Chapter 431 The Commonwealth Lottery Idea
My great India is full of martial virtues, per capita Singh, is not a small Newfoundland administrator can guess?
Nehru had long said that India must be a great power of sound and color, and must never sink, then it would be fitting to use Pakistan as a litmus test.
For thousands of years, the expansion of the religion of peace in the subcontinent has given people all over the world the impression that Hinduism is cowardly, and this time Nehru was going to wash away that impression and make it history.
In an attempt to regain the initiative in Kashmir, India later sent the 161st Brigade, the 50th Parachute Brigade, the 19th Infantry Brigade and the 7th Tank Brigade from the Jammu region into Kashmir to participate in the war. The Indians deployed their forces in two main directions of operation, i.e., one division each in Kashmir and Jammu. Using the two places as their forward bases, the Indian army launched an all-out attack on the surrounding Pakistani forces.
The first Indo-Pakistani war, at last, arrived belatedly, but nevertheless with a firm step. In the western region of Jammu, the Indians arrived in large numbers and took over the guard of the local forces of Harry Singh in the Nocera and Tangail districts. The western region of Jammu is situated in the south-western foothills of the Pir Panjal Mountains and is mountainous with tributaries of the Chinab and Jhelum rivers.
The Indian Army, in order to defeat the Pakistani armed attack on Nocera, decided to attack one of the Pakistani armed supply bases, Asir I Khetara, in order to take the heat out of the situation. The task was carried out by a mobile tank unit code-named “Chala Force”.
“The Force Chala mobile unit launched an attack on the supply base at Asr al-Khattarah, with the tank unit suddenly firing directly at the Pakistani forces at point-blank range. The Pakistani forces panicked at the onslaught of these unstoppable ironclad monsters.
Under the heavy blow of the Indian tank fire, the Pakistani armed forces fled the local supply base, throwing down a large number of supplies as well as the corpses of those killed in action.
Recently Allen Wilson was in a heavy mood, and if Vivien Leigh and the others hadn’t left yet, they would surely have realized that Allen Wilson’s abilities had improved quite a bit.
Of course now all of this was silently borne by Pamela Mountbatten who came from the country, and in the face of this kind of love for her performance, Pamela Mountbatten was ten thousand times more satisfied, “How is it so sticky? You’re suffocating here, I know it’s not right to leave you here by yourself, but I’m not busy.”
Pamela Mountbatten, who had her arms around her fiancé’s body, apologized in a soft voice and said curtly, “You’re so good, I just couldn’t stand it.”
“I can’t stand it.” Alan Wilson took the words right out of his mouth, expressing his Newfoundland absolute fidelity and almost finding joy in being a monk, “I can’t really do it I’ll just cut it off.”
“Don’t, can you just say cut it?” Pamela Mountbatten sniffed in some alarm and hurriedly reached out her little hand to grab the handle, “I’ll take good care of it from now on, honey, I was wrong.”
Huh? Allen Wilson turned his head, his body is full of the aura of you are teaching me to do things, back Pamela Mountbatten did a deep breath, there is a shock or get through this hurdle.
“The Crown Prince has promised, and her husband will come to Newfoundland before the referendum when the time comes.” Pamela Mountbatten knew that her fiancé’s hobby was key politics, and in order to make Alan Wilson dispel the dangerous thoughts, she took the initiative to open her mouth to change the topic, mentioning the matter of Newfoundland’s referendum, and inquiring about how much of a success there was.
“Recently I’m manipulating public opinion, I can’t say it will be a sure success, but there is a certain degree of certainty.” Alan Wilson said while thinking, “The key still lies in the guidance, which is exactly the necessity of public opinion manipulation. In fact, on the basis of colonization, our country is definitely much better than the French, but on top of determination, I don’t know if it’s a problem of island thinking or something else, it’s far less determined than France to fight for it. Sometimes I wonder how much easier it would have been for me to serve even France.”
He wasn’t lying; after the end of World War II, the thinking in British politics was as if successive prime ministers had gone from one traitor to another, and a bad economic economy and a failure to maintain the colonial colonies was like losing one’s soul.
Every politician knows in his heart that the era of the British Empire is over, but he is still deceiving the voters that Great Britain is still one of the most powerful countries on earth, and he is still simply deceiving them without making any efforts to safeguard the interests of the country.
The Labor Party will follow the rules, the Conservative Party is a disgrace, it is difficult to imagine that this is the Sunset Empire tempered politicians.
“By the way, hasn’t anything interesting come out of the country?” Alan Wilson inquired as he reclined back and wrapped his arms around Pamela Mountbatten’s body.
“Does Senator Churchill firing a gun in the House of Commons count?” Pamela Mountbatten covered her mouth and snickered.
