Chapter 984: Please help me with something
"Haha, don't misunderstand, I've heard about the William family, and the mistakes they made are unforgivable. I am very pleased that you have been able to acquire their property, and as the host, I am very welcome to you. On the policy side, if you have any difficulties, you can talk to my secretary, whose contact details are here. As he spoke, Churchill handed over a business card.
The prime minister's move surprised Wang Liang, this treatment is also good, it can't be a plot, right?
According to what I know about the character of Churchill, it shouldn't be.
Seeing Wang Liang's puzzled face, Churchill continued: "Penicillin has an indissoluble bond with me, I have a special affection for it, penicillin is something that can save people's lives. Whether it's the British or people from other countries to produce this drug, it's all used to save people, so I'll support it unconditionally. ”
Speaking of this, Wang Liang's mind suddenly remembered a small allusion from wild history.
In Scotland, England, a poor farmer named Fleming found a boy who had fallen into a cesspool, and he rushed to save the boy from danger.
Two days later, the father of a boy offered to repay him with a generous gift, but the farmer insisted, repeating: "I cannot accept payment for saving your child." ”
The gentleman continued, "Well, since you have saved my child, let me do my part for your son, and let us make an agreement, that I may take your son away, and that I will give him a good education." If this child is as kind as his father, then he will surely become a person you will be proud of in the future. ”
In view of the gentleman's sincerity, the farmer had no choice but to agree to his offer. The farmer's child was sent to school, and he was also sent to St. Mary's Medical College until he graduated.
The farmer's child was none other than Professor Alexander Fleming, a famous British bacteriologist who first invented the world-famous penicillin in 1928.
And the gentleman mentioned above is Winston Churchill, a member of the British House of Lords, whose son who was rescued by a farmer later became a famous British politician and Sir Churchill, the prime minister of World War II.
Wang Liang doesn't know whether this anecdote is true or not, but judging from Prime Minister Churchill's performance at the moment, it should be like this.
"I understand, Prime Minister. Don't worry, I will let it do what it should do, and I will definitely live up to your support and help. Wang Liang naturally took the business card unceremoniously, with the prime minister giving the green light all the way, many procedures must be a lot simpler, saving a lot of trouble, he is naturally unhappy.
As an outsider, doing business in the UK, especially in London, is not an easy thing to do, and someone needs to cover it.
Obviously, Wang Liang already has a big backer.
"Yes." Churchill nodded with satisfaction, and then said: "Actually, I came to you today, I still have some other things, I have encountered some trouble, and I need your help." ”
When Wang Liang heard this, he smiled bitterly, there really won't be pies in the sky.
Lao Qiu gave the sweet dates, it's time to let yourself do things.
"Oh? Is there anything else you need my help with, Your Excellency? Please tell me, if I can do it, I will spare no effort. Although he was unhappy in his heart, he always had an attitude, Wang Liang responded.
"Okay, I'll let Stuart Menzies talk to you." Wang Liang's attitude satisfied Churchill and made a good impression of the young man sitting in front of him.
Zizizi——
With that, Churchill pressed the electric bell under the table.
In just a few seconds, the guards entered the palace.
"Prime Minister, do you have any orders?"
"Let Menzies come here."
"Okay."
After a brief conversation, the guard withdrew.
Seeing that Wang Liang nodded straight, in the end, there are electric bells set up everywhere, and the guards will arrive within ten seconds after pressing them, and my mother no longer understands what danger she will encounter~
However, what makes Wang Liang worth figuring out is the person Churchill wants to introduce himself, Stuart Menzies, Wang Liang has a slight impression of this, and he is also a big man, a major general, and the director of MI6.
The full name of MI6 is the British Army Intelligence Sixth Bureau, also known as the Secret Intelligence Service. Also known as the "Government Telecommunications Bureau" or the "Office of the Permanent Undersecretary of the British Foreign Office", the Western intelligence community regards MI6 as the "founding father" of the British intelligence agency.
From the early days of Elizabeth's creation to the present day in 1942, it and its predecessor were strictly secret, also known as the Secret Intelligence Service, which was originally the overseas espionage system of the British intelligence agency.
Wang Liang estimated that Churchill would not openly reveal the identity of Stuart Menzies, but used other positions to fool around.
After Churchill became prime minister, intelligence agencies received unprecedented attention, and a large number of talented and dedicated young people from universities, from London's business circles, and intellectuals were called to join secret intelligence organizations.
It is worth mentioning that after the outbreak of World War II, Britain released many criminal offenders such as safe-stealers with high skills from prisons and asked them to serve the Allies.
Most of them were allowed to join the commando team; A small number of people joined MI6, and their main tasks were lock-making, safe picking and blasting.
This seemed to be a wartime countermeasure of last resort, because according to the traditional standards for British spies, the ideal spy was a young man of high social origin, financial income, and a cheerful personality.
He must be slightly more educated than the average person, handsome, brave, tenacious, calm and objective, just like the "007" James Bond on the screen.
Therefore, the British spy agency has always attached importance to recruiting spies from the two world-famous universities, Oxford and Cambridge.
This is also a thing that people talk about, and after MI6 was revealed, many blockbusters were filmed around it.
After a while, a little old man in a military uniform and wearing the rank of major general slipped in.
The temples are gray, but the two eyes are bright, and at first glance they are not idle.
Churchill simply sat down for the two of them to introduce, in fact, in Wang Liang's opinion, his materials may have long been familiar to this intelligence boss.
Sure enough, when Menzies was introduced, Churchill used the military to write it off.
"Menzies, now you can tell Mr. Wang Liang about the troubles we are encountering now." Churchill gestured to his general, with a look of tribulation.
"Oh, okay." Menzies slowly and unhurriedly opened his briefcase and laid out stacks of materials on the table.
