The cruise ship put Wei Kun in Port Sudan and carried Wang Mingshan to continue south. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoPort Sudan is on a hillside, standing in the harbor and looking up, you can see all kinds of fairly modern buildings from low to high occupying half of the hillside. In this way, the city seems to extend to the end of the field of vision, to the end of the world.

As Wei Kun's car drove up the highway and reached the highest point in the city, Wei Kun said to himself with self-deprecation, "Welcome back to Africa!" "High up in the city, a wasteland unfolds, with only a lone railroad stretching out into the wilderness. Every time he saw the railway, Wei Kun admired the builders' ability to overcome the terrible environment and complete an industrial-age project in such a wilderness.

After taking the train and crossing the barren and barren mountains along the Red Sea coast, and entering the desert area, you can begin to see some traces of plants. As we approached the river, forests began to appear on both sides of the river, including poplar forests that Wei Kun was mobilizing locals to try to plant. Large tracts of alfalfa fields have been reclaimed. With alfalfa as fodder, you can also see some cattle and sheep from the train. It can be seen that these areas have not yet been able to move into more efficient cultivation areas.

By the time the train arrived in Khartoum, there were more and more buildings in the countryside. The earthworm manure program that Wei Kun personally ordered to promote, many of those buildings were cattle pens, and many were earthworm farms. Vermicompost is a great way to improve Sudan's barren land, allowing more and more crops to be grown on the banks of the Nile.

Wei Kun was well aware of what had happened in the Sultan, so his mood was very low. Walking around Europe, whether it is the industry in London or the museums in Florence, Wei Kun feels the importance of the accumulation of civilization. Although the East African administrative region has begun to have its own accumulation, there have even been great changes. But this change is almost insignificant compared to those of civilized countries. When Wei Kun arrived in Africa, he really wanted to make a career, but now he suddenly felt that he was completely out of motivation.

"Secretary Wei, this is a payslip, please sign it." The secretary took some slips and handed them to Wei Kun.

Wei Kun glanced listlessly, and his spirit was shocked. However, he did not sign the order immediately, but said to the secretary: "Put it here first, I have time to sign." ”

After the secretary went out, Wei Kun took the documents and studied them carefully. The reason why Wei Kun is so energetic is that his monthly salary is more than 200,000 East African dollars, and the exchange ratio between East African dollars and RMB is 10:1, which also means that Wei Kun's monthly salary is more than 20,000 yuan. Previously, this was the annual salary of two salespeople. Now, although the wage level in China is rising rapidly, Wei Kun can earn a year's salary of ordinary workers in a month.

These payrolls are nearly half a year's salary after the fall of Wei Wenrui and the self-issuance of its own currency in East Africa presided over by Wang Mingshan and Wei Kun. Wei Kun found himself a 'millionaire', and even by the standards of the renminbi, he was by no means poor. Daddy Wei Ze gave each of his children, including Wei Kun, 500,000 yuan to buy a house, as far as Wei Kun knew, this had probably wiped out Wei Ze's savings over the years and Wei Ze's meritorious bonus. And if Wei Kun himself continues to work in East Africa for two years, he will be able to save 500,000 yuan himself.

That feeling of happiness disappeared without a trace, and Wei Kun found that although he was a rule-maker, the words that there must be a brave man under the reward were quite applicable to Wei Kun himself. After feeling his emotions, Wei Kun smiled bitterly. Fame and fortune are indeed powerful driving forces that can drive human beings forward.

As soon as the mood changed, so did the action. Wei Kun once again devoted himself to his work, and the most important project in East Africa at the moment is the East African railway network. In Wang Mingshan's plan, East Africa is now engaged in large-scale grain production in order to provide a food foundation for large-scale railway construction in a few years. It is impossible for hundreds of thousands of road construction workers to go hungry to build roads and buy food from other places, and the high cost is unbearable.

Thinking about it this way, Wei Kun became more and more admired by his boss Wang Mingshan. If Wei Kun is the head of the East African Administrative Region, he can also have a lot of ideas, but let him distinguish his own priorities, he will definitely not be as good as Wang Mingshan.

