Chapter 751: Everyone must rebel against the British
In 1923, although the economy began to recover, it had not yet returned to the level of 1913.
Europeans, who have suffered successive world wars and economic crises, are physically and mentally exhausted. Many people have become more devout in their beliefs, and churches have become a refuge for their souls.
At this time, a "pagan" suddenly claimed to blow up the tomb of God. Although this was unlikely, it still aroused people's anger.
The headquarters of the Suez Canal Company is located in King's Road, Chelsea, London. The day after The Times exposed William's inappropriate words and deeds, hundreds of Christians gathered in front of the headquarter of the Canal Company, waving crosses in their hands in order. chants calling for "infidels" to get out of London.
The London police who received the call arrived at the scene and found that reporters were conducting interviews at the scene. The believers did not attack the canal company. Therefore, the police did not disperse the crowd but stayed at the scene to prevent the situation from further intensifying.
The next day almost all newspapers in London reported on William's inappropriate words and deeds, and critics also came out and publicly accused the canal company of its greedy behavior.
Pharaoh’s tomb is the heritage of all mankind.
For its own selfish interests, the canal company went ahead with the project even at the expense of blowing up the tombs. This will be a loss for all mankind.
On the third day, French and Russian newspapers also followed suit.
French newspapers were quite restrained and only targeted William's remarks without amplifying them.
Russian newspapers were unscrupulous. The "Daily Constantinople" not only reported the actions of the canal company, but also told the history of the Hebrews in detail.
Many Russians learned that Judas, who betrayed Jesus, was a Hebrew through the reports of the Constantinople Daily.
It is through this report that we understand why the Hebrews have been wandering for thousands of years.
To sum up the history of the Hebrews, it can only be described as self-inflicted.
If the "Constantinople Daily News" report only restored the true face of the Hebrews, the "Berlin Daily News" follow-up report completely detonated Germany.
Just like the German army lost World War I in a muddle, ordinary Germans don’t know why the price of bread in Berlin has skyrocketed, nor why wealthy Hebrew merchants would rather destroy expired food than sell it to the poor at a discount. .
Now there is an answer to all this.
On July 19, George finally saw the report about the beer hall in the newspaper.
The "Daily Constantinople" report on the beer hall was not detailed. It only had a piece of news about the size of a piece of tofu, saying that the Berlin police crushed an unsuccessful riot. The incident resulted in a total of 19 deaths. Beard's name wasn't even in the newspapers.
At the moment in 1923, there was simply too much news of this kind, happening every day without causing any waves at all.
William's inappropriate words and deeds are different.
A full month has passed since William was about to blow up the Tomb of God, and not even the British Crown Prince's romantic affair could steal William's limelight.
Affected by William, the stock price of the Canal Company fell one after another, and the issuance of bonds also did not go smoothly. No one paid attention to the sale at a 50% discount.
On July 25, the canal expansion project was suspended again due to exhaustion of funds.
The media's unusual attention to William and the canal company's anomalies finally aroused the Rothschild family's vigilance.
Although William's words were excessive, they were obviously unintentional words. They were more about venting emotions and were not directed at anyone.
Rothschild had hoped that over time, people would forget about it.
Unexpectedly, a month has passed, and the number of people gathering in front of the canal company to protest has not only not decreased, but has increased in number.
Don’t these people need to go to work?
Or is this their job?
Under heavy pressure, William made another mistake.
On July 29, an out-of-control car drove into a crowd, killing 4 people and injuring 12 others.
After the driver was arrested, he admitted that he was ordered by William. On the 30th, William was taken away from the canal company headquarters by the London police.
While the canal company has suffered repeated accidents, the Egyptian government has become increasingly tough on the canal.
If writing the recovery of the canal into the constitution was just Fuad's temptation, then after receiving the support of Nicholas Jr., Egypt finally saw the possibility of recovering the canal.
In June of this year, angry Egyptian people once again poured into the canal zone, demanding the withdrawal of British troops.
The British army learned their lesson this time and did not fire.
Not only did this fail to offset the anger of the Egyptians, but it exposed the weak nature of the British army.
On August 2, Nasser once again asked the British troops to withdraw and hand over the Suez Canal to the Egyptian government.
Since April last year, Egypt has demanded the withdrawal of British troops at every general meeting.
Belfour ignored Nasser's request, and representatives from other countries did not take it seriously.
This time Nasser's voice was particularly loud because he was supported by Nicholas the Younger and Clemenceau.
Little Nicholas has always rebelled against the British, and the representatives are used to it.
The French, who always wear the same pants as the British, also began to support the Egyptians, which made many people feel unusual for the first time.
"Since Britain has no intention of occupying the Suez Canal, what is the point of garrisoning troops in the canal zone?"
Clemenceau's dislike of the British reached its peak.
After the closure of the Suez Canal, the cost of merchant ships between France and its Asian colonies doubled due to detouring around Africa.
“The expansion project is progressing slowly. If London is not willing to bear the cost, it might as well give the opportunity to those who are willing to take the responsibility.”
Prince Antonio from Italy added fuel to the fire. Italy also suffered heavy losses due to the closure of the canal.
"The canal project is progressing slowly. The responsibility does not lie with London, but with someone else."
Belfor glared at Little Nicholas.
Little Nicholas was so happy that he was heartless.
When the canal was first closed, people thought that Russia would be the most affected.
Now, as time goes by, people are surprised to find that not only are Russia's interests not damaged, but Russia has actually benefited as countries around the Mediterranean have increased their dependence on Russia.
But if it is believed that Russia is causing the obstruction based on this, there is obviously a lack of evidence.
"Indeed, the British government is definitely not responsible. The British army is stationed in Egypt not to protect British interests, but to protect the interests of certain British families - tsk tsk, how pitiful-"
Little Nicholas’s pretentiousness is disgusting.
"Isn't it Russia? Who do you have the right to laugh at?"
Belfort accidentally fell into the trap of little Nicholas.
"In your words, Russia is a barbaric country. We are all barbarians. You are civilized people. How can civilized people be the same as barbarians!"
Little Nicholas If you let Belfort collapse, you shouldn't pay attention to this guy.
