258 Chain of Contempt

The brother settles the accounts, if it is his own company, it will be forgotten, and the partnership cannot mobilize the company's resources for free to serve himself because he is the boss, and the money that should be paid still has to be paid.

What's more, the money paid by Owen should be counted in the campaign funds strictly speaking.

This is the reason why Roque hates the democratic representative system, this thing is indeed a matter of labor and money, it seems to be meritocracy now, and it will evolve into political correctness in the future, even if Nyasaland joins the South African Union, Roque will never implement a democratic representative system in Nyasaland.

If something is given away, it is impossible to take it back.

"What about the results of the investigation?" Roque also cares about this Rausch National Party, and those people are really more than successful and more than defeated.

"It doesn't seem serious, the National Party now has only a few dozen members, but they are in frequent contact with London, and we traced the telegraph address and found Arnold Matilda." Xia Jiu said a name that Roque had almost forgotten.

Yes, how can Arnold be missing such a lively event.

The Matilda family and the Alsop family are world friends, Arnold and Henry Alsop must have a good relationship, Roque heard Phyllis talk about it, Arnold and Henry Alsop have been smelling like each other since childhood, these people came together, and Roque was not surprised at all.

But the dozens of members of the National Party, Roque is very curious now, they have all reached this situation, there are still people who will join the National Party, Roque has to doubt the political vision of those people, don't look at Henry Alsop is now very high-key, if there is really a general election, it is estimated that the National Party will lose very badly.

Roque almost forgot, and the Boers.

But that's not a problem, the National Party can work with the Boers, the Liberals can work with the Boers, and Roque will find an opportunity to meet Louis Botha.

Forget about Yang Smozi, Roque doesn't have a good impression of Yang Smozi.

"Are there any officials in Johannesburg who have joined the National Party?" Roque asked.

Xia Jiu didn't answer Roque's question directly, but took out a piece of paper from the pile of papers on the desk and handed it to Roque.

This is a list of members of the National Party, about forty or fifty names are listed on the paper, and there are notes behind the names, none of them are officials of sufficient rank, and a few of them do work in government departments, but they are all small roles such as low-level employees, Roque looked at it from beginning to end, except for Henry Alsop and Kevin Trivecon, none of them are familiar.

Roque relieved himself at this time, if the National Party had this energy, then there was really no need for Roque to worry.

Even if Roque doesn't make a move, Owen can directly overthrow the National Party, and now the Liberal Party has more than 30,000 official members, and these 30,000 people are not only men, but also women.

"How did you get this list?" Roque was a little curious about how Xia Jiu worked.

"Uh-sir, three of the people on the list are from us, two of them are presumably the chairman of Owen, and a few Boers whose motives are not pure, and I estimate that a small half of these forty or fifty people have other purposes for joining the National Party." Xia Jiu was still a little embarrassed, this method was not above board enough, but the result was a bit dramatic.

Roque couldn't help laughing, this National Party is a little unlucky, if what Xia Jiu said is true, then it will be funny when the National Party participates in the general election-

Speaking of being funny, Roque suddenly blessed his heart.

"Arrange for more people to join the National Party-" Roque looked at the list in his hand, and definitely gave Henry Alsop a big move: "Find more than a hundred people to add first, perform as well as possible, and try to mix in as much as possible to have a position-"

Xia Jiu couldn't help laughing, although Roque didn't say what he was going to do, but Xia Jiu was not stupid, and he knew from watching Roque's operation that Roque was ready to make the National Party a joke at some point.

Compared to Roque's old yin, Henry Alsop and Kevin Trevecom are pure white rabbits.

Henry Alsop and Kevin Trivekang founded the National Party, originally to disgust the Liberal Party, and did not have the luxury of competing with the Liberal Party, everyone in the Transvaal knows that no matter what the future holds, this election, the Liberal Party will win, and there will be no other accidents.

Roque and Owen's first-mover advantage over others was so obvious that while everyone else was still busy rebuilding, Roque and Owen had already formed the Liberal Party to prepare for the seemingly illusory democratic representative system at that time.

Now that Johannesburg is really going to implement a democratic representative system, everyone is surprised to find that the Liberal Party has accumulated an unparalleled advantage, not to mention whether the Chinese have the right to vote at that time, looking at the current situation, even if the Chinese have no voting rights, it is estimated that no organization in the Transvaal can compete with the Liberal Party.

