Chapter 227: Spies

First Town City Railway Station.

"Woo ......" a long whistle sounded, and a luxury train slowly drove into the platform, because it received the news in advance that the railway station was under martial law.

This is the second time that the first town railway station has been under martial law, and the last time was because of Konstantin's personal visit to East Africa, so the passengers on the train were obviously important people.

As the train came to a stop in front of the platform, the police officers opened the door with their own hands, and a group of people got out of the car, but the finale was an old man in good spirits - Prince Carl Anton.

"Playing music!" With the order of the commander-in-chief of the East African Military Band, the East African national anthem sounded, and now the East African Military Band is no longer a grass stage team, so the majestic music sounded, and it was full of rhythm, and there was no mistake in welcoming Prince Konstantin last time.

Looking at the construction of the magnificent first town city railway station, Karl Anton is still in a trance, the impact on him is relatively huge, the Heixingen royal family did not have this kind of card when it was in Europe, and now he is sure that the Heixingen royal family is really developed!

In fact, from the time he landed in Dar es Salaam, Karl Anton was aware of the extent to which the Hashingen royal family had broken through in Africa.

Dar es Salaam can be considered a medium and large city in Europe, but even the two kingdoms of Heisingen and Sigmaringen combined are not as good as Dar es Salaam, which is only a tiny part of East Africa.

Along the way from Dar es Salaam to First Town, Karl Anton saw the scene of the East African countryside, as the earliest developed area in East Africa, the rural areas of the Central Province are no different from most of Europe, and even the level has reached or exceeded the German average.

German agriculture is considered to be the top in Europe in the current era, the Junkers landlords have invested more in agriculture, and the level of the Central Province in East African agriculture is also the top.

In particular, in terms of water conservancy facilities, the criss-crossing rivers and canals, and the dotted lakes and reservoirs have made the central province a veritable land of fish and rice.

At the same time, the rural construction of the central province is also quite reasonable, farmland, villages, houses, in an orderly manner, neatly planned, the rural roads are smooth and developed, cattle and sheep are herds, and the transportation of cattle and horses and carriages is developed.

The degree of development of a country can be seen from the countryside, and it is clear that the rural construction of East Africa (Central Province) also belongs to the ranks of relatively developed agriculture in the world.

As the province with the highest degree of development in East Africa, the central province must pay attention to one thing, that is, the area of the central province is about 180,000 square kilometers, which is already larger than the area of many medium-sized countries in Europe.

The area of the Central Province alone is almost twice that of Portugal, that is, the population of the Central Province is not as large as Portugal, so Portugal has no complaints about losing to East Africa, the strength of the Central Province alone can be compared with Portugal itself, and Mozambique, as a colony, cannot compete with East Africa.

At present, in addition to a few top-ranked powers, the vast majority of countries in the world still rely on agriculture to eat, the degree of agricultural development determines the degree of wealth of most countries, especially Argentina and the United States is the most typical, Indian agriculture in the construction of the British, is also quite good, but most of the profits of Indian agriculture are also scraped by the British and Indian princes and nobles, and the lower classes of people live very difficult.

Germany and Austria-Hungary are relatively developed in agriculture, but Germany has a limited land area and a relatively large population, so under the general trend of rapid population growth, many people have to leave their homes to find survival opportunities, which is also the biggest help for the rapid population growth in East Africa.

As for the population of East Africa, although it has reached the level of more than 30 million, and the population size of East Africa also allows Ernst to understand why there was a strong Han and Tang Dynasty in the Far Eastern Empire, especially in the Tang Dynasty, there were historical records that did not leave a stone and did not close the door at night.

East Africa is in this state, of course, there is a big difference between East Africa and the Tang Dynasty, that is, East Africa is a slave country, and the existence of slavery does make East Africa very comfortable, which the citizens of the ancient Roman Empire should feel deeply.

Of course, East African citizens are not highly conscious, but have money and nowhere to spend, and the areas bordering East Africa are generally much more backward than East Africa, so there is no market for theft, robbery and other crimes in East Africa, and there is no place to sell stolen goods.

However, it is impossible for East Africa to be free of problems, in fact, in the open zone, there are still economic crimes, as long as there is contact with the world, then naturally someone will be bought.

In the open zone, there is a high frequency of intelligence agents in countries such as Britain and Portugal, who generally buy East African citizens with money through consumption and contact with civilians or local officials in East Africa.

And the open zone is also a port, so there are more ships from various countries, and traitors who have betrayed the intelligence of East African countries can be arranged to flee East Africa.

Last year, East African police cracked four espionage cases in Dar es Salaam and Mombasa, mostly white.

It's no surprise that whites have a wider world than the Chinese, especially in Europe, where there are so many countries.

East Africa can meet the needs of the vast majority of people, but some people seek to get rich, and it is obvious that East Africa does not have as many opportunities as the United States.

And Britain and Portugal can provide them with the opportunity to leave East Africa, and they can also arrange their own nationality, so they can make a fortune and run away, and in this case there will definitely be people who will take risks.

Of course, the British and Portuguese intelligence officers also had times when they were deflated, and when they encountered vigilant East African civilians, they made a backhand report, so that East Africa discovered some traitors.

As for foreign spies, there is really no good way to sanction them, most of them are rogue crimes, they stay in the open area for a short time as businessmen and seamen, and there are people to protect them after they are caught, as long as they insist that they are not engaged in espionage activities, and in the absence of evidence, East Africa will not be able to approve the arrest.

These people are cunning, they get information through cash transactions, and they only pay lip service to traitors, so East Africa can only control their own fools.

The reason for this is that the British are not charitable, they do not fulfill their promises in most cases, or they do not fulfill all their promises, and most of the people they come into contact with are ordinary people in East Africa, even if they are not at the level of officials, so it is difficult to obtain valuable information.

In this case, the vast majority of East African traitors can only get a small amount of cash, as for nationality and the like, it is estimated that they will be thrown into the sea by the British halfway when they get on the thief ship, so that the money will return to the British and continue the next transaction.

All in all, smart people generally don't fall for it, and stupid people are fooled, and they have no use value, and Britain will not raise this group of people who eat white rice, or adding food to the sharks in the sea is their best destination.

It is the consensus of British intelligence officers that East Africa is too closed to do intelligence work, and even East African citizens in the open zone are strictly managed, even more strictly than those of inland East African citizens.

This is similar to that in North Korea, where some state-run hotels in North Korea receive foreign tourists, and the waiters are strictly controlled, and the same is true in East Africa, where the service staff in the open zones are subject to strict scrutiny on a daily basis.
