Chapter 1866 Insignificant
Rock's most important task now is to ensure the development momentum of southern Africa on the existing basis.

As long as there are no major problems in southern Africa itself, regardless of whether there will be World War II, in another 20 years, southern Africa will be one of the most powerful countries in the world.

Of course, if you are more confident, "one" can also be removed.

It is really that the foundation of Southern Africa is too strong. The only thing restricting Southern Africa is the population. Once this problem is solved, no one can stop Southern Africa.

This point was not obvious before the outbreak of the "Great Depression". After the outbreak of the "Great Depression", the strong economic development momentum in southern Africa has fully proved the prospects of southern Africa.

This is largely due to the public education system that started long ago in Southern Africa.

For a country, the population base is very important, and so is the level of education.

The importance of education level can be seen in India. At least 3 million of the 2 million Indians are Sudras and untouchable Dalits. Brahmins with the highest status only account for between [-]% and [-]% of the total population of the country. , this part is the Indians recognized by the United Kingdom.

According to this standard, there are probably between 300 million and 600 million people who can be called "people" in India.

There is no caste system in southern Africa, and those who can be accepted in southern Africa are all southern Africans, and they are all eligible to receive compulsory education.

Compulsory education in southern Africa was also very difficult to start. For a poor and white country, it takes a lot of courage to concentrate limited resources on the education of its citizens. Boldly spend money to create a public education system.

The benefits are of course obvious.

Nothing can be achieved overnight. It takes ten years to grow trees and a hundred years to cultivate people. Compulsory education needs a process to reflect its value.

The level of compulsory education in southern Africa in the early days was not high. The high level was private schools represented by Bigwig and Locke Schools. The situation really changed after the establishment of Nyasaland University. The public education system in southern Africa was gradually improved only after the graduates of the "mass manufacturing" of Lanzhou University.

Mainly the level of education.

When the federal government was established, several departments shared one secretary, and some ministers had not even read a book. It would be too demanding to expect them to change the world.

Even a genius like Nikola Tesla needs to receive a complete modern education to realize his potential. For the vast majority of people, receiving education is the most convenient and effective way to change their lives across classes.

After nearly 30 years of persistence, the achievements of education are obvious, most notably in government agencies and scientific research departments. In the previous federal governments at all levels in southern Africa, most of the senior employees came from elites who had received European education.

This is also helpless, there are no high-level institutions of higher learning in southern Africa, and ordinary people in southern Africa have no choice but to study.

In recent years, among the governments at all levels of the Southern African Federation, more and more talents have been cultivated locally in Southern Africa, and the same is true in scientific research institutions. When Rudolf Diesel came to Southern Africa, he was qualified to help Rudolf Diesel By the time Nikola Tesla came to Southern Africa, Southern Africa could already come up with a thick pile of personnel information for Nikola Tesla to choose from.

Specifically in the field of reality, as far as cars are concerned, the first cars manufactured in southern Africa actually had frequent problems. When the driver was learning driving skills, maintenance was an important part. Even the Lord's car might break down at any time. It may also break down halfway.

Fortunately, the overall performance of the car was not good at that time. Lord Automobile finally made a bloody way with the luxury of krypton gold, and it is still the most high-end car brand sought after by the rich.

At this time, when drivers learn driving skills, they no longer need to learn maintenance. Not to mention high-end Lord cars, even popular civilian cars, the failure rate has been reduced to an acceptable level.

The same is true in other aspects. Compulsory education has an obvious effect on improving the overall quality of the people. For the first generation of southern Africans, survival is the main task goal. By the second generation, they have begun to improve their living standards. Now the third generation of southern Africans People are being educated in schools, and in another ten years, they will explode en masse.

With nearly 2000 million people being educated in Southern African schools, the advantage will grow over time.

"So the task of our generation has actually been completed. We have laid a good foundation for you. In the future, I hope you can build a stronger, richer and more desirable Southern Africa on this foundation. "Rock is still very modest, it's more than good, out of 95 points, at least [-].

The reason why five points are deducted is that Rock is proud. Whether it is good or not depends on the background of his peers. Compared horizontally with Hoover, Ramsay McDonald, and Gaston Dumegue in the same period, 95 points are still less.

"No matter how hard our generation works, we can't surpass the great achievements of your generation." Alvin's admiration for Rock is undisguised, and this is not just the kind of admiration a child has for his father.

