Workers imported from India still strictly follow the regulations of Southern Africa, and the labor agreement signed with Southern Africa will never exceed four years.
This also means that these workers will return to India after working in Southern Africa for four years, thus achieving the purpose of utilizing the Indian labor force, but not accepting Indians to join Southern Africa.
According to official statistics from the federal government, during the World War, at least 2 million Indians came to Southern Africa to work in factories and farms in Southern Africa. They effectively filled the labor vacancies caused by the large number of Southern Africans participating in the World War.
.
After Southern Africa annexed Southwest Africa and Tanganyika, the labor shortage in Southern Africa became more serious. Qinling could only leave relevant information first, and it would take at least a month before new workers could arrive in Tanganyika.
Qin Ling and Sophia should have gone to Luo City by then.
A month at night is not a big problem. The salary in Qinling is enough to support the whole family. The two old people on the farm really can't spend much money.
"In two years, we will move my father and mother to Los Angeles. My father and mother are older, and life and medical care are more convenient in Los Angeles. The farm here is contracted to an agricultural company, and we can't make much money in a year.
It’s a little money.” In fact, Qinling now wants the old couple to go to Los Angeles, but Garcia disagrees.
Garcia really loves this leisurely life with nothing to do but fishing and hunting. In Garcia's opinion, there is nothing good about city life. At least fishing is not as convenient as here.
And the harvest is definitely not as good as here. Garcia doesn’t want to leave because Lake Victoria is rich in tilapia. This kind of fish has tender meat, delicious taste, and very few fish bones. There are no small intermuscular spines. It tastes great whether it is braised or steamed.
good.
Of course, tilapia is not only found in Lake Victoria, but is found throughout Africa. With the development of Lake Victoria by South African companies, it will not be difficult to eat tilapia from Lake Victoria in Los Angeles in the near future.
"It won't take two years. Now that dad doesn't want to go to Los Angeles, we are all together. When we go to Los Angeles, mom will probably go there soon. When dad wants to be here, let him look after the house alone." Sophia said.
It's really cruel. These children are the lifeblood of the old couple now. If they are taken away, they are not afraid that the old couple will not follow them to Los Angeles.
After returning home, Sophia and Qin Ling were complained again by the old couple for their lavish spending. However, when they tried on clothes, the old couple were very happy again. Sophia did not tell the old couple the true price of the shoes, otherwise they would probably have lost their money.
There will be more complaints.
Of course, for dinner, the tilapia just caught by Garcia is indispensable. Making the fish is actually very simple. After cleaning it, pour in the seasonings and steam it directly in the pot. The fish itself is delicious enough to satisfy the taste buds. Steam one and then stew one.
If this were lunch, Qinling could eat three large bowls in one meal.
Of course they had to eat less for dinner, Qin Ling and Garcia also had a drink to cheer up, and the topic of course couldn't be separated from their life after arriving in Los Angeles.
"The newly bought house is right next to Lake Nyasa. You can see the unparalleled view of the lake when you open the window. After Sofia and Kati arrive in Los Angeles, I will buy a car so that it will be convenient no matter where I go. In fact,
You and your mother won't be lonely when you go to Los Angeles. You can also fish in Lake Nyasa, and the whitebait is more delicious than tilapia. What's more, after we all leave, you two are the only ones here, and we really can't.
Don't worry." Qinling is actively doing Garcia's ideological work. Everyone aspires to big cities. Los Angeles has already developed into a super city. It is still very convenient to go to Los Angeles now, but it will become more and more difficult in the future.
"You go ahead, the two of us will stay on the farm and look after the house. How much money can we make by contracting the farm to an agricultural company? Our more than 300 acres of rubber trees, just tapping rubber trees, will cost more than a hundred pounds a year." Garcia was reluctant to part with the farm.
But to have profits, you have to be able to cut the rubber. Now there are no workers, so we can only look at the rubber trees with greed.
The "mu" here refers to acres, and 300 acres is converted into 1,800 acres, so the profits are really huge.
The key point is that these farms have permanent property rights. As long as Qinling does not sell the farm, the farm will always belong to Qinling. This is wealth that can be passed down forever.
"That's right, now that life has just gotten better, you spend a lot of money. You are picky when you eat, and you go to the store in the town to buy clothes. Aren't you very happy when you wear the skirt I made for you?" Sofia
His mother helped, and the last words were to Sophia.
"Mom, I didn't have a choice at that time, so I had to wear whatever I wanted—" Sophia now knew how to talk back. Marrying a capable husband was different.
No, it should be said that it is different because the stomach is full of energy.
"You mean the clothes I made don't look good?" The old lady said she was very angry. This was like forgetting her mother after getting married.
"It looks good, but the clothes sold in the store are better, right Tony?" Sofia knew how to find reinforcements. Today, Sofia just bought a new set of clothes for Tony, round-toe leather shoes, pure cotton Henry shirt, and corduroy suspenders.
