Chapter 1382 – A Difficult Decision
“So what’s next?” Pamela Mountbatten inquired as she looked up, still reaching up to touch the stubble on her husband’s chin, “Play a trick on Washington?”
“I don’t know how far along you are, but I have a feeling that the normal wear and tear is enough for you to get things done, according to the usual governmental process.” Allen Wilson muttered as he patted his wife’s thigh lightly, “Maybe we should take action, but nothing can be done.”
Pamela Mountbatten understood and spoke, “It won’t really take more than a few days, once it converges into a river, the squeeze is still fast. A few days down the road more like two weeks, and the Americans won’t be able to stomach it.”
“Then it’s up to you guys.” Allen Wilson suddenly inquired, “Albert is going to join the army? Is it true about that?”
“Isn’t that going to be like you, serving your country?” Pamela Mountbatten couldn’t help it, “Father also thinks it’s good to enter the army for a bit of exercise to develop good character.”
“Apparently it’s not like learning from me.” Alan Wilson frowned and hesitantly inquired, “Can’t you nip the dream in the bud as a mother?”
Learning from your father? To be honest, Allen Wilson almost didn’t tense up when he heard this sentence, reviewing in his heart if he was pretending too much, that he hadn’t allowed his own son to recognize his true colors of hypocrisy? Do you really think he can sacrifice anything for the sake of the country? Just saying, really serious?
Come to think of it, it seems that the children of ladies of equal status with his wife, although there are a few that he hasn’t seen much, but they all seem to be growing up well, it just has nothing to do with his training at all.
Never mind, it’s a minor issue after all, it’s last supper time, and everything else has to give way to this.
Just as the Fed must put out frequent messages to raise everyone’s mental expectations before they are going to raise interest rates, the Labor Cabinet, and in particular the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Callaghan, will be taking on this role over the next few days.
Warnings, stern warnings, threats, will be the mainstream of the following days, as to whether or not to really take action? The appearance of action is going to be made anyway!
Since it is the Last Supper, cowards have no business at the table, and if some bankers are scared off as a result of this, it only means that these people should not have profited.
Putting the word out tougher than once proves nothing, and what elected politician is a stranger to that? Spitting in the face is nothing more than routine.
After the war, Britain’s ongoing efforts to revive the sterling area were continually and harshly suppressed by the United States.
Britain continues to freeze foreign pound reserves, and then use the UK’s domestic exports to gradually repay these foreign debts, so that not only can pull British employment, out of the shadow of the post-war recession, but also stabilize the value of the pound, the most important thing is to maintain the existence of the sterling area, as long as there is this economic base, it is not impossible to rise again in the future.
The lifting of the freeze, then the pound area will have to defect to the dollar, not only to help the United States expand exports, strengthen the sphere of influence of the dollar area, and the pound area will be fundamentally trapped in the collapse of the earth, the situation of the end of the world.
To this day, finally, after losing eighty percent of the colonies, the United Kingdom stabilized its position, the previous over-issuance of pounds all digested, constructed not as large as the original, but more resilient British pound area.
And began to re-explore the expansion of their own sphere of influence, the first natural start from Asia, for example, in Burma, which requires a country to do Malaya as a production base of the backing, obviously as a top resource country of Australia, in this is qualified.
In order to sustainability exhaustion, sell the colony Allen Wilson of course will not regret, the only thing fledgling he looked back and felt loss, that is, when the Potsdam Conference, should be in the sale of Poland to the Soviet Union to ask for a price, even if it is to ask for a few tons of gold it? As a result, he really did not mention anything.
It may be that even if it was mentioned, the Soviet Union would have rejected it in the end, but not mentioning it was an unforgivable blunder, and every time he thought about it, Allen Wilson was nagging that the Soviet Union had taken advantage of his great advantage.
“Washington is almost a phone call a day, don’t be in a hurry, it’s coming, we’ll see strong measures soon.”
How many phone calls the Prime Minister took, Alan Wilson of course knew exactly how many, the man next to the Prime Minister was also to receive a salary, it was impossible for him to know the content of the calls, but it was easy to know how many times the calls had come in.
“I think what we should do now is to carefully map out the industries of the European countries now, including the United Kingdom, and together there is something that compares to the United States feel inadequate.”
Alan Wilson called the head of MI6 over and asked it to map out the industries of Europe and the United States now, whether the industries of Europe can be independent of the United States or not, most of the views of the later generations think that it is possible, that is, the difference is in the Internet and the US dollar, but this kind of thing is not personally investigated, it is always not reassuring.
After the head of MI6 left, Alan Wilson is still thinking about where to leave out, this era is still honestly spell industry, financial nukes just look beautiful, what is the meaning of power?
