Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 425

Rock still underestimated the influence of the Liberal Party. The Liberal Party's revenge has not yet begun, and the National Party has already collapsed.

Arnold's resignation was the beginning of an avalanche.

On the day of Arnold's resignation, more than 300 members of the National Party left the party at the same time, and fewer than 50 members remained in the National Party.

Among the 50 people, Xia Jiu buried the secret line in the National Party.

Originally, these people were also going to withdraw, but Roque believed that through this incident, those who remained in the National Party should gain more trust from Henry Alsop, so he simply continued to bury these pawns, hoping The future can work.

At the beginning of July, just one month before the general election, the National Party announced the closure of the Johannesburg branch and the withdrawal of all staff to Pretoria to ensure the election two years later.

The current election is only in Johannesburg. Two years later, there will be an election in the entire Transvaal, and then will be the time to see the truth.

"So, is the case that happened some time ago no longer pursued?" Owen expressed dissatisfaction at the family meeting. Although there is no evidence that Henry Alsop killed the man, Henry Alsop Leaving Johannesburg, Owen is still not reconciled.

"What else can I do? Go to Pretoria and bring Henry Alsop back? Don't be stupid, it's impossible. Just find a reason and let someone publish it in the newspaper. Anyway, after a while People will forget in time." It was inconvenient for Philip to say this, so it was better for Rock to do it for him.

Sometimes, many things have no answers, such as the case of the murder of William Temple. Although the murderer has been caught, the real culprit behind the scenes is still at large. , Roque has so many things to do every day, it is impossible to concentrate on a certain case, and it is impossible to solve every case in the 21st century. Pursuing this at the beginning of the 21st century will exhaust Roque to death.

So most of the time, peace and mud is the main way to deal with it. For example, in this case, Johannesburg can randomly issue a statement in the newspaper, saying that the police station has identified the real culprit and is investigating. If you are interested in knowing the truth, time will dilute everything.

"Is this your police's attitude in handling cases?" Owen was very dissatisfied at the moment.

Rock didn't speak, but looked at Owen quietly.

"Sorry—" Owen also knew that Rock's way of handling it was right.

"I'm also sorry. I really didn't know that Henry Alsop would be so crazy. If I had known in advance, I would have stopped him." Arnold's expression was sincere, but Rock could not feel Arnold's sincerity .

"That's it, Arnold, you are responsible for comforting the family of the deceased. You have to pay for the amount of money you need. This is the price you should pay." Philip is also reckless. This is the sorrow of ordinary people. Life is often just exchanged. chips.

This is a bit cruel to say, but this is the fact. Don't forget that this is South Africa in the early 21th century. Even in the [-]st century, South African lives are not very valuable.

"Okay, I've sent someone to send 500 pounds to that poor man's wife, God bless her." Arnold looked sympathetic.

Although Roque is not happy, this is already the best way to deal with it. Even if Roque has evidence, Roque probably has nothing to do with Henry Alsop. This is the privilege of the nobility and the rule recognized by the whole society. If Roque Insisting on Henry Alsop paying the price would be making Rock an enemy of society.

Rock has passed the second term.

"What are you going to do next?" Philip still cared about Arnold.

"I'm going to form a socialist party and run in the upcoming general election - don't look at me like that, Owen, I know the Liberal Party will win, the Socialist Party is only running to make the election look fairer, and it won't cause any trouble for the Liberal Party. "Arnold was in high spirits, delighted with his wit.

But except for Arnold, everyone's expressions were a little dignified, including Philip.

"There are some people who followed me and left the National Party. They have lost their jobs now. I should be responsible for them. And don't you think it is ridiculous that there is only one political party competing for an election? Since it is an election, it must look like an election. At least there should be two parties participating in the competition." Arnold looked anxious, and the reason he was looking for was actually reasonable.

This is also because the Liberal Party is too strong in Johannesburg. After the National Party disbanded the Johannesburg branch, there is only one Liberal Party left in the Johannesburg area. Even some people who want to compete with the Liberal Party are desperate for the strength of the Liberal Party.

Arnold is right, if things go on like this, then in august it's likely that only the Liberals will run, then Johannesburg's democratic representation system will be a joke and London will reconsider the Transvaal and Orange The necessity of a democratic representative system.

That being said, but Arnold organized the Socialist Party to run for election—

Both Roque and Owen felt a little ridiculous. Maybe this is the rhythm of raising tigers.

