British Civil Servant

Vol 2 Chapter 526: angrily against the UK

"Hey, don't talk like that, you are the hope of all the nobles." Alan Wilson gestured to Charles Brook with his hand holding the wine glass, "Pamela and I are fiancées, and it was a coincidence before that when you went to diplomacy I happened to be there when I was in the ministry, so I could help out."

Pamela Mountbatten is now undoubtedly the hope of the whole village. During the war Churchill raised the British inheritance tax to 98%, which is not bad, and returned the remaining 2%.

It can be seen that Alan Wilson put a brake on Newfoundland and solved the difficulties of the British aristocracy. Now Pamela Mountbatten is going abroad with the investment of the aristocracy. There may be some that the aristocracy does not support, but Alan Wilson did not see it.

Alan Wilson represented the civil servants in Whitehall, and Pamela Mountbatten represented the British aristocracy. In front of Charles Brooke, who came from afar, he performed a standard combination of interests.

Let the king who turned the kingdom of Sarawak into cash in one fell swoop, to see the power of the husband and wife team.

As for the next thing, that is, the issue of the throne of the Kingdom of Sarawak, this matter is worth discussing carefully.

On this point, Pamela Mountbatten also wanted to ask her fiancé to come up with an idea, but when the two were chatting privately, colleagues from Whitehall and unknown nobles always interrupted, and the two could only laugh.

"The heir to the Earl of Cardigan!" After the other party turned and left, Pamela Mountbatten introduced her aristocratic status to greet her for the seventh time, and she responded with a long yawn from Ellen Wilson.

It's not that there is any dissatisfaction. After all, five colleagues from Whitehall have also come. After waiting for a while, it was finally quiet for a moment, "What do you think about the question of the Kingdom of Sarawak."

"Let Charles Brooke pass the throne to me." Pamela Mountbatten asked, tilting her head, "what do you think?"

"Can this be done? But I thought of a custom called renunciation in the East." Alan Wilson pondered for a while, "At present, under the threat of high inheritance tax, the situation of the aristocratic class and our civil service system are both Almost. Our survival is in overseas territories, and I believe you are not willing to repeat the bankruptcy of the aristocracy after World War I. In fact, you can abandon the view of the door, as long as the aristocracy, even the Irish can also absorb it. "

Although Ireland is already a republic, just like the general situation in Europe, it recognizes its original aristocratic status, as is France and Germany. From a class perspective, these are credible people.

Speaking of this, Alan Wilson just remembered, isn't the Earl of Cardigan the protagonist in the 21st century who couldn't afford the inheritance tax and sold the family castle as a result?

Thinking of this, Alan Wilson also glanced at the heir to the Earl of Cardigan who had just gone elsewhere. The age was not right, so probably his son happened to be the generation of Earl of Cardigan that went bankrupt.

"I think the signing of the contract with Charles Brooke to inherit the throne is successful, but it will not be announced for the time being. We look for experience from history, and we can first set up a local company. What do you think?" Alan Wilson said. Waiting for Pamela Mountbatten's statement.

"I'll listen to you." Pamela Mountbatten looked attached, she knew that her fiancé had always been a long-term planner, and the guarantee was the success rate.

It is also a tradition for the United Kingdom to set up a company to operate a colony. The East India Company is only more famous in Asia. Also includes, but is not limited to, the Massachusetts Bay Company in the United States, the Hudson's Bay Company in Canada, and the Rhodes Company in Africa.

Some of these companies still exist today, such as the Hudson's Bay Company. After its establishment in Canada, with the loss of the territorial and fur trade monopoly, the Hudson's Bay Company entered the commodity market and began to continue to develop diversified businesses, such as continuing Invest in energy and infrastructure.

The most successful business of the company today is retail, which can even be called the most famous local department store in Canada. The rise of this business is also based on the trading posts established by the company all over Canada.

So the Hudson's Bay store that sold daily necessities for new immigrants all over western Canada has gradually become a store that can be seen everywhere, and its success in clothing retail can be regarded as a disgrace to its old business.

Alan Wilson felt that since Pamela Mountbatten just wanted a throne, naturally there was no need to treat the local area as a source of raw materials, and try to operate it as a company first.

If this method doesn't work, then try the concession in Eastern culture, and let Charles Brooke give the kingdom to Pamela Mountbatten. Anyway, the colonial policies of Britain and France are different. France can teach a group of Africans that our ancestors were glorious Gauls.

