British civil servant

Of course, what interests Harold Wilson the most is the metaphor of changing a plane for a million shirts.Very vivid, "Alan, as you said, the times are advancing and technology is developing, but industries such as the textile industry support a large number of jobs."

"Secretary of Congress, the added value of the textile industry is too limited. We can't sell a shirt for a hundred pounds, right? Who would buy it!" Alan Wilson expressed helplessness with a face full of helplessness.

In fact, it is not that no country can do it, just add the color of luxury.But it just so happened that Britain couldn't do it. The countries in Europe that could do it were France and Italy. The French were famous, and Italy even had the bonus of the Roman Empire.

Although some Asian countries like to prove that Italy has nothing to do with the Roman Empire, Alan Wilson knows that European countries recognize the history of Italy, and there is no market for the remarks of German barbarians.

"It was a pleasure chatting with you. I believe this trip to the British-occupied area will be a good experience." Harold Wilson noticed that the young civil servant in front of him seemed very talkative.

There is no rejection of him!When I came to Hannover today, how could Harold Wilson, who used to be a civil servant, not understand the cold reception he received?Just a few months ago, I was part of a group of civil servants.

Now they are on the opposite side and have become MPs. These civil servants in the British-occupied area want to show themselves off.

Harold Wilson was very pleased with the friendliness shown by Alan Wilson who came to receive him naturally.

In the afternoon, Harold Wilson met with the members of the British Occupied Area Trade Committee and participated in a boring and very boring meeting. When he was a civil servant, Harold Wilson did not realize that this kind of meeting was so boring.

Changing his identity, the meetings he used to attend frequently also changed in the eyes of Harold Wilson.

After the meeting, Harold Wilson made a decision in his mind. He personally went to the British-occupied area to see with his own eyes what the current state of the British-occupied area was like, so that he could tell the Prime Minister when he returned.

"Mr. Harold is still a man of action." After hearing this, Alan Wilson praised with a full face. "This is so admirable. It should be said that Labor Party politicians like to get close to the people."

Get close to the people!Harold Wilson liked this term very much. After he became a politician, he quickly changed his thinking. He liked everything to be linked to votes, although the Germans in the British-occupied area did not have the right to vote in the United Kingdom.But it can still be considered a good exercise opportunity.

"It is mainly reflected in the fact that the British Empire has no ill will towards the Germans." Although Harold Wilson was thinking about his own future, he still put the national image of the British Empire first.

"Yes, this may be an opportunity for reconciliation. We need to create an image that is friendly and not divorced from the people at the bottom." Alan Wilson also talked along the lines of Harold Wilson, "We need to let the Germans understand that, Parliamentarians in the UK are actually the same as ordinary people in Germany, which can create a sense of intimacy.”

This is similar to the setting of people in later generations. The stars are like the positive and pleasing image created by the public.Personality is to celebrities what packaging is to commodities, making it easier to attract fans.The common ones are foodies, honest people, and academics...

In fact, if you think about it carefully, politicians who are dealing with elections anytime, anywhere are similar to the needs of show stars.

They are all the same hypocrisy, but on the surface they have to behave against their will to win favor.

Harold Wilson nodded in approval, and was very satisfied with Alan Wilson's narration. Although coming to the British-occupied area caused a little unhappiness, it seems that it is not completely fruitless.

In fact, the respected MPs of the ruling party are ready to make speeches. Although they may not be used, if they are used, they can be used as an experience for him just entering the political arena.

It is precisely because he has just entered the political arena that Harold Wilson still has a lot to learn, and speeches are one of them.

Because of his lack of experience, Harold Wilson also needed time to prepare, and refinement was the most difficult. The fourth-level tactics for politicians' speeches are nothing more than these four steps.

The first stage of the speech: be able to speak down; the second stage: make the short speech long.It shows that the knowledge reserve is enough; the third stage: make the long talk short.It shows that the main point has been grasped; the fourth stage: grow as long as you want, short as you want to be short, and completely control the field.It shows that you have mastered the rules and can speak in a targeted manner, and the effect can be the best.

Harold Wilson, who is only 29 years old, and Alan Wilson, who is nominally in his 20s, are both preparing for the Congressional Secretary's trip to the British-occupied area, but the preparation places are different.

In all fairness, Alan Wilson has no experience in this area, and he also knows that Harold Wilson actually doesn't either.The double-Wilson combination is at the stage of beginners.

