a writer and the other is a businessman." Xia Meng slumped in the man's arms weakly, and whispered weakly, "But I didn't respond, don't get me wrong."

"It's really touching." Alan Wilson squeezed Xia Meng's chin, looked at the expression on his face, and kissed him directly, "Now Xiangjiang is also the leading economically developed region in Asia, and it is also a place with Malaya. I need a spokesperson for high-end luxury goods, I think you are very suitable. You are a popular lover..."

Xia Meng is naturally willing, and the imperial commissioner can see this, so does he want a little return too much?How many celebrities in the later generations want to be high-end spokespersons, once they get it, they can't wait to promote it for a year.

Chapter 939 Fake Father Wilson

It just so happened that Heidi Lamarr hadn't left yet, and the imperial commissioner used his increasingly proficient summoning technique to ask the female president, who has shares in both Louis Vuitton and L'Oreal, to have a good talk with the spokesperson for the Asia-Pacific region.

Heidi Rama came, and glanced at Xia Meng with scrutiny. Her eyes were still quite surprised. Let alone whether she is beautiful or not, Xia Meng's height is rare among Asians, and she said to herself, " Is it because of my young age that I dislike me for being too old..."

Xia Meng faintly felt that the magnificent female star in front of her seemed to have some faint hostility towards her.

"Miss Heidi, you are so beautiful." Xia Meng greeted from the heart, hoping to resolve the vague hostility.

"Oh, please sit down. In Asia, Miss Xia Meng has a wide range of supporters." Heidi Rama said in a business-like tone, "especially in the British territories, where you are in Vivi It’s Ann’s company, so it’s not surprising.”

That's not surprising, it means that Xia Meng was succeeded by an imperial commissioner who had the habit of gnawing grass on the side of the nest. Heidi Lamarr just didn't expect that Alan Wilson would still like exotic customs.

Heidi Rama still doesn't understand men with the same status as her husband. He not only likes exotic customs, but also has a wide range of knowledge. After receiving the tiger penis wine handed over by Queen Nanfang, "I really appreciate the idea of ​​eating what you eat in the East. .”

Empress Nanfang blushed slightly, feeling deeply ashamed of her submission. This man bullied her, and she even helped him to make up her body. Thinking of this, she almost shed tears of bitterness.

"Queen, I'm actually good to you. Without me, would you be able to run the golf course in the colony? Think about it carefully." Alan Wilson put down his wine glass, pointed to his thigh and let Queen Nanfang sit over, "I There is really a good thing, and it is good for you to discuss it with you."

Alan Wilson has already used this skill quite well, both public and private. Regarding the Tanintharyi Province, the land of the Kra Isthmus that originally belonged to Myanmar, the newly planned Delin State needs a monarch.

In fact, he mainly worked hard for his sister-in-law, but at this time, the administrative division of the Malaya colony, if Princess Margaret takes office, there will be an even number, which is not conducive to the simple principle of the minority obeying the majority.

Queen Nanfang, who had been stripped into white sheep, looked at Alan Wilson in astonishment, "Can it succeed?"

"Emperor Bao Da was trained by France. We don't trust him very much, and becoming a monarch again may involve us in the chaotic situation in South Vietnam." While stroking the body of Queen Nanyue, Alan Wilson was full of talk Indifference to business, "So this matter is an idea that does not know the consequences. It mainly depends on whether the queen can make Britain feel sincere."

Alan Wilson was not stingy, showing off his talents as a prime minister, and personally informed Queen Nanfang of the current difficulties. This also had to take into account Ali Khan's perception. You must know that Ali Khan bought the monarch of Sabah .

If Queen Nanfang wants good results, the process of paying the money is also indispensable.It depends on financial resources. The reason why Empress Nanfang married Emperor Bao Da was not only because of her own appearance, but also in line with the concept of a good family.

Empress Nan Fang was born in Gogong, Tien Giang Province, Cochin China, a French colony at the time in the Mekong Delta.

Her father, Nguyen You Ho, was a wealthy businessman who was born into a Catholic family in Gokong.Through the introduction of the Archbishop of Saigon, he served as the secretary of the billionaire Le Fat in southern Vietnam, and finally married Le Fat's daughter Le Thi Binh.

Empress Nanfang's family's business is mainly concentrated in France. The current South Vietnamese government has not confiscated the assets of Queen Nanfang's family in South Vietnam because of this relationship. It is to give some thin face to the background of Empress Nanfang.

If Emperor Baoda did not have the throne, he would not be able to suppress the queen's family with his own financial resources. This is why Empress Nanfang separated after Emperor Baoda lost the throne.

"We are definitely not interested in supporting Emperor Bao the Great, and your eldest son has a strong French color." Alan Wilson said this rhetorical question, "I don't know how the queen thinks."

He has made it very clear that Britain certainly does not trust Emperor Bao the Great, even with his eldest son.Only the youngest son who is underage has hope, and it is necessary to persuade Queen Nanfang to abolish the elder and replace the younger.
