Cape Town has an amazing mountain called Table Mountain. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Table Mountain is located south of Cape Town's city centre, at 1,086 metres above sea level, and can be seen almost anywhere in Cape Town. The top of the mountain is so flat, like a table specially created by the Creator, that people call it God's table, and the name alone is enough to evoke infinite reverie about it.

It's not that there is no money, Yu Qingfang doesn't want to live that kind of hiding and hiding life anymore.

Coming to Cape Town from Johannesburg, the largest number of Chinese, she decided to enjoy life to the fullest like a bird flying out of a cage, and to enjoy the natural environment and ecological environment of Cape Town, which is far better than her hometown.

Seen Table Mountain from Victoria Harbour.

I saw Table Mountain on the road next to the train station.

I've seen Table Mountain on the downtown street.

See Table Mountain in the distance from the parade ground.

Table Mountain is also seen from the Martin Luther Memorial.

On Nobel Square, I even saw a panoramic view of Table Mountain.

I've wanted to come up and see what's on God's table, but Cape Town is a windy city with strong southwesterly winds that often blow. The way to climb Table Mountain is almost rock climbing in addition to taking the cable car, a few days ago there was a strong wind, the cable car was not open, tourists did not go up the mountain, until today ushered in a sunny day.

The cable car is not cheap, and it costs R160 per person round trip for adults, but entrance fees are included. There is a half-price discount for seniors over 60 years old, but this discount is only available to locals, and foreigners do not enjoy it.

Hogan Twater trotted over to Yu Qingfang, who was taking pictures of Wei Zhen, a white man in his fifties, with a full beard and a pair of sunglasses, if it weren't for the yellowing of his white shirt, which was already wrinkled, and if he was taller, he really looked a bit like the French movie star Jean Reno.

Empty, sunny, and breezy, it is a good day for sightseeing.

Yu Qingfang shoved the camera into his hand, ran over and grabbed Wei Zhen's arm and said with a smile: "Mr. Twatert, please help us take a group photo." ”

"Yes, ma'am. "Hogan can not only roughly understand some Mandarin, but can even communicate simply in Chinese with a Taiwanese Chinese accent.

This was entirely due to the work he did when he was young, when the white South African government had an unusual relationship with the Taiwanese authorities and cooperated in the military industry. There is a R&D team based in South Africa, and he has been assigned by the company to drive for six years in Taiwan.

Although he was just an ordinary driver, after the segregation of '94, his military-industrial complex was taken over by the blacks, and he was fired by the black supervisors.

Since then, South Africa's economic situation has declined rapidly and the unemployment rate has risen rapidly. Wealthy whites have long since left South Africa and emigrated to developed countries in Europe and the United States. Only white people like him who have no money and no skills are left.

As his life became more and more difficult, he began to try to make a living by selling fruit. However, the black men robbed him twice in three days, and the black police did not care.

He couldn't find a high-tech job, not to mention he didn't have the entrepreneurial skills, and even the black-owned banks wouldn't lend to whites. What is even more terrifying is that because his father used to serve as a white militiaman, he captured black terrorists. As a result, he was threatened by many blacks, some of whom even threatened to make him suffer.

Fearing being beaten, he took his family from Johannesburg to South Africa, using the advantage of speaking a little Chinese to get a job in a Taiwanese restaurant, but after a few days, the government issued another decree, blacks began to gradually occupy important positions in the government and large and medium-sized enterprises, and many companies announced that they would only recruit blacks and mixed-race people for fear of being sanctioned by government departments.

The Taiwanese boss was afraid of getting into trouble and fired him without hesitation.

Since then he has been a homeless man, living in the park at night and doing odd jobs during the day.

As the former director of the business office of the credit union, Yu Qingfang did not understand English, but could use a computer to surf the Internet, and in those days when she hid in Joburg's Chinatown, she browsed websites and forums about the Chinese in Cape Town almost every day, and even added more than a dozen QQ groups of the Chinese in Cape Town.

Want to hire a trustworthy South African who knows a little Chinese, several enthusiastic and sympathetic netizens recommended Hogan-Twater, Yu Qingfang did not have the time and conditions to investigate, and determined it online before leaving Joburg. And Hogan Twater also cherishes this hard-won job very much, and is very happy to serve these two rich Oriental ladies.

"Why only buy two tickets?" After taking a group photo, Yu Qingfang looked at the cable car ticket handed over by Hogan with a puzzled expression.

