Buying people's hearts is a very technical job, doing well will get twice the result with half the effort, and doing bad things will get twice the result with half the effort.

For example, if the French do not understand what the chief likes, and rashly buy the chief, then the consequences must be very tragic, and the chief will really accept the benefits, and then sell the French.

Roque was not completely defenseless against the chief, and there were also white newspaper operators who went to Madagascar with the chief, and three of the 59 people under the chief were special personnel arranged by Yaya, and one of them was a member of the chief's clan, as long as the chief behaved abnormally, Roque would receive the news immediately.

After the outbreak of the plague, Ziwei Public School was closed, and although Roque would return to Ziwei every day, he wanted to see Phyllis separated by two iron fences and a five-meter-long isolation zone.

Every day when Roque leaves Ziwei Town, he will pass by Ziwei School, and under normal circumstances, Roque has to go out very early, otherwise he will almost be able to have lunch in Johannesburg.

Since the outbreak of the plague, Roque has to wait until seven o'clock every day to leave the house, when the girls' school usually does morning exercises, and Roque will say hello to Phyllis, who is leading the exercises, before going to work in Johannesburg.

Recently, Christian has been seeking Roque's forgiveness, but Roque has not given Christian a chance.

Christian followed Roque back and forth between Johannesburg and the town of Purple every day, and when Roque went to work, Christian was guarding the gate of the Johannesburg Police Station, and after a week, even Owen couldn't see it.

"Locke, you're too Christian, anyway, Christian is now the largest construction contractor in the Transvaal, and it's not good for you to treat him like this." Owen kindly reminded Roque to come to his senses and immediately asked Don to call Christian over.

Owen is right, Christian is cautious here at Roque, and he is very arrogant when he goes out, otherwise he would not dare to cut corners in municipal engineering.

In fact, this matter is not entirely to blame Christian, Christian undertook municipal projects from the Ministry of the Interior, and then sent kickbacks to officials of the Ministry of the Interior according to the rules, this was originally a good thing for you and me, everyone is good, the big guy made money tacitly, and the municipal project was not delayed, how good.

However, some people in the Ministry of the Interior were not satisfied, not only did they ask for more kickbacks, but they also did not want to ask for money, so Christian could only do everything possible to save costs, and the result was that the municipal works were not up to standard.

Someone who was not satisfied, because he had a connection in the Governor's Palace, was not punished, but was transferred to Pretoria for another appointment, and Christian became a scapegoat, not only to be fined, but also to look bad on Roque's face.

Christian has always been Roque's man, and that has never changed.

When he saw Roque, Christian was full of flattery, with a humble smile on his face, his tailor-made suit was crumpled, his beard was obviously unshaven for days, and his hair was messy like a chicken coop, like a stray dog on the street.

Roque was angry when he saw it, and anyone who saw Christian's ghost appearance probably wouldn't have imagined that Christian was actually a millionaire.

It is said that it can make a millionaire so compromised, if this matter is spread, it will indeed have an impact on Roque's reputation, no wonder Owen will remind Roque.

"Lord, I was wrong, I will correct it, and rework all the sewers in strict accordance with the standards of the city government." Christian admitted his mistake as soon as he came up, and his attitude was extremely sincere.

Roque nodded, noncommittal.

Christian scratched his head and continued to nod his head: "Lord, I guarantee with my life that only the sewers of the municipality have been affected, and the other works guarantee that there will be no cutting corners, especially Ziwei Town-"

Roque was speechless, this guy was repeatedly entangled in these details, and he didn't realize what he was doing wrong.

"Thanks to Locke, Mr. Christian is still very good, and the city government has not held Mr. Christian responsible, so forget it." Owen was still helping, and Roque was suddenly curious, Owen didn't seem to be so easy to talk to.

"Sir, I am now also a member of the Liberal Party, and in order to show my loyalty to the Liberal Party, I have made a voluntary donation of ten thousand pounds to the Liberal Party." Christian has no problem with what he says.

It dawned on Roque that it was no wonder that Owen was helping Christian speak, it turned out that it was better to use the pound.

£10,000 is not a small number, and it may be the largest individual donation from the Liberal Party since its inception.

To put it more noly, solving problems for Liberal members is what Owen should do.

Owen obviously didn't expect Christian to sell himself away, the corners of his mouth twitched a little, and his expression was a little distorted.

