Reborn as a police officer in South Africa
Chapter 2518 It’s good if you don’t lose money
Kurchi lied, he didn't stay in the hotel honestly.
However, it is not a heinous thing to be a guest on a farm. The Transvaal State Government has been preparing to build the Transvaal into a tourist and cultural holy land in recent years, and it is still very tolerant to tourists.
"I just want to understand the real situation of farms in southern Africa. This is part of my job. I have always been curious about farms in southern Africa. I also have a farm in France with a vineyard-" Kurci did not panic.
Being busy, R10,000 is not that easy to earn.
"I don't care what your job is, don't cause trouble on my territory, I will always keep an eye on you." The action leader leading the team is also patient, so just take your time.
Neither of them was in a hurry, but Stewart was a little regretful that his ten thousand rand was gone.
Stewart's farm is very large, about 1,500 acres, or about 9,000 acres when converted into acres.
After sending away the staff in Brad's office, Stewart had to continue to entertain Kurci, after all, he had received money from Petrovich.
"Are you farmers so vigilant?" Kurtz was very interested in Stewart.
Southern Africa's industry is very developed, and agriculture is the foundation for ensuring national stability.
In the past few years of the World War, southern Africa has become the rear area of the entire Allied camp, and its equally developed agriculture has played an important role.
Russia's agriculture is also very strong and it is Europe's largest grain exporter. Compared with southern Africa, it is not very developed.
The main agricultural products exported by Russia are cereals, while the main agricultural products exported by southern Africa are meat, poultry eggs, and deeply processed agricultural products, which are different from Russia.
"No, it's only for specific groups of people." Stewart was not embarrassed. Looking at Kurtz's eyes, it felt like the word "bad guy" was clearly written on his face.
The vast majority of people in southern Africa have been boy scouts since childhood and have received military training since childhood.
Stewart fought in World War I and is still a member of the Hunters' Guild.
The Hunters Association is a semi-official organization similar to a militia. It is very large, with millions of members in southern Africa.
Since they were hunters, they must have weapons. Stewart and his sons all wore pistols clearly visible on their waists. Stewart's had a long "python" barrel, which was said to be powerful enough to kill an elephant.
"Only in remote suburbs far away from the city, do you have the opportunity to use these weapons? Is it necessary to carry them with you?" Kurchi is very happy. The popularity of guns is so high, which is more beneficial to Kurchi.
The Communist International does things in an eclectic way. To put it bluntly, it means unscrupulous means. If the goal cannot be achieved through peaceful means, then violence must be used.
Southern Africa does not ban guns and focuses on cultivating the martial spirit of its citizens. This is a double-edged sword and may cause big problems.
In recent years, the federal government of Southern Africa has also become aware of this problem and has gradually begun to shrink its attitude towards guns.
There are historical reasons why guns are not banned in southern Africa.
After the Second Boer War, the land area of southern Africa had reached more than one million square kilometers, but the population was only more than 700,000. The standard land was vast and sparsely populated. At that time, the size of a farm could reach tens of thousands of acres, and the beasts
There are hundreds of times more people than there are people. If there are no weapons, if an unexpected incident occurs, when the police arrive, the only thing that can be done is to collect the bodies.
Maybe even the body can't be found.
When Rock took over Nyasaland, in the wild environment, no matter whether it was a human or a beast, the corpse could be completely decomposed overnight.
The situation in southern Africa is now much better than it was a few decades ago. The negative effects of the proliferation of guns are beginning to appear. In big cities like Pretoria and Johannesburg, crime incidents caused by the proliferation of guns are increasing year by year.
, the federal government is looking for ways to control guns.
This matter cannot be taken too hastily. The martial spirit of the people has been cultivated for decades. If you ask them to hand over their guns, one careless operation will cause them to explode on the spot.
Not to mention others, some members of the Hunter Association have shooting skills that are as good as those of precision shooters in the military. If they turn to crime, they will definitely cause greater harm.
So we can only do it step by step.
Federal governments at all levels have now completed the registration of firearms. The next step is to centralize and manage all firearms. The federal government has also spent money to recycle firearms. A pistol that sold for 20 rand twenty years ago
, the current recycling price is R25.
