In Phyllis's words, Roque was doing a great job at the time.

As Roque walked towards the muzzle, Phyllis almost fainted, and her heart was beating so hard that it almost jumped out of her throat.

When Roque snatched the gun and smashed the bullets in Harry Alsop's face one by one, Phyllis felt alive again, and if something happened to Roque, Phyllis really didn't know what to do.

Harry Alsop is soon taken away by the guards, and what awaits him is brutal retaliation from the Metropolitan Police.

Think about Harry Alsop's questioning of the London Police Department some time ago, and now that it is in the hands of the London Police, the Police Department will definitely not let go of Harry Alsop easily.

"It's amazing Locke, you're so calm in the face of danger—" Victor Foster complimented Roque.

"This pistol is made by the Nyasaland Arsenal, and when the safety is in the closed position, even if the trigger is pulled, it cannot be fired, which is designed to avoid the gun from misfiring, but I didn't expect it to save my life now." Roque handed the Ruger P03 to Victor Foster, who estimated that Victor Foster had never seen such an advanced weapon.

The British seem to have been using revolvers all the time, all the way up to the time of World War II.

Victor Foster's focus is clearly different from Roque's: "There is still an arsenal in Nyasaland? ”

It seems to have leaked out, but it doesn't matter, it's not a secret to the British government, and if the War Office doesn't even have this ability, it can almost be dismantled.

So Roque confessed: "In the past, in order to produce Martini Henry rifles, Mr. Cecil Jr. purchased some machines from the Royal Small Arms Factory. ”

"Martini Henry is indeed a good gun—" Victor Foster immediately forgot about it, since the machine was purchased from the Royal Small Arms Factory, then there should be no problem.

The day after the banquet, Roque and Phyllis left London on the ship "Princess Eleni" to return to the Transvaal.

The "Princess Elenie" cruise ship belongs to the Cape Viking Shipping Company, which is a mixed passenger and cargo ship, and Roque and his party bought almost half of the cabin, and returned to the Transvaal with Roque, in addition to Roque's guard, including various talents that Christian had collected in London during this time.

Roark still attaches great importance to talent, mainly in engineering, and all kinds of engineers, designers, university teachers, and even college graduates who have just left school, as long as they are willing to go to the Transvaal, Roque will give them a satisfactory salary.

The biggest one was Andrew Harold, dean of the Department of Civil Engineering at the University of Glasgow, who is now supposed to be the former dean, who resigned in a fit of rage after failing to run for chancellor.

Roque promised Andrew Harold that he would build a comprehensive university in Nyasaland that would be no less than the University of Glasgow, and then he asked Andrew Harold to go to Nyasaland.

The days on the ship are actually very boring, and Roque can use this time to discuss the subject setting of Nyasaland University with Andrew Harold.

"The Department of Civil Engineering is indispensable, the University of Glasgow has the earliest Department of Civil Engineering and Shipbuilding in the UK, and now it is also the best, I brought a few people, all of them are senior faculty members of the Department of Civil Engineering, and each of them can be professors, but unfortunately there are too few professors, so they are also talented-" Andrew Harold has his own demands, dare to run for president, Andrew Harold must also have his own lineage, and now Andrew Harold has left with his lineage, The Department of Civil Engineering at the University of Glasgow suffered heavy losses.

"Civil engineering is really necessary, the reconstruction of the Transvaal and Orange is not yet complete, Nyasaland and Rhodesia are both developing rapidly, and there is a strong need in this regard; I've built a campus on the shores of Lake Malombe in Nyasaland, and I've even started working with some professors, and when you arrive in Nyasaland, you'll be ready to start working as soon as you arrive. "Roque had been preparing for a long time, and now it was finally time for it to bear fruit.

"Some professors!" Andrew Harold was shocked that there were still very few professors in those days.

Under the British, Australian and New Zealand systems, there is usually only one full professor in each field, and no matter how outstanding the contribution and qualifications are, the others can only become associate professors at most, and senior lecturers are the highest professional titles of most university teachers.

For example, at the University of Glasgow, the Department of Civil Engineering has only one full professor, Andrew Harold, with varying numbers of associate professors, to support the entire Department of Civil Engineering.

The purpose of the tenure system is to ensure that the academic research of professors will not be constrained and troubled by politics, business and funding sources, and in American universities, new teachers have a period of 6 to 7 years to examine the academic level and professional ethics of teachers, and then the school decides whether to award tenured professors according to academic qualifications.

