Before dinner, Zhou Nan and his party walked out of the conference room with heavy faces. Today's meeting was a contest of compromise interests, and South China made a number of concessions and finally won the support of the British side.

Although Zhou Nan's heart was about to bloom, he still had to pretend to be very sad.

Hou Cong's expression was not disguised, although his status was not low, but he was not qualified to know the inside story that only a few decision-makers knew.

Nanhua deliberately made himself the target of Javanese revenge and obtained a pretext for war, and this matter could never be declassified.

Those are the only people who can know about it, and they will also bring the secret into the coffin.

It stands to reason that Zhou Nan does not have any political position in Nanhua, and the only position of university president is one of the two presidents of Nanhua University.

But both the British and Zhou Nan ignored this.

The telegram sent from Nanhua also authorized Zhou Nan's negotiation with the British, and Hou Cong acted as Zhou Nan's negotiating deputy without complaint.

The results of their negotiations will first be endorsed by Hou Cong, and then when Zhou Nan goes to Nanhua, the parliament and government seals of Nanhua will be stamped.

Coming out of the conference room, Zhou Nan unexpectedly saw Marita appear at the end of the corridor, and then walked in front of Zhou Nan in front of everyone.

"Jonas, are you leaving?"

"Yes, even if it hadn't happened, I would have been leaving."

"Today is my coming-of-age ceremony, but I'm not particularly happy. I was even more upset when something like this happened. ”

Of course, Zhou Nan knew why she was unhappy, but he could only reply with a superficial meaning: "Her Royal Highness the princess is kind-hearted, and I would like to express my gratitude on behalf of the people of Nanhua." Life is never going to be easy, and all of us should face the future with a more positive mindset. ”

She curtsy, got up and stretched out her arms and said, "I also hope that the people of Nanhua will get out of their grief as soon as possible...... I wish you a safe journey. ”

"Thank you!" Zhou Nan gently held her finger belly and imprinted a gentle kiss on the back of her finger.

Zhou Nan understood that she was taking this opportunity to say goodbye to herself alone, although there were a group of politicians next to her, but they would not know about the emotional exchange between the two people.

She smiled, then faced George as he came out of the room. "Dad, dinner is ready, everyone is waiting for you to be seated."

The main dish of dinner was the deer that George and they hunted today, Zhou Nan ate a large piece of roast venison, and before the banquet was over, he withdrew with Hou Cong and Attlee.

They are going to London now, and tomorrow they will get the official papers, and they will leave for South China.

In the afternoon, Audrey and Kelly had already packed their bags and put them in the vans of the convoy.

After dinner and a short farewell, the group set off for the seaside town of Dundee, where they boarded a plane back to London.

This is the first time that Zhou Nan has boarded his own plane, the Constellation Plane is one of the largest planes today, but it can only carry more than 60 people, and it can carry no more than three tons of supplies.

The modified aircraft, named the Audrey by Zhou Nan, has 32 seats in the cabin, as well as a small bedroom with a double bed and an entertainment lounge.

Hughes was arguably the most playful billionaire of his time, and the aircraft interiors he helped design were not outdated even in later generations, and in this era, they seemed extravagant.

If it weren't for the fact that the atmosphere was really oppressive today, I'm afraid Attlee would have expressed their envy.

Only Melissa was particularly excited, and when the plane took off, she couldn't wait to walk around the plane, lying on that big bed and not wanting to get off.

"Audrey, I'll marry Jonas in the future, so that I can use this plane often in the future."

Audrey couldn't help but laugh and said, "Didn't you say you were going to marry Leon before?" ”

"But he doesn't have a plane to sleep on......"

Zhou Nan couldn't help but laugh and said, "Leon is my younger brother, and my plane is no different from his." ”

She hesitated for a moment, and said with some confusion: "Then I'd better marry Leon, he doesn't have a girlfriend now......"

This next week, the smile on Nan's face was overflowing, and at such a time, when he heard the child's simple words, there would always be a simple happiness.

He now needs to face a complex international situation, and he also enjoys this simple pleasure in deceitful people and things.

In the back of the cabin, Attlee and the others were either whispering together or closing their eyes.

Seeing Zhou Nan return to his seat, Attlee opened his eyes and asked, "Jonas, is the process of nationalization of resources still going smoothly in South China?" Are you experiencing any particular difficulties? ”

"No, the foundation of South China is different from that of the United Kingdom, and this has not met with much resistance in South China. Resource companies, large enterprises controlled by the state, but allowed to be invested by individuals, are still progressing relatively smoothly. ”

Attlee let out a long sigh, a look of weariness on his face.

After World War II, Britain also began to nationalize large enterprises and land, but encountered great resistance.

