British civil servant

Following Princess Margaret's finger, Alan Wilson, who also had a telescope hanging around his neck, also saw the shame of the crocodile enjoying the coolness. The most obvious sign is the pair of cute eyes.It is very different from its crocodile counterparts.

"Margaret, this is still dangerous. Don't attract the attention of the crocodile." Pamela Mountbatten's education led several MI[-] agents to persuade Her Royal Highness not to get too close to the fence.

"That's not true. This kind of crocodile can't grow to a size that can kill people. If it uses all its strength, it should be able to defeat a medium-sized dog." Alan Wilson didn't have anything to worry about, and of course he didn't have much say.

I just don’t know which one is stronger and weaker, the Chinese alligator and another crocodile, the shameful caiman, and whether you can cook wine to be a hero. The bay crocodile is nothing but a hero, and the Nile crocodile is nothing but a mediocrity. Today, only Kai is the hero Doors and Yangtze ears...

"The crocodile has a cruel temperament. I heard that the crocodile skin of the crocodile is very popular." Alan Wilson said in his heart, "I believe our French friends will like it. The French are good at selling very ordinary things at high prices."

In consideration of maintaining the balance of the earth, since he has saved an animal, such as the baiji dolphin, he has to clean up some animals.Salt crocodiles, the most brutal of all crocodiles, are widely distributed in Southeast Asia.

First of all, it is not something to cherish, and because of its cruel temperament, it poses a great threat to the survival of the residents of Malaya.Then in the kingdom of the fiancée, some cleaning should be carried out.

"You said there is a very dangerous crocodile in Sarawak?" Pamela Mountbatten didn't know anything about the so-called territory in name.

"It's not just your territory, it exists widely throughout Southeast Asia." Alan Wilson nodded, "There are many rivers, and residents dare not wash clothes by the river. Although I don't have data, I have heard many people in Malaya mention And, every year, many people die in the mouth of this ferocious crocodile."

The so-called crocodile tears, a very well-known proverb, refers to the state of the crocodile after predation.

Alan Wilson is not worried about the extinction of the crocodile, because as long as an animal exists in Australia, the possibility of this animal being flooded is far greater than the possibility of extinction.Salt crocodiles exist in Australia, on the northern coastline near Southeast Asia.

"If it's a threat to the safety of the local people, it's not impossible to clean it up." Pamela Mountbatten naturally didn't want to hear that the crocodile always kills people on planes. Compared with animals, he still pays more attention to human lives.

"I'll talk to Edel when the time comes to hunt and kill alligators in Sarawak and see if I can contact a French leather bag company. Maybe I can solve part of the funding problem."

Before he started to act, his wishful thinking was already clanging, and it was not that he didn't know French business partners, such as Ingrid Bergman, although he was not French, but his career developed in France.

The Kingdom of Sarawak is the largest administrative unit in later generations of Malaysia, occupying more than one-third of Malaysia's area.One-quarter of British Malaya that now incorporates the Kra Isthmus.It can be said that the place where Pamela Mountbatten took over from Charles Brooke himself is quite impressive.

As the current chief executive of British Malaya, Alan Wilson will of course help Pamela Mountbatten to build this place well. Malaysia's oil and gas resources are very sufficient.

It can be said that in terms of any resources, British Malaya is much stronger than Japan, with these natural resources as the backing.In the future competition, even if it is really because of the gap in national strength between the United Kingdom and the United States, British Malaya cannot compete with Japanese social animals, and it can still have resources to reduce the great pressure of survival.

After getting off the boat, Alan Wilson was still planning for his fiancée's territory, "The development of East Malaysia is much behind that of West Malaysia, but the small population is also an advantage. The population needs to be managed centrally and urban settlements should be established. When Commissioner Gerrard was here, Sarawak set up many Chinese settlements, and when the time comes to build a hydropower station, we can slowly talk about the rest to support electricity consumption.”

Moreover, Sarawak is so close to Brunei, there is no reason why Brunei has oil resources near it, but Sarawak does not.As long as the exploration team in Libya became famous, Alan Wilson handed over the oil and gas exploration in British Malaya to his fiancée's company.

The High Commissioner of British Malaya and the Queen of the Kingdom of Sarawak serve British Malaya. How small is this blessing?

After landing, a group of people went to Kuching, the capital of Sarawak. Alan Wilson liked the name very much. Ma do Edel of District Commissioner.

