141 Serve the tiger
Many people are indifferent to areas that have nothing to do with them, so they don't deliberately know about this news.
Mars's family is in the UK, which means that Mars is a "naked official", and Mars's residence is in Bloemfontein, so Mars doesn't care about the news in Johannesburg.
Mars doesn't care, it doesn't mean that other people don't care either, Austin Pence and Jacob's children have reached school age, and these two are natives of "African", so they still know something about Ziwei School, Austin Pence is better, with the relationship between Austin Pence and Roque, Austin Pence's children will definitely be able to enter Ziwei School, and Jacob's children are not easy to say.
It's not that Jacob is not qualified, as a captain in the colonial army, Jacob's qualifications are definitely enough, the key is that the admission quota of Ziwei Public School is fixed, and every place is very tight now, in principle, Ziwei Public School does not accept students outside the Transvaal.
So Jacob is very envious of Mars, and he doesn't need to be introduced by Roque and Henry, Jacob knows Ziwei School very well: "Mars, you are a blessing in disguise, the places in Ziwei School are very tight, the teachers in this school are all hired from the local area, some teachers even taught at Eton College before they worked in Ziwei School, and General Elvis's grandson went to school in Ziwei School, it is said that the hardware and software facilities of Ziwei School are no worse than those of Eton College in the local area, and even the management of Ziwei School is stricter, I heard that Purple Wing College will open a secondary school next year, and now the secondary school places are being sold out in Cape Town, and some people are even willing to pay a thousand pounds to buy a secondary school place. ”
Jacob told the truth, and Roque laughed silently.
In the next generation of education investment, the British still attach great importance to it, whether it is poor or rich, as long as there is an opportunity, they are willing to send their children to school for education, which leads to the resources of famous schools are very tight, every 1500 boys in the UK, only one can enter Eton College, some nobles in order to let their children enter Eton College, once a baby boy is born, they will go to Eton College with a "birth certificate" to sign up for queues, so that children can be successfully enrolled in school when they are 12 years old.
Compared with the UK, the education resources in southern Africa are more scarce, and the top rich people in Cape will send their children back to study in the UK, and the average middle class can only let their children study in Cape Town, but the quality of teaching in Cape Town's local schools is not good, so education has always been a very serious problem in southern Africa.
At this time, Ziwei School was born, and Roque's strict requirements for Ziwei School made Ziwei School's reputation rise steadily, and even people in Cape Town were willing to send their children to Ziwei School to study.
"It's okay Jacob, if your child is of school age, you can send your child to Ziwei College – I guarantee that all students at Ziwei School will enjoy a education that is no less than Eton College." Roque is generous, and the quota that others can't ask for is a matter of one sentence for Roque.
It's really strange that there is such a strong need for the education of the next generation, but no one in Cape Town is trying to solve this problem.
In fact, the reason is very simple, people who have the ability to solve this problem can also afford to send their children to Eton College to study, so there is no need at all.
And those who can't solve this problem can't solve it even if they want to.
It was only Roque, a traveler, that knew the importance of "popular" education, so Roque founded Ziwei Public School.
"That's just wonderful, thank you, Lord." Jacob was overjoyed, the place at Purple Wing School was rare for Mars, and it was equally rare for Jacob.
"If that's the case, Lord, I'm willing to go to Madagascar." After solving his worries, Mars finally made up his mind.
Just listening to this tone, how does it feel like going to the battlefield!
"Don't worry about Mars, Madagascar is not hell either, compared to the Transvaal, Madagascar is still very good, at least Madagascar is plague-free." Roque tried to say it as easily as possible, and the question depended on whom.
Relative to the colonizers, Madagascar is certainly not hell, or even almost heaven.
But compared to the indigenous people of the colonies, Madagascar under colonial rule was like hell.
"After going to Madagascar, your salary has doubled on the original basis, if you don't want to take your family to Madagascar, you can place your family in Ziwei Town, you can rest assured that the environment of Ziwei Town is in Ziwei Town." Roque continued to promise that the more benefits they promised, the more Austin Pence they would work hard, and when the benefits reached a certain level, Austin Pence and they would not be able to afford to lose all these consequences.
"Ziwei Town is indeed very good, I have been there, I dare to say that in southern Africa, even the mainland, Ziwei Town is super first-class, you will know if you have the opportunity to see it, if you go to Ziwei Town, you will definitely wonder if you have arrived in heaven." Austin Pence has been to the town of Purple and has great respect for the town.
