When it comes to the level of Rock, Stoudemire and Henry, the cost of trial and error is their biggest advantage.
It's good if an investment succeeds, but it doesn't matter if it doesn't. In southern Africa where private ownership is practiced, the more land, the better. The more you put it, the more valuable it is. Needless to say, as long as Rock, Stoudemire and Henry buy it,
One-third of the farms in Orange, then Orange will change and the Boers' dominance in Orange will be shaken.
Just go ahead, Rock, Stoudemire, and Henry immediately decided to invest 500,000 pounds each to establish the Bechuanaland Agricultural Development Company and begin large-scale acquisitions of farms in Orange.
As for why the name is Bechuanaland instead of Rhodesia or Nyasaland, in addition to not arousing the vigilance of the Orange government, the Bechuanaland Agricultural Development Company of course also wants to develop the Bechuanaland Protected Area. Roque certainly does not
We will forget the 580,000 square kilometers of Botswana. In terms of sheer area, the Bechuanaland Protected Area is much larger than Orange.
In fact, currently, it is more cost-effective to develop Bechuanaland Protected Area than to develop Orange. Rock still remembers that when he was in Cape Town, Luo Yiyi spent 280 pounds to buy a full 12 square meters in Bechuanaland Protected Area.
kilometer.
The current price of land in the Bechuanaland Protected Area is not much higher than when Luoyi bought the land. As the governor of Bechuanaland, Amelia built Luoyang in Roque and Xiaosi in order to get the protection of Roque and Xiaosi.
When he came to Germany, he granted Rhodes a total of 500 square kilometers of land with a stroke of a pen, and the transfer price was only a symbolic one hundred pounds.
While Bechuanaland Agricultural Development Company acquires Orange Farm, it will also develop farms in Bechuanaland.
Relatively speaking, the farms in Bechuanaland are actually easier to develop. As a highland country, Bechuanaland's agriculture is greatly restricted. Pasture is the best choice in Bechuanaland. The property of Bechuanaland people is also based on cattle.
Measured by the number of herds, the size of the farm really doesn't matter, because in Bechuanaland, no one cares about farms at all, and the cheapest thing is land.
Rock's development of the farm in Bechuanaland means a large-scale influx of Chinese Americans, which will definitely change the current situation in Bechuanaland.
In Transvaal and Nyasaland, people are now more accustomed to captive breeding than nomadic herding in the past. Compared with nomadic herding, captive breeding is more conducive to the reproduction and expansion of livestock herds, and it is also more land-saving and more efficient. Under the same conditions,
, the efficiency of captivity is more than ten times that of nomadism. The influx of Chinese will completely change the current situation of Bechuanaland. In time, Bechuanaland may also become the next Transvaal.
The next day, witnessed by Rock, Stoudemire and Henry, Nyasaland Governor Anton and Neville Chamberlain signed a series of cooperation agreements, entrusting Neville with the sales of Nyasaland products within the Commonwealth.
· Chamberlain.
The promise given by Neville Chamberlain is that the annual sales will be no less than 10 million pounds. If it is less than this number, then Neville Chamberlain will automatically lose the agency rights for Nyasaland products. Nyasaland will
Select an agent again.
Of course, in order to give Neville Chamberlain enough motivation, Rock still gave Neville Chamberlain many discounts on the price. An ordinary car on the market sold for three thousand pounds, Rock gave Neville Chamberlain
The price is only two thousand five hundred pounds. For every one sold, Neville Chamberlain can make a profit of five hundred pounds. This price is exactly the same as the price given to Ada. Rock definitely does not want to see Neville Chamberlain.
In a price war with Ada, Nyasaland will suffer in the end.
After the agreement was signed, Anton held a grand celebration dinner for brother Neville Chamberlain at the Nyasaland State Government. Rock, Stoudemire, and Henry accompanied him throughout the whole process. Austin Chamberlain finally forgot about the incident caused by Tanganyika.
I was a little unhappy, but I had a great time chatting with Anton, who was flattering.
Although Austin Chamberlain is now excluded from the cabinet and does not hold any position, Austin Chamberlain previously served as Minister of Posts and Telecommunications and Minister of Finance and has very rich political experience, which is exactly what Anton lacks most.
Anton and Roque are not the same. Although their origins are similar, Roque's body is a soul from another time and space, and his vision is beyond that of everyone in this era. Anton is limited by this era, even though An has been there all these years.
Dong studied hard and now serves as the governor of Nyasara State. In fact, he is still a little unable to do what he wants.
Fortunately, Roark doesn't care. Although Anton is not a qualified governor, others are even less qualified. Anton is at least the person Roark trusts most and will not betray Roark. This is enough to offset Anton's lack of ability.
.
No matter how Anton sought advice from Austin Chamberlain, Rock still wanted to help Neville Chamberlain solve the financial problem after signing the contract.
Neville Chamberlain wanted a loan from the Rand Bank to pay Nyasaland.
In other words, Neville Chamberlain is playing with nothing.
