538 Riot

 Just like Philip said, if some people don't take the initiative to jump out, Roque has no reason to take action even if he wants to.

The biggest hidden danger of the federal government is the Boers. Although the federal government has given a lot of care to the Boers after its establishment, many Boers still believe that the current federal government is a thief who has stolen everything that originally belonged to the Boers and then thrown it away.

It is simply impossible to give the Boers some small profits and expect them to be grateful.

Some officials, including those within the federal government, may believe that the gold mines in Johannesburg should belong to the Boers, and the gold dug out should be shared by all Boers.

For the same reason, they would also believe that the farms in the Transvaal also belonged to the Boers. Without the British annexation, the Boers should still enjoy a leisurely and prosperous pastoral life.

As for Ziwei Public School, if it were not for Roque's control, then the admission quota for Ziwei Public School should also belong to all Boers, instead of being divided between whites and Chinese as it is now.

If you think about it this way, then the current southern Africa is based on the plunder of the Boers, and it has the current blossoms.

Some people simply don't know how to think or reflect. Maybe it's not that they can't, but that they don't want to. They also won't admit that if it were still the period of the Transvaal Republic, Ziwei Public School would not have appeared at all.

The farms around Johannesburg would not have changed dramatically, and even the Rand gold mines would not have been as productive as they are now.

The last point is for sure. Without Rock, the Rock Gold Mine would not have been discovered until 1939, and the current Rand Bank was originally established based on the gold in the basement of the Rock Gold Mine. If there was no

Many of Rand Bank and Rock's investments would not be able to start, and the industry in southern Africa would be out of the question.

"You should pay attention to Johannesburg. Someone is trying to establish a workers' association, which will have an important impact on the gold mines in Johannesburg." Philip reminded Rock that workers' associations are the natural enemies of capitalists.

"I know."

"you know?"

"Yes, I know!" Rock has everything under control, Brad's office is not a vegetarian.

Although the Rock people are in Nyasaland, they are very familiar with the situation in Johannesburg. This association was initiated by two Boers, one named Phoebe Lasker and the other Sean Nehemiah.

Phoebe Lasker was a mine owner during the Transvaal Republic. After the Boer War, Phoebe Lasker's gold mine was bought by Stoudemire at a low price. Phoebe Lasker later joined politics and is now Oran

Member of the Governing Council.

Sean Nehemiah is a top student who graduated from Cambridge University. After graduating from Cambridge five years ago, he returned to Bloemfontein and opened a law firm. He is now a well-known lawyer in Orange and a member of the Orange Parliament.

.

Because the main population of Orange is Boer, Rock has always paid close attention to Orange, and these two people have been under the surveillance of Bullard's office.

About a month ago, after the Umbrella Company took military action against the Port of Medan, Phoebe Lasker and Sean Nehemiah began advocating in newspapers to establish workers' associations across southern Africa to protect workers' interests.

.

This suggestion only had a market within Orange and did not arouse any repercussions outside Orange. Other newspapers outside Orange were not even interested in discussing it.

In fact, there is a workers' association in Southern Africa, and it was established very early. It was established before the outbreak of the Boer War. However, this workers' association is different from the workers' association proposed by Phoebe Lasker. The official name of the Southern African Workers' Association is

The Society of Engineers, whose members are mainly technical personnel facing all enterprises in southern Africa.

The workers' association proposed by Phoebe Lasker mainly targets the miners in the Johannesburg gold mines. Most of these miners are Zulu. They are not even recognized by the federal government and are not citizens of Southern Africa. Therefore,

Naturally, there is no qualification to become a member of the association.

The main purpose of the Engineers Association of Southern Africa is to train more technical personnel for southern Africa. In Southern Africa, there is a huge gap in electrical engineers and mechanical engineers. The Engineers Association is located in Little Rock, Salisbury, Johannesburg, and Pretor

There are engineer training courses in Leah and Cape Town. Anyone who is interested in the profession of engineer can go to the training courses and all courses are free. The Engineers Association provides funds for the operation of the training courses.

Over the years, the Southern African Engineers Association has trained thousands of engineers for southern Africa. The Engineers Association has more than 50,000 formal members and is the second largest civil society organization in Southern Africa, second only to the Southern African Rifle Association.

