Chapter 1599 Magic
Westerners like to use their own names as company names, such as Maserati, Louis Vuitton and so on.

In fact, the same is true in southern Africa. There are many shops in Los Angeles, with the name or surname of the shop owner as the name of the shop, such as Chen Ji Twist, Zhang Ji Roast Duck, etc., but it is extremely rare to dare to use "Lock" as the name, even if it is the shop owner. The name is Locke, or the surname is Locke, which is more or less taboo.

East India is still a bit far from southern Africa, and British Malaya is even farther away. It is normal to use "Locke" as the company name.

Of course, in the eyes of Wu Xing and Fox, this is definitely not the case.

When Wu Xing pulled out his pistol, Xu Ge didn't need to introduce it. The employees of the so-called "Locke Company" just explained everything with snot and tears.

Locke Company is indeed a Malayan company, but the owner of the company is not named Locke, and this name is used entirely for the sake of Rock's reputation.

Not long ago, Rock Company bought Batam Island at a low price, planning to develop Batam’s tourism resources. The residents on the island were all driven away by Rock Company. Because Xu Ge graduated from Nyasaland University, Rock Company I didn't dare to be tough, so I delayed until now.

Regardless of Xu Ge's delicate and weak appearance, Nyasaland University's background is still very loud. In this regard, you can refer to Peking University students who sell pork. Wherever the background is, as long as someone is willing to give it a hand, it will flourish in minutes.

The same is true for Xu Ge. Although Xu Ge looks rather down and out now, most of Xu Ge's classmates are doing well. If Locke Company treats Xu Ge the same way it treats the natives of Batam Island, it may lead to disaster. , so the Locke Company only dared to maintain the level of harassment every now and then, and did not dare to kick the fence hard.

"We never dared to embarrass Ms. Xu. We helped send the children to the hospital twice when they got sick. If you don't believe me, you can ask Ms. Xu. If Ms. Xu is willing to move, our boss is even willing to live in Lion City, Coconut City, or Penang. City to help Ms. Xu settle down—" The leader cried bitterly, and Wu Xing and Fox were in a difficult situation.

It really doesn’t sound like the Locke Company is domineering. On the contrary, Xu Ge is a bit of a nail-biter. In all fairness, Wu Xing can understand what Locke Company is, and the Umbrella Company is not a kind person. .

Not to mention, when the East India Fleet bought Tekong Island, Tekong Island also had residents. At that time, the relocation work was in charge of the Umbrella Company. To be honest, if the Locke Company can really do it, then the Locke Company is better than the Umbrella Company. better.

"Heh, if it wasn't for the greeting from the Yecheng City government, you would have been so kind?" Xu Ge immediately exposed it and told a joke: The conscience of capitalists——

Wu Xing suddenly realized.

It is also true that graduates of Nyasaland University cannot do things with enthusiasm, and must have means of self-protection.

"Yecheng government hopes that I can work in Yecheng, but they are unwilling to accept these children because there are Malays among them—" Xu Ge is also very helpless, the reality is not a fairy tale after all.

"It is also because of the Yecheng government's greeting that I can persist until now. Although they are pitiful now, they are not so patient when dealing with other people. The village on the other side of the river was forced by them because they did not want to move. All the fires burned up, and some people were even burned to death—" Xu Ge hated Locke Corporation deeply, developing tourism resources is a good thing, but burning people to death is too much.

However, burning people to death was not uncommon in Southeast Asia in 1925.

Now in Southeast Asia, no one dares to target the Chinese in an organized way. Tribal wars among the indigenous people are still frequent, and some villages are destroyed overnight, and East India is no exception.

"Get out, go back and tell your boss, I will talk to him later." Wu Xing did not comment on Locke's behavior, and it is still necessary to punish him appropriately.

As if they had received an amnesty, the guys immediately ran away with their heads in their hands.

Looking back, Wu Xing talked to Xu Ge first.

"Although these guys are gone, they may come back. It's too unsafe here. I still suggest you go back to southern Africa, or go to Yecheng—" Wu Xing was worried about Xu Ge's safety. A woman stayed here with a group of children There is a high probability of accidents in the wilderness, and it is Xu Ge's fate to live to this day.

The threat doesn't just come from the Locke Company. Relatively speaking, the Locke Company is pretty good, and there are some scruples. If it were an ignorant villager or a homeless man, Xu Ge's situation would be even more dangerous.

What's more, there are wild animals, natural disasters or something, maybe a passing merchant ship will bring disaster to Xu Ge and the others.

Taking a step back, Xu Ge, a graduate of Nyasaland University, staying in this kind of wilderness is a waste of life in Wu Xing's view. She should have a better future.

