Chapter 781 – Return to Malaya
“I’m worried that Xiangjiang is not safe, this is very worrying.” Vivienne said with a worried look on her face, “With this current situation, maybe one day Xiangjiang will not be in the hands of Britain.”
“If you mean a hundred years, then it will definitely be gone in a hundred years. Xiangjiang is a product of the Lend-Lease treaty, which has a term, and the danger is not great until the term is over. It would be a great achievement for David to take care of the civil service in Xiangjiang if he went to school there.” Alan Wilson replied with a solemn face, “I know where your concern lies, but if you trust me, there’s no problem.”
“Of course I trust you.” Fei Wen Li burrowed into Alan Wilson’s arms, “I’m just afraid that I won’t receive the best education.”
“The aristocrats in the country still have a great deal of complacency right now, it’s not a good group of people, if you go to an aristocratic school, you have to take out a bigger family and financial power than them, your financial power is enough, but your family is still a little bit worse.”
Alan Wilson is truthful, aristocrats evolve to be approachable it takes time, it is not yet the time to lower your head to be a man in the latter days, now the aristocracy in Britain stinks of preaching there are still a lot of things to say.
As for going to school in the United States, Alan Wilson will never agree, he is afraid that because of the son with Fei Wenli, later will be found by the Americans, and hold. Outside of the mainland, the other countries in Europe is also an option, but after thinking about it, Xiangjiang is still more reliable than these European countries.
Vivien Lei has gone Greta Garbo’s old way, since Streetcar Named Desire won a second Oscar, has been in a de facto hiatus, just not yet announced. The future of the Fei Wenli will only be in the film and television industry behind the scenes activities, focus on husband and mothering, it can be said, how to educate the son is still more important.
When asked about the development of Hong Kong, Alan Wilson laughed bitterly, “In terms of the location of Hong Kong, even if I am the commissioner of Malaya for twenty years, I will not necessarily be able to let the people of Malaya to catch up with the income of the people of Hong Kong. That is the near-exclusive outlet of a market of hundreds of millions of people, and envy cannot be envied.”
And in the allocation of Asian colonies, he had long discussed with Whitehall, British Malaya as an industrial base, and Hong Kong as a financial center, which of these two is easier to make money, is a person knows.
But each has its own role is also necessary, it is best not to put eggs in a basket. If Malaya has everything, it is not reassuring, the combination of flawed development, more reassuring.
The two had already agreed on the education of the next generation, and Kokubo was still finally convinced by the Imperial Commissioner.
The reasoning was such that Alan Wilson felt that he could give more care to his children in a place like Xiangjiang. Of course it would be possible in mainland Britain, but there are so many monks in the mainland, and so many more powerful people than him, that it would be better to nurture it in Xiangjiang.
The next day there was good news from North Vietnam that ships full of French troops had broken out of the mouth of the Red River, signaling that initial progress had been made in evacuating the French forces in North Vietnam, which was something to be happy about.
Allen Wilson took the Great British Treasure, who had the same status as his wife, as well as Xia Meng and Yachigusa Kaoru, who might have the same status in the future, and prepared to enjoy the elegance of Saigon, the Paris of the Orient.
Sometimes Alan Wilson wondered how it was that there were so many Paris of the Orient in this world. How did the French build up this impression in this regard? But Paris of the East is not a good name either, at least in the eyes of many white people, it is synonymous with the land of fireworks.
A bunch of Yanks are partying and flirting with one scantily clad, hot Vietnamese girl after another. No one here cares about politics, not the “wind and clouds”, only the “wind and moon”.
Vivienne secretly pinched the men’s soft underbelly and complained about why they came to such a place. Natsume and Kaoru Yachigusa were a bit uncomfortable, thinking that the man was hinting at something.
“That was really bad, was it when I wasn’t around that you were like this in Kuala Lumpur?” Vivien Lei complained in a small voice, but she didn’t dare to make overly obvious movements, the point was that she was afraid of attracting attention.
“I really don’t have time!” Alan Wilson said mentally that if he had the time to cope with this kind of occasion, it would only make his physical fitness, which was already very barely coping with it, go down another step. There was still an eyeing sister-in-law in Kuala Lumpur right now.
“Who believes you, still can’t see eye to eye. The movie queen has eaten too much to look at these country girls.” Vivien Leigh had an I-don’t-know-you look on her face and gave the man a broken look.
Although this is also a fact, but saying it out loud is a bit bad, leaving the nightclub to get on the car, Alan Wilson nonchalantly wrapped his arms around Fei Wenli and nibbled fiercely, making Natsume and Yachigusa Kaoru, who also got on the car, uncomfortable.
The French evacuation of North Vietnam, although there is an armed conflict, but the whole process can be said to be without danger. The rest is some handover, this handover refers to the French departure, South Vietnam will fall into the hands of who.
Although France was not excluded from still trying to struggle and struggle, Allen Wilson knew that it was impossible to not be taken advantage of by the Americans.