From the second day onwards, the double-Wilson team started their tour of the British-occupied area. Simply speaking, they walked from one ruin to another. When he was in China, Harold Wilson only heard about the tragedy of the British-occupied area. In Wilson's eyes, it should be what London looked like when it was bombed by Germany.

But after seeing it with my own eyes, I realized that it was completely different. It had been three months since the war, and there were still ruins as far as the eye could see. From time to time, people could still dig out the corpses inside from the ruins of reason.

But it is not without gratification. For example, in the report of the British Occupied Area Trade Committee, it is not a lie to mention the enthusiasm shown by German women in the reconstruction.

After linking rations to labor, the Germans are astonishingly hardworking, which has now been confirmed by Harold Wilson.

From Hannover to Hamburg, from Cologne to Essen, Harold Wilson, who had entered the state of a politician, broke out with shocking physical strength. Alan Wilson even had the illusion that he was accompanying the other party in the general election.

It is completely unnecessary, even traveling to two cities a day, which is more diligent than Alan Wilson himself in the Ruhr area some time ago. New understanding.

In late August, Alan Wilson and Harold Wilson arrived at the last stop of the plan, Bonn. Bonn finally looked like a city, at least compared to other cities in the Ruhr area that were damaged. Can see past.

Isabella Bokina, head of the German Women's Work and Labor Bureau in Bonn, led the women organized by the labor bureau to welcome Hadro Wilson's arrival. This kind of welcoming scene made Alan Wilson slightly frown, Because similar scenes always appear in countries similar to the Soviet Union.

But considering that during the Third Reich, similar organizational welcomes should have been commonplace, and there is nothing surprising about it.

If Harold Wilson had been German, he might have gotten some sort of Friend of Ladies, and of course it's about the same now.

Harold Wilson, who received a warm welcome, seemed flattered. The speeches he had been preparing all along finally came in handy. Other cities were too badly damaged, and the local women didn't have time to listen to an Englishman.

Unlike Bonn, the basic conditions of a city have basically been restored, which can just be used to set a model and prove the British Empire's efforts to rebuild the British-occupied area.

"Bonn is the hometown of Beethoven..." Harold Wilson opened a long-prepared but useless speech to the citizens of Bonn who warmly welcomed him.

"The hair is cut short, and the temperament is different." Alan Wilson stared straight at Isabella Bokina, listening to Harold Wilson's speech with one ear and out the other.

It is very similar to the wife of the Soviet boxing champion played by Brigitte Nelson in the Rocky movie, with short hair that is capable and capable, with a hint of strong woman temperament.

Chapter 136 White Lie

Don't blame Alan Wilson for being honest, as a single-minded person, he just has no resistance to beautiful women.If the range is larger, those above the average level can cause an instinctive reaction, it all depends on the amount of clothes.

Isabella Bokina's skin is as white as jade, her eyes are as blue as the sea, even if she wears very simple ordinary clothes and a dark green coat, she can't hide her devilish figure. After all, that kind of impactful inner beauty, Ellen Wilson knew it firsthand.

Isabella Pokina, who now has short hair, has a pretty face with a hint of coldness, and it also reflects a completely different temperament, which makes people want to explore one or two.

Gradually, the waves on Isabella Pokina's chest began to rise and fall, and the man's eyes were undisguised, as if trying to melt people in half. Rolling his eyes, his eyes met, and finally aroused the spirit of the imperial civil servant in Alan Wilson's heart.

"Hardworking and strong German women will definitely occupy an important position in the economic construction of Germany after the war."

Harold Wilson's stinky and long speech finally reached Alan Wilson's ears. After the speech was over, the surrounding Germans cheered and applauded.

"Liaison officer, it's a telegram from the Indian who often communicates with you." Alan Wilson's horseman, Mark, found a time to take out the telegram.

Alan Wilson took it apart and looked at it, sighing in his heart, if it doesn't come, it won't come, will it come?It's all here. The machines disassembled by the Chennai Tobacco Factory in British India have arrived. They have not arrived in Germany, but have arrived in the British port. After unloading the local goods, they will drive to Germany.

In this way, the time is not particularly tight, and the money printing machine has been approaching its loyal German subjects step by step.

Once in Germany, the tobacco leaves transported by freighters can make Alan Wilson's pockets bulge.Another thing is that the smuggling in the US-occupied areas will gradually become more and more lawless.

But there is still a problem, that is, once the tobacco factory is put into production, it is absolutely impossible for Alan Wilson to eat such a large part of the profits. To be honest, the profits in it are enough for a liaison officer to be assassinated a hundred times.

