Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 1467
The value of badges and titles is difficult to measure with specific monetary figures. Roque must be paying attention to actual interests now, and no matter how big the title is, Rock will not forget his original intention.

Stoudemire is different, he has now been granted the title of Viscount of the Empire, what Cecil Rhodes did not get, Stoudemire has now obtained, but Stoudemire still enjoys it.

Less than 20 people participated in the award ceremony, and one official from the British mainland was particularly noticeable. Since the start of the award ceremony, he has shown great hospitality to Ida. around.

"This guy's name is Philip Edward Sassoon. You should be familiar with his surname. They are Jews from India. They made their fortunes by selling opium to the Qing Dynasty. His grandfather's father is David Sassoon. He is one of the richest men in Bombay. One, the Opium War was promoted by his family—" Henry introduced softly in Roque's ear, and Roque immediately became vigilant, damn, this is the hatred of the country and the family.

To be honest, Rock is not clear about this period of history.

According to Rock's education, the Opium War was jointly initiated by Britain and France, and there seems to be no factor of the Sassoon family.

But since Henry said so, it must not be groundless. What Rock knew was that the Opium War had a lot to do with the British East India Company. Indian family management.

"You have to be careful, this guy claims to be the most perfect bachelor in Britain at present, and Minister Capet is the most attractive rose—" Henry soured out of the sky, and Ada was Henry's white moonlight or cinnabar mole.

Rock smiled and said nothing. If this Sassoon family was really related to the Opium War, then maybe Rock would have a good chat with this Mr. Sassoon.

While Rock and Henry were whispering, Ada was already annoying.

"Beautiful lady, you are like the most dazzling sunrise in spring, shining on every inch of the earth, you are like a soft cloud, soothing every dirty and unbearable heart, your elegant and noble temperament makes people feel ashamed , people can't help but bow down under your pleated skirt—" Philip Edward Sassoon chattered endlessly, launching a fierce attack on Ada.

This guy is indeed outstanding. His great-grandfather David Sassoon made his fortune by selling opium to the Far East. His mother is Irene Caroline Rose, the daughter of Baron Gustav Rothschild. Childe, his sister, Sybill Sassoon, was married to the Marquess of Cholmondely.

As for Philip Sassoon himself, he has been elected to the House of Commons for Hayes since 1912, succeeding his father Edward Albert Sassoon, who had previously served as Douglas Haig during the First World War Private Secretary to David Lloyd George, and later Parliamentary Private Secretary to David Lloyd George.

Philip Sassoon is now Deputy Minister of the Air Force.

Philip Sassoon came to Southern Africa this time with the purpose of discussing with Southern Africa about the joint production of Air Force fighter jets.

During the World War, Edward Shipyard produced two aircraft carriers and a total of 270 carrier-based aircraft for the Royal Navy. These two aircraft carriers played an important role during the World War and were well received by the Royal Navy.

During the World War, Southern Africa also produced more than 1300 fighter jets and bombers for the United Kingdom, making outstanding contributions to the victory of the Allied Powers over the Allied Powers.

After the end of the World War, in order to widen the gap with other countries, Southern Africa gradually phased out the combat aircraft used during the World War and began to replace them with more advanced fighters.

The UK also wants to change, but the UK has no money, so the UK wants to cooperate with southern Africa in production.

Of course, this cooperative production comes at a price. As the suzerain country, the United Kingdom is bound to give Southern Africa a certain degree of technology transfer fees, or other economic compensation. Philip Sassoon came to Southern Africa for this matter.

As the most perfect bachelor in Britain now, Philip Sassoon thinks highly of himself. After meeting Ada, he was astonished and launched a fierce attack on Ada. He thought that Ada would be as beautiful as those noble ladies in London. Fall soon.

Unexpectedly, Ada did not pretend to speak to Philip Sassoon at all. When Philip Sassoon was chattering, Ada directly retorted: "Mr. Sassoon, on this solemn and solemn occasion, I think you should keep quiet and don't let others Laugh at your frivolity."

Oh, this "frivolous" is used too well, Philip Sassoon is not a shameless person, he can be called a "perfect bachelor", Philip Sassoon still has restraint, so Philip Sassoon keeps Be quiet until the ceremony is over.

Unexpectedly, just after the ceremony, Ada came directly to Rock to avoid Philip Sassoon's entanglement.

"What did that guy say to you?" Henry said with a look on his face.

"Shut up!" Ada kept smiling and squeezed her teeth out.

Don't look at Henry as Rock's eldest brother. In fact, the relationship between Henry and Ida is also very good. White people are like this. One size belongs to one size. As long as Ada doesn't destroy the family of Rock and Phyllis, Henry will be happy. Can turn a blind eye.

