Roque’s most important task now is to ensure the development momentum of southern Africa on the existing basis.
As long as Southern Africa does not have major problems, regardless of whether there will be World War II, Southern Africa will be one of the most powerful countries in the world in another twenty years.
Of course, if you are more confident, "one" can also be removed.
The foundation of Southern Africa is really too strong. The only constraint on Southern Africa is population. Once this problem is solved, no one can stop Southern Africa.
This was not so obvious before the outbreak of the Great Depression. After the outbreak of the Great Depression, Southern Africa's strong economic development momentum fully proved the prospects of Southern Africa.
This is largely due to the public education system that started long ago in southern Africa.
For a country, the population base is very important, and the level of education is also very important.
The importance of education level can be seen by looking at India. At least 200 million of the 300 million Indians are Sudras and untouchable Dalits. The highest-status Brahmins only account for 1 to 2 percent of the country's total population.
, these are the Indians recognized by the British.
If according to this standard, the number of people who can be called "people" in India is probably between 3 million and 6 million.
There is no caste system in Southern Africa. Those who can be accepted in Southern Africa are Southern Africans and are eligible for compulsory education.
The start of compulsory education in Southern Africa was also very difficult. For a poor country, it took great courage to focus its limited resources on the education of its citizens. Fortunately, at that stage, the number of people in Southern Africa was relatively small, and the federal government provided huge resources.
I have the courage to throw money at it and create a public education system out of nowhere.
The benefits are of course obvious.
Nothing is achieved overnight. It takes ten years to cultivate trees and a hundred years to cultivate people. Compulsory education also needs a process to reflect its value.
In the early days, the level of compulsory education in southern Africa was not high. The high-level private schools were represented by Ziwei Public School and Locke Public School. The situation really changed after the establishment of Nyasaland University and the establishment of Nyasaland University.
With the graduates of "mass manufacturing" from Lanzhou University, the public education system in southern Africa has gradually improved.
The main thing is education level.
When the federal government was established, several departments shared the same secretary, and some ministers had never even read a book. It would be too demanding to expect them to change their ways.
Even geniuses like Nikola Tesla need to receive a complete modern education to realize their potential. For most people, receiving education is the most convenient and effective way to change their lives and cross social classes.
After nearly 30 years of persistence, the results of education are obvious. The most significant areas are in government agencies and scientific research departments. In the past, the federal governments at all levels in Southern Africa, most of the senior employees came from the elite class who had received European education.
There is nothing we can do about it. There are no high-level institutions of higher learning in southern Africa. Ordinary people in southern Africa cannot study if they want to.
In recent years, in the federal governments of Southern Africa at all levels, more and more talents have been trained in Southern Africa, and the same is true in scientific research institutions. When Rudolf Diesel came to Southern Africa, he was qualified to work for Rudolf Diesel.
There were only a few people there. By the time Nikola Tesla came to Southern Africa, Southern Africa could already produce a thick pile of personnel information for Nikola Tesla to choose from.
Specific to the real world, as far as cars are concerned, the cars first manufactured in Southern Africa actually had frequent problems. So serious that when drivers learn driving skills, maintenance is an important part. Even the Lord's car may break down at any time and be towed.
It might also break down halfway.
Fortunately, the overall performance of the cars at that time was not good, but Lord Cars finally managed to carve out a niche by relying on luxury and luxury, and it is still the most popular high-end car brand among the rich.
At this time, when drivers learn driving skills, they no longer need to learn maintenance. Let alone high-end Lord cars, even for popular civilian cars, the failure rate has been reduced to an acceptable level.
The same is true in other aspects. Compulsory education has a significant effect on improving the overall quality of the people. For the first generation of Southern Africans, survival is the main goal. By the second generation, they have begun to improve their living standards. Now the third generation of Southern Africans
People are receiving education in schools, and in ten years, they will explode collectively.
Nearly 20 million people are receiving education in schools in Southern Africa. As time goes by, Southern Africa's advantages will become greater and greater.
"So the task of our generation has actually been completed. We have laid a pretty good foundation for you. In the future, I hope you can build a stronger, richer, and more desirable Southern Africa on this basis.
"Roque is still very modest. Not only is he pretty good, if he gets a perfect score of 100, he can get at least 95.
The reason why I deducted five points is because I am afraid that Roque will be proud. Whether he is good or not depends entirely on the support of his peers. When compared horizontally with Hoover, Ramsey Macdonald, and Gaston Doumergue at the same time, ninety-five points is still less.
.
"No matter how hard our generation works, we can never surpass the great achievements of your generation." Alvin's admiration for Rock is undisguised. This is not just the kind of admiration a child has for his father.
