Chapter 213 Starting from Ceylon

This private assurance was confirmed, which also caused a burst of applause in the Government House. The Secretary of State for Indian Affairs, Perthick Lawrence, could finally complete his duties and return to London with the Secretary of the Navy and the Secretary of Commerce.

Sir Barron's applause is absolutely sincere, and there is nothing more joyful than the departure of his immediate boss.

The happy life of civil servants in British India was based on the absence of ministers.

Next, the cabinet mission will say that it has fully met with all parties in British India and is now returning to London with the opinions of these parties.

However, despite his short-term happiness, Sir Barron also felt sad. Alan Wilson saw this and asked if something went wrong.

"Alan, although this is a good thing, it also proves that our good days are not long." Sir Barron said with a nostalgic look, "Maybe there is no place like British India that can accommodate ten people.

There are thousands of civil servants working for the country.”

"Uh!" Alan Wilson didn't know this interface. He had to agree with Sir Barron's view. Apart from British India, there really was no such place. It was nothing more than a series of mergers of British Africa.

"Alan, you know very well that government departments must have some way of measuring their achievements. British companies measure their achievements by their profits, or, more accurately, they measure their failures by their losses. We have no profits

, and there is no loss, our achievements are measured by the number of employees and budget."

The budget is also rich, but there is no money in the country, so we can only think of solutions from the colonies. Alan Wilson can only hope that the Japanese prisoners of war in Malaya can show their subjective initiative and build decent hardware facilities first.

With these hardware facilities, are you still worried about not having enough people?

Although the total population of British Malaya is now only about five million, there is a shortage of people between China in the north and Indonesia in the south. If the control is slightly relaxed, a large number of immigrants will flow in.

There is really nothing we can do about the budget. Now the United States is indeed strong, and it has been confirmed through the Braston Woods system.

But the existence of the Braston Woods system does not mean that the US dollar cannot compete. The US dollar has this status. In the final analysis, it has this value only because it is bound to gold. In other words, the Braston Woods system is also based on the value of gold.

This is not the same thing as petrodollars. What other currencies exchange for dollars is gold, not paper money.

In the Breston system, if an American travels to other countries, he also needs to exchange the currencies of other countries. If he goes to the UK, he will exchange for pounds, if he goes to France, he will exchange for francs, and if he goes to Germany, he will exchange for marks.

In the Braston Woods system, the United States also has foreign exchange reserves, and the proportion is much larger than the symbolic ratio after the emergence of petrodollars. The currencies of European countries all have monetary value.

Because these countries also use gold as currency and credit, they can also be exchanged for gold at any time.

The Braston Woods system established the U.S. dollar's status as a world currency, but it also in turn checked and balanced the U.S. dollar.

What really makes the currencies of other countries unable to compete with the US dollar is that the emergence of the petrodollar has completely turned the US dollar into a harvesting tool, constantly shearing sheep around the world. But that was already in the 1970s!

It also depends on whether the British Empire can be restored. If not, it will be nonsense. If it can still retain a good strength, who says that the British Empire cannot teach its traitors a lesson?

Alan Wilson didn't know it yet, but his mother-in-law's family was already strolling through the British-occupied areas of Germany, following the plan he gave to Pamela Mountbatten to buy bargains on German companies during the war.

If Assistant Allen knew about it, he might be anxious to prevent the two dragoons from meeting his mother-in-law and his family.

But now he has a serious look on his face, and all the civil servants in the Governor's Palace are lined up. They look serious on the outside but are happy in their hearts to send off the cabinet delegation to leave New Delhi and return to the mainland. That is where ministers should stay.

When the three cabinet ministers left the Governor's Mansion, everyone dispersed in a rush and began to work on their own affairs. It was obvious that the tea was cold after people left. However, the ministers should have nothing to complain about. The political achievements have been given to them. There was a large inflow of funds.

, Prime Minister Attlee will not blame them.

Now, everyone can put their hearts back in their stomachs and get down to business. The first business is the announcement of the establishment of the British-Indian Film Actors Association.

The report pointed out that Indian film is still in its infancy and there are still many things to learn from international advanced experience. Therefore, under the democratic principles of openness, fairness and justice, British actor Vivien Leigh was chosen as the honorary president of the British-Indian Screen Actors Guild.

In a short period of time, there will be no president, and six vice-presidents will be set up to handle the affairs of the association. However, it must be checked by the commissioner appointed by the Governor-General, namely Alan Wilson himself, to prevent actors with dangerous ideas from getting involved.

