In Nyasaland, if you dare to choke Roque in front of you, I am afraid that only the Boers will be left.

Sure enough, it was Yang Shi Mozi, who had always looked at each other with Roque.

In fact, Jan Smoltz is the same as Louis Botha, both are very good Boers, but the biggest difference between Louis Botta and Jan Smoltz is that Louis Botta will take into account the overall situation when thinking about problems many times, while Jan Smoltz is more radical and will consider problems completely from the position of Boers.

In Orange, Jan Smoltz's official position is Attorney General, and in the future, when the Federal Government of Southern Africa is formed, Jan Smoltz's preferred position will be Attorney General.

It's a pity that compared with Roque, Jan Smozi's influence is obviously not enough, and under the premise that Roque also wants to serve as the Minister of Justice, Jan Smozi is simply unable to compete with Roque.

Therefore, Yang Shi Mozi looked at Roque very unpleasantly during this time, and now as soon as he has the opportunity, he immediately jumps out and takes the initiative to provoke.

For such a person, Roque is definitely not polite, casually glanced at Jan Smozi, the meaning of contempt is still obvious: "Whether you are qualified or not is not up to you, the professors of the Law Department of the University of Nyasaland have been committed to improving various laws and regulations in Nyasaland, and now Nyasaland may have the most complete legal system in the whole of Africa, if you don't know Nyasaland, you can go to Nyasaland to have a look, don't take ignorance as a personality." ”

Roque's words also revealed a lot of information, and it was the first time that Roque made the existence of the University of Nyasaland public.

There was a lot of discussion at the scene, Ade, Philip Gujing Bubo, who knew the situation, Xiao Si and Henry, who knew the situation but were not deep enough, Dr. Starr Jameson and Isaiah Queller, who had already established an alliance with Roque, were full of surprise, and as for Louis Botha and Jan Smoths—

Luis Botha was better, barely able to control his emotions.

Jan Smozi couldn't help it, and his expression was a little distorted by Roque's stimulation: "University of Nyasaland, hehe, it's funny, do you think that as long as you build a few houses and hang a sign, you can build a higher education institution?" It's just naïve! ”

When he said this, he immediately offended a group of people.

The first to jump out and fire was Professor Douglas, a former member of the Johannesburg City Council and current vice-chancellor of the University of Nyasaland.

"Mr. Jan Smoz, your current behavior is funny, what you can't do doesn't mean that others can't do it, don't use your narrow mind to evaluate other people's efforts, that's a very superficial behavior, in fact, as long as you invest enough, you can really use money to smash education out, this is how the Johannesburg Medical School was established, if you don't trust the education level of the Johannesburg Medical School, you can, then Orange can not accept graduates of the Johannesburg Medical School in the future." Douglas is also ruthless in this hand, the key is that he can really do it.

The current students of the Johannesburg Medical School are all contracted to train this model, and Roque plans to promote the Ziwei Hospital model, so the vast majority of students are funded by Ziwei Hospital to be sent to the Johannesburg Medical School.

This means that after graduation, these students will have to work for Roque for a considerable period of time to repay the costs incurred during their time at the Johannesburg Medical School, which is not low, on average, each student will spend about 1,000 pounds a year during the Johannesburg Medical School.

So the aristocracy's monopoly on culture is no joke, if it weren't for the Ziwei Hospital, there would really be few people in southern Africa going to school.

Of course, the 1,000 pounds here is only the price set by the Johannesburg Medical School, not the actual investment, although Roque wants to break the monopoly of the aristocracy on knowledge and culture, but in a short period of time, limited by the educational resources of the medical school, Roque can only give priority to ensuring the educational opportunities of the Chinese.

High fees are a means used by medical schools to limit the number of students available, and if anyone is willing to pay a thousand pounds a year to go to school, the medical school will certainly accept it.

If Roque wants to promote Ziwei Hospital, it must also include Orange.

Unlike the Transvaal, there is not a single formal hospital in the whole of Orange, except for a few private clinics in Bloemfontein.

These private clinics can only provide certain medical services for dignitaries, and they are far from Ziwei Hospital in terms of technical level and hardware facilities.

Roque's Ziwei Hospital in Orange will certainly be more expensive, but the corresponding level of service will be much higher than that of private clinics, which is currently also in charge of Douglas, so Douglas's threat is really no joke.

"Professor Douglas, the two are not the same thing, please don't confuse them." No matter how bad his temper is, Jan Smozi still has to control it when facing Douglas, otherwise this old man can really do what he says.

