Reborn as a police officer in South Africa

The reason for the inability to start was not that the truck was malfunctioning, but that the truck driver accidentally injured his jaw when starting the engine and needed to be sent to the hospital for treatment.

When a car's engine is started, the crankshaft needs to reach a certain speed in order to start the engine smoothly.

The engines of this period had a rotatable interface on the outside. When starting, the driver had to use an external crank to shake the crankshaft to bring it up to operating speed.

Therefore, drivers during this period were manual laborers. This was not because they were women, but because women were too weak to start the engine. Even for men, it usually took two people to work together to start the engine smoothly.

Rock has never driven a car yet, and he didn't know that the starting method of a car is so primitive, so Rock immediately assigned Rudolf Diesel a task to change the starting method of the engine and replace manpower with electricity.

The motor drives the engine to start.

In this way, the driver only needs to sit in the cab and turn the key, and the engine will start smoothly.

"I'm afraid it's difficult. Today's motors are too big and it's difficult to apply them to engines." Rudolf Diesel is very embarrassed. He studies diesel engines, not electric motors. Now it's very complicated to study the whole vehicle.

There is really no ability to start from scratch in a new field.

"I didn't tell you to do the research on your own. If you don't know how, you can go find someone who does." Rock wasn't worried that no one would. If that didn't work, Rock sent someone to find Nikola Tesla. That person was

A master of electronic games.

Adding an electric motor to a car will definitely increase the cost of the car, which may not be necessary in the eyes of many people, but Rock knows the value of the motor, so even if it increases the cost, Rock will increase the cost, not only for the sake of truck drivers, but also for the sake of truck drivers.

But for the technology in this area and the concept of never being satisfied.

Those who have money to buy a car don't care about the cost of the car.

"Lord, we don't need to study everything ourselves." Rudolf Diesel had a different opinion. Perhaps in Rudolf Diesel's view, Nyasaland is mechanically capable of achieving this level.

It's almost the ultimate, and it's impossible to ask for more.

"Rudolf, just do what you should do." Roque didn't want to explain to Rudolf Diesel. It was difficult to explain these things to him as a technical geek. Just like the Chinese in Nyasaland, Roque never

Instead of telling them why they have to line up to eat, and that queuing has nothing to do with morality or quality, Rock gradually regulates the behavior of the Chinese with mandatory regulations.

This is not a generalization. For the Chinese who have grown up, Rock is really too lazy to explain. For those Chinese who are receiving education in schools, Rock is still very patient.

Of course, Rock will not overemphasize the role of morality and quality. Schools in Nyasaland are not meant to cultivate polite Taoist gentlemen. Taoist gentlemen these days are at a disadvantage. Rock hopes that the next generation of Chinese will have a strong pioneering spirit.

, so that Nyasaland can be competitive internationally.

Looking back, Rock went to the shipyard on the shores of Lake Nyasa.

While shipyards are now producing marine police ships, they are also beginning to imitate cargo ships.

Last month, the shipyard tried to produce a 3,000-ton inland waterway freighter. When Rock came to the shipyard, the shipyard was replicating a 5,000-ton ocean-going freighter.

"Our current demand for cargo ships is not large, and the existing immigration ships are sufficient. We are trying to use diesel engines on ocean-going ships. If we can succeed, then we can take orders from abroad. In fact, the Germans have already

We contacted and hoped to purchase a marine police ship with marine police equipment, but we did not agree. If we sell the marine police ship to the Germans, it may have an impact on our interests in the North Sea." Duncan's expression was extremely proud. If he wanted to,

Shipyards can earn foreign exchange now.

Well, in fact, foreign exchange is not attractive to Nyasaland at all. The currency with the strongest purchasing power in the world is the pound. Compared with the pound, the German mark is a level lower in terms of purchasing power and stability, so Duncan has a lower purchasing power for the Germans.

Basically no interest in ordering.

"It is right not to sell. We are not short of money now. The shipyard mainly needs to meet our own needs first." Roque also does not agree to sell the maritime police ships. The North Sea is currently owned by Nyasaland and Tanganyika.

, the Germans purchase marine police ships that can be used in Tanganyika, and Rock will not cause trouble for himself.

Although it seems now that the North Sea's fishery resources are still abundant and Nyasaland's fishermen cannot commit cross-border fishing, no one can say for sure what will happen in the future. With the increase in Nyasaland's population, the scale of the North Sea's fisheries will definitely increase.

Rock and Stoudemire set up a canning factory on the edge of the North Sea, specializing in the production of canned fish and meat for sale. If Rock sells the marine police boat to the Germans, Stoudemire may not agree to it either.

