Chapter 6 Darkness

The Indian police hired by the British are all Sikhs, mainly from the Punjab region of India.

Sikhism is a worldly religion in India. Turbans, steel hoops, daggers and shorts are the main characteristics of Sikhs. Compared with India's caste system and secular customs, Sikhism advocates equality and precepts for everyone. The values ​​of the British, so the British recruited policemen from Sikhism, which was widely used in the management of colonies around the world. For example, the red-headed assan in Li De's mouth was an Indian policeman hired by the British Concession of the Qing Dynasty.

The same is true for Cape Town. In 1900, the total population of Britain was only 3750 million. Compared with the colonies all over the world, Britain simply did not have enough manpower to manage it. Auxiliary management, obedient Indians are obviously the best choice for the British.

Of course, compared to the Indians, the British actually have better choices. After all, India has only 8000 million people, while the Qing Dynasty has 7000 million Chinese, so in terms of population ratio, the Chinese obviously have more Great potential, from the Huayong camp to the police, is a series of attempts by the British.

Relatively speaking, Rock does not think that the British trust Indians so much. Hiring Indian police is just a way for the British. people, get more trust than Indians.

"I know what Kunale did is not honorable, but you don't have the right to beat Kunale. Fighting between colleagues is strictly forbidden, so you have to pay for your audacity." Sharma didn't help Kunale to get ahead, but simply wanted to teach Rock a lesson. The Indians also despise Kunaler's escape behavior. No one wants their partner to escape alone when they are in danger.

Of course, this does not mean that Sharma approves of Rock's behavior. As Sharma said, even if Kunal's behavior is disgusting, Rock should not punish him. In other words, as a Chinese, Rock can't do anything to the Indians. This is the key to Sharma teaching Rock.

It depends on the owner to beat a dog. Indians have always regarded themselves as the most loyal dog of the British. Even if they are beaten, they can only be beaten by the British. Rock is simply powerless to complain.

"Sergeant Sharma, that wasn't a beating. It was a special way of greeting between Kunal and me. Kunal was so happy to see that I was safe and sound, so he passed out excitedly." Rock changed In other words, after all, Sharma's rank is higher than Rock's, and the face that should be given should be given. If Sharma is smart, he will not pester him endlessly, otherwise the matter will become serious, and the face of all Indian policemen will not be good. .

Probably because Sharma didn't expect Rock to be so difficult, so Sharma looked at Rock very intently for a while, then nodded with a sullen face: "Okay, I'll keep an eye on you, you'd better not Make a mistake, or you'll go back where you came from, and your fellow countrymen, by the way, your braids are ugly."

Where did this come from?

Rock almost laughed out loud, you are a Sikh, you laugh at the ugly braids of the Chinese, but you don’t look at what is wrapped in your turban. Grand, the more headscarves are worn on the head, the more spectacular the scale looks, from a distance it looks like a person with a jar on his head, no matter how ugly it is, can it be uglier than you?

Of course, whether it looks ugly or not varies from person to person, and has different habits. Rock sees Sharma's turban as ugly, but Sharma doesn't think so. On the contrary, Sharma thinks Chinese braids are ugly, and even Rock himself thinks so.

But fortunately, Rock doesn't have this problem now, because Rock's hair was shaved in the hospital because of the treatment, which saves Rock's trouble.

After uttering a harsh word, Sharma turned around and left with a dozen of his subordinates, which made Rock dumbfounded. In such a big battle, he thought there was going to be a big fight, but it turned out to be a harsh word, why bother? !

"Nimma scared me into a sweat. I couldn't help but want to do it just now." Anton looked at the backs of Sharma and the others and heaved a sigh of relief, then turned to look at Rock in surprise: "How can you speak foreign language? ?”

"Don't you? We've all been learning for so long." Rock casually found an excuse.

"It is true that I have learned it, but——" Anton couldn't tell the strangeness. He had learned it. Anton and Rock had learned English in the Huayong camp before, but it was obvious that Rock's English The level of fluency has exceeded Anton's understanding, which makes Anton puzzled. In other words, it is about the same nine years, He Ruxiu?

"Anton, we probably won't be able to return to the Qing Dynasty in the future, so let's learn English well." Rock didn't want to explain too much. To gain the trust of the British, he had to solve the language problem first, otherwise he couldn't understand the words. Why trust you.

Talking all the way back to the dormitory, Kunale was struggling to drag a large bag out of the house. It seemed that Roque's words were indeed carried out by Kunale. Roque watched coldly, not intending to help, but Anton Very surprised.

"This—" Anton's partner is also Indian. Of course, he knows the virtues of Indians. Cleaning up is absolutely impossible. Under normal circumstances, as long as there are Chinese and Indian partners, the Chinese are responsible for this kind of thing, and the Indians are responsible. It is intentional disgusting people, no matter how harsh the environment they are in, they can be happy, if the Chinese can see it, then the Chinese can also feel at ease, but if they can't see it——

"It's nothing surprising. The room is too messy. Kunale took the initiative to clean it. I just got out of the hospital. I'm very weak and not suitable for physical labor." Rock didn't feel uncomfortable in the slightest. When dealing with Indians, he had to Have a clear attitude, otherwise it is easy for Indians to push their noses on their faces.

Of course, Anton definitely doesn't think so, the shit is weak, and the shit is not suitable for physical labor. Just now Anton and Rock had a meal together. Anton watched Rock eat about a pound of beef, a plate of salad, A large piece of bread and a cup of coffee, if you can eat so much and still be weak, how can you eat a cow when you are strong?

It must be said that when Indians are facing a crisis, they still have a good sense of hygiene. The room was cleaned very neatly by Kunale, the windows were bright and clean, the air was fresh, and the garbage on the table and the dirty clothes on the bed were gone. , the floor was obviously swept and then mopped, and there was nothing wrong with Rock's standards.

"Very good, Kunal, you'd better clean up your personal hygiene. Go take a shower now, change into clean clothes, and keep it up. In the future, you will thank me for your good hygiene habits." In Anton's view, Rock's face is very hateful now, but for some reason, Anton has a dark feeling growing in his heart.