The power lies in the fact that thousands of workers, as if they were a swarm of silent black ants, suddenly swarmed out from many small streets and alleys that looked like ditches filled with mud and water and some houses on the edge of the city that looked like big garbage garbage cans, making the streets resound with the sound of footsteps, the clinking of white ironware shining under the streetlights, the sound of the dry wooden soles of many flats stepping on the ground, the noise of those who hadn’t yet had enough sleep and the sound of their feet on the rotten mud. the gurgle of feet on the mud.
Crowds of people from all walks of life filled the street, some of them densely packed on the sidewalks, some of them puffing and puffing in the center of the street, which was covered with black sewage sludge. Some swarmed chaotically in front of the factory gates, others formed a serpentine procession, and as they entered the gates, they were slowly swallowed up by the light that shot through them.
The intense, enthusiastic labor of a thousand factories begins. The low rumbling of the machines echoed in the smoky air, and the windows of those factories and the windows revealed the black bodies of the workers or a huge machine, which is the real power, finance can only be used as an alternative, the real power can only return to the essence.
Such a power can create a flood of wealth. The UK certainly does not have such a power if only the mainland is counted, and I wonder if the EEC countries together have such a power.
I don’t know why, the White House staffers always feel that today’s weather is extraordinarily gloomy, there is a feeling of a mountain rain, maybe they don’t know this adjective, but probably this is what it means.
These two years have been tough for the United States, militarily the Vietnam War has progressed a lot, repeatedly giving North Vietnam a heavy defeat, but it can not be translated into victory, even the State Department and the CIA do not think that there is any result in further fighting, only the Pentagon is left to think that it can still be in the efforts of a hand, and there is also outgoing commander of the U.S. forces in Vietnam, Admiral Westmoreland, who constantly goes around making speeches.
Raging against the government’s timidity as the root cause of the military’s inability to win on the battlefield.
There was a rising anti-war wave, as well as frequent dollar crises, and a backlash from the European allies, which for once briefly replaced the question of how the Vietnam War would end.
President Nixon’s outburst of anger caused staffers to involuntarily move away from the President’s office, whispering what had happened to make the President, who was known for his tough image, lose his temper like that?
After a while, Dr. Kissinger hurried to the White House and entered the Oval Office amidst the inquisitive eyes of the others.
He was not afraid of what Nixon would do; after all, Kissinger was a friend of the Rockefeller family, and he had been a director of the Rockefeller Brothers Foundation, which had been established by the five Rockefeller brothers.
“The British have deceived us.” Nixon could not hide the anger in his heart, he did not expect to end up waiting for this news, if the British had said long ago that they could not do anything about it is okay, but since the promise was made, and ultimately chose to stand by and do nothing about it, this is a complete deception.
“This is a difficult time. The raging U.S. debt is engulfing the United States.” Kissinger was actually reluctant to go to Britain; he felt before he went that things would not go well.
Kissinger was extremely surprised at the promise that Britain finally agreed to work for it, to go in and out with the U.S. Kissinger was extremely surprised in his heart, but just watched Nixon take it easy and didn’t say anything, and now it was obvious that things were going to go well, that the British were on the verge of running away from the situation, and that they were treating their previous promise as if it was a fart.
Because of the genetic faults of the gold exchange standard, the growth of the dollar inevitably exceeds that of gold, and maintaining a locked-in price between the dollar and gold becomes an illusion that simply cannot be sustained from a logical point of view.
The bottleneck is when the scale of the dollar’s output is greater than its own gold reserves, will automatically trigger the world with the dollar paper money to the run on the U.S. gold reserves of the crisis.
Obviously this time the dollar tsunami, more violent than the previous times, in the Vietnam War is not a result of the delay, Europe has obviously to the United States of America’s dollar overissuance patience to the limit, this time to the goal of the Federal Reserve will be run out of business.
This is any country can not do, such a large number of U.S. debt and the dollar two-pronged, Europe only the United Kingdom and Germany have this condition, the greater likelihood is that all European countries everyone has a share, and there may even be the last time on the run on the gold of France.
The U.S. doesn’t have that much gold, nor does the world, and the U.K.’s role has certainly played a negative role, if not the culprit.
“President, call the Chairman of the Federal Reserve. We can’t watch the gold that was so hard to accumulate end up being taken back by the Europeans.”
Kissinger spoke up, it may be a tough choice, but sooner or later there will come a day when the Bretton Woods system comes to an end and the dollar in fact defaults.
Arthur Burns is the current chairman of the Federal Reserve, and because of his close relationship with Nixon, he has been given the entire throne of control of the financial empire, and because of this personal relationship, he is also considered a politicized chairman who is directly beholden to Nixon himself.
“Two point seven-five billion ounces.” Learning of the current gold reserve figure, Nixon was in deep thought, now needing her to make a decision that could change the international financial order.
