Don't think that the governor is not a cadre. The Transvaal is the seat of Pretoria, the capital of southern Africa. By analogy, Hawley's position is bigger than that of the mayor of London. It is not easy to clean up the family power with white gloves.
Southern Africa has been autonomous for more than 20 years, and the Commonwealth has been established. However, many British people have not changed their mentality. When it comes to Southern Africa, they still have a suzerain mentality.
This is not surprising. Even in another 100 years, there will still be British people who think this way. In fact, they either don’t know, or they pretend to be ignorant and deliberately disgust people. There are many such people.
Holly was not joking. After the meeting, Nathaniel Company's gold quota was cancelled. Even if the gold was mined, it could not be sold to the outside world. It was obvious that it was forced to close down.
At this time, Nathaniel Company still wanted to resist. Tommy Brent thought that canceling the quota was exactly what he wanted. The Mining Alliance did not want to buy it, but there were many people who were willing to buy it. They shipped the gold to London and sold it at a higher price.
The crux of the problem lies here. The gold from the Rand Gold Mine is sold uniformly to external parties, and the gold mine does not have the right to sell gold.
If you want to sell it yourself, there is only one way to go, which is smuggling.
Do you still remember the first pot of gold that Rock started from? It was the smuggled gold that was confiscated. The current federal government has stricter control over gold than the previous colonial government. The smuggled gold of Nathaniel Company has not yet had time to reach Whale Bay.
It was seized as soon as it was shipped, the gold mine was immediately sealed, and all relevant responsible persons were brought to justice. This is the efficiency of southern Africa.
This kind of trivial matter certainly does not need to be handled by Rock, and Rock does not even know about it.
It's the end of the year, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year's Day, and the Spring Festival after New Year's Day. Roque is very busy during this time. In the current economic crisis, southern Africans also need to have fun in hardship.
In fact, it is not bitter. At least compared to the British and Americans, southern Africans are not bitter at all.
On Christmas Eve, businesses began to hype the concept of Golden Week. This year, the federal government of Southern Africa revised the holidays. The New Year holiday will be held for seven consecutive days from Christmas to New Year's Day, plus the five-day Spring Festival holiday 20 days later. In just one month, the statutory
The vacation reaches 12 days, plus two days of rest per week, so happy!
Take time off?
There is no such concept in southern Africa. The number of days off is the number of days off. The first day of the New Year's holiday is the weekend. If Saturday is included, the New Year's holiday is actually eight days in total.
The spring break is even more extreme. The Spring Festival falls on a Monday, plus Saturday and weekend last week, as well as Saturday and weekend this week, the spring break is a total of nine days, without any discount.
It should be noted that statutory holidays are all paid leave. Although there is only a basic salary, if the company requires overtime work, it must pay overtime pay equivalent to three times the salary in accordance with the regulations. The consequences of violating the regulations are serious. Many departments
Joint law enforcement may result in the company closing down.
With so many holidays, smart businessmen must take advantage of them. As soon as December has just entered, businesses have begun to hype up the Golden Week. Shopping malls have launched shopping discount seasons. Products that are usually expensive can only be purchased at 30% or even 40% off during the discount season.
take away.
Restaurants are offering huge discounts and launching family packages during the New Year holidays. For only one rand, a family can enjoy a sumptuous dinner and drinks are almost free.
Car dealers work hard and provide more discounts on the basis of financial policies, including gifts, maintenance, gas tickets, and even down payments in installments.
The sales of holiday-related products are rising all the time. When many people buy Christmas trees, they also don’t forget to buy some red lanterns, double-money knots and other decorations to decorate their homes. It doesn’t matter whether they fit in with the holiday atmosphere, as long as they are happy
It's over.
The toy dealer smiled from ear to ear. It is a tradition to give gifts to children at Christmas. There are many kinds of gifts. Plush toys are the most popular. The second most popular are toy cars, and then stationery. If you give them to children,
A gold-plated pen for middle school children can keep them happy all year long.
As Christmas approaches, more and more people come to Southern Africa for vacation. In New York and London in December, the weather is wet and cold, the skin is dry, and it is extremely unfriendly to humans. Coupled with the impact of the economic crisis, especially many people come to Southern Africa for vacation this year.
, which has also made real estate sales, which have always been deserted, extremely hot.
Pretoria Hot Springs Valley has become a well-known tourist destination. Most tourists who come to Pretoria will take hot spring bathing in the Hot Springs Valley as an indispensable experience.
There is a large newly built resort next to the Hot Spring Valley. If you walk into any sales department, a group of real estate agents will immediately surround you.
