The question of population ratio is very wonderful, and the phrase "quantitative change causes qualitative change" is as valid as it is in population, and why the Transvaal Republic targeted the British in the first place is because after the discovery of the Rand gold mine, the British population in the Transvaal Republic is increasing rapidly, and the Boers have no population source, and the population growth rate cannot catch up with the British, so the Transvaal Republic will restrict the British from the policy, and eventually trigger the Second Boer War.

The current Transvaal also has this trend, and the population of Chinese descent is also increasing rapidly, much faster than Ade expected, Roque doesn't know if Ade has noticed this problem, thinking that if Ade notices, it should not make Roque send people to Johannesburg so frantically.

What Roque can do now is try to make the Chinese look harmless, so that even if others notice the growing Chinese population in Johannesburg, they won't be too vehemently opposed to it.

So even if you get people to the Transvaal, you don't put them in Pretoria, but send them to farms outside Johannesburg, or to the Crocodile Bay reservoir far from Johannesburg, to delay anyone else's attention as much as possible.

To be honest, Roque doesn't know how long it can be delayed, and of course Roque hopes that it will be as late as possible.

"My mother built an ancestral hall at home, invited the ancestral tablets to Johannesburg, and my father went to the ancestral hall every day to ask for sin, in fact, the ancestral tomb incense was not broken, my family originally had a few acres of land, when I came to Johannesburg, I gave them to the villagers of the same clan, please don't forget to worship their ancestors during the New Year's holidays, in fact, even if they are not given, the ancestral tomb incense will not be broken, after all, it is also their ancestors-" Done's words made Roque very pleased, fortunately, Johannesburg did not have the "ancestral hall".

The ancestral hall originated in the Western Han Dynasty and was damaged by Wei Zhongxian in the Ming Dynasty.

Roque's purpose in helping the Chinese is definitely not for the sake of ancestral halls, at best, it is to open up living space for the Chinese, and at worst, it is also for himself, after all, Johannesburg needs a certain number of Chinese to ensure Roque's interests.

As for whether the increase in the number of Chinese will cause a qualitative change, that is a matter for the future, and Roque does not consider this issue now.

"What really gives my dad and my mother a headache is the weather, our hometown, it snows heavily in winter, Johannesburg can't snow a few times a year, my dad said that God forced us to work, we can't be idle all year round, in fact, it's okay, do more and get more money-" Done's words almost made Roque laugh, Johannesburg is a savannah climate, not to mention that there are not a few snows all year round, and it is rare to get snow for ten or eight years, and the experience of the Chinese about the weather is useless in Johannesburg, a southern hemisphere, a northern hemisphere, strictly speaking diametrically opposed.

In 2012, Roque saw reports of snow in Johannesburg, which caused such a sensation because the last time it snowed in Johannesburg was in 2007 and the last time it was in 1981.

As a result, this is evidence of global warming, as the frequency of snow in Johannesburg has been reduced from 26 to 5 years.

"Then there has to be a degree, your family's more than 2,000 acres of farm, working all year round can exhaust people to death, it's almost enough, you should hire people to hire people, you should rest and rest, and you can't finish the work." When Roque said this, he actually really felt sorry for the Chinese, according to Roque's understanding of the Chinese, if it is not mandatory, there will really be Chinese who are busy all year round and will not rest for a day.

In the final analysis, the Chinese people's love for land is because there are too many people and too little land, and there are 450 million Chinese guarding 1.8 billion mu of arable land.

No, at this time, there must be no 1.8 billion mu, at least the Great Northern Wilderness has not been developed, and the land in the northwest cannot be calculated, coupled with serious land annexation, the vast majority of Chinese will not be able to get an acre of their own land in their lifetime, so the Chinese in the Qing Kingdom are really pitiful, even if they are the landlords of the Qing Kingdom, their lives are not as good as the farmers in Johannesburg.

At the very least, the farmers of Johannesburg did not have excessive taxes, and article 9 of the DPA stipulated that no taxes to pay for the war would be imposed on the two newly conquered territories.

This provision also applies to Johannesburg.

