It is natural for enterprises to obtain profits through normal business operations, and people like Lapstine are the real worms.
In the final analysis, the system in Southern Africa is not reasonable enough, but relatively speaking it is quite good. Although life is a bit difficult for the federal government, the lives of Southern African enterprises and people can be described as prosperous.
It goes without saying that the business environment in Southern Africa needs to be described in detail. The big companies that control the economy will not allow the business environment to deteriorate. The federal government is having such a difficult time. Ade wants to spend every penny in half. Officials cannot be greedy even if they want to.
, the government and the business environment will naturally be neat and orderly, and one or two moths occasionally will not have too serious an impact. As long as they don't go too far, the federal government will turn a blind eye.
The basis of southern African society is the farms all over southern Africa. These farms belong to major enterprises and private farmers. The identities of private farmers are complicated. The owners of large farms are early immigrants or federal government employees. Until now, southern Africa
The agricultural tax is almost tax-free at 5%. Most members of Congress have their own farms, so they will not set too high a tax rate for themselves.
Under the premise of light corvee and low taxes, life at all levels of the federal government is a bit difficult. Officials have power, but the ways to realize it are limited. Civil servants are a very ordinary job, and their salaries and benefits are less than those of senior employees in large companies.
Many truly capable people work in large companies. In addition to truly serving the country and the people, working in the government also requires preparation for hard work.
In fact, hard work is not to mention, becoming a government employee is still very beneficial. For example, government employees have priority in purchasing the German-run farms in Southwest Africa and Tanganyika that the federal government has just confiscated.
The Southern African government encourages its citizens to go to neighboring countries to buy assets. There are many farms in Portuguese West Africa run by Southern Africans. If these nationals who go abroad to buy assets are treated unfairly by the local government, the federal government will become their strong backing.

In order to obtain a monthly order of 20 million pounds, Christian wrote a check to Lapstine for one million pounds, which was more than seven tons of gold based on the gold exchange rate of pounds before the outbreak of the world war.
So a medal that weighs a ton is really nothing.
The wool comes from the sheep. The sacrifices in southern Africa are so huge, and the benefits are of course unimaginable. The list of items purchased by the Russian Empire actually includes the Lord's car, a luxury item that the frontline troops will definitely not use. Therefore, the Russian Empire's army is in the world.
There is indeed a reason for his poor performance in the war.
The Lord's car is still about 10,000 pounds each. Calculated at the price before the outbreak of the world war, you can buy almost two of the export version of the "Strong Wind" fighter jet, three of the "Alligator" armored vehicle, and almost 100 pounds of bullets.
1.4 million rounds.
Rasputin purchased a hundred of the Lord's cars that were not needed on the front line at one time. The Lord's cars could only be produced in one year.
Compared with before the war, the price of goods sold to the Russian Empire in southern Africa is about 50% higher. The federal government imposes a 10% to 15% commodity tax on exported materials. This is the largest federal government tax now.
sources of income.
"The front lines are in full swing, Paris is singing night after night, and France is becoming more and more degenerate. Last month, the Immigration Bureau received 30,000 immigration applications. The federal government officially canceled all immigration subsidies, and new immigrants will no longer be allocated land, and
Compared with previous immigrants, today's new immigrants are at a disadvantage -" Ada is neither sad nor happy. Today's France has nothing to do with Ada.
The federal government's cancellation of immigration preferential treatment will not affect Nyasaland immigrants. If the federal government cancels the preferential treatment, the Nyasaland state government will not cancel it. The immigration expenses that should be reimbursed will still be reimbursed, but the allocated land will be less and less.
The single-family villas originally allocated to high-quality immigrants have gradually turned into high-rise apartments. Residential communities composed of apartment buildings have begun to appear in Los Angeles and Port Edward. These residential communities are built under the leadership of the government and are not expensive.
The land utilization rate is higher. In southern Africa, real estate is not yet a hugely profitable industry.
However, with the growth of population, the real estate industry will become a hugely profitable industry in southern Africa sooner or later. Now, formal real estate companies have begun to appear in Los Angeles and Port Edward, and Christian has several under his name.
Roque is too lazy to earn this kind of money. He is not capable of earning the money of his own people. If he is capable, he can earn the money of Europeans.
What is gratifying is that Rock, Stoudemire, Henry all think so now, and so does Christian, which is why Christian is buying the bottom.
"You deserve it. They didn't come when I begged them to immigrate in the past. Now that the war has broken out, I want to take refuge in Southern Africa. The Immigration Bureau should formulate a policy that requires investment in Southern Africa to reach a certain amount before immigrating to Southern Africa." Roque's words are of course aimed at it.
