British Civil Servant

Chapter 740 The Problem Is the Economy

The two sisters are fascinating. Although they each have sons who are servants of the empire, it is certainly an aspect of his softness.

But there is another aspect, that is, the Hellman family has been raised by him.

Some time after the war, Alan Wilson went to the British-occupied Ruhr area, and during that time he was nothing short of crazy. Search the ruins after the war for all possible assets.

To this end, he roped in the top civil servants throughout British India and got through to the heads of Whitehall in London. Using tobacco to obtain profits was only one aspect. He put all the industries that might leave a trail in the hands of the Bokina sisters.

Alan Wilson himself had a lot of money, but he never hesitated to help women of the same status as his wife. The Hellmann family's wealth increased like a snowball. With his help, one of the three major regional banks in Germany was controlled by the two sisters. in hands.

Some innocuous equity swaps by long-established German companies such as Bayer, Mercedes-Benz, Rheinmetall, and Krupp are considered a less conspicuous part of it. Only the special environment of post-war Germany, which was in ruins and under the control of the occupying forces, could achieve this.

If he did it now, Alan Wilson would be too tired to pee his pants, but the result would certainly be gratifying.

The so-called Hellmann family, where the two sisters belong, has become a rising family in the Federal Republic of Germany. It is no worse than any old company and has become an upstart after the war. It is not as if the original German companies are inextricably linked to the National Socialist Party. The connection is very politically correct.

The Bokina sisters are almost the richest people in Germany. Although the imperial servants regard money as dirt, they cannot ignore such a large sum of wealth.

At this time, Ellen Wilson is righteous in killing her relatives. Will the wealth that has been grasped by the two sisters eventually fly away?

You must know that his previous support for the two sisters was completely sincere, and he expected the two sisters to gain a foothold in Germany and help Britain and the United States compete for influence in Germany.

This wealth, which can make anyone tempted, is probably an important reason why the two sisters finally did not want to be spies.

After asking, Anna did not hide it. She came to Asia with a sincere attitude. She nodded and admitted, "The reason why we don't want to be spies has nothing to do with our current wealth. We must be lying."

"Oh!" Alan Wilson smiled bitterly, did I give too much? What finally defeated the two sisters’ more than ten years of communist education? Should he be happy? Then he asked, "How much money do you sisters have now? Let me be mentally prepared in the future to see the price of defeating a spy."

"That's our child's money, not our money." Anna replied coquettishly while holding the man's body, "In U.S. dollars, it's probably less than 100 million. It's not all cash, it also includes some shares."

"Okay, stop talking. It's better not to show up with the next spy. I don't have the money to deal with the next one." Alan Wilson's attitude of treating money like dirt came back again. He just had to have an understanding in his heart. With a compassionate expression, "There are still many people in poverty in the world. I'd better think about how to benefit the public."

"How about I donate the money, then you should be relieved." Anna suddenly had the idea of ​​teasing this man, and said half-truthfully.

"Just pretend I didn't hear you!" Alan Wilson stretched out his hand and scratched the pseudo-dragon's fullness, causing a moan, but he didn't grasp it all.

The elder sister of the two sisters was obviously the one who made the decision. Alan Wilson asked Anna to go back to Bonn to discuss it with Bokina. The best way at the moment was to stay the same in the face of changes, and there was no other good way. .

Anna also nodded in agreement. She knew that she was not as good as Pokina in this aspect.

She was also the first to waver in her loyalty to the Soviets, and the two sisters really should have a talk.

"I really don't want to leave you!" Anna's head arched into Alan Wilson's arms, "It's still inconvenient to come here."

"Leaving now is for future reunion." Alan Wilson touched Anna's long blond hair and asked, "Does your sister still have short hair?"

As soon as the words came out, Anna pinched her waist, and she knew that this man was still trying to kill two birds with one stone.

Alan Wilson did not avoid the pain, he really thought so, after all, his second brother was invincible.

Except for Malaya, most places in the world experience the rotation of seasons. At this time of the year, most places in the United States are also under the majesty of General Winter.

McCarthy's call back arrived. In the telegram, McCarthy expressed that it had indeed been cold in the United States recently and expressed his gratitude for Alan Wilson's idea of ​​inviting him on vacation. However, British Malaya was too far away and very inconvenient.

If he wants to take a vacation, Hawaii or Puerto Rico are good choices.

In a call back, Alan Wilson expressed regret but also expressed his blessing to McCarthy, and that was the end of the matter.

