Zach probably didn’t expect that Rock would treat those Chinese workers like this.
But after thinking about it carefully, Zach understood Rock's intention.
These Chinese workers basically have no education, so it is unrealistic to ask them to have any long-term vision.
In this case, you can only seduce them with tangible benefits. When they see the benefits, their attitude will naturally become positive.
There will definitely be some stubborn people, and there is no need to waste time on them. There are few Chinese in Johannesburg, and there are many Chinese in the Qing Dynasty. It is enough to repatriate a few black sheep, so as not to stay in Johannesburg and ruin the reputation of the Chinese.
In the final analysis, Zach's current thinking mode is still stuck in his student days, and he has not transformed into colonial thinking in time. He only needs to consider it from the perspective of colonialism, and these problems can be easily solved.
At the end of the month, Nelson Holt completed his work, and Roque returned to Pretoria to prepare for the inauguration of the new Governor-General Alfred Milner.
As a senior inspector, Roque is not responsible for the security of the ceremony this time, but as a representative of the Pretoria Police Department, he can enter the room in a grand manner.
This is progress. A few months ago, when Alfred Milner welcomed Commander-in-Chief Roberts and Chief of Staff Kitchener of the Expeditionary Force, Rock was not even qualified to enter the Governor's estate.
Now, Roque is already a guest at the Governor's inauguration ceremony, which is a huge improvement.
After the inauguration ceremony, the Johannesburg Police Department will be established. Roque is the appointed chief of police. Henry has reported it to the Governor's Palace and Alfred Milner has approved it. After Alfred Milner's inauguration ceremony, Roque will
Gram is about to leave for Johannesburg to take up his post.
In order to match the identity of the police chief, Henry also applied to the Governor's Mansion to upgrade Roark's police rank to superintendent. This application has not yet been approved, but if there are no accidents, Alfred Milner will after taking office as the Governor.
Approve this request.
This is also a common practice. When the emperor ascends the throne, he must also grant amnesty to the world. When the governor takes office, he must also get some benefits for his subordinates. Otherwise, why would he sacrifice his life for you?
"Although the Johannesburg Police Department is below the Pretoria Police Department, its scale is actually similar to that of the Pretoria Police Department. Even because of the gold mines in Johannesburg, police deployment is more important than that of the General Administration.
"You can take some of the commandos to Johannesburg, but not all of them. I will equip you with a group of Zulu police officers, who are all scouts who have just retired from the battlefield. They are much easier to use than those Indians." Henry
Proudly, this is Henry's achievement again.
Insufficient police force is an old problem, not only in the Pretoria Police Station, but also in all police stations in the Cape.
The Chinese police have proven with their performance that they are better than the Indian and Boer police, so now both the Cape and the Transvaal are sending requests to the Huayong Camp of the Qing Dynasty to hire more Chinese police to maintain society.
Stability.
It should be noted here that the Cape Colony is a collective name. In fact, after the annexation of the Transvaal Republic and the Orange Free State, the Cape Colony was divided into four parts, each managed by two governors. The Transvaal
The current governor of Orange is Alfred Milner, and the current governor of Cape and Natal is Walter Henry Hutchinson.
The crux of the problem is that the scale of Huayong Camp is limited and it is impossible to provide a large number of police officers to Cape Town.
Therefore, Rock and Henry had previously proposed to apply to the Governor's Mansion to hire some Zulu scouts to enrich the police force.
This goal has now been achieved.
"No problem, leave Johannesburg to me." Roque did his part. Henry and Roque were both worried about leaving Johannesburg to anyone except Roque.
"Of course I feel relieved to leave it to you, but there seems to be a problem with funding. I applied to the Finance Bureau for 20,000 pounds, but the Finance Bureau only approved 10,000 pounds. You have to settle the difference yourself.
The Finance Bureau doesn't have any money now." Henry felt quite guilty, feeling that he didn't give Roark enough support.
In fact, it is enough. The Transvaal Provisional Government has just been established, and there are many things to be done. There are many places to spend money. The Governor's Office has to rely on the auction of gold mines to increase its income. The Finance Bureau can give 10,000 pounds, which is already
It’s because Roque once looked for office space for the Finance Bureau.
This is the role of good karma.
Of course, it is not difficult or even simple for Roque to make up the difference between building the police station.
There are gold mines everywhere in Johannesburg, and there will definitely be thirty or forty mines that will resume production after the auction. With so many mines, if each mine pays one thousand, it will be more than enough to build a police station.
This should be regarded as an apportionment, but it is an apportionment that the mine owners want. The establishment of a police station will ultimately provide services to those mines, so the police station goes to the mines to "beg for alms". If the mines do not give, then fine, if in the future
If the "workers" in the mine run away, don't expect the police station to dispatch police forces to help arrest them.
Don't even think about arresting them yourself. Inside the mine, it doesn't matter how many security guards and thugs the mine owner hires, but outside the mine, it's all the territory of the police station. The mine owner dares to do it without saying hello to the police station.
Use those security guards and thugs outside the mine, and what awaits them will be a ruthless attack from the police station.
And don’t expect the support of the big shots behind the mine for this kind of thing. Support may not necessarily lead to results. The police department is not without a back-up. The back-end of the police department is Governor Alfred Milner.
As I said, the background of the police station is Her Majesty the Queen.
The backstage of the mine is huge, can it be bigger than Her Majesty the Queen?
"Don't worry about money. I'll take care of this part. Keep the money you want for yourself. There are many places to spend money here at the General Administration." Roque thought wholeheartedly about Henry.
In fact, it’s not true. If Henry gave him all the money in one go, Rock wouldn’t refuse it. For things like funding, either he would give him enough money or he wouldn’t take a penny at all. Only then would Rock have something to say if there were any disputes in the future.<
/p>
You see, when the Johannesburg Police Department was established, the General Administration did not give a penny. The Johannesburg Police Department raised its own money to build the police station. There will definitely be many shortcomings, so it is inevitable that some mistakes will be made in the work.
Do you want the police department to do its job?
Well, first replenish the funds for me. If you don’t have money, you can’t do anything. The police also have to eat, drink and sleep. The emperor doesn’t need hungry soldiers——
So as long as Henry is taken care of, Rock will be able to sit back and relax. If the sky falls, Henry will hold him up.
"Locke, good brother!" Henry's face was really moved.
Surface brothers!
***The author has something to say***
Are the brothers back from vacation? I just came back. During May Day, I went to the largest supermarket in our town——
