Chapter 1117 Enthusiastic neighbor

After the world war, there was a major disarmament in southern Africa. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers left the army and retired from active service. Many of them entered the government sector after retirement, but many more had to fend for themselves.

Fortunately, for Southern Africa today, as long as you are willing to work, there are always countless jobs for people to choose from. Those soldiers who have the opportunity to join the army have their families who came to Southern Africa many years ago and have considerable assets in Southern Africa.

Even if you can't find a job in the city, you can still live a worry-free life back on the farm.

The earliest Chinese who came to southern Africa, especially the police officers under Rock and the miners in the Rock gold mine, are still in southern Africa. Now each of their families has hundreds or thousands of acres of farmland.

The worst offenders should be those Chinese who had the opportunity to stay but left southern Africa instead.

Many of them returned to Southern Africa with their families after leaving Southern Africa for a year or two, but they had lost their best opportunity.

The Qinling Mountains are quite lucky. Although the value of farms in Victoria is not as good as that of Saran, Transylvania, the difference lies in the geographical location, not the natural conditions. Even if we only talk about natural conditions, the farms around Lake Victoria are worse than those in the Transylvania. Landsvaal is better and has a lot of room for appreciation in the future.

Arriving at the Nyasaland Army Academy, Qin Ling first went to the logistics office to report, and then learned a piece of sad news.

The Nyasaland Army Academy is moving to Ulysses, and some instructors and students have already set off in advance. The Sniper Academy where Qinling is located happens to be among the first batch of moves.

"So, we are going to Ulysses now -" Sophia and Katie were also surprised. They had just been very fond of Los Angeles, but they didn't expect to pass it by.

"We'll go back after the New Year. Let's go home now." Qinling also felt a little regretful, but quickly adjusted. In terms of infrastructure, there is not much difference between Ulysses and Los Angeles.

What Qin Ling is most concerned about is the education of his children. Just now in the Logistics Department, Qin Ling has learned from the officers of the Logistics Department that the primary school and middle school affiliated to the Army Academy in Ulysses have been completed, and most of the teachers are transferred from Los Angeles.

Yes, you must know that many of the Army Academy’s instructors’ family members are teachers, and they will also go to Ulysses with their husbands to work. The affiliated elementary school and the affiliated middle school are mainly to solve this problem.

The property Qin Ling purchased is on Sunset Avenue by Lake Niasa. This area is a high-end residential area in Los Angeles. Almost all the residents are high-quality talents. They either work for the Nyasaland State Government or the Los Angeles City Government, or are in

Staff from various research institutes in Los Angeles, or executives working at the headquarters of multinational companies.

Qin Ling’s home is No. 1135 Sunset Avenue. In addition to the number, the house number also has “Qin” written in official script. The house is paved with beige marble, which is moisture-proof and insect-proof, and also provides a good foundation for future renovations, because the house is still

No one has ever lived there, and the front lawn is a bit messy, but the door and window glass are all intact, and the security in Los Angeles has always been very good.

After Qin Ling got home, he put down his luggage and rolled out the lawn mower from the garage to start tidying up the lawn. Sophia and Katie started cleaning the room. After all, Qin Ling's family had to live here for nearly two months before leaving for Ulysses, and the hygiene was still there.

To be cleaned.

While Qin Ling was cleaning the lawn, the neighbor in the yard next to him took the initiative to say hello to Qin Ling.

"Neighbor, do you need help?" The neighbor is a fat white man with a double chin. His hair is neatly combed. He wears a white shirt, black trousers and black shoes. He still wears this at home. He is probably a company executive.

"Thank you, I can do it myself. My name is Qin Ling, just call me Qin. I work at the Army Academy and just moved here. I'm sorry, the house is a bit messy right now and I can't invite you as a guest." Qin Ling was polite and wanted to give

Leave a good impression on your neighbors.

"Oh oh oh, instructor of the Army Academy! Then you must be a hero during the World War. I am honored to be your neighbor. I am John Alex from Nyasaland Automobile Group. Nice to meet you. Qin -

—" Alex took the initiative to shake hands with Qin Ling and expressed his respect to Qin Ling.

"No, no, no, I'm not a hero, Steve is -" Qin Ling came to the fence and shook hands with Alex across the fence, like old friends he hadn't seen for many years.

"So you are also a sniper? Come on, come sit here and tell me your story -" Alex invited warmly.

Qin Ling looked embarrassed, the lawn had not been tidied up yet.

"It's okay, Tom, Tom - come here and mow this lawn -" Alex asked someone to help Qinling mow the lawn. Tom was a young African, probably a servant of Alex's family.

In this evil capitalist society, as long as you have money, you can really do whatever you want.

