Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 336 Lights

Planting medicinal materials is definitely a technical job, this is not a problem that Douglas and other professors can solve, and even the experience of Chinese people all the time is useless in Johannesburg, which is located in the southern hemisphere. Therefore, Rock wants to grow medicinal materials in Johannesburg. In addition to the guidance of the family, we need to continue to try to find a suitable development route.

Fortunately, Roque has money and time, and if he tries slowly, he will always see results, so Roque is not in a hurry at all, and he doesn't expect the medical school to produce results in a short period of time, ten or twenty years will do. Ke has a lot of patience.

Relatively speaking, Douglas is eager for quick success in this regard.

Now Douglas also needs money, power and power. Like Abramovich, what Douglas needs is honor and status, which cannot be bought with money, but requires certain opportunities and achievements. Scientific research gains honor and status, and medical school is the shortcut to success for Douglas.

Therefore, Douglas' expectations for medical school can be imagined.

This is actually a good thing for Roque. Roque is not afraid that the people around him have ambitions. He is afraid that although they have ambitions, there is no way to realize them. many.

Douglas is fine. Through the two years of cooperation, Douglas has used his ability to gain Rock's trust. Although Douglas is sometimes bureaucratic and pedantic, compared to most officials in this era, Douglas is already good. , Rock could not have asked for more.

After all, Douglas is still a professor at heart, not a qualified official.

When Rock was worrying about not having qualified personnel on hand, the cruise ship "Malombe" had just sailed into Little Rock Harbor.

The cruise ship "Malombe" has a displacement of 5000 tons. This is an immigration ship specially used for immigrants. The cabins on the ship have no classification. When it is full, it can take 2200 people at one time. German company, affiliated to Nyasaland labor dispatch company.

As you can tell from the name, Nyasaland Labor Dispatch Company is a subsidiary of Nyasaland Agricultural Company. Nyasaland Labor Dispatch Company also has ten other immigrant ships like the "Malombe" cruise ship.

In other words, now that he is immigrating from the Qing Dynasty to Nyasaland, Rock no longer needs to hire foreign ships, and all the immigration work is undertaken by the Nyasaland labor dispatch company. The human resources company established by Liang Dingxin in Qing Dynasty also Under the name of the Niasala labor dispatch company, the employees hired by the human resources company have become veritable "two devils".

This is also a helpless move. The Eight-Power Allied Forces’ war of aggression against China has just ended, and all companies related to "foreigners" have become emperors that no one dares to provoke in the Qing Dynasty. Of course, Rock will not let go of this opportunity. In this way, Although those employees felt a little wronged, it was more conducive to the work of the human resources company.

The cruise ship "Malombe" is fully loaded every time it travels between Qing and Nyasaland, and this time is of course no exception.

As the cruise ship "Malombe" stabilized on the pier of Xiaoshi Port, the originally calm pier suddenly became busy.

Next to the gangway of the "Malombe", there are more than a dozen tables lined up, and behind each table there are full-time staff. After the members of the "Malombe" cruise ship get off the gangway, they have to line up at the Registration takes place in front of these desks.

That's right, all the new immigrants who come to Nyasaland, the first education they receive is to queue up.

Those who don't obey the discipline will be reminded by the staff who maintain order next to the team. If they are reminded to ignore the reminder, then the police will come forward to take them away, and the next thing will be a matter of course. Such a scene, in Little Rock It plays out every few days on the pier.

After registration, if you don't have any special skills, you will be led by the staff to take a carriage to the pioneering teams in different locations. New immigrants with special skills will stay in Little Rock City to wait for further distribution.

Among all the new immigrants who arrived in Nyasaland, Su Xian's family stood out.

All the new immigrants who arrived in Nyasaland had already lived in the Qing camp for at least three months in advance.

During these three months, new immigrants have to complete a series of tasks such as hair shaving, physical examination, nutritional supplements, and familiarization with the "Personal Hygiene Regulations". Only those new immigrants with special status and outstanding performance in a certain industry are eligible. Keep your habits.

This is obviously the case with Su Xian's family. Although they have lived in the camp for three months, none of Su Xian's family has shaved their hair. This is a remarkable sign.

"Name?" When it was Su Xian's turn, the staff in charge of registration went about their business.

"Su Xian—"

"Profession?"

"doctor--"

After the staff heard the word "doctor", they immediately looked up at Su Xian.

In his 30s, with a calm and unhurried attitude, gentle and elegant, and a gentle temperament, everything is in line with the "moderate" temperament of the Chinese.

"Go to the NO.15 carriage—" the staff didn't say much.

