Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 295 Sugar-coated Cannonballs

Therefore, before Nyasaland has enough self-protection ability, or before the implementation of self-government in southern Africa, Nyasaland must keep a low profile. Aquatic products will not be sold to the outside world.

Even if the mines in the Transvaal needed explosives from Nyasaland, Rock would not sell them to the Transvaal.

The same is true for human resources. Rock has immigrated to Johannesburg for more than a year, and the number of Chinese in Johannesburg has just exceeded [-].

In less than half a year since Nyasaland came to Roque, the number of Chinese in Nyasaland has exceeded 15. This information is the top secret of Nyasaland. Stoudemire does not know it, Adelaide does not know it, and neither does London. Know.

Also rapidly increasing are various experts, professors, engineers, technicians, and even skilled workers. Rock collects talents through different channels. High-end talents include Douglas, and low-end talents include Christian. Rock even has locations in London and Paris. Headhunting companies have been set up in Beijing and Berlin to lure all kinds of talents with high salaries and generous benefits.

The flow of talents in this era is very normal. The governments of various countries do not attach as much importance to talents as they will in the future, and there are always people who are unrecognized. In a customary sense, Nyasaland is also a British territory, so working for a baron, It's not an unacceptable thing.

Especially since the baron is still very generous, and there is a good reason for that.

The current number of high-level talents in Nyasaland is enough to support a comprehensive university. The reason why the university has not started construction is that apart from the lack of suitable students, the impact is the biggest problem. Rock still doesn't want to be noticed. Making a fortune is king.

In November, the plague situation became more and more serious. The death toll in Johannesburg exceeded [-], and the number of patients and suspected patients in the quarantine area exceeded [-]. After half a month of research, Abu and Bellamy finally came up with an effective According to the isolation plan, the doctors and nurses of Bigwig Hospital began to enter the isolation area to provide medical services for the patients in the isolation area.

Relatively speaking, the situation in Johannesburg is still good. Nearly a thousand people have died from the plague in Pretoria, most of whom are Zulus hired by Christian.

Orange suffered heavy losses from the plague. At least 500 people died a day in October. By early November, the number of deaths in Orange had exceeded [-].

At the beginning of the plague, Orange also hoped that Johannesburg could provide medical support for Bloemfontein. After being firmly rejected by Johannesburg, Bloemfontein could only try to save himself, but because of poor organizational and mobilization skills, the effect of self-help was not good. Little, the plague has not been effectively contained, but intensified.

Outside the Bloemfontein municipality, the stretcher team led by Gandhi played an "important role".

The reason why the "important role" is put in quotation marks is because the role of the stretcher team is difficult to evaluate.

After the outbreak of the plague, Gandhi keenly felt that this was an important opportunity to improve his reputation, so Gandhi led a stretcher team and immediately invested in the prevention and control of the plague.

The plague has been raging in Europe for nearly a thousand years, and European countries have accumulated rich experience in the process of fighting the plague. Therefore, Bloemfontein also focused on isolation and supplemented treatment in dealing with the plague.

The meaning of this sentence is that if you get the plague, you can basically wait to die. Whether you can survive it depends on whether God will show you face or not.

In terms of isolation, Bloemfontein did not take more protective measures, so the stretcher team led by Gandhi, without any protection, shuttled through the streets and alleys of Bloemfontein every day to transport patients infected with the plague , and suspected patients were sent to the isolation area.

Yersinia pestis can be transmitted through indirect means such as breathing, talking, coughing, and direct means such as skin contact. Therefore, in early November, the Bloemfontein city government was surprised to find that the stretcher team led by Gandhi had already reached three points. One of the members was infected with plague.

This is a big problem. Originally, the Bloemfontein city government imposed martial law on Bloemfontein in order to fight against the plague, but it was unexpected that these Indians who shuttled through the streets and alleys every day became the source of plague infection, so The members of the stretcher team infected with the plague were also locked up in the isolation area, and the remaining members of the stretcher team were also restricted in their movements.

Although the role of the stretcher team is mixed, Gandhi's behavior has won Gandhi a great reputation among the Boers at the bottom.

When the plague broke out, Boer officials, including Louis Botha and Jan Smudge, hid in the tall city government building, instead of directly facing the threat of the plague, they used meetings every day to fight against the plague.

