Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 407 Never Ending

A healthy society should ensure that all social strata have smooth channels for advancement.

The meaning of "ascending channel" here is not to reach the sky in one step. In the social structure of the pyramid situation, the more people go up, the fewer people go up, and the more difficult it is to go up.

It is not so easy to achieve class leapfrogging. With the development of society, there will be fewer and fewer examples of Cecil Rhodes getting rich overnight. Most people at the bottom can become the middle class through hard work, and the middle class is possible through hard work Entering the upper class, this is the normal class leap.

Those who dream of reaching the sky and getting rich overnight, and those who complain about the solidification of social classes, the widening of the wealth gap, and the narrowing of the upward path, are either stupid or bad. It is impossible to reach the sky in one step, and the upward path is getting narrower It's the truth, there is nothing to complain about, if you have the time to complain, it's better to work hard to improve yourself, so that there is a possibility of class leapfrogging.

The situation in Nyasaland is the same. At the top of the pyramid is Roque, then the Chinese management team headed by Buck, Duncan, Anton, Martin, and Gordon, and then Rudolf Diesel, Yi The white technicians headed by Seiya Ulysses (officer of Rhodesian Northern Division), Leah Lucas (expert of Christian Exploration Company) and others, ordinary Chinese are at the bottom of society.

Under such circumstances, when it comes to determining Nyasaland's future and destiny, if an ordinary Chinese at the bottom has the same voice as Buck, Anton and other high-level officials, it is simply a joke, no matter in terms of contribution or personal ability , Barker and Anton should have more say in the upper echelons themselves.

The management committee was headed by Buck, Anton, Martin, Rudolf Diesel, Michael Nichols (Rand Bank), Jeffrey Benson (Tractor Works), Andrew Whitman (Truck Works ), Nelson Morley (Arsenal) are members of the management committee.

Compared with the parliament in the general sense, Nyasaland's management committee is very different in the form of production. In the general sense, members of the parliament are elected, while Nyasaland's management committee is Roque's direct Appointment, to become a member of Nyasaland's management committee, pure prestige does not play a decisive role, and contribution to Nyasaland is the main factor.

Rock participated in the first meeting of the management committee, which legally determined the responsibilities of the management committee. Like the general parliament, from the day the management committee was established, the management committee had the functions of making legislation, forming the army, and establishing related functions. rights of the institution.

As a result, Nyasaland's current "Public Security Management Regulations" became Nyasaland's first law, and its name was changed to "Nyasaland Criminal Law", which prompted the establishment of Nyasaland Court, from Transvaal lawyer Kevin Mullen becomes Nyasaland's first justice.

Kevin Mullen is the cooperative lawyer of Umbrella Company. Kevin Mullen played a key role in the expansion of Umbrella Company. Rock appreciates Kevin Mullen's adaptability. Don't say that the judge must Righteousness, most of the time, judges have to consider the balance between law and emotion when hearing cases. This position is very important, and Rock also decided to let Kevin Mullen be the justice after weighing many factors.

Of course, in order to check and balance the rights of Kevin Mullen, Kevin Mullen is not a member of the management committee.

In other words, Kevin Mullen has no say in determining Nyasaland's future and destiny. This is very important. Kevin Mullen is just an executor, not a decision maker.

Nyasaland now has only one law, the Criminal Code, which has not yet been recognized by the British government. Therefore, Nyasaland still has a heavy legislative task in the future.

Considering the needs of legislation, Rock established another "Committee of the Communist Party". This time, Kevin Mullen became the chairman of the Commission of the Communist Party of China. Aspects of the law in no hurry.

The first administrative body established by the Management Council was the Tax Office.

It's funny to say that before this, Nyasaland did not have a tax bureau, and all business activities in Nyasaland did not need to pay taxes.

This situation definitely needs to be changed. Leaving aside business activities, the first task of the Nyasaland Tax Bureau is to determine personal income tax, which is also the first tax category in Nyasaland.

In Nyasaland, the income gap is still very obvious. Buck, the highest earner, has an annual salary of 1500 pounds, while the average farm worker with the lowest salary earns only 36 pounds a year. The gap between the two is nearly 42 times.

The tax determined by the tax bureau is implemented according to the proportion of income. The lower the income, the lower the proportion of personal income tax to personal income. The higher the income, the higher the proportion of personal income tax to personal income. Farm employees may only need to pay Ten percent of the income is taken as personal income tax. Buck, the chairman of the management committee, has to pay personal income tax every year, accounting for 50.00% of Buck's personal annual income[-].

