Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 1460 The Paradox of Happiness

People can still exercise restraint when dealing with the sailors of the Atlantic Fleet. After all, the heavy machine guns on the armored vehicles don't look easy to mess with.

People don't have that much patience when dealing with veterans with a broken arm. There is no such thing as respecting the old and loving the young in jungle society. The essence of the law of the jungle is the strong.

Maybe some people think that the behavior of veterans helping sailors to persuade people to go home is still worshiping foreigners. In many cases, traitors are more hateful than enemies.

The people around were also stunned by this sudden incident. The moment the veteran fell to the ground, blood gushed out from the veteran's head, and he couldn't cover it. Now, looking at the military medal on the veteran's chest, the color is more eye-catching than the blood on his head. , even more dazzling, like a blood-colored mirror, reflecting the most unbearable darkness in people's hearts.

When the veteran was knocked down by a stone, Levi's subconsciously raised his gun and pointed in the direction the stone was coming from.

Several other sailors also reacted quickly. Two sailors supported the veteran and moved towards the armored vehicle. Another two sailors raised their guns and quickly came over to line up with Levi's, blocking the veteran and the crowd to prevent further damage to the veteran.

This is how you treat your comrades.

"Murder, the southern Africans are killing—" Someone in the crowd suddenly yelled, and the entire Victory Square suddenly became chaotic.

Bah!
Finally, some sailors couldn't help but shoot. The southern African army didn't fight back when they were beaten, and they would definitely fight back when they were attacked.

The gunshots caused chaos on a wider scale. Countless people were running wildly. Unprepared old people were pushed to the ground, panicked children were crying, and vigorous young people ran and cursed, as if this would make the Republic of Congo stronger.

"Don't shoot, move closer to the armored vehicle—" Levi's remained calm. No matter what happened, it was only serious to defend first. At this time, the armored vehicle was undoubtedly the strongest defensive fulcrum.

"Sir, I'm fine, please don't hurt them, please understand—" The veteran with simple wounds still had blood on his face, his face was bleak, and his smile was full of bitterness.

"I understand—" Levi's emotions were complicated. He was born and raised in southern Africa, and he had never experienced the feeling of a veteran.

How should I put it, it's like the feeling of misfortune in the family. My son doesn't live up to expectations, but he is my son after all, and the whole world will abandon him. I won't—

The injury on the veteran's head was still relatively serious. Levi's wanted to send the veteran to the hospital, but the veteran refused to go.

When the veteran said goodbye, Levi's touched only two rands all over his body.

After all, it's a mission, so you don't carry too much cash with you.

Just when Levi was hesitating, a sailor handed Levi a gold coin.

Southern Africa is the only country in the world that still issues gold coins.

Then another coin, two—

"Sir, bring these, we can't help much—" Levi's handed the money to the veteran.

The veteran who had suffered a broken head and hurt his heart just now and didn't shed tears suddenly had red eye circles, and he was speechless in a murmur.

Levi tried his best to squeeze out a smile, and the veteran saluted vigorously with his remaining arms, but his back instantly hunched after turning around.

Rock didn't know what happened in Victory Square. On the first night of the implementation of military control on Boma, more than 100 Boma people were arrested. Being directly arrested and using heavy codes in troubled times, Rock never relents in this regard.

"Perhaps we can take this opportunity to clean up Boma. There are still many people in Boma who can't understand the situation. Some people even have illusions about Belgium, and some people are immersed in the fantasy of the colonial era. The Republic of Congo has already Entering a new era, they hide in their houses and ignore the changing times.” Benson Moore, whose son graduated from secondary school this year with insufficient grades to get into Nyasaland University, then Benson Moore Al donated [-] rand to Nyasaland University.

Although most of the time, Nyasaland University can guarantee fairness and justice when admitting new students, but sometimes it still has to make exceptions to admit some students. This is the reality.

Don't say that Nyasaland University is a philistine. The [-] rand donated by Benson Moore is [-] times the annual tuition fees of normally admitted students. The fees charged by Nyasaland University will be in the form of scholarships. Students with good grades are subsidized, which can be regarded as taking from the people and using them from the people.

"How is the condition of Speaker Augustus?" Rock is not in a hurry, he now has plenty of time to sort out slowly.

"The speaker's illness has been repeated many times since last year, with good times and bad times. He has now resigned as the party chairman, and his control over the parliament is not as good as before." Benson Moore told the truth, Augustus is really not Pretending to be sick, otherwise he should have come here to show his loyalty.