Forget about European immigrants and Chinese immigrants, they are not suitable for this kind of food.
"It has already started. Starting from next year, new immigrants will have to invest 100 pounds in Southern Africa before they can immigrate to Southern Africa -" Ada smiled brightly, and there was no need to ask. The Ministry of Finance must have contributed to the emergence of such a policy.
"Can the requirements for skilled workers be lower?" Christian said sadly. His company also hired a large number of new immigrants. The federal government's restrictions on new immigrants will definitely affect the development of Christian's company.
"Skilled workers are skilled immigrants -" Ada understated. This solved all the problems. Since skilled workers are skilled immigrants, skilled farmers should also be skilled immigrants. In this way, the judgment of "skilled" standard will be different.
Let the Immigration Bureau explain everything.
The reason for restricting immigration is mainly because the proportion of scum among immigrants in this era is too high.
Chinese immigrants are better off. They are forced to immigrate because they work really hard but can’t get enough to eat and can’t survive. Among the new immigrants from Europe, the proportion of scum is not too high. They are thieves, liars, and robbers.
Everyone has it. Before the establishment of the federal government, the British exiled domestic prisoners in southern Africa. They really kicked them to the ends of the earth.
This is also the reason why serious people are unwilling to go to colonies, especially scum concentration camps, only ghosts are willing to go.
This is also the reason why the moral standards of colonial countries are not very high. If you talk about morality with a group of thieves and swindlers, you might as well play the piano to a cow. At least the cow will be quiet.
After the outbreak of the World War, escaping the war became an important reason for immigrating to southern Africa. The positive image established by the expeditionary force in France was also one of the important factors for immigration.
Roque's management of the expeditionary force is still very strict. France has transferred back its colonial troops to participate in the domestic war, and there will be negative news from time to time. There is almost no negative news about the Southern African Expeditionary Force. An African soldier from the 103rd Division was in Flanders.
A Belgian who had been raped during the Sri Lankan war was shot directly by Roque. Even similar negative news will turn into positive news as long as you pay attention to the guidance.
As for the romantic news between an officer and a French woman or a Belgian woman, it is an uncontrollable love between two people who are in love. This is human nature that cannot be eliminated, and it also depends on how to guide it.
Of course, in a harmonious environment, there are also newspapers that magnify some issues to an unlimited extent. Such newspapers are usually directly blocked by the French government. For politicians in the French government, maintaining the unity of the coalition forces against Germany is the most important thing at the moment.
contradiction, other issues are secondary issues.
Roque openly attended the banquet held by the coalition forces with Ada. Joffre, Foch, Gallieni and other French generals were very close to Ada and did not mind Ada and Roque being together. If Roque
Ke is an ordinary Chinese, and maybe Xiafei and Foch will still have some opinions, but now Roque, even Princess Shang is qualified.
In European monarchy countries, Princess Shang does not destroy her own future, and there are very few princesses who marry the common people. Princesses are generally used as tools for marriage.
Politics is so cruel, and the princesses cannot resist. Being born into a royal family brings happiness and sorrow to being born into a royal family. Even though you are Queen Victoria, you are not married to love, but to national interests.
Queen Victoria's first love was Alexander II, the eldest son of the Russian Czar at that time, but Queen Victoria could not decide on her own marriage. She finally married her cousin Prince Albert, who had already ascended the throne at that time.
Even though Ada was present, Roque didn't bother to give Joffre too many smiles. Instead, he talked more with Foch and Gallieni. For Foch, Roque was now an emotional investment, but for Gallieni and Roque, it was rare.
This is an old man worthy of respect. Without him, there would be no final victory in the Battle of the Marne, and Paris might have fallen long ago.
"Today's weapons are becoming more and more advanced, and the mode of war is also changing. The cavalry was indeed very important in the musket era, but now it is on the verge of being eliminated. Compared with war horses, cars are faster, have longer endurance, and require less maintenance.
It’s simpler. The only problem now is production, but as production increases, armored vehicles will gradually phase out war horses, which is the future development direction.” Roque was very willing to chat with Gallieni, and the taxis during the Battle of the Marne were really cars.
, or Renault, whose factory is in Boulogne-Billancourt, next to Paris.
Of course, the role of the 6,000 soldiers transported by taxis in a million-person war is a matter of opinion.
"Yes, in the war a hundred years ago, it took half a year to assemble soldiers from all over the country. Now with the railway, it only takes ten days to assemble. The weapons and guns captured in the past can be directly equipped with troops. Now even if the weapons are captured
It cannot be used, after all, the weapons have different calibers." Gallieni and his generation are still very pragmatic, but they are all old.
