Chapter 739

The proportion of Chinese students in Sunset Primary School exceeds 70.00%, and the remaining 30.00% are all white.

This ratio does not represent the ratio of Chinese to whites in Nyasaland, but it is still barely acceptable in the eyes of Louis Botha. At least as far as what is seen now, Nyasaland is not the legendary extreme xenophobia .

After lunch, returning to the reception room of Sunset Primary School, Louis Botha had a better understanding of Nyasaland’s education system, especially the schedule of Sunset Primary School. As an adult, Louis Botha felt that the curriculum arrangement The ones are a bit too dense.

Starting at 02:30 in the morning, there are four classes in the morning until 06:30 noon, then two and a half hours of lunch and lunch break, starting at [-]:[-] in the afternoon, and another four classes until [-]:[-] in the evening .

In addition to Chinese and English, the courses offered by Sunset Primary School also include mathematics, history, social practice, and body, music and beauty.

It was the first time for even Rock to see the specific class schedule, but the position of body music and beauty here is more important, especially sports. There are four sessions every week to ensure that students have enough time for activities.

Louis Botha did not ask why there is no Boolean language. Asking is self-inflicted. Nyasaland does not prohibit the use of Boolean language, but it does not advocate it. The attitude of not asking is the most deadly, and it will be gradually forgotten.

If you don’t believe me, just ask any student, most likely they don’t know whether Boer is the official language of southern Africa.

"What is the content of social practice?" Louis Botha has concerns.

"The content of the social practice class is the richest, mainly for various visit experiences. We will use the social practice class to organize students to visit museums, farms, factories, scientific research units, police stations, and military camps, so that students have a good understanding of all walks of life in society. Fully understand, so that students can cherish their current life more, and thus stimulate students' interest." Pierce finally returned to normal, and the principal who didn't make demands is still a good comrade.

Louis Botha was heartbroken. The gap was all-round. Students in Orange only had four classes a day. Considering the teaching level of the teachers, the quality of teaching could not be expected.

Students in Nyasaland have eight classes a day. The quality of teaching is better and the teaching content is richer. It is like a person who is richer than you and works harder than you. The current gap cannot be reflected for the time being. If you only look at the students The test scores of the students in Orange are not bad, but after graduation, the gap in overall quality will be infinitely widened.

Exam scores can be deceiving. Southern Africa does not currently implement joint exams, which means that the exam papers are different in each state, and the difficulty of the exams is naturally different.

The teaching level in Orange State is not high, and the difficulty of the exam can be imagined. The State Education Bureau will also use lower-difficulty exam papers for political performance, so that students' grades will be higher, and the officials of the Education Bureau can live in face .

As for museums, there are no museums in Orange. The only state library is in Bloemfontein, which was built with the assistance of the federal government.

To the embarrassment of all Boers, most of the books in the Orange State Library are in English and Chinese, and few books are in Boer. The Orange State Government is also unable to organize large-scale translations. It's just that translation is useless, and you have to pay to print it out.

"What about history?" Louis Botha was very curious about what would be written in Nyasaland's history textbooks. What is there to write about in just ten years of history? You can't write about British history. It is so dark and horrible.

"The content of our history class is mainly compiled based on the history of the Chinese. To put it bluntly, we can take a look at the history of all ethnic groups in the world, including our Chinese. Other ethnic groups either have no history or no inheritance. I think Studying history can only be made up, and some history books are not as good as reading the Bible." Pierce is really blunt, Louis Botha's face is really ugly, the Boers are a nation without history.

The Boers gradually formed from the eighteenth century. The original Boers were Dutch. The word "Boer" means "farmers" in Dutch. Later, with the addition of immigrants from other ethnic groups, the composition of the Boers also increased. It's very complicated. Boer is actually a Dutch dialect mixed with French, German, Malay and Xhosa, so there is really nothing to write about the history of the Boers.

"The history of the Chinese is complete?" Louis Botha didn't mean it, he really didn't know.

"Of course it is complete. We have a complete inheritance. Since we Chinese established the first country, each dynasty of inheritance will record the history of the previous dynasty in detail. We Chinese believe that history can be used as a mirror to understand gains and losses. This sentence always reminds us not to make mistakes. Mistakes our ancestors made—" Pierce misses the point.

"Louis, we Chinese have a history of 5000 years of civilization, which is earlier than the birth of the Holy Son." Rock knew how to hit Louis Botha harder.

"Fuck you, you're blasphemy—" Louis Botha blurted out.

The Holy Son mentioned by Roque refers to Jesus. In the western calendar, the year Jesus was born was the year of AD. Roque couldn't figure out which year the year of AD was relative to the Chinese calendar, but in Roque's memory , the chronology of BC in history really abounds.