"I'll go up, ma'am, you don't have to worry about safety, there's security up there, it's safe up there. Hogan scratched his head in embarrassment, for fear that the other party would not understand, and said it again at noon that he thought was more standard.

He didn't want to buy an extra ticket or spend an extra money, and Yu Qingfang was very satisfied with the impoverished driver in front of him.

His dedication to his work is reflected in time, and his dedication to his family is reflected in his attitude. He sits in his driver's seat forever these days, even during meals. He was given money to buy decent clothes, and as a result, he gave all the money to his family who had no job and no income.

Yu Qingfang didn't want to hurt his self-esteem, so she smiled slightly: "Okay, you wait in the car, let's go up and take a look and get down." ”

The boss was easier to get along with than expected and was generous.

Hogan felt that he was running from time to time, and secretly made up his mind to work with her for a few years, and when he earned enough money to immigrate with his family, he would leave this "black and white" ghost place, but the other lady didn't have the right eyes, always peeked with strange eyes, and whispered a few words to the boss after reading it.

Wei Zhen did peek at him just now, and after checking the ticket and boarding the cable car, he saw a white man with a high nose and blue eyes in the car, and couldn't help but lean into Yu Qingfang's ear: "Sister Song, I've been inspecting for several days, and I feel that this person is okay." ”

"Knowing people and knowing faces does not know hearts. ”

"Anyway, I think he's quite honest, and the matter of identity can't be delayed any longer, so just have a showdown with him. ”

This is not a trivial matter, what if the other party "fakes the show" and relies on it, Yu Qingfang looked at the blue sea from afar, and said faintly: "Let me think about it again, and look at it again." ”

"Sister, you are different from me, this matter really can't be delayed!"

It can't be delayed any longer, it is really difficult to move an inch in South Africa without a legal identity, let alone other countries that have not concluded extradition treaties with China, Yu Qingfang weighed it and said helplessly: "Okay, have a showdown with him at night." ”

……

If you have a heart-to-mind, you can't play well.

Getting off the table and getting into the new car he just bought, Hogan-Twater still keeps the speed at 90 kilometers per hour, even on the highway where the speed limit is 110-120 kilometers per hour.

Although there are not as many Chinese in Cape Town as in Johannesburg, there are quite a few.

As long as there are many Chinese, Yu Qingfang has no sense of security, and determines the foothold and the store to be opened in a small town more than 40 kilometers away from the city.

The car slowly drove into the garden of a small temporarily rented bungalow, and Hogan ran down to open the back door as he had done a few days ago, waited for the two ladies to get out of the car, then opened the suitcase, and moved the things he bought today into the living room.

"Hogan, don't be busy, sit down and drink saliva. Wei Zhen took out a bottle of Coke from the refrigerator.

"Thank you. ”

"Sit, sit down and talk. ”

The boss was busy packing up his things and preparing to make dinner, but Hogan didn't want to lose his job, so he didn't dare to sit down with a big grin, and said, "Jen, what do you want to know?"

Wei Zhen looked back at Yu Qingfang, who was pretending to be busy, crossed her arms and asked with a smile, "If my sister hadn't hired you, what would you have planned?"

What a problem!

Hogan was confused, and after a long pause, he said with a sad face: "Jane, you know, as long as a little educated black people in this hellish place can find a job relatively easily. At the same time, more and more whites began to lose their jobs, and before 1994, the white unemployment rate was essentially zero.

The blacks didn't even know how to turn on a computer to get into the government, and we were all kicked out! The more blacks came into government, and no one helped us whites, and the blacks only knew how to kick a ball, barbecue, sing, and dance. ”

What a poor fellow.

Wei Zhen touched his chin, looked at him with a smile and said, "If there is an opportunity that can make you a lot of money, will you do it?"

"A lot of money, Jane, don't be kidding, I'm just a driver. ”

"I know you're the driver, I didn't let you rob. ”

These two women were really rich, and she didn't seem to be joking, and Hogan asked in a ghostly manner, "What's that?"

It's important to get down to business, there's no need to go around in circles with him.

Wei Zhen opened the bag, took out stacks of cash from the bag, and said bluntly: "Your wife is dead, and you have to raise three children." If it were me, I would never have watched them sleep on the streets. As long as you marry my sister and all this money is yours, your children will be able to live a much better life than they are now. ”

This woman is crazy!