Marx once said, "As soon as there is an appropriate profit, capital will be bold. If there is a 20.00% profit, it will be used everywhere; if there is a 50.00% profit, it will be active; if there is a [-]% profit If there is a [-]% profit, it will dare to trample on all human laws; if there is a [-]% profit, it will dare to commit any crime, even risking hanging its head.”

Once the tobacco production line is put into production, the profit here is more than [-]% in today's Germany?What's more, this also delays the flow of smuggling across the Atlantic?

If Alan Wilson could only see the profits brought by the money printing machine, but not the risks, he would say goodbye to the world in a few days. Anyway, it was not a car accident, but drinking water die.

At night, Alan Wilson, who sneaked into the Hellman family's house, finally succeeded in Isabella Bokina's temperamental change, lit a cigarette with a melancholy look and puffed.

The sweaty Bokina was a little puzzled, and asked lazily, "You seem to have something to do?"

"That's right!" Allen Wilson told the whole story about the tobacco factory machinery, and pointed out the current tightness of tobacco in Germany and the possible huge profits.

Isabella Bokina was taken aback. The family has changed a lot since Allen Wilson left last time. It can be said that she, a woman with a simple life, finally saw how the rich lived.

But this is far inferior to what Alan Wilson is saying now. If what he said is true, the profits will of course be astronomical, but for ordinary Germans, of course, the intensity of exploitation has increased. .

Even Isabella Bokina, who had undergone professional training, was too shocked to speak, and said after a long time, "This should be a good thing, Alan, why are you frowning?"

"You haven't heard a word from you, it's what you German Marx said..." Alan Wilson repeated the famous saying that dared to trample on all laws.

I've heard of it so much, it's a compulsory course in school!Isabella Bokina slandered in her heart, but she also understood Alan Wilson's worry, and asked with a gloomy expression, "What do you want to do?"

"Of course it is to share profits. I am going to let all members of the trade committee share profits. But there is still a difficulty, that is, we are all British, and the production line of this cigarette factory must be established in Germany." Alan Wilson said Something went wrong, "It's actually not a big deal that we are all British. The key is that we are all British civil servants, and now we are all managers of the British-occupied area, which is very troublesome."

"We can't have a direct relationship with this tobacco factory. Otherwise, even if the domestic investigation is done in the past, it will be detrimental to future progress. Therefore, it is best for this tobacco factory to be run by a German. That copy was sent to the hand on time, that’s all.”

Isabella Bokina couldn't stop nodding at first, but then she suddenly came to her senses, wasn't she talking about herself?Surprised, "You mean I will run this factory? But I don't have this experience."

"You seem to have no experience as the director of the Women's Work and Labor Bureau. Isn't this a good job?" Alan Wilson pulled Pokina's warm body into his arms and said contentedly, "You just need to be The owner of this tobacco factory is fine. If you have nothing to do, go and see the production process. As long as it leaves the factory, you don’t have to worry about all the links of transportation, sales, etc. The trade committee will handle everything. Of course, you can’t ignore it to some British commanders' share..."

Alan Wilson was still thinking about his own plan to make a fortune, and Isabella Bokina was also uneasy. On the one hand, she was shocked by the huge profits, and on the other hand, she was deeply shocked by the greed and shamelessness of imperialism.

At the same time, she was also thankful for her luck that she had to witness with her own eyes the huge profit network in the British-occupied area and become a part of it.

Just when he was thinking this way, Alan Wilson had already recovered, and he climbed up frivolously, wanting to have another round.

"Alan?" Isabella Bokina stretched out her hand to hold Alan Wilson's face, and spoke in a flattering voice.

"What's the matter?" Allen Wilson couldn't figure it out, and there was a slight pause in his movements, and then he nodded.

Isabella Bokina, who was breathing irregularly, took two deep breaths and said intermittently, "How about Anna! I still have to work now, and I'm actually a little afraid of getting pregnant. Anna can do it when it's inconvenient."

As soon as the words fell, Isabella Bokina felt Alan Wilson swell, and clearly spoke to the other party's heart.

We can't blame Alan Wilson for being worthless, but if any man is asked this question, who would refuse?If she really refused, Alan Wilson could only say admiration, anyway, she, an ordinary person, couldn't refuse.He was quickly knocked down by sugar-coated shells.

Before dawn, Alan Wilson sneaked out of the house again. He didn't even have such self-discipline when he went to work.But there is no way, if Harold Wilson wakes up and looks for him, he has to explain what he did, which is also a trouble.

