Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 456 Gold Plated

In order to express their support for the hostess, when Phyllis returned to her mother's house, Anna and Bella followed Phyllis to the mayor's mansion. Phyllis even took away the chef from the baron's mansion, and Roque returned to the baron's residence. The government didn't even have to eat.

Rock was also embarrassed to find a chef temporarily, and he really couldn't afford to lose this person. Zach tried very hard to cook for Rock, but he couldn't swallow it.

Rock threw away his chopsticks as soon as he took a bite. The steak was not cooked through. Although Zach carefully removed all the burnt parts with a knife, it was still difficult to eat: "You did it on purpose, right? You can't even fry a steak, it's impossible Wouldn't it be stewed?"

Rock was depressed. Zach probably did it on purpose, otherwise it would be impossible to make it so unpalatable. Obviously, when he was outing in the past, Zach's barbecue skills were very good.

Zach can't speak, he can only make gestures.

"There's new equipment in the kitchen, and you don't know how to use it! It's a good reason." Rock pulled off the napkin and threw it on the table in front of him, and then wanted to feed the steak to the big guy, wanting to see if the big guy would eat it.

Then Rock found out that the big guy probably followed Phyllis back to her natal family.

Rock was so angry that he couldn't live a life like this. The whole family, big and small, even the dogs were traitors, and he didn't know how Phyllis bought people's hearts.

Zach would not betray Rock anyway, and Phyllis could not be shaken, so she continued to make gestures with Rock.

"Oh, Anna and Bella are going to persuade Phyllis to come back, so they can't take all the chefs away?" Rock actually knew that Phyllis might not be very angry, and most of them were just expressing an attitude, but this approach absolutely cannot be advocated.

So Rock decided to go to Philip's house for dinner, and see if he could coax Phyllis back by the way.

When Rock came to Philip's house, Phyllis had already had lunch and was reading English stories to coax Gavin to take a nap. This is said to be the most authentic way of life for nobles.

Rock was complaining, if a child who is a few months old can understand Shakespeare, only a time traveler can do it.

"Is there anything to eat? I'm starving to death——" Of course, Rock had to behave as miserable as possible. Before coming, Rock even considered whether to change a set of dirty clothes. The reason why he didn't change in the end was because he lost I'm sorry for that person.

"You can go to the banker's house to have dinner—" Phyllis was so arrogant that she even picked up the airs.

At this time, she saw the benefits of internal support, Bella and two maids sneaked over to bring all kinds of small snacks, and the table was piled up in a short while.

"It's better to eat at home—" Roque started immediately with a pun.

Phyllis was complaining, and she didn't forget to pour water for Rock.

"It's too crowded here." This was the reason Rock had thought up on the road.

Although the mayor's mansion is large, there are only so many servants' rooms. There are also many servants on Philip's side, and with the people brought back by Phyllis, it is indeed a bit crowded.

"It's a bit crowded, but there's nothing wrong with it." Phyllis hadn't put down the novel in her hand, but she obviously wasn't focused on the novel. Gavin's babbling protests failed to attract Phyllis' attention. .

"Phyllis—" Owen, who arrived in time to watch the fun, reminded Phyllis not to overdo it, as there are only a few steps.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's my fault, I didn't handle it well." Rock immediately admitted his mistake, this matter can't be blamed on Phyllis' ignorance, even a woman would be angry.

"What are you going to do?" Phyllis is still inexperienced. The best way to pretend not to know about this kind of thing is to directly clarify the problem. Is it possible to bring Arthur back?

Ada would not agree either, Arthur's surname is not "Lock", but "Capet".

If it were someone else, maybe there would be a farce of grievances and grievances involving noble titles and property.

Rock doesn’t have this problem here. Ada herself is also very rich. In addition to the shares of Rand Bank, lighters, and bars, Ada himself has a farm with an area of ​​more than [-] acres in the Cape. Now the specialty store has opened to In Europe's "Itno", Rock's own shares were given to Phyllis, and the other half of the shares belonged to Ada, which means that neither Felice nor Ada knew about it. If they knew, it is estimated that Phyllis Both Seth and Ida would be mad.

Even Rock himself didn't realize this situation.

As long as Gavin can grow up safely, then Baron Nyasaland's first inheritance right must belong to Gavin, unless Phyllis has no sons, otherwise it will not be Arthur's turn to inherit the right, so Phyllis really has no You need to be angry, compared to those big shots who have countless lovers and illegitimate children, Rock is already clean.

"I listen to you. Whatever you say is what you say." Rock didn't want to do anything, so it's okay to live in peace.

