265 The first and fifteenth day of the lunar month (eighth update on debt repayment)
If this is the case, then it may not dissatisfy Kevin Trevicorn who came to arrest people, because the Johannesburg Police Department is famous for being excessive in this regard. This kind of differential treatment caused an uproar a long time ago. In the end,
Still nothing happened.
What really dissatisfied Kevin Trevicorn was that when he rushed to the police station, he found some Liberal Party propaganda staff playing football with the white police team.
The football team of the Johannesburg Police Department is now also famous. During the Transvaal Republic, the favorite sport of Johannesburg people was horse racing. Now football has replaced horse racing and has become the favorite sport of Johannesburg people.
As for the police station's football team, every weekend, the police station's football team holds football matches at the police station's sports ground.
At first, only police officers from the police station and their families came to watch the game. Later, more and more people watched the game. The police department simply renovated the sports ground, separated the police station and the sports ground, and opened it on weekends.
Anyone can go to the sports ground to watch the game.
So every weekend, the sports ground is very lively. Not only the police station, but also several units of the city government have organized football teams, and they have a lot of fun playing with each other.
Kevin Trevicorn knew that football was very popular in Johannesburg, but members of the Liberal Party who were supposed to be imprisoned in the detention center played football with prison guards, which Kevin Trevicorn could not accept in any case.
"No, you read it wrong. Those Liberals playing football did not participate in the fight. Those police officers were also on their break. They can freely use their own time and no one has the right to interfere." Harry Spencer said patiently.
Explain that as the police chief, he doesn't come to work for a long time. Occasionally, he encounters this kind of thing when he is on duty. He must have seen a black cat on the way out.
"Mr. Chief, our Chairman Arnold and Vice Chairman Henry are very angry about the unfair treatment of members of our National Party. Your police department must give our National Party an explanation!" Kevin Trevicorn felt that Harry Si
Spencer was just perfunctory, because Harry Spencer didn't investigate at all, he didn't even ask.
"Give your National Party an explanation?" Harry Spencer was surprised, but Kevin Trevicorn didn't seem to understand. Thinking carefully about Kevin Trevicorn's words, Harry Spencer suddenly became furious:
"What the hell do you want to say? Do you want to tell me that your Chairman Arnold and Vice Chairman Henry both have a baron father? Get out of my office and disappear from my office immediately, so that your Chairman Arnold and Vice Chairman Henry
Chairman, come and explain to me what you mean!”
Kevin Trevicorn probably doesn't know that Harry Spencer has such a huge background that Rock has to back off to make room for Harry Spencer. Arnold and Henry?
Sorry, these two people didn't even show their faces, which already speaks volumes.
Kevin Trevicorn was kicked out of the police station before he could figure out the situation. Only then did Kevin Trevicorn notice Harry Spencer's last name.
On the same day, Kevin Trevicorn returned to Pretoria to take charge of Pretoria's publicity work.
After the incident subsided, Johannesburg's propaganda war entered a new stage.
What was supposed to be a tense propaganda war turned out to be a harmonious and harmonious scene. National Party staff no longer dared to point fingers at Liberal Party staff, and in many cases even flattered them.
The propagandists of the Liberal Party and the propagandists of the National Party will also take the initiative to communicate with each other when they have nothing to do.
Even the benefits provided by the Liberal Party to propagandists are sometimes used by National Party propagandists.
The role of money is really reflected in all aspects. Liberal Party propagandists take to the streets, and the party headquarters provides drinking water, wage subsidies, and two working meals a day.
The National Party's propagandists have nothing. Apart from the most basic salary, there is no need to think about subsidies. There are working meals, but the quality makes people sad when they see it. Even drinking water, the National Party's solution is for everyone.
A kettle. If you want to drink water, go find it yourself.
The gap was so huge that it finally reached an unbearable level. On June 25, the National Party's propaganda work basically had no effect. No one wanted to join the National Party. Not even the National Party was responsible for propaganda work.
Several people have left. They were all attracted by the Liberal Party's high welfare, voluntarily quit the National Party, and voluntarily joined the Liberal Party.
This situation was probably something Arnold didn't expect.
Anyway, when Rock and Phyllis went to Phillip's house for dinner as usual, Arnold's expression became uglier every time.
Philip ignored the disputes between the National Party and the Liberal Party. When Roque and Phyllis had dinner at Philip's house, the main topic at the table was health care and childcare. The men rarely expressed their opinions. Most of them
At that time, the atmosphere at the dinner table was adjusted by Phyllis and Owen's wife Carina, and Arnold's wife Lena rarely spoke.
