339 The Way of Royalty

Visakham still came to discuss business with Rock. This time, he not only wanted to buy agricultural products from Johannesburg, but also wanted to hire a team of soldiers from the newly formed First Cavalry Division to live at Visakham's home to protect the safety of Visakham himself and his family. So Rock inadvertently helped the Umbrella Company expand its business to India.

Compared with the troops stationed in India, the performance of the newly formed First Cavalry Division is indeed very outstanding. Although Visakam has a strong demand for security, Rock cannot allow the newly formed First Cavalry Division to accept such employment from Visakam.

Rock only now knows that this kind of employment is actually very common in India. Although it seems a bit unreasonable, as long as you pay a fee, you can indeed hire some soldiers to live in your home through some special channels. For those officers, where the troops are stationed does not seem to be a serious problem.

The reason why Visakam is unwilling to find others is because of the huge hidden dangers of this method. After all, not many people let strangers live in their homes without knowing the basics. The quality of Indian soldiers also needs to be improved. Not to mention whether they can play a security role. If the custodian steals himself, it will be very funny.

This kind of thing is not something that can be said. Uslam is strictly speaking, Lakshmi's subordinate. After encountering unfair treatment, he suddenly became the Lord.

For the umbrella company, the Indian business is an overseas business. The staff work in India, and the umbrella company has to pay overseas allowances, so the fees for this kind of work are very high. According to the subtraction of Rockton Gassi, if Visakam hires a team of ten security personnel, the annual cost may exceed 3,000 pounds.

The price is indeed a bit high, but Visakum gritted his teeth and agreed. It was really shocking that Lakshmi's fate was gone. If there was no one, what's the use of staying for more money? In the end, it would be only cheaper for the Indian government or an unknown distant relative.

All Lakshmi's immediate relatives have died, so now the position of deputy king of Lakshmi has lost his heir. The Indian government has selected an heir from Lakshmi's distant relatives and inherited Lakshmi's title. Although this will incur a large amount of expenses, the trusted deputy king will definitely not care about this. For the trusted deputy king, his title fell from the sky, and there is nothing to dislike.

Visakum is very worried that he will be the same as Lakshmi in the future, so it is not unfair to spend 3,000 pounds a year. As long as the territory is present, the money can always be earned back.

The position of Deputy King is probably only present in India, just as the position of "South Africa Commissioner" is to Southern Africa.

There are too many British colonies. In the four colonies in southern Africa, each of which has one South African official in addition to one Governor. The position used to be Ade, and now the position is Earl Selbourne, so Earl Selbourne has the ability to promote the autonomy of Southern Africa.

The deputy king is actually these local kings of India. The nominal kings of India are of course the British kings. Then these local kings of India become deputy kings and cooperate with the British king to manage India, which has a certain meaning of "sharing the world with the scholars and officials."

Although £3,000 is not much for Rock, Rock still attaches great importance to the business of the Umbrella Company.

Although a £3,000 is not much, many £3,000 are quite impressive when accumulated. There are 550 Indian princes and princes who have security needs. Even if only one-tenth of the magistrates need security services, the total business volume can make Rock wake up in his dreams.

The key is that India is very close to Nepal. Although Chandra and Rock have a good relationship now, the Nepalese government is very cooperative with the new First Cavalry Division. It is hard to say what will happen in the future. If Rock wants to obtain a steady stream of troops from Nepal, he still has to set up a direct agent in India, just like Hilton Robert.

Hilton Robert, who is permanently based in Kathmandu, is not only responsible for the recruitment of Gurkha mercenaries, but also responsible for maintaining the relationship between the British government and the Nepalese government. This position is actually very important.

Moreover, when the Umbrella Company opens its business to India, it will also produce a benefit that will not be seen for a while.

The British government has always been cautious in its attitude towards the colonies. Rock, the Baron of Nyasaran, has not yet been able to form a legitimate force in Nyasaran. It can only build the troops in the name of South African companies, and it is also named "Rhodesia Northern Division" in order to avoid the British government's restraint.

The Umbrella Company is another force in Rock's hands. On the surface, the Umbrella Company is a commercial company, but in fact the Umbrella is a complete military organization. Now the Umbrella Company has more than 4,000 employees, and the number of people is almost comparable to that of the Rhodesia Northern Division and the newly formed First Cavalry Division. Peace does not affect the Umbrella Company's money making. Once a war breaks out, a single Umbrella Company can form a force at any time.