Nyasaland Automobile Group not only produces civilian vehicles, the armored vehicles used by the expeditionary force during the World War were also produced by Nyasaland Automobile Group, so the benefits of Nyasaland Automobile Group are still very good, although Alex

He did not say what position he held in Nyasaland Automobile Group, but he seemed to be at least a senior executive, and it was normal for him to have a servant at home.

An African maid can provide you with food, food, and accommodation for only one or two rands a month. The price is not too cheap at all.

Qinling couldn't resist the warm welcome, so he went back to change his clothes, then picked up a box of chocolates produced in Belgium, and then went to Alex's house.

It's not good to go empty-handed when visiting a neighbor's house for the first time. These chocolates were brought back from Europe by Qin Ling. It's good to eat them yourself or give them as gifts.

Alex obviously didn't expect Qin Ling to be so polite, so he simply prepared a sumptuous afternoon tea for Qin Ling. The two of them sat in the corridor under the eaves, eating and chatting facing the vast Lake Nyasa.

"I'm of French descent. It's a pity that I couldn't return to France to fight with Germany during the World War, so thank you very much for giving me this opportunity to thank you in person. Thank you Qin, you did something that even a Frenchman like me could not do."

Alex was regretful and sad. During the World War, many French people applied to join the Southern African Expeditionary Force to fight in France, and many of them died fighting in France.

"Your responsibility lies in building cars in Los Angeles. You are also contributing to the world war. And your work is more important than mine. Without your hard work, we would not be as strong as we are on the front line." Qinling is very good at comforting people.

, with Alex's size, he probably wouldn't meet the standards if he wanted to join the army. A five-kilometer race could kill Alex.

"Hahahaha, thank you, I feel much better now." Alex felt much better immediately. The feeling of watching the war in the motherland but being unable to do anything was too uncomfortable. During the world war, Alex

Si donated nearly a year's salary, but Alex felt it was far from enough.

"The unit I served in was the 2nd Cavalry Division. I first fought under the Mediterranean Command, and then went to the Western Front with the Lord. I have to say that before the Lord came to the Western Front, the commanders on the Western Front performed poorly.

Yes, Haig and Nivelle are both butchers - sorry, please forgive my inappropriate choice of words -" Qin Ling then remembered that Alex was French and complained about the French Commander-in-Chief in front of the French.

Very good.

"It's not inappropriate. We can also see battle reports from the front line in Nyasaland. It's hard to imagine that frontline troops can suffer 100,000 casualties in one day. I was in the office at the time, and I really felt like the end of the world was coming. Britain and France

There are only a few people in the coalition forces, one hundred thousand a day. It won’t take long for all our troops to die - uh, sorry Qin, that’s not what I meant -” Alex also blurted out before he remembered that Qinling is also a member of the British and French coalition forces.

a member of.

"Hehehehe, it doesn't matter. It's okay for you to be in Los Angeles. The real end is coming for us on the front line. What we were most afraid of at that time was that Lord, like Hegneville, ordered us to line up to face the German machine guns.

To die, luckily your lord never does that. We do not directly attack the German positions, but bypass the German defense lines and land from behind the German defense lines, thereby opening up the situation in one fell swoop——" Qin Ling didn't care either. Thinking about the situation now, Qin Ling was still afraid.

Endless.

Before Alex could speak, a car passed by on the road outside the door.

The walls of the residences along Sunset Avenue are all made of wooden fences, which are not only beautiful in shape, but also painted with white paint, so that when passing by on the road outside, you can enjoy the views of the lawns and gardens in each yard.

As the car passed by, Didi honked its horn fiercely. A man in the cab stuck out his head and shouted: "Alex, who is the handsome guy next to you? Why don't you introduce me?"

"Hank, this is our new neighbor, do you want to come and sit for a while?" Alex invited warmly.

"Wait for me!" The overly enthusiastic guy retracted his head and the car stopped on the other side of Qin Ling's house.

"Qin, Hank is of German descent, so as long as you don't insult William II, you'll be fine." Alex reminded Qinling that the ethnic composition of southern Africa is indeed a bit complicated.

But the better thing is that Nyasaland governments at all levels pay great attention to this point. There were once predominantly German and French communities in Los Angeles, but they were soon deliberately split up by the Los Angeles city government.

In Los Angeles now, German families may live next to French families, and there are more British and Chinese families. Although this may cause some conflicts in the short term, in the long run, it will be more beneficial to all major ethnic groups.

peaceful coexistence among them.

This is the case here in the Qinling Mountains. Although Alex is French and Hank is German, it can be seen that they have a good relationship.

Hank didn't come empty-handed, he took a bottle of wine produced in Ziwei Town, and Alex immediately went to find a glass happily.

Then instead of having afternoon tea, drink wine instead.
