Chapter 1225: Expel the foreigners and secure the interior first

For the sake of stabilizing the value of the pound, the rumor was that the Soviet Union had taken out gold at a somewhat higher figure than the real one.

Whitehall was full of talented and well-spoken people. After a logical assessment, as well as fuzzy raw price pinch, that the rumor of 300 to 400 tons is more appropriate.

This would be less likely to be debunked, and would also give confidence to the institutions holding the pound. After all, four hundred tons of gold, in any country is not small, even if it is the world’s largest gold reserves of the United States, four hundred tons of gold is close to four percent of the ratio.

For the United Kingdom, this proportion is close to eight percent, can be described as a heavenly fortune, in the financial and fiscal role is immeasurable, of course, this kind of small things do not need to report to the Prime Minister, after all, is a rumor, the government does not need to come forward to confirm the news is true or not.

At least the recently appointed Minister of Finance, Regina McDenning, was delighted with the situation, and even had a hint of wanting to put the grand blueprint into practice.

There is a saying that money is not everything, without money is nothing, two world wars destroyed the economy of Europe. No money naturally talk hard, which led to the decline of Europe.

And having money can’t be said to be completely different, but it can also solve a lot of things, but Frank expressed skepticism about the grandiose blueprints of the Minister of Finance, and for this reason, he also came over to communicate with the Secretary General of the Cabinet.

Unfortunately for Frank, the supreme authority was not in Whitehall, and was explaining to Victor, the Soviet ambassador to the United Kingdom, who was the closest, about the untruthfulness of the rumors, and why they had not been clarified, but of course with the tacit approval of the Prime Minister Aidan.

The British government could not be blamed for this, some insider, whose name cannot be divulged, felt that a range of 300 to 400 tons would be appropriate, but Britain is the free world, and the media of the free world love big news, and at first the rumors were that there were 300 to 400 tons of gold in this purchase, and the uncoronated kings felt that it was not too much for them, and then they played a game.

Certain irresponsible newspapers, on the contrary, didn’t mention the exact figure, because the government wouldn’t have published it. But it turned the gold of the Soviet Union’s food purchases into, well, one-third of the Soviet Union’s gold reserves.

This is very cunning. Who knows what the Soviet Union’s gold reserves really are? But the Soviet Union is a country with a large land area absolutely real, the world’s first land area will not lie.

This kind of report has caused the effect of a thousand people’s eyes a thousand Hamlets, the Soviet Union’s world’s first vast land, most people in this world are shocked, all kinds of key politicians under a brainstorming, that can not be.

This vague speculation, can not fool the real insiders, although the rumors are more evil, but Pamela Mountbatten attitude resolutely adopted a conservative figure, informing the United States of America’s three major grain merchants, absolutely no fake news said so much, only three hundred and fifty tons of gold.

Than the fake news on the uncapped speculation, this conservative figure is really conservative. But know the inside story of the three major grain merchants gas explosion, originally this should also have a share of them, but now can only dry watching, people have signed the contract has been shipped.

Jealousy like gangrene, gnawing at their hearts, what? Doubt the reliability of the news?

Grain merchants beg you, quickly take a few hundred tons of gold in the gold market, cheat us vulnerable people.

Alan Wilson and Mr. Victor, the esteemed gentleman and ambassador of the Soviet Union, look out over the sea, not far from where a huge ship is leaving port, naturally destined for Leningrad, which of course is still sometimes called by its old name of St. Petersburg in the UK.

The sea is ever-changing, one day at a time, rarely the same. Besides, the sea is so far removed from that seen in Malaya, that, perhaps, at the time of spring, it is often stormy; perhaps, even though it is the same sea, it is more variable, owing to the difference in climate, which has caused this part of the seashore to lose its lazy, misty, and weak sea.

“If we had known that the price of grain would rise as a result, we might not have signed the contract so early. In fact I might even have taken some responsibility for it.”

Alan Wilson was bitterly trying to win sympathy, although Britain had received two hundred and twenty tons of gold, but the Soviets had received precious grain ah, it was impossible for people to go without food, life was priceless, especially the lives of the Soviets.

As for what Africa and the Far East are naturally not among the priceless of life, everything has a price.

At the same time that Alan Wilson was talking to half the world’s leaders, the Japanese were enduring even smaller lunches, Korean women were holding their wailing babies, looking at the latest food prices in disbelief, and martial law military control was even tighter on Fraud Island.

But what the fuck does any of this matter? There are so many miserable places in the world, what does he, a British cabinet secretary, care? It was the Soviet Union, not Britain, that was going to liberate the world.

Alan Wilson has a flexible and unfathomable bottom line, and no one understands strategic certainty better than he does. Come to think of it, even if famine did break out, it wouldn’t affect Europe or America, but if the Soviets starved to the point that they went after Europe, that would not be good.