As the commissioner of the Screen Actors Guild in Britain, no one is competing with Alan Wilson for this position. After all, the oil and water are very limited. The current civil servants in British India have no time to think about nonsense love stories. They all want to make money.

Moreover, civil servants do not need to be famous. Unlike ministers, the lower the sense of presence of civil servants, the better. This is a common rule around the world. Becoming a commissioner of this non-governmental association may increase exposure, which should be avoided at all costs.

Vivien Leigh, who was designing the character of the Indian daughter in Chennai, confirmed the news from Alyssa, and her heart dropped. She sacrificed her body just to get this result, but it is not a loss. That young man Allen is quite good.

Energetic.

"Miss Vivian, you will be asked to participate in the filming of a documentary some time later. Maybe you can't leave India yet." Alyssa looked at the absent-minded Vivien Leigh and said, "The film is supported by the Viceroyalty of India and will establish your reputation among people all over the world.

The glorious image in front of us was specially explained by the Assistant Commissioner."

"I'm ready." Vivien Leigh raised her head slightly, indicating that she was waiting for that day to arrive.

Whether she can transform from a famous actor to a famous female figure depends on this time. This is also the reason why Vivien Leigh traveled across the ocean to British India. In order to realize this dream, she even opened her eyes to a boy.

legs.

Another client is dealing with the Clean India Campaign, which the Minister of Indian Affairs is most concerned about. "Counting the time, the Minister should have arrived at the Arabian Sea. We can also consider handling matters that judicial officials are very concerned about. Now everyone is

I am gearing up, eager to try, and want to bring fairness and justice to the world."

Chief Justice Clark of the Supreme Court of British India came to the Government House with a compassionate expression, but had to put an end to the evil in the world, and talked to Lord Barron about the importance of a clear legal system.

"Ask Alan to come here." Sir Barron picked up the phone and ordered the secretary in the communication room on the other side of the phone.

After a while, Alan Wilson came to Sir Barron's office and greeted Chief Judge Clark. He already had a premonition of what would happen next.

Clark quickly confirmed Alan Wilson's hunch. Now that the ministers have left, everyone should do something serious, such as fulfilling their previous promises and allowing judicial officials to join the Last Supper.

"If you act rashly, Kenya will cause a certain backlash." Seeing Clark's slightly changed expression, Alan Wilson immediately changed the topic and said, "Judge Clark, I just want to increase the success rate. I thought of a place where it can be more logical.

They can shirk our responsibilities and deflect conflicts."

"Where?" Clark asked patiently, thinking that these despicable administrative officials had changed their minds and were going to leave the judicial officials aside and eat alone.

"In British Ceylon where Commissioner MacLean is located, 70% of the population of British Ceylon is Buddhist. This will not offend the majority of Hindus. The matter is completely within control. Once the dirty facts of the Hindu temple

If it is exposed and causes controversy, we will take advantage of the situation and take action in British India, so that even the Congress Party cannot openly cause trouble for us. In this way, we not only safeguard justice, but also avoid trouble."

"The most important thing is that the risks all belong to British Ceylon. Even if the Indians want to unleash evil, there is nothing we can do about it." Sir Barron added, "If there is any hostility towards Ceylon, then

Great, Ceylon needs the protection of the British Empire. The location of British Ceylon can be regarded as an excellent location to monitor the entire Indian Ocean.”

Clark thought for a moment and nodded, "But hurry up, judicial officials can't wait to help bring justice."

"There's no problem with that. I'll send a telegram to MacLean right away." Alan Wilson nodded happily.

At this time, it is indispensable to make use of the Cambridge Five, these idealists with a sense of justice. It is not that these people cannot coexist, it all depends on how they are used.

For example, taking this incident as an example, several people in the Governor-General's Office of India knew that this was a movement to support justice and let judicial officials make money. As for whether it can change the social atmosphere in India, no one cares about such a trivial matter.

But it was different for British Ceylon, and even more different for Donald Maclean, a man who believed that social justice must be corrected and who all defected to the Soviet Union. If he knew that such a thing happened in an Indian temple, no one would do anything.

have no idea.

Whether he is a true idealist or a fake idealist depends on how Donald MacLean, the commissioner of British Ceylon, dealt with the saints in the temple.

While sending a telegram to British Ceylon, Vivien Leigh, who had successfully progressed, canceled her trip and returned to New Delhi to take on a new mission from Alan Wilson.