"Dear princess, Ms. Mountbatten, hello!" Edel maintained a suitable distance, expressing respect to Princess Margaret, an important member of the royal family.

"Hello!" For a moment, Princess Margaret felt that the glorious era had returned. After all, according to the man, the princess was not an important member of the royal family.

"Edel, the crocodile in Sarawak poses a serious threat to human life. It should be hunted to a certain extent." Alan Wilson was not very polite, "Crocodile skin is a good material for making handbags. Let me see if I can't contact those in Europe. On the other hand, if you find a market, on the one hand, you can eliminate the hidden dangers of the local people, and on the other hand, you can generate income to a certain extent. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.”

In fact, it was only three hours since the last conscience discovery. He, the commissioner of British Malaya, was dazzled by the bright vision of the luxury market, so conscience is elusive. Money is more practical.

"Of course there is no problem, Commissioner. You can always hear rumors of crocodiles attacking people." Edel nodded. "If the number of crocodiles can be kept within a certain range, the development difficulty will be much less."

"It would be great if we could negotiate a good purchase price." Alan Wilson nodded in approval.

This matter involves the future of Sarawak. Of course, he can't do it with others. He has to contact the president of French Woodpecker Company himself to see if he can ask President Ingrid to come in person at an appropriate time.

In the Sarawak Royal Palace, Pamela Mountbatten visited with great interest, this asset in her name.

Although she didn't intend to sit down here, Pamela Mountbatten was only interested in this identity, but it's okay to come here for a short stay once in a while.

"I want to register a Sarawak development company." Pamela Mountbatten was very satisfied holding Alan Wilson's arm.

Alan Wilson understood, and said to East Malaysia Commissioner Edel, "Edel, please help me with this matter. Pamela will not stay here for long, and she will go to Australia next week."

"No problem!" Edel readily agreed, expressing his determination to work for his immediate superior.

Not to mention the relationship established in British India, it is convenient to use, and it will still complement each other in another colony.Then Edel left the palace and went to the East Malaysia Commissioner's Office.

The rest is private time, at least Alan Wilson thinks so, but Princess Margaret's sneaky visit dispelled his initial idea.

Hearing the remarks about not adapting to the climate and wanting to straighten his bones, Alan Wilson reminded in a low voice, "You are a princess. You should pay attention to your image."

"I'm not used to the climate. You can press it for me." Princess Margaret pursed her lips and looked up at the man. "I can't ask Pamela to press it for me, can I?"

"Okay!" Alan Wilson just promised and returned immediately, "No, I can't tell if Pamela saw it."

"He's gone to the garden, give me a massage first." Princess Margaret reluctantly grabbed the man's arm and shook it vigorously.

Chapter 541 The Local Order

"Be honest!" She patted Princess Margaret on the shoulder, and the latter obediently lay down.

Alan Wilson, who was up and down, didn't have any evil intentions, but was a little impatient with serving the princess.

While Princess Margaret's is arguably beautiful, for him it was a nuisance.It's definitely not like treating those actresses the same way, the consequences of not taking it seriously are obvious.

"As a contemporary princess, I believe that there are many noble children who like you in their hearts. By the way, you are also 20 years old." When dealing with princesses who do not play cards according to common sense, he decided to uphold the principle of not offending as much as possible and giving proper life guidance .

Role models are readily available, and today's Crown Prince Elizabeth is a good one to emulate.In fact, when Crown Prince Elizabeth ascended the throne, the skeleton of the British Empire was still there. To celebrate the Queen's ascension, the United Kingdom also united with the Commonwealth Navy to assemble the [-] British Empire Ship Parade, including nine aircraft carriers.

But in the Suez Canal War three years later, Britain's tiger skin was ripped off.During Queen Elizabeth's term of office, the British Empire was constantly collapsing. To replace it with China, it should correspond to the period of Empress Dowager Cixi.

"Today's monarchy is not the mainstream, and the public's perception of the royal family is different. So you can't be too egotistical, and you should bear the responsibility of the empire like the crown prince."

"My sister lived a very hard life like that. In fact, Pamela's life is good. She has a man who solves all her problems." Princess Margaret closed her eyes slightly, but her face turned crimson.

