The choice of food at banquets in Nyasaland has always been a combination of East and West.

There are chefs who prepare a variety of food on the spot, including ice cream and canapés for all flavours, as well as chefs who specialize in grilled meats and grilled fish in the style of Nyasaland.

The grilled fish is a small whitebait produced in Lake Nyasa, this kind of fish meat is tender and nutritious, and it can be grilled and eaten directly after being fished out of the lake.

In this regard, Roque is still low-key, many good things in Nyasaland, such as improved general-purpose machine guns and 40mm rapid-fire guns, as well as tractors and trucks, Roque is not sold to the public now, otherwise it is not difficult for Roque to sell Nyasaland products to Europe.

Xiao Si has no scruples about this, and sells the canned food to Nyasaland, and Xiao Si only charges a cost price, and it is really profitable to sell it to Europe.

In order to reduce costs, Xiao Si, a profiteer, has now set up a food laboratory to study the taste of canned food and the proportion of ingredients, which is most obvious to the officers and soldiers of the northern Rhodesia Division, the meat in the luncheon meat is getting less and less, and when the lid is opened, there is a strong starch smell, and the oil used is not the same as the previous oil, for which Xiao Si was not less scolded.

That is, there are many rivers and lakes in Nyasaland, so the mouth of Nyasaland people is becoming more and more picky, and almost no one eats luncheon meat in Nyasaland.

In this era, people still lack oil and water in their stomachs, and ordinary European families are the same, the real rich are nobles and merchants, and even ordinary government employees, life is just getting by.

At any time, the dividends of social development will not benefit everyone.

The same is true in Nyasaland, which is now reluctant to attract population, and as long as there are Chinese willing to immigrate to Nyasaland, Nyasaland will welcome them with open arms.

But immigration to Nyasaland does not mean once and for all, those who are idle, lazy and hard-working, are also not welcome in Nyasaland, basically every immigration ship that comes to Nyasaland, when it returns to the country, has to bring dozens of Chinese who were repatriated to the Qing Dynasty, many of them do not realize what they have missed, it doesn't matter if they are repatriated, some people can realize it, but they also lose the opportunity, Nyasaland has never been tolerant in this regard.

Xiao Si is very interested in the food of Nyasaland, every time he comes to Nyasaland, Xiao Si always has new discoveries, and he now employs Chinese chefs at home, and his pursuit of appetite is endless.

Roque is a never-ending quest for industry.

"Quality! Quality is the lifeline of the product, we can not ignore it at any time, we would rather reduce the output, but also to ensure the quality of the product; In addition to the quality is performance, the current diesel engine is 50 horsepower, then the next step is to study 80, 100, or even 200 horsepower engines, European engine manufacturers are also improving, almost every day there are new technologies appearing, we want to maintain the advantage, we must be in the pursuit of performance and quality on the road endlessly. Roque was demanding, and Rudolph Diesel and Duncan nodded their heads despite their difficult faces.

That's how Roque's sense of urgency comes from, Xiao Si and Henry often say that they don't know why Roque is so urgent, and they can't wait to become a fat man in one bite, that's because Xiao Si and Henry don't understand how fast the world will develop in the next few decades.

"Don't be in a hurry to make money, at least not in a hurry now, in two years, we will sell our products to Europe, at this stage we have to cultivate internal skills, more skilled workers, better product quality, more advanced performance, we must ensure that we establish advantages between similar products in Europe, so that we can really open up product sales." Roque still reassured that when tractors and trucks were just being developed, many people wanted to sell their products to Europe, and Rudolf Diesel was the most urgent.

There is still news in Europe that Rudolph Diesel has died, and many people don't know that Rudolph Diesel is in Nyasaland, so Rudolph Diesel really wants to sell tractors and trucks to Europe, not only for profit, but also for Rudolph Diesel's honor.

For officials like Duncan, they also want to sell their products to Europe.

Nyasaland was now like a monster, and everyone who knew the truth was marveling at the speed of Nyasaland's development, but Roque did not promote Nyasaland's idea, and he wanted to hold Nyasaland in his arms, which was not in line with the practice of most colonies at this time.

