African Entrepreneurship Records 2

Chapter 1305 Reward
This is also the main reason why the Yevres intend to let Elva inherit their business. If he wants to be a seaman, he will have to think carefully.

Being a seaman in this era is truly a life-and-death situation and is extremely dangerous. After all, anything can happen at sea, including natural disasters, man-made tragedies, and so on.

As they were talking, the cargo on the ship had been completely unloaded. After docking the ship at a fixed location, the Yevres began to go ashore to look for a place to eat.

With the liberalization of the free market in East Africa, the catering industry in East Africa has ushered in a real boom, which is vividly reflected in the city of Kampala.

Restaurants of all types abound in Kampala, especially oriental cuisine, which has become more diverse in East Africa.

In the past, East Africa’s catering industry was disrupted by the planned economy, so even though there were many immigrants from the Far East in East Africa, the dishes only accounted for a small part.

Now, anyone with a basic cooking skill can open a small restaurant, which has greatly promoted the development of East African cuisine.

After all, East Africa itself is an immigrant country, and the cooking styles of the Eastern Empire, Germany, Italy, Slavic and other regions can be found in East Africa.

Among them, the Far East Empire and German cuisine are the most widely distributed. Coupled with East Africa's unique material conditions, these cuisines have been further integrated and developed in East Africa.

The most distinctive food in the Great Lakes region is naturally "fish". The Great Lakes are very rich in fish resources, with a variety of delicious freshwater fish species, coupled with advanced cooking techniques, making East Africans particularly particular about eating fish.

In East Africa, fish mainly comes from two sources: freshwater fish and marine fish. It is obvious that East Africans eat a much higher proportion of freshwater fish than Europeans.

This is related to the relatively short development history of the marine fishing industry in East Africa and the large number of lakes in East Africa. Among them, the freshwater fish in the Great Lakes, Lake Solon (Lake Tanganyika), and Lake Malawi are relatively famous.

For this purpose, the East African government has also issued special decrees to prevent species invasion and thus destroy the original fish growth environment.

This is naturally in response to the negative impact of the rampant Nile perch in the previous life. In the past, Lake Victoria caused the extinction of a large number of native fish species due to the introduction of Nile perch.

However, the Yevres are obviously not interested in eating fish. After all, they live almost entirely on the Great Lakes, and fish can be said to be the most common food on the ship. Naturally, they go to land to change their taste.

After landing at the Port of Kampala, walk about one kilometer northwest of the pier, and you will find a street dominated by restaurants, called Senhaier Street.

This street is obviously very different from many places in Kampala. It looks rather messy because the main people living here are dock workers.

The Port of Kampala is a large inland port in the Great Lakes region, so there are a large number of dock workers, and the business on Senhaier Street is basically supported by them.

The income of dock workers is not high, and the transportation of materials here is convenient, so the prices here are relatively low.

The Yevl couple came to a restaurant called on Senhaier Street, with a sign that read "Li's Farmhouse Cuisine".

Yevl said to the restaurant owner in a familiar voice, "Madam, please give me one portion of stir-fried sausage, one portion of beef with onions, and one portion of tofu skin with peppers."

"A serving of fried sausages..." the proprietress shouted towards the kitchen.

It is obvious that the catering industry in East Africa, especially the low-end catering industry, has been basically led astray by immigrants from the Far East, who have almost monopolized the market. This has also led to the fact that the catering services in East Africa today are almost the same as those in the Far East Empire in the previous life.

Even tipping, which is common in Europe, does not exist in East Africa. This is actually easy to understand. After all, when East Africa first started accepting immigrants, it basically selected the poorest people in each country.

The culture of tipping originated from the European upper class, but most of the upper class in East Africa came from the lower classes, the military or military academies, rather than the rich and decadent aristocrats who directly landed in the United States like American immigrants.

The difference between the two means that the upper class in East Africa has no habit of "tipping", and the lower class people in East Africa naturally cannot "follow the example of the upper class", even though people are now more affluent. This is also related to the fact that most of the catering practitioners in East Africa inherited from the Far Eastern Empire.

There is no doubt that the cooking skills mastered by the immigrants from the Far East Empire are far superior to those of other immigrant groups. The reason why some German delicacies and foods are still quite influential in East Africa is also related to East Africa’s previous cultural integration policy.

If the policy had been relaxed to allow the two to compete freely, I'm afraid other cuisines would not be a match for the Far Eastern Empire cuisine.

Rhine City.

Ernst was commending the National Defense Security Agency. As time went on, the gold from the Kazan treasury was successfully brought back to East Africa by the National Defense Security Agency.

It can be said that there were no dangers along the way. The most dangerous route was the one through Persia. After all, Persia was deeply influenced by Britain, and there were even British troops stationed in its territory.

If the news leaked, no one would remain indifferent to the gold in the Kazan treasury, as they had to guard against both the British and the Persians.

Finally, the wealth was completely safe after the National Defense Security Agency took it to a warship in the Persian Gulf.

"Mr. Brühl, in view of your great contributions to the empire, I hereby confer upon you the title of Viscount of the Empire and reward you with one million Rhine shields." Ernst said as he pinned an Iron Cross badge on Brühl's chest.

The Iron Cross badge of East Africa represents the highest honor and has so far only been awarded to thirteen people who have made great contributions to East Africa.

And if you look closely at Brühl's face, you will find that he is the leader of the Kazan Army who disappeared from Russia, General "Berezovka".

When it comes to rewards, East Africa is still relatively stingy. After all, according to Berezovka's contribution, a viscount is obviously not enough, but the East African government cannot raise his title too high at present.

After all, what Brühl did in Russia was not glorious, and the Kazan Army he formed became a new warlord force in Russia, so giving Brühl only a viscount is actually a protection for him.

The physical rewards are more realistic. One million Rhine guilders is not a small amount. Although the Rhine guilder is far less valuable than the British pound, it is also a currency directly linked to gold.

One million Rhine guilders is enough to make Brühl one of the new wealthy people in East Africa, which is also related to the national system and policies of East Africa.

You have to know that East Africa has only been open for eight years, so the rich people in East Africa are far less than those in traditional powers such as Britain and France. After all, their accumulation of hundreds of years is not something that ordinary people in East Africa can achieve in just a few years.

Moreover, although Brühl played an important role in the robbery of the Russian Kazan Treasury, there were as many as two thousand National Defense Security Service personnel involved in the robbery of the Kazan Treasury. With so many people, they naturally shared the "credit".

As the best among them, Brühl's profits were obviously reasonable. Of course, the East African government and the royal family made more money. With more than 200 tons of gold, it would not be an exaggeration to make Brühl a duke.

Of course, there are a number of dukes, marquises and counts in East Africa, and they are naturally more conspicuous. If Brühl mentions the count, it will obviously attract the attention of some interested people, although the probability is very small.

When Brühl was in the Kazan Army, most of the members of the Kazan Army had seen his true face, especially the more than 10,000 members of the Kazan Army who had been commanded by him personally.

Ernst naturally did not want the theft of Russian wealth in East Africa to be exposed, so he tried to conceal Brühl's identity as much as possible.