Roark, the empty-handed white wolf, also admitted it. Anyway, Ada played this way. The problem was that Neville Chamberlain had no property mortgage in southern Africa and was unwilling to use the dividends from the Favalte Steel Works as collateral, so Roark
Just a little bit angry.
"Hmph, what do you mean? You don't need a mortgage to get a loan from the Rand Bank? Go ask the Imperial Bank and see if the Imperial Bank will lend it to you." Rock was also speechless. He would have known it to Neville Chamberlain.
The price should be at least 10% higher than the price given to Ada.
"Yes Locke, if the Chamberlain family wants to borrow from the Imperial Bank, they really don't need any collateral." Neville Chamberlain's eyes widened and he looked sincere.
Rock saw a hint of pride in Neville Chamberlain's eyes.
Neville Chamberlain did not lie on this issue. In the British political circles, the Chamberlain family is still very prestigious. Therefore, if the Chamberlain family wants to get a loan from the Imperial Bank, it is estimated that they really do not need a mortgage.
However, the reputation of the Chamberlain family is estimated to be of limited value. Perhaps Neville Chamberlain did not need a mortgage to borrow 10,000 pounds from the Imperial Bank, but what about 100,000 pounds?
By the way, the Imperial Bank probably won't be able to get it out for a while.
The amount of money Neville Chamberlain hopes to borrow from Rand Bank is one million. To be honest, Rand Bank won't be able to get it out for a while.
"Neville, you can temporarily represent other products. It's better to put it aside first." Rock didn't expect Neville Chamberlain's appetite to be so big.
It has to be said that the Chamberlain family is also very powerful. Neville Chamberlain ordered four Lord's cars worth ten thousand pounds each, and they all requested gold and diamond family crests. Such a badge is worth five thousand pounds.
pound.
At the same time, Neville Chamberlain requested the exclusive authorization of the Itno store. The transfer fee for the four Itno stores in London alone was as high as 400,000 pounds. There are now a total of fifteen such stores in the UK.
, Neville Chamberlain took out a loan because of these specialty stores.
"Why, not willing to part with it? Locke, don't forget that the contract we signed is for all the goods in Nyasaland, all of them!" Neville Chamberlain emphasized, despite the fact that Neville Chamberlain and Locke have a good relationship, when calculating economic accounts
The food appearance is also very ugly.
"Sorry Neville, Itno is not a company in Nyasaland, but a company in Johannesburg." Rock still has principles. You want what is given to you, and you can't miss what is not given to you.
What's more, Itno was the pocket money prepared by Rock for Phyllis and Ada. Rock himself didn't even ask about Itno's business situation. Neville Chamberlain really thought too much.
"Itno is not yours?" Neville Chamberlain obviously didn't believe it.
"Where's the boss?" Rock gestured. Not far away, Phyllis and Austin Chamberlain's wife, Ivy Chamberlain, were discussing how to take care of their children.
Austin Chamberlain and Ivy Chamberlain got married last year. Their child was just born a few months ago, and now Ivy Chamberlain is pregnant again.
"It's shameless of you to use your wife as a shield, Locke." Neville Chamberlain still didn't believe it.
"Stop talking nonsense. If you don't want to be an agent, you still have a chance to regret it." If Roque doesn't force him, Neville Chamberlain doesn't want to do it. There are many people who want to do it.
Before Neville Chamberlain could reply, Zach quietly came over and handed Rock a note. There was a Boer named Nikola van Rensburg who wanted to see Rock. He was downstairs now.
This Nicola Van Rensburg is no ordinary person. Among the Boers, Nicola Van Rensburg is a famous "prophet". During the Boer War, Nicola Van Rensburg relied on his "hallucination" to discover
Several British positions helped the Boer coalition win victory, so Nikolai Van Rensburg had high prestige among the Boers.
Rock was not interested in such a prophet. He was clearly a "prophet" himself, and most of the so-called "hallucinations" were just rumors. So Rock shook his head slightly, not wanting to see Nikolai Van Rensburg at all.
Zach walked away quietly, which still aroused Neville Chamberlain's idea.
"A Boer prophet wants to see me for some reason." Rock explained casually.
"Then let's meet him and hear what he has to say." Neville Chamberlain was very curious.
"Haha, if I can meet all kinds of people, I won't have to do anything else for the day." Rock won't just meet any cat or dog. Rock will set up the third and fourth divisions in a while, so he wants to meet them during this time.
There are many people in Rock, especially the Boers.
During the Boer War, many famous Boer generals are actually unemployed now. Except for Herzog and DeWitt, who have died unexpectedly, former Transvaal Acting President Schalke Beagle, former Boer Deputy Deputy Chief of the Allied Forces
Commander Byers, as well as the famous generals of the Boer coalition, Delale and Kemp, all wanted to meet with Roark, but Roark ignored them all and refused.
You don't need to think about it to know what these people want to do. Rock will definitely not let the Boers take over the military power.