One day in July, Arnold finally couldn't help but bring up the topic of the election at the dinner table.
"Owen, I hope you can expel those former National Party members. Their influence is very bad and will destroy the tacit understanding between our two parties." Arnold's suggestion surprised both Rock and Owen.
Fortunately, Arnold came up with this suggestion. When Arnold first returned to Johannesburg, he followed Irving to the Liberal Party headquarters under the pretext of learning experience, and successfully seduced more than a hundred Liberal Party members from the Liberal Party. At that time, Arnold could
I didn’t say I didn’t accept it, but I was quite happy.
According to this logic, now that some members of the National Party have quit the party and joined the Liberal Party, Arnold has no position to say these things.
Maybe it's because this type of person has a weird brain circuit.
Rock can now finally confirm that Arnold is still the same Arnold as before and has not changed at all. Probably the whole world should revolve around Arnold.
Owen didn't talk nonsense, he just said lightly: "I don't know what's going on yet, let me understand it first."
If it had been anyone else, the matter would have been over with a quick laugh, but Arnold refused to give up.
"Don't you know what's going on? I'll tell you what's going on." Arnold rambled on, telling the whole thing.
"It's not like someone incited them to join the Liberal Party. This was their own choice. There were also people who left the Liberal Party and joined the National Party. Didn't your National Party also accept them?" Owen has been the leader of the party for so long, so he is certainly not someone to be bullied.
"Owen, you really shouldn't care about this. Your Liberal Party has 100,000 members, but the National Party has less than 1,000 members." Arnold's reason was simply speechless.
I am weak and I am justified?
No, according to the law of the jungle at this time, the weak should be beaten!
"Wow, the Liberal Party now has 100,000 members?" Even Philip was surprised at this time.
"One hundred thousand party members is true, but not all party members have the right to vote. The Liberal Party now has female members, including Phyllis and Karina. We will also try our best to fight for women's rights. For example, due to labor shortage, many factories now have
There are a large number of female employees employed in the factory, but there is a big gap between their salaries and male employees. After the election, we will formulate relevant regulations to prompt the factory to increase the salaries of female employees. Even if they do not reach the same level as male employees, there will not be a gap.
Too big." Irving is becoming more and more mature politically and behaves like a qualified politician, which makes Philip feel very relieved.
All along, among Philip's three sons and one daughter, Philip was most worried about Owen.
Needless to say, Arnold has a title to inherit.
Henry now also has a title and a lot of assets in his name. Phyllis is now a "Baroness" and also has a lot of assets in her name. Only Irving has no property in her name and no title to inherit. Even her job depends on Philip's talent.
solve.
After arriving in Johannesburg, Irving changed a lot. He first founded the Liberal Party with Roque, then ran a business with Roque, and now serves as the chairman of the Electoral Committee. After the election, Irving's status will be further improved.
"In our Johannesburg area, the wool textile mills that employ the most female employees are the wool textile mills," Karina joked while looking at Phyllis.
Phyllis was confused.
Rock was a little speechless. The woolen textile factory was in Phyllis's name. Rock was sure that Phyllis had forgotten about it.
Sure enough, after being reminded by Karina, Phyllis looked really surprised: "I am the owner of a wool textile factory?"
"Yes, Mrs. Nyasaland, I'm sorry, I didn't get your permission when I gave the wool textile factory to you." Rock added. The wool textile factory actually lost money when it was first established. Now,
Of course, it has started to make a profit, and the profit is quite a lot every month.
The manager of the wool textile mill would report the operating status to Rock every month, and then deposit the profits into an account at Rand Bank. Phyllis probably didn't know how much money was in the account, and neither did Rock.
"Okay, don't worry about this problem. I will give my employees a raise later!" Phyllis vowed. This person also regards money as dirt and has little concept of money.
"I said, shouldn't we go back to the issue of party members?" Arnold's voice was a little loud.
"Arnold, you are the chairman of the National Party. If the members of the National Party are lost, you should look for problems within yourself instead of blindly asking others." Philip finally said something fair. For him, it was the back of his hand.
It's all meat. Now Philip must be regretting that he shouldn't have let Arnold back in the first place.
However, both Rock and Owen can understand the old man's mood.
It's a pity that sometimes I turn my heart to the bright moon, but the bright moon shines in the ditch.