In other words, the personal income tax that Barker has to pay every year is 825 pounds.

This may seem a bit much, but it is the main means to mediate the income gap between individuals. The taxes collected by the tax bureau will not be used to subsidize low-income families, but will be used for investment in public facilities. There is basically no low-income people in Nyasaland. Income families, as long as they have hands and feet, food and clothing are not a problem.

Of course, if you want to increase your income, you need to work harder. Farm employees can strive to become technicians, and factory workers can strive to become engineers. Nyasaland will provide various conveniences for those residents who are willing to make progress. It doesn't matter if you don't think about making progress, but if you don't think about making progress and at the same time complain about the unfair distribution mechanism in society, then you must be prepared for labor education.

Yes, in Nyasaland, "reform through labor" is the main form of punishment, except for those individual cases where the crime is so heinous that not killing people is not enough to outrage the people. Receive reform through labor in prison.

There are many kinds of "reform through labor" here, ranging from digging mines and rocks to sweeping streets and pasting paper boxes. There is no such thing as "mediation" in Nyasaland. If you violate the law, you will be punished. If the circumstances are serious, you will go to dig Mine and rocks, and if the circumstances are minor, you have to sweep the street and paste paper boxes to obtain living expenses during the imprisonment, otherwise you will starve. There is no condition to say.

In addition to personal income tax, business tax will soon be on the agenda.

There are almost no commercial activities in Nyasaland at present. Several large enterprises in the territory, such as tractor factories, truck factories, and arsenal factories, are actually planned economic models. The products produced are almost all internally digested, and they are not sold for profit. Therefore, Business taxes are few and far between.

In addition to these large enterprises, Nyasaland also has a large number of supporting enterprises, and these supporting enterprises are the biggest business taxpayers. The current business model of Nyasaland is probably the coexistence of a planned economy and a market economy. Well, in a short period of time, Nyasaland's business will not generate much taxation. Now that the rules are established first, there will be laws to follow in the future.

It is worth mentioning that the director of the Nyasaland Taxation Bureau is Left Whale, and Barker can be regarded as a good use of people. He directly formed the Nyasaland Taxation Bureau with "Brad" as his team.

Now it's all right, Nyasaland's tax work and security work are all in charge of the same group of people, and it will definitely be difficult to evade taxes in Nyasaland in the future.

On February [-]th, after mediation by various parties, the Belgian government and Nyasaland reached an agreement. In order to resolve the border dispute, the Belgian government recognized that Lake Mweru (called the East Lake in Nyasaland) belongs to Nyasaland as a whole, and will include The [-]-square-kilometer southern salient, including Lubumbashi, was sold to Nyasaland for which it had to pay the Belgian government £[-].

One pound per square kilometer, the price is really cheap. In the salient including Lubumbashi, in addition to the unknown copper mines, there are also huge plantations, and these plantations are planted It is natural rubber, which is very important to the industrial development of Nyasaland. Rock is willing to buy it even if it is 30 pounds, let alone [-] pounds.

After acquiring Lubumbashi, Rock was surprised to find that the territory of Nyasaland now stretches from Port Edward in the south, Beihai in the north, Lubumbashi in the west, and Nyasaland in the east.

Although there were no remote sensing satellites in this era, Roque could not be sure how many square kilometers the territory of Nyasaland had in total, but according to Roque's estimate, it should be no less than 50.

This territory is amazing. Zimbabwe in the 21st century is only 39 square kilometers. The current territory of Nyasaland seems to be larger than that of Zimbabwe.

At the end of February, the car developed by Bobby Holt was finally finalized after several adjustments, and the site of the car factory was directly placed in Port Edward.

The new car uses a 35-horsepower four-cylinder gasoline engine. Compared with all cars of this era, the new car is undoubtedly more in line with Rock's aesthetics. Most of the cars of this era are similar to tractors in the 60s, basically there is no aesthetic. In other words, the car developed by Bobby Holt is similar in appearance to the Willys Jeep launched by the American Willys Motor Company in 1940.

Of course, in terms of performance, there is a huge gap between the car developed by Bobby Holt and Willys Jeep, but this does not affect the final shape of the car.

Roque doesn't care about performance. Anyway, the current car is not ready to be sold. The finalization is only the first step. The next step is to continue to improve, continue to research and develop, and further pursue stability and better performance. Roque's requirements in this regard have always been eternal. endless.
