Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 2588 The one who pays is the uncle

The foundation under the name of Phyllis does invest a lot of money in many charitable projects every year.

However, there are also some expenditures that cannot be made public, especially some projects in Europe.

Speaking of projects in Europe, many people may not believe it. Europe has colonized the world for so many years since the Age of Discovery, and all of them are old imperialist countries. Does anyone still need relief food?
Really.

Not only that, but there are quite a few people who need relief food, especially in the winter that just passed.

Last year was the sixth winter since the outbreak of the world war, and it was also the coldest.

In the fifth year of the World War, all the countries participating in the war were exhausted, their economies were sluggish, their agriculture was barren, and their social wealth was greatly lost. The wealth accumulated by many ancient families over hundreds of years was destroyed, not to mention the people at the bottom who were already living in difficulties.

Why is France not interested in attacking Germany?

It's not that the French don't want revenge, but that the French are completely tired of war, and even for such things as revenge against Germany, they have begun to stay away.

Needless to say, 20 years ago, five years ago, if you said to a Frenchman, "When is it time to repay the grievance", that Frenchman might reprimand you sternly.

After all, it's cheap for him to act as an agent.

The Phyllis Foundation has charitable projects in France, as well as business operations. After all, charitable enterprises also need their own hematopoietic ability, so that they can have greater strength to help others.

However, the attitude of the union is also very firm. If the requirements of the union are not met, the workers will not resume work, and they will occupy the factory, preventing the management from resuming work in any other way.

It really works.

When it was not in power, the Comintern called workers to strike at every turn, wishing to carve up government assets and enterprises, so that the per capita capitalists would settle.

Renault also didn't expect that Renault's biggest opponent was not the southern African car companies, but the trade unions organized by the Communist International.

"The victim not only does not hate the intruder, but thanks the intruder. Is there anything more bizarre than this?" Edward Daladier did not appreciate Choltitz, but hated all intruders.

Every unemployed worker is equivalent to a vote in the eyes of French politicians. Only by satisfying voters can politicians have room to realize their own value.

Randall didn't seem to care whether Renault resumed work, which made Henry at a loss.

In 42, Édouard Daladier was accused of being responsible for the failure of France and later served prison terms in Germany and Austria.

After the German invasion, the Renault factory took the initiative to produce military materials for the Germans in order to survive. As a result, after the war, the Renault car factory was also confiscated, and now it is taken over by the management team formed by Renard.

Edouard Daladier had just been released and had just returned to Paris when the Allies invaded Austria after the Vienna Offensive.

It has been less than half a year since the recovery of Paris, but Renault has not resumed production. The trade unions have very strict requirements. While greatly improving the treatment of workers, they also demand to increase the benefits of workers, and strictly implement the two-day work system and the eight-hour work system. In addition to the holidays stipulated by the French government every year, an additional 30 days of paid leave are added.

France is not yet a welfare society, and the management will certainly not be able to meet the demands of the trade unions.

"We all have to thank General Choltitz. If he hadn't been lenient, Paris would have ceased to exist." Renard felt grateful for Paris, although this was a bit inappropriate.

When Leonard and Edward Daladier met, in the workshop of the largest factory in Paris, the management team and lawyers hired by Leonard were negotiating with the trade union organized by the Communist International.

When France surrendered, Édouard Daladier served as Minister of Defense and later as Minister of Foreign Affairs. After de Gaulle established Free France in North Africa, Édouard Daladier tried to leave Paris for North Africa, but unfortunately failed.

After all, the owner has changed.

During the war, many original professionals in Paris fled abroad, so poor students like Randall had the opportunity to stand out.

"Okay, it's time to get off work, and that's all for today's work." Randall looked politely as he saw that the time was almost up.

During the period of German rule, Paris basically did not change, horses ran as usual, dances continued to dance, and Paris was still the Paris of extravagance.

"If they don't go back to work, what will we do?" Watching Randall and his party leave happily, talking and laughing, and even discussing where to go for a drink later, Oakes, who was a real worker, was very anxious.

Don't tell others, Mr. Felix Gouin, in the eyes of Edward Daladier, is very strange.

"So you let them lead France to the abyss?" Edward Daladier's hostility to the Comintern would not change.

Henry had a gloomy expression and was furious.

Although the war is not over yet, the French government has shifted its main energy from war to economic construction.

France has no shortage of technology, resources, or market, but the contradictions of people cannot be reconciled.

Now that the Communist International is about to become the ruling party, Leonard and Edward Daladier want to see if Felix Gouin will kill himself first.

Now the Communist International has become the most influential party in France, so Renard and Edward Daladier are very curious.

As for national security after major disarmament—

"Well, you're right—" Randall didn't want to quarrel with Henry, and solving the problem is the business: "—our goal is to resume work as soon as possible. Only when value is created will there be profits to distribute, otherwise we They will all get nothing."

As a representative of the Communist International, Henry had dealt with the factory management a lot before.

Before the war broke out, if Randall wanted to enter a law firm, he had to start as an intern at the bottom.

Edward Daladier couldn't help but laugh.

This factory was originally a car factory under the name of the former richest man in France, Louis Renault. The Renault cars produced are very popular in France and are the largest car brand in France.

"France is a democratic country. This is the French people's own choice. How can you say that?" Renard pretended to be stupid. This is why he was smarter than Edward Daladier.

Leonard is not joking either. He is now fully cooperating with the Communist International's strategy at best, and is bad at worst.

This refers only to the political ecology of Paris.

"Fortunately—" Edward Daladier said briefly.

"Aren't there few strange things in these years? This is Paris, and anything can happen—" Leonard had a playful expression, looking in the direction of the Capitol.

"Boy, you just walked out of school. I have worked for 30 years, so I deserve to be paid more than you." Henry was confident, this is the role of seniority.

