Reborn as a police officer in South Africa
590 Escape to a foreign country
Britain has always been known for its excessive tax burden. It not only has normal taxes such as commodity transaction tax and personal income tax, but also weird taxes such as war tax and head tax. The last rebellion in Natal was due to the Natal colonial government's head tax collection. Tax.
It was precisely because of the Natal rebellion that when Rock mentioned war tax, Ade immediately subconsciously opposed it.
"The war tax is not a poll tax. Those Africans don't have much money to begin with, and their average annual income is only three to five rands. To force them to pay the poll tax is to force them to rebel. We are levying a war tax on the property-owning class. Those who have average annual income are only three to five rands." Families with an annual income of more than 100 rand or household assets of more than 1000 rand. These families have high income and rich assets. Even if they charge more, they will not rebel." Roque is really stable, this knife Cutting accurately and hard.
"The middle class doesn't have much money, so it's better to go directly to large-scale enterprises, especially those trading enterprises that specialize in import and export." Ade said jokingly. According to this standard, it is estimated that only a few southern Africans would be eligible to pay taxes. Only Rockstar Christian and a few others.
"No, we can't collect it. If we ask big companies to collect war taxes, Congress won't agree." Roque said seriously, Nyasaland Agricultural Company and South African Company's public relations expenses of millions a year are not used to raise pigs.
Democracy sounds nice, but in reality everyone knows that there are financial backers behind the federal parliamentarians in Southern Africa. No matter how nice these financial sponsors are before they are elected, they will not serve the voters wholeheartedly after being elected. The financial sponsors He is the boss behind the congressman.
Relatively speaking, it is better to be a state legislator or a city councilor. After all, these legislators are at least from the state. If they go too far, someone will really smash the windows of his house at night.
"Why don't you agree? Only by maintaining a strong military force can the federal government better protect the interests of capitalists like you." Ade bluntly said that these large companies in southern Africa are actually richer than the federal government. Many of the federal government's expenditures are Necessary expenses cannot be avoided, but these large companies have countless ways to avoid taxes.
"No, the federal government maintains a strong military force to protect all southern Africans. Big businesses should not foot the bill." Roque firmly spoke for himself and refused to give in when it came to interests.
"Gungun, I get upset when I see you." Ade exclaimed. The capitalist's face was really ugly.
"No way, the prime minister can also curse people?" Roque was really surprised. He had known Ade for so long and he had never seen him lose his temper.
There are really no secrets about government agencies. In less than an hour, the entire Prime Minister's Office knew that Viscount Nyasaland had been kicked out of the office by Viscount Harewood. However, no one thought that Roque had fallen out of favor and was about to be thrown into the cold palace. On the contrary, this It fully proves that Roque's holy family is flourishing.
Even Ada knew about it at night.
"How does it feel to be kicked out of the office?" Ada's tone was full of envy. Alfred Milnado was a gentle person, but Rock was so angry that he yelled that Rock hadn't been dismissed yet. This kind of Many officials want to queue up to enjoy the benefits.
"It's not very good, so I came to you for comfort." Rock didn't take it to heart, let alone be complacent about being scolded, and he was not a masochist.
Ada lives in the castle that was once used by the Ministry of Finance. This castle has changed hands several times over the years. After Ada became the director of the State Administration of Taxation, she renovated the castle and then lived here with peace of mind. Miraculously.
The strange thing is that no one has criticized it yet.
Luo Ke has a high position and the power of the director of the State Administration of Taxation is not small. If it were anyone else, he would definitely have to avoid suspicion, but Ada would not need it.
"In which way?" Ada bit her spoon and winked a bit too openly.
"The Ministry of National Defense will not be able to pay its salary next month," Roque lamented in his heart. He probably had to sell his sex to solve the problem.
"How can a person like Derek Patience be qualified to be the Financial Secretary of the Department of Defense? If he were at Rand Bank, he would be a lobby manager at most." Ada immediately restrained herself, and should stop teasing men in moderation.
It is a tragedy to talk about federal government officials. Although Southern Africa has a civil service system like the United Kingdom, it is amazing that there are still illiterate officials in Southern Africa.
Derek Patience is definitely not illiterate, and he is also a top student at the University of Bristol. However, he was at the University of Bristol twenty years ago. He studied law, and he is indeed not very proficient in finance. His ability in this area is as good as
What Ada said is similar, maybe not as good as a graduate of Nyasaland University majoring in accounting.
It’s not impossible, it’s certain. The University of Bristol was founded in 1876. Twenty years ago, it was the University College of Bristol. It was only last year that it was renamed the current University of Bristol after merging with several other schools. It’s really better than hard work.
In terms of software level, the University of Bristol is really not as good as Nyasaland University.