The organizational structure of the Umbrella Company is similar to that of the regular troops. The general manager is equivalent to the chief of staff. The department managers below are of course the head of the battalion company. The various team leaders and squad leaders are grassroots officers of the troops. In the future, Rock will also allow grassroots officials of the Umbrella Company to go to the officers' schools for training in batches, which will make it easier to improve the strength of the Umbrella Company.

Compared with the Chinese security guards in Johannesburg, Gurkha mercenaries are actually the best source of troops for the umbrella company.

The British government hired Gurkha mercenaries and never had the idea of ​​hiring mercenaries' families. The reason why Rock wanted to hire mercenaries to immigrate was on the one hand to enhance the strength of Johannesburg, and on the other hand to better control these Gurkha mercenaries and ensure their loyalty. As long as their family is in Johannesburg, Rock would not worry that mercenaries would betray for money.

The mercenaries today are different from those in the future. The professional mercenaries in the future are just a group of war hyenas. They are willing to do anything for money, and loyalty does not exist at all.

The loyalty of mercenaries today is still guaranteed. After all, Gurkha mercenaries are concentrated and managed completely militarized. Even if some people want to win over and corrupt, they probably won’t find many opportunities.

If the Umbrella Company expands its business to India, it can easily hire the most outstanding Gurkha people through India. In the future, even if the newly formed First Cavalry Division wants to expand its troops, it does not need to pass Hilton Robert. The Umbrella can be completed more easily through it.

In order to ensure the smooth development of the Umbrella Company's business, Rock chose to place the Indian branch of the Umbrella Company in Kolkata. After all, Kolkata has the most wealthy people in India and they have the most urgent need for security.

Since it is working with the umbrella company, a formal commercial contract is needed.

There are also lawyers in India. Before Gandhi went to southern Africa, he was a not very successful lawyer.

For lawyers, drafting such a commercial contract is a little bit of a problem. Rock still found Dhaka's most famous lawyer, responsible for formulating a commercial contract with Visakam.

The key to the problem now is that there is no head of the umbrella company in India, and Rock cannot personally sign the contract with Visakam, so Rock called Zach over to sign the contract on behalf of the umbrella company.

Zach has been around Rock for five or six years now. After so many years of experience, his temperament is becoming more and more stable. He is gradually thinking that it is appropriate to sign a professional housekeeper like Charles de Gaulle.

When Visakam met Zach, he still habitually wanted to get close to Zach, and was very enthusiastic about shaking hands and greetings.

Zach doesn't talk nonsense, and he can't stop talking nonsense. His tongue was cut off when he was in Robben Island prison, so Zach rarely laughs even, and he always has a meticulous and expressionless face.

Visakam was very depressed and felt that Zach was not easy to deal with, but he was still not discouraged.

"It turns out that Mr. Zach is the housekeeper of Lord Niasalan. Lord Niasalan has a bright future and has a high position at a young age. As Lord Niasalan's housekeeper, Mr. Zach must be very busy at work. I am very interested in Lord Niasalan's territory. If I have the opportunity, I must go to Nyasalan once and see with my own eyes how prosperous Lord Niasalan's territory is. I believe that it must be a city comparable to Kolkata-" Visakam does not know Nyasalan at all. How big is a city of 400,000 square kilometers?

It's probably going to stuff everyone in the world.

Zach didn't speak, and his posture of sitting down to sign was very standard. When signing, he used a limited edition gold pen produced by Itno. The font of the signature was still beautiful in style, which looked much better than Visacam's font.

"Mr. Zach's English calligraphy is so beautiful. Few people can sign the signature so beautifully. Mr. Zach, you must have received higher education. I don't know which school Mr. Zach graduated from? I studied at University College London ten years ago. Although it was only two short years, those two years left me many beautiful memories. London is the greatest city in the world, with the most beautiful scenery and the most perfect urban facilities. As an Englishman, it is really a blessing to be able to live in a city like London-" Visacam is blindly praising. The scenery in London is just like urban facilities, which is hard to describe.

Perhaps Zach also felt that Visakam's words were a little funny, so he accidentally smiled when he finished signing the letter and shook hands with Visakam.

Only then did Visakam realize that Zach had no tongue.

So he immediately respected Lord Niasaran's subordinates.