Police officers from the Bloemfontein Police Station are still patrolling, but they will not participate in disaster relief. Even if someone falls dead in front of them, they will not dispose of the body, but will notify the body collection team formed by Zulus to clean up the mess.

During the ravages of the plague, the stretcher team led by Gandhi was the only group that provided services to the Boers at the bottom. It is believed that only Gandhi's stretcher team is wholeheartedly for the sake of the Boers.

This dramatic result, I am afraid even Gandhi did not expect.

In the days when the plague was raging, people in Johannesburg were also running around.

After several rounds of bargaining, Rock and the former president finally reached an agreement that Rock would send mercenaries to assist the former president's Casimir Perrier Company in mining Madagascar's mineral resources.

Rock still backed down a bit, and did not insist on the 50.00% share, and finally only got 30.00%, but in this way, the mercenaries sent by Rock are no longer free, but need to be paid by Casimir Perrier .

As a result of the final negotiations, Roque will send a mercenary team of 60 people to Madagascar. These 60 people are combatants and even instructors. After arriving in Madagascar, Casimir Perrier will organize a security team composed of Malagasy Team, these mercenaries are responsible for managing and training those security guards.

The person in charge of leading the team to Madagascar is called the chief. This is not a nickname. The chief is really the son of a chief in Zululand, but his name structure is also very complicated, so when the chief registers, he uses the name of the chief.

The chief had no inheritance rights in his tribe, so he chose to become a policeman in Johannesburg.

"When you arrive in Madagascar, you have to be careful. All the officers in the security team of the mine must be our people. The French are not allowed to intervene in any affairs of the security team. During your trip to Madagascar, your salary will still be paid by the Johannesburg Police Department. The original salary plus the overseas allowance, each person’s monthly salary is about ten pounds, I will send a radio operator to go to Madagascar with you, no matter what it is, you must first report to the bureau, and don’t make decisions privately.” Rock strongly warned that if it wasn't for the conspicuous skin color of the Chinese, Rock wouldn't let the chief go to Madagascar.

"Yes! Yes! Yes!" Every time Rock said, the chief would yell "Yes", which made Rock a little unaccustomed.

What kind of people bring out what kind of soldiers, Rock himself does not follow the rules, and his thinking is even more unconstrained. Even the atmosphere in the Johannesburg Police Station is very active. During non-working hours, the police officers and police officers get along very well. On the football field When police officers defend the sheriff, they should also step down, and there is no strict class boundary.

The police officers of the Johannesburg Police Station all know that when Roque orders work, he does not need the police officer to express his determination and correct attitude. In the end, he only needs to do the job well. Stand up for your subordinates without worrying about the repercussions.

So in the Johannesburg Police Department, there are not many people with a correct attitude like the chief.

"After arriving in Madagascar, if you have any difficulties, you should send a telegram to apply for support in time. The foundation of French rule in Madagascar is not solid. If you encounter serious incidents, save yourself first, and don't get dizzy if the French give you some benefits. "Rock is still worried about the integrity of the chief. If the French lure them with "love", it is really hard to say about the integrity of the Africans.

In this regard, Rock still took some precautions. For example, the Chiefs’ salaries are paid by the Johannesburg Police Department, so that at least the Chiefs know who they are working for.

As for the chief's conduct, Rock is actually not too worried. After all, the chief's family is in Johannesburg, and the tribe is in Zululand. If the chief does something wrong to Rock, it is very easy for Rock to punish the chief, unless the chief Can be ruthless enough to be desperate.

However, the former president should not be able to give the chief this kind of temptation. After all, if the chief commits a crime, Rock will not let the former president go.

This seems a bit exaggerated, but it’s actually not a problem. People in the 21st century can’t imagine the chaos in the world at the beginning of the 21th century. In a few years, King Carlos I of the Kingdom of Portugal and the crown prince will be assassinated in the street. Archduke Ferdinand, who triggered the First World War, was also assassinated in the street. Compared with the [-]st century, the world of this era is bloodier, more violent, and more direct.

"Don't worry my lord, just like you said, eat the candy, and then shoot the cannonball back—" Speaking of benefits, the chief's head immediately brightened.

Rock had indeed mentioned the allusion of "sugar-coated cannonballs" before, it's really hard for the chief to remember it.

"Very good, remember this, as long as you do well, I can guarantee that you don't need to go home to fight for that chief of your family, I will give you a bigger tribe and make you a real chief." Roque will also seduce and move with emotion, and his power is much greater than that of the French.