"So what, Elvis can't even spell his own name correctly, he's still the Secretary of Education." Rock was also helpless. When the federal government was established, qualified officials were rare, like Derek Patience.
Those who have gone to college are high-quality talents.
As for Elvis, this guy has now become the laughingstock of the federal government. About three months ago, Elvis misspelled his name when signing a document, and then the document appeared in public.
The Ministry of Education issued a national official document.
Now Elvis has been forced to resign, but this incident has become a laughing stock of the federal government, and the image of federal officials has been greatly affected.
Adelaide's recent push to rejuvenate officials was stimulated by this incident. With the development of southern Africa, more and more highly educated young people are entering the federal government. These young people are energetic, enthusiastic and enterprising.
Relatively speaking, some officials left over from the previous colonial government are increasingly unable to keep up with the pace of development in southern Africa and are on the verge of being eliminated.
"Have you heard? Minister Smuts is going to work in London." Ada reported the good news.
"Really?" Rock was overjoyed.
This is indeed good news. Yang Smozi and Roque disliked each other when they first met. The Ministry of Education has always been a key surveillance unit of the Ministry of Justice. To put it bluntly, Roque has been eager to get rid of it.
Then it happened quickly, but it was a pity that it could not be eliminated. Now Yang Smozi is actually leaving. This is simply an unexpected surprise.
"Prime Minister Aisquith invited Minister Smuts to serve as cabinet adviser." Ada was very well informed, and Young Smuts was indeed influential in London.
In Rock's consciousness, Yang Smuts has always been a Boer. In fact, Yang Smuts is not. Although Yang Smuts' father is a Boer, Yang Smuts was born in Cape Town.
of pure Englishman.
Jan Smuts and Cecil Rhodes had a quarrelsome relationship. Later Jan Smuts accepted Paul Kruger's invitation and became the Minister of Justice of the Transvaal Republic at the age of 28. After the outbreak of the Boer War, Jan Smuts
Become a Boer coalition commander.
After the Boer War, Young Smuts went to London many times to secure loans. Southern African autonomy was also inseparable from Young Smuts' efforts. However, Young Smuts did not want southern Africa to be independent, but wanted to
Create a southern Africa with close ties to Britain.
In some ways, Yang Smooth and Rock had similar thoughts. Maybe they were the same kind of people, so they started to fight each other as soon as they met.
"It's a good position." Luo Ke agreed with both hands. Since we can't be friends, then don't stay together and avoid each other. It's better to stay far away.
"No matter how bad it is, it's better than staying in the Ministry of Education." Ada told the truth. It was really not easy for Yang Smozi to persist until now. If it were Roark, he would have left long ago.
In another time and space, when the federal government of Southern Africa was established, Yang Smuts served as Minister of Defense, Minister of Justice and many other important positions.
Due to Rock's involvement in this time and space, Yang Smozi went to the Ministry of Education.
If there was no comparison between the public education in Nyasaland and the Transvaal, then Yang Smuts' life would have been easier, but the public education in Nyasaland and the Transvaal was very good, and then Yang
Smuts was forced to sit on his hands and knees. No matter how hard he tried, the public education in other states in southern Africa was incomparable to Nyasaland Transvaal.
"There is nothing wrong with Shimozi's personal ability. There is a problem with the direction of his efforts. The direction is wrong. The more he does, the more mistakes he makes." Luo Ke is not pitiful. Yang Shimozi's mistake was in his treatment of the Chinese.
In terms of attitude, even though the Chinese are getting stronger and stronger now, Yang Smozi still cannot accept it. The reason why Orange is so stubborn has a lot to do with Yang Smozi.
"Then you have to be careful." Ada definitely maintained her stance with Rock. Yang Smuts went to London and was indeed capable of causing trouble for Rock.
"It's okay." Rock is as stable as a rock. Yang Smuts has connections in London. Rock is not alone in the government. If he wants to cause trouble for Rock, he must first get past Winston and Neville.
"What should I do next? Should I go to the Ministry of Education and become a minister?" Since Roque said it was okay, then Ada was okay, and her tone was as relaxed as if the federal government was their mom-and-pop shop.
"It depends on the Prime Minister's arrangements. If the Prime Minister can't find someone to take over, it doesn't matter." Roque doesn't care. The Ministry of Education really needs to be rectified. The fact that the director misspelled his own name is outrageous.
Under the leadership of Yang Shimozi, the work of the Ministry of Education was in a mess. This does not mean that Yang Shimozi was not capable. A good woman cannot make a meal without rice. Yang Shimozi had no one to use and there were too many people around him.
The old subordinates had to take care of them, so the Ministry of Education went from bad to worse.
If Roque were to be in charge of the Ministry of Education, among other things, most of the current officials in the Ministry of Education, Roque, would definitely have to be replaced. Wouldn’t the graduates of Nyasaland University be good?
