Reborn as a police officer in South Africa

The upper reaches of the Orange River have rapid currents and numerous tributaries. The reservoirs and hydropower stations to be built by the federal government are mainly concentrated in the upper reaches of the Orange River.

In the middle reaches, the Orange River is about six kilometers wide, with unstable flow, strong evaporation, and small water volume.

Downstream, the Orange River often dries up in winter, with no tributaries flowing in. There are many bridges on the river, making it unnavigable.

Ah, no, there are not many bridges on the Orange River now, and they can still be salvaged.

"The key is to reduce evaporation. Reservoirs are now being built upstream to store water in the rainy season and open sluices to release water in the dry season. The flow is basically guaranteed. The six-kilometer river is too wide. The annual evaporation in the middle and lower reaches is equivalent to the entire France.

We must find a way to solve this problem, otherwise there will still be no water available downstream in the dry season." Gardner's work in the upper reaches has come to an end, and he has now accepted the invitation of Bechuanaland State to serve as Bechuanaland State's Orange Governance Officer.

River's advisor.

"Oh my god, do we still have to take care of the downstream? That is the task of Whale Bay." Senior's head is as big as a bucket. The Orange River is 1,860 kilometers long, and Bechuanaland does not exceed one-sixth of it, and it is also Bechuanaland.

The dividing line between Channa, Kimberley and Orange is a tri-state condominium state.

"We are only responsible for the part within Bechuanaland, and other states are responsible for the rest." Lin Huaishan secretly rejoiced that this was all left to Bechuanaland. Bechuanaland really did not have that capability.

In the project to control the Orange River, all states in the entire basin are involved. Calculated, the part to be managed by Bechuanaland State does not exceed 120 kilometers, which greatly reduces the workload of the project.

"Even within Bechuanaland, we are severely short of funds. To complete this year's budget, we need at least 36 million rand, which is 36 million per year. To meet the requirements of the federal government, it will take at least three consecutive years." Tao Feng was embarrassed.

, Bechuanaland State’s fiscal balance is not large, and there is still a huge gap in federal funding.

"I have contacted Rand Bank and hope to issue bonds through Rand Bank. However, we cannot place all our hopes on bank bonds and must try every means to raise funds." Lin Huaishan is also in a dilemma. In fact, it is difficult to raise funds.

It's not difficult. There is the world's largest diamond mine in Bechuanaland. De Beers Unified Mining Company has been interested in developing it for a long time, but the conditions given are very harsh.

De Beers Consolidated Mining Company is also an industry under Stoudemire's name. It is headquartered in Kimberley and owns the largest diamond mine in Kimberley.

As a commercial company, De Beers Unified Mining Company is all based on profit, which is understandable.

Lin Huaishan also wants to strive for better conditions for Bechuanaland, which is normal.

The next day, Lin Huaishan went to Pretoria, hoping to obtain more funding, and at the same time, he also wanted to obtain more benefits for Bechuanaland through Stoudemire.

What makes Lin Huaishan helpless is that Xiaosi doesn't know about this at all.

This is also normal. Stoudemire, like Rock, has a lot of business under his name, and professional managers are basically responsible for it. Stoudemire cannot cover everything.

After learning about the situation, Stoudemire was also very embarrassed.

"Lin, it's not that De Beers Unified Mining Company doesn't want to offer better terms. It's just that the diamond market is limited and is now basically saturated. If diamonds from Bechuanaland are added, the price of diamonds will drop significantly.

This is something none of us want to see." Stoudemire said frankly that even if De Beers Unified Mining Company obtains the mining rights of the Bechuanaland diamond mine, it probably will not invest in development in the short term and will only use it as a reserve.

There is no doubt that the largest diamond company in the world is De Beers Unified Mining Company. The saying that a diamond is forever is itself hyped by De Beers Unified Mining Company. Before that, Europeans were the most

I like all kinds of colored gemstones, and diamonds are only available in the market. Colorless diamonds, no matter how pure they are, are basically ignored.

Colored diamonds such as blue diamonds and pink diamonds are rarely produced, and most diamonds have no color, that is, colorless diamonds.

In order to sell these colorless diamonds, De Beers Unified Mining Company took great pains to create the concept that diamonds are forever, so that diamonds can be sold at a high price. Otherwise, diamonds are just an ordinary industrial raw material.

Diamonds are actually diamonds. The magic of this thing is that when used in jewelry, they are called diamonds, and when used in the industrial field, they are called diamonds.

Of course there are differences, otherwise there would be no such thing as purity. This concept was also created by De Beers Unified Mining Company.

Regarding the true value of diamonds, when sold at Iteno counters, diamonds are based on carats.

At De Beers Unified Mining Company, the diamonds mined are measured in tons.

"Can't we, like Adan Company, appropriately limit the output of Elizabeth Oilfield for the sake of the profits of Najd Oil Company?" Lin Huaishan had no choice. In 1927, channels were king, and there was no diamond sales company in Bechuanaland.