"Well, you will find them too. There are still many gentlemen of the same age. But you can't find a married man! If you do this, the Anglican Church will make trouble for you, and even the crown prince will have to bow to their pressure." Alan Wilson took a deep breath, exerted force with his hands, and made a crisp sound on the spine of his love brain, and then sighed, "Okay, Pamela will be back soon."

Alan Wilson, who was looking for a place to wash his hands, didn't run away as if he had done something wrong, so he found a chair and sat down.Chatting with the princess one after another, as for people who want to lie down, just lie down.

"I think the palace is not bad, Margaret, what's the matter with you?" Pamela Mountbatten entered happily, and saw Princess Margaret lying on the bed.

"She said she was tired!" Alan Wilson shrugged, without any explanation, it was up to Pamela Mountbatten to judge.

"Get up, have you forgotten the etiquette of the royal family?" Pamela Mountbatten immediately went to pull Princess Margaret up, and complained to Alan Wilson, "Why don't you care?"

"How do I manage it? I am the local chief executive, but I don't seem to have the power to control members of the royal family." Alan Wilson, who looked at you with ease, twitched the corners of his mouth and said, "I can only guide, if the princess doesn't listen, I will There is no way."

"You always make sense." Pamela Mountbatten first took a step back and turned to talk about her views on Sarawak.

As Alan Wilson guessed, Pamela Mountbatten just regarded it as a place for a British winter vacation.Even if he got the throne of the Kingdom of Sarawak, he would not come here to live permanently.

But it doesn't mean that she doesn't care about this place. After all, it is a nominal territory, and the necessary construction is of course necessary.

And expressed her firm support for electrification, if her fiancé needs it, she is willing to solve part of the funding problem.

Allen Wilson laughed outright when he heard it, "I seem to feel that you have a little bit of responsibility as a ruler. Do I want to say, yes, queen at this time?"

"Don't always laugh at me. I don't understand these things. I just want a noble title and a woman who loves vanity." Pamela Mountbatten was a little embarrassed, with a hint of anger in her tone, she reached out and grabbed Alan Wilson's itch.

Why!Princess Margaret, who watched this scene, sighed insignificantly, and the advice just now was thrown into the sky.

"Pamela, please stay here for a few more days." Two days later, Princess Margaret was at Kuala Lumpur Airport, insinuating that this place is good, and she suggested that she could go around here curiously.

"Stop making trouble, the facilities in Australia are better. Alan doesn't have time to accompany us around." Pamela Mountbatten grabbed Princess Margaret's hand and walked towards the boarding aisle without looking back, " He is now planning the development of Malaya, and this is all to take time to receive us, and I can't be too capricious."

Alan Wilson did not come to see him off this time, and is working on a plan for the electrification of Malaya.

He even wondered whether to follow the example of Japan and isolate two sets of standards. At that time, when purchasing electrical equipment in the Osaka area, they bought products from General Electric Company of the United States. The most popular products are the products of the German General Electric Company. The products manufactured by the German standard are all 60Hz. After development, these areas radiate to the surrounding area, naturally forming two power grids with different frequencies.

But after thinking about it for a while, I feel that it is completely superfluous, not to mention more investment, and it is not necessary at all.The two parts of British Malaya are already separated by the sea, so there is no need to study such futile work in detail.

Just copy the European standard. When the electrification plan was being drawn up, Boris, who had traveled halfway around the world, finally arrived at the Administrative Office.

There were also some financial personnel and security personnel from Newfoundland who accompanied them. Alan Wilson immediately entertained these Newfoundland guests. Boris directed the security personnel to lift up the boxes full of pounds, panting, "Alan Wilson Commissioner Lun, we sold all your stocks except steel stocks, then went to London to convert them into British pounds, and then escorted them here, a total of 500 million pounds."

"Thank you very much for your help this time!" Alan Wilson didn't shy away, opened it directly in front of these Newfoundland people, looked at the bill that could buy ten Sarawak banknotes, and sighed, "It's really hard work." , it doesn’t sound like an easy journey.”

This money is naturally his own, and now he has to invest in the construction of British Malaya, to see where the investment is not enough, so that he can make up for it at critical moments.

Seeing these sterling pounds, he couldn't help but sigh. After two years of working in British India without sleep and food, there was only this little money left besides gold. You are all managing the funds, which is good and more reassuring."

Boris nodded and talked about the changes in Newfoundland in the past two years. Compared with the population of Newfoundland, the explosive growth of per capita wealth is visible to everyone.

