Pretoria is the future Tshwane, the administrative capital of South Africa, the former capital of the Transvaal Republic, with the Cape's only institution of higher learning, the University of Good Hope, which is the future University of South Africa.

Pretoria is rich in gold and diamonds, the Rand gold mine is the world's largest gold mine, accounting for more than half of the world's gold mining every year, and Premir has the largest diamond mine in the Cape, accounting for half of the Cape's diamond mining, and the Kimberley is in competition.

As the first settlement after the Boers moved north, Pretoria was a completely European city, the city was founded by the Boers, thanks to the discovery of the Rand gold mines, the Boers at that time had a lot of money and spared no expense in building Pretoria, and now, all this is cheaper for the British.

Church Square is the centre of Pretoria, and the Palace of Justice on the north side of Church Square is the official residence of Alfred Milner, an Italian-style marble building that will be the future Gauteng Supreme Court, where Mandela was tried.

Opposite the Palace of Justice is the former parliament building of the Transvaal Republic, which is now the office of Alfred Milner, and next to the parliament building is the home of Paul Kryuger, the first president of the Transvaal Republic.

"Locke, you say, how about we stay at Paul Kryuger's house?" Henry had a bad taste, but of course because Paul Kryuger's home was one of the few intact buildings around the church square.

Although Pretoria is the largest city in the Transvaal Republic, after all, it has just experienced the baptism of war, when the expeditionary force attacked Pretoria, and the defenders of Pretoria carried out a brutal offensive and defensive battle in the urban area, as a result, most of the buildings in the urban area of Pretoria were damaged, and the few remaining intact buildings were also looted by the soldiers of the expeditionary force, so Next, Pretoria still has a long reconstruction work.

However, this is not a problem for Roque and Henry to consider, it is a problem for Alfred Milner, who is only responsible for the policing of Pretoria.

In fact, the problem of law and order is not too troublesome, and in the whole of Pretoria, there are no more than 20,000 people left after the war, and most of them are women and children, and Roque has a lot of experience in this area.

"Don't be stupid, this kind of celebrity house must not be preserved, I suggest you go and propose to His Excellency the Governor that all the buildings left by the Boers in Pretoria be demolished, as well as these streets, and renamed as well, so that the traces of the Boers can be erased to the greatest extent and they will not be left with a chance to make a comeback." The demolition of these buildings is tantamount to rebuilding a new Pretoria, which will certainly greatly increase the cost of reconstruction, but after the completion of the reconstruction, the new Pretoria will have nothing to do with the previous Boers, so that it can maintain peace and stability for a long time.

To be honest, the Chinese are much more experienced than the British in this regard, and Alfred Milner preserved these ancient buildings in history, but after the establishment of the South African Federation, the Boers made a comeback, and Paul Kryugall's home became a memorial, and there was a street named after Paul Kruger in the city, and a monument to the development of the ancestors of the Boers who moved north was also built on the nearby hill, and within a few years, Pretoria became the world of the Boers again.

In fact, it didn't matter if Pretoria was in the hands of the British, or in the hands of the Boers.

Roque's fear was that this compromise would become habitual, just as the British would compromise with the Boers in the future, and the white South Africans of the future would compromise with the blacks, and that would be the beginning of a catastrophe.

If there aren't many Chinese in the Cape, then any toss between whites and blacks has nothing to do with Roque.

Not now, Roque is in Cape, because of Roque's existence, more and more Chinese immigrants to Cape, Roque has to be responsible to these people who trust him, even if South Africa is changing when the sky changes, Roque is probably no longer there, but for the sake of his descendants, Roque can't let this happen.

"Yes, is this necessary? Do you know how much that costs? Henry knew that Roque had rebuilt Oaktown, but Pretoria was not Oaktown, and Henry couldn't imagine how much money would be needed to rebuild a city as big as Pretoria.

"I don't know, but with the constant supply of gold from the Rand Gold Mine, the money can be spent, and—it's worth it!" Roque's heart is as strong as iron, which is indeed unfair to the Boers, but Roque still does not hesitate, people are not for themselves, and the heavens and the earth will be destroyed!

"I, I'll have to think about it." Henry didn't dare to make a decision right away, his mouth was dry and he stammered.

"I think Locke was right." Phyllis also has worries in her eyes, I don't know when it started, the "Brother Locke" in Phyllis's mouth has become "Locke".

"Shut up!" Henry doesn't give Phyllis a chance to interject.

Cathedral Square is the centre of Pretoria, where the Governor's official residence and government offices are located, so this is the focus of protection, and Roque and Henry left enough police to maintain law and order before going to the Pretoria Police Station.

The police station is actually next to the church square, covering a large area, and the buildings are quite intact, after entering the police station, Roque and Henry found that all the buildings in the police station are actually made of marble.

The Boers are really wealthy.

In fact, what Roque and Henry don't know is that the police of the Transvaal Republic are not the same thing as the police of Cape Town, and the Transvaal Republic did not have a standing army at the beginning, so the police force of the Transvaal Republic is the most elite force of the Transvaal Republic.

Of course, all this is now cheaper for Roarke and Henry.

"It's not bad to live in a police station—" Henry didn't have too high a requirement for a place to live, just think of Henry's home on Government Street.

"Don't be stupid, Christian has prepared a place for us to stay, come with me." Roque won't live in a police station.

In fact, when Roque and they got off the train, Zach was waiting at the train station, and now Zach is at the door of the police station, and after seeing Roque, Zach smiled brightly.

Well, that kind of smile with eight teeth, as long as Zach doesn't open his mouth, no one notices that Zack doesn't have a tongue.