"Americans think that their country is the best. This kind of thinking is really hopeless." Alan Wilson sneered in his heart. Most people in the United States in later generations are full of ignorance about the world and think that the places controlled by the United States are the best in the world. , have neither knowledge nor interest in other countries.

In terms of the economy and population of the United States, the proportion of overseas tourists from the United States is actually lower than that of many countries. This is also a side effect of this understanding, but it is none of his business.

Whitehall also responded to Malaya's annual report and was very satisfied with the funds handed over.

In fact, considering the current economy of British Malaya, handing over 100 million pounds in revenue is considered very difficult.

The dissipation of this sense of hardship is entirely due to the low unemployment rate brought about by industrial relocation. There is also a vast land and a sparse population, which are indeed useful in some places.

For example, although Australia in later generations is a messy land, with a sparse population, Australians can easily live a high-quality life by selling minerals, while Japan, which has a small area and a large population, wants to achieve the same income. It’s much harder, let alone enjoying life.

In this era, different countries have different calculations of economic aggregates, but in a gold standard world, Alan Wilson can have a rough idea based on per capita wages.

From 1945 to the present, the economy of British Malaya has advanced by leaps and bounds. The economic scale has been close to 5% of that of the British mainland. The population of the British mainland is five times that of Malaya, and the per capita wage is also higher than that of Malaya. Five times the salary in Laiya.

This number cannot fully measure the difference between the two places, because the currency value of the Asian pound is not five times the difference between the British pound and the British pound. But it is larger, this is also to promote export products to the European market.

The same situation also exists in Japan. The value of the Japanese yen has also been depressed. The purpose of the depression is of course the same as that of Malaya, which is to promote Japan's exports. However, Japan's exports are currently mainly facing the US market.

The per capita income of a worker in Malaya is currently slightly lower than the income of a Japanese worker in Japan. However, it was on the same level, but there was no place in the surrounding area that surpassed British Malaya. Another place that surpassed Malaya was Xiangjiang.

The total economic scale of Xiangjiang is estimated to be half that of British Malaya, but how many people are there in Xiangjiang? I have to say that as China's only external channel today, this advantage is indeed too great.

It's just that the survival pressure caused by Xiangjiang being too small is greater than the survival pressure in Japan, and even its future potential is limited.

Alan Wilson thought of Zipperton's quote, stupid, the problem is the economy.

"Commissioner, I wonder if one day, the economic scale of Malaya will be close to that of Australia." Richard, the head of the administrative bureau, could see that his immediate boss was very concerned about the economy of this colony, and he was sincerely concerned.

"Australia's population is the same as that of Malaya. Don't even think about comparing the per capita salary with Australia. In total, I hope it will reach half of Australia one day. This is not easy." Alan Wilson said with a wry smile, "This There are really few countries in the world that can compare with Australia in terms of leisurely living.”

Are the top resource country allocations kidding you? Australia implemented a strong monetary policy in later generations. People who don't know it think that politicians from the peak of the British Empire are leading Australia.

Strong monetary policy is not a good thing for a country's industrial development, but Australia is exactly a top resource country. Even with a sparse population, Australia doesn’t care what kind of industry it develops. Australia’s strong monetary policy is even more confident than that of the United States.

But having said that, the UK has always adhered to a strong monetary policy, and the pound to dollar exchange rate is now 1:2.8. Only after seeing this exchange rate did I realize that the exchange rate between Asian pounds and pounds is already very conservative, and there is still a lot of room for Asian pounds to depreciate.

"Now within Asia, apart from Japan, the Philippines and Indonesia are not a concern. The environment of Xiangjiang is quite special, but the place is too small and the population is not large. We use Xiangjiang's special status to do trade with the Chinese and add The prospect of opening up the opening opened by the mainland in Europe is still very optimistic." Alan Wilson told the administrative director, "Within three years, London will completely stop allocating funds for Malaya's fleet logistics as the home port. By then, this fleet will If a single fleet can be ranked among the top three in the world, all the expenses will be borne by Malaya, so you must be mentally prepared."

"In my telegram to Whitehall, due to space limitations, some specific data were not stated clearly. I have been away from Kuala Lumpur for a long time this year and will not go back this time. You will return to London on my behalf and submit the data on various industries. To London.”

Richard was stunned for a moment and then became very excited. He expressed in front of his immediate superior that I was very reliable and very willing to go back to London for his immediate superior, "Commissioner, I promise to complete this task."

"Very good!" Alan Wilson looked into the other person's eyes and smiled, with an expression on his face that said, "You are indeed very reliable."