It is hard to imagine that a place with tens of millions of dollars in debt three years ago can live such a comfortable life in such a short period of time.What's more, the Newfoundland fishing grounds are still there. Many Newfoundland fishermen are very grateful. The last term was not long, but Alan Wilson pointed out the direction for the Newfoundlanders.

"Commissioner Allen, are you managing this colony now? It seems to be a bigger problem than Newfoundland at the beginning." Boris asked curiously, "So you want to invest some capital to help the development?"

"With a population of 1000 million, the difficulty is naturally several levels higher. Here in Malaya, to get rid of the current life, we must not follow the path of Newfoundland and develop the handicraft industry honestly." Alan Wilson shrugged, "Newfoundland's The shortcut is limited to a specific environment, and the population of Newfoundland is really small. Otherwise, it would be really difficult."

While Allen Wilson was discussing the issue with the guests from Newfoundland, General Mountbatten, who was promoted to the Fourth Sea Lord half a world away, was frantically calculating the funds needed to make up for the logistics gap.

It was his arrival that brought the position of Fourth Sea Lord to a level never before achieved.His work ethic and energy burst forth, and new ideas and initiatives continued to emerge.

Mountbatten, who stubbornly moved towards the First Sea Lord, first took over from the Third Sea Lord the power to distribute weapons and ammunition to the fleets; again, he obtained the power to formulate all administrative plans for the Royal Navy.

Mountbatten is also ready to do his extra work, not only because he likes to be under pressure, but also because he very much hopes that the entire Royal Navy, the military machine that has devoted his affection, can operate according to his intentions, Make others think that he is the only indispensable person in the Navy.

For a person like Mountbatten, it doesn't really matter which Sea Lord he is. It all depends on what he wants to do. If he can, he can also do the job of the First Sea Lord.

In fact, for the British Dragon Aotian, this is a basic operation. After receiving a telegram from his daughter Pamela Mountbatten, General Mountbatten, who deeply felt that the post-war financial support was limited, contacted Alan Wilson in Kuala Lumpur. .Ask about the cost of some military supplies.

After all, this is a matter involving 15 Royal Navy reserve supplies. Saving money is important, but quality must also be guaranteed.

Soon a telegram was received from British Malaya, in which Alan Wilson stated that he could personally supervise the quality of this batch of products, and offered an offer that was only one-third of the local price.

Although the telegram was full of confidence, in fact, Allen Wilson had just formulated the textile industry plan for Malaya.The textile industry is mainly composed of four sectors, namely basic textiles, garment manufacturing, textile products and accessories.Among them, the spinning and weaving industries account for a relatively low proportion, and the development of the printing and dyeing and garment industries is relatively solid.

In any place, the textile industry is the most basic industrial entry industry, and of course there are textile factories in British Malaya.It's just that it's not systematic.

But General Mountbatten didn't know it. After calculating the shipping cost, he made an order for all logistics materials except military uniforms and sent them to Kuala Lumpur.Some are not in line with traditional practices, but there is nothing to say about family matters.

Chapter 542 Industrial Development Plan

Textiles, sugar, rubber, tin mines, palm oil, backup industries as well as oil, wood, steel, and plastics. After a little inventory in British Malaya, Alan Wilson found that the basic conditions are still good.

If these industries are supported, in Southeast Asia, where there are no tigers in the mountains, it will be easy to become the king.

Of course, Malaysia in later generations will only stop at this stage.In fact, if there is no Singapore, Malaysia can be regarded as a beacon in Southeast Asia.

However, the level of Malaysia in later generations is not enough for Allen Wilson. The starting time is almost at the same time as Japan, and earlier than South Korea. It is impossible to complete the historical mission. The bottom line is that it cannot beat Japan but must be better than South Korea. In fact, Allen Wilson also wants to suppress Japan per capita.

After all, Japan has nothing to do with itself, and there are not so many relatively favorable conditions. Apart from the fact that the number of social animals far exceeds the current population of British Malaya, Japan has no advantage.Does Japan have oil resources?Is there a rubber industry?Is there a palm oil industry?Nothing, not even food.

At least before the Plaza Accord, it is necessary to fight back and forth with Japan to be worthy of the current starting time.

Why say before the Plaza Accord, it is because Japan after the Plaza Accord is no longer normal.From 1980 to [-], Japan's per capita output rose from [-] to [-] US dollars.