Harold Wilson did get up early, but Alan Wilson came back earlier, perfectly blinding the future Prime Minister of the British Empire. It was just a little strange that Alan Wilson seemed to be out of spirits, "Alan, have you been in Luzhou recently? I am exhausted from inspecting everywhere in Erqu, and I am a few years older than you, but I am not as tired as you."

"Dear Mr. Congressman, I'm not a politician." Alan Wilson saw that the other party had made excuses for himself, and directly took advantage of the slope to go down the donkey path, "Actually, it's hard for me to imagine that you, with a scholarly temperament, would actually With such ample physical strength, he inspected the situation in major cities in the Ruhr area."

This sentence is half to change the subject, half to be a compliment. Alan Wilson can't say that he was overworked last night. He went to condolences to the director of the Bonn Women's Work and Labor Bureau, right?I dare not even sleep, and I have to come back before you wake up.

"Although I'm a scholar, I'm still in good health." Harold Wilson laughed very satisfied when he heard this. There were no outsiders here, so he naturally put away the pipe he had always carried with him, and took out a cigar , sucking it up like Churchill, "I think Bonn is a typical report on the restoration and reconstruction of the British-occupied area. This proves that the British-occupied area trade committee has contributed to the restoration of the British-occupied area."

"Ah?" He yawned heavily, Alan Wilson rubbed his face, and agreed, "No problem, the citizens in China don't know that Bonn's damage is not serious, I'm going to prepare a few pictures of the ruins of other cities The photo, then compared with the municipal photo of Bonn that has now been cleaned up, should do the trick.”

"Very well, what the German people need now is confidence. In fact, the truth of some things is not particularly important. We are not intentionally deceiving the Germans." Harold Wilson commented appreciatively, "It's a kind of... um ?”

"White lie!" Alan Wilson added understandingly, "Our intention is to do good deeds and make Germans more confident in the future."

"That's right, a white lie." Harold Wilson praised with satisfaction, "It must be said that Alan provided great help along the way when I came to the British-occupied area for inspection. cooperation at work."

Chapter 137 Distribution of Tobacco Benefits

"Oh, Mr. Congressman, I'm actually looking forward to that day very much." Alan Wilson almost bowed his head and shouted to the current MP Harold Wilson and the future Prime Minister Harold Wilson.

As a professional civil servant, Alan Wilson could not be biased against party, and at the same time, he did not misapprove of the Labor Party.Although the current Prime Minister Attlee is indeed planning to abandon British India.

But looking at the current situation in the British mainland, if you don't give up, is it true that you have to face the friendly eyes of the United States and the Soviet Union, mobilize 100 million soldiers, and go to India to fight non-stop right after World War II?

France is much more resolute towards the colonies than Britain. When Charles de Gaulle came to power, he held a referendum on the Algeria issue in France. If the war continued, he would be fully recruited. The whole country was mobilized and Algeria fought to the end. Finally, France also withdrew from Algeria after the referendum.

When Harold Wilson came to power, it was already in the 60s, and the situation in the British Empire deteriorated more obviously.The more and more colonies are lost, relying on the population and resources of the UK itself, it is impossible to support a huge military force.

At the Potsdam Conference, Labor Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevin, at the handover to the Conservative Party, also said, "There has been no change in our obligations with regard to foreign policy. His Majesty's Government will never accept the view that, The UK is no longer a big country, or we can no longer play the role of a big country. We still shoulder an important historical mission."

Harold Wilson, who completed his research on the British-occupied area, returned to Hannover and returned to London by military plane.

Alan Wilson asked Arim to come over non-stop, asking about the tobacco production line and how much tobacco leaves were shipped on the ship, which can be used to start production.

As far as the current situation in Germany is concerned, Alan Wilson said something bad. The Germans are not qualified to be picky at all, as long as they smoke, they can even deal with grass leaves.In this case, there is only a question of whether or not, rather than a question of whether it is good or not.

"There are less than [-] tons of tobacco leaves! They are all grown by tobacco farmers in South India." Arim thought for a while and gave the answer, "Maharaja Ali Khan, he took great care of the commissioner's needs. Subsequent acquisitions are still in progress , There are still cargo ships carrying tobacco leaves in the Indian Ocean.”

"It's enough for a short time." Alan Wilson thought for a while, and it was enough for a short time.He did not know the level of tobacco demand in Germany, but he knew that when the People's Republic of China was first established, the annual output of tobacco leaves in the country was only [-] tons.

