297 I don't dare

Johannesburg's democratic representative system is just an experiment, and the general democratic representative system in the Transvaal and Orange will not be carried out until after Ade's departure, so now Ade's situation is a bit awkward, as if everyone is looking forward to Ade's departure.

Roque didn't think so.

In fact, Roque really wanted Ade to stay, and after the implementation of democratic representation in the Transvaal and Orange, the integration of the four colonies in southern Africa was unstoppable, and only Ade was the most qualified to become the prime minister of the Union of South Africa.

The first prime minister of the South African Federation in another time and space was Louis Botha, Louis Botha's ability was there, but it was not enough to convince the public, and the British group of the South African Federation could not accept being ruled by a Boer, so after the establishment of the South African Federation, a large number of South African British returned to their homeland, which had a certain impact on the South African Federation.

Louis Botha's approach to the national question is also debatable, the South African Federation is a multi-ethnic country, Louis Botha was influenced by the hardline Jan Smoth, and his attitude towards "minorities" was simple and rude, at that time the South African Federation had 150,000 Indians, nearly 2 million Zulus, and the total population of whites was only about 600,000, and Louis Botha's attitude towards "minorities" laid the bane for the future South African Federation.

In southern Africa in this era, the situation was more complicated, and the Boers in another time and space won the elections in both the Transvaal and Orange, so the Federation of South Africa was formed with the Boers as the main body.

The Chinese in this time and space have replaced the position of the Boers in the Transvaal, coupled with the attitude of Nyasaland and Rhodesia, the future South African Federation will definitely be mainly British, and Louis Botha will no longer be the prime minister, and Ade is the most suitable person for the prime minister.

If, as in another time and space, Ade leaves South Africa and returns to his homeland directly after leaving office, then Roque will have to force Philip as prime minister.

Considering the power of the Matilda family, Philip as prime minister will encounter huge resistance, everyone in southern Africa, including London, may not want a huge family in southern Africa, the current situation in Johannesburg has caused some people to be vigilant, if Philip becomes prime minister again, then the Union of South Africa can change the name of the country to Matilda.

Ade's biggest advantage is that he doesn't have children, so no one will worry that Ade's family will be the only one, which is a situation that everyone is happy to accept.

A huge hidden danger is that London may not want to see a united southern Africa, so Louis Botha can become the prime minister in another time and space, this time and space, it is not so easy for Ade to stay, the British government would rather transfer Ade back to the mainland to be idle, I am afraid that Ade will not let Ade stay in South Africa.

Roque expressed his concern to Ade about the future implementation of democratic representation in the Transvaal and Orange, and hoped that Ade would be aware of the problem and take the initiative to stay.

"Locke, no matter what the future holds, it's Southern Africa's own choice, and you should have confidence in Southern Africa." Ade, in turn, does Roque's ideological work, and does not seem to approve of Roque's concerns.

Roque could only smile bitterly, in front of Ade, Roque definitely couldn't say that he didn't have confidence.

But from the bottom of his heart, Roque really has no confidence in the future of southern Africa, even if there are hundreds of thousands of Chinese in southern Africa in this time and space than in southern Africa in another time and space, Roque still has no confidence.

No way, there are too many pig teammates holding back, the Zulus are enough of a headache, and with the addition of the unenterprising Boers, it's almost hellish difficulty.

"You may not know, but it is because of you that I believe that the future of southern Africa will be better and better, the situation in Nyasaland and Rhodesia is very good, the Transvaal is also getting better and better, plus the Cape, the future of southern Africa will be very promising." Ade's greatest confidence comes from Roque, and Roque is indeed the biggest variable in this era, but Roque alone really can't drag Southern Africa.

"But there are also Natal and Orange, as well as Basutoland, Bechuana, and Eswatini, which will be a burden on Southern Africa, and Southern Africa will not be able to move because of these areas." Roque was not as optimistic as Ade, Basutoland, Bechuana, and Eswatini were all British protectorates, and if a unified southern Africa was to be established, it would be necessary to include these protectorates in southern Africa, which was what worried Roque the most.

Basutoland is the future Lesotho, the Bechuana Protectorate is Botswana, and Eswatini once gained independent status, but Eswatini took the initiative to request to become a British protectorate, so the British government will not give up these areas.

As far as the British government is concerned, it will pack up all these areas and stuff them into the South African Federation, and then the South African Federation will become a hodgepodge, dragged into the abyss by endless internal friction.