Roque laughed, feeling better at last.

"Congratulations, Mr. Christian, on becoming the first Liberal member to be expelled." Owen was vicious, showing the majesty of the party leader to punish the former and the latter.

"If I am fired, will I be refunded the money I donated?" Christian was hopeful, and it was estimated that Owen would have to return the money at this time, and Christian would be able to laugh out loud.

“F***！” Owen felt his blood pressure rise, and the blood vessels in his brain were pounding.

"Come on, don't make our president angry, since you like to donate so much, then donate ten thousand pounds a year." Roque spoke to play a round, 10,000 pounds a year is nothing for Christian, a builder, there are tens of thousands of people under Christian now, and Roque doesn't know how much Christian has earned in the past two years.

Hearing Roque's words, Owen immediately felt a lot more relaxed, sure enough, businessmen are unreliable, or their own family is reliable.

"Yes, Lord, ten thousand pounds a year." Christian is very smart, as long as he can hold the thighs of Roque and Owen, 10,000 pounds a year is nothing, even if Christian is asked to pay 100,000, Christian will not blink.

Through this incident, Christian has become more aware of the fact that only by following the right person can he make money safely.

A total of three companies have been imprisoned because of the municipal works fraud case, two of which are Christian's subordinates, all of whom are serving sentences in Johannesburg prison, and Christian has already visited the two hapless directors, who are not bad in prison, living in a single cell with a bathroom, and have not been abused, compared to other prisoners.

As for the other company, it is said that the boss behind the scenes is the "Honorable Excellency" who has been transferred to Pretoria, and now the head of that company is also being held in Johannesburg prison, and I heard that he has broken his leg during the interrogation, and he has also received "special care" from his fellow inmates in the cell, which is really worse than death.

This is the importance of following the right people, don't look at Christian because of the municipal project is a fine and rework, but in the future, Christian can still continue to receive municipal projects, at most change the name of the company, even the workers do not have to change.

As for the scapegoat who followed the wrong person, he estimated that it would be difficult for him to get out of prison alive.

"Hmph, Lord Nyasaland, as the vice chairman of the Liberal Party and a member of the Party Committee, should you also contribute to the development of the Liberal Party?" Owen didn't let go of Roque, Christian was so generous, why should Roque donate 350,000 pounds a year.

"The Lord gives twenty thousand a year, and I pay for it, in the name of the Lord." Christian is more upright, Roque can't be offended, in fact, Owen can't be offended, as long as he can spend money to eliminate the disaster, let Christian pay as much as he wants.

“F***！ Congratulations, Locke, you have a good 'friend'. Owen is very envious, such a dog-legged, rich, and shameless little brother wants everyone.

"Hehe, Chairman, you may not know, in Cape Town before, I was a street thug, I was locked up on Robben Island for committing a crime, it was the Lord who took me out of that hell on Robben Island, if it weren't for the Lord, I might have died silently in the cellar of Robben Island, the Lord not only rescued me from Robben Island, but also gave me money and helped me introduce me to work, I can have today is all given by the Lord, so the Lord can take it at any time." Christian smiled innocently, and he could hear that Christian's words were indeed from the bottom of his heart.

Don't look at Christian's pig face, if you think Christian is a good person, then you are wrong, in the Transvaal, Christian is notoriously fierce and brutal, his construction company, has to change nearly one-tenth of its employees every year, the reason why Christian has no competitors in the Transvaal is not all because of the advantages of human resources.

This aspect cannot be elaborated, and if it is detailed, it will be harmonious.

Therefore, Christian's meekness and gratitude belong only to Roque.

"Yes, one is generosity and kindness, and the other is gratitude, I will be touched by you." Owen was teasing, as for what he thought in his heart, no one knew except himself.

"Don't waste time at the gate all day, go back and prepare, and start building the road between Johannesburg and Ziwei Town as soon as the rainy season is over." Roque found a job for Christian, and this job was handed over to others except Christian, and Roque was really not at ease.

"Don't worry, Lord, I'm ready, work will begin as soon as the rainy season is over, and the railroad between Little Rock and Port Edward has begun now, and I promise to complete it within a year at most." Christian swears that as long as there are no constraints, Christian can still be reassured.

Port Edward is a port located near the mouth of the Zambezi River, and the name was determined by Roque for a simple and straightforward purpose, which is to pat Edward VII's sycophants.