"I can't rest, my father can't wait to live in the stable, he goes to plow the land as soon as the morning dawns, he is so tired that his hands are full of blood blisters and he is reluctant to rest, my mother drove everyone out to work, and two sisters-in-law cooked more than 100 people's meals, my grandmother is now sixty years old, and she can't do physical work, so she carries a bench to pull weeds in the vegetable field, and it is a day to pull it out, and my sister-in-law has just come out of confinement, so she carries the doll to work in the field - in my grandmother's words, in the past, in my hometown, the whole family only had two acres of vegetable land, and I didn't have to do it if I wanted to-" Tang En unconsciously reddened his eyes, For many Chinese, letting them rest is more uncomfortable than killing them.

It is indeed very hard, but it is precisely because of this diligence that the Chinese can stand in Johannesburg, and when the Boers are eating and waiting, they can build their farms on their own and flourish, and every time the city government meets, the Minister of the Interior, Blake Nelson, will sigh at the diligence of the Chinese, and Ade may not know how many Chinese there are in the Transvaal, but the officials in Johannesburg must know.

So why don't officials in Johannesburg report to Ade?

The Chinese are a group that officials will not hate no matter what country they are, and what they really hate the Chinese is a group with a similar social status to the Chinese, because the existence of the Chinese will form the most direct competition with them, and if the competition is not enough, then there is a reason to hate it.

In Johannesburg, the people who hated the Chinese the most were the Boers, because they would be ashamed of themselves in front of the hard-working Chinese.

The reality is very simple, if there are no Chinese in Johannesburg, then Johannesburg will have to rely on the Boers to develop the farms around Johannesburg, so that the Boers can make more demands and get more benefits.

Because of the existence of the Chinese, the farms that originally belonged to the Boers are gone, and the opportunities that originally belonged to the Boers are gone, the more diligent the Chinese are, the more they reflect the laziness of the Boers, and the more prosperous the Chinese farms, the more they reflect the depression of the Boer farms, so it is a hell that the Boers can like the Chinese.

"Buy a few more horses—" What else could Roque say, he could only be proud to be in this group.

"I bought a lot, the family now has more than ten horses, more than 20 cows, more than 400 sheep, and more than a dozen pigs and countless chickens, eggs can be collected two or three hundred a day, before my mother was reluctant to eat eggs, want to sell them for money, as a result, more and more eggs, when the association has not been established, can not be sold and eaten, the children in the family eat eggs to vomit, vomit and be beaten, the elders are most unsightly is to waste food, dare to waste food will be beaten - now my father is no longer ploughing, ploughing out can not be finished, My father led his brothers to plant trees at home, and according to my father's wishes, he first planted a circle around the farm, and it was estimated that it would take several years to plant a circle. Don almost burst into tears, compared to the old days, life now is truly heaven.

2,000 acres, which is almost eight square kilometers, is 12 kilometers in circumference even if it is a square piece of land, and if you plant a tree in one meter, it is 12,000 trees.

What's more, according to the habits of the Chinese, it is probably impossible to plant a tree per meter, and you have to plant a dozen or twenty trees horizontally to be considered a little interesting.

Don't forget it, Don't forget it, this idea of Don's father is estimated to not be completed in three or five years, even if he plants a hundred trees a day-

If you have 100 trees a day, you can really complete 100 or 200,000 trees in three or five years!

What does it feel like to have hundreds of thousands of trees in your home?

You can make a fortune just by selling trees!

Roque no longer has to worry about whether the Chinese can stand on his feet, if he can't get rich like this, it is really unreasonable.

——

Phyllis, who was dressed in a riding costume, made Roque a little surprised again.

In the past, Phyllis gave Roque the feeling of being lively and cute, but now she is heroic, and in this era, there are not many women who can give Roque such a feeling.

"Let's go, where are we going?" Phyllis was in high spirits, and as long as she was with Roque, she didn't care about the destination at all.

"Where do you want to go?" Roque asks for Phyllis's opinion, and as long as he is with Phyllis, Roque doesn't care about the destination.

"Shall we go hunting?" Phyllis's hobbies are definitely different from those of ordinary girls, and it was only then that Roark noticed that Phyllis was carrying a shotgun next to her saddle.

"Okay!" Roque didn't bring a shotgun, but it didn't matter, Roque and Don both carried Lee Enfield, which is standard in the Johannesburg Police Department, and all police officers went out with Lee Enfield, whether they brought a pistol or not, and Lee Enfield was much easier to use than a shotgun.