Wang Mingshan didn't know that his number one subordinate Wei Kun was praising his boss Wang Mingshan in his heart, even if he really knew, Wang Mingshan probably didn't have any interest in dealing with it. Britain has begun to withdraw its troops, but not on a large scale. Moreover, the British side is said to be still negotiating with the Boers, and according to the information given by the British, the reaction of the Boers is not as good as the British expected.

The British had to negotiate with the Boers, and the East African administrative regions had to negotiate with the Zulu kingdom. Yucun, the king of the Zulu Kingdom, didn't know what medicine he had taken wrong, so he actually asked Wang Mingshan to negotiate with him, and Yucun himself repeatedly claimed to the envoys sent by Wang Mingshan that the Zulu Kingdom needed a lot of aid and support. In the face of this attitude of the Zulu Kingdom, thinking of the tenacity of the Boer people, the angry Wang Mingshan wanted to scold his mother.

After settling down, Wang Mingshan drank tea and analyzed the current situation. The social form of the Zulu Kingdom, especially the internal sense of identity, is too weak. The strong sense of national identity with the Boers is one heaven and one earth. Not to mention the Zulus, the Boers were so strong in their identity-based that the British could not hold on. If the Liberation Army of the Republic of China had made a move, it would have been able to deal with the Boers. But that was not through a stronger sense of identity or willpower, but on technology far superior to that of the Boers.

Thinking of this, his thoughts returned to the side of the Min Dynasty. It seems that the North American war has reached its final stage, and just yesterday, Wang Mingshan received a briefing against a very high-ranking person like him. The fleet of battleships escorting Wang Mingshan to Britain turned westward after Wang Mingshan arrived in Britain, crossing the North Atlantic to North America. The battleship formation swept along the east coast of the United States, sinking a large number of American warships and ships. The fact that the coastal strongholds of the United States survived with the help of the navy and were swept away by the Chinese battleship fleet was probably the last straw on the shoulders of the Yankees.

"After the war, East Africa will probably be worthless." Wang Mingshan muttered to himself in his heart. The Republic of China had nearly 20 million square kilometers of land in North America, almost no different from the Asian part. There are still vast plains in that part of North America, and even if 100 million immigrants pass, they will not be crowded at all. With a population of 800 million in the Republic of China and 100 million young and strong in North America, the land pressure on the mainland of rapidly urbanizing Asia can be solved immediately. Unless it is a strong mandate from the central government, such as the East African railway network that Governor Visé has already promised. Except for the government's coercion, there was probably no citizen of the Republic of China who would consider this part of East Africa for a certain period of time.

However, Wang Mingshan did not have the slightest self-pity, and he had seen a lot of things that made everyone's eyes fall to the ground after the incident. The human heart is the most difficult thing to grasp, and East Africa seems to be unpopular, but some people are interested in such an unpopularity. And East Africa doesn't really need so many Chinese immigrants at this stage.

These future imaginations are a kind of spice for Wang Mingshan, and after the imagination of the glorious future of the Republic of China has restored his emotions, Wang Mingshan once again put his thoughts back into the trouble in front of him. In fact, the key now is the ownership of the Rand Gold Mine. Now that the Boers were driven away by the British, the East African administrative region took full control of the Rand region. From the point of view of the predator that the Boers accepted, they would probably have to admit that the Chinese had gotten the Rand gold. If things were to come to this point, there would be no need for the Boers to be killed in the East African administrative region.

When Wang Mingshan reflected on it these days, he found that the stubborn will to fight displayed by the Boers made him feel very uneasy. Especially at a time when the Republic of China has not yet been able to devote a large number of troops to annihilate the Boers, if the Boers really make a move against the East African administrative region, Wang Mingshan will have to endure considerable losses.

After sorting this out, Wang Mingshan felt that it was best to send someone to negotiate with the Boers to see if the Boers accepted the result. The Boers made many demands when they were in possession of the Rand gold mines, and they kept making more and more demands. Their insatiable behavior angered not only the British, but also the Chinese. Now Britain occupies a number of diamond mining areas, and China occupies gold mining areas. The Boers were now to be beaten back to their original state of being an agrarian state. At least Wang Mingshan himself was not the slightest doubt that the Boers would compromise. There is an old Chinese saying that it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to simplicity.