Even if they don’t all smoke, China’s population is right there. The population of the British-occupied area is more than one-third of that of the Shikoku-occupied area, but it is definitely less than 3000 million people, and most of them are women.As long as there is no big gap, the profit of this transaction cannot be calculated at all.

"Go upstream along the Rhine River and send the machine and tobacco leaves to Bonn. I'll talk to Tim Brand and Hadro." Alan Wilson's heart was pounding, and he decided to give tobacco employment benefits, Contribute to the future citizens of the capital of the Federal Republic of Germany.

After all, London now regards Bonn as a model for the reconstruction and restoration of the British-occupied area.Alan Wilson also has to make a negligible contribution for the face of the British Empire.

Let Arim do the transshipment, Alan Wilson drove the civilian version of Mercedes-Benz directly to the headquarters of the Trade Commission in the British-occupied area, and went directly to the two actual managers of the Trade Commission, Tim Brand and Harold, After avoiding the others, he calmly entered the topic.

"I have shipped a batch of machines and raw materials from British India, and I am going to start production in Germany. Sir Barron from British India has helped me a lot." Alan Wilson sat down calmly, without panic Speak unhurriedly to narrate.

"And then?" Tim Brand sat in his seat and asked noncommittally.

"This is a tobacco production line, and there are more than 2000 tons of tobacco leaves." Allen Wilson said leisurely.

"What?" The two deputy secretaries-general blurted out, stood up almost at the same time, and stared at Alan Wilson.

What is in short supply in Germany now, wouldn't the two deputy secretaries-general who are already in charge of the Trade Commission of the British-occupied area know?

The two of them knew too well that cigarettes are almost gold now, a hard currency that runs rampant in the British-occupied areas and even in the whole of Germany.You can also be confident that there are only varying degrees of differences within Europe.

With cigarettes, there is almost everything, oil paintings, cultural relics, gold and jewelry, all of which are not a problem.It is not an exaggerated imagination at all, but a fact in front of you.

Now Alan Wilson said that a tobacco production line has arrived at the port with tobacco leaves. This news is like putting a high-explosive bomb in front of the two deputy secretaries-general, making their ears buzzing, and their heads are buzzing for a while. All in a blank state.

"Alan!" Harold licked the corner of his dry mouth and just said, but Tim Brand reached out to stop his colleague, and said with a smile, "I believe Sir Barron must have spent a lot of money on this matter." It took a lot of painstaking efforts to make this transportation possible. Of course, as the liaison officer between British India and Europe, Alan, you must have worked hard for this."

"Yes, Deputy Secretary-General." The offense and defense were in a different position in an instant, but Alan Wilson did not pursue the victory, and maintained the politeness and respect he had when he first came in. "It is mainly because the colleagues in British India have worked hard, and I I just happened to be at the meeting and made a small contribution.”

"Actually, Harold and I saw at a glance when we received Congressman Wilson that you are a person who is passionate about your work." Tim Brand said slowly, "I have no intention of disrespecting your work. What kind of interference, from the time we were together in the Trade Commission to the present, Harold and I have not pointed fingers at your work, now that you think about it carefully, our getting along should be regarded as a pleasant cooperation."

"I am very grateful for the cooperation with the two deputy secretaries-general. I have also learned a lot from the two deputy secretaries-general." Alan Wilson agreed with the words of the two deputy secretaries-general.

"That's good." Tim Brand paused slightly and said, "Well, Alan, tell the truth, what kind of help do you want us to provide, or to promote the re-employment of German people in the British-occupied area?" , Do you have any unique views?"

"Tobacco, which is suddenly put into the market, may cause price fluctuations in the British-occupied area, which may cause a certain degree of confusion." Harold added on the side.

"And the current British-occupied area is severely damaged, and the roads and railways have not yet been fully restored. How to transport is also a difficulty." Tim Brand added immediately after singing.

All in all, the two deputy secretaries-general believe that the current British-occupied area trade committee can provide a certain degree of help in this matter, which is not too much.

"Dear two deputy secretaries-general, I am one of our people." Alan Wilson bit the word "our" very hard and expressed his position. This response made Tim Brand and Harold's eyes shine. Slowly spit out a word, "Very good."

"Restoring the market and ensuring employment in the British-occupied area is the business of the entire British-occupied area trade committee." Alan Wilson changed the subject when he said this, "Of course, we cannot deny that Sir Barron and the British-occupied area thousands of miles away Indian civil servants, great help in this matter."