As a result, it was said that he was hunting, and he left Ziwei Town for more than ten kilometers, and not a single prey was found.

Instead, I met a gold mine security guard returning from patrol, and I don't know how far they ran, and several horses were camels with oryx.

Roque remembered that Phyllis had said that oryx had the best tongue.

So all the oryx tongues became Phyllis's "trophies", and the captain of the patrol knew that Phyllis liked to eat the tongue of the oryx, and said on the spot that the tongue patrol of the oryx would be all covered in the future.

After all, many of the patrol members' children attend Ziwei Public School.

The tongue of the oryx was not enough, and Don asked the patrol to get another one for another one, and then Roque and the others began their picnic.

In fact, it is barbecue, when he left Ziwei Town, Zack brought enough cooking utensils and spices, during this time, Zack asked Marven every day for cooking, and now the cooking skills are also very good, the barbecue is almost better than the blue, and Phyllis's two maids are busy together, Roque and Phyllis are very satisfied.

"It's still a delicious barbecue, Principal Sophia is good at everything, but the management is too strict, Dunnis is very worried every day, many of the dishes he makes are dark dishes in the eyes of Principal Sophia, this can't be eaten, that can't be eaten, if Principal Sophia is asked to decide the menu, it is estimated that the school is salad and steak every day, which makes Dennis so angry that he wants to resign-" Phyllis and Roque are together, and the topic is inseparable from the girls' school.

Dennis is Chinese, a junior of Marvin, who just arrived in Johannesburg last year.

Dennis does not have the surname Deng, the reason why he is called this name is because in Greek, "Dunnis" is the god of wine, so Dennis uses this name.

Like many Chinese in Johannesburg, Marvin and his two apprentices both own farms near Johannesburg, and they have opened an "City Garden Restaurant" in Johannesburg, which serves not only Western but also traditional Oriental dishes.

After the restaurant opened, the business was so good that it became the best restaurant in Johannesburg in a short period of time, and now the "City Garden Restaurant" is the official restaurant of the Johannesburg City Council and municipal units, and Marvin has become a leader in the Johannesburg dining scene.

As early as Cape Town, Marven contacted his brothers who were still in the Qing Kingdom, so since last year, more and more excellent chefs have come to Johannesburg from the Qing Kingdom to carry forward the traditional Chinese cuisine in Johannesburg.

It was against this backdrop that Dennis came to Johannesburg.

"Strict management is a good thing, many people have nothing to achieve, is because of lack of education, do not understand the rules, in this era, sometimes do not follow the rules often work well, can even be regarded as imaginative, but in the long run, or abide by the rules, people who receive more education are more likely to succeed." The more he interacts with people like Louis Botha and Ade, the more Roque understands what it means to plan before he acts.

To put it bluntly, if you want to mix well, Roque himself will become a cunning old fritter, and those upright boys who are in a hurry will eventually be killed by the cunning old fritters.

"Huh!" Phyllis disagreed with Roque's words, but the meaning of the objection was still obvious.

"Don't feed the big guys and eat too much meat, a good dog is about to be fed into a pig by you." Phyllis fed the tongue of the antelope that she couldn't eat to the big guy, and Roque couldn't help but remind.

Phyllis is indeed good at eating, the tongue of the oryx is a famous delicacy, Phyllis can't finish it, she can give it to the policemen who are roasting the leg of mutton, and the big guy is enough to gnaw on the bones.

The policemen don't eat the tongue of the oryx, compared with the roast leg of mutton, the meat is too little, Buck's technique of roasting the leg of lamb is very good, not only the seasoning brush is even, the heat is also just right, the outside is charred and the inside is tender and oily, and after baking a layer, it is put in a porcelain dish from the Qing Kingdom with a blade, and the maid sends it to the police, and the carriage carries wine and beer, and the police eat very happily.

Roque is also very happy, the delicious barbecue and cold wine are a perfect match, the delicate and lovely girlfriend by his side, and the loyal and reliable brother behind him, at this moment Roque finally left all those bad things behind.

It didn't take long to be happy, and the day after returning to Johannesburg, Roque received a telegram that Ida was coming.