"The children don't want to—" Xu Ge was also very embarrassed. She also thought about going back to southern Africa or going to Yecheng, but Xu Ge had no choice but to stay out of respect for the children.

"You can't listen to children in everything. If you are really responsible for them, before they can't be responsible for themselves, you have to make decisions for them." Wu Xing doesn't have as many twists and turns as Xu Ge. It's the difference between men and women.

"I'm afraid this girl is stupid in school—" Fox seldom complained, and even pretended to be clever in English, thinking that Xu Ge couldn't understand.

Wu Xing couldn't laugh or cry, would the graduates of Nyasaland University not understand English?

If not to say that college students still have self-cultivation, Xu Ge did not get angry even if he was complained face to face, but explained seriously: "One of the important reasons why I stay here is that some children from nearby villages also return Come to study with me, but now they have all been moved by the Locke Company—"

Xu Ge's expression was sad. Only after leaving Southern Africa did he know what the real world is like. Xu Ge has no ability to change this world, but he is willing to do his best, even if it can only bring about some small changes.

There are still achievements, and David is a good example. Without Xu Ge, David's life would definitely not be what it is now.

"Since this is the case, why do you still stay here—" Wu Xing didn't think the girl was stupid in studying. Perhaps compared with other Nyasaland University graduates, Xu Ge's choice was not wise, but this just shows that this The girl has a heart of gold, or a heart of innocence, and what she does is definitely more meaningful than that of many executives of large companies.

Also more valuable.

"elder sister--"

"Sister, we don't want you to go—"

Children are the most sensitive, several girls are already in tears, and boys are glaring at Wu Xing and Fox.

Perhaps in their view, Wu Xing and Fox are no different from people from Locke Company, they are all here to destroy their lives.

"Don't worry, I won't leave you no matter what—" Xu Ge knelt down to wipe away tears for a little girl, comforting her gently.

"Sister, why don't you go to Guangdao?" David's words awakened the dreamer.

"Yes, Tekong Island, Ms. Xu, if you don't want to go back to southern Africa or go to Coconut City, you can also go to Tekong Island. Tekong Island is part of the Changi Naval Base. There will be many families of the Indian Ocean Fleet in the future To settle down, they also need to receive education." Wu Xingmao suddenly realized that this was the best choice.

Southern Africa has always attached great importance to education. After the Changi Naval Base is completed, there will be a fleet stationed there. At that time, there will definitely be schools on the island. Xu Ge is a graduate of Nyasaland University and is responsible for the children. It is perfect for her to be in charge of the school's construction.

"Is it possible?" Xu Ge was pleasantly surprised, this is indeed the best choice.

"Yes, this matter does not need to be decided by the fleet commander. I, the director of the umbrella company, can do it—" Wu Xing laughed, the children of officers and soldiers of the Indian Ocean Fleet need to receive education, and the senior mercenaries of the umbrella company also have this experience demand.

Although the umbrella company is good, Wu Xing is also unwilling to see his children grow up and follow their father's business. Many of the mercenaries who settled in Southeast Asia have family members who still stay in southern Africa in order to allow their children to receive better education. .

If Tekong Island can have a school, even if the teaching level is not as good as that in southern Africa, many mercenaries will take their children back. Who is willing to endure the pain of lovesickness of separation.

What made Xu Ge happy was that the children did not object to going to Teguang Island. They didn't want to leave here, mainly because they didn't want to be separated from Xu Ge. As long as they were with Xu Ge, it didn't matter where they went.

Now that you are willing, the next thing is very simple.

Xu Ge and the children's property is not much, the thatched cottage is worthless, mainly two cows and a few sheep.

It was also at this time that Wu Xing knew that Xu Ge bought the cows and sheep with his own money in order to provide more nutrition for the children.

There is no need for Xu Ge to worry about nutrition in the future. Although the umbrella company is notorious, it has never been stingy with its own people. After Wu Xing reported Xu Ge's matter, the company headquarters responded quickly and immediately decided to build a school in Teguang Island. Schools, the standard cannot be lower than that of Southern African public schools.

Note that it is a school, not just a primary school. If it is expressed in this way in southern Africa, then the primary school is usually built together with the secondary school, and the scale will definitely not be small.

The budget of Umbrella Corporation is also very large, a total of [-] rand, which is almost the same as the total annual education budget of the colonial government of the United States and the Philippines.

Americans actually attach great importance to education, but let’s forget about the Philippines. There is not a decent school in the entire Philippines.

The good thing is not only that, the Umbrella Company is so fanfare, and the Indian Ocean Fleet is of course no exception. The response of Nyasaland University and the Southern African Federal Government is a bit slow, and what happened next is a bit magical.