"Thank you, I'm sorry—" Su Xian thanked politely, and then led his family to find the carriage under the guidance of the staff.

Along with Su Xian came to Nyasaland, Su Xian's wife, concubine, three sons, and two daughters.

For such a large family, one carriage could not fit in it. Fortunately, the staff had prepared for it. Su Xian's family was divided into two carriages. The carriage driver in front let out a long shout, and the carriage started immediately.

"Master, where are they taking us?" The carriage was a bit dark, and the voice of Su Xian's wife was trembling.

"At this point, you can go anywhere—" Su Xian's voice was fairly steady, but there was confusion in his tone.

"Father, I'm hungry—" The youngest daughter in the same car shrank into Su Xian's arms.

"There will be delicious food later, wait a little longer—" Su Xian comforted, the food along the way was not bad, and the foreign crew members did not make things difficult for Su Xian's family. "It took so much money to get people from the Qing Dynasty to Nyasaland, they should not be thrown into the plantations as workers.

In order to persuade Su Xian's family to immigrate, Nyasaland labor dispatch company really spent a lot of money.

Su Xian's father was an imperial doctor of the Qing Dynasty. When the Eight-Power Allied Forces broke through the city, Su Xian's family fled the capital in a hurry and fled to Xi'an with the large army.

In the era of war and chaos, everyone was in danger, and Su Xian's family was also displaced. When the army fled to Shanxi, Su Xian's elderly father died of overwork, so Su Xian left the army and escorted his father's coffin back to his hometown for burial.

Su Xian's hometown is from Jinghai, Tianjin. Jinghai was also the hardest hit area when the Eight-Power Allied Forces invaded China. After Su Xian returned to his hometown, he found that the ancestral house had been looted by the coalition forces and then set on fire. Su Xian's family became rootless.

After the war, the coalition forces withdrew, and Su Xian's family fell into poverty. The little things they took with them when they left Beijing were exhausted because of their father's funeral expenses, and the family's livelihood was lost.

Fortunately, there is still a clan, and with the help of the clan, Su Xian resumed his old business in his hometown, hanging a pot for consultation.

If there is no accident, relying on the medical skills that Su Xian has learned from his father for more than 20 years, it is no problem for the Su family to rise again.

It's a pity that God failed to fulfill people's wishes. Last winter, one of Su Xian's patients died of illness, which brought great disaster to Su Xian's family.

The patient was the father of an official. After Su Xian diagnosed the patient, he already knew the patient's condition. He didn't want to see the patient at first, but someone put a knife on his neck and had to admit the patient.

This wasn't Su Xian's fault in the first place, medicine and medicine can't kill the sickness, and it's really so sick that even the gods can't cure it.

But the official didn't think so. Although Su Xian begged in every possible way, the official found a reason to throw him into prison, and was going to be executed in autumn.

Su Xian's family sold their property to save Su Xian, but there was still nothing they could do.

At this time, the employees of the Nyasaland labor dispatch company found Su Xian, opened up the joints for Su Xian, and paid off all the debts. The price was that Su Xian's family would immigrate to Nyasaland.

If it was just Su Xian's family, then maybe Su Xian would rather die than go to Nyasaland.

But after seeing thousands of Chinese waiting to immigrate in the camp, Su Xian sadly accepted this fate.

-

Less than half an hour after the carriage drove, Su Xian's family was brought to the gate of a compound.

The coachman handed over to the guard at the gate of the compound, and then Su Xian's family was brought into the compound.

"Don't worry, you will be home when you get here. This is the transfer station of our Nyasaland Agricultural Company. You can rest here for a while, and then assign work after you get familiar with the water and soil." The attitude of the staff is not bad. , explaining to Su Xian while walking.

"Thank you—" Although Su Xian didn't know what "allocation of work" meant, she also knew that now was not the time to ask, so she just thanked him politely.

"You're welcome, since you are able to live in the transfer station, you will definitely be prosperous in the future, and I might as well greet you when I see you in a short time—" the staff member suddenly twitched himself a little One mouth: "Hey, why are you talking about this, we in Nyasaland don't like to say hello, you just live in a down-to-earth way—"

In the darkness, it was hard to see how big the transfer station was, but the lanterns on both sides of the road gave Su Xian's family some comfort.

Walking along the lantern, at a fork in the road, the staff brought Su Xian's family to the door of a house.

"You have a lot of family members, so you will live here for the time being. I will teach you how to use the lights now. We don't light candles here—" the staff chattered, and with a "click", the whole room was illuminated by lights, Su Xian finally knew what a "lamp" was.