“Don’t mention the man, I have an aversion to politicians themselves, especially Tory ones. All of them have heads that are more stubborn than granite and think highly of themselves.” Alan Wilson did not hide it in the slightest, “If there’s anything our country really has to learn from the Soviet Union, it’s that politicians who make big mistakes, especially those suspected of selling out, should be held accountable. They can’t be allowed to make mistakes and say they’re sorry and be done with it.”
“Is that achievable?” Pamela Mountbatten said with an incredulous look on her face, “Isn’t it delusional?”
“Back then, the House of Commons was able to strip the House of Lords of its power bit by bit, so why can’t someone control these politicians who do things without consequences now?” Alan Wilson cocked his head and said, “Things happen for people, who says it can’t be realized one day?”
He suddenly thought of the Dragoon Sisters far away in Germany again, even casting aside the matter about the referendum.
Ever since his chance meeting with the Dragoons, he had always thought about them. In the few minutes they had met, he had sensed that there was already a deep bond between himself and the two girls that might not be torn apart.
The days in Newfoundland really did not have waves, Pamela Mountbatten stayed for a few days and already felt the days of Alan Wilson, thinking that his fiancé really suffered here and simply gave too much for the British Empire.
Alan Wilson had to have some fun for his fiancée, mentioning his thoughts on Newfoundland’s position and future development, he mentioned that he had once thought of issuing a lottery ticket.
“Why not? Isn’t everything in Newfoundland now what you say it is? It’s not like there’s a parliament here?” Pamela Mountbatten was very interested when she heard that, “Take advantage of Newfoundland’s special status and do something that you don’t have the means to do domestically, so that when you get the proceeds, won’t the credit be yours? You know that domestic lotteries are banned, and if they can be legally issued here, they will provide a great flow of money.”
As early as the sixteenth century, the British decided to issue a national lottery in order to gather the power of the people to complete the construction of public facilities.
Along with the issuance of countless, differently named lotteries, British public utilities have indeed been helped by lottery funding. But at the same time, generations of British people have also developed the habit of buying lottery tickets.
In the nineteenth century, the British government banned lotteries throughout the country on the grounds that they “fostered inertia, increased poverty, led to debauchery, undermined domestic harmony, and increased lunacy”. In 1934, the British government introduced the first lottery bill, the Gambling and Lotteries Act.
The Act was enacted, but only just, and there were still no lotteries issued in the UK. The ban on lotteries would not actually be lifted until the collapse of the Soviet Union.
This is more extreme in the UK than even the US, bearing in mind that the US had already lifted its ban on lotteries in the 1960s.
So now the problem is that both the US and the UK have banned lotteries, but gamblers are not going to disappear just because lotteries don’t exist. They naturally have their own ways of doing things, so there is no point in banning lotteries.
From Pamela Mountbatten, Alan Wilson found out the meaning of restarting the lottery, “Darling, aren’t you going to spend fifty pounds to register a bookie in Newfoundland? The great business of issuing Commonwealth lotteries is in your hands.”
“May I?” Pamela Mountbatten said with some surprise, “Shall I register a company to issue lotteries? Isn’t that a bit hasty?”
“What’s hasty about it, you also said that everything in colonial state Newfoundland is on my say-so.” Alan Wilson shrugged his shoulders, “I feel that if Newfoundland serves as the lottery center of the Commonwealth, it can play an unexpected role. Especially now that both the United States and the United Kingdom have banned lotteries, it would be easy for Newfoundland, which does this, to benefit.”
Alan Wilson modestly said that he was still quite popular in Newfoundland at the moment, every freighter loaded with lumber leaving the harbor showed that Newfoundland’s debt was decreasing at a rate visible to the naked eye, as the weather turned warmer, Newfoundland’s fishermen also started to fish, plus the plan for the tax haven was also going well.
The whole of Newfoundland is now in a state of euphoria, and with a variety of factors intertwined, the disappearance of the debt problem is something that can be realized in six months at the most.
Now that there was a direct backdoor for his fiancée from the Chief Executive, Pamela Mountbatten naturally had another company in her name, she just didn’t know, yet, what it would take to gain credibility.
“Honey, the first thing you need to do is prepare some ping pong balls.” Alan Wilson was in no-holds-barred mentoring mode, guiding Pamela Mountbatten as she continued her journey to become Britain’s richest woman.
The two discussed planning about the jackpot, what percentage to use as a public construction in Newfoundland. jackpots for progressive jackpots, whether or not to put a cap on them, when they would be officially released, and so on. It is precisely because the US and UK lotteries are illegal that Newfoundland has to grow.
Compared to Newfoundland, which is in a state of comfort and harmony, Kashmir is already at war, with the regular armies of India and Pakistan, which have replaced the role of the pacifist militants and Ali Singh’s private army at the beginning, going head-to-head.