This is normal, everyone who has been to Ziwei Town will have great respect for Ziwei Town.
"Yes, if I hadn't worked in Pretoria, I think I would have settled in Ziwei Town, but I will definitely go to Ziwei Town in the future." Henry also has needs, and in the future, Henry and Lacey's children will also go to school at Ziwei College.
Not to mention that Roque went all out, Ziwei College and Eton College are not much worse than Eton College, even if there is a huge gap between Ziwei College and Eton College, as long as the teaching quality of Ziwei College is acceptable, Henry will choose to send his children to Ziwei College instead of sending them back to the UK mainland.
If you look at the map, you can see that the Transvaal is tens of thousands of kilometers away from the British mainland, and it takes more than half a month to go back and forth by train or reverse ship.
Therefore, if the child is sent back to the UK to study, Lacey will definitely have to go back to the UK to study, which means that Henry will be separated from Lacey and the child for a long time, and Henry will definitely not be willing to do that.
"That's it, tomorrow morning, we'll go to Madagascar." Austin Pence made a decision to stay in Pretoria, Austin Pence They can only stay in the police station, Austin Pence They have been locked up for more than a month, and they don't want to stay in the police station for one more day.
Back at Henry's house, Rochcai and Henry continue to discuss Casimir Perrier.
"It is not easy for the French to colonize Madagascar, that is, the death of the Lanavalona girl, the French have a chance, otherwise it is impossible for the French to annex Madagascar." It is normal that Henry did not look down on the French, and the French did not look down on the British.
Ranavalona was the queen of Radama I, who was the king of the Kingdom of Madagascar, who had largely unified the island of Madagascar at the beginning of the nineteenth century, after which the Kingdom of Madagascar was formed.
At that time, France had already occupied several strongholds along the coast of Madagascar, using them as a springboard to invade the interior of Madagascar.
Madagascar has an area of 590,000 square kilometers, so Britain is all kinds of envy and jealousy of France, and is unwilling to see France monopolize Madagascar, so Britain is like Radama I to provide weapons to support the Malagasy people against the French.
This is another bad debt, the Malagasy people with the weapons provided by the British, it is indeed hard to resist the French invasion, but after the death of Radama I, Queen Lanavalona took power, Lanavalona is very tough on Britain and France, Lanavalona not only hunted down all the missionaries on the Falklands, but also closed all the schools opened by the whites on the Falklands, to completely drive the whites out of Madagascar.
France, of course, was not willing to accept defeat, so it brazenly launched a war.
Unexpectedly, Lanavalona was not a vegetarian, and the French were beaten with a blue nose and swollen face, and finally had to apologize to Ranavalona, and then Lanavalona agreed to continue to send labor to the French and British-controlled islands of Reunion and Mauritius, respectively.
See, the value of labor is so powerful in this day and age.
It was not until after the death of Lanavalona and the accession to the throne of Radama II that France returned to Madagascar to continue the conquest of Madagascar.
Radama II did not have the ability and courage of Ranavalona to withstand the encroachment of France, and France only then obtained most of the Falklands in the form of Lend-Lease.
On May 12, 1863, the Falklands aborigines hanged Radama II, and Prime Minister Rainile Arivorni became the de facto ruler of the Kingdom of Madagascar.
Reinile Arivoni also had a huge gap with Queen Lanavalona, who became a French colony after France defeated Madagascar in the Battle of France and Madagascar in 1885.
In Henry's opinion, France, as a colonizer, was clearly unqualified, and if it had been replaced by England, Madagascar would have been conquered long ago, and it would not have waited until 1885 at all.
"Anyway, now Madagascar is a French colony, but the Malagasy people don't recognize it, so the French colonization of Madagascar is difficult, and this is an opportunity for us." Roque no matter how hard the Malagasy people fought against colonial aggression, as a member of the colonizers, Roque had to do what was in keeping with his identity.
"You're going to help the French suppress the Malagasy people?" Henry was simply surprised, from Roque's standpoint, Roque should try to wreak havoc.
Roque disdains to answer such mentally retarded questions, help?
It would be nice if Roque did not incite the Malagasy people to continue their resistance to the colonial aggression of the French.
Relative to the British, Roque is an expert in this area.
