Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 1082 Vest

A residential area consisting of only a dozen households cannot actually reach the size of a town. The population of Nanshan Town is less than 100, and there are still a few families of new immigrants who have not arrived in time. The houses have already been built, and it is still the largest town in southern Africa. The most common kind of wooden house, the biggest advantage of this kind of house is that it is simple and convenient. If the materials are sufficient, a dozen people can build one in a day, and it will not be a problem to use it for more than ten years.

Because Chinese families usually have a large population, the current wooden house has also improved compared with the previous one. The area of ​​the room is correspondingly reduced, the number is larger, and the utilization rate of the attic is more reasonable. There is also a separate stable and warehouse. , The lawn in front of the house and the garden behind the house have also reserved an area, but most Chinese will still use these fragmented land to grow some vegetables and fruits, and it is always pragmatism.

In fact, Rock doesn’t like lawns and gardens either. Caucasians have colonized the world for hundreds of years and started chasing spiritual affluence when they have no worries about food and clothing. Besides.

"There is no shortage of food for the time being. Port Elizabeth will send food every month. Although most of them are potatoes and sweet potatoes, some are good to eat—" Ma Zhuang's home is also in Nanshan Town, but his family still In Nyasaland, there are two maids hired from the Persian Empire and the Ottoman Empire in the family in Nanshan Town.

They say they are maids, but they are actually bought female slaves. The Umbrella Company and Adan Company do not stop this situation. Mercenaries are also young. It is normal to have such needs, and it is easy to become abnormal if you hold them for a long time. , Maybe it will cause serious social problems, it is better to block it than to sparse it.

"Reed, try to enrich the food as much as possible. I think there are more children here. It is the time when they are growing up. It is not enough to only eat potatoes and sweet potatoes." Meat, eggs and duck eggs must always have one every day.

When Rock and Li De walked into Nanshan Town, there were many children who had just arrived in Nanshan Town by the side of the road. They looked a little thin and their clothes didn't fit well, but their hygiene was not bad. At least the face is clean, and the feet are wearing shoes.

The thin body is mainly due to malnutrition in the past. Don't worry about this problem. As long as the nutrition can keep up, it can be adjusted within a few months.

"We are popularizing public education here, gathering children from more than a dozen villages and towns into one school, just like we used to do in Ziwei Town, the school is full-time boarding, and we go home once a week, and go to town once a week. They can be picked up in a horse-drawn carriage, and will be sent back in a horse-drawn carriage on Monday, and the school is currently under construction, and these children have to study in the preparatory course for a year or two, shut down the language first, and then start to study normal courses." Li De has arrangements, and with the public education system in southern Africa as a reference, it is also very easy to popularize public education in the Mesopotamia.

The key is the number of teachers. As long as there are enough teachers and no expense is spared, it is not difficult to establish a sound and high-level public education system. It mainly depends on the determination of government agencies.

For Port Elizabeth, funding is definitely not a problem. Teachers have to be hired from southern Africa. This requires the coordination of governments at all levels in southern Africa. After all, the public education systems in some states in southern Africa are not perfect.

Rock was very satisfied with Li De's arrangement. He casually walked into a resident's house by the road. Potatoes were boiled in an iron pot, and canned food from Adan's company was placed on the dining table. The hostess was busy cooking. A half-grown child was feeding the sheep. The sheep's belly was bulging, obviously pregnant with cubs.

"We bought these sheep from the Persian Empire. It is cheaper than transporting them from southern Africa. However, the quality of the wool is not very good. We still need to ask experts to improve the breed. The most suitable crops here are wheat and sheep. The output of cotton and dates is also very high. We still want to transplant the farm model in southern Africa. The farm mainly grows cash crops, and the food can meet the needs of rations. The nutrition is mainly provided by poultry and eggs. There are many cows, horses and sheep here. There are many people who raise donkeys, and I heard that someone is trying to make glue, and it would be great if they succeed.” Li De introduced it in detail, and Rock was stunned for a moment before realizing what “glue” is.

Let’s not talk about whether it is glued or not, donkey meat is really delicious, especially when it is served with fire, not braised, the taste is simply wonderful.

"How about the law and order here?" Rock didn't worry about the lives of these Chinese, as long as they created a stable environment, they could always create miracles.

What Rock is worried about is the Persian Empire. Judging from the situation provided by Li De, Lisa Khan's patience is getting less and less, and maybe an uprising is imminent. If it is not handled well, the Mesopotamia will be affected.

