Chapter 536

Money can build high-rise buildings and build roads and railways, but it cannot buy the improvement of the overall quality of residents.

Compared with those in the Qing Dynasty, the living standards of the Chinese in Johannesburg are completely different. Before they came to Johannesburg, most of them had no possessions at all. If you are full, you can say that you can't even eat enough on weekdays.

In Johannesburg, at least the Chinese can eat as long as they work hard, even if they didn't have such an opportunity before.

Even so, there was a scandal about Chinese fraudulently claiming relief funds in Johannesburg some time ago. In fact, it is not that those Chinese fraudulently claiming relief funds are greedy for money. Chance.

Even if some of the money does not come from glory.

Rock knows this reason, but he can't change it. It is very difficult to change the way of thinking of adults. Some people are stingy even if they have a lot of money, and some people are generous to their friends even if they are poor. These things are really hard to explain clearly in one or two sentences.

So human nature is complex.

Rock still pins his hopes on the next generation. Most of the second-generation Chinese in southern Africa are receiving education in schools. Regardless of their family circumstances, at least they all wear the same clothes and eat the same meals in school. Someone will tell them what kind of behavior is right, what kind of behavior is wrong, what kind of things can be done, and what kind of things can't be done, so that they can establish a basic concept of right and wrong, and they will be more mature when they grow up. Adapted to living conditions in Southern Africa.

Although Henry didn't know Rock's purpose, Henry would fully cooperate with Rock's work, so Henry and Rock returned to Johannesburg the next day. If he wanted to persuade General Hopkins, Henry had to come forward.

Now that the Johannesburg Railway Station has been named Milner Railway Station, the square in front of the station has naturally become Milner Square.

In the center of the square is a bronze statue of Ade riding a horse and whipping his whip. The bronze statue is about six meters high and was specially customized by the Johannesburg City Government from Itno. Engraved Ade's biography in English.

It is estimated that this resume will be added in the future. After all, it is not yet time for Adelaide to make a final conclusion. After the autonomy of southern Africa, Adelaide will also open a new chapter in his life. I don’t know when Adelaide and Southern Africa will be able to What kind of miracle has been created.

When Henry saw the bronze statue, he was fascinated. He obviously didn't expect that the Johannesburg city government would spend so much money in order to photograph Ade's horse.

Roque didn't care. Cecil Rhodes still has a statue in Little Rock. The square in the center of Little Rock is also called Cecil Rhodes Plaza. If Roque is willing, he can continue to build such a landmark in the future sex building.

as long as needed.

Bigwei Hospital has also changed a lot compared to before. Although the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology has been spun off from Bigwei Hospital and a dedicated Maternity and Children’s Hospital has been established, the scale of Bigwei Hospital has become larger. They are all wooden buildings. Now those single-family wooden buildings have been replaced with three-story reinforced concrete buildings. The entire hospital now has nearly [-] beds and nearly [-] medical staff. Southern Africa is second to none.

Even many patients from Cape Town traveled thousands of miles to come to the Bigwei Hospital for medical treatment. Colin Bellamy has now completely turned to administration and is responsible for the management and operation of the entire hospital. Colin Bellamy Bellamy will take charge personally.

General Hopkins was Colin Bellamy's patient.

"General Hopkins' blood pressure and heartbeat are not normal, but this is normal for a person of his age. The main problem is psychological problems. General Hopkins has been anxious recently. Diet and sleep are not normal, but these are small problems, just need to rest for a while." Colin Bellamy is also helpless, Hopkins is actually a heart disease, does not need to take medicine and injections at all, and does not need He was hospitalized for treatment, but as long as Hopkins was willing, Bigwig Hospital would provide Hopkins with a separate ward and take up precious medical resources.

This is privilege.

After listening to Colin Bellamy's introduction, Roque just nodded and said nothing. A large part of Hopkins' bad mood was because of Roque. I'm afraid that when Hopkins knew Roque's arrangement, he would immediately Heal without treatment. After all, it is impossible for the future Southern African Federation to choose a patient as the Minister of Defense.

When Henry went to Hopkins, Rock turned his head and went home. Phyllis was undergoing an examination at home, which was handled by Dr. Kay Mallory herself.