After the negotiators were dispatched, Wang Mingshan continued his immediate goal of preparing for the East African railway network. Portugal was a weak state, and although the Portuguese had established a fortress in Angola hundreds of years earlier, it was in accordance with the spirit of the Berlin Conference on the partition of Africa. Control over African colonies must be based on 'effective control'. In other words, 'whoever has a big fist and a hard fist will have a turf'. Wang Mingshan, of course, hopes to be able to seize Angola and prepare for the trans-African railway line. If he can accomplish this feat during his tenure, Wang Mingshan will be able to establish his reputation for the rest of his life before he goes to Cyprus to manage finance.

To Wang's surprise, they soon came into contact with the Boer government-in-exile. The British drove the Boer government out of Pretoria, but failed to get them to surrender. To Wang Mingshan's surprise, the Boers agreed to give up ownership of the Rand Gold Mine. But they made a claim to reclaim Pretoria. As the capital of the Boers, the abandonment of Pretoria would be tantamount to negating all the efforts of the Boers for a hundred years.

Wang Mingshan didn't believe that the Boers could really be so honest. People's hearts will never be satisfied forever, and the huge benefits brought by the Rand gold mine have made the Boers dare to argue with the British, will they choose to succumb to the feet of China after this defeat?

Although according to the moral standards of the Chinese, Wang Mingshan actually wanted to agree to the demands of the Boers. But his reason eventually prevented this from happening, and Wang Mingshan coldly told the Boer government-in-exile that China and Britain had reached a decision on the situation in southern Africa. Now that the two powers have come to a consensus, the best option for the Boers is to accept the resolution and acknowledge reality.

Wei Ze learned the news three days after Wang Mingshan's report arrived in Beijing. In fact, such news should not have been sent to Wei Ze at all, and this kind of news that is not counted in stages has nothing to do with the grand strategic decision of the Republic of China. Even though the Rand Gold Mine was very important, it was of high strategic value to the Min Dynasty. But the inability to continue mining the Rand gold mine in the short term is not a problem, and the DPRK Military Commission already has a 'comprehensive settlement plan' for southern Africa, which is about the same extent as the North American war. If the problem reaches the stage where it is unnecessary, after the end of the North American war, troops will be mobilized to solve the problem in southern Africa.

For such a thorough cleaning plan, Wei Ze has seen it. Regarding the attitude of the formulator, Wei Ze's evaluation in his heart is the word 'lazy'. But he is not interested in caring so much, after all, after the end of the war, due to the fear of China, European countries probably do not dare to fully cooperate with the Chinese-dominated financial system. There's a lot to be done in this transition.

When Wu Huawen, who was in charge of the African direction of the General Staff Headquarters, came to Wei Ze with Wang Mingshan's report and expressed his disagreement with Wang Mingshan's overly tough attitude, Wei Ze picked up the report and read it, and asked Wu Huawen with some puzzlement: "Do you think the Boers are more reliable than the British?" ”

Wu Huawen hurriedly explained: "Governor, I think Secretary Wang's handling is too rough. He clearly believed in blacks more than whites. I think it's better to strike a balance between the two sides. ”

"Balance?" Weser was so confused by these words that he couldn't understand it.

"That's right! Support for blacks with weapons and equipment, balance whites with blacks, and balance blacks with whites. This is the more appropriate approach. Wu Huawen hurriedly expounded his philosophy.

Wei Ze only felt that this Wu Huawen's opinion was ridiculous and outrageous, the white man pressed the black man to the ground and rubbed it for hundreds of years, and he had never seen the black man have the ability to fight back against the white man. Even the few victories on the continent were based on the whites' over-underestimation and tactical rigidity. After the advent of machine guns, the blacks never had the slightest chance to resist.

