The second Chinese policeman to buy a house in Cape Town was not Anton, but Luo Yi. Moreover, Luo Yi did not buy a mansion like Roque, but a farm in the suburbs of Cape Town.
Rock and the others gained a lot on the front line, and Luo Yi was not idle in Cape Town. After becoming the police chief, Luo Yi took over the dock that Rock was previously responsible for. In this position, Luo Yi burst out with huge energy. Rock had previously
When he was a sergeant, Roark himself had an extra income of about 120 pounds a week. Just two weeks after Roark became a sergeant, Roark's income doubled.
Luo Ke's income has doubled, and Luo Yi's income must be a lot, so after getting money, Luo Yi's first choice is to settle down.
"The price of farms now is surprisingly cheap. A farm with an area of 1,000 acres only costs less than 100 pounds. The one I bought with an area of 3,000 acres only cost 280 pounds. I have given it to my family.
I sent a telegram asking them to come to Cape Town. From now on, we men are also landowners!" Luo Yi started to shed tears as he spoke. Three thousand acres is equivalent to about eighteen thousand acres. What is this?
concept?
A whole 12 square kilometers!
"It only cost 280 pounds? Where is the farm?" Rock was a little curious. Even if the frontline war is unclear and the land price is cheap now, it is not such a bargain. How big is South Africa in the 21st century? 1.21 million
Square kilometers, if you calculate it this way, you can buy the entire South Africa for one hundred thousand pounds?
Stop being funny!
"The farm is in the Bechuanaland Protected Area, which is a bit far from Cape Town, but the price is cheap. Three thousand acres of land are planted with food. The harvest in one year is enough for me to last a lifetime." Luo Yi is very idealistic and really
To achieve this, the grain harvested in one year would really be enough for Luo Yi to feed him for a lifetime.
Luo Ke didn't talk nonsense and didn't think that the colonial government would give such a big gift package to Luo Yi so easily.
Turning over the map, Rock knew where this god-like protected area of Bechuanaland was.
In Botswana, Botswana is now called Bechuanaland Reserve. According to Luo Yi, Luo Yi’s farm is 850 kilometers away from Cape Town.
Straight line distance!
"Not to mention 280 pounds, even 8 pounds is too expensive for me. You probably don't know the situation in the Bechuanaland Protected Area, and you still want to farm? Plowing rocks will exhaust you, and you can't even raise cattle!" Luo
Grams is really speechless. The whole country of Botswana is covered with dry platform terrain. To put it bluntly, it is a wilderness. If you hope to farm in Botswana, it is better to hope that there is a diamond mine underground.
Even if you just buy a piece of land, it is unreliable enough that there will be a diamond mine underground.
Luo Yi was stunned and felt that his brain was no longer enough. There were endless vineyards everywhere on the outskirts of Cape Town. Luo Yi thought that the land he bought was similar to the situation in the suburbs of Cape Town. As long as he was not afraid of hardship, he would
Tired, there will always be gains, but I didn’t expect it
The colonial government is so disgusting!
"This is so fucking deceptive!"
"Let me just say there will be no pie in the sky!"
"Can I withdraw?"
The Chinese police officers crowded in Roque's office to watch the excitement were talking a lot. Recently, everyone has some money in their pockets, and they are all starting to make plans to buy a house and land in Cape Town. What happened to Luo Yi?
Everyone sounded the alarm, not everyone is as lucky as Rock.
"The city hall is so shitty. I even borrowed more than a hundred pounds from my brothers! It's my money." Luo Yibei couldn't help but burst into tears.
Well, I feel similar to those brothers who are trapped in stock trading.
"Stop howling. I told you to keep a low profile before I left. Keep a low profile. You are so low-key. Let me ask you, when I bought the land, the people in the city hall didn't ask you. How do you explain that you have 280 pounds?"
"What Rock is more worried about is another issue. 280 pounds is neither too much nor too little, but even based on the salary of a police sergeant, it is impossible for Luo Yi to earn so much money in such a short period of time.
Regarding gray income, Rock has always been worried about this issue. After the Chinese police have money, they will definitely choose to buy houses and land in Cape Town. If the British notice this, everyone including Rock will be unlucky.
So Rock has always hoped that Anton and Luo Yi can bring their families to Cape Town. At least then, the gray income of the Chinese policemen will have a reasonable reason. It is worth tens of thousands of yuan to break the family. A country as big as the Qing Dynasty
, it’s so normal to have a few rich people.
In fact, this reason is not so perfect, but it can at least partially solve this problem. The British will not focus on the Chinese police. The British will focus on the Rand Gold Mine, and the gold there is worthy of the British attention.
What's more, this problem doesn't just happen to Chinese policemen. Those Indian policemen are also trying to make money. Roque doesn't live alone. When he makes money, he should give tribute to his superiors. It has never been less. At this point,
It is no longer a purely personal issue, but has risen to the level of a group. If the British want to investigate the gray income of the Chinese police, well, the entire Cape Town Police Department, from the police chief to the prison guard, will probably run away.
Don't fall off.
This is the so-called nest case!
Although those "offerings" made Rock feel heartbroken, Rock used this method to tie the entire police station together with the Chinese police. Therefore, if the British really want to investigate, the first thing they need to worry about is August.
Russell and Austin Burns, Rock, they are just little shrimps.
Otherwise, Rock wouldn't be an inspector now.
"I borrowed it, I borrowed 100 pounds from the Imperial Bank, plus what I saved myself, I also borrowed some from my brothers." Luo Yi was quite smart and knew how to borrow money from the bank.
The Imperial Bank is the Bank of England. It is the oldest bank in the United Kingdom. Of course it also has business in the Cape. The Cape's gold is constantly strengthening London's status as the world's financial center. The Bank of England established a branch in Cape Town a long time ago.
"If you're smart, don't even think about the money. The city hall will definitely not refund the money. I bet you will never go to this shitty Bechuanaland Protectorate in your life. Be honest during the next time, from the dock.
Business has been temporarily suspended. If you want to buy a house and land in Cape, remember to say hello to me first and I will help you find it." Rock's last words were addressed to all Chinese police officers.
"I won't buy it, I won't buy it."
"I still want to buy it, let me buy it for us."
"Buy a house first and settle down later."
Luo Yi's lesson is profound enough. If Rock was just the "head" of the Chinese police before, now, Rock is the patron saint of the Chinese police. This is more important than the little money Luo Yi lost.
