Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 1847 The choice of life is in your own hands

It is actually very easy to find jobs for these Africans. There are so many things that can be done, the difference is only whether you want to do it or not.

For Randall, there is only one criterion for doing things, that is, whether it can bring benefits, and if it is beneficial, do it. If there is no benefit, he would rather idle, eat, drink and have fun. This is also the working attitude of most people.

As far as Malan State is concerned, there are more things to do. When Saroyan crossed the river on a yacht, he found that there were crocodiles in the river, and there were still people fetching water on the bank not far away. How many people have lost their lives, the Nile crocodile is still very ferocious, and its distribution range is wide, and its reproduction speed is very fast, posing a great threat to humans.

Most Nile crocodiles breed only once a year, and the breeding season has a lot to do with the climate. Every year they breed in the dry season, but if there are two dry seasons in a year, they will breed twice.

Nile crocodiles mainly live in nests on the banks of the river, with 25 to 80 eggs at a time, and the incubation period is about three months. The key is that the lifespan of Nile crocodiles is as long as 70 to 100 years. If left to their own devices, the reproduction speed is terrifying .

Of course, considering the strong economic value of the Nile crocodile, the rate of reduction is also very fast. 30 years ago, southern Africa was full of Nile crocodiles. Now the Nile crocodile is basically extinct in the wild. Instead, it depends on artificial breeding to ensure raw materials. Supply, no matter what it is, as long as it has something to do with money, no matter how dangerous it is, someone will do it.

However, this law does not seem to hold true in West Africa.

Africans in West Africa would rather be poor than work. If you say they don’t like luxury houses and cars, it’s a lie. Just look at Yaya’s attitude towards luxury houses and cars. Everyone yearns for these things.

However, luxury houses and luxury cars are not for everyone after all. When the difficulty of obtaining them increases to a certain extent, most people will lose motivation. This is how Sanhe masters came here.

Referring to the standards of Sanhe Dashen, the vast majority of Africans in West Africa are Sanhe Dashen.

Anyway, if you don't work, you can't starve to death, so why do you have to work.

Saroyan can give the answer to this question. The way in southern Africa is that if you don’t work, you are forced to work. Unless you go to the deep mountains and old forests to become a savage, the federal government of southern Africa will not care.

However, as the scope of development becomes wider and wider, the real paradise does not exist. When the difficulty of obtaining food continues to increase, and it reaches the point where there is no food without work, work becomes the only choice.

"The key is education and letting them see the hope of improving their lives—" After a few days of investigation, Saroyan had a general understanding of the situation in Malan State. Before leaving Malan and returning to Pretoria, he and Randall had an in-depth exchange: "—Marland's polarization is too serious, just like this city, it is either a clean and tidy rich area, or a dirty and chaotic slum, which is not normal, no matter what Whether it is the poor or the rich, there should be a minority, and the backbone of the society should be the middle class with a certain amount of wealth. This kind of structure is healthy."

"That's what I said, but it's difficult to do it in Maran State." Randall sighed, not just any region is eligible to choose Nyasaland's development route.

In fact, Nyasaland also lacks mineral resources, but with Rock's guidance, Nyasaland has been on the right path from the very beginning, promoting economic progress through industrial development, and concentrating on the development of automobiles and The aviation-based high-tech industry has persisted for decades to achieve its current economic scale.

Malan State also lacks resources. Now the main economic pillars are cement and timber. These two industries do not require much advanced technology, so there is no foundation for cultivating the middle class. I want to replicate the economy of Nyasaland in Malan State Miracles are simply not possible.

Well, not just Africa, there is only one Nyasaland in the whole world.

"Why can't it be done? I think Malan can do what Southern Africa can do." Saroyan is really not fooling Randall. Malan State can't replicate the economic miracle of Nyasaland, but it can replicate Bayan. Nah.

Among the most economically developed states in southern Africa, Nyasaland relies on high technology, Rhodesia relies on the foundation laid by a South African company, and Transvaal relies on the Rand gold mine, not to mention Cape Town. Before the opening of the Suez Canal, Cape Town was the only way for merchant ships to and from Eurasia.

Except for these places, the development models of other states in southern Africa are roughly the same. For example, Bechuanaland, the influx of a large number of new immigrants has brought a large number of qualified farmers to Bechuanaland.