In the North Sea, the Germans currently have only one patrol boat of less than 100 tons, equipped with two Maxim heavy machine guns, which is not enough in front of the 300-ton marine police ship. The Nyasaland marine police ship

To put it bluntly, it was to deal with the Germans. Selling the ship to the Germans was tantamount to subsidizing the enemy.

Germany is not Nyasaland's enemy yet. Even against the Congo Free State and the Belgian Congo, Nyasaland and Tanganyika are still cooperating. The future is hard to say. Others don't know. Rock knows it very well.

There were only about ten years left before the outbreak of World War I.

"Our research on marine police ships has basically stopped. At present, marine police ships of this level have basically no rivals in Africa, so the shipyard will put all its resources on ocean-going cargo ships. I hope our

Ocean freighters can be sold to Europe, and then we can take a breather." Duncan was also under great pressure, and Rock was like Nan Batian, waving his whip to push officials like Duncan to the ground.

.

Of course, the effect is also very obvious. The development of Nyasaland is obvious to all. It has only taken less than two years. If Nyasaland is given 20 years, what kind of development can Nyasaland become?

Rock is looking forward to it very much.

"Our immigration has now reached a bottleneck period. Recently, the Qing Dynasty has tightened its control on immigration. Fewer and fewer immigrants can successfully arrive in Nyasaland. Basically, the immigration boats that arrived in Nyasaland last month

If the number is not full, there may be fewer and fewer immigrants in the future. If we want to obtain more human resources, we have to find other ways." Duncan is the head of Nyasaland Agricultural Company and is facing many difficulties now.

.

A population of 300,000 sounds like a lot, but it is still very inconspicuous spread across the entire territory of Nyasaland. After acquiring the Zambezi River Basin and the North Sea coast, Nyasala’s area has exceeded 400,000 square kilometers. One square kilometer

Kilometers can't even meet a single person, and there's still a long way to go to meet Rock's requirements.

In Rock's vision, Nyasaland must have at least 20 million people to ensure Nyasaland's future development.

The 20 million people here must be a long-term plan. Before World War I, according to Rock's vision, at least three to five million people must immigrate from the Qing Dynasty. Compared with the Qing Dynasty's population of 450 million, this requirement is actually not

Not too high.

In fact, it's quite a lot. Compared to 450 million, 4.5 million is one percent. No country will just watch the loss of such a large population.

However, what Roque did not expect was that the Qing Dynasty had already noticed this problem when the total population of Nyasaland was only 300,000.

The Qing's response was much faster than Rock expected.

"Let Liang Dingxin think of a way to cooperate with the smugglers and pirates in East Asia. No matter what, the population of Nyasaland must reach at least 1 million people in the next two years, otherwise neither industry nor agriculture will be possible.

Get up." Rock has no choice. Whether it is to develop industry or agriculture, a massive population is needed. Just look at Rhodesia now and you will know the importance of population.

Stoudemire had previously proposed to Roque that he hoped that Roque would allow some Chinese to go to Rhodesia.

Of course, Roque would not refuse such a request, so although Nyasaland's own human resources were insufficient, Roque sent more than 5,000 people to Rhodesia, most of whom were concentrated in Rhodesia.

In the Luangwa River Basin, they have built five large-scale colonial settlements near the Luangwa River Basin, have reclaimed nearly 100,000 acres of land, and transformed nearly 500,000 acres of mountains and grasslands into pastures suitable for grazing.

This efficiency is far higher than that of whites and Africans in Rhodesia. Compared with the Chinese, the farming technology of whites and Africans is really inferior. When Xiaosi was developing Rhodesia, he was very concerned about the swamps in the territory.

Mountains and hills are generally abandoned, and only those lands suitable for pasture are developed.

The Chinese are not so picky. Whether it is mountains, hills or swamps, in the hands of the Chinese, basically they can be developed into fertile land. This does not seem obvious enough now, because there is so much land suitable for reclamation, and the Chinese do not need to gnaw on those hard bones.

, when the land suitable for development is exhausted, the Chinese will move to the mountains, hills and swamps, just like what is happening around Little Rock now.

When Rock first acquired Nyasaland, there was basically no trace of development in Little Rock. There were only a few primitive tribes of African natives who were practicing slash-and-burn farming near Little Rock.

When the agricultural company first developed Little Rock, it first focused on the land that was easy to cultivate. After the land that was easy to cultivate was exhausted, the agricultural company began to organize manpower to march into the mountains and hills.

It has only been two years now, and the surrounding areas of Little Rock are already covered with fertile farmland. The mountains and hills that were originally considered unsuitable for development are now vast plains.

This kind of efficiency is something that white people and Africans don’t even have to think about.
