Chapter 384

It seems that there is nothing to worry about. After all, this kind of thing is very common. It is not that Phyllis is unaware of the relationship between Roque and Ada. As long as Roque does not bring Ada home, Phyllis can pretend Do not know.

This is not a drama of a wealthy palace, and Ada will not let Arthur go back in the future to compete for Rock's title and property inheritance.

To put it bluntly, the Rock family has a big business, and Ada has a lot of wealth.

So there is really nothing to argue about. Most of the so-called palace fights between rich and powerful families are actually deliberately creating conflicts.

Rock spent three days in Pretoria before returning to Johannesburg.

Phyllis did not have the slightest doubt. She seemed to be busier than Rock every day. In addition to Bigwig College, Phyllis also had to take care of the miners' children's school, which had already taken up all of Phyllis' free time.

There are now more than 2500 students in the school for the children of miners. Except for the fifth grade, which has less than 200 students, the other four grades have more than 500 students. It is no longer free, and the annual tuition fee exceeds 20 pounds. Chinese farmers are still willing to send their children to school.

The price is actually not high. The tuition fee of Bigwei Public School has now exceeded 150 pounds. There are still many parents who are willing to send their children to Bigwei Public School. In August this year, Bigwei Public School organized an entrance examination. Only 100 students are admitted to each grade, and more than 3000 students have registered.

Throughout Southern Africa, Bigwig College is recognized as a top school, just like Eton College in the UK. £150 is already more than the annual income of a middle-class family, but people who come to sign up are still flocking to it. In fact, it includes those related households, that is to say, even if Owen wants to send his children to Bigwig Public School, it is included in the 100 places, so the number of places for admission to Bigwig Public School is really high. Very sought after.

If it were someone else, they might expand the enrollment scale at all costs.

But Bigwig Public School was not moved by it. It agreed to have 100 students, that is, 100 people. It would rather not make money than expand its enrollment scale. high quality service.

In Bigwig Public School, there are almost two students in one dormitory. It is of course possible to expand to four students in one dormitory, but it is not necessary.

In the school for the children of miners, there are four students in one dormitory.

"Of course, we can also change the four-person dormitory into a two-person dormitory like Bigwei Public School. However, in order to improve the communication skills of students, the four-person dormitory is still very necessary. Except for the dormitory, we have all aspects of the dormitory. The standard is the same as that of Bigwig College, and even the scale of the library and study rooms is larger than that of Bigwig College. Our library now has 30 volumes of books, and some fifth-grade students have helped teachers translate books, These students are really outstanding, and some of them are now qualified to go to Oxford and Cambridge.” Usually only at dinner, Phyllis has the opportunity to communicate with Rock. By this time, Phyllis was elated and chattering endlessly.

"Yes, if they are really qualified to go to Oxford and Cambridge, the school can pay scholarships to guarantee their life in Oxford and Cambridge." Rock is not blind and generous. Oxford and Cambridge themselves provide scholarships for students these years. During this period, students can get 80 pounds from Oxford or Cambridge every year, which is enough to guarantee the students' life in Oxford or Cambridge.

In fact, this is also a different kind of competition for talents. In this era, Oxford and Cambridge are the best schools in the world, and everyone hopes to receive education at Oxford and Cambridge.

Needless to say, those British students, Oxford and Cambridge should support them as a matter of course. For those students from other countries, Oxford and Cambridge also treat them equally. Even if they will not stay in the UK to work after graduation, Oxford and Cambridge will not It is a very smart move to treat them differently. In any case, both Oxford and Cambridge are full of favorability among students.

The school for the children of miners does the same thing. Although the current annual fee for the school for the children of miners is 20 pounds, in fact, the funds that the school for the children of miners subsidize each student every year is almost the same amount.

Among other things, so far, the school for the children of miners is still under construction. Because of Rock's high standards and strict requirements, all the buildings in the school for the children of miners are expensive permanent buildings, and even Johannesburg has not yet To achieve universal power supply, the schools for the children of miners have already used street lights, and the monthly expenditure of the schools for the children of miners is more than 1000 pounds for electricity alone.

Considering the relationship between Rock and Crocodile Co., this electricity price is already an internal price. The electricity price of Bigwig Public School is higher than that of the miners’ children’s school. In the eyes of many teachers and staff of the miners’ children’s school, the miners’ children’s school is very important for electricity. The use of it is almost a waste, but Rock is stubborn, and does not make any discounts on this issue.