Governments at all levels of the federal government have spent nearly R1 billion on firearm recycling alone.
Calculated at 25 rand a bottle, 1 billion rand is almost 40 million rand.
This only accounts for one-tenth of the total privately owned firearms in southern Africa.
In other words, the total number of privately owned guns in southern Africa is about 400 million.
In 1944, Southern Africa had a population of 210 million, with almost two guns per person.
One long and one short, standard configuration.
"This is to warn some people not to act rashly!" Stewart smiled.
The pickup truck parked on the lawn in front of Stewart's house, a two-story traditional brick and wood building.
It is not accurate to say that the mixture of bricks and wood is correct, it should be a mixture of stone and wood.
The foundation of the house is made of stones, and the buildings on the ground are basically wooden structures. There are fewer and fewer such houses now. Many farmers' newly built houses are made of stronger reinforced concrete.
Stewart's family has a large population and several houses. According to southern African standards, in a few decades this place may become a small town.
Of course, it is also possible that there will be fewer and fewer people. After all, the new generation of southern Africans prefer to live in cities.
Stewart's four sons all have jobs, two are in the gold mines, one is in the municipal government, and one is a police officer. They are all married and have families.
After Curchi learned the specific situation, he immediately targeted his second son Gascoll, who worked in the West Rand gold mine.
"There's nothing to say about the work in the gold mine. It's too boring. Every day I dig rocks, pull rocks, and crush rocks. All the work is dealing with rocks." Gascoll smiled. He was not strong.
On the contrary, it is a bit thin and not quite the same as the miners in Kurci's impression.
The miners in Kurci's impression are still those who work in a dark environment, risking countless dangers such as gas leakage, water seepage, collapse, etc., and work precariously.
Gascoll's job is definitely not like that. He wears a plaid shirt, jeans, his nails are neatly trimmed, and his fingers are white and slender. He doesn't look like a miner at all.
"You don't look like a miner—" Kurtz said honestly.
"What does it look like? A pianist?" Gascoll smiled brightly, and Curchi noticed that there really was a piano in Stewart's living room.
piano!
This thing should never appear in a miner's home.
"It looks like your income is very good." Kurtci praised.
Stewart's home not only has a piano, TV, refrigerator, player and other household appliances, but the air conditioner is not unaffordable, but unusable. It's neither hot nor cold here in Johannesburg, even in the hottest part of summer.
How much to turn on the air conditioner.
"This is not my home. My home is in Ziwei City. Today is the weekend, so my brothers and I are here." Gascoll has long been used to it.
Only then did Kurchi realize that Stewart's farm had 1,500 acres. According to the farm price in Johannesburg, if it were sold, it would be - 15 million rand!
With 15 million rand, he would be a real rich man in any country.
Kurci suddenly felt a little tricky.
How to convince a rich man to give up his vast wealth and follow him to rebel?
Under normal circumstances, Kurtz should beg Stewart to sponsor him a sum of money.
This makes people very helpless.
In Europe, Kurtz's work target was the proletariat.
In southern Africa, all the proletarians in the traditional sense are actually very rich.
No wonder before departure, Petrovich reminded Kurci that they should focus on those foreign workers.
Curtsch immediately changed gears and asked Gascoll to learn more about the West Rand gold mines.
"There are no foreign workers in the mine, they are all southern Africans. Those foreign workers are a bit stupid and can't even learn to repair machines." Gascoll finally showed a sad look on his face. The foreign workers are indeed paid low, but unfortunately they are no longer suitable.
Gold mine now.
In the Rand mining area, there were approximately 200,000 foreign workers at its peak.
Now there is very little left.
It’s not that mine owners don’t want to reduce costs, but with the increasing use of machinery, foreign workers with low educational levels are no longer suitable for today’s gold mines, and mining has now become a high-tech industry.
Understanding this, Kurci did not waste any more time on the farm and immediately returned to Ziwei City with Petrovich.
After decades of development, Ziwei City is now not what it used to be. It is home to Ziwei Public School and Johannesburg Medical College, as well as Locke School, which is not well-known but may be more powerful than Ziwei Public School.