"Sir, our house belongs to a scholarly family, a wealthy family, and a century-old institution of higher learning under the shade of a tree——"
"Sir, our house has a huge green space with an unobstructed view. The mountains and rivers have boundaries, but my heart has no boundaries——"
"Sir, our house is a unique waterfront garden——"
This is all rhetoric. There may be only a kindergarten next to the scholarly family, and there may be a small grassy slope next to the huge green space. As for the out-of-print waterfront garden, small puddles are not so common, but they are not uncommon. Southern Africa is densely covered with water networks, so
As a gimmick, the waterfront garden probably won’t trick a few people.
The real estate industry in Southern Africa has always been sluggish. Last year, the total revenue of federal governments in Southern Africa was about 950 million rand, of which land tax, income tax and property tax totaled about 450 million rand.
When buying real estate in Southern Africa, the first house is exempt from tax, and the second house is levied with a property tax ranging from 1% to 3%. For a house worth 10,000 rand, the minimum standard is paid every year.
It only costs 100 rand. I really can’t afford it if I don’t have the strength.
As for rentals, the market is equally bleak.
There are only tens of millions of people in Southern Africa, less than 100 million. A big city has a population of more than 500,000. The federal government has vigorously promoted low-rent housing policies in order to provide homes for everyone. Graduates who have just stepped out of college, if they don’t want to
You can apply for public rental housing or single apartments in dormitories provided by your employer. The annual rent for these houses is only one or two rands, and it is not expensive to buy. Even college students who have just started working can completely pay the down payment after saving for one or two years.
Expecting to rent it out to make up for the property tax will cost you all your money.
The economic crisis has brought new opportunities to the real estate industry in Southern Africa.
Rich people in Europe and the United States have the habit of taking vacations. Many children from wealthy families want to travel around the world to broaden their horizons when they grow up. Southern Africa has become the new favorite of the tourism industry in recent years with its superior natural environment, low cost of living, and rich entertainment life.
.
Especially after the Commonwealth Games were held last year, in the second half of this year, there were as many as 450,000 tourists entering Southern Africa in the first three months.
Don’t think it’s small. In the current economic crisis, the spending power of those who are still able to travel cannot be compared to those who talk about budget travel all day long. On average, every tourist who comes to Southern Africa will spend 150 yuan in southern Africa.
Around rand, 450,000 people is 67.5 million, which is really good money.
In the city of Nyasalando, the Bruce couple came to southern Africa again. This time the Bruce couple's purpose was to settle down and immigrate to southern Africa.
Although Mr. Bruce's business is in New York, the United States, this does not affect the Bruces' yearning for southern Africa.
In the current economic crisis, Southern Africa has become the only bright spot among all the big countries in the world, and Nyasaland is the first choice for all new immigrants, especially around Lake Nyasa. It is now difficult to find a house. Compared with before the outbreak of the economic crisis,
House prices have more than doubled.
"The total area of this house is 275 square meters, with three floors, five bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a large balcony. It is not more than two kilometers away from Lake Niassa, and is next to the expressway connecting the airport and Los Angeles.
The transportation is convenient and the environment is beautiful. It is the best choice whether it is investment or residence." Compared with the sales in Hot Spring Valley, the real estate sales in Los Angeles are more professional. They will never talk about trains and the houses are really good, Bruce
The couple are very satisfied.
"What about education? Are there any outstanding schools around here?" Mr. Bruce attaches great importance to children's education. There are many famous schools in Los Angeles, but getting into one requires strength.
"The public education in Los Angeles is very complete, but if you want to say it is excellent, the distance is a bit far, but don't worry, the buses and subways are very convenient -" the salesperson told the truth, there is no such thing as school district housing in Los Angeles, and he wants to enter a prestigious school.
Very difficult.
Educational places in prestigious schools are always a scarce resource. There are many ways to get into a prestigious school. Apart from spending money, if you have a strong background and can get recommendations from people with enough weight, you can successfully enter a prestigious school.
Of course, if you don't have the above resources, you can only pass the exam based on your strength. This is the most effective way for the civilian class to cross class, and it is also the fairest way.
"It doesn't matter, I can take the children to and from school then and be a qualified housewife -" Mrs. Bruce has the courage to take on the responsibility, but it is actually not that troublesome. For the Bruce couple's family, they still have the ability to hire a driver.
"Okay, let's talk about the price now. How much does this house cost?" Mr. Bruce made up his mind. The last trip to Pretoria left a good impression on the Bruces.
After the economic crisis broke out, Mr. Bruce's business was inevitably severely affected. At this time, looking at Southern Africa, which has a unique economy, Mr. Bruce's feeling was completely different.
Not to mention how good the economy of southern Africa is, the economic strength of the United States is also very strong.
The key is that southern Africa has an efficient and responsible federal government. This is the key factor why the Bruces chose to immigrate to southern Africa.
"Fifteen thousand rand!" The price quoted for the real estate sales made Mr. Bruce feel pain. The price was too expensive.
But compared to Los Angeles, this price is not expensive at all. At the same price, you definitely can't buy such a townhouse in Manhattan, and it's almost the same in Brooklyn.
