Reborn as a police officer in South Africa

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

However, there are also some expenditures that cannot be disclosed to the 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. Is there anyone who still needs relief food?

Really.

Not only that, but there are also many people who need relief food, especially in the winter that just passed.

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

The world war has entered its fifth year. All participating countries are exhausted, their economies are in ruins, their agriculture is deserted, and social wealth has been greatly lost. The wealth accumulated by many ancient families for hundreds of years has been destroyed in one fell swoop, not to mention the people at the bottom who were already living in difficulty.

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 the war and have begun to stay away from revenge against Germany.

Needless to say, twenty years ago, five years ago, if you had said to a French person, "When will you retaliate?", that French person would probably scold you sternly.

No need to persuade now, most French people already understand this truth.

The Phyllis Foundation has charity projects in France, and it also has business activities. After all, charitable companies also need their own hematopoiesis capabilities, so that they can have greater strength to help others.

The Phyllis Foundation's most influential charity project in France is reemployment training for unemployed workers. This project is not only welcomed by French unemployed workers, but also receives strong support from the French government.

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.

Some people like it, and some people hate it.

Many people would never have imagined that the person who hated the reemployment training program the most in France was not De Gaulle or Reynard, but Felix Gouin and the Communist International led by him.

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

At the Elysée Palace in Paris, Leonard, who served as prime minister of the provisional government, welcomed his friend Edward Daladier.

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

Reynard served as Prime Minister after de Gaulle founded Free France, which made Edouard Daladier envious.

Returning to the Elysée Palace is also a return trip to the old place for Edouard Daladier. Everything is so familiar, but it feels strange to Edouard Daladier.

After all, the owner has changed.

"How's it going? Are you still used to it?" Leonard made a pun.

"Fortunately -" Edward Daladier said briefly.

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

In 1942, Edouard Daladier was accused of being responsible for France's defeat and later served prison terms in Germany and Austria.

After the Vienna Offensive broke out and the Allied forces invaded Austria, Edouard Daladier was released and had just returned to Paris.

"We all have to thank General Choltitz. If he hadn't been lenient, Paris would no longer exist." Leonard felt lucky for Paris, although this was a bit inappropriate.

"The victim not only does not hate the intruder, but also thanks the intruder. Is there anything weirder than this?" Edward Daladier was not grateful to Choltitz and hated all intruders.

"Are there not many weird things happening in recent years? This is Paris, anything can happen -" Leonard said with a playful expression, looking in the direction of the Parliament Building.

Edward Daladier burst into laughter.

Yes, this is Paris, and there is no shortage of weird things.

Among others, Mr. Felix Gouin seemed strange to Edward Daladier.

Felix Gouin was the leader of the French Comintern and an old acquaintance of Edouard Daladier. In September 1939, when Edouard Daladier was the French Minister of Defense, he declared the parties supported by the French Comintern illegal.

, and tried members of Congress who came from the Communist International.

The Communist International has a long history in France. The French Communist International’s strategy has always been to use strikes as the main means to force the French government and capitalists to give benefits to the workers in order to expand its influence among the French workers.

Now that the Communist International has become the most influential party in France, Leonard and Edouard Daladier are very curious.

When it did not gain power, the Communist International called on workers to go on strike at every turn, eager to carve up government assets and enterprises so that the per capita capitalists would be in trouble.

Now that the Communist International is about to become the ruling party, Leonard and Edouard Daladier want to see if Felix Guin will come forward and kill themselves first.

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

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

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

"Why did you and General de Gaulle allow this to happen?" Edouard Daladier really couldn't understand. It had only been two years since he had been in prison, but France had been turned upside down.

Paris has indeed changed a lot in the past few months, even more so than during the German rule.

During the German rule, Paris basically remained the same. Horses were still running, dancing was still dancing, and Paris was still the same extravagant and extravagant Paris.

The reason is that Germany needs a model to prove the correctness of Germany's launch of war. After all, the French stopped resisting in order to save face, and the Germans also need to show their generosity and kindness.

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

This only refers specifically to the political ecology of Paris.

"If you want to know the taste of pears, it's best to try it yourself." There are some things that Leonard can't control and can only guide them.

The Communist International has been calling for many years for workers to be the masters of the country, and French workers have long dreamed of it.

If you are not a householder, you don’t know how expensive firewood and rice are. It is a very difficult process to recognize yourself.

"So you will let them lead France into the abyss?" Edouard Daladier's hostility to the Comintern will not change.

"France is a democratic country. This is the choice of the French people. How can you say that?" Leonard pretended to be stupid. This is where he is smarter than Edouard Daladier.