"Then do as you decide, Louis and Willses will assist you." Rock is quite satisfied with Louis Ben and Willses. Dissatisfied with Rock.

As for Wilses, the "opposition president" of the Republic of Congo, he is far more powerful than he appears on the surface. If Augustus's health cannot improve, then Wilses will replace Augustus. best candidate.

The next day, Rock personally went to the hospital to visit Augustus.

Augustus was indeed very ill. He was hospitalized last winter for a stroke caused by high blood pressure. His condition has not improved and he is now unable to preside over the parliament.

"I'm sorry, my lord, the Republic of the Congo is in its most dangerous period, but I can't continue to serve the Republic of the Congo—" Augustus was already terminally ill, sometimes awake and sometimes in a coma, even when he was awake, it was difficult to speak.

"Your Excellency, Speaker, take a good rest, you've done enough—" Luo Ke gently comforted, the people of the previous generation are drawing their curtains down one after another, which is really sad.

"I'm old and my days are numbered. I was worried before, but now I feel relieved when I see you. Lord, please treat the Congolese well. They will become your most loyal servants—" Augustus said It sounds like an old colony, and it feels like telling the last words.

"Don't worry, no one will enslave the Congolese." Rock didn't like Augustus' tone.

"Hehe, if you have to rely on someone to survive, why not find a good master." Although Augustus was slurred, his thinking was still clear.

The master-servant relationship sounds a bit insulting, but in fact, let alone 1922, it still exists in 2022.

The current master-servant relationship is not the previous relationship similar to that between slave owners and slaves. It is more of a new type of employment relationship, but it is closer than the employment relationship. Responsible for life, even if Zach is old and frail and unable to serve Rock, Rock is also responsible for Zack's life.

This is better than working hard for someone or a certain company for a lifetime, but being abandoned because of the decline in competitiveness. Compared with Rock, he is a real hooligan.

Three days later, the Republic of Congo's parliament passed a resolution temporarily appointing Benson Moore as interim president of the Republic of Congo until a new president is elected.

The first thing Benson Moore did after he took office was to appoint Louis Benn as Prime Minister of the Republic of Congo.

At the same time, the Southern African Union troops have also begun to suppress the rebels. Rock is not worried about this issue at all. If the rebels can beat the northern division of Rhodesia, they will be damned.

As Roque envisioned, Augustus was forced to resign as speaker of the Republic of Congo's parliament due to health reasons after appointing Benson Moore as interim president.

The new speaker is indeed Wilseth. The two identities of the president of the Rifle Association and the head of the Military Service Agency have brought Wilses a lot of points, but his business background has been ignored.

In order to stabilize the situation in the Republic of Congo, Roque stayed in Boma until November before returning to southern Africa.

Southern Africa is also in trouble now, but this trouble is not insufficient economic development, but too fast economic development has caused some new problems.

"The situation is like this. The Johannesburg City Government wants us to relocate the textile factory to a more remote place. The new factory site is more than [-] kilometers away from Johannesburg. Although the Johannesburg City Government promised to provide all facilities for the construction of the factory, many of our workers They have already settled in Johannesburg, and it is impossible for them to go to work in a factory a hundred kilometers away." Phyllis rarely asked Rock for help, and the textile factory was an industry under Felice's name.

Rock originally set up a textile factory to meet the deep processing needs of Johannesburg farms for textiles. Before the establishment of the textile factory, most of the wool in southern Africa had to be shipped to the British textile factory for processing. Not much profit.

After the establishment of the textile factory, the local wool in Johannesburg was processed locally, which was cheaper and more profitable. Phyllis simply regarded the textile factory as charity and gave more profits to the farmers, which led to the rapid development of the Johannesburg farm.

The profits of textile factories are not high, so the tax revenue generated is naturally not much, and textile factories are still heavily polluting enterprises. At the moment when Pretoria is vigorously developing the tourism industry, the Johannesburg city government has higher requirements for the environment.

"I have already contacted Professor Kausol. Even if we start research on pollution now, it will take at least a few years to find an effective method, and too much investment will definitely affect the profit of the factory, which in turn will affect the income of the farmer. Income, my dear, what should I do?" Phyllis looked sad, and her little face was wrinkled into a ball.

"It's okay, leave it to me, leave it all to me—" Rock is obliged to share his wife's worries. With the development of southern Africa, this problem has become more and more prominent, and it is time to solve it.
