238 It is better to seek help from others than from yourself (first update on debt repayment)
In Nyasaland’s banquets, the food selection has always been a combination of East and West.
There are chefs who prepare a variety of food on site for guests, including ice cream and snacks of various flavors. There are also chefs who specialize in barbecue and unique Nyasaland-style grilled fish.
The grilled fish uses small whitebait, a specialty of Lake Nyasa. This fish has fresh and tender meat and is rich in nutrients. It can be grilled and eaten directly after being fished out of the lake. This small fish is used in the canned fish produced in Xiaosi factory.
The sales of whitebait are very good and have now been sold to Europe.
In this regard, Rock is still keeping a low profile. Many good things in Nyasaland, such as improved general-purpose machine guns and 40mm rapid-fire cannons, as well as tractors and trucks, are not sold to outsiders now. Otherwise, Rock wants to sell Niasaland to the outside world.
It is not difficult to sell Asalan's products to Europe.
Stoudemire has no such scruples. When he sells the cans to Nyasaland, Stoudemire only charges a cost price. Only when he sells them to Europe can he really make money.
In order to reduce costs, Stoudemire, a profiteer, has now set up a food laboratory to study the taste of canned food and the ratio of ingredients. This is most obvious to the officers and soldiers of the Northern Rhodesia Division. The meat in luncheon meat is becoming more and more important.
When I opened the lid, there was a strong smell of starch, and the oil used was different from the previous oil. Xiaosi was scolded a lot for this.
That is to say, there are many rivers and lakes in Nyasaland, so Nyasaland people are becoming more and more picky. Almost no one eats luncheon meat in Nyasaland. Outside of Nyasaland, even for many European families
, luncheon meat is a rare delicacy.
In this era, people were still short of oil and water, and so were ordinary European families. The real rich were the aristocrats and businessmen, and even ordinary government employees could barely get by.
No matter at any time, the dividends of social development will not benefit everyone.
The same is true for Nyasaland. Nowadays, Nyasaland is not shy in order to attract the population. As long as there are Chinese who are willing to immigrate to Nyasaland, Nyasaland will welcome them with open arms.
But immigrating to Nyasaland does not mean once and for all. Those who are idle and indolent are also not welcome in Nyasaland. Basically every immigrant ship that comes to Nyasaland must bring them with them when they return.
There were dozens of Chinese who were deported back to the Qing Dynasty. Many of them didn't realize what they missed. It didn't matter if they were deported. Some people could realize it, but they also lost their opportunities. Nyasaland has never been good in this regard.
Not tolerant.
Xiaosi is very interested in the food in Nyasaland. Every time he comes to Nyasaland, Xiaosi always makes new discoveries. He now employs a Chinese chef at home, and his pursuit of delicious food will never end.
Rock is a never-ending pursuit of industry.
"Quality! Quality is the lifeline of the product. It cannot be ignored at any time. We would rather reduce the output and ensure the quality of the product. In addition to quality, it is performance. The current diesel engine is 50 horsepower, so the next step is to study 80, 100, or even
It is a 200-horsepower engine. European engine manufacturers are also making progress. New technologies appear almost every day. If we want to maintain our advantage, we must never end the pursuit of performance and quality." Roque has high requirements, Rudolf said.
·Although Diesel and Duncan both looked embarrassed, they still nodded.
This is where Rock's sense of urgency comes from. Stoudemire and Henry often say that they don't know why Rock is so anxious and wish he could become fat in one bite. That's because Stoudemire and Henry don't understand that in the next few decades, the world will
How fast will it develop?
"There is no rush to make money, at least not now. In two years, we will sell our products to Europe. At this stage, we have to cultivate our internal skills, have more skilled workers, better product quality, and more advanced
In terms of performance, we must ensure that we establish an advantage over similar products in Europe, so that we can really open up product sales." Luo Ke still reassured that when tractors and trucks were just successfully developed, many people hoped to sell the products to Europe. Luo Ke
Dolph Diesel showed the most urgency.
News is still circulating in Europe that Rudolf Diesel has passed away. Many people don’t know that Rudolf Diesel is in Nyasaland, so Rudolf Diesel really wants to sell tractors and trucks.
Going to Europe is not only for profit, but also for the honor of Rudolf Diesel.
For officials like Duncan, they also hope to sell products to Europe.
Nyasaland is like a monster now. Everyone who knows the truth is marveling at the speed of Nyasaland's development. However, Rock has not promoted Nyasaland's idea and wants to kill Nyasaland.
Holding it in your arms was not in line with the practice of most colonies at this time.
