Roque once tried his best to hide the strength of the Chinese in Southern Africa. Before the establishment of the Southern African federal government, the population data reported by Nyasaland never exceeded 500,000, just for fear of attracting the attention of some people.
Over the years, the Chinese in Southern Africa have been low-key and reserved, and have devoted themselves to business. From the initial few dozen policemen in Cape Town, they have grown to nearly 30 million people now. Chinese are present in all states in Southern Africa, except Cape State and Oran.
In addition to the small number of Chinese in the state, the number of Chinese in other states has an absolute advantage. It is time to put aside past concerns and truly make our own voices heard.
What makes Rock happy is that the Chinese in Southern Africa are not only outstanding in agriculture, but also have superior advantages in industry, education, medical care, military and other aspects. Now more and more Chinese are entering the federal government.
Even the Speaker of the Congress of Southern Africa is a Chinese person in government jobs at all levels; in major enterprises in Southern Africa, Chinese have also emerged and are more adaptable to the development of Southern Africa than white people; in Southern African universities represented by the University of Nyasaland, Chinese students
They account for more than 80% of the students; even in the army, the proportion of Chinese soldiers is getting higher and higher.
All these prove that the status of the Chinese in Southern Africa is constantly improving. Celebrating traditional Chinese festivals is just a matter of course. The criticism of some people cannot stop the rise of the Chinese in Southern Africa.
"Locke, if it's appropriate, I would like to invite you to Cape Town for the Lantern Festival. Let's go to Oak Town to celebrate with the Chinese people in Oak Town." Stoudemire took the initiative to invite Rock. If Rock can appear with Stoudemire in Oak Town,
Town, then it will definitely be a huge improvement to Stoudemire's prestige.
"Sorry Cecil, I didn't go back to Los Angeles even during the Spring Festival, so I will definitely go back to Los Angeles for the Lantern Festival." Roque was also helpless. He had already missed the Spring Festival celebrations, and he would definitely go back to Nyasaland for the Lantern Festival.
.
"That's a pity, but it doesn't matter. After all, there are still Dragon Boat Festival and Double Ninth Festival -" Xiao Si now also has a deep understanding of Chinese culture. Since celebrations are held during the Spring Festival, every subsequent Chinese traditional festival will be celebrated by the Chinese in Southern Africa.
Won't miss it.
After hanging up the phone, Rock still wanted to see Phillip.
Philip also expressed concern about the celebrations in Nyasaland, but unlike Stoudemire, Philip was more worried about whether the celebrations by the Chinese in Nyasaland would have an impact on the lives of white people in Nyasaland.
"What, why do you think so?" Rock was surprised. When white people celebrated Christmas and Valentine's Day, they didn't consider the mood of the Chinese. So why should the Chinese now consider the mood of the white people when celebrating traditional festivals?
What's more, the celebration of traditional festivals by Chinese people does not have a negative impact on white people. On the contrary, many white people also experience the charm of the Spring Festival and participate in it enthusiastically.
Nyasaland celebrates the Spring Festival. Government agencies and enterprises have given three days of paid leave. This paid leave can be enjoyed by both whites and Chinese.
During the celebration, many stores in Los Angeles hold discounts, with 50% off or 40% off. Some beer bar owners even open their doors to drink for free. White people in Los Angeles have not refused these benefits, and many white people have even purchased Spring Festival couplets.
Celebrate the Spring Festival with lanterns and Chinese people in Los Angeles.
Generally speaking, the Chinese and whites in Nyasaland get along very harmoniously. The Chinese, who have an absolute majority in numbers, do not reject the whites or any other excessive behavior. The whites are also happy to get along with the Chinese. Los Angeles itself also has a British community and a German community.
However, the Chinese community far exceeds the British and German communities in terms of public security and health standards. This has led to many British and Germans living in Los Angeles to prefer to live in the Chinese community rather than go to the British community.
The American community or the German community gather together to keep warm.
It is true that there is no such thing as grouping together to keep warm in Los Angeles. Chinese Americans believe in being kind to others, and distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. Most Chinese are very friendly and will not attack white people because of their skin color.
"Locke, don't be angry. I heard some noises that are not good for Nyasaland." Philip was in a dilemma, and it was not convenient for him to say some things.
"Oh, what's the sound? The Chinese celebrate traditional festivals, which touches some people's sensitive self-esteem? If anyone has any objections, let him come to me directly, and I will give him a reasonable explanation." Luo Ke's face was cold and his voice was even colder.
There are always some people who are unwilling to face reality. For such people, just let them die.
It’s not that Roque is indifferent. Anyone with a little bit of sense knows that the current situation in southern Africa cannot be separated from the contribution of the Chinese. Whites and Africans alone may never be able to develop to this level.
Even so, there are still white people who are stubborn and still view the current southern Africa with the colonial mentality.
Such people will be eliminated sooner or later. They had better leave Southern Africa before Roque becomes prime minister, otherwise they will wait until Roque becomes prime minister, haha.