Although his Labour government is not well known internationally because it is sandwiched between Churchill's two terms, it does not mean that Attlee is not capable of this person.

He was named the most efficient politician by the British in later generations, which is the best praise for him.

NHS. This institution, which is now controversial, has been widely accepted by society in later generations.

The Attlee government nationalized the country's major industries and utilities, most notably coal mining and steel. In addition, he founded the state-owned British Railway, the national park system, and the health care agency.

In fact, until later generations, Britain's development has benefited from some of the economic policies he is now implementing, and Britain will be able to sell land in the next century, thanks to this Labour government.

However, their reforms were faced with the middle and upper classes of the whole of Britain, and it can be said that they were struggling.

The fact that there was a pornographic joke between him and Churchill illustrates their approach to governance and the resistance they encountered.

In 45 years, Churchill lost to Labour's welfare state proposition in the post-war election, and fell out of power as a "backbencher".

On one occasion he and Prime Minister Attlee met in the toilet of the House of Commons, and they went together to relieve themselves after the meeting.

On the same day, the House passed the bill to nationalize the railroads, and Attlee said, "Winston, are you a little lost today?" ”

Churchill pointed to his job and said, "No." It's just that you're going to nationalize every big thing, and I'm scared! ”

This joke of politics, economics and "yellow" is said to be true, and is currently popular among Britain's upper social circles.

On more than one occasion, Zhou Nan heard others use this joke to attack the Labour government.

Attlee changed the subject and said, "The main victims of this violent incident are the Wicans, and this incident has also caused a strong reaction in Malaysia. Bewen will travel with you to South China to resolve the protests in Malaysia. I hope that you can communicate more and try to ease the current ethnic antagonism in Malaysia through this incident. ”

"I will, if South China digests Riau Province, Jambi Province, and South Sumatra, the territory will increase by more than 10 million people, and more than half of the Malays, and the future South China will be the same as Malaysia, becoming a country of ethnic integration, and enhancing the integration of the two sides will become the common goal of the two regions."

He nodded and said, "There are 40 percent Chinese in Malaysia, and there will be 40 percent Malays in South China in the future." National integration will be a common issue for both countries. I hope that Nanhua can set a good example, which will also be conducive to the development of our UK to Malaysia. ”

He also has one concern that he has not spoken, and that is the control of the economy by Chinese Americans.

In the past, the Chinese had been the comprador class of the British and Dutch who governed the East Indies, and in the course of hundreds of years of development, although the Chinese had undergone many cleaning and sheep cutting, the Chinese were industrious, thrifty, intelligent and capable, so that this people still controlled the economy of the entire region.

The establishment of South China is indeed conducive to British rule in Malaysia in the short term, but in the long run, it will directly affect the regional discourse.

However, Attlee is also well aware that even without the independence of South China, Malaysia's independence is irreversible. Even the Philippines has become independent, the United States is currently only controlling the economy, and it is impossible for Britain to stay in Malaysia.

If it weren't for the fact that the two major ethnic groups in Malaysia now want to gain political discourse, the British would have taken advantage of this contradiction to drag Malaysia's independence process all the time.

Today, when India, Burma, the Philippines, and the Dutch East Indies are all independent, Malaysia may have declared its independence long ago.

Of course, there is another very important reason for this, and that is the competition between the Eastern and Western camps.

Malaysia has also become a testing ground for struggle, and the British now hold a hot potato in their hands. However, for the sake of the greater good, Britain is now dragging its feet one day at a time.

If the development of South China can provide a new direction for Malaysia, it will be beneficial to the UK. Therefore, Britain will agree to the development of South China to the north, add more minorities to South China, and see how South China can solve this problem.

The Umpans in Malaysia are now adamantly opposed to ethnic Chinese domination of the country, believing that the Chinese control the economy and that politics can only be controlled by them.

But of course, it is impossible for the Chinese to listen to the Wu people, most of the cities are controlled by the Chinese, how can they give up the control of the country?

Add to that the wave of the Red Revolution and the wrestling between the Eastern and Western camps, and Britain now needs to have a better way of managing the region.

Zhou Nan's ability has not been tested to the limit until now, and in addition to academics, many of his political decisions are considered groundbreaking.

Britain is now waiting for Zhou Nan, and after South China controls a larger area and a larger population, what method will it use to manage ethnic antagonism.

And Zhou Nan didn't care, as long as Nanhua could eat the fat in his mouth now, he would never spit it out again in the future.

If you don't grab land now, it will be even more impossible in the future, not to mention that it is still a land with fertile land, the largest oil reserves in Southeast Asia and rich minerals.