This is actually an underestimation. Rock and his generation have indeed done a good job, but limited by the foundation of southern Africa, in fact, southern Africa still has potential to be tapped, for example, to challenge the status of the British Empire, for example, like 100 years ago Like France, the United Kingdom is trying to build the framework structure of the future world, such as stars and seas and so on.

In short, there are many things that can be done.

After all, the sea of ​​stars is far away, you can occasionally look up at the starry sky, but you still have to walk step by step on the road under your feet.

Roque has finally experienced the pain of the "mascot" now. After leaving the Commonwealth, Roque's work has not changed much. There are two or three meetings every day. The whole process is almost silent. Just make a summary at the end. The contents of the speeches are all written in advance, and there are not many opportunities for free play.

After all, the position is high and powerful, and a casual sentence may involve the interests of tens of thousands or 10,000+, or even millions of people, so you must be cautious when speaking.

To put it bluntly, when the ministers were making reports, even if Roque coughed casually even if his throat was a little itchy, the ministers had to think about whether Roque was not satisfied with his report. In this case, it is better not to casually cough. Good cough.

Speaking of which, if Roque coughs, the nervousness must not be limited to the minister who made the report. Roque also has a medical team now. If the prime minister has a physical problem, the medical team must be responsible. trouble.

Except for two or three meetings a day, Roque can basically arrange the rest of the time freely, but there is not much that Roque can do now. For the staff of the Palace of Justice, it is best for Roque not to even leave the Palace of Justice. , otherwise it will be laborious.

The security of the Palace of Justice is still very reliable. The Secret Service Bureau responsible for the security of the Palace of Justice officially has more than 800 people, each of whom is a carefully selected special service officer. An apartment butcher like Li Yan who can kill 2 people in 12 minutes, in the Secret Service In the entire secret service, the snipers who killed more than 100 enemies during the World War can be organized into a squad.

Every time Rock travels now, the convoy consists of at least 12 cars, with nearly a hundred people in his entourage. There are fewer and fewer people who are qualified to get along with Rock as friends. Henry Stoudemire is too busy and often travels around the world , in the whole of Pretoria, apart from Ade, Philip, and Kitchener, there are only the group of old brothers who followed Rock in the Southern and Northern Wars.

Most of these old brothers are actually still working. They are everywhere. Of course, there must be some who have retired for various reasons. There are also many who have settled in Pretoria. Lu Si’s farm is in the suburbs of Pretoria. .

Under Rock, Lu Si's importance seems to be irrelevant to Anton and Gao De brothers, but from the perspective of loyalty, Lu Si is unmatched.

During the Second Boer War, Lu Si lost an eye and a leg in battle. Later, Lu Si participated in the formation of the umbrella and Brad, and later worked in the Special Investigation Section of the Ministry of National Defense.

Lu Si was older than Rock. He had retired the year before last and returned to the farm to live in seclusion.

Following Rock in the South and North for decades, Lu Si is also strong. In the early years, he bought a farm with an area of ​​about 1500 acres in the suburbs of Pretoria. After decades of operation, the area now exceeds 3000 acres.

3000 acres, converted to 18210 acres, this area is not too much. During the Boer rule, there were many farms with tens of thousands of acres in the Transvaal, and there are many now. Rock himself is the largest landowner in the Transvaal.

Although the area is not exaggerated, it can’t stand the good location. Lu Si’s farm is between Pretoria and Hot Springs Valley. Hot Springs Valley has now become a tourist attraction in Pretoria, connecting Pretoria and Hot Springs Gu's road runs through the middle of Lu Si's farm, relying on this road, as long as Lu Si and his descendants don't risk their lives, they will probably be able to live comfortably for a long time.

Prosperity and wealth are hard to last for a long time, and having no worries about food and clothing is a level that many people cannot reach in their entire lives. In this sense, it is actually what is often called financial freedom.

Lu Si's retirement life is very fulfilling. It is said that a farm of more than 1 mu is enough for Lu Si to toss about. You may not believe it, but Lu Si's biggest hobby now is growing vegetables, all kinds of vegetables, all kinds of rocks The dishes that Lu Si likes to eat can be directly sent to the Palace of Justice. Every morning, Lu Si will go to the vegetable shed to pick the freshest vegetables, and let his grandson drive them to the Palace of Justice.

It doesn't matter if you can see Rock or not.

It doesn't even matter if Rock eats or not.

The key is this kind of intention, even if the fighting is already too much, you can still express your feelings in this way.

Although in the eyes of many people, this order is insignificant.
