Chapter 212: The Twilight Years

The wedding was huge, and on the surface, John Bull seemed to be back on the rise, and even if he didn't return to his prime, the gap didn't seem to be huge.

I have to say that a once powerful country does have the possibility of becoming strong again, but unfortunately, John Bull can't do this.

If this group of guys had gone to Tuao at that time, they might have some opportunities, but it's a pity that the British Isles have nothing, and they can be regarded as a model of small countries and widows.

It was hot, and if it weren't for politeness, William White would have gone home early, not to mention, from any point of view, the pair wasn't a good match.

"Alas, flowers are stuck in cow dung. ”

"Nani, what did you say?"

"Well, they look happy. ”

William White didn't bring any confidantes on this trip, such an important occasion, you can't bring people casually, if people misunderstand, it's definitely not a good thing.

In William White's view, John Bull will indeed calculate, support the footbasin people to contain Maozi, and later to contain the American imperialists, and support the Germans to contain the Gallic rooster.

I have to say that they have been doing a good job, but it is a pity that they underestimated their little cousin, and after the Second World War, they completely lost their former scepter.

As for the countries that are calculated by them, except for this little cousin, almost all of them have fallen into bad luck, and I have to say that a set of continental balance policies has killed almost all countries.

Some people say that the culprit of World War II was the mustache, although this statement is true, but how can you forget the hair, they were in the same league as the mustache at that time.

And the damned John Bull, if it weren't for their connivance, the mustache wouldn't have gotten up at all. You really think Chamberlain is an idiot, maybe they did it on purpose.

Why didn't the Gallic rooster fight later?

It was discovered that so many people had been lost in the first war, and if there had been another battle of the Marne, the Gallic rooster would have a few people alive.

The war of the Europeans is basically over after the fight, and I have not heard that they are going to be killed, so it is better to appease than to die.

Well, some say no bones.

This John Bull is bad, okay, why should people be cannon fodder.

Of course, it didn't end well with the mustache, so there was de Gaulle.

Haha, John Bull was mad at the time, and if it weren't for the stupidity of the mustache, no one in Dunkirk would have escaped.

If you think about it, you can understand that John Bull and the mustache are definitely connected, and this person's position is not low, you really think that the mustache is a fool.

John Bull fled, abandoning the Gallic rooster's soldiers, and you can see from this that John Bull was tricked, and he was annoyed and angry, and he didn't want the least of his demeanor.

Dealing with this group of cunning guys, William White is not an opponent at all, fortunately he has a team, and there is no need to go into battle in person.

In William White's view, John Bull is finished, and there will be no other option than to hug the thighs of the American imperialists.

"Boss, BP is also on the sale, and the recent oil price is relatively high, which seems to be a bit of a trick. ”

"Well, they're going to privatize the ministry?"

"I heard that this was the case, and the desert tyrants were very interested. ”

"Haha, just socialize, these bastards have a lot of money, Filson, what do you think is going on with the Hunter family? That's a conspiracy, something we can all know, and the Fed won't know?"

"Boss, you mean traps. ”

"Ha, the wealth is moving, the desert area was originally John Bull's, and now not only do you need to spend money to buy oil, but you can also buy their largest business, haha, if the bastards from Tuao come to buy it, they may put up with it, as for the desert tyrants, it's a joke. ”

Filson didn't ask why William White had such a judgment, anyway, he knew that the boss was not interested in these so-called good assets, at most he was just doing a favor and having fun.

Using oil as a weapon, this is the beginning of the disaster, and if you dare to meddle in the downstream industry, it will be a matter of IQ.

This is a big game of chess, to be honest, William White didn't dare to participate in it at all, this is an absolutely deadly deal, and he only went to stir it up after he ate it.

The younger brother of the US imperialists was beaten up, what kind of oil embargo are you doing, well, Europe is very cooperative, let alone sending troops, even weapons can't be transported.

The world is very cooperative with the desert tyrants, and they plan to disgust the American imperialists.

Their goal has been achieved, and the US imperialists are indeed not disgusting, but that's it.

If your oil price rises, then my American knife will depreciate, and if you want gold, it's a dream, and you can't take it away at all.

William White knows very well that the Star Wars project that is now hyped up is simply a scam, Lao Mei knows very well that Maozi's economy is almost finished, you can't use too much money to engage in military exercises, how good Star Wars is, it will drag down Maozi's economy in a few years.

Oil is worth a lot of money now?

Then let the price of oil fall.

The group of turtles in the desert are not obedient, they still dare to erect seedlings to make a coax, the price of oil is also rising, now it is better, you still want to control the downstream industry, you actually plan to let Lao Mei pedal a bicycle.

William White has no interest in BP, and he doesn't plan to mess with John Bull's good deeds, or even help them raise the price.

As a major oil producer in the world, the United States actually needs to call on people not to refuel on weekends.

It's funny to think about it, an oil crisis, but let the footbasin people seize the opportunity, low-fuel consumption cars continue to sell well, and a bunch of car factories in the United States were sent directly to the grave.

Lao Mei actually belongs to the fooled, the foot basin car is fuel-efficient, that is just a theoretical number, the same level of cars, the foot basin production is about 100 kilograms lighter, if you increase this load, they are definitely larger than the fuel consumption of European cars.

Well, you say Buick, this is a bit heart-piercing, the old American car suspension is not good, fuel consumption is not good, and the quality is also a mess, but it is slightly better than the stick of this period.

John Bull's wedding of the century is more like a swollen face and a fat man, your treasury is empty, isn't it good to travel directly to get married, at least you can save money.

Today's Britain can be summed up in one word, that is, selling, no matter what you fancie, basically buy it, well, this is very similar to a specific period of a certain dynasty, the biggest difference is, don't think about cheap, it's impossible.

Well, as for the dismissal of workers and then selling, this is really not nothing, everyone knows very well that the reason why these companies do not make money is that the burden is too heavy.

Of course, the capitalists don't want these burdens, what they need is a clean asset, but it is a pity that although the guilds here are not as outrageous as the United States, they are also not easy to mess with, the coal miners have been on strike for a year, and now it seems that there is no possibility of solving the problem.

White Welsh coal is good, but it's useless, it's not World War I, John Bull doesn't have that many battleships, and no matter how high the burn value is, you can't compare it to oil.

If there are still tens of thousands of workers, then don't say anything, whoever owns a mine is a negative asset.