Allen Wilson, who had already set a time to leave, began to pay one last visit to the forces involved before he left. If it is not Wu Tingyan group is the power of the Americans, he wants to find Wu Tingyan to ask if it is possible to put the property in the Bank of England.
Unfortunately, this can only think about, in a few years Ngo Dinh Yen may feel hardened wings will choose to share the risk, but now he definitely does not have the courage, at least in the name of Bao Da Emperor is still the ruler of South Vietnam, Ngo Dinh Yen is not going to choose to be a two-five, and clinging to the thighs of the Americans is the inevitable choice.
Once again, I went to Emperor Bao Dai’s chambers, but this time the Empress did not show up, which was a bit regrettable. Leaving the chambers of Emperor Pao, Allen Wilson went to the American Embassy, he and the Americans are also considered to be not fighting, highlighting the Saigon Boxing Champion of the world, it is estimated that only after twenty years, the Americans skilled mastery of Saigon Iron Fist Ouyi, can be equal to him.
Finally, he went to the French military command in Saigon, and the French commander-in-chief General Navarre farewell.
The two men met already figures, from the arrival of General Navarre until now, Allen Wilson thought of himself as a kind of dedicated to help, and the fact that the British also shelled the harbor of Haiphong for the evacuation of the French, because of a public opinion war.
General Navarre was polite and expressed his gratitude for Alan Wilson’s continued help, indeed, Britain had never treated France so sincerely in centuries since the war until now.
“Unfortunately, you are leaving, and in the future, the pressure from the colonial revolt and the Soviet Union, and even the Americans, will have to be faced by Britain itself independently!” Alan Wilson did not hide his thoughts, “The situation has become much more difficult. It’s like this for you and for us, I don’t know if there will be such an opportunity in the future to talk so easily and freely.”
The future of France is bound to concentrate well on the North African colonies, Allen Wilson is very complicated about this, if Britain and France have lost their colonies, even if they are embracing the United States and the Soviet Union is the object of ridicule.
But if France really keep Algeria, the pressure will be all on the British, if Britain shrinks back to the mainland, not to mention how to face the United States and the Soviet Union in the future, not even to face France can not do. The EEC will inevitably change from being dominated by Britain and France to being dominated by France.
If this kind of future occurs, it is even more unacceptable than the liberation of Europe by the Soviet Union, this kind of future is terrible.
“Mr. Wilson, your pressure is not great, British Malaya is after all an island, West Malaysia is a peninsula East Malaysia is an island, with the strength of the Royal Navy can have good protection.” General Navarre smiled, “Unlike the French colonies, which have to be decided by a ground war, and we can’t stop North Vietnam from receiving future aid.”
“Therein lies the problem, but if it were French Africa, that problem wouldn’t exist. Mediterranean France and the Royal Navy’s Mediterranean Fleet are still strong enough.” Alan Wilson’s heart moved, without a trace, “I look at it from a bystander’s point of view, Paris treats French Africa, either come up and take out the full force, or talk about it, the defeat of the Central and Southern Peninsula may cause some problems. Of course this is a French matter, and my advice is casually heeded.”
“Your advice, I’m sure, is valuable.” General Navarre nodded, he too was ready to take stock of the defeat in the Central South Peninsula, when he returned home.
Allen Wilson rose to take his leave, still not forgetting the invitation to drop by Malaya on his return home if Nawal was in no hurry. Early the next morning, the Saigon Pier to Malaya ship blew its whistle, Allen Wilson had already boarded the return passenger ship, the blue sea and blue sky, the sound of the waves remained.
Summer dream and eight thousand grass Kaoru naturally can’t continue to stay with Fei Wenli, the cabin is not as convenient as the villa after all. Of course this arrangement also gave the Imperial Commissioner greater convenience.
“Where’s Yachigusa Kaoru, why doesn’t she come out to eat.” Vivienne asked Natsume, a little uncomfortable about being one less person.
“She got seasick!” Natsume didn’t dare to tell the truth, your man came into our cabin to perform beastly acts.
Allen Wilson has learned about the Japanese car, very economical, plus very delicate, unlike the European car’s grand atmosphere, it is also considered to have a different sense of beauty.
Subsequently, before the passenger ship arrived in Malaya, Allen Wilson completed the work that made Jin Yong shocked and made Xia Meng also seasick.
“I know both the Governor of Hong Kong and the Prime Minister of Japan, with this relationship, I will not treat you poorly in the future.” Alan Wilson looked at the looming Malayan coastline and whispered a promise to the two women.
“Almost there?” Vivienne carefully came out of the cabin and directly straddled Alan Wilson’s arm.
“Well, almost there.” Allen Wilson said gently to the Great British Treasure, “Hold on tight, it’ll be inconvenient soon.”
“I know.” Already in full commissioner shape, Vivienne knew that she would have to be mindful of repercussions back in Malaya, “Don’t worry, it won’t hold up the Imperial Commissioner’s work.”
