Chapter 1692
The UK established a public education system a long time ago, but the implementation of the British public education system is not thorough. Most school-age children are excluded from the public education system. There are still a large number of child laborers in sweatshops. Almost all of them are children, and the rich send their children to private secondary schools for education, and the public education system is useless.

Southern Africa also has private secondary schools.

The difference is that the public education system in southern Africa is not in name only. The top-level Bigwig Public School and Locke Middle School are well-known, and Los Angeles No. [-] Middle School and the High School Affiliated to Nyasaland University are not bad. The quality of teaching and student performance It is completely comparable to Big Via Public School and Locke Secondary School.

If private schools in southern Africa can score 100 points, then the public education system in southern Africa can score at least 85 points, which is a qualitative difference from the British public education system.

In southern Africa in 1926, more than 98% of school-age children had the opportunity to receive nine-year compulsory education. After graduating from middle school, students could choose to enter vocational schools to learn professional skills, or enter institutions of higher learning to receive higher-level education. Strictly speaking, the difference between students and graduates is not that big. After graduating from a vocational school, they can still receive continuing education. As long as they are willing to learn, they can also learn something.

Different education systems, presented in front of George V, are thriving, which makes George V feel heavy.

When the next generation in the UK indulges in banquets, dances, hunting, and outings all day long, the next generation in southern Africa is studying in the library. They should have a better tomorrow, but they chose different paths when they should study. The future will bring them a very different life.

George V is the king. If he wants to visit the National Library, it must be cleared if it is placed in the British mainland.

But not in Southern Africa.

The National Library of Pretoria has comprehensive security measures. The mercenaries of the Umbrella Company are responsible for the security work. The Royal Guard tried to take over the security work of the National Library in the morning, but was directly rejected by the security personnel of the Umbrella Company.

The reason is that the National Library has a large number of precious books, and no one can enter the National Library with weapons except the security personnel of the umbrella company.

"Although guns are not banned in southern Africa, there are very strict requirements for guns. No one is allowed to carry guns in public. Violations of the regulations will not only disqualify them from holding guns, but also punish them. The federal government is now cautious about guns. In the future, our federal government may disqualify private individuals from holding pistols, and instead hold shotguns that are powerful at close range but inconvenient to carry, Congress is discussing this.” Stoudemire explained in detail, compared to shotguns , The pistol is too easy to hide, but it also poses a great security risk.

Southern Africa's attitude towards guns has been changing with the development of the times.

From the very beginning without restrictions, to the ban on rifles but not pistols later, to the current ban on pistols but not shotguns, it has been constantly adjusted with the development of the times.

"Citizens have the right to hold guns, which is a power given to citizens by God." George V was displeased, but there was nothing he could do about it. Southern Africa is now a self-governing dominion and is no longer a British colony.

Stoudemire doesn't talk. There are advantages and disadvantages to citizens owning guns. In general, the disadvantages outweigh the advantages. One day southern Africa will completely ban guns. If you want to play with guns, you can go to the Rifle Association. The control of private guns will become more and more strict.

Of course, there is still a lot of resistance to completely banning guns, and the biggest resistance comes from the Rifle Association.

This point is actually not unsolvable. The Rifle Association itself does not sell guns. The guns are sold by Nyasaland Military Industry, and Nyasaland Military Industry is Rock's enterprise. As long as Rock makes up his mind, everything is possible.

Just in front of the National Library, Prince Albert Frederick Arthur George, who also served in the Royal Guard, was at a loss.

Princes serve in the Royal Guard, which is a British royal tradition.

Because of the scandal with Mrs. Simpson, Prince Edward was sent back to London for confinement. Prince Albert took over Prince Edward's position as the commander of the Royal Guard. Unfortunately, he did not expect to hit a nail in the National Library.

"The security personnel of the National Library do not allow us to take over the defense of the National Library. They insist that the security of the National Library is foolproof. This is not in line with the procedure—" Prince Albert sued. The personnel is a little clueless.

At the time when Prince Albert filed the complaint, Snow, the security director of the National Library, and Hicks, the deputy director of the Secret Service of the Palace of Justice, were present. During George V’s stay in southern Africa, the security work was carried out by the Royal Guard and the Secret Service of the Palace of Justice. shared responsibility.

"Your Majesty, the Umbrella Company was a first-class security company at that time. The Secret Service has never had any accidents in the hundreds of missions it has undertaken. We are fully capable of ensuring the safety of Your Majesty in the National Library." Hicks insisted, don't look at the royal family. Under the banner of "royalty", the guards don't have to compare with the Secret Service in terms of professionalism, and there is a gap between them and the umbrella.

