Chapter 279: The Spider’s Trail
Originally it was just a joke, but after attracting Fei Wenli to open her mouth to defend herself, Hedy Lamarr and the others smelled an indescribable flavor, but when they looked at Fei Wenli, the latter was wearing the expression that as long as I’m not embarrassed myself, the embarrassment is someone else’s, and a group of movie queens couldn’t make sense of it either.
Suspicion is not dispelled, everyone in this room is an actor, but also very famous actors, will not see anything from the surface, all unspoken did not mention this matter.
Once the seed of suspicion is planted, no matter what happens, it only increases that suspicion. Even the red couch in the upstairs bedroom now made Joan Crawford wonder if the habit over in Hollywood had spread to British India.
“Vivian, didn’t you get a good night’s rest last night?” Ingrid Bergman, on the other hand, shushed Vivienne, we all got off the plane together, how come Vivienne seemed like she hadn’t woken up from sleep, but her complexion looked okay, which was very contradictory.
“I don’t adapt very well, it’s just the first few days in a new place.” Movie queen to movie queen, just hard acting, Vivien Leigh knows that what she just said has aroused suspicion, and also knows that there may be people who already suspect her now, but pretends to know nothing about it.
The group warming is a fact, does not mean that the group warming is really good girlfriends, what no faction is strange, a group of internal conflicts are very normal, but like Joan Crawford, Bette Davis, it is not normal.
No matter what happens, can not stop the hard-working imperial civil servants, now the British Empire is going downhill, at this time someone should step on the gas.
Alan Wilson is editing the Chinese ethnic group history textbook at the same time, but also did not forget to inform the NCP by telegraph, about the British Burma expulsion of Rohingya communication results, the result is of course a penalty of three glasses of wine on this.
“What Cambridge General History is just a figure of fun, really do things still have to Oxford Oriental College.” Allen Wilson writing, the workload is huge, the key is that New Delhi where there is a Chinese assistant for him to use?
No one knows Chinese characters, all the manuscript preparation has to be his own, the glorious assistant commissioner of British India, now feel that he is living a stink of code words, fortunately, so far there is no card text.
Half an hour later, the Vivien Leigh, as well as the Hollywood actress itinerary formulation, sent to Sir Barron’s office.
At the same time reported on the progress of the history textbook, which did not take much time, full of Chinese characters of the paper to Sir Barron in front of a worship, British India Commissioner immediately concluded that the Oriental Institute of high students absolutely genuine, give Alan Wilson encouragement, “this matter will be given to you to take full responsibility.”
Waiting for Allen Wilson with make him dizzy manuscript left, only a long breath. Used to reading letters in this hieroglyphics, very difficult for him.
An hour later, Allen Wilson reappeared at Vivien Leigh’s apartment with a box of brand new rupees. Not surprisingly, all of them were still there.
Not only were they all there, but some of them even found windfalls, with Hedy Lamarr finding short male hair in the bathroom shower and Joan Crawford finding a pair of men’s slippers under the couch.
The chain of evidence is patched up at an alarming rate, except that everyone is working individually, keeping it from Vivien Leigh while all think they are the smartest only, and hiding it from each other from the others.
Although the value of the rupee and the value of the dollar can not be equated, but a box of brand new banknotes set up, but also very impactful, this is Alan Wilson’s own share, he paid too much for the British Empire, and even at the expense of concessions on the exchange rate, to bear the loss of the British Empire should not have.
“Allen, with this kind of exchange rate, the governor’s office will not find you trouble, right?” After listening to Alan Wilson’s long speech from the pound to the rupee to the dollar, supplemented by the real purchasing power, Fei Wenli opened her mouth to relieve herself, and after a pause added, “You can’t let the British Empire bear the loss.”
“The value of the rupee has fallen because of the drought. I can’t let the guests suffer either, and overall, this exchange remains very fair.” Alan Wilson took a stack of rupees out of the case and smelled them, the new notes smelled really good.
Hedy Lamarr’s gaze drifted vaguely back and forth between the two, Vivien Leigh and Allen Wilson, trying to pick up on something, and it lingered for a long moment on Allen Wilson’s head, comparing the length and color of the hair to that found in the bathroom.
Another skeptical gaze belonged to Joan Crawford, and the area of comparison was the shoe size, obviously both of them to varying degrees.
Poor Tom, being played for a fool. Allen Wilson, who is still ignorant of everything, still upholds the consistent principle that with money women will still have it if they don’t have it, and without money, even if they have it now, sooner or later they will not have it.
“Allen, it was you who suggested Vivian, to increase her influence through bundling, right?” Hedy Lamarr spoke first, and began to test the man, if he was the man behind the Indian Goddess.