"Locke, you are too pessimistic, the human resources of Basutoland, Bechuana and Eswatini are much needed in southern Africa, and the Boers in Natal and Orange will keep whites in the demographic advantage of southern Africa, so these are not problems." Ade still can't get rid of the shackles of habitual thinking, and when it comes to advantages, he seems to have forgotten that Roque is not white either.

"It does seem like an advantage in the short term, but if we take a long-term view, these current advantages will become disadvantages and will be infinitely magnified." Roque was still in a hurry, and it was a bit rude to say this, as if to say that Ade's vision was not long-term enough.

So Ade was very upset, and then Roque was kicked out of the governor's palace without even mixing lunch.

On the way to Henry's house, Roque noticed that there were several political parties along the way, not only the Liberal, the National and Socialist Parties, but even the People's Party founded by Louis Botha and Jan Smoltz to promote propaganda in Pretoria.

Of all the political parties, the Liberal Party still has the greatest advantage, but unlike Johannesburg, the Liberal Party's advantage in Pretoria is not obvious, but fortunately, the other parties have effectively diverted votes, and when the Transvaal implements a democratic representative system, the Liberal Party has no problem winning the election.

Compared with Johannesburg, Pretoria's municipal construction is not inferior, compared with Pretoria during the Transvaal Republic, the area of Pretoria is actually slightly reduced, and the population is not as large as Johannesburg.

If Roque is still the police chief of Johannesburg, it is estimated that motorcycles have been used in police patrols in Johannesburg, Harry Spencer's attitude towards work is a bit negative, and he does not pay attention to the hardware facilities of the police department.

The one-and-a-half-year-old Paula is already running around the ground, and when she sees Roque, she is obviously a little unfamiliar with her godfather, the baby fat on the little guy's face is obvious, and the big light blue eyes look at Roque without blinking for a moment, facing Roque's outstretched hands, Paula puts her hands behind her back, her fingers twisted into twists, and the movement of her body resistance is obvious.

"Hahahaha, baby, leave this guy alone, this is a very nasty person." Henry was glad to see Roque deflated, and threw Paula into the sky with his arms.

Paula liked the game so much that she wasn't ladylike at all when she laughed, and Lacey would probably be upset if she saw it.

"You can't educate Paula like this, it will make Paula estranged from me, I am Paula's godfather, if you do this again, I will let Paula grow up to believe in Taoism." Roque is very envious, Arthur and Gavin are both boys, and Roque actually likes girls very much.

Fortunately, there is still a chance!

"Hehe, don't even think about it, I'm not Gavin's godfather yet, if you dare to make Paula believe in your Taoism, I will dare to send Gavin to be an ascetic!" Henry did not show weakness, ascetics are much more bitter than Taoists, Taoists can get married and have children, ascetics are similar to monks.

"Hahahaha, Phyllis will scratch your face-" Roque is not afraid of this threat, Gavin is Phyllis's heart, if Henry dares to bully Gavin-

Henry probably didn't dare, or Roque would have asked Gavin to get a haircut in the first month.

No, I guess Henry doesn't understand this stalk.

"Alright gentlemen, it's time to eatβ€”" Lacey finally came out to pick up Paula, who was leaning on Lacey's shoulder and peeking at Roque.

Roque grimaced at Paula, who immediately shyly buried her face in Lacey's neck.

At the dinner table, Roque and Henry also talked about Adam Stephen, at this time Roque and Henry's judgment was very consistent, Adam Stephen looked like he was killed and killed, or he was killed and killed, or he deserved it, and it couldn't be suicide anyway.

"It's good that you're not the police chief now, otherwise you'll be annoyed." Henry could only be glad that this had not happened in Pretoria.

No matter what the Johannesburg Police Department proves, anyone who knows the circumstances knows that Adam Stephen was killed by him.

This is almost humiliating for the police, knowing that someone has committed a crime, but they cannot be held accountable, and even the investigation cannot be carried out, and for the next period of time, the police in Johannesburg are estimated to be embarrassed to wear uniforms when they go out, which is really a bit embarrassing.

"You're the boss of all the police in the Transvaal, don't you have any ideas?" Roque mocked Henry mercilessly.

The Johannesburg Police Department is controlled by the Pretoria Police Department, so Roque is right, Henry should indeed have an idea.

"I'm sorry, I don't have any ideas." Henry is not ashamed, even if this kind of thing is estimated at home, no one dares to pursue it.
