Reborn as a police officer in South Africa

All the berths at the Saint-Roch Pier have been used, and panicked people boarded the ship under the guidance of the sailors of the Saint-Roch Squadron.

Each person boarding the ship is only allowed to carry one three-day special attack backpack with him, and the weight is not allowed to exceed 10 kilograms.

Backpacks were on sale at the pier for five rand each, which was much more expensive than usual, but no one questioned it at this time.

The French were still very wealthy, and those who could afford to come to Saint-Roch at this time were mostly wealthy.

Ten kilograms, for many people, is not enough to fill with gold, so the exchange point at the pier is crowded with people.

Gold is too heavy.

You can convert gold into rands, which makes it much lighter.

Since the Great Depression, the rand-to-gold ratio has remained stable at around one rand to one gram of gold.

Now it has soared to the point where one rand can be exchanged for 2.5 grams of gold, which still makes many people grateful.

Oliver from Port Elizabeth has handled an unknown amount of gold in the past few days.

There were too many people exchanging gold. At first, the exchange was done at the Rand Bank. Later, there were too many people exchanging gold, so the location was changed to the service hall of the Port Building. Later, the exchange point was directly located in the square in front of the Port Building.

Two armored vehicles are responsible for delivering the exchanged gold to the supply ship "Drakens"

No, it should be called the "Drakens" aircraft carrier now.

Since Germany broke through the Ardennes Forest, the gold sent to the "Drakens" has exceeded 380 tons.

Now you know how rich the French are, it’s only been less than half a month.

It is said that France currently stores nearly 2,500 tons of gold in an underground vault in Paris.

This gold is not only the property of the French government, but also includes gold temporarily stored in France by Poland, Belgium and other countries.

The French should have a headache about this gold.

I have a headache as to how to transport all this gold away before the German army captures Paris.

"It's 12.5 kilograms in total, let me calculate how many grams it is." Oliver was not very good at mathematics and had to use a pen to write out calculation formulas. The wealthy businessman, who was bleeding from his heart, couldn't bear it.

"A total of 12,500 grams, according to the current ratio, can be exchanged for 5,000 rand." Such a simple conversion made the wealthy businessman open his mouth.

Oliver didn't look up and calculated carefully.

You can't just say how much you say, if it's wrong, whose fault is it?

The wealthy businessman with the Mediterranean hairstyle is really heartbroken.

Gouri's umbrella can only be exchanged for gold. If it is gold jewelry inlaid with gems, not only will the gems not be counted, but the scale will also have to be removed. It is really not human.

Now think about it, the stupid De Beers company is even more deceitful. When selling diamonds, they advertise that diamonds are eternal and one stone will be passed down forever. However, when it comes to Umbrella, it is not even as good as a stone. Diamonds bought for hundreds or thousands of dollars are worthless.

If you can't get it off, how happy you were when you bought the diamond, but how uncomfortable it is now.

"You're right, you're so good at math, no wonder you can make so much money." Oliver counted twice and it was indeed 5,000.

The wealthy businessman watched as Oliver poured 12.5 kilograms of gold nuggets and jewelry into the box behind him.

The box is almost full, with large and small gold bars, all kinds of exquisite jewelry, various decorations made of gold, tableware, and candlesticks.

The navy lieutenant next to him noticed that the box was full, locked the box and put a seal on it. Two burly men took a deep breath while striding on horseback, lifted the box tremblingly, and placed it on the trolley next to it.

The trolley was sent to the waiting armored vehicle. There were already more than a dozen boxes on the armored vehicle. The chassis was almost pressing on the tires, and the tires were half deflated.

"Okay, let's go!"

The armored vehicle let out a heavy roar, emitted a large amount of black smoke from its exhaust pipe, and drove toward the dock while panting heavily.

The ship waiting at the dock has been replaced by the heavy cruiser "Saint Roch". The "Drakens" can actually be loaded, but you can't put all your eggs in the same basket.

The wealthy businessman watched the armored vehicle leave and couldn't help but have red eyes.

The accumulation of several generations will be greatly damaged not to mention being dissipated in one day.

At this time, an angry voice suddenly came from the side.

"This is fucking gold-plated, you are so damn poor!"

The wealthy businessman looked over at the sound and saw an officer of the Saint-Roch squadron angrily scolding a Frenchman.

"Sir, I don't know. This is what my grandfather left to me." The exposed guy was still quibbling.

The second lieutenant said nothing and raised his hand to wave. Immediately, two mercenaries from the Umbrella Company came over and directly took away the guy who was trying to fish in troubled waters.

The sorrow in the heart of the wealthy businessman immediately decreased a lot.

This guy is going to be unlucky. Not only will he lose the right to board the ship, but he will also be kicked out of Saint Roch. A tragic fate awaits him.