The mercenaries of the Umbrella Company are all senior mercenaries who have actually participated in battles, not to mention experienced in many battles, and they are not comparable to the royal guards like embroidered pillows.

Compared with the mercenaries of the Umbrella Company, Secret Service agents are truly battle-hardened. They are all elite fighters drawn from the National Defense Forces. They have excellent requirements in all aspects. Driving, blasting, first aid, and language are also strictly required. Many Secret Service agents even have the ability to fly fighter jets, which is beyond the reach of the Royal Guard.

How to say the British Royal Guard, this is a force basically composed of noble children, if you say that everyone is really strong, if you say that the ability is really not very good, after all, the treatment of the Royal Guard is not very good. A person with ability will not join the Royal Guard, go to the umbrella to receive a generous salary, and after retirement, will there be a generous pension?
"It's okay Albert, I believe in the loyalty of the southern Africans to the British Empire!" George V could still tell the difference, and it was meaningless to insist at this time. With Stoudemire by his side, George V was not worried about someone harboring ill intentions .

Walking into the library, the 20-meter-high hall makes people feel extremely small. There are gorgeous crystal chandeliers inlaid on the central and surrounding walls of the hall. The central chandelier is particularly large, with a diameter of more than two meters and a height of more than two meters. , Countless crystal pendants form complex and gorgeous shapes, and the crystal clear crystals exude a seductive and magnificent light under the bright lights. George V must not know that these crystals that look like crystals are actually just appearances. It's all glass.

"Lock hates all formalism and outright pragmatism. The chandeliers hung here were indeed crystal chandeliers, all of which were natural crystals purchased from Brazil. Later, Locke decided to replace them with glass and auctioned off the crystal chandeliers—" Stoudemire covered his mouth Laughing, by the standards of the British aristocrats, Rock is indeed not qualified.

What is the nobility, not the best, but the most expensive. In southern Africa, it is already frugal to use crystals without diamonds. If it is Stoudemire's style, the floor must be inlaid with gold leaf.

"Who bought the crystal chandelier?" George V obviously went astray.

Xiao Si was stunned, and pointed to himself silently.

George V suddenly realized "Oh".

This "oh" is not very harmful, but extremely insulting.

Walking along the passage, there are countless portraits of sages hanging on the walls on both sides, such as Socrates, Aristotle, Euclid, and many Orientals that George V did not know.

Stoudemire introduced them one by one.

"This is Mo Di from the Far East, the founder of the Mohist school, he is a descendant of the royal family, he advocates both love and non-gong—"

"This is from the ancestor 1400 years ago. His greatest achievement is to calculate the ratio of pi, which is accurate to seven decimal places—"

"This is Sun from 1300 years ago. He is a great medical expert, specializing in internal medicine, pediatrics, gynecology, surgery, and facial features—"

"Wait, is there anything in the medical field that he doesn't know?" George V marveled.

Stoudemire thought about it seriously, and then said in an affirmative tone: "He will definitely not confess to the treatment—"

Confession therapy originated in the Middle Ages, when the Black Death was raging in Europe, so some desperate residents thought that the Black Death was sent by God to punish themselves, so they were shirtless, whipped themselves while walking, and expressed themselves to God. confession.

"Then he still needs to study harder—" George V also had a serious face, and then quickened his pace.

If you don't speed up, you can't do it. If you listen too much, it's easy to doubt your ancestors.

Walking to the library, there is a long row of bookshelves in front of you, and the bookshelves are densely packed with various books.

George V estimated the number of books and subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

Not much.

At least not 1100 million copies.

"All the books here are catalogues. If you need to borrow, first find the relevant books here, then go to the front desk to register, and then go to the corresponding library to find. Each person can borrow up to five books at a time. Damage is strictly prohibited, and timeout is strictly prohibited. If you need it, you can go to the nearby bookstore to buy it directly—” George V didn’t hear what Xiao Si said next, and all the echoes in his brain were catalogs, catalogs, catalogs——

"Each floor has a corresponding reading room. If you can't find the book you want, you can leave a message in the message book, or go directly to the front desk to respond. The staff will call you when you find the relevant books. The speed of about [-] copies per month is increasing, most of which come from private donations, and donations in southern Africa can be tax deductible—” Stoudemire doesn’t care what George V thinks, for the British Empire, southern Africa is impossible copy.

ps: wow ha ha ha ha, I didn't expect that, there is another chapter——

Ps again: I just saw it, thanks to Brother Rulong 1911 for the rewards, this chapter is an addition for you——