With the guidance of agricultural experts, as long as the farmer does not risk his life, it is really easy to run a farm well. In the past, it was necessary to hire workers when the farming was busy. With the popularization of agricultural machinery, running a farm has become more and more simple. The farmer has the money in his hand to be able to consume more commodities, and the entire social economy is revitalized little by little.

With the flow of goods, governments at all levels of the federal government have the ability to carry out various infrastructure constructions.

Infrastructure construction, in turn, will promote sustained and healthy economic development, and the combination will lead to the overall economic take-off in southern Africa. Is it really difficult to do this?

It's not hard.

Of course all of this is based on the initial investment.

This reflects the role of banks. After all, a farm needs funds to start. When new immigrants come to southern Africa, most of them have nothing. It is actually very difficult to develop the various materials needed.

"It's useless. We tried to let those Africans run their own farms. It's impossible. They lack experience in this area." Randall shook his head again and again. The southern African method will not work in West Africa.

"Is it really impossible?" Saroyan smiled. The concept of "laziness" of Africans was actually imposed on Africans by European colonists. The key is that Africans are not given the opportunity to try.

As far as Saroyan knew about Malan during this period, it was not at all whether Africans were willing to work, but that the West African government did not give Africans the opportunity to try at all. Africans are not allowed to be hired.

Not even Saroyan knew why.

What Saroyan knows is that if the Malan State government does not impose restrictions, at least Africans will not make the slums so crowded, and the slums are dirty and messy. As long as the Malan State government wants to clean up the slums, the slums will really Can clean up.

Believe it or not, the method adopted in southern Africa is the three guarantees in front of the door, which means that whoever is responsible for the environmental sanitation at the door, the federal governments at all levels only need to set up a patrol team to conduct uninterrupted inspections to ensure that the streets are clean most of the time. Neat and organized.

In Malan State, it is easier to implement the Three Guarantees in front of the door. Rich people even have servants to trim their own gardens, and sweep the ground at the door. .

As for the slums on the other side of the river, don't forget that Africans in this era have no human rights. With this major premise, it is really simple to implement something.

"To get people in the slums to take action, a suitable demonstration effect is needed. Even if Africans are lazy, it is impossible for everyone to be lazy. There are always people who are willing to improve their lives through their own labor. What we have to do now is to give These people have the opportunity, and then see if they can do something." Saroyan is not in a hurry, it will take time to change people's ideas, and the effect may not be seen in a short period of time, but you can't just do nothing just because of this willingness Do.

If you do nothing, nothing will change.

Never change.

"Even if we distribute the land to those Africans, they won't manage it." Randall said bluntly that he didn't treat Africans as human beings.

"How do you know if you don't try it? You are already the governor, so you should look at the problem from a higher perspective, and don't you think that this obvious gap between the rich and the poor will cause serious social conflicts to break out sooner or later?" Salo Young knew what Randall was worried about. In fact, Saroyan and Randall had the same purpose, but in different ways.

"Give the land to those Africans, what if they sell the land and run away?" It is said that Randall is not ignorant, and those without property have no perseverance.

"The nature of this part of the land is different. It cannot be resold at will. It can only be recovered by the bank. If you want to own a beautiful big house, you must first buy a beautiful vase." Saroyan's words made Randall very puzzled.

Looking at Randall with a confused face, Saroyan continued to explain: "With a beautiful vase, you need a dining table that can match the vase, and then you need a clean and tidy dining room, and finally you need Will have a nice big house."

Randall suddenly realized that this logic is a bit magical, and if it is not done well, it will become a consumption trap.

Of course, it mainly depends on how the individual chooses. Just like the same students, some people study hard at the beginning and never let go of any opportunity to improve themselves. In the end, they usually have good grades, whether it is in studies or in life.

Some people have been mischievous from the very beginning, making more and more mistakes, and the consequences have become more and more serious. In the end, [-]% of the prisons are the final destination.

On this issue, the difference in choice is that after owning a beautiful vase, the next goal is a more beautiful vase, or the dining table that is worthy of a beautiful vase.

"The key is to guide them to correctly understand that only through hard work can they change their lives. In this way, there will always be people who are willing to work hard for it." Saroyan smiled. The largest colonial governments in southern Africa and Europe The only difference is that the right to choose is really given to the individual, rather than imposed on everyone.