"Next year, next year I plan to organize the best students to go to Oxford and Cambridge to take the exams. At that time, we can find a relationship. In any case, we must send a few students to Oxford and Cambridge to study. This will win the school the greatest honor " Phyllis is also prepared, there are many outstanding students in the school for children of miners, and now Phyllis hopes that everyone will know that there are such a large number of outstanding students in the school for children of miners.

"Don't be so anxious. The medical school should be completed next year. At that time, those outstanding students can enter the medical school. In the future, I plan to continue to build a comprehensive university with hardware facilities modeled after Oxford and Cambridge. Experts and professors at the same level, our Johannesburg students don’t have to go to the UK to receive higher education.” Rock is not in a hurry. To put it bluntly, Rock doesn’t trust Oxford and Cambridge that much. Locally in Johannesburg.

In fact, Oxford and Cambridge are really not so unattainable. The standards of talents these days are different from those of the 21st century. Students in the 21st century must go through a long period of comprehensive ability training, such as literature, mathematics, physics, chemistry, etc., to enter first-class schools. After reaching a certain level in many aspects, you are eligible to enter a higher institution for further study.

These days, the requirements for students are not so high. Students who graduated from Oxford and Cambridge law departments are only relatively proficient in law, and their knowledge in other aspects is not as good as that of current high school graduates.

Rock now does not have high standards for talents. Nyasaland and Johannesburg do not need comprehensive talents with multi-faceted knowledge, but only experts who are relatively outstanding in a certain field. Medical students do not need to spend too much on physical For a long time, students who study architecture do not need to study chemistry. Nyasaland will not design a more complete course until it has developed to a certain level. The needs of Assaran's development.

It’s not needed now, and it’s not yet at that stage. It’s still because of the original reason. Rock has to solve the problem of whether it is right now, and Rock will be qualified to say whether it is good or not in the future.

"If possible, send students to Europe as much as possible. Johannesburg is too far away from the civilized world. Even if they come back to Johannesburg in the future, I hope they can go to Europe to let them know that Johannesburg is far away from Europe. How big is the gap." Phyllis sighed, putting down the knife and fork, feeling a little bit uninspired.

The civilized world is the so-called center of the world. For now, only Europe is qualified to be called the center of the world.

Phyllis's intentions were good, but Roque could not agree with Felice's statement. In Roque's view, southern Africa is actually a civilized world, and has broader prospects than Europe.

Today's Europe is actually at an unprecedented peak period. In another ten years, a world war will break out in Europe, and then 20 years later, it will be the Second World War. At that time, Europe will be dragged into the abyss by continuous wars .

Southern Africa does not seem to be doing well now, but in Africa, southern Africa is an invincible existence, just like the United States in the Americas, because the surrounding countries have no rivals, so the United States can focus more on economic development, and wait until Europe is defeated When war drags down and development stagnates, the United States can take its place.

Rock doesn't have such big ambitions. Although southern Africa is also blessed by nature, there are many internal conflicts in southern Africa. The conflicts between the British, Boers, and Zulus cannot be reconciled, and the Chinese will not be alone in future struggles. , So Rock's ideal is that in southern Africa, at least there is a back garden of the Chinese, so that the Chinese can remain invincible no matter what.

Now it seems that the back garden of the Chinese is Nyasaland, or it can also include Rhodesia and Transvaal. If there is not much conflict between the Chinese and the British in these places, then in the future, In these places, Chinese and British can coexist.

Of course, if the English-Americans cannot tolerate the Chinese-Americans in the future, or if the Chinese-Americans demand more benefits, then Roque will die to survive.

"Believe me, in the future the Transvaal will be as advanced and developed as the mainland. We will take root in this land and multiply. No one will disturb our life." Rock said fiercely, whether it was a Zulu or a Boers, as long as someone dares to make an idea of ​​the Transvaal, Roque will kill him.

As for Rhodesia and Nyasaland, there is probably no living space for Boers and Zulus in these two places. Although there are many Zulus in Nyasaland now, but when the railways and roads are repaired, Rock All the Zulu people will be sent away to avoid future troubles.

 Sorry, I have something to do today, the update is a bit late, there will be a chapter later, it should be relatively late, brothers who can’t wait can watch it together tomorrow——