The University of Nyasaland will definitely implement a tenured professor system in the future, such as Andrew Harold, as well as Abu, and even Douglas, who has turned to administration, is expected to become tenured professors at the University of Nyasaland in the future, which is an affirmation of their ability and an honorary title.

Of course, a generous annual salary is indispensable, which is a reward for their contribution.

"Sounds good." Andrew Harold does not object to Roque's arrangement, and the universities in the UK are strict and almost cruel in this regard, and many senior lecturers obviously have the qualifications and level of individual professors, but because of the constraints of the system, they cannot be professors for a lifetime, which is unfair to them.

"Don't worry about funding, Professor Abu earned 250,000 pounds in only half a year this year for one of his research results last year, and the University of Glasgow doesn't have so much funding for a year." Roque was proud that the Russo-Japanese War was now nearing its end, and that the Imperial Japanese and Russian Empires were negotiating in Portsmouth, England, under the mediation of American President Theodore Roosevelt.

The war caused huge losses to both the Japanese Empire and the Russian Empire, and the two countries have run out of oil until now, and even Britain is unwilling to give loans to both sides, for fear that the two countries will not be able to repay them in the future.

Russia lost all rights in the Far East in the war, and Japan did not win, they were given privileges, but they did not receive the final reparations as in the war between the Qing Empire, and thus they were burdened with heavy foreign debts that would take at least ten years to pay off.

Or ten years can't be paid off, if Japan can't turn over with the help of the First World War.

The British government was the ultimate winner, and through the Russo-Japanese War, it completely achieved its goal, that is, to curb Russia's expansion in the Far East, and to suppress the momentum of Japan's rise, becoming the largest creditor of both Japan and Russia.

The RAND Bank was also a winner, and like the British government, the RAND Bank was a bet on both sides and was now a co-creditor of the Japanese Empire and the Russian Empire.

Roque also got what he wanted, and throughout the Russo-Japanese War, the Transvaal and Nyasaland dumped nearly a million pounds of goods on the warring parties, and the Nyasaland Arsenal took the opportunity to complete the hardware upgrade, and even the production line of the Martini Henry rifle was sold to the Japanese at a much higher price than when it was bought, and the price of a new line was about the same as the price of a new line.

During the war, the medical school sent a medical detachment to the Far East, and nearly 40 teachers and students went to the front line in the Far East to really participate in the war and obtain a lot of valuable first-hand information.

After returning to Ziwei Town, Dean Colin Bellamy, who led the team, began to write a book on battlefield rescue and prepared to introduce a course on battlefield first aid at the medical school.

This subject may become the biggest feature of the medical school in the future.

In addition to these benefits, even greater benefits come from farms around Johannesburg.

Farmers around Johannesburg also made a lot of money through the Russo-Japanese War, and according to the RAND Bank, nearly half of the farmers had already paid off their loans, and the Transvaal Agricultural Association was in contact with the Nyasaland Tractor Factory to order tractors from the Nyasaland Tractor Factory at a favorable price.

Canned Rhodesia became the most popular product in the Far East, and in the words of Xiao Si in the telegram: even if the potatoes were canned and sent to the Far East, they would become a hot and sought-after commodity.

Sure enough, as soon as the cannon rang out, there were ten thousand taels of gold.

"250,000 pounds!" Andrew Harold was simply shocked, 250,000 pounds is not a small amount, and the annual income of the University of Glasgow is all combined, which is just that.

The University of Glasgow was founded in 1451 and has a history of 450 years, how long has the Nyasaland Medical School been established?

Even for Professor Abu, Andrew Harold had not the slightest impression of the name, having never heard of it before.

Suddenly, Andrew Harold is full of yearning for Nyasaland, where he doesn't know how many secrets are hidden.

When Roque and Andrew Harold were chatting passionately, Phyllis took Gavin to sit at the table next to him and eat fruit.

Mainly Phyllis was eating, Gavin enthusiastically said that he wanted to taste it, but the unscrupulous mother resolutely refused to give it, making Gavin so angry that he cried.

Then an elf and eccentric child came running over and handed Gavin the apple in his hand to eat, and was very careful to break Gavin a little.

Phyllis was greatly impressed, touched the little guy's black hair and asked very kindly, "What a little angel, where is your mother?" ”

Gavin grinned and didn't speak, and Roque shuddered.

The little guy is Arthur, he and Gavin are brothers, and this is the first time they have met.