"You and General de Gaulle, why did you allow this to happen?" Edward Daladier really couldn't figure it out. In just two years since he was in prison, France has turned upside down.

The Comintern has a long history in France. The strategy of the French Comintern has always been to use strikes as the main means to force the French government and capitalists to make concessions to the workers in order to expand their influence among the French workers.

Felix Gouin was the leader of the French Comintern, and he was an old acquaintance with Édouard Daladier. In September 39, when Édouard Daladier was the French Minister of Defense, he declared the party supported by the French Comintern illegal , and a trial of members of Congress from the Comintern.

The reason is that Germany needs a model to prove the correctness of Germany's war. After all, the French have stopped resisting so much, and the Germans have to show generosity and kindness.

Now Leonard wants to follow the example of Felix Gouin and organize workers to fight against the French government for their own interests.

After the recapture of Paris, the veil of tenderness was torn, and various forces such as the Nativists, the Free France of North Africa, and the Communist International took turns to mobilize, and Paris became the Paris familiar to Édouard Daladier.

Whether the factory resumes work is not important to Randall and Henry, they have Leonard and the Comintern to pay their salaries.

More than 100 million people eat horses and waste, which is overwhelmed for the current French government.

The Paris Commune of that year evolved from strikes at first.

In this way, of the 120 million Free French Army, at least 110 million must be retired, otherwise the French government will go bankrupt sooner or later.

"Sir, the suit you wear is more expensive than mine, and your salary must be higher than mine, so your life should be happier than mine—" Randall, who just graduated from the University of Paris, was very excited. Helpless, he was a penniless poor student not long ago, and he only had the money to buy this outfit after he joined Renault Automobile.

It is a very difficult process to recognize yourself if you are not in charge of your family.

Roosevelt's death had an impact on all countries, and France was no exception.

According to Leonard's usual habit, if the workers go on strike, they should be dismissed directly, and another group of people should be recruited, preferably from North Africa, because those North Africans are more obedient.

In the past few months, the management team headed by Randall has been negotiating with the union in such an unhurried manner. Don't worry if the negotiation fails, and start again from the beginning tomorrow. Even if Henry yells, Randall is not in a hurry. Self-cultivation is very different from the factory management that Henry has come into contact with before.

After all, a strike is the trade union's biggest bargaining chip. If it really reaches the level of a strike, even the French government will intervene.

Many people don't expect that in France, the person who hates the re-employment training program the most is not De Gaulle or Renard, but Felix Gouin and the Comintern led by him.

Édouard Daladier envied Renard, who served as prime minister after de Gaulle created Free France.

The Communist International has called for many years that the workers should be the masters of the country, and French workers have been thinking about it day and night.

"We work hard all day, in exchange for three meals a day and injuries, and your good life, we are in a dirty and noisy workshop, you are in a bright and spacious office, the boss is on a beach vacation, so we also have the right to corporate development The due dividends, your happy life, are created with our hands!" Evan Henry, a representative of the Communist International from Marseilles, spoke impassionedly, and the expensive handmade suits on his body had nothing to do with the dirty and noisy workshops.

"If you don't meet our requirements, then we won't resume work, never!" Henry thought he had grasped Randall's culprit, and refused to budge.

After all, Renault doesn't live off Renault's profits.

From 1933 to 1940, Edouard Dara served as Prime Minister of France for the third time. The shortest second time was only ten days, and the longest time did not exceed two years.

That's the crux of the matter.

Compared with Edward Daladier, Leonard is a safe and harmless old man, so Leonard can be prime minister for four or five years, and Edward Daladier's shortest prime minister career is only ten days.

Returning to the Elysee Palace was also a revisit for Edward Daladier. Everything was so familiar, but it made Edward Daladier feel strange.

At the Elysee Palace in Paris, Renard, who served as the Prime Minister of the Provisional Government, welcomed his friend Edward Daladier.

Edward Daladier was a man who could clearly distinguish between his likes and his dislikes, and he would express his dislikes undisguisedly without leaving any room for them.

"How is it? Are you still used to it?" Leonard said with a pun.

Renard, once the richest man in France, was once the biggest victim of the French labor movement.

There is no need to persuade now, most French people already understand this truth.

In Paris in the past few months, the changes have indeed been quite large, even greater than the changes during the German rule.

The most influential charitable project of the Phyllis Foundation in France is the reemployment training for unemployed workers. This project is not only welcomed by unemployed French workers, but also strongly supported by the French government.

Most of the time, the union and the management will never fall out. Both sides have a tacit understanding. The union makes a request, the management cuts a knife, and the union makes a concession. Both parties can accept it and think that they are the winners.

I hope that Felix Guin will not dispatch the military and police to suppress it by extreme means. After all, even Leonard and Edward Daladier have never done this kind of thing.

The Free French Army formed by de Gaulle had 120 million troops at its peak.

There is nothing wrong with this statement. If you don’t resume work, there will be no profit. Can Leonard still go to the beach for vacation?

Some people like it, some people hate it.

To put it bluntly, the profit that Renault can create is not even as high as the profit of Nyasaran.

"If you want to know the taste of a pear, you'd better taste it yourself." There are some things that Leonard can't control, so he can only follow the trend.

That's right, this is Paris, and there's no shortage of weird ones.

The Federal Government of Southern Africa has already promised this issue. If France disarms, the Federal Government of Southern Africa will guarantee France's security.

Workers like Oaks are the real victims.

"What can I do after resuming work? Who will I sell the tank to?" Henry was also at a loss.

During the Vichy government, the Renault factory was converted to produce tanks, and then converted back, requiring a lot of money.

The Comintern did not want to pay this fee, nor could it afford it.
