Chapter 2113 Royal Scandal
Prince Edward did not arrange a dinner, and it was Neville who had dinner with Roque that night.

Rock hadn't eaten with Neville for a long time, and the two hadn't even met each other for several years. When they met again, they were a little strange to each other.

"Rock, your condition is still so good, almost unchanged from 30 years ago." Neville opened with a compliment, and Rock immediately found a familiar feeling.

Thirty years ago, Joseph Chamberlain, then the British Chancellor of the Exchequer, went to southern Africa for inspection, and Neville was one of the entourage. Rock and Neville met at that time.

Thirty years have passed in a flash. At that time, Roque was still the chief of police in Johannesburg, and Neville was a white glove who accumulated wealth for the Chamberlain family. Now the two are the leaders of the two most powerful countries in the world. The world is amazing .

"Maintain a healthy living habit and keep exercising, and you can do it too." Rock said lightly, everyone knows the truth, but not many people can do it.

"Britain is not southern Africa. I also want to go to bed before ten o'clock every night, but whenever I walk into the bedroom, the time is often after two o'clock in the morning, and sometimes it is even dawn." Neville's expression is bitter, now In England, he is in a good state of mind if he can sleep.

"It's what you deserve! You asked for it!" Rock said bluntly, and the British also deserved it.

"How can you say that!" Neville was inexplicably surprised, and Rock was not so irritable in his impression.

"Then what do you want me to say, for the current situation in the UK, blame the French for not being able to live up to expectations? Blame the Germans for being ambitious? Or blame southern Africa for developing too fast?" Rock was really speechless, the UK played a good hand and played poorly typical.

"You don't understand Britain. Britain is not southern Africa—" Neville was embarrassed. The situation in Britain is indeed complicated, but others cannot be blamed.

The key is that I didn't do my own thing well.

As mentioned earlier, during the period of rapid economic development, many problems will be covered up.

The problem with the UK is that not only has the economy not developed in recent years, but it has gradually weakened, which has led to the continuous exposure of the problem, and finally led to today's situation.

Rock didn't speak, and frowned at the French fries in front of him.

Although French fries are known as the British national dish.

But serving Rock with French fries is a bit unreasonable.

If you make buns and millet porridge or something, maybe Rock can eat a few more bites.

Of course, with the cooking level of a British cook, it is estimated that the steamed stuffed bun and millet porridge would probably be hard for Rock to swallow.

"Don't look, this is the British Prime Minister's dinner." Neville laughed at himself. Others thought that the British Prime Minister was so beautiful, but only the British Prime Minister knew how hard the British Prime Minister was.

Now Neville finally understands what it means to be a blame man.

In British terms it is whipping boy.

Whip means whip, and used as a verb means to whip.

The term whipping boy comes from England in the [-]th century. At that time, the British royal family specially set up a whipping boy. When the prince made a mistake and wanted to be punished, the whipping boy would take the whip instead of the prince.

The Prime Minister of the United Kingdom is the whipping boy of the United Kingdom.

The British economy is sluggish, and the responsibility lies with the British Prime Minister.

The British Prime Minister is responsible for the deterioration of British-French relations.

Germany broke through the Rhineland, and the responsibility still rests with the British Prime Minister.

Even when George V died, some people said that Neville was mad at him.

Neville is really wronged.

Neville is a shareholder of many southern African resource development companies. He has shares in Fawalt Steel Group, Upper Katanga United Mining Co., Ltd., Adan Company, and even Iron Four Corners. He is worth billions, even if he is not the British Prime Minister. , is also the UK's leading millionaire.

In the end, he became the prime minister, but he suffered from this kind of uselessness, and no one else could bear it.

"You can just quit your job and go to Southern Africa for retirement—" Rock wants to turn Southern Africa into a nursing home for the rich all over the world.

"I'm not ready to retire yet." Neville didn't want to give up power.

This attitude is wrong. Winston has already made a retirement plan, and Neville has to be prepared.

Neville is now 67 years old, almost two generations with Rock.

"Have you ever thought that the compromise with Germany will further stimulate the ambitions of the Germans?" Roque said that it is a matter of fact. If Britain abandons the policy of appeasement, then World War II may be avoided.

Rock doesn't want to fight World War II.

Even without World War II, Rock is confident that within ten years, the current world structure will be completely broken.

If you can change the world in a peaceful way, why pay the price of 7000 million dead and 1.3 million injured.

This is another time and space World War II data.

In this time and space, weapons and equipment are more advanced and more lethal than in another time and space. The result of World War II will be more tragic than in another time and space.

"The ambition of the Germans is not necessarily a bad thing for us. If the Germans can be used to counter the expansion of the Russians, then everything is worth it." Neville revealed his heart, and British politicians are not stupid. They are all old and cunning guys. Within the British government, there must have been countless deduction about the current situation.