But Roque and Owen have no reason to object. What Arnold said is an objective fact. The election has not yet started, but it has attracted the attention of the whole society. The Cape Colonial Government will send people to Johannesburg to supervise. If only the Liberal Party participates in the general election, it would be shameful.

"Since you do it, then do it well, and don't engage in those little tricks that you don't know." Philip made a decision with one word, and Arnold was overjoyed.

When leaving the baron's mansion, Owen and Roque walked together.

"This is politics. If you lose, you win. As long as the Socialist Party doesn't make mistakes, we have no reason to refuse the Socialist Party to participate in the election." Owen can barely accept it, whether to kiss the family.

Rock doesn't want to comment. Although Rock and Arnold are also a family in name, Rock really doesn't like Arnold. Although Rock has been mentally prepared for the democratic representative system, when the election has reached this point, Rock is still concerned about the current situation. Everything is disgusting.

Since you don't like it, don't force yourself. Rock has rarely been to Johannesburg since July, and stays more in Bigwig Town.

The scale of Bigwig Town has reached its limit, and the population is about to exceed [-]. After discussing with Duncan, Rock and Duncan decided to gradually relocate the motorcycle factory and vodka factory in Bigwig Town to Oak Town, which is not far from Bigwig Town. The town only retains Bigwig Public School and Medical College, maintaining the size of Bigwig Town at its current level.

"Why not develop Bigwei Town into a city, so that we can have more say in the future and better protect our interests." Duncan was also poisoned by the democratic representative system, thinking that the democratic representative system can Solve everything.

"Don't worry, the democratic representative system is not as good as you imagined. The British are just experimenting in Johannesburg. Let's see the situation." Rock is not in a hurry. Rock is very satisfied with the current situation in Bigwig Town and has developed into the city. This level will attract more attention, which will bring unnecessary trouble to Ziwei Town.

As for the right to speak, Roque is not worried about this issue at all. The Liberal Party won the general election and will continue to protect the interests of the Chinese. Owen dare not cross the river and tear down the bridge. Otherwise, the Chinese can send the Liberal Party up, and they will naturally pull the Liberal Party down.

Therefore, Rock's main energy is to increase the income of Chinese Americans and strengthen the strength of Chinese Americans. This is the fundamental factor to ensure that the interests of Chinese Americans will not be affected.

"There is no problem with the operation of the farm. Potatoes, milk, and various poultry eggs are the main income of the farm. After a while, the farm will be able to provide meat products in batches to the outside world. Some farms now have hundreds of pigs. , the slaughterhouse in Doug Town slaughters dozens of pigs every day. Recently, the slaughterhouse even started slaughtering beef cattle. When all this is stabilized, we will renegotiate the contract with the Mining Union. Now we have the ability to completely replace Cape Agricultural Association." Duncan was full of energy, purely from the perspective of farms, Johannesburg's agriculture is more developed than that of Nyasaland.

So far, the farms around Johannesburg have been in operation for more than two years. The Chinese cherish the opportunity of owning land, try every means to increase their income, and work almost all the time.

With the help of the agricultural association and the financial support provided by the Rand Bank, the farms in the Johannesburg area have developed rapidly. Now some farms have tried to order tractors and trucks from Nyasaland through the agricultural association, that is, the output of tractors and trucks is now It is seriously insufficient, otherwise the farms in Johannesburg have even begun to mechanize.

Nyasaland has tried every means to increase the output of tractors and trucks, but with little effect. It is not easy to produce heavy machinery such as trucks and tractors. Many parts need to be built by hand, which is a problem for the technical level of workers. The test shows that before the standard production equipment is designed, Niasara is simply unable to provide tractors and trucks to the outside world, and even Niasara’s own needs cannot be guaranteed.

"How far has the Agricultural Association's improvement progressed?" Rock is more concerned about quality than scale. The Japanese can improve Wagyu. Even if the Johannesburg Agricultural Association does not have such a great ability, the improved Angus cattle are better than other places. .

"My lord, the improvement of breeding cattle cannot be completed in a day or two. The Agricultural Association has a laboratory dedicated to this work." Duncan looked embarrassed, and Rock was indeed a little eager for quick success sometimes.

"I know, I'm just asking—" Roque also knew that there was no rush, but time was not waiting for me.
