Chapter 168: To Mozambique

After more than 20 days, the ship finally docked in Dar es Salaam, and Wang Defeng and his younger brother's family came to the Dar es Salaam Immigration Bureau to inquire about the specific situation.

"Of course, Mr. Dave Wang, because the state does not explicitly prohibit this kind of behavior, but this kind of thing is not easy, after all, it takes time for your relatives to obtain East African citizenship, do you have time to stay with them for so long? You know, there's a good chance they'll be assigned to remote areas. A staff member from the Dar es Salaam City Immigration Department asked.

Wang Defeng nodded and said, "How many days will it take to complete the procedures?" ”

"If it is usual, it will take at least five or six days, and the long one is twenty or thirty days, after all, every region is dignitary, and the relationship is very complicated, but now the procedure time has been shortened a lot, because most of the immigrants are inclined to Angola, Mozambique and Orange, so the review is more relaxed, and if the time is fast, it may be completed in one day."

After listening to the staff's explanation, Wang Defeng finally breathed a sigh of relief, he still has more than ten vacations left, if the household registration and other procedures of his younger brother's family can come down faster, then the time should also come.

……

Two days later.

Wang Defeng breathed a sigh of relief that his brother's family's ID cards and household registration had been confirmed, and he sent a telegram to his wife in Dar es Salaam, informing him that he was going to send his brother to Mozambique first, so that she could stay at home for a while.

Later, he took his brother's family to the photo studio in Dar es Salaam to take a family photo, borrowed a pen from the photo studio, and wrote his name and home address on the back of the photo.

After handing it to his younger brother, he said: "You can keep this photo, don't get damp, and behind it is my home address and my name in East Africa written with a pen, you probably can't read it, but when the time comes, just write back to me and show these to the staff at the local post office, I guess you must have a teacher who teaches German, and he must be able to speak Chinese, so let him write the letter on his behalf." ”

Saying that, Wang Defeng touched his nephew's little head and said, "When you study in the future, you can also write a letter to your uncle's family, your cousin and cousin will definitely want to see your family." ”

The bolt nodded and said, "Uncle, when I learn to write, I will definitely write to you and my brothers and sisters." ”

Although I haven't seen my uncle's family, my uncle was kind to himself when he was in the Far East, and he brought a lot of delicious food and fun.

After preparing for a few days, Wang Defeng followed his younger brother's family to Beira Port by boat, and yes, this time the younger brother's family was assigned to the inland west of Beira, mainly the area along the railway in the future.

It is still relatively convenient in terms of transportation, which also makes Wang Defeng happy, he said to Wang Desen: "Now I live in Harare, and before I left East Africa, I heard that Beira is going to build a direct railway to Harare, if so, then it will be easy for our two families to contact, if the railway is opened, the direct train will only take one day to arrive, if there is a holiday, I can take my sister-in-law and nephew to visit you." ”

The bolt asked on the side, "Uncle, what is the railway?" ”

Wang Defeng said with a smile: "It's a kind of road made of steel, it looks quite spectacular, and I can't describe it, but you will have a chance to see it in the future." ”

Soon, Wang Defeng's words were fulfilled, because at this time, the construction of the Haber Railway had already started, and part of the route had been completed.

At this time, the construction of the railway in Beira City has actually been completed, and the railway is being built inland, in fact, Harare City is also building this railway to the east, East Africa is two places at the same time, no accident, at the end of this year, the Habe Railway will be completed.

After a brief night's rest in Beira Harbor, Wang Defeng and his brother's family headed inland, this time in a horse-drawn carriage.

Even so, it gave the younger brother and his family a new understanding of East Africa, because horses and cattle are too common in East Africa, and when they were in Dar es Salaam, there were many citizens who rode bicycles and could run their own trams, which was an eye-opener for the younger brother's family.

And Wang Defeng is used to this, after all, he once served in the army, so even the railway is not too rare, and he is almost numb when he is a soldier.

Wang Defeng and his entourage basically drove along the railway line, and of course, after walking a certain distance, it became a grassland.

The number of people in the group was not small, in addition to Wang Defeng and his younger brother Wang Desen's family, there were also hundreds of immigrants, in addition to these people, there were also Wehrmacht soldiers who were responsible for sending them to their destination.

Now Mozambique is under the management of the military, so the migration work is mainly in charge of the army, and Wang Defeng, who has just retired from the army, can also talk to them.

"What year did you enlist, young man?"

The young soldier in front of him looked like he had just come out, and his face was still a little childish.

"Uncle, it turns out that you can speak German!" The soldier said in surprise.

"Hehe, I'm originally from East Africa, so I naturally know German, and not only do I know German, but I used to be a Wehrmacht soldier like you."

"Really, uncle, I thought you were an immigrant, after all, there are mainly immigrants from other places in this team."

Wang Defeng shook his head and said: "My family, they are mainly from the Far East, this time they immigrated to East Africa, and they are not familiar with the place, so I sent them, and when they are settled, I will go back to work." ”

"Uncle, aren't you a soldier in the Wehrmacht?" The young warrior asked.

"I said, it was before, I just retired last year, and the government arranged for me to work in the factory, but I took the opportunity to take a break in the middle, so I applied for a long vacation, and by the way, I went back to my hometown in the Far East to pick up my relatives."

"Uncle, where are you from?"

"Harare."

"Harare is a good place, I heard that it is also a big city in the country, and the previous railway seemed to lead to Harare."

Wang Defeng nodded and said: "That's the case, but all parts of East Africa are actually similar, although Harare is a big city, but life is ......."

Wang Defeng chatted with the soldiers escorting the immigrants, and he also set a lot of information, such as the place where his brother's family went this time, which is almost more than 100 kilometers away from Beira City, and it is not a white land with nothing, but a colonial stronghold left by the Portuguese in the past.

There is also a small army stationed there, so security is not a problem, and the living facilities are relatively perfect, there are Portuguese plantations, and the overall living environment is not bad, which also reassures Wang Defeng a lot.

The younger brother's family could only listen to Wang Defeng and the East African Wehrmacht soldiers chatting as if listening to a book from heaven, which was the common perception of other immigrants, most of whom were from the Far East, and the few white faces were not Germans, but from Austria-Hungary and Bosnia.

Now the Germans are not easy to recruit, so East Africa also focuses on other peoples, and Bosnia, which is the southern mountainous region of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, has a very poor economic level.

In less than three days, the group arrived at the destination of the trip, and after settling his younger brother's family, Wang Defeng, who had a good relationship with the local garrison, bid farewell to his younger brother's family and embarked on the road back to Harare.