Hey, that thing about men is so normal.

"It seems that someone doesn't give up—" Stoudemire didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement. Philip Sassoon really didn't give up and was walking towards Phyllis and Rock.

"God, someone help me—" Ada was so lonely and helpless at this time, which immediately attracted strange looks from Henry and Stoudemire.

What to wear?

Who in southern Africa doesn't know that Ida is a rose with thorns, just in front of Roque, Ida is as delicate and pitiful as a little girl, and if Roque is not around, Ida will transform into a queen in minutes.

Rock just smiled, and casually picked up a glass of champagne and handed it to Ada.

Ada immediately beamed with complacency.

"Lord Nyasaland, Lord Farwalt, Lord Rhodesia, good evening—" Philip Sassoon was still polite.

"Hello, my lord——" Rock replied with a smile. Philip Sassoon's title is a knight, and he is not as popular as a marquis, not even a baronet.

"My lord, I am only representing my father to express his respect to you." Philip Sassoon also knew that he was not worthy enough, so he directly carried his father out.

Philip Sassoon's father appears to have been a baronet, vice-president of the Society of Jewish Studies in London and the Anglo-Jewish Society.

As for names—

unimportant.

Rock didn't speak, and watched Philip Sassoon's performance quietly.

"Lord Nyasaland, I just happened to be looking for you. You know, the Royal Air Force and the Royal Navy are preparing to upgrade their combat aircraft—" Philip Sassoon said, paying attention to Rock's expression.

Rock kept smiling, kindly and restrained, which probably gave Philip Sassoon an illusion.

"——So, I have come to you on the order of His Excellency the Prime Minister, and I hope to have further and closer cooperation with Nyasaran Air. The Royal Air Force and Royal Navy hope that Nyasaran Air can provide the most advanced technology, as well as skilled The most advanced aircraft in the world are produced in the United Kingdom. Of course, the Royal Navy and the Royal Air Force will pay part of the fee to Nyasaland Air as appropriate. Of course, the name of this fee cannot be the technology transfer fee, but the Royal Air Force And the Royal Navy's subsidy to the Ministry of Defense of Southern Africa—" Philip Sassoon was talking endlessly, and before Rock could speak, Henry and Stoudemire burst out laughing.

"Wahhahahaha, is this guy crazy? What did he just say? Subsidy? Wahahahaha, Niasaran Airlines will need the subsidy of the Royal Air Force? You just laugh to death—" Stoudemire laughed directly Tears, this is probably the funniest joke he has ever heard in his life.

"Hehe—Sir Sassoon, right? I don't know what you're thinking—sorry, I don't care either—I just think you're a little whimsical—did you mean what you said just now, Your Excellency the Prime Minister?" Henry went up Out of breath, no one has spoken to Rock in such a tone for many years.

"Lord Rhodesia, Lord Farwalt, what do you mean?" Philip Sassoon's face was as black as a pan. He never expected that Henry and Stoudemire's attitudes were so bad.

This time it was Rock who stepped forward. Before Henry and Stoudemire could speak, Rock raised his hand and made a gesture of waiting.

At this time, Rock's status was seen. Just as Rock raised his hand, Stoudemire, who was about to speak, immediately shut up.

Henry opened his mouth wide and still kept laughing, but he didn't laugh out loud.

The people next to me seemed to have noticed the strangeness here, and the silence around them was a bit scary for a while.

"Sir Sassoon, if the Royal Navy and the Royal Air Force want to obtain the most advanced fighter technology, then please show your sincerity. Sorry, Nyasaran Air does not need subsidies from the Royal Navy and Royal Air Force. Our technology- "Rock paused, and in Philip Sassoon's expectant eyes, he lightly raised a finger: "——It's priceless!"

The expression of Philip Sassoon is simply wonderful. He really misjudged the situation. These feudal officials in southern Africa are far more difficult to deal with than Philip Sassoon imagined. The most perfect bachelor is in the circle of ladies It is indeed very popular here, but among the straight men in southern Africa, Philip Sassoon seems to have no market.

At this moment, Ada took Rock's arm calmly.

Henry's face was as smelly as if he stepped on dog shit when he went out in the morning.

In the distance, Philip was chatting happily with Kitchener and Ade. He didn't know what happy things they were talking about. The three old men all laughed in a wicked way, and Ade, who was the most restrained, laughed heartily.

Stoudemire looked at Philip Sassoon with a smile on his face, but his eyes were actually colder than the ice cubes in the glass.

Philip Sassoon suddenly felt cold all over his body.