In addition to the Persian Empire, the Asia Minor Peninsula is actually a hidden danger. After the collapse of the Ottoman Empire, some Ottomans under the leadership of Kemal have declared independence on the Asia Minor Peninsula. This independence has not been recognized by the Allied Powers. The Allied Powers have not divided up the Asia Minor Peninsula It was agreed that if the Asia Minor peninsula fell into war in the future, the Mesopotamia would inevitably be affected.

The Mesopotamia also belongs to the territory of the Ottoman Empire. Although Rock has no ambitions for the Asia Minor Peninsula, it does not mean that Kemal will allow Port Elizabeth to annex the Mesopotamia. The mood of the river basin will be more determined.

"The law and order issue is okay. The Umbrella Company and the Najd Sultanate have formed a joint patrol team. There are patrol teams patrolling the border every day. Once a problem is found, more than 1 troops can be assembled within a day. We are also organizing these New immigrants receive training and distribute weapons to them. If there is a war, the new immigrants can organize as quickly as possible.” Li De was prepared, the world war had just ended, and the machines in the Nyasaland Arsenal were still producing, but The weapons produced have quietly changed from machine guns and rifles to pistols and shotguns. It is enough for ordinary people to equip these light weapons, and powerful weapons can only be mastered by the army.

Rock is noncommittal. Although Li De's arrangement looks good, there are still hidden dangers. Professional things need to be done by professional people. Rock is going to transfer some staff from the staff department to join the umbrella company.

Although the Umbrella Company is powerful, it is still lacking in many things. In Rock's memory, those famous defense companies in the 21st century have an advisory group composed of generals. The role of these advisory groups is not only to win business, they give The suggestions are also more professional and more realistic.

I ate lunch at Ma Zhuang's house. The two maids looked like they were both under 18 years old. They were beasts!

This is also normal. In another time and space, the Middle East has been the most rampant area for human trafficking until the 21st century. Many girls are forced to marry when they are teenagers. At least these two girls will not be abused here in Ma Zhuang.

Lunch is a rare potato stew and canned food of various flavors. As the mayor of the town, Ma Zhuang always has some privileges that ordinary people do not have, which is also a part of life.

While Rock was eating, there were sporadic gunshots in the distance.

There was no need for Rock to order, and there were guards driving armored vehicles to check immediately. This is the most suitable environment for using armored vehicles. The terrain is flat and the climate is dry. The key is that the enemy cannot have heavy weapons that can pose a threat to armored vehicles. Two or three If you go with armored vehicles, you don't have to be afraid even if you encounter a division of the enemy.

If you can't beat it, at least you can escape.

Not long after the armored vehicle passed, there was intense gunfire, mixed with the explosion of the vehicle-mounted grenade launcher "Boom, Boom, Boom". In fact, within a few minutes, the gunfire and explosion had subsided, and Rock walked out of the room. , I found that men, women and children in Nanshan Town should take action against you. The men stood at the gate of the courtyard with ashen faces and looked at the place where the gunshots came from. Prepared for battle, the hostess was watching behind the closed curtains. If the enemy really broke into Nanshan Town, they would not stay out of it.

Rock didn't speak, and his heart was still heavy. These Chinese came to Mesopotamia because of their trust in southern Africa, but they didn't enjoy a quiet life in Mesopotamia, which made Roque feel the huge pressure on his shoulders .

The same is true for Li De, but his mood is not as heavy as Rock's. Although these Chinese are facing threats, they are far different from the precarious life in China. In Mesopotamia, new immigrants at least have umbrella companies. Mercenaries protect them, and in the past, the army was the main reason for the people's livelihood.

It’s no joke that banditry is like a comb, and military affairs are like a grate. There is also a saying that “officials are like shaving.” This is not a short sentence deliberately made up for rhyme, but a life experience that people have summed up after encountering various injustices.

The intense gunfire didn't last long before it began to fade away, and then an armored vehicle came back to report.

Sure enough, they were horse bandits from the Persian Empire. There were about 60 to [-] people in total. It was a pity that they encountered patrols here shortly after crossing the border, and then the two sides exchanged fire.

If there were no armored vehicles, there might be a tie. With the addition of armored vehicles, the battle would be one-sided. Now that the horse bandits have been defeated, there are two armored vehicles chasing them. They must drive out the horse bandits before returning.

The armored vehicle that came back to report also brought back several rifles equipped by the horse bandits. Li De casually picked up one and took a look at it and scolded: "Bastard horse bandits, this is the regular army of the Persian Empire—Lisa Khan Tai Excessive, what on earth is he trying to do?"

Li De was furious, I know you even when you take off your vest.

ps: Although it is a little late, I still wish the brothers a healthy Dragon Boat Festival——