Hogan was confused and asked, "Married?"

Yu Qingfang didn't want to cause a misunderstanding, so she couldn't help but look back and said: "Mr. Twater, I like this beautiful country and want to work and live in South Africa, so I need a legal identity to stay in South Africa, do you understand what I mean?"

If a foreigner marries South Africa, he or she can automatically become a permanent resident of South Africa and obtain a work permit only by obtaining a marriage certificate.

As the most developed and wealthy country in Africa, South Africa is undoubtedly a strong attraction for foreign immigrants. Many people take advantage of some loopholes in the immigration law to defraud South African permanent residency and work permits by applying for fake marriage certificates, and a big news broke the year before last.

The "husband" of a 31-year-old South African single woman suddenly came to her home one day and asked for a divorce from her. It was only then that the woman realized that she had become the "wife" of a stranger without knowing it.

The 37-year-old Nigerian "husband", holding a marriage certificate issued by the Ministry of Home Affairs, claimed to have been married to her since 2000. Now he wants to get out of the marriage because his mother in Nigeria is seriously ill and he is returning home.

The woman was taken aback and went to the Ministry of the Interior, looking for media exposure, and later found out that it was the Ministry of the Interior, which had the authority to manage immigration and passports, who had "married" her without her knowledge.

As the investigation deepened, the South African Ministry of Home Affairs had to admit that in the past three years, the Ministry's staff had processed a total of 3,387 fake marriage certificates. More than 2,000 marriage licenses have been cancelled, and more than 1,000 others are under review. Last month, the Home Office asked all single South African women to confirm their marital status, and a further 779 cases of fake marriages were detected at once......

Yu Qingfang was very serious and serious, with a little apprehension and expectation in her eyes.

Wei Zhen pointed to the cash of about 20,000 rand on the coffee table, with an expression of reluctance to have someone willing.

Hogan reacted suddenly, looked at Yu Qingfang, and then at Wei Zhen, hesitated for about two minutes, and said without self-deprecation: "I want to ...... I thought, I don't think there's a reason for me to refuse. ”

"I'm going to get a marriage certificate tomorrow, and you'll be my brother-in-law from tomorrow, do you know what your brother-in-law means?"

"Yes. ”

"Know what?"

"Ms. Song's nominal husband, it is my honor to serve the two of them. ”

As the saying goes, money makes the devil grind!

Yu Qingfang finally breathed a sigh of relief, walked over and pushed the money in front of him: "Mr. Waterward, I believe in your person, these are all yours, go back to see the children as soon as possible, and come over tomorrow morning to pick us up to get the certificate." By the way, this is only the first one, and I will give you another 30,000 yuan after a few years of divorce. ”

It's just a fake marriage, and what about deceiving the black government.

Hogan-Twater, who hated the black government, didn't feel any pressure on this, but after thinking about it, he still stopped and asked, "Ma'am, you don't need me anymore, you only need a marriage certificate?"

Fake marriage is risky, Yu Qingfang doesn't want to do fake drama with a white man who is both strange and has no feelings, hiring him as a driver is just an excuse, fake marriage with him, obtain a legal identity through fake marriage, and change his name and surname reasonably and legally is the ultimate goal.

But when it comes to the end, I can't open that mouth, the person in front of me is really good, and he is indeed worthy of sympathy.

You can't be indecisive on this issue, Wei Zhen was about to help her speak, Yu Qingfang suddenly said: "Mr. Twatert, after you get the license, you are still our driver, and I will continue to pay you according to the previous agreement." ”

"Thank you ma'am, thank you for this opportunity, I will not let you down. ”

Be good to others, others can be good to you, not to mention that he is the future "husband".

Yu Qingfang patted Wei Zhen's arm, who was about to speak, and picked up a bag of food bought in the supermarket: "Bring these to the children, drive slower on the road." ”

It's really time to run, and it's hard to come and go.

Hogan Twater was so excited that he wanted to cry, so he hurriedly controlled his emotions and bowed deeply, got into the car with money and a large bag of food, opened the window and waved his hand, turned onto the highway and gradually disappeared from sight.

"Sister, you shouldn't have given the money first, what if he runs away, what if he even drives the car for us?"

"If you run, you don't have to worry about it. Yu Qingfang believed that Wei Zhen could understand what she meant, and she leaned on her shoulder and added: "Don't worry about the car, there is insurance." ”