Take out the military orders of India and Arab countries, as well as the Soviet Union this time two hundred and twenty tons of gold, the British economic situation how difficult ah, difficult to the point that the cabinet secretary general do not know where the difficulty is, difficult to fall on the Chancellor of the Exchequer actually have a grand blueprint.

All this suffering the Soviet ambassador with no idea, the Soviets do not know, in order to sell a little food, to have how many colonial farmers sweating to pay, which is half of the world’s leading countries can appreciate?

Allen Wilson, with unparalleled sincerity, finally managed to fool the Soviet ambassador, and then slammed the Sukarno government in Indonesia at the Foreign Ministry, accusing the dictator of Greater Indonesianism, which would undermine regional prosperity and stability.

At a time when public opinion is focused on food gold, slamming the Sukarno regime in Indonesia may seem a bit out of place, but it was a very clear signal to get your hands dirty, and Moscow’s culture czar, if he paid attention to this one story, knew that the Cabinet Secretary, who is as good as his word, was going to keep his word.

What a great opportunity given the current situation, if not to ironically push Indonesia into the Soviet bloc. Kennedy will be happy this year, the Soviet Union has a food shortage to take care of itself, and it is not impossible for Britain to take out the Sukarno regime.

But who wants that kind of chance of winning? Some things a win is a loss and a loss is a win, as if Kennedy thought he had taken care of the three major grain merchants in the U.S. He won, but only by adding another heavyweight member to an already large opposition force.

After the Cuban Missile Crisis, Kennedy’s approval ratings were quite high, changing his previous image as a weak president. Unsurprisingly, there isn’t the slightest problem with either the midterm elections or reelection.

Only three years in power to make so many things, let you do eight years of the president, not let finally wait for the size of Roosevelt’s end of life of the world’s citizens, once again ushered in the darkest moment?

Especially the famous but not real silver bill, even have to really take out to play a role, can be called to plan the ancestral tomb of the world’s citizens, in contrast to the British side just swallowed three or four hundred tons of Soviet gold, Wall Street has never been so not taste, but there is a point of consensus of the world’s countries, that is, hustle the outside world does not first secure the inside.

How do the multitudes who think the president is very nice know about such things? The common man will only talk about the previews of the upcoming epic film Cleopatra, the three-year filming cycle and the gossip about the hero and heroine, and gush about it.

On the British side, Princess Margaret met with Turing once and opened up about how much she appreciated Turing’s talent. The pressure from the Queen’s sister as well as her mother’s queen eventually made Her Royal Highness, who was over thirty years old, realize the cruelty of the real world.

Turing, who had just been honored as the president of the Royal Interstellar Association and had made unique achievements in scientific research, would definitely not make Her Majesty particularly satisfied, but her sister’s long drawn-out battle over her feelings finally made the Queen feel tired and unwilling to push on.

Having received the Queen’s acquiescence, other than Turing’s age, there was no longer much resistance.

“Your Highness’s marriage issue really shouldn’t continue to be delayed.” Alan Wilson, who had come to visit his sister-in-law, put himself in her shoes and expressed his concern.

“Put your pants on, your words are more convincing.” Princess Margaret turned back and blankly glanced at the Cabinet Secretary, not forgetting to add, “You mustn’t forget the sacrifices I’ve made for you.”

The Cabinet Secretary wagered that he would serve the Crown with dedication for the rest of his life, and that he would be the Prime Minister of Great Britain.

He had always done so, and no one could pick out that he had always served England with all his heart. The means at certain times, though perhaps somewhat questionable, were well intentioned.

I hear there’s a famine in Southern Rhodesia? What happened to famine in that part of Africa? Isn’t that routine?

The High Commissioner for Southern Rhodesia has already telegraphed, “Not a big problem, preventable and controllable.”

Prime Minister Aidan even had some regrets that he should have held the general election only after word had gotten out about doing business with the Soviet Union.

For this reason also in the cabinet meeting, in the tone of self-punishment three cups to the Conservative ministers to express apologies, after which naturally said, this page has passed, not allowed to be mentioned again in the future.

In the diplomatic field, Alan Wilson, who is also the permanent undersecretary of the Foreign Office for the time being, continues to implement the core concept of diplomacy of pulling down France, and informs the United States through the united Five Eyes Coalition that France, a disloyal country, is secretly communicating with a certain Eastern power.

It is hoped that the Free World’s well-deserved beacon of light will stop the French move of disunity.

Reasons given include, but are not limited to, that a certain great power is anti-imperialist and anti-feudal, and that France, as a colonial power de facto occupying Algeria, should not engage in such politically incorrect diplomacy, etc. ……

What? Britain was a colonial power too? Britain didn’t have diplomatic relations with a certain great power either, and has always been loyal to the free world.