You can also tell by looking at the name that the Southern African Rifle Association is a non-governmental organization supported by the Nyasaland Military Industrial Group. This organization has nearly one million people. Almost all farmers in Southern Africa are members of the Rifle Association. The Rifle Association

Regular training will be provided to members to improve their ability to use various weapons. All stores selling weapons in Southern Africa are also members of the Rifle Association. Members can enjoy discounts only available to members when purchasing weapons in gun stores.

"The colonial rule of the Dutch in East India is collapsing, so it is normal for the Dutch to incite the Boers in Orange to cause trouble. The ones who are jumping out now are just minions. I want to wait and see if any big fish take the bait." Rock

There is no need to hide it from Philip. As members of the Matilda family, Roque and Philip will both prosper and suffer.

The Boers are the descendants of the Dutch. There has been a long-standing feud between Britain and the Netherlands. Although the Boers are all British nationals now, some Boers must sympathize with the Netherlands. East India is now a trigger, and Rock doesn't know.

It remains to be seen how far things will evolve.

"Pay attention to control and don't cause too much impact." Phillip requested that Rock can fish for big fish for a long time, but he can't cause bad effects.

"I know -" Roque is measured and will control the impact within Orange State and will not spread to surrounding areas.

After all, the Boers in Orange have limited influence. The Cape is a British reserve. The Zulu and Boers in Basutoland are also feuding. The Boers have almost no influence in the Transvaal and Bechuanaland.

So even if the situation in Orange worsens, it won't get much worse.

After all, most Boers have accepted the status quo. The ambitious Boers have been exhausted after the Boer War. That is to say, some Boers who lost power after the war, but are unwilling to be lonely, are still looking for opportunities, but then

With the development of southern Africa, the opportunities for these Boers are becoming less and less.

While Rock and Philip were walking, a dozen Boers were already half drunk in a bar in the center of Bloemfontein.

"We should launch a riot and let the outside world really hear our voices, instead of hiding in dark corners like mice and feeling sorry for ourselves. The British took everything from us. Those yellow monkeys stole our farms. We

Our children do not even have the right to education. The federal government has never paid attention to the demands of our Boers. Orange does not enjoy the care of the federal government. We must take the initiative to stand up and safeguard our own interests!" Phoebe Ra

Sk is a tall, middle-aged fat man with severe baldness and a standard Mediterranean hairstyle. He has a severe beer belly due to his alcoholism, and his eyes are now a little red due to alcohol stimulation.

"Phoebe, calm down, we should put forward our demands in a peaceful way." Sean Nehemiah didn't drink too much. He wore a pair of myopic glasses with gold frames. His body was a little thin, and he was shrinking.

A large sofa is like a poisonous snake hiding in the dark and choosing people to bite.

"Peaceful methods will not lead to anything. We have put forward our demands in newspapers, and as you can see, except for the Orange newspaper, other newspapers are not even interested in discussing it. In fact, they don't care about our demands at all.

, some damn guy controls the largest circulation newspaper in the federation, and the newspaper will not publish news that is unfavorable to him. We all know who controls the gold mine in Johannesburg. The Mining Union is a damn accomplice. Those who hold the

Will the guy who wasted his time on the gold that should have been ours give it back to us? No, I should have blown up the mine instead of selling it at a low price." Phoebe Lasker regretted it, Bull said

On the eve of the outbreak of the war, Phoebe Lasker fled to the Netherlands for refuge. When she returned to southern Africa, she was already a changed person and had to sell the gold mine to the De Beers Consolidated Mining Company.

Now Phoebe Lasker's gold mine is flourishing in the hands of De Beers Consolidated Mining Company, and the annual gold production is one of the highest among all the gold mines in Johannesburg. Whenever she thinks of this, Phoebe Lasker feels heartbroken.

.

"Mr. Lasker, you should really listen to Mr. Nehemiah's advice." Someone immediately advised him. The secret police in Southern Africa are pervasive. If Phoebe Lasker's words get out, everyone present will be in trouble.

"Listen to me gentlemen, remember the volunteers from Europe during the war? They were ready again, and as soon as we started an insurrection, more and more volunteers would join. Southern Africa has expanded over the years,

It has become a public enemy in the surrounding area, and now it lacks the person to raise its arms and shout." Phoebe Lasker was raising her arms and shouting, but few people responded, so the scene was a bit embarrassing.

"Phoebe, this is no longer the situation before the war broke out." Sean Nehemiah was helpless. There was really nothing anyone could do against such a pig teammate.