Southern Africa has not yet joined the war, so the Germans will probably not attack Saint Roch. If they stay in Saint Roch, they can at least temporarily obtain Saint Roch's asylum.

That's how people are.

When you are sad because you don't have shoes, if there is someone next to you who doesn't even have feet, you will feel much better.

When the entire box of gold was loaded onto the "Saint Roch" heavy cruiser, at the berth next to the "Saint Roch" heavy cruiser, the last group of southern Africans stranded in Saint Roch were lining up to board the ship from the Walvis Bay Ocean Shipping Company.

Cruise ship "Herero".

Note that this is a cruise ship, not a cruise ship.

In terms of comfort level alone, the comfort level of a cruise ship is definitely much greater than that of a cruise ship.

"Cruise ships" are designed purely for fun, with large rooms and good facilities, first-class service attitude, and rich entertainment facilities. Traveling on a cruise ship and escaping are similar to traveling.

Cruise ships are worse. As you can tell from the name, cruise ships mix passengers and cargo, so the level of comfort is naturally greatly reduced.

Next to the "Herero" is the "Moby Dick" cruise ship from the Walvis Bay Company. French and Belgians who want to leave France can board the "Moby Dick" to escape after paying a fee of 150 rand.

France.

150 rand is just the cost from St. Roch to Dover, UK. If you want to go to southern Africa, you have to buy another ticket.

Southern Africans leaving San Roque on the Herero have all their expenses paid by the Southern African federal government, and they sail directly to the Bay of Whales.

This makes many people dissatisfied.

We paid money, and it was much higher than usual, and could only take a cruise to Dover.

So many southern Africans can go directly from San Roque to Walvis Bay without spending a penny. Why?

Louis from Paris raised this question to the sailors who were maintaining order.

"Why? Because they are southern Africans!" The sailor's answer made Louis even more dissatisfied.

Those who boarded the Herero carried large and small bags of luggage with them, apparently without restrictions on size or weight.

Some people go too far, not only carrying large and small bags, but also other things. Louis noticed that a southern African man was actually carrying a children's bicycle when he walked up the gangway.

Even children's bicycles can leave San Roque on the Herero.

Louis was even more jealous of his doting father and the ignorant little girl in a white dress.

For the French, leaving Saint-Roch is an escape.

For southern Africans, leaving Saint-Roch is a spring outing.

"I can give more money, any amount, to get me and my family on that ship?" Louis was wealthy, and his three-day raid backpack was filled with rands and expensive jewelry.

The French are not stupid either. At the same value, gold is definitely heavier than the rand. Jewelry is different and has a high added value.

France, like the United Kingdom, has colonized the world for hundreds of years. Most of the French people's ancestors participated in overseas colonization, and their family background is quite rich.

"Sorry, only people from southern Africa are eligible to board the Herero." The sailor explained seriously that this was indeed unfair to the French, but when had the world ever been fair?

When the French, armed with Bibles and sharp swords, conquered the natives in their overseas colonies, was it fair to the natives in those overseas colonies?

When France was victorious and captured Annan on the negotiating table, thus being able to form the French Indochina Federation, was it fair to the Annamites?

Was it fair to the Czechoslovaks and Poles when the French stayed behind the strong Maginot Line and watched Germany annex Czechoslovakia and Poland?

Now it’s fair to say

What did you do early?

"I can give you money, a lot of money." Louis took out a wad of rands and waved them wildly in front of the sailors, as if he was crazy.

Snapped!

The sailor suddenly slapped Louis on the hand.

Rands suddenly flew everywhere.

"Pay attention to your behavior, sir. If you continue like this, I will cancel your qualification to board the ship." The sailor yelled sternly, and the bayonet on the Nyasaland rifle in his hand reflected a faint cold light.

Louis was stunned for a moment, and his first reaction was not to defend himself, but to pick up money everywhere.

He was still wailing: "This money is all mine, it's all mine. If you pick it off, you have to give it back to me."

No one picked it up.

Both those who had already boarded the ship and those who were boarding the ship were looking at the scene in front of them with numb expressions.

Louis used to be a banker in Paris, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to hand over so much money.

Bankers are undoubtedly members of the upper class in France, but now faced with the threat of war, their treatment is still not as good as that of ordinary people in southern Africa.

Who can you blame?

Blame the unreasonable sailors?

The sailors are southern African sailors and have no obligation to protect the French.

Blame the Southern African federal government?

The federal government of Southern Africa also has no obligation to protect the French. Under the current situation, it is already good that the federal government of Southern Africa is willing to lend a helping hand to ordinary French people. Look at the British government and then the French government. It is really not surprising.

Southern African federal governments treat it differently.

Then we can only blame the French government for its inaction.

But this is not just a day or two. The French government has always been like this, and the key is that the French president is elected by the French people with one vote. Therefore, if someone really needs to be held responsible for the current situation in France, then the French need to collectively take responsibility for it.