Therefore, the continental balance policy, which has been criticized repeatedly, is the choice of countless British elites after countless deduction.

Your arsenic, my honey.

It can only be said that there is no best, only the most suitable.

"Then have you considered what kind of harm it will cause to our world if the world war breaks out again?" Rock's inner resentment is indescribable. At the cost of [-] million people, people are so crazy to stop Russia's expansion. up!

"Locke, we're all going to die eventually—" Neville suddenly became a philosopher.

That's right, the theme of the UK these days is death.

"What kind of world do you want to leave behind after we die?" Rock didn't like Neville's attitude.

Neville's subtext is that after I die, the pipes will flood.

Orientals pay more attention to winning fame in life and after death.

"Of course it's a beautiful world, where elites run the country, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and all countries live in peace—" Neville probably didn't believe it himself.

That's right, the ideal, if it is too easy to achieve, it will not be cherished.

Rock finally understood why the British were so afraid of Russia.

Britain is dominated by elites.

Russia is dominated by the working class.

This is a question of national leadership.

To put it bluntly, if the real working class in Britain is in power, then the so-called elites like Neville will lose everything.

So this is not justice or injustice at all, but a war of life and death between classes.

To be honest, Rock can understand why the British government chose the policy of appeasement.

But Rock couldn't accept it.

Rock also no longer tried to persuade Neville, this contradiction was simply irreconcilable.

According to regulations, George V's funeral will be held three days later.

As Roque had expected, before the funeral, a scandal broke out in the royal family.

On the night Roque arrived in London, Prince Edward did not try to win over Roque, but ran out secretly to have a tryst with Mrs. Simpson. The news spread and the whole country was in an uproar.

The king's bones are still cold, and he hasn't been buried yet. His own son, who is also the next king, actually went to a tryst with a woman, and he is still married——

This fucker is simply ridiculous in the world.

It is said that Neville and Stanley Baldwin, as well as a number of senior officials of the British government, advised Prince Edward face to face after the scandal, hoping that Prince Edward would cleanse himself and sever contact with Mrs. Simpson.

Prince Edward reacted violently.

Not only did he directly reject the suggestions of the elders, but he made it clear that he would propose to Mrs. Simpson in the next few months.

Regarding Mrs. Simpson's marital status, Prince Edward said triumphantly that Mrs. Simpson is seeking a divorce from her husband. After the divorce, it is no longer a seduction of a married woman.

It is still said that Stanley Baldwin was admitted to the hospital immediately after meeting Prince Edward.

Rock has really been eating melons to his full in London these days.

Thanks to the pervasiveness of Brad's office, Roque knows all about the British government's crap.

Some things are indeed speculative.

Some are true.

Of course, Roque was not idle either. Prince Edward didn't want to see Roque, but some people wanted to see Roque.

In London these days, there are people who want to see Rock, including French, Germans, Russians, Spaniards, and even Japanese.

Those in Europe want to see Roque, and Roque can understand that whether it is the French or the Germans, they all hope to get the support of southern Africa.

The relationship between Japan and Southern Africa has already deteriorated completely, and there is no room for change. Unless Japan stops its external expansion, Southern Africa will never lift the blockade against Japan.

Yes, Japan is under a strict blockade in southern Africa. Japanese ships cannot stop at ports in southern Africa for supplies, and are not allowed to pass through key places controlled by southern Africa, such as the Strait of Malacca.

This is not southern Africa bullying others. The decision to blockade was not made by southern Africa, but by the League of Nations. Southern Africa just responded to the call of the League of Nations.

After Japan began to expand abroad two years ago, the League of Nations decided to blockade Japan.

This blockade is useless to others, especially the United States, the League of Nations blocked Japan, European countries and southern Africa cut off trade with Japan, Americans are the happiest because they can finally monopolize the Japanese market.

Among all countries, Southern Africa is the most resolute in enforcing the blockade against Japan. It not only refuses to trade with Japan, but also does not allow southern African shipping companies to undertake transportation business related to Japan. Even other countries that do not abide by the blockade decision are also prohibited. would be sanctioned in Southern Africa.

This makes Japan very uncomfortable.

Although Japan has the trade support of the United States, the Americans are not good people. The prices of various materials sold to the Japanese are very high. Those broken ships that are about to be demolished are sold to the Japanese at the price of high-quality steel.

It’s not enough if Japan doesn’t buy it. Who made Japan lack resources.

Under such circumstances, Japan insisted on launching "Yamato" and "Musashi".

So Neville's concerns are also very reasonable. Human ambitions are endless. Even if Britain does not implement the appeasement policy, Germany will embark on the path of communism.