Even Xia Jiu can easily get a list of members of the National Party, which shows how loose the organizational structure of the National Party is.

Unlike the imposing headquarters of the Liberal Party, which covers a huge area, the headquarters of the National Party is located in a two-story wooden building not far from the officialdom of the railway station, and Henry Alsop and Kevin Trivekang are not satisfied with this headquarters, but they cannot find a more suitable location, so they can only temporarily settle down here.

The National Party is indeed struggling, Henry Alsop and Kevin Trivecom also have their own backgrounds, the two of them went all out, but only forty or fifty people joined the National Party, Henry Alsop and Kevin Trivecom did not know that among these forty or fifty people, a small half of them were ghosts, otherwise it is estimated that Henry Alsop and Kevin Trivecom would be devastated.

"We have to give more benefits to win over more people to join the National Party." Kevin is very worried, the current Kevin, whether it is Henry of Matilda's family, or Roque, Kevin can't afford to provoke him, before Henry said that he wanted to beat Kevin was not a joke, Kevin tasted Henry's fist.

"This is Johannesburg, and the Matilda family can give more of the benefits we can give." Henry Alsop's face was gloomy, Johannesburg was the home of the Matilda family, and Henry Alsop, even if he had a lieutenant governor's father, didn't want to compete with the Matilda family in Johannesburg.

"So what's the point of us staying in Johannesburg?" Kevin Trevecon was irritable inside, he hadn't seen a pregnant Phyllis yet, otherwise he would have been even more irritable.

Well, if Henry Alsop saw the pregnant Phyllis, it is estimated that Henry Alsop would also be very irritable.

"Think about it with your pig brain, we are now accumulating experience, Johannesburg is just a pilot, the Transvaal will implement a democratic representative system in the future, Johannesburg is the territory of the Matilda family, but Pretoria is not, and when we return to Pretoria, it is the time for our National Party to exert its strength." Henry Alsop was not stupid, and in Johannesburg the National Party posed no threat to the Liberals, as Henry Alsop admitted.

But back in Pretoria, the National Party was not without its efforts, and in Pretoria, the power of the Lieutenant Governor was still great.

Henry Alsop's purpose in establishing the National Party was not simple, don't forget that the democratic representative system is for a general election, and if nothing else, when the Transvaal implements the democratic representative system, it is estimated that Henry Alsop's father will also be eligible to run.

So when the time comes, if the National Party can put Henry Alsop's father, Baron Harry Alsop of Mahanles, to power, then the Alsop family will make money.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see the potential of the Transvaal, and Henry Alsop has also received an elite education since childhood, and he is no stranger to these things, and the struggle for power and intrigue is almost an innate talent.

It's just that there aren't so many talent points.

"Wellโ€”" Kevin Trivecom was speechless.

Kevin Trivekang had just been married a few years ago, and his wife was the daughter of a low-ranking official in Pretoria.

After getting married, Kevin Trivecom did not accept the reality, but complained more about the injustice of fate, Lacey's father is now the commander of the Transvaal garrison, and Phyllis's father is the mayor of Johannesburg, both of whom are of higher status than Kevin Trivecon's current father-in-law.

If Kevin Trivecan's wife can be more beautiful than Lacey and Phyllis, it is estimated that Kevin will feel better, but this is a marriage arranged by Kevin's father, and Kevin's wife is not beautiful, so Kevin will be jealous as long as he thinks of Lacey and Phyllis.

"What does that idiot Arnold say, when will he come to Johannesburg?" Henry Alsop wasn't without his back, and in Johannesburg, Arnold was Henry Alsop's hole card.

No matter what, Arnold is also a member of the Matilda family, if Arnold joins the National Party, then Philip, even if he is partial, will not ignore Arnold's interests in the slightest, and then the National Party will have a chance.

"It's not certain that Arnold still wants to be the president of the National Party, and if he doesn't agree to this, Arnold probably won't agree to join the National Party." Kevin's answer made Henry Alsop grit his teeth a little, Nima is going to be the chairman when he comes up, where to put Henry Alsop, the party chairman, where to go?

"Promise him, as long as he can come over as soon as possible." Henry Alsop still knows how to make trade-offs, and if the National Party is still half-dead at present, then the party chairman is also dispensable.

If the National Party can change its mind because of Arnold, then Henry Alsop will naturally have a way to get Arnold out.

For Roque and Henry, Henry Alsop was an idiot.

For Henry Alsop, Arnold and Kevin were equally idiots.