Phyllis is definitely not good, so Phyllis tried her best to put on a vicious look: "Bring Arthur back, let him change his name to Locke, and I will raise him."

This is so true that Rock can't even imagine it.

"Don't, Phyllis, or you will regret it." Owen disagreed, Phyllis's method was not very clever.

This kind of operation is not impossible, but it is only limited to the premise that the child's biological mother has no power or power. This situation is unlikely for Ada. If Phyllis wants to take Arthur away, Ada will probably go crazy.

Phyllis was actually talking angrily. If she really wanted to take Arthur home, no matter what happened to Arthur, Phyllis would be embarrassed in the end.

After Philip saw Roque, he didn't show his face to Roque, but it was still obvious that Philip still had opinions on Roque.

In fact, all this shit happened to Roque before he married Phyllis. You can't blame Roque for being young and frivolous. Philip was also at Roque's age when he was young and frivolous. Man, there is nothing wrong with it Not guilty is a saint.

The key is future performance.

After Roque and Phyllis got married, they were quite responsible for the family. At least Roque didn't have any ambiguities with other people.

As for Ada, if there is no Arthur, Roque may be able to distance himself from Ada.

Don't think about it now, with Arthur's existence, Roque is destined to be entangled with Ida in this life, as long as Roque doesn't spoil his concubine and destroy his wife, Philip can pretend not to know.

Philip could still understand the stakes.

"The governor's term will end in August, and the new governor may be the Earl of Selborne. The Earl of Selborne is too old, and I'm afraid he won't be able to do everything himself like Governor Ade. At that time, the Transvaal will be The democratic representative system will be implemented in an all-round way, and you must be prepared, the Liberal Party must win the final victory." Philip didn't mention this at all to Rock, and the upcoming general election was the focus of Philip's attention.

On August 1900, 8, Alfred Milner was appointed Governor of the Transvaal and Orange, and it has been five years now.

By July 7 this year, Alfred Milner's term of office will end. Roque had previously hoped that Ade would stay, but now it seems that this is an extravagant hope after all. The new governor is Selber, who is completely unfamiliar to Roque. Earl En, this is not good news for Rock.

In any case, Rock was single-handedly promoted by Ade, so Ade has a kindness for Rock.

According to the Chinese tradition, there is no need to emphasize the importance of kindness. "Reborn parents" are used to describe this kind of relationship. Although now Rock has a certain foundation and has many partners, Ade is always Rock. The biggest backer.

Relying on the mountains and falling, relying on everyone to run, the ancients are honest and not deceived, and Rock still has to rely on himself in the end.

Both Rock and Owen nodded. Owen's qualifications are too low. Even if the Liberal Party wins the Transvaal election, Owen may not be qualified to be the speaker of the Transvaal Parliament. Philip is the most suitable candidate, so this time In the election, Philip will personally stand for the Liberal Party.

When the democratic representative system is fully developed, the speaker of the parliament and the prime minister will not be held by the same person. However, this problem does not exist in southern Africa. Cape Town has implemented a democratic representative system for many years. Now the prime minister and the speaker are all composed of Adjunct by Dr. Starr Jameson.

"Locke, you are going to London for the next period of time to get a formal degree." Philip has arrangements for Rocke.

"Go to London?" Rock was surprised. Owen had raised this question with Rock before, but Rock didn't agree at that time. In Rock's view, things like degrees don't have much effect on Rock.

"Yes, go to London, Sandhurst Royal Military Academy, I have already contacted General Victor Foster for you, you can enroll directly." Philip hoped that Rock could get a degree, which would be more beneficial to Rock Influence the future of South Africa.

Although Rock has received higher education that is more advanced than this era, Rock of this era is still a "hillies" without any degree.

This is obviously very disrespectful for a nobleman, Henry, that ignorant guy, also studied at the Sandhurst Royal Military Academy.

But it is a pity that Rock is not interested in Sandhurst Royal Military Academy. It is a waste of time to go to school. After Cecil Rhodes made money, he also entered Oxford University to study, which was enough for him. It took eight years for Cecil Rhodes to get his diploma from Oxford University.

Rock didn't want to go to the Sandhurst Royal Military Academy and waste eight years. Eight years later, the First World War was about to break out.

"If you want to play a bigger role in the future, then you need to get more recognition. Don't worry, it's just a short-term training. In the military, there are not many people who are qualified to teach you anything." Philip obviously had more feelings for Rock. High expectations, that guy Henry is fine, to get to where he is today, Henry has exceeded Philip's expectations of him.

Philip was not lying. The raid on the Cape Town police who killed Joubert during the Boer War had already been included in the textbooks of the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst. Roque was in command of that battle.