“Oh, no mistake.” Alan Wilson was slightly surprised, but immediately still admitted frankly, “I also just made a suggestion off the top of my head, and I don’t know how effective it will be. But the public opinion should be very favorable, can we keep the heat going, anyway, there shouldn’t be a problem with the number of you guys. In the media, as long as any of your cast members are covered and the other members are mentioned once, it’s considered a great success.”
“That’s right!” A moving smile appeared on Hedy Lamarr’s face, “I can’t see that you’ve got quite a head on your shoulders, it’s hard to imagine that this kind of idea would come from a man who’s only just over twenty years old.”
“This is all nothing, you guys are Ms. Feiwenli’s friends, that means my friends.” Alan Wilson made a very good-natured appearance, expressing his friendliness towards the so-called big names in front of him.
Ms. Vivien Lei? As soon as Vivien Lei heard Allen Wilson’s name, a hint of displeasure appeared between her eyebrows, and the typical reaction of Mrs. Cow appeared, which was detected by Hedy Lamarr, who already had seven or eight points in her heart.
Alan Wilson is still talking about some of the taboos of British India, especially the preoccupations of Hindus and Pacifists, and I hope that these Americans will pay attention to it and not lead to unnecessary trouble.
The caste system of Indian society has built an insurmountable chasm between them.
Coupled with the fact that there is a cycle of birth and death in life, the rulers use these prescriptive qualities of their ancestors as a form of mind control to maintain inequality in society, and to persuade and encourage the poor and the needy to listen to their destiny, and that only by patience can they enjoy a good fate in the cycle of reincarnation.
The Peace Cults, on the other hand, condemn this system. They argued that Pacifism embodied an unrivaled brotherhood among the laity. The vast majority of the Protestants who converted to the religion of peace came from the untouchables, or untouchables, who were originally Hindu.
Upon joining the religion, they were rapidly uplifted and freed from the accusations and abuses that the ungodly had suffered in the past.
Then there was economic inequality. In all parts of the country, the Hindus mastered almost the entire usury industry. In the Koran, it is strictly forbidden for the religious to engage in the usury trade.
“This is the telephone number of the Viceroy’s Office, so take a note of it, and say one more thing, there is no telephone network throughout all British India, the cities have only a municipal telephone network at present.” Allen Wilson left his contact information while putting away the dollars without a trace.
“What is Mr. Allen’s residential phone number, is it convenient to stay?” Joan Crawford smiled and opened her mouth to inquire, “This is not an excessive request, is it?”
“Not excessive.” Clutching dollars in his hand, Allen Terrace was in a good mood, in the middle of a very good talking state.
Allen Wilson’s favorite including but not limited to the dollar, the pound franc is also possible, recently France’s meat and food supply on the front line in South Vietnam is tight, British India generously exported a batch of beef.
There was a drought in British India, and many people starved to death it was true, but British India also had special national conditions, India had two point two hundred million head of cattle, an average of less than two people a cow, this number is the highest in the world, equivalent to five times the population of France.
Of these two hundred million head of livestock, forty million produce less than one kilogram of milk per day, and the other forty to fifty million are used for dragging vehicles and plowing.
Of the remaining one hundred million head of cattle, some produce no drops of milk, some are senile and useless and spend their days lazily roaming the countryside and towns, and even though most of them graze, there are fodder-eating herds that gobble up the equivalent of the rations of ten million Indians a day.
So that the outbreak of famine in British India, but also the Indians themselves, people can not eat food still loudly appealed for the protection of cattle, this reason can not be blamed on the Viceroyalty.
There is this foundation in, to carry out targeted deployment, the cattle in the area of the peace teachings have seen an alarming decline. Became part of the meals supplied to the troops returning to Asia, the taste may be a little worse, but it’s still beef, nothing to be picky about.
Even because of the two wings of the program, in Germany appeared signs of famine, the Governor General’s Office also supplied a large number of Germany’s beef, rich and generous as if the U.S. Empire, the U.S. Empire is only to support the food, my British Empire to give but beef.
This is enough to prove that my Great Britain invincible ah ……
Today’s time management work appeared unexpected difficulties, holding binoculars Allen Wilson was slow to receive the signal, until the middle of the night to find an opportunity.
“How could you leave the phone in your own apartment with someone else.” Vivienne’s voice carried a note of complaint, “Is it that you think they’re pretty, let me tell you a few of them are quite a bit older than me, they’re just young in appearance.”
“Look at what you’re saying, it’s not all for your sake.” Alan Wilson face close to the eyes of Fei Wenli, took the initiative to kiss a mouth, “estimate tomorrow, those who go to Mysore’s Americans will be back, may also want to find me, you see how busy I am.”
