Chapter 564 Noble
"Brother Wang, is this true? Can we go to East Africa and be as successful as you?"
When Andre heard this, he felt a little proud. He was so natural and refined in front of others, but he knew his own weight, so he said, "It's not a glorious thing. I'm just a commoner in East Africa. It's just that I've lived a carefree life in the Far East this year. In fact, I'm nothing in East Africa."
"Brother Wang, our wishes are not high. We just want to have enough food and drink, and marry a wife, and our lives will be complete. We are not as capable as you. You are already an official. As the saying goes, there is a difference between officials and civilians, so you don't need to be modest. We really envy you."
Haha, if Andre's subordinates heard this, they would definitely look down on him. He is just a platoon leader! I thought he was the commander of the military district! However, the flattery of these Far Eastern workers really touched Andre's heart.
He said generously: "Don't worry, East Africa will be fine. I can't say about other things, but you don't have to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation. Everyone works hard, and East Africa has always been generous in this regard."
"We absolutely believe you on this point. We have been working here for so many days, and the food here is even more abundant than the New Year's Day in the past. The soldiers under your command are stronger and stronger than each other. It's obvious that they are not short of money."
Andre: "Haha, of course. I've said before that the treatment of the troops in East Africa is absolutely first-class. Have you ever heard of a ranch? It means a large piece of land where no crops are grown, but grass is grown, and a lot of cattle and other livestock are raised. I used to have several ranches under my command, which were specially used to supply meat to the troops."
"My goodness, that land can only be used to grow grass and not crops, right? No one would be willing to use good farmland to raise livestock, unless the family is rich and has a lot of land."
Andre shook his head and explained: "The land is good. In my opinion, the land of the ranch is not bad compared to the Far East. But there is a lot of land in East Africa, so we don't have to use it all to grow crops. It's good to use it to raise livestock."
As we were talking, we had already started eating. We were eating canned stewed fish. The thing that is most abundant on the island is seafood, but it is easy to get tired of eating it as a meal, so after eating it for three months, no one is very interested in seafood anymore.
Of course, this is just the psychological state of the East African garrison. Laborers, for example, are very content. Many of them come from the mainland, and seafood is also meat, coupled with rice and flour processed in East Africa. Life is much better than before when they had to eat coarse grains and vegetables. Moreover, many people in the Far East do not even have the qualifications to eat coarse grains and vegetables. Everyone is used to hard lives and is very satisfied now.
Looking at the workers around him wolfing down their food, Andre originally felt that today's meal was a bit boring, but seeing others eating with gusto, his appetite was aroused, and he started eating with his military lunch box.
After eating, Andrei took the opportunity to tell the workers his thoughts: "If you really want to develop in East Africa, I, as a person who has been through it, will give you another suggestion. After the construction is completed, you should be able to save some money. You'd better go back to the Far East to arrange for it. I think you can come here to work because your family is in financial difficulty and you must not have found a wife yet. It's better for you to get the wages and go back to your hometown to get married. After you have a family, contact me and go to East Africa to develop as a family."
East Africa has a very good reputation in the Far East, so it will naturally not deduct workers' wages, and the treatment is much higher than that of local workers. They have made a small fortune working for East Africa in the past few months, which is enough to marry wives. The more turbulent the times, the cheaper human life is, and a mouthful of food can sometimes be exchanged for a wife, so Andre's words are very practical.
"Brother Wang, can't we marry this daughter-in-law in East Africa?"
"East Africa is certainly an option, but you have to wait. You are all grown up, can you afford to wait? Besides, East African women are expensive, who would be interested in you if you don't have the talent? So I suggest you start a family in the Far East first, and then go to East Africa to develop. Of course, another reason is that the immigration threshold has been raised a lot now, and family immigration has a higher chance of success."
"Brother Wang, you have been in East Africa for so long, have you started a family?"
Andre shook his head and said, "Not yet."
"Brother, you are so capable and yet you still haven't started a family? Isn't the competition in East Africa quite intense?"
Andre: "Haha, it's not that I can't get married, it's just that I've been in East Africa for a long time and my standards are high. Of course, another point is that I went to East Africa relatively late, and I didn't catch up with the right time."
"Brother Wang, what kind of woman do you want to marry? I think my sister is good, gentle and considerate, and hardworking. Do you want her?"
Andre smiled and said, "I appreciate your kindness, but I want to find a white wife. This will be of great help to my career in the army or in the future."
After Andre said this, everyone understood that he wanted to find a foreign wife. However, the more Andre said this, the more the workers admired him.
"Of course, if you want to find a foreign wife, it's not impossible, but East Africa is not what it was a few years ago. There are not so many opportunities. And by the time you go to East Africa, the development of East Africa may have changed a lot."
East African policy supports intermarriage between Germans and Chinese, which is why Andre wants to find a white wife. Now everyone with a discerning eye knows that mixed-race people will be the most popular in East Africa in the future, especially in terms of promotion and welfare. There are many hidden policies. Whether Andre is developing in the military or transferring to a government agency or state-owned enterprise after retirement, having a white wife will make things smoother.
"Brother, what does the child born to a foreign woman look like? Have you seen it?"
"Haha, that's natural. Many new generations in East Africa are mixed-blood. As for their appearance, it's naturally a combination of the characteristics of both parents. There isn't much change. The pretty ones are pretty, and the ugly ones are still ugly."
"Can Dongfei have three wives and four concubines?"
Hmm! Andre glanced at the person who asked the question in surprise and said, "Li San, can't you see? You don't have any skills, but you have a rich imagination. You want to have three wives and four concubines to prepare for the happiness of having all the women in the world?"
"Look at what you said, Brother Wang, I'm just curious. After all, isn't that what all rich people do?"
"Hehe, that's in the Far East. It's different when you go to East Africa. Not only in East Africa, but in the entire Western countries, there is no such thing as having three wives and four concubines. You can only marry one, even the king."
"Aren't they afraid of losing their lineage?"
"They don't seem to care as much about this as we do in the Far East. Of course, someone is definitely concerned about the continuation of the family, but they have their own rules. Let me remind you that in other countries, especially East Africa, you must abide by the law and don't do anything bad. In East Africa, the file will accompany you for a lifetime and will also affect the future of your descendants, so if you go to East Africa, you must be honest and do your job."
"Thank you for your teachings, big brother. It's just that we don't have wine or tea, otherwise we would definitely toast you a glass."
The workers were really grateful to Andre. In other words, Andre was the noble man they met. With the help of a noble man, if they could seize the opportunity, their future life would be much better.