Trousers and a small baseball cap, Tony was so happy that he didn't even want to wear the baseball cap.
"Aunt Sophia is right -" Tony stood firm, and it turned out that he was short-handed and short-handed.
"You little traitor, you owe me a lot of money to feed you." The old lady didn't hesitate to say what she said. That's not what she said. She probably meant the same thing.
Well--
Except for the old lady, everyone at the table disliked it. This sentence was a bit offensive.
After dinner, Qin Ling and Garcia took flashlights and went hunting. In Garcia's words, they wanted to try the gun Qin Ling just bought to see if it worked.
In fact, Garcia probably fully enjoyed the time he spent with Qin Ling. Qin Ling did not refuse Garcia's proposal. He brought a shotgun and a pistol, and he also brought six strong hounds with him when he went out.
The hounds were probably a little too excited about this kind of nighttime activity, and as a result, the prey was scared away by the barking of the hounds. Qin Ling and Garcia wandered around outside for more than an hour without encountering a single prey.
"It was a mistake to bring the hound out. It should have been just the two of us. At least we wouldn't have found nothing like we did now." Garcia was a little depressed, and he didn't want to think about the greater possibility of scaring away the prey with the flashlight.
"Just go for a walk after dinner. It doesn't matter if there is prey or not. The key is safety first." Qinling is not depressed. It doesn't matter whether or not we can hunt prey. It doesn't depend on this for a living anyway. Although there are many farms around Lake Victoria,
However, the land is still vast and sparsely populated. There are crocodiles in Lake Victoria, and they are the most dangerous Nile crocodile. You still have to be careful when going out at night.
"Hahahaha, you are a sniper who has killed hundreds of people, are you so cowardly?" Garcia laughed at Qin Ling's caution. He didn't know that it was precisely because of this caution that Qin Ling could become a sniper of this level.
.
The number of precision shooters in the Southern African Expeditionary Force must exceed 10,000. Among so many people, there are only a few snipers at the Qinling level. The most important thing for a sniper is to be cautious. Those who are stupid and bold will die early and have no chance of survival.
After the war.
"Prudentness and cowardice are two different things. I have lived until the end of the war. It would be really unfair if I was killed by a wildebeest when I went out at night." Qin Ling was not angry. It was normal for his father-in-law to bully his son-in-law. He would go back to Sofia for revenge.
"Let's go, go back -" Garcia probably didn't know how much happiness his bad behavior would bring to his daughter. If he couldn't catch any prey, he would just go home and sleep, or it would be more efficient to fish. As long as he took action, he would be rewarded.
On the way home, we passed by a forest, and several hounds suddenly barked at the woods.
Before Garcia could react, Qin Ling loaded the bullet directly.
Qinling brought a shotgun, but it was useless to bring a rifle at night because it was too far away to see clearly.
"There is prey!" Garcia also became excited, holding the double-barreled shotgun in his hand and preparing to search in the woods.
"Don't go in -" Qin Ling called out to Garcia in time, saying, "Don't go in, old man."
"Look at the dog barking so fiercely, there must be prey in the woods." Garcia thought Qinling didn't notice anything unusual about the dog.
"I know, but the dog is just barking, so we can't go in." Qinling is really cautious. If there are large wild animals in the woods, Qinling really can't guarantee Garcia's safety.
It's better in the wilderness. Qinling's reaction speed is fast. As long as there are wild animals, Qinling can shoot in advance. Plus with the help of hounds, there is no problem in terms of safety.
It's different in the woods. If a wild animal suddenly attacks, Qinling can't guarantee that he can escape unscathed, let alone Garcia, who is already over sixty.
Garcia was a little depressed, but still respected Qin Ling's opinion.
Just when Qin Ling was about to go back with Garcia, Qin Ling's flashlight inadvertently swept over several people.
They were indeed human beings, and they were local Africans. When Qinling's flashlight passed over several people, they were kneeling by the woods. If Qinling's eyesight was not 8.0, Qinling would not have noticed them.
"Who are you?" Qin Ling did not approach, but shouted loudly with a flashlight from a distance.
Several Africans were silent and knelt on the ground with their hands raised in fear.
"I remembered that when the patrol came over in the afternoon, they said that several workers in the mine had escaped. These Africans should be the escaped workers -" Garcia was pointing his gun at several Africans as he spoke.
people.
"Everyone, get up and follow me -" Qinling didn't waste any words. He went over and kicked up a few Africans, lined them up, took them back to the farm and imprisoned them, and handed them over to the patrol team tomorrow.
"We happen to be short of a few workers on the farm." Garcia thought a little too much, and did not think that these people could escape in the mine. Wouldn't it be easier to escape on the farm?
"No, we can't have this kind of workers, they have to be handed over to the patrol team." Qin Ling was awake, and strangers with unknown origins should not just pick them up from home casually.
