Reborn as a police officer in South Africa
130 Gold mines that have not yet been discovered
It is important for people to know themselves.
Some people just don't have it, especially those who are dazzled by love.
Self-righteous love.
On the train, Phyllis looked out the window as the scenery flashed by, her mood was like the haze at twelve o'clock in the morning.
"Phyllis, let me do a little magic trick for you." Roque had many options. He took out a gold coin and threw it into the sky. He caught it with both hands, then made fists with both hands and stretched it out in front of Phyllis: "Guess the gold coin?"
In which hand?”
How the hell can this be considered magic?
Insulting IQ is not such an insult, right?
Felice's expression was broken, and her mood was probably also broken. She glanced at Rock with a look of grief and anger, then lowered her head and bit him.
"Are they born in the year of dog?!!" Rock was startled, and he could vaguely see Phyllis's little white teeth shining coldly.
"Don't move, let me take a bite!" Phyllis felt her teeth were itching. British people don't have their zodiac sign.
"Please eat some chocolate." Rock opened his palm, and there was a piece of chocolate in his palm.
So surprised, Phyllis's eyes were bigger than chocolate.
"How did you do it?" The snacker couldn't resist chocolate. He put the chocolate into his mouth and tasted the sweet taste of the chocolate.
This is the taste of love!
"Magic! Please call me Magician Locke from now on" Locke said righteously.
Felice's expression collapsed again, and she was followed by a series of small punches.
The small fist hit Rock and hurt Kevin's heart. Kevin sat diagonally across from Phyllis and was not even qualified to sit in the same booth as Phyllis.
Kevin was flanked and opposite by the strong men with poker faces from the commando team. This was specially arranged by Rock. After all, the mission of the commando team was to protect the staff of the Bureau of Mines.
Pretoria is only 50 kilometers away from Johannesburg. All the Boers near the railway have been thrown into concentration camps, so there is no need to worry about guerrilla attacks. The train speeds all the way and reaches Johannesburg in only two hours.
Only?
Both Rock and Phyllis felt that time flew by quickly.
Kevin feels like every day is like a year.
Johannesburg in the 21st century is the largest city in South Africa.
Johannesburg at the beginning of the 20th century was actually a small town. It was a city that emerged with the emergence of the Rand Gold Mine. After the gold mine was discovered, everyone was busy mining gold, and no one cared about urban construction at all.
So what appeared in front of Rock and Phyllis was a large, low-rise and disorderly shanty town.
It looks like a slum in the 21st century. Who would have thought that it is surrounded by the Rand Gold Mine with an area of 20,700 square kilometers.
Of course, only Rock knows this data.
At this time, no one, including the staff of the Pretoria Bureau of Mines, could have imagined that the Rand Gold Mine was so big.
After all, there are still many mineral fields that have not yet been discovered.
For example, the Far West Rand gold field, which only began to be mined in 1939, is the largest of the seven Rand gold fields and has produced a total of 349 million ounces of gold by the 21st century.
If you have no idea about 349 million ounces of gold, you can imagine that 349 million ounces of gold is about 512 cubic meters.
Converted into weight, it is about 9.9 billion grams, 9.9 million kilograms, 9900 tons
In this world, currently, only Rock knows the existence of the Far West Rand gold mine field. Although Rock does not know the location of the Far West Rand gold mine field, he can tell by looking at the name, "Far" and "West", one
It means distance, and one means direction. If you are a senior expert like Nelson Holt, you will know the approximate location of the Far West Rand gold field at a glance at this name.
For senior experts, knowing the approximate location and the difficulty of finding it is probably equivalent to what Rock said about fishing for gold in the river.
A pretty big gold nugget.
So Rock was really in no hurry. If it had been during the Transvaal Republic, Rock might have been worried about whether the outbreak of the second Boer War would affect the ownership of the gold mines.
There is no need to worry about this problem now. Although the Cape gained autonomous status shortly after the war, the Rand Gold Mine was always controlled by the British. The British only wanted the Cape's gold and did not care who controlled the Cape.
For the British government, the least valuable thing is land.
Considering Henry's aristocratic background, Roark is not worried about the ownership of the gold mine after discovering the gold mine. Cecil Rhodes is indeed powerful, but Henry's aristocratic background is enough to become Roark's talisman. Roark wants
What is being considered is the issue of sharing with Henry. As for the ownership of the gold mine, as long as Henry comes forward, not even the Queen can take it away.
So Rock is really not in a hurry. It's only 1900 now, and it's still far away from 1939. There's plenty of time.
"Locke, where is the gold mine?" Phyllis, like her brother, is astonishingly obsessed with gold.
"Around here, there are thousands of square kilometers of gold mines!" Rock was not joking, the Rand Gold Mine is really that big.
"Inspector Locke, if you are interested, you can also buy a gold mine for fun." Nelson Holt had a good impression of Locke. After all, they had the experience of teasing Phyllis together.
"Isn't this inconvenient?" Luo Ke declined, but his expression couldn't help but he couldn't help himself. Who has a grudge against Gold?
"Are police salaries so high?"
There will always be people who make themselves uncomfortable.
"Locke, you go buy it and I'll give you the money!"
Much help!
Don't underestimate Phyllis's net worth. After all, she comes from a noble family and has accumulated hundreds of years of accumulation. If you pull out a hair, it will be thicker than Roque's waist.
The guy who was asking for trouble looked ashen in the face.
"In such a large mining area, there should be undiscovered gold mines, right?" Rock wouldn't ask for Felice's money. For time travelers, if they want a gold mine, they still have to spend money to buy it?
"Don't dream!" Kevin was unyielding.
That being said, for ordinary people, searching for gold mines is really just like a dream.
After the Rand gold mine was discovered, countless people from all over the world poured into the Rand mining area. Each of them had a dream of finding gold mines. It is true that some people succeeded, but more people failed.
The sad thing is that people always only pay attention to the aura of success and not the desolation of failure.