Ziweicheng has long become one of the cities with the highest educational level in southern Africa.
"This is the situation. Farmers in southern Africa may be the most stubborn group in the world. Their loyalty to Lord Locke is unshakable. I can't think of any way to persuade them to invest in our cause-" Petrovich said truthfully
To be honest, he has made countless attempts in southern Africa over the years, but unfortunately nothing has been achieved.
Nothing accomplished here simply refers to the task given to Petrovich by the Comintern.
In terms of life, Petrovic has a small company in Cape Town, which specializes in exporting agricultural products to Europe. The business is doing well, so Petrovic is not a proletarian, at least he is a middle class.
"Wait a minute, you just said Lord Locke -" Kurti seemed to vaguely grasp something.
"Yes, I said it - what do you mean?" Petrovich was shocked. Why on earth are you going to assassinate Roark?
You can die if you want, you can do it yourself, don't bother me too much.
"You're overthinking. Do you think I'm an idiot?" Kurtchi was not angry. He was not crazy. Isn't it a good life?
"Then what do you mean?" Petrovich felt relieved.
Just don't want to assassinate Rock.
There are many people in the world who want to assassinate Rock. Over the years, Rock has been assassinated not a hundred times but ninety times. Most of them failed in the preparation stage.
In other words, it was killed by the security department before it could be implemented.
"Lord Locke must be over sixty years old this year -" Kurtci thought thoughtfully, time may be Locke's only weakness.
In fact, this is not absolute. For a politician, under normal circumstances, the prime of life is over 60 years old.
Guys like Roark and Winston who stand out at a young age are rare in the political arena.
Rock can still work for another twenty years if he wants.
Until the day when I can't do anything anymore.
"Yes, but if you want to wait until Lord Locke retires, then I'm afraid you will be disappointed. Public information shows that Lord Locke's physical condition may be better than the rest of us -" Petrovich sighed.
Rock, who is in his sixties, can still run five kilometers, and his results are very good for this age group.
Petrovich has neglected to exercise for a long time and is unlikely to be able to walk, let alone run five kilometers.
Kurci's situation wasn't much better.
"Okay, let's go to the Johannesburg Textile Group and see if we can find an opportunity." Kurchi didn't give up. Since the farmer brothers couldn't do it, let's try the worker brothers.
Textile companies are undoubtedly labor-intensive enterprises.
Southern Africa is now the Allied rear area. Not only southern Africa, but also the clothing of the British and French troops, most of which are also provided by the Johannesburg Textile Group. Now the Johannesburg Textile Group has hundreds of thousands of workers, second only to Favalte Steel.
Favart not only produces steel, but is also involved in mining, with a much larger number of workers.
However, Kurtz did not dare to go to Favart, not because there was no temptation, but because Henry had a notorious reputation. Kurtz was worried that if he went to Favart, he would die in a certain mine for no apparent reason.
Relatively speaking, the Johannesburg Textile Group is much safer. After all, Phyllis, the first lady, is also the first philanthropist in southern Africa and may even be the world. She should not be as ruthless as Henry.
Because of the need to protect the environment, the Johannesburg Textile Group moved to Orange in the early years. It is not far from Ziwei City, about 100 kilometers away.
With a distance of 100 kilometers, there is no need to take a train, and it takes two hours to arrive by car. Kurchi has begun to get used to the convenient transportation in southern Africa.
A large enterprise with more than 100,000 people, plus the families of these people, is enough to form a medium-sized city. The city where the textile group is located is now called Angel City, because Phyllis is like an angel and leaves almost all profits to the textile group.
, which completely subverted Kurci's three views.
Is it possible to set up a business or a factory without making a profit?
Really.
That's the case with Phyllis. People don't look down on the hard-earned money earned by the textile group. The money earned by Itno is just pocket money for Phyllis.
"How much profit does the Johannesburg Textile Group make each year?" Kurci had a vague view.
Petrovich's expression was complicated and his mood was even more complicated.
Who would have thought that for a company with more than 100,000 employees, its annual profit would be zero!
It’s good if you don’t lose money.