1990 was a glorious period for Japan, that is when the Plaza Accord appeared.After the Plaza Accord, the per capita figure in Japan changed from [-] in [-] to [-] in [-].Five years later, in [-], it became [-] per capita.

If British Malaya and Japan compete on the same route, when the yen appreciates, if there is no change in British Malaya, Japan can be cut off directly.

Even in the 21st century, Japanese products are still incomparable with European countries in terms of high-end.

Take Japan's best auto industry as an example. Although Nissan sells more cars globally than German cars, Toyota's market value is more than twice that of Volkswagen.

But even in Japan, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Audi surpass Nissan's high-end brands.

Not to mention that in other parts of the world, German cars have crushed Nissan cars from most countries in the field of high-end cars.There is no Japanese mouthpiece, but German high-end cars in China beat Nissan cars, and high-end cars in any country are hanged.

Even the best automobile industry in Japan is like this, and other industries cannot compete with European and American companies.It is nothing more than relying on cheap and high volume to support it. Even in the 21st century, Japan still retains many industries that are not technically content.

The main reason is the failure to hit the high end, and the population of Japan is twice as large as that of the average country.The two complement each other, and the road to industrial upgrading is blocked by Europe and the United States, so many low-end industries must be maintained to create jobs.

Of course, Asian countries don’t know Japan’s reality, because the standard of living is too far apart, and a glance is full of filters. Only by touching the road that Japan has traveled can you get a glimpse of the leopard.

The five industries of textile, sugar, rubber, tin ore, and palm oil can be achieved by relying on Malaya’s objective resources and its own conditions. The latter four oil mining and timber can also be achieved by relying on Malaya itself. , As for steel and plastic, external support is needed.

The steel industry definitely needs the support of Australian iron ore, and plastics need the oil assets that have not been discovered in British Malaya itself, as well as the support provided by the vicinity of the Persian Gulf, which is currently still under British control.

Finally, one month after arriving in Kuala Lumpur, Alan Wilson officially presented the development plans of the seven industries of textiles, sugar refining, rubber, tin mining, palm oil, oil exploration and timber mining, as well as the electrification plan, and sent a report to London Pending approval.

After sending the telegram, Alan Wilson went to the textile factory in British Malaya to discuss the completion of the Royal Navy's order.

In London, Mountbatten is still in the capacity of the Fourth Sea Lord, dictating the entire Royal Navy.

Of course, most of the time, Mountbatten still cared about his job, that is, logistics and financial expenses.

The life of the Royal Navy is not easy. The military budget is focused on the construction of the Air Force. Although I have recently heard about the discussion of the Trinity, General Mountbatten also expressed support, but many projects of the Air Force are being developed, and the financial support cannot be cut off at this time. Kill the project.

Therefore, although the Trinity has received attention, the investment of the Air Force cannot be changed in the short term.

Mountbatten has a son-in-law who uses the telegram as a telephone, and the telegram travels halfway across the world. After Alan Wilson learned about Mountbatten's troubles, he put forward an idea in the telegram that part of the Royal Navy's fleet could be anchored in the British Maldives. Come to Asia to save money.

This is a very novel idea. Even when British India was still there, Britain did not set up a large amount of logistics in British India. Mountbatten did not immediately agree, but asked how much logistics expenses could be saved on the Pacific Fleet. .

"This requires me to investigate how many Japanese prisoners of war have done logistics work for the United Fleet."

After this reply, Alan Wilson sent the telegram three days later. The first half of the content was urging the local factory to complete the navy's order, and the second half was to investigate the Southern Army and how many people had done logistical work for the United Fleet. prisoners of war.

Allen Wilson really thinks this matter is very important. Although the Japanese Southern Army is an army, it is impossible for this elite force to fly to Southeast Asia to fight. Of course, the Southern Army also has departments related to the Japanese Navy. These departments also support the joint The fleet fought in the ocean. After the war, these prisoners of war were naturally counted among the prisoners of the Southern Army.

For decades, soldiers of the Japanese Army and Navy were finally treated equally in prisoner-of-war camps.

But now this equal treatment is over, and the army red deer only has the role of free labor for British Malaya.The [-] prisoners of war who had worked in naval logistics were not taken out of the prisoner-of-war camp, but were detained in a special place.