This is actually an understatement. Rock and his generation have indeed done a good job, but they are limited by the foundation of southern Africa. In fact, southern Africa still has potential that can be tapped. For example, it can challenge the status of the British Empire. For example, it can be like a hundred years.
In the past, Britain and France also tried to build the framework structure of the future world, such as the stars, the sea, etc.
Anyway, there is still a lot that can be done.
After all, the stars and the sea are far away. You can look up at the stars occasionally, but you still have to walk step by step on the road under your feet.
Rock has now finally realized the pain of "mascot". After leaving the Commonwealth, Rock's work has not changed much. He has two or three meetings every day. The whole process is almost silent, and he only needs to make a summary at the end.
The contents of the speeches were all written in advance, and there were not many opportunities for free expression.
After all, you have a high position and a casual word may affect the interests of tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of people, so you must be careful with what you say.
To put it bluntly, when the ministers were making a report, if Roque coughed casually even if his throat was a little itchy, the ministers would have to think about whether Roque was dissatisfied with his report. In this case, it is better not to do so casually.
The cough is good.
It is said that if Roque coughs, the minister who is giving the report will definitely be nervous. Roque also has a medical team now. If the Prime Minister has a physical problem, then the medical team will definitely be responsible. After the meeting, there may be expert consultations and so on.
trouble.
Except for two or three meetings a day, Rock can basically arrange the rest of his time freely. However, there is not much that Rock can do now. For the staff of the Palace of Justice, it is best for Rock not to even go out of the Palace of Justice.
, otherwise it will be a waste of time and energy.
The security of the Palace of Justice is quite reliable. The Secret Service, which is responsible for the security of the Palace of Justice, has officially established more than 800 people. Each one of them is a carefully selected Secret Service officer. Li Yan, a butcher of 12 apartments in two minutes, in the Secret Service
In fact, the number of bureaus is not high. In the entire Secret Service, there are enough snipers who killed more than 100 enemies during the world wars to form a squad.
Every time Rock travels now, his fleet consists of at least 12 cars and nearly a hundred people. There are fewer and fewer people who are qualified to get along with Rock like friends. Henry is too busy and often travels around the world.
, in the whole of Pretoria, except for Ade, Philip, and Kitchener, only the old brothers who had followed Luo Ke in the southern and northern wars were left.
Most of these old brothers are actually still working. They can be found all over the world. Of course, there must be some who have retired for various reasons. There are also many who have settled in Pretoria. Lu Si’s farm is on the outskirts of Pretoria.
.
Under Roque, Lu Si's importance seems not to be counted among the brothers Anton and Gaude, but from the perspective of loyalty, no one can match Lu Si.
During the Second Boer War, Lu Si lost an eye and a leg in combat. Later, Lu Si participated in the formation of Umbrella and Bullard, and later worked in the Special Investigation Section of the Ministry of Defense.
Lu Si is older than Roque. He retired the year before last and returned to the farm to live in seclusion.
Following Luo Ke in the southern and northern wars for decades, Lu Si also had strong strength. In his early years, he bought a farm with an area of about 1,500 acres on the outskirts of Pretoria. After decades of operation, the area now exceeds 3,000 acres.
3,000 acres, converted to 18,210 acres, this area is not excessive. During the Boer rule, there were many farms of tens of thousands of acres in the Transvaal, and there are many now. Rock himself is the largest landowner in the Transvaal.
Although the area is not exaggerated, the geographical location is good. Lu Si’s farm is between Pretoria and Hot Springs Valley. Hot Springs Valley has now become a tourist attraction in Pretoria, connecting Pretoria and Hot Springs.
The road to the valley passes through the middle of Lu Si's farm. Depending on this road, as long as Lu Si and his descendants do not commit suicide, they will probably be able to live comfortably until the end of the world.
Prosperity and wealth rarely last long, and having food and clothing without worries is something that many people will never achieve in their lifetime. In this sense, it is actually what is often called financial freedom.
Lu Si’s retirement life is very fulfilling. It is said that the farm of more than 10,000 acres is enough for Lu Si. You may not believe it, but Lu Si’s biggest hobby now is growing vegetables, growing various vegetables, and all kinds of vegetables.
Lu Si's favorite dishes can be sent directly to the Palace of Justice. Every morning, Lu Si would go to the vegetable shed to pick the freshest vegetables and ask his grandson to drive them to the Palace of Justice.
It doesn't matter whether I can see Rock or not.
It doesn't even matter whether Rock eats it or not.
The key is this intention, even if fighting and killing are no longer enough, you can still express your feelings in this way.
Although in the eyes of many people, this order is insignificant.
