In Nyasaland, you can unscrupulously spread the romantic affairs of King George V, you can unscrupulously evaluate the governing ability of the federal government Prime Minister Ade, and you can even openly question the administrative efficiency of the Nyasaland state government. The only thing you cannot slander is
It is Viscount Nyasaland.
Although Nyasaland is nominally a part of southern Africa, Roque's prestige in Nyasaland is unmatched by anyone. The federal government, the British Empire, and even the British royal family are not as prestigious as Roque in Nyasaland.
, Anyone who dares to be disrespectful to Rock in public, even if it is just disrespectful in language, will be hostile to all Nyasaland people.
What's more, Little Rock is also the seat of the Nyasaland state government. The name of this city is named after "Locke". All residents of Little Rock can see the city on the top of the mountain on the outskirts of Nyasaland as long as they raise their heads.
Compared with five years ago, Eagle Fort has nearly doubled the size of Little Rock. However, Eagle Fort is still located on the outskirts of Little Rock. Even during city planning, Eagle Fort was deliberately avoided.
What's more, the Oak Bar was originally Ada's property, and the relationship between Ada and Rock was well known in southern Africa, so these Chinese Americans were thrown into Brad's Bar before they knew what was going on.
The secret prison of the office.
"This is nonsense. Get them out quickly and send them to Madame Capet's Hotel for proper accommodation. Your Brad office is really awesome." Anton was immediately distressed when he knew about this, but he didn't know how to blame it.
Who has no choice but to take it out on Xia Jiu, the person in charge of Brad’s office?
Xia Jiu was just transferred to Brad's office at the beginning of this year. Southern Africa has actually made great breakthroughs in prosthetics. At least Xia Jiu can be equipped with a more convenient prosthesis. However, Xia Jiu doesn't want to change it. Now the iron hook has
It has become a part of Xia Jiu's body. Without the iron hook, Xia Jiu will be very uncomfortable.
"There is nothing serious in Brad's office. We are just fulfilling our accusations."
Anton Martin is at least on the same level as Buck Sam.
Anton now turns to politics and serves as the governor of Nyasaland, Martin is at home in the military, Buck serves as the deputy governor of the Transvaal, deputy chairman of the Liberal Party Committee, and is Roque's number one spokesman in the federal government, and Sam is the head of the Umbrella Company.
The general manager and members of the Southern African Congress are all powerful figures who take charge of their own affairs.
"Lao Jiu, don't blame me for not reminding you, they are very important to the lord." Anton could still hold back his temper. The old brothers are all qualified and their working methods should not be too rough.
"What's so important? These people have been in Nyasaland for more than half a month. I've never seen them do anything serious except drinking and asking for money." Xia Jiu disagreed. It was obvious that the American lifestyle was not suitable for them.
Southern Africa.
"Stop talking nonsense, they are all people who do great things, let them go quickly." Anton doesn't talk nonsense, the bird knows the ambition of the swan. In Roque's words, better rest is for better work.<
/p>
"They have already made 150,000 rand in Nyasaland during this period, and they are planning to go to the Transvaal next. This is making us Chinese in southern Africa look like fools." Xia Jiu's attitude was a bit fierce. "It's called fundraising, not cheating." Anton actually admires those Americans. Most Chinese, including Chinese from southern Africa, will enthusiastically embrace their new life after immigrating. Very few people will.
Take the initiative to do something for the Chinese in the Qing Dynasty.
Even Luo Ke continued to transport grain to the Qing Dynasty over the years, but his ultimate purpose was to serve immigrants.
"Empty words with white teeth are nothing but liars. You are the governor and no one dares to lie to you. We have dealt with too many liars." Xia Jiu still resisted, saying the same thing. The forest is big and there are all kinds of birds. If you want to
If Rock hadn't risen so quickly, everyone might still be making a broken bowl on the pier in Cape Town to deceive people.
"Lao Jiu, are you willing to give up everything you have now and return to the Qing Dynasty to rebel and overthrow the Qing government?" Anton put himself in his shoes and asked himself that he couldn't do it.
"Why?" Xia Jiu immediately became furious.
"That's alright, let him go." Anton stopped being reasonable.
"Aren't they liars?" Xia Jiu was half convinced.
"No!"
"If they are really not liars, I will offer them wine to apologize and donate another year's salary to them." Xia Jiu is not unreasonable. As the person in charge of Brad's office, Xia Jiu's salary is still very high, 1,500 RMB per year.
rand.
Looking back, Rock was not stingy either.
However, Roque did not donate money, but gave a batch of weapons. Compared with cash, weapons can solve urgent needs better.