"How can this be blasphemy, the Son is with me." Rock immediately emphasized.

In the past, Protestantism was not worried about its development in southern Africa because it was the Anglican religion. As a result, Catholicism took advantage of it. In southern African states except Cape, Catholics have more believers than Protestants.

After realizing this mistake, Protestantism gradually increased its investment in southern Africa. Many public facilities in Nyasaland were donated by Protestantism. Only then did Protestantism obtain the same status as Catholicism in Nyasaland.

It is so difficult even for the British state religion to enter Nyasaland. One can imagine the price that the Catholic Church paid for the church in Nyasaland.

By the way, Frank is now the Archbishop of the Catholic Diocese in Southern Africa, and it is said that he is already qualified to participate in the competition for the next Pope. Rock does not know if history has gone astray.

Louis Botha didn't worry about how great 5000 years are, but asked for a history textbook, saying that he would take it back and read it slowly.

Such a request can be met, and Rock simply brought a whole set of textbooks from Nyasaland Primary School to Louis Botha, in both Chinese and English versions. As for whether Louis Botha can understand it, Rock didn't care.

Back at the Rhodesian Hotel, Luis Botha was exceptionally silent at dinner.

As usual, Stoudemire came to grab a meal, and when he entered the door, he collapsed on the chair and looked like no one. It is said that he went hunting in the countryside for a day.

"There are still wild animals in the suburbs now?" Rock really doesn't know, Stoudemire loves hunting, and Rock has followed him once, but he is really not interested and has no time.

"I have a hunting ground, but you Chinese are too industrious. In the past, Nyasaland was full of wild animals. It was a hunting paradise. Now there are farmlands everywhere, and you can't even see a pheasant. You are destroying the ecological environment." Stoudemire It's really not a complaint, he doesn't care what it means to turn a hunting ground into a farmland, and he is suspected of becoming a virgin.

The rich people solve problems in a simple and rude way. Although the land in the suburbs of Little Rock City has been turned into farmland, the barren hills in the outer suburbs cannot be used, so Stoudemire bought a few mountains and circled them as hunting grounds.

There is no need to ask Rock for this kind of thing, just spend money directly. The Nyasaland State Government and the Little Rock City Government are also a bunch of money tricks, as long as the money is given, it is easy to say.

"Go to Tanganyika, where is the original ecology?" Rock is not angry. If Nyasaland wants to develop, it must encourage the rich to consume. You can't count on those poor farmers who deduct money from chicken butts.

"Hurry up and shoot down Tanganyika, and we can go fishing in Lake Victoria." Stoudemire has big dreams, but he needs Rock's help to realize them.

"Lake Niassa and the North Sea are not enough for you to fish?" As long as the Germans don't make trouble in the past two years, Rock will not torment the Germans.

"Anyway, we have to fight sooner or later." Stoudemire casually said.

Louis Botha was terrified when he heard it: "Sooner or later?"

Louis Botha is a soldier, and he is very sensitive to the consequences of war. If it weren't for the Boer War ten years ago, the Boers would not be reduced to where they are today.

Now Tanganyika is still a German colony, what Roque and Stoudemire meant, sooner or later a war will break out between Southern Africa and Tanganyika, which makes Louis Botha very worried, worried that the entire southern Africa will be destroyed by Roque dragged into the abyss.

"That's for sure, how can you allow others to snore on the side of the couch!" Xiaosi was full of domineering.

"What do you mean?" Louis Botha was surprised that Stoudemire could speak Chinese.

"It's really uneducated if you don't study. There are more and more Chinese in southern Africa. It may be difficult for you to move forward if you don't know Chinese. There are more and more Chinese in your Ministry of Agriculture. If they use Chinese to chat, you don't know what they are talking about. Will it be Very depressed? I guess they scolded you with a smile, but you don't know." Xiaosi was sinister.

"It's just nonsense!" Before Louis Botha could speak, Roque covered his head and face. Such words cannot be said, and they are not conducive to unity.

"The staff of the Ministry of Agriculture use Boolean or English during their work." Louis Botha still has reason and will not affect his evaluation of the Chinese just because of a sentence or two.

However, what Stoudemire said is indeed reasonable. Judging from the current development trend, there will indeed be more and more Chinese in southern Africa in the future. Now there are many white people in southern Africa who are learning Chinese. The Transvaal and Nyasaland are Directly promoting Chinese as a teaching language, Rhodesia also has this trend. Chinese and Boer are both elective courses, but most students take Chinese as an elective, and there are very few students who choose Boer.

 Isn't it forbidden to set off firecrackers? Why are there so many——