The British colonial policy is diametrically opposed, that is, to recognize various local cultures, and to personally arrange it may be the last concession in human history. Alan Wilson is no problem, you have to try everything?

"I suddenly remembered one thing. I heard that Mr. Churchill's expenses are very large after he is not prime minister. Is his family wealthy?" He took two glasses of wine from the waiter's tray, and Alan Wilson took the Pamela Mountbatten sat down and asked what was going on.

"Churchill's own life is very luxurious." Pamela Mountbatten thought for a moment, "but his family is not very rich, he is not the eldest son, and he has no title, but with his achievements in World War II, Maybe canonized. But I heard he's writing a book and living on royalties."

"A stinky novelist!" Alan Wilson snorted twice and said with a look of contempt, "Of course, he was the leader of the British Empire in the World War, and he is shameless for a little royalty, I don't know him Is it written in the book that during World War I, two battleships pushed the Ottoman Empire to the Allies, leading to the complete siege of Imperial Russia and the birth of the Soviet Union?"

"What can you do?" Pamela Mountbatten's heart moved when she heard Alan Wilson's words. Churchill set a 98% inheritance tax, which is simply confiscation of the property of the nobles. As for the nobles now Not to welcome the former prime minister, that's the obvious thing.

"It's not what I can do, but what do you want to do? If you want to see the Churchill family go bankrupt, you have to sacrifice the class of writers. Isn't he writing a memoir and finding a way from royalties." Allen Wilson lowered his voice and said, "Actually, there is no need to hesitate. The class who is kneeling and throwing a fist is offended. The person who controls the pen can't be spared at the critical moment."

Churchill's career as a writer began when he was Chancellor of the Exchequer in the 1920s. As Chancellor of the Exchequer, Churchill met with Richard Hopkins, the then Deputy Secretary of the Treasury, and told him that I was not able to pay Tax, is there any way to save it?

Given that Churchill had previously worked as a journalist and published novels, Hopkins suggested that your Excellency declare “retirement” as a writer, so that income could be declared as royalties, which are capital gains and cannot be counted as personal income, so that you can perfectly evade taxes.

Churchill became prime minister before the war, and major publishing houses flocked to him, bringing in £600,000 to Churchill that year.

As he battled the raging war, he fought the tax department, insisting that royalties be included in the capital gains of retired writers.

"Dear, it looks like you have a solution?" Pamela Mountbatten was no longer interested in the current reception, and asked what the solution to this problem was.

"With the reform of copyright tax, he can kill the rich and help the poor to support the war. We can do the same." Alan Wilson said lightly, "A writer with an annual income of 600,000 pounds? Except for him, right? We can also do the same. The royalties are graded, according to the current living standards of London citizens. The higher the extraction rate, the higher the percentage of royalties. Writers with an annual income of more than half a million pounds will have to pay more tax on their royalties, if you wish. Ninety-eight percent can be taxed, just like estate tax."

"Is this still possible?" Pamela Mountbatten's eyes lit up, she couldn't help kissing her fiance and said, "Honey, you really have a way."

"What's the solution? This kind of way of harming others and not oneself is not difficult." Alan Wilson put his finger on his lips and said softly, "Pay attention to confidentiality, he still has a lot of supporters, and also, if he If we win the election, this matter will not be done. First of all, we need to know how many best-selling writers are there~www.wuxiaspot.com~ How strong is the rebound, this is beyond your ability, I will go to Whitehall to find out."

While paying attention to the general election process, the work of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is of course not idle. As a professional, Alan Wilson has been firmly cheering for Hong Kong when the situation in the Far East is in crisis, saying that Hong Kong is not in danger of falling.

Although at the time of the Battle of Guangzhou, there was a situation where 100,000 people crossed the border in one day, and even when the local people in Xiangjiang asked whether the border was closed, Alan Wilson firmly replied that there was no need to close the call, and it was enough to send people to Kalimantan.

It has now been two months since the Battle of Guangzhou, and the crisis in the Far East has been lifted. Although the general election is a major event in the UK at present, Alan Wilson was still sending electricity to the Far East a few days ago, conveying the message of Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevin. Meaning, on January 6, Britain recognized the change of Chinese regime.

Now Alan Wilson went to the Foreign Office Building to meet the Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevin, disturbing the foreign secretary who was not in good health and insisted on running. Lesser, Alan Wilson translates directly.

"I am ashamed of Britain for selling its national soul for petty profits. One day, Britain will pay the price of blood, sweat and tears for these interests in the battle for freedom. It is morally wrong, in the It can never be right politically.”