In order to attract immigrants, almost all the colonies around the world are promoting it in a high-profile manner. According to officials, all the colonies around the world are paradises, and immigrant colonies will instantly become winners in life. Reimbursement of immigration expenses and other things are routine operations. The "Peace Agreement" has just been
When signing the contract, the Transvaal government even promised that as long as immigrants come to the Transvaal, the Transvaal government will reimburse the immigration expenses and also provide money and land. Even so, no one is willing to come to the Transvaal.
watt.
During this period, the first choice for European immigrants was the Americas, and the second choice was North Africa. Only those who were desperate would choose southern Africa, such as those Jews who were ostracized all over the world.
"Why wait until two years later?" Stoudemire's political sense is indeed insensitive. Almost everyone is aware of such an obvious problem, so Stoudemire is still confused now.
Historically, Stoudemire was indeed confused. Otherwise, Rhodesia would not have been able to achieve self-government in South Africa. Rhodesia looked on with cold eyes. As a result, the South African Company ceased to exist.
"The Boers are lobbying in London, hoping that Orange will implement a democratic representative system as soon as possible." Rock clicked, and Stoudemire immediately understood.
Not having a keen sense of politics does not mean that Xiaosi is stupid. In the past two years, Rock has been instilling in Xiaosi the benefits of autonomy. Xiaosi is also looking forward to the potential that will be unleashed once the four colonies in southern Africa are autonomous together.
.
He doesn't know how much potential Cape, Natal and Orange have. The potential of the Transvaal has now been released more than half. He is full of confidence in Rhodesia and Nyasaland. Nyasaland's
Many good things are hidden away. If Rock is willing to take them out, he can make a big splash now.
But in that case, Nyasaland will definitely attract attention. Although the British government now knows that Nyasaland has developed tractors and trucks, the British government will not pay much attention to new things that have not been tested by the market.
There are too many new things for the British government to pay attention to.
Early the next morning, Rock and Stoudemire took a train to Port Edward together. Relatively speaking, the space on the train was more private, so Rock could talk freely.
"If Orange starts to implement the democratic representative system, then the Transvaal will definitely implement it. At that time, we can work together to promote the establishment of the Union of South Africa. Rhodesia and Nyasaland can take this opportunity to merge into the Union of South Africa.
And then completely get rid of the local control. The officials in London now think that we are a burden. We don’t want to be dictated by others. We all get what we need." Rock had this plan for a long time, but it was a pity that he and Ade
, Phillip and the others couldn't say it directly. Stoudemire was an anomaly, so Roque could open his heart.
Although Stoudemire is a pure British, his attitude towards the British government is very disgusting.
Everything stems from the discord between the British government and Cecil Rhodes. In order to restrict Cecil Rhodes, Queen Victoria did not grant Cecil Rhodes a knighthood, but in order to reward Cecil Rhodes
Due to the achievements of Lord Rhodes, Queen Victoria entrusted the management of Rhodesia to the South African Company. This has laid hidden dangers for the current relationship between Rhodesia and the British government. There are also many untold stories between the royal family and the government.
The British like to dig holes, and it is really ingrained in their bones. They are not only good at digging holes for outsiders, but also for their own people.
"Autonomy is a dream for you, but the future for me is uncertain. At least after Rhodesia becomes autonomous, it will be more difficult to get immigrants from the mainland." Stoudemire also has many things to consider. Population has always been a constraint on the development of southern Africa.
the biggest factor.
"It's not easy to get immigrants from the mainland now!" Roque hit the nail on the head. Most of the white immigrants in Rhodesia come from continental European countries, and very few come from the UK.
Relatively speaking, although southern Africa is useless to the British government, it is still somewhat attractive to immigrants from continental European countries. These days, all Indians in the United States are almost killed by the Americans. The bottom people in Europe,
It's also difficult to get ahead after arriving in the United States.
Africa is different. Even though European countries have been colonizing Africa for hundreds of years, the main population in Africa is still Africans, and the number of white people is still limited. This means that those at the bottom who cannot survive in Europe have transformed themselves in Africa.
You will become a "superior" who is superior to others, which is still very attractive to many people at the bottom who have no confidence in themselves and do not have much ability.
Of course, this situation is just propaganda carried out by the colonial government to attract immigrants. The specific situation is still different from the propaganda. People like Cecil Rhodes came to southern Africa with nothing in their pockets, but within a few years they
Becoming millionaires, more gold diggers found nothing in the Transvaal, and their lives were similar to those in Europe, with no fundamental difference.
So whether you can succeed or not depends on yourself.