"Everything is normal for the child. Don't worry too much. Maintaining a good mood will be more conducive to the development of the fetus. During this period, you should eat less and more meals, and eat as many fruits and vegetables as possible, but you must also eat fat and protein. The fetus also needs adequate nutrition in order to develop healthier." Kay Mallory is Rock's family doctor and has a very close relationship with Phyllis. After Rock arrived home, Dr. Kay Mallory took the initiative to leave.

Although Kay Mallory worked at Bigwig Hospital, Kay Mallory obviously didn't like Rock.

This is mainly because of Ada. Although the "feminist movement" has not risen yet, Dr. Kay Mallory is a standard feminist. She is quite critical of Rock's irresponsible behavior, so she rarely Actively communicate with Rock.

Rock doesn't care about Kay Mallory's attitude, as long as Kay Mallory is serious and responsible in his work, it's impossible for Rock to make everyone like him and just do his job well.

Back home in Bigwig Town, Phyllis was still a little unaccustomed to it. Compared with Bigwig Town, Nyasaland is Rock's territory, that is, the new [-]st Cavalry Division is stationed in the Transvaal Otherwise, Phyllis would really rather live in Nyasaland.

"How about Hopkins' stalemate body?" Phyllis asked casually, mainly because of Henry.

"Basically it's nothing serious. The new First Cavalry Division has taken away many people's jobs, so General Hopkins is probably a little unhappy." Rock was not polite in front of Phyllis, but in front of Henry's The surface still needs to be reserved.

"They deserve what they deserve. If they can't keep their jobs, they should find a way to change their jobs instead of blaming those who broke their jobs." Phyllis is sometimes sharp-tongued, which probably has a lot to do with pregnancy. After all, the mood of pregnant women is fickle.

In fact, there are many people like this, even most of them are like this. Phyllis has seen a lot of this kind of people, and the previous Matilda family was basically like this. If it wasn't for Henry in southern Africa If the situation is opened, the Matilda family is still the shabby household that guards Matilda. This is the case for many nobles that Phyllis knows.

"It would be great if there were more people like this—let's go, I'll go out for a walk with you—" Rock wanted to urge Phyllis to exercise, and during this time Phyllis finally felt a little fleshier than before , but not too fat, this has always been a very worrying issue for Phyllis.

"Where is Ada now?" Phyllis deliberately mentioned Ada, and then squinted at Roque's reaction.

"Be careful of the steps—" Rock didn't answer, and everything he said was wrong at this time.

Henry also said that everything was wrong. Hopkins was more stubborn than Rock imagined. Rock thought that Hopkins would reciprocate when he extended an olive branch. Unexpectedly, Hopkins would not accept it at all and rejected Henry on the spot. suggestion.

"I don't want to be the Minister of Defense. I'm about to retire now. The future of southern Africa belongs to you. We old guys should make room for you—" It can be heard that Hopkins still has resentment.

"Daddy—" Lacey reminded Hopkins immediately.

Hopkins rolled his eyes, and then he was angry like a child: "What does Locke think he is? He is what he says? He is not the future Prime Minister of the Southern African Federation. If he needs to arrange my work , wait until he has that power."

"Okay, if you really want to retire, I'll buy you a farm in Pretoria, build you a house, hire two servants, buy you a horse, a dog, nothing to do Sometimes it’s good to ride a horse and walk the dog.” Lacey knew Hopkins very well, and it sounded like she was thinking about Hopkins, but Hopkins sounded awkward.

"I don't live in Pretoria. You may have forgotten that your home is in Cape Town. I don't need you to buy me a farm. I have money to buy it myself, let alone a horse. Dog, it’s enough to send Paula to me.” Hopkins also has money himself, so the general for so many years is not for nothing.

This request is better than just asking for money, Lacey immediately refused: "Paula is impossible, Paula will only stay in the Transvaal, and in two years Paula will be able to go to school, I am going to let Paula go to Biggonia Public school, the best school in all of Africa."

"Why don't you go to the best school in the world? There are so many good schools in this country. Paula should be educated here in order to become a real lady—" As long as it is related to Rock, Hopkins will Dislike.

"Paula is my daughter, and only I have the right to decide Paula's life." Lacey refused to give in. Although Hopkins liked Paula very much, Lacey would definitely not give in on key issues.

"Mr. Alfred Milner has decided to return to Southern Africa to compete for the future Prime Minister of the Southern African Federation. He came back with Roque—" Henry directly explained why Roque had confidence, unless Hopkins really He wants to retire, otherwise Hopkins may have to accept Rock's arrangement.