"The University of Nyasaland has started recruiting students the year before last, and the school is located on the shores of Lake Xuanji in Nyasaland, which is the first truly higher education institution in southern Africa, thanks to Lord Nyasaland and Professor Douglas for their selfless investment—" Ade did not target Jan Smoz, but the slap in the face was also obvious.

Roque and Douglas, as well as a group of officials from the Nyasaland department, stood up and bowed to Ade, and by the way, they were greeted by the enthusiastic applause of the audience.

It's really "universities" that are too important for Southern Africa.

In southern Africa, or Africa as a whole, the only university that could be regarded as a university was the "Cape of Good Hope University" in Cape Town.

Although the British government nominally recognizes the academic qualifications of the "Cape of Good Hope", it is limited to the faculty and hardware facilities, and even few people in Cape Town know about the existence of the "Cape of Good Hope University".

The University of Nyasaland, which was founded by Roque, is certainly not the same thing as the University of Good Hope in Cape Town, and the people here, even Louis Botha and Jan Smoz, actually know Roque very well and know that Roque has always spared no effort in terms of investment, so as soon as Ade's words fell, many people on the scene moved their minds.

I really know the importance of education, just like the people in southern Africa are willing to send their children to Ziwei Public School for education, there was no way to send children back to their homeland for education in the past, and there are no educational resources comparable to those in southern Africa.

Now it is different, the original intention of Roque to establish Ziwei College is to benchmark the top schools such as Eton College and Harrow School, and even if this purpose has not been achieved, more and more people recognize the level of Ziwei School.

Even if it's a little bit, it's worth it without having to cross the ocean and live apart.

"But what does this have to do with the judicial power and the legislative power?" Jan Smozi is no longer entangled in this issue, there are few cities in southern Africa that have the strength to become the capital, and compared with Pretoria and Cape Town, Bloemfontein is inferior in all aspects, if you add Nyasaland, the result is really hard to say.

Although Jan Smozi has never been to Nyasaland, but looking at the current Johannesburg and Ziwei Town, you know that Roque has a lot of experience in urban construction, plus Roque is indeed rich, and he is willing to spend money, and the effect is still very significant.

When it comes to urban construction, Bloemfontein is not even as good as Johannesburg now, so Bloemfontein was originally used to make up the numbers to appease the Boers, but now Roque jumped out -

The outlook is not good.

"So you want to place the judicial or legislative capital in Bloemfontein, and what special contribution does Bloemfontein have in these areas?" Roque doesn't dwell on this issue, so he can't just raise his hand to vote.

Jan Smozi still wanted to distinguish it, but was stopped by Louis Botha: "Locke, the location of Nyasaland is too remote, if Nyasaland joins the Federal Government of Southern Africa, then Nyasaland is equivalent to being on the border of the Federal Government of Southern Africa, from the perspective of national defense, it is not suitable to put any capital in Nyasaland." ”

Or Louis Botha is sophisticated, and he points out the death hole of Nyasaland in one sentence.

Indeed, if Nyasaland were to join the federal government, Nyasaland would be the northernmost point of the Southern African Federation, facing the threat of Tanganyika.

Now that war has not broken out, there is already constant friction between Nyasaland and Tanganyika, and if war does break out in the future, then Nyasaland will face the threat of war, and this problem is indeed very serious.

"Don't worry about this problem, Nyasaland is absolutely capable of keeping the border safe!" Roque is very confident now, as far as Tanganyika's military strength is concerned, Roque really doesn't pay attention to it, if war breaks out, at most a week, the Northern Rhodesia Division and the new 1st Cavalry Division can be bulldozed Gunika.

"Sir, Nyasaland doesn't even have an army, how can we ensure the security of the border-" Louis Botha said without being soft or hard, which was Roque's shortcoming.

There is no way, although everyone knows that the Northern Rhodesia Division is a unit of Nyasaland, but nominally, the Northern Rhodesia Division still belongs to the South African company and belongs to Rhodesia, and it has nothing to do with Nyasaland.

"Louis, you should know that the most combat-ready troops in southern Africa are not the army, but the police-" Roque also fought back sharply, during the Boer War, Roque led a group of policemen to drive Louis Botha out of the Transvaal, and Louis Botha almost became a prisoner, so Louis Botha should be very clear about the combat effectiveness of the police.

Sure enough, Louis Botha's expression was very helpless, which was also a stain, and he would never want to get rid of it for the rest of his life.