Originally, Rock wanted to meet those Americans and talk to them about how to overthrow the Qing government more quickly, but on the night of July 30, miners in a gold mine in Johannesburg rioted, and Rock rushed to Johannesburg urgently.
, just forget about this matter.
In fact, it doesn’t matter whether we meet or not. With the intervention of the Umbrella Company, it is not difficult to overthrow the rule of the Qing government. The mercenaries of the Umbrella Company are all experts in this regard.
When the train passed Salisbury, Stoudemire also boarded the train and went to Johannesburg with Rock.
"The gold mine where the riot occurred is called Marcellus. It was just changed to this name last year. The new boss seems to be French. The manager of this gold mine is confused. What kind of democratic policy is implemented in the mine to allow workers to work in the mine?
A union was formed, but the workers went on strike as soon as the union was established. Aiden and the manager went to negotiate terms with the workers, but were detained by the workers. Now the miners have closed the mine, threatening to blow up the mine if they don't agree to their terms."
Stoudemire is the president of the Johannesburg Mining Union, and Stoudemire is fully responsible for what happened.
"The French people are crazy about elections. If this continues, the managers of the mines may have to be elected." Roque still doesn't know if this matter has anything to do with the MPs from Orange. That won't happen until now.
We will learn more about the situation after Johannesburg.
"Aiden also lost his mind. He sent the military and police directly to the scene. Anyone who dared to resist was shot. There was no way to cause trouble. Now it's better. He took the initiative to take people as hostages. He deserved to die." Aiden is the secretary-general of the Mining Alliance.
, Stoudemire is away from Johannesburg all year round, and Ayden is responsible for the specific affairs of the Mining Alliance.
Rock was speechless. If the manager of the mine is naive and has just arrived in Johannesburg and does not understand the situation in Johannesburg, then Aiden can be regarded as a native of southern Africa and has worked in Johannesburg for many years. It is really inappropriate to make such a mistake.
.
The train was speeding along, and when it passed Pretoria, Owen and Sidney Milner also got on the train. It was already August 1st when it arrived in Johannesburg. At this time, it had been more than 48 hours since Aiden was detained.
The person who came to pick him up was Johannesburg Police Chief Gothe. When Rock saw Gothe, he was furious: "How could it be like this?"
Johannesburg's gold is important to both southern Africa and the British government. Southern Africa needs Johannesburg's gold to provide development funds, and the British government needs Johannesburg's gold to stabilize the gold content of the pound, so London and Pretoria are very concerned about it.
"It happened a bit suddenly. Last month the mine terminated the security contract with the umbrella company, and the mine organized its own security personnel. I reminded Black at that time." Gothe's eyes flickered a little, and Rock immediately understood that it should be
There is another hidden secret.
After the establishment of Umbrella Company, it took over the security work of almost all the mines in Johannesburg. Over the years, there has indeed been no similar incident in the mines in Johannesburg, so some people think that the money earned by Umbrella Company is too easy. p>
Terminating a contract is like a breach of a dam. Once you open the door and no accident occurs, more and more mines and umbrella companies will terminate their contracts, so it’s really hard to tell the inside story of this matter.
, maybe there is also the deliberate connivance of the Umbrella Company and the Johannesburg Police Department, otherwise the commotion would not have been so big.
Rock was also busy with work during this time and ignored Johannesburg, so Rock just glanced at Gothe lightly, and then got into the same car with Sidney Milner.
"It can't be related to the Umbrella Company." Sidney Milner is not stupid either.
"There shouldn't be a direct relationship." Roark said frankly. He and Sidney Milner had already formed a community of interests. If something really happened, Roark and Sidney Milner would have to work together to suppress the matter.<
/p>
"The production of gold cannot be affected." Sidney Milnati demanded, which was also the purpose of Adelaide sending Sidney Milner here.
"No." Rock said decisively. Johannesburg's gold production has actually always been above the standard. There are dozens of gold mines in the Rand mining area. If one or two of them stop production, it will not have a big impact on the whole.
"How are you going to deal with it?" Sidney Milner was curious.
"Catch what needs to be caught, kill what needs to be killed, some people's hands are just too long." Rock killed decisively. Now everyone knows that there is a lot of gold in Johannesburg, and capitalists all over the world want to get a share of the pie, except the French.
, there is also a British and American mining company that is also acquiring gold mines in Johannesburg, and it has acquired three now.
This Anglo-American Mining Company is not the same as the Anglo-American Petroleum Company in the peninsula, but the capital behind it is both large British and American companies.
"We must pay attention to the impact. The gold in our southern Africa still belongs to our southern Africa." Sidney Milner also has his own little calculation.
"Don't worry, wait a minute -" Rock knows what Sidney Milner means. This is a gold mine, a hugely profitable business, everyone wants it.
