Chapter 181: Disasters will not be two years in a row

Since the enactment of the Organic Act of the Government of India in 1935, which has been amended, the finances of the whole of British India have been preserved to a certain extent, that is to say, British India has gained a certain degree of autonomy.

The original British Raj had to hand over all its possessions to London, and from then on a portion of the wealth remained in the British Raj. Of course, in times of war, British India should not expect to accumulate wealth.

But now that the war is over, the finances of British India are still okay, after all, this is the advantage of a low-rights area. Able to overcome part of the objective economic laws.

The wealth is moving, and now the situation in the country is complicated, and there is no feasible opinion on British India, and at the end of the year, let these gentlemen guard the taxes of British India, and the pressure on the gentlemen is very great.

On the one hand, there is an uncertain future, and on the other hand, it is a huge wealth for all.

This is very embarrassing, you can only take what you need, as you usually do, after all, it is all for the service of the British Empire, and you can't fish all the time.

However, the future of British India is still uncertain, and the painstaking maintenance of the dignity of the British Empire will have the consequence of being empty of people and money in the end.

But Alan Wilson still opposes the idea of everyone taking the money together and running away, which is a clear crime.

In the straightforward corruption, although everyone here is enough to shoot ten times, but after all, it is within the scope of permission, and the wealth accumulated in British India is directly divided, and everyone has to consider immigration.

Alan Wilson showed that everyone still had to serve the empire, and that they had to master the ways and means. While balancing personal interests, it must not fail to consider the British Empire.

Alan Wilson, who had returned from his home country and was waving a deposit certificate from the Royal Bank of Scotland, did not show that he was superior, but modestly said that there was a feasible solution, that is, Dajian

"Gentlemen, we have to think of ways to make all the indicators look good in a short period of time, but not sustainable. After all, if British India were to become truly independent one day, what we would like to see is, of course, that an independent India would be inferior to British India. ”

Alan Wilson voiced his concerns, "No one wants to see an independent colony get better or better, does it?" If India developed very well after independence, does that not prove that the gentlemen have poor governance of India? ”

"Cement and steel are consumables, but gold is not, as for the rupee? It's essentially a piece of waste paper. The Governor of Bangladesh thought for a moment and said, "Our Bangladesh region is now divided into two parts, and two religions occupy the majority. The western part of Greater Bengal is an important jute producing area, and East Bengal is the textile center of British India, so we can only build on transportation in Assam Province, Bangladesh. ”

Alan Wilson nodded knowingly, the Greater Bengal region is the most important economic region of British India, and Calcutta has long been the administrative center of British India, and now it is also an important town, it cannot be said that there is no development, but the importance of Delhi has been ignored.

The central city of Kolkata was established as the provisional capital of British India and has since developed into a commercial center for all of India. What really dealt a fatal blow to Kolkata was the subsequent partition of India and Pakistan, after which the whole Greater Bengal ceased to exist, but was divided into two hostile countries with different religions.

Jute-producing areas and processing centers became two countries, and Mountbatten said that once the partition of India and Pakistan began, East Pakistan would become the largest slum kiln in the world.

But in fact, the place where Bengalis live as the place with the largest economic aggregate in the entire subcontinent naturally has its own uniqueness, Pakistan after the partition of India and Pakistan, West Pakistan is almost an import economy, where does the money come from? It was earned by East Pakistan, which was later Bangladesh, to earn foreign exchange through exports.

Because East Pakistan has been paying but not being able to leave behind its wealth, the long-term unfairness eventually caused the fuse of Pakistan's infighting.

Bangladesh has long been the textile center of South Asia and an important jute producer. Alan Wilson asked the Administrator of Bangladesh, "Dear Mr. Andrew, I would like to know what percentage of the religious population of Greater Bengal is. ”

"There are more pacifists, but in essence Bengalis are a people, but the religion is different." The Governor of Bangladesh replied, "This is a fact that everyone knows. ”

In fact, after half a year, there have been some changes in British India, such as the change of the chief executive of Bangladesh. There were still some heads of province who chose to leave British India after the war.