However, Wei Ze was not angry, he just said, "I agree with Comrade Wang Mingshan's judgment", and let Wu Huawen obediently leave Wei Ze's office in the Military Commission. Wei Ze knew that he hadn't seen Wu Huawen's back, and Wei Ze had seen a lot of such comrades. Because they have not seen China's century-old humiliation like Wei Ze, many people have a kind of ironic 'romanticism' feelings when facing the world. He thinks that he can accomplish great deeds through 'clever operation'.

And history proves that the Manchu Qing Dynasty, who had such thoughts, was inserted into the body. The bald head with such a thought has made countless decisions that look outrageous. Only Taizu, who 'abandoned his illusions', led the party to complete the liberation of China. At the end of the 20th century, the dregs of opportunistic ideas were on the rise. However, in the 21st century, after China's industrialization level continued to rise to the threshold of breakthrough, many people, including Wei Ze, saw and admitted that Taizu's choice of one step at a time and seemingly wasteful was the most suitable model for China.

Wang Mingshan in East Africa made the right choice, and in the war in North America, a group of middle-aged and young soldiers, including Qi Rui, also made the right choice. On the other hand, in the Asian part, the guys who did not participate in the hard front-line battles seem to be a little impatient. Hu Huawen is not the first to point fingers at those distant fronts. They did not intend to apply for North America or East Africa, but stayed in Beijing, which is far away and safe, to make all sorts of accusatory remarks.

Wei Ze called Shen Xin, and not long after, Shen Xin, the deputy director of the Organization Department, arrived at Wei Ze's side. After the two sat down, Wei Ze asked Shen Xin, "How long do you think those front-line soldiers will be able to come up?" ”

"Three years." Shen Xin replied immediately.

"Three years...... Weeser muttered to himself.

"Even if it is this year's solution to the United States. There is also the question of full-fledged immigration next year. There is still no way to reduce the troops. There will be a large-scale retirement in the year after tomorrow, and there will be a lot of cropping of the number of the troops. "Shen Xin has already studied it carefully, and he is very fluent when answering." There is one more issue that we must consider, Governor. Many soldiers who participated in the war were reluctant to stay in the army, and there were actually many comrades who performed very well. ”

Shen Xin's tone was relatively heavy, but Wei Ze was not so pessimistic, he smiled: "I think this is very good." If people in a country are only willing to be soldiers, that's a bad thing. I have always believed that the military is only a part of the people, and only the army from the people can get rid of the most brutal attributes of the military. Shen Xin, you should know very well that I have never looked forward to building an extremely cruel country. ”

"That's why you let the Japanese do those cruel things?" Shen Xin could only smile bitterly.

"This is my order, so in the end I will bear all the charges." Wei Ze replied briskly.

These words made Shen Xin's face change immediately. His expression immediately became very serious, "Dudu, if we don't agree with your plan, we will naturally object. If you say so, where do you leave us? If you bear all the blame, what does the country you have built have to do with us? Please don't talk about that again! ”

Wei Ze was stunned by Shen Xin's words, in fact, he was just a little emotional, so he couldn't help but say the second sentence. Unexpectedly, Shen Xin used highly political words to oppose Wei Ze's erroneous views. This shook Weeser.

The collapse of the country and the decline of the cause, with no doubt exceptions, are all caused by a group of people who eat the country, enjoy the cause, and should pay and dedicate themselves to the country or the cause, shouting "those have nothing to do with me". And then this argument expands throughout society, and when all traditions and inheritances are severed, the country or the cause is finished.

Just as before Weeser's crossing, no matter how many people lashed out at the American massacre of Indians, the mainstream of the United States still believed that the American massacre of Indians was beneficial to the United States. Even if this process is bloody and brutal and inhumane, it is still a history that Americans must inherit.

So until Weeser crossed, the United States was still the most powerful country in the world. The United States, which has successfully subverted many countries, is constantly attacking the traditions of other countries and destroying the people's recognition of its own history.

Regarding Shen Xin's statement, Wei Ze didn't say anything. He talked about another issue, "Shen Xin, I am not ready to serve as the president of the country again, and if I don't hold the position, I will have to elect a new candidate." In next year's presidential election, I personally want to vote for you. ”