"Don't be impulsive Locke, why should we celebrate the Spring Festival? Isn't it good to just do it like before?" Philip also had a headache. He was now Chinese on one side and white on the other. He wanted to balance the two bowls of water, but unfortunately he lacked the ability.
"Why can't we celebrate the Spring Festival? Are the Chinese in Southern Africa not human beings? White people have the right to celebrate Christmas, and the Chinese naturally have the right to celebrate the Spring Festival. If according to some people's theories, the Chinese in Southern Africa now make up the majority, right?
Can all white people be deported?" Rock said, you're welcome. Deportation is a frivolous matter. According to the white people's logic, killing them all is the right way to go.
Of course, Roque would not do this. When the Chinese immigrated to Southern Africa, Southern Africa did not refuse. Not only did it open its arms to the Chinese, but it also provided a series of benefits such as reimbursement of ship tickets and distribution of farms.
——————
No matter what the starting point of the colonial government in southern Africa was at that time, Rock was still grateful for southern Africa. After all, the white people Kan Huaren disliked were in the minority, and most white people in southern Africa were pretty good.
This situation is limited to southern Africa and is not included in other regions.
"Locke, you can't think like that. You will definitely become the Prime Minister of Southern Africa in the future. If you do this, a third war may break out in Southern Africa. This will be a huge disaster for all of us." Philip.
His heart trembled, Roque often said half-truths and half-falsities, and Philip didn't know which words were true and which words were false.
"Don't worry, I will never do that unless it is absolutely necessary." Roque knew what Phillip was worried about.
Like Nyasaland, Rhodesia also has a majority Chinese population.
At the end of the Boer War, the total number of white people in Rhodesia was less than 20,000. Later, it was precisely because of Rock's desperate immigration that the Rhodesian gold mines had enough workers, and the farms around Johannesburg also gradually had
vitality.
It has been twenty years since the first batch of Chinese came to Rhodesia. These Chinese have taken root in southern Africa and thrived. Now the third generation of Chinese has been born. Rhodesia has a population of nearly 4 million, more than two-thirds of it.
They are all Chinese.
As the Chinese in Nyasaland celebrate the Spring Festival, the Chinese in Rhodesia naturally have similar needs.
The Rhodesian state government has received news that during the Lantern Festival in the near future, the Rhodesian Chinese will hold a grand celebration with the Nyasaland Chinese. Ziwei City has now begun to make a 30-meter-high lantern to prepare for the Lantern Festival.
Then I will go to Pretoria to participate in the parade.
Of course, Pretoria is not far behind. Dozens of companies, led by Ziwei Hospital and Ziwei Public School, decided to hold a lantern festival on the ten-kilometer-long Milner Street between the train station and the Palace of Justice on the night of the Lantern Festival.
During the celebration, the streets will be lined with lanterns. Citizens can not only taste traditional snacks, but also enjoy the lanterns, guess lantern riddles, and participate in various entertainment activities. This is much more interesting than going to church to worship.
"Okay, I believe you -" Philip chose to trust Rock, and then the conversation changed, catching Rock off guard: "-What's going on with the arms purchase contract between Nyasaland Aviation and the Royal Air Force?"
Just two days ago, The Sun published a front-page headline exposing the arms procurement corruption case jointly created by Nyasaland Airlines and Royal Air Force Deputy Minister Philip Sassoon.
The editor of "The Sun" broke the news in a shocking tone that there was something wrong with the arms purchase contract signed between Nyasaland Air and Royal Air Force Deputy Minister Philippe Sassoon. Nyasaland was shoddy, asking for exorbitant prices, and bribing relevant officials.
and other major issues.
Philip Sassoon's problem is that he is too greedy. About 4 million pounds in the contract he signed with Nyasaland Airlines has gone missing. The editor of "The Sun" claimed that Philip Sassoon made profits through this arms purchase.
More than one million pounds. If the truth is revealed, this will be the most serious fraud case in the history of the British Empire.
"What?" Rock looked confused and seemed to know nothing.
"You don't know?" Philip didn't believe that Roark didn't know.
Rock spread his hands, this kind of thing must not be admitted, otherwise no one will dare to do business with Nyasaland Airlines in the future.
Probably Philip Roque will take the initiative to report Philip Sassoon.
How is it possible? Everyone knows this trick in military procurement. Cutting off people's financial resources is like killing their parents. If Rock really exposes Philip Sassoon, even if Rock can put Philip Sassoon to death, then who will dare to follow him in the future?
Doing business with Nyasaland Airlines?
"Get ready. There will be an investigation team coming from London in a few days. It was jointly established by Congress and His Majesty the King's government. Did Nyasaland Air renovate the aircraft that were about to be phased out and sell them to the Royal Air Force?" Philip looked helpless.
, he felt that Rock was too careless, so he gave London the excuse.
"It's absolutely impossible for Nyasaland Airlines to do that, and the Ministry of National Defense will never allow it." Roque said resolutely, you said a handle is a handle?
not that simple.
ps: Oops, I’m sorry for this chapter number if I don’t waste it. Brothers, I love you——