Edward Daladier was a man with a clear distinction between likes and dislikes. Whatever he disliked, he would show it openly without leaving any room for it.

Compared with Édouard Daladier, Leonard is a safe and good old man, so Leonard can be prime minister for four or five years, while Édouard Daladier's shortest tenure as prime minister is only ten days.

Leonard is not joking. He is currently fully cooperating with the Comintern's strategies at best, but at worst, he is shoddy.

When Leonard and Edouard Daladier met, in the building 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.

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

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

Leonard also did not expect that Renault's biggest rival was not the southern African car companies, but the labor unions organized by the Communist International.

Half a year has passed since the recapture of Paris, but Renault has not resumed production. The union's demands are very harsh. While significantly increasing workers' wages, they also demand increased workers' benefits, and strictly implement the weekend system and eight-hour work system.

, in addition to the holidays prescribed by the French government, an additional 30 days of paid leave are required every year.

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

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

According to Leonard's usual habit, if workers go on strike, they should simply fire them and recruit another group of people, preferably from North Africa, as those North Africans are more obedient.

The Free French Army formed by de Gaulle had a strength of 1.2 million at its peak.

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

In this way, at least 1.1 million of the 1.2 million Free French Army must retire, otherwise the French government will go bankrupt sooner or later.

More than one million people are eating horses, which is an overwhelming burden for the current French government.

As for national security after major disarmament——

On this issue, the Southern African Federal Government has already promised that if France disarms, the Southern African Federal Government will ensure France's security.

"We work hard all day long in exchange for three meals a day and injuries, as well as your good life. We are in a dirty and noisy workshop, you are in a spacious and bright office, and the boss is on vacation at the beach, so we also have the right to obtain corporate development

The dividends you deserve, your happy life, were created by us with our hands!" Evan Henry, a Comintern representative from Marseille, spoke impassionedly. The expensive handmade suit he wore had nothing to do with the dirty and noisy workshop.

"Sir, the suit you are wearing is more expensive than mine, and your salary must be higher than mine, so your life should be happier than mine -" Randall, who had just graduated from the University of Paris, was very happy.

Helpless, he was a penniless poor student not long ago. It was only after he joined Renault that he had the money to buy this outfit.

During the war, many professionals from Paris fled abroad, and poor students like Randall had the opportunity to stand out.

Before the war, if Randall wanted to enter a law firm, he would have to start from the lowest level as an intern.

"Boy, you just walked out of school. I have been working for thirty years, so I should receive more salary than you." Henry said confidently, this is the role of seniority.

"Okay, everything you said is right -" Randall didn't want to quarrel with Henry. Solving the problem is the business: "-Our goal is to resume work as soon as possible. Only by creating value can there be profits to be distributed. Otherwise, we

You will gain nothing."

This is the crux of the matter.

France does not lack technology, nor resources, nor the market, but the contradiction between people cannot be reconciled.

"If you don't meet our demands, then we will not resume work, never!" Henry thought he had Randall's weak spot and refused to give in.

There is nothing wrong with this. If work is not resumed, there will be no profits. Then can Leonard still go to the beach for vacation?

It really works.

After all, Renard does not live off Renault's profits.

To put it bluntly, the profits that Renault can create are not even as high as those from Nyasaland Motors.

After all, agency costs are low.

"Okay, it's time to get off work, and that's all our work for today." Randall looked at the time and was polite.

Henry's expression was gloomy and furious.

In the past few months, the management team headed by Randall has been negotiating with the union in such a leisurely manner. If the talks collapse, there is no rush and they will start all over again tomorrow. Even if Henry curses, Randall is not in a hurry and shows that

Self-cultivation is very different from the factory management Henry has been exposed to before.

As a representative of the Communist International, Henry had many dealings with factory management in the past.

Most of the time, the union and the management will never fall out. There is a tacit understanding between the two parties. The union makes a request, the management cuts it off, and the union makes a concession. Both parties can accept it, and they think they are the winners, and everyone is happy.

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

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

The Paris Commune of that year originally evolved from strikes.

"If they never resume work, what will we do?" Oaks, who is a real worker, was worried as he watched Randall and his group leave happily while chatting and laughing, even discussing where to go for a drink later.

Whether the factory resumes operations or not is not important to Randall and Henry. They have Leonard and the Comintern to pay their salaries.

Workers like Oakes are the real victims.

"What can we do after we resume work? Who will we sell the tanks to?" Henry was also at a loss.

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

The Communist International did not want to pay this expense, nor could it afford it.
