The 550 Chinese policemen, the oldest of whom was not more than 25 years old and the youngest of whom were not less than 20 years old, had also undergone at least three months of basic training in the Qing Kingdom before arriving in Cape Town, which included basic formation, language, shooting, fighting, assassination, horsemanship, etc., and the Cape Town Police Department would not have been able to bring them to Cape so easily if it were not for the war that had just broken out in the Qing Kingdom.

After all, for the Hua Yong, the Qing State was their mother country, and the British were the main force of the Eight-Nation Alliance's invasion of China.

Relatively speaking, there is no problem in sending the Chinese soldiers to the Cape to serve as police officers, and Roque and the Chinese police officers who arrived in Cape Town in advance have proved with their abilities that the Chinese police are worthy of being trusted, and the Chinese police officers are very good compared to the Indian police officers, and even the British police officers are not inferior.

Well, there is a lot of subjectivity to this judgment, in fact, the Chinese police fared far better than the British police in Cape Town, but it was not easy to get the British to accept this.

All in all, in the Cape Town Police Service, as the status of Chinese police officers becomes more and more important, in the future, the Cape Town Police Service will hire more Chinese police officers.

In the police quarters, Roque was warmly welcomed by the new officers, unlike the previous batch of ordinary Hua Yong newcomers, this group of police officers, six of them had previously served as corporals in the Hua Yong battalion, and after coming to Cape Town, six corporals started all over again, but because of Roque's presence, it would be easier for them to be promoted.

As he leaves the police quarters, Roque takes with him a former Huayong Camp interpreter named Feng Fu, who used to work at the Qing Customs and can speak English and simple French, and Roque wants to bring Feng Fu back to Oak Town to be a teacher for the Chinese children in Oak Town.

Speaking of which, the IQ of the Chinese is indeed very high, there are more and more Chinese children in Oak Town, according to Anton and Li De, the half-grown children can already start working, but Roque disagrees, in Roque's view, no matter what work those Chinese children want to do in the future, they must learn as much knowledge as possible, at least the language must be passed, and they can communicate directly with the Boers and the British, so that it is more conducive to the integration of the Chinese into the Cape.

Suffering from the lack of Chinese teachers in Oak Town, Roque had to arrange for the children to study with the teachers in the refugee camp, and Roque did not expect the children to learn much knowledge, to be familiar with those white children with red eyebrows and green eyes for a period of time, not to be inferior, not to be intimidated, and to be able to socialize on an equal footing.

The reality is better than Roque imagined, for some time, the Chinese children are not only familiar with their white teachers and white classmates, but also the level of English and Dutch has improved by leaps and bounds, and they are now able to communicate with their classmates by leaps and bounds, although the communication is not smooth enough, but it is a world of difference compared to before, and many children can even teach their parents English and Dutch after returning home from school, which is a surprising start.

"I have prepared classrooms and dormitories for you, don't be pressured, do your best, mainly teach those children to learn English, but don't forget Chinese, at least let them be able to read, write, and understand some of the Four Books and Five Classics, the relevant teaching aids are ready, you can stay with peace of mind, I will pay you a salary of ten pounds a month, and you can also bring your family to Cape Town." On the way back to Oak Town, Roque told Feng Fu in detail.

"Master Luo, do you want to teach text?" Hearing that there was a salary of ten pounds, Feng Fu was both happy and worried, and he didn't quite understand Roque's positioning for the children.

Text!

Luo Ke thought about it for a long time before he understood what Feng Fu was talking about.

"No, no, no, if you don't learn the system of literature, these children will not return to the Qing Kingdom to participate in the imperial examination in the future, your main task is to teach the children English, so that they can communicate with foreigners without barriers, and you don't have to worry about the rest." Luo Ke will not let the children learn what Bagu Wen, I see that I am going to die, at this time to participate in the imperial examination, similar to joining the KMT in 49.

Regarding the Four Books and Five Classics, no matter what, they are all part of the traditional Chinese culture, if they can, Luo Ke hopes that these overseas Chinese will still have as much understanding of the Four Books and Five Classics as possible, at least familiar with one of them, whether it is the Analects or the Spring and Autumn Period, to the extent that they can be familiar with the allusions and passages in it, so as to be worthy of their Chinese identity.

Back in Oak Town, Feng Fu realized how much money Roque had invested for these children.

Right next to the church, in the prime location of Oak Square, a two-storey wooden building with a large area rises from the ground.

The first floor of the wooden building is a spacious and bright classroom, the classroom covers an area of nearly 100 square meters, all the windows are used with glass and curtains, there is a layer of window screen outside the window, the classroom is not only paved with wooden floors, all the table corners are also oval, students do not have to worry about bruises and bruises in the classroom, a small corner of the podium, but also put a chair and a coffee table, can be used for Feng Fu to rest between classes.

The second floor of the wooden building is a library that also functions as a reading room, and there are several rows of long tables and chairs in the center of the library, which is enough for thirty or forty people to use at the same time, and there is a circle of bookshelves placed against the wall, and now the books on it are not full, only a few hundred and ten books, and the remaining space is randomly placed with some green plants and decorative ornaments.

Feng Fu stepped forward and took out a copy casually, which was the classic British picture book "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star".

"There are very few books now, and it is very difficult to buy Chinese books here in Cape Town, but I have asked someone to go back to the Qing Dynasty to buy them, and I believe that one day, the bookshelves here will always be full." Roque is confident, take your time, Roque still has time.

"Luo Ye rest assured, Feng will do his best to live up to Luo Ye's high expectations." Feng Fu didn't know why, and suddenly felt the urge to take his family to Oak Town.

Now Oak Town, it's really beautiful.

A few days ago, there was a light snowfall, now the snow on the ground has not melted, the sky and the earth are white, standing in front of the window, there is a faint smell of wine, there is a faint smell of wine, there are children's laughter and reading in the distance, a policeman wearing a standard woolen coat rode a horse under the window, a few wild rabbits were still dripping blood hanging on the saddle, two hounds shook their heads and tails followed the horse, looking at the rabbits salivating, two patrol officers came over at the corner of the street, and greeted the knight warmly, The knight, who had just returned from a hunt, invited the two patrolmen to his house for a drink in the evening, and invited them to taste the freshly brewed ice wine and fresh hares—

After a few sentences, the two hounds sneaked over and licked the blood that had just dripped on the ground, causing the knight and the patrol to laugh and scold.

That's life.