This time, Alan Wilson came back and found at least five or six changes in the chief executive. Some had left British India, while others had changed places and were not in their original provinces.

The issue of Dajian cannot be discussed in a short period of time, and it must be discussed for a certain period of time, and then a mature plan will be formulated.

If this is in the country, Alan Wilson estimates that a so-called mature plan will not be able to be completed in a year and a half, but in British India, many administrators and commissioners who are gearing up will definitely not take so long.

Although this is the case, it is certainly not fruitful today, and the idea of agriculture is much simpler.

Under the careful preparation of Sir Barron, the united and stable group of British Indian civil servants decided to talk while eating, after all, they were talking about everyone's food, how could they do without eating?

Although the agricultural problem is not so complicated, it involves the problem of eating, and the real gentleman will only be more cautious when the time comes.

For the purpose of satisfying the local textile industry, the intention to promote cotton planting at the beginning of spring is not all in favor of the voice, such as the chief executive of the central province has doubts about this, "Allen, in fact, this year's grain production in British India is not optimistic, although the drought does not last long, but because we have given priority to the supply of food to the local area, now the warehouses in British India are actually empty, if the climate is not good, there is a food crisis, there may be famine, Bangladesh famine has only passed a few years, Will it cause a backlash from Indians? ”

"Why bounce back? Agriculture is to rely on the weather for food, Indians don't blame the weather, don't blame themselves for being lazy, blame us? Alan Wilson took his glass and wondered, "This is simply unreasonable, saying that there are so many granaries there, who said that they are empty?" The Indians did not know that it was full, and that British India had enough food to survive any natural disaster. ”

"Full?" Glitter was stunned, where does this start? It's not enough to just declare it, once there is a famine, then there will definitely be food needed to balance the price of food, what if you can't come up with it?

"When that time really comes, just find a few people to burn down the warehouse, and say that the grain has been deliberately destroyed by some people. For example, the anti-British elements who sympathized with the Indian National Army. If it doesn't work, it can be pushed onto the Muslim League. Alan Wilson said this and sighed that it was a good idea, and poured the whiskey in his mouth as a compliment to himself.

As for whether it should be pushed to the Indian National Army sympathizers or to the Muslim League, it is necessary to look at the problem flexibly, and at the same time release the news that the Hindus say that the Muslim League did it, and to the elites, it is the National Army sympathizers who did it.

Depending on the position, different groups will naturally adopt what they want to believe.

It's not a big deal, but Alan Wilson adds, "Punjab doesn't get involved in the cotton planting plan, so that the granary is stable, and people don't have to worry." ”

When Gretel heard this, he also felt that there was some truth, and nodded to himself, "That's right, according to common sense, natural disasters will not come for two consecutive years. ”

"It makes sense, and I think so, that there won't be two disaster years in a row. If it does appear, the Indians should reflect on why their god Shiva is punishing the Indians so much? It is definitely that the faith of the Indians is not strong. Alan Wilson teased his colleagues with a smile on his face.

"Haha!" The surrounding chief executives and commissioners were laughing, and the last supper tasted good.

Alan Wilson felt that he had considered a compromise as best he could, and that, in good faith, he did not let Punjab, the breadbasket of British India, come in.

This is already the biggest concession, if there is really a small accident, it is all God's responsibility, natural disasters can't always have anything to do with themselves, right?

As for the grain in Punjab, if he had to export it for foreign exchange, it had nothing to do with him. It was all London's decision-making, and the civil servants of British India were just executors.

Next year's agricultural policy was decided so happily at the reception: to plant cash crops, we must find a way to make the Indian peasants rich first, and when the peasants are rich, we can better promote the development of British India.

From a profit point of view, there is nothing wrong with this decision, as long as there is no natural disaster.

Back at the first civil servant reception in British India, Alan Wilson was greeted by many colleagues, and everyone smiled heartily as the guests and hosts began.

It took a cocktail party to set the agricultural policy of British India for next year, which can be said to reflect excellent efficiency, and if it were to reach London, it would definitely put the local corpse vegetarian colleagues to shame.

The agricultural program is just an appetizer, and there is no oil and water industry, and the big construction is the thing that civil servants are most concerned about.