Channels are useless even if they are mined.

This statement is also wrong. When ordinary industrial raw materials are sold, there is still a market.

Of course the value is certainly much less.

After listening to Lin Huaishan's words, Xiaosi looked at Rock with dissatisfaction.

The implication of this look is: Look at the good things you have done!

Roque was helpless. If it were not to appease the Najd royal family, Roque would not want to develop the Najd oil field.

There are many things that Rock can't do as he pleases. Although the Americans are not reliable, the idea of ​​"equal benefit sharing" is still reliable. If you have money, let's make it together. Southern Africa eats meat. The royal family of Najd at least makes people drink soup. Isn't the boss the best?

So good.

"Lord Rhodesia, if this is really embarrassing for you, can you increase investment in agriculture in Bechuanaland State? The Bechuanaland State Government will fully cooperate and give Rhodesia companies the maximum in terms of policy and taxation.

"Preferential offer" Lin Huaishan also has a backup plan. Agriculture is the economic backbone of Bechuanaland. If Xiaosi agrees, it can also benefit all Bechuanaland people.

Xiaosi didn't speak and seemed to be thinking hard.

Roque just smiled. Although Roque is also a shareholder of Rhodesia Company, and his shareholding ratio is second only to Stoudemire, he has no say in the specific operation of the company.

This is also the tacit understanding between Rock and Stoudemire. Since the development of Southern Africa, cross-shareholding is normal. The bottom line is not to interfere with each other and only get dividends. Now it looks pretty good. It can not only ensure the normal operation of the company, but also ensure the mutual trust between shareholders.

of intimacy.

"Okay, I will seriously consider your suggestion." Xiaosi didn't give a specific promise, but it would be useless if he did.

Again, capitalists are not philanthropists. Rock and others treat the entire southern Africa as their own business. Stoudemire does not have this awareness.

"Thank you very much, Lord Rhodesia. Bechuanaland will definitely not disappoint you." Lin Huaishan was full of gratitude. This is enough. Lin Huaishan is also the governor. Xiaosi will definitely give him the face he deserves.

Give.

After sending Lin Huaishan away, Stoudemire started complaining to Rock.

Although Southern Africa responded quickly, the outbreak of the economic crisis still had a certain impact on Southern Africa, especially the food industry.

After years of barbaric development, farms in southern Africa have reached a very high level. If there were not dozens of cows and hundreds of sheep on that farm, the farmer would be embarrassed to say hello to others when he went out.

Before the economic crisis broke out, agricultural products from southern Africa were sold all over the world. High-end products include Nyasaland beef and merino wool, and low-end products include canned fruits and vegetables. The output of wheat, rice, and corn is also very high.

Some agricultural products are exported.

After the economic crisis broke out, various countries introduced trade protection policies one after another, and food exports from southern Africa were greatly affected. Additional orders from the Ministry of National Defense alone could not make up for sales, and Stoudemire's factory was also in trouble.

"Other countries are trying every means to reduce costs. Only we are driving cheap African-American workers out of southern Africa in order to provide more jobs. Now, workers' salaries have increased, business costs have soared, and product competitiveness has dropped significantly. In this way,

If this continues, until the economic crisis is over, most of the companies will go bankrupt." Stoudemire is full of resentment. Now it is no longer a question of making money or not, but whether the company can survive.

"Cecil, don't complain. Our business is having difficulties, and so are others. Just hold on." Roque still said that compared with Europe and the United States, Southern Africa is already doing very well.

The Times recently reported that most countries around the world, including the United Kingdom and the United States, are in trouble. In the United States, homeless people on the streets of New York are even waiting in groups near restaurants, waiting for restaurants to dump leftovers. Many of them are in economic crisis.

The social elite before the outbreak.

This is the power of public opinion. The economic crisis has certainly had some impact on southern Africa, but after the Times reported it, readers immediately felt much better.

At least there are basically no homeless people on the streets of southern African cities.

The homeless people in southern Africa are all in shelters. The shelters are responsible for arranging jobs for those who are able to work. Those who are unable to work are sent to orphanages. The conditions in the orphanages are not to mention how good they are. At least they can have enough food and clothing.

.

When it comes to having enough food and clothing, Southern Africa has great advantages.

As mentioned above, agriculture in southern Africa is developed, and the price of agricultural products is ridiculously cheap. One pound of chicken costs one shilling in London, but only one quarter in southern Africa.

The same goes for the climate. It sometimes snows in Cape Town. The coldest days in Nyasaland rarely fall below 10 degrees Celsius. It’s hard to freeze to death.

Therefore, when compared with Europe and the United States, the happiness of Southern Africans immediately exploded. What about the old colonial countries in Europe and the United States? In the current economic crisis, Southern Africa's advantages have become more and more obvious.

This is also evident in the Immigration Bureau. Recently, the Immigration Bureau has received thousands of applications every day. Not only the Old World, many Americans also choose to immigrate to Southern Africa.