In order to attract immigrants, almost all colonies in the world are high-profile propaganda, in the official mouth, all colonies in the world are paradise, immigration colonies will instantly become winners in life, reimbursement of immigration costs or something is a routine operation, when the "Peace Agreement" was just signed, the Transvaal government even promised that as long as there are immigrants to the Transvaal, the Transvaal government will reimburse the cost of immigration and give money to the land, even so, still no one wants to come to the Transvaal.

During this period, the first choice of European immigrants was the Americas, the second choice was North Africa, and only those who were desperate would choose southern Africa, such as those Jews who were ostracized throughout the world.

"Why wait until two years from now?" Xiao Si's political sense of smell is indeed insensitive, and almost everyone knows how obvious the problem is, so Xiao Si is still confused.

Historically, when Xiao Si was indeed confused, otherwise there would be no autonomy for South Africa, Rhodesia watched coldly, and in the end, the South African company ceased to exist.

"The Boers are lobbying in London for Orange to implement a democratic representative system as soon as possible—" Roque nodded, and it dawned on him at once.

The lack of a keen sense of politics does not mean that Xiao Si is stupid, Roque has instilled in Xiao Si the benefits of autonomy in the past two years, and Xiao Si is now also looking forward to how much potential it can explode once the four colonies of southern Africa are autonomous together.

Cape and Natal, Orange how much potential Xiao Si doesn't know, the potential of the Transvaal has now been released, Xiao Si is full of confidence in Rhodesia and Nyasaland, many good things in Nyasaland are hidden, if Roque is willing to take it out, he can make a splash now.

But in that case, Nyasaland will definitely get attention, and now although the British government also knows that Nyasaland has developed tractors and trucks, but there are no new things that have been tested by the market, the British government will not pay much attention to them, and there are many new things for the British government, and the attention will not be paid much attention to.

Early the next morning, Roque and Xiao Si took the train to Port Edward together, relatively speaking, the space on the train was more private, so Roque could say a lot of things.

"If Orange begins to implement a democratic representative system, then the Transvaal will definitely implement it, and then we can work together to promote the establishment of the Federation of South Africa, and Rhodesia and Nyasaland can take advantage of this opportunity to merge into the Union of South Africa, and then completely get rid of the remote control of the homeland. Roque has had this plan for a long time, but it's a pity that they can't say it directly with Ade and Philip, and Xiao Si is an outlier, so Roque can open his heart.

Don't look at Xiao Si as a pure British, but Xiao Si's attitude towards the British government is very disgusting.

Everything stems from the discord between the British government and Cecil Rhodes, in order to limit Cecil Rhodes, Queen Victoria did not knight Cecil Rhodes, but in order to reward Cecil Rhodes's merits, Queen Victoria entrusted Rhodes to the South African company to manage, which laid a hidden danger for the current relationship between Rhodesia and the British government, and there are many untold stories between the royal family and the government.

The British like to dig pits, which really has penetrated into their bones, not only good at digging pits for outsiders, but also for their own people.

"Autonomy is undesirable for you, and the future is uncertain for me, at least after the autonomy of Rhodesia, it will be even more difficult to get immigrants from the mainland." Xiao Si also thinks a lot, and population has always been the biggest factor restricting the development of southern Africa.

"It's not easy to get immigrants from your home turf now!" In Roque's words, most of the white immigrants in Rhodesia came from continental European countries, and very few came from the British mainland.

Relatively speaking, although southern Africa is a chicken rib for the British government, it is still a bit attractive to immigrants from continental European countries, and the Indians in the United States are almost killed by the Americans in these years, and it is difficult for the bottom groups in Europe to get out after arriving in the United States.

Africa is different, don't look at the colonization of Africa by European countries for hundreds of years, the main population of Africa is still Africans, and the number of whites is still limited, which means that those people at the bottom who can't get along in Europe will become superior "people" when they get to Africa, which is still very attractive to many people who have no confidence in themselves and have little ability themselves.

Of course, this situation is just a propaganda campaign by the colonial government to attract immigrants, and the specific situation is still different from the propaganda, and people like Cecil Rhodes came to southern Africa empty-pocketed, but within a few years they became millionaires, and more gold prospectors found nothing in the Transvaal, and lived a similar life as in Europe, with no essential difference.

So whether you can get out of the way, the key is to rely on yourself.
