Chapter 890

People like Rock and Henry Xiaos have gone beyond the scope of professions in secular concepts. Each of them has many identities. These identities are blessed together, which is the real reason for their huge influence on Southern Africa.

There are also many such monsters in France that combine official and business. Xia Fei does not understand the situation in southern Africa, but he knows France very well.

"Secretary Locke, we should share all resources." Xia Fei was dissatisfied with Rocke's attitude, not just because of money.

"I'm really curious. The World War has been outbreak for more than two months, and hundreds of thousands of wounded soldiers are struggling on the verge of death. In the past, there were insufficient medical resources, but now there are enough doctors, but there are not enough operating rooms and wards. Does the French government have no money? If I exchanged a little money for an experienced soldier, I think it's worth it." Rock really looked down on the efficiency of the French government, so he didn't blame him directly.

"France is a democratic country, and the private property of citizens is sacred and inviolable. The land around Paris is expensive and the government is financially difficult. What's more, even if the government pays, no one is willing to sell it." Xia Fei was helpless. He also wanted to save the lives of more experienced soldiers, but objective reality did not allow it.

Relatively speaking, the situation in southern Africa is the same as in France. However, the better thing about southern Africa is that the federal government has a greater influence on the people. There is not much vacant land to be developed around Pretoria and Johannesburg. Many of the land belongs to the powerful people like Rocks. However, if the federal government needs it, Rocks and Xiaos will not raise prices, and at most they will strive for some other benefits.

For example, if the Pretoria Municipal Government wants to build a hospital, it needs to requisition the land under Xiaosi's name, then Pretoria can cooperate with Xiaosi. Xiaosi pays for the construction of the hospital. The Pretoria Municipal Government sends managers and doctors to work in the hospital. The profits are distributed by the two parties, and ownership and management rights are controlled in the hands of the Pretoria Municipal Government. This can not only guarantee the interests of the municipal government, but also guarantee the interests of Xiaosi.

"I am sorry, the marshal, these are excuses. A strong government will not be disturbed by any factors. How can there be a complete egg when the nest is destroyed? If Paris falls, will the Germans guarantee that the Parisians' private property is sacred and inviolable?" Rock said bluntly, and he was full of selfishness when the disaster was about to come. This is a sign of the destruction of the country.

"After all, we can't be the same as the Germans." Xia Fei also knew the problem of the French government, but this is the reality of France. If we want to violate the interests of the powerful, then the Germans don't need to call them, and the French will directly overthrow the current government.

This is the dead knot of democracy and freedom, and there is no solution!

"So, you pay, I'll coordinate." Rock gave the solution. Whether he can accept it depends on Xia Fei's determination.

Xia Fei did not agree immediately, and the expression on her face was very entangled.

Rock was not in a hurry and his eyes fell on a pen holder on Xia Fei's desk. The familiar sky blue color was unforgettable at a glance. Next to it was a globe with exquisite workmanship, and next to it was a reduced French flag and a typewriter.

The commander-in-chief of the French army still typed himself?

So magical.

"After the field hospital is completed, it will be your French property, and it will save the lives of your French soldiers. What else can I hesitate about?" Rock didn't waste much time on Xiafei. In fact, even if the French government does not pay, Rock had a way, and some people were willing to pay.

Medical resources are scarce in any era. There are only a few hospitals in Paris with incomplete facilities and the medical level is not high enough. Higher-level doctors are all in private clinics, and private clinics are the high-end medical resources of European countries.

These private clinics cannot be entered by the poor.

If Rock went to Renard Cape now and told Renard Cape that he wanted to build a hospital in Paris, then there was no need to find anyone else. Renard Cape could get everything done by himself, and there was no need to emphasize how much money the hospital made.

"Minister Locke, we no longer have a fiscal budget--" Xia Fei had no choice. He also knew that it was necessary to build a hospital, but without a budget, he could not do anything.

Rock stopped talking nonsense to Xia Fei. When he returned to the headquarters, he called Renard Cape. Soon, Renard Cape appeared in front of Rock.

"Lord Nyasaran, welcome you to France--" Renard Capel had an exaggerated expression and gave Rock a big hug when he came up. He didn't care whether Rock gave Ada a title.

"Renard, you want to lose weight, and health is the basis of everything." Rock was really worried about Reynard's health. It looked like Reynard was only about 1.6 meters, but his weight must be more than 100 kilograms.

Renard Cape laughed. He had imagined the scenes of meeting Rock countless times, but he didn't expect that Rock would be so direct after meeting Rock.

However, this direct Rock obviously made Renard Cape more relaxed. Unlike Xiafei, Renard Cape knew very well Rock’s status in southern Africa, and its business in southern Africa was very important to the Cape family.

After the French Revolution, the title of the Cape family was abolished, the family was lost, and even the ancestral castle was forced to be sold. The tribe members were miserable and helpless, so Ada married far away to southern Africa.

Now with its business in southern Africa, the Cape family has risen again and become one of the most famous families in France. Therefore, Renard Cape will unconditionally cooperate with any requests from Rock. Renard Cape has a good relationship with French politicians. When Rocke first arrived in Paris, Renard Cape also attended Rocke's welcome dinner, but Renard Cape did not get the opportunity to communicate with Rocke.

"I'm going to build a hospital in Paris to treat wounded soldiers-" Rock was concise.

"What do I need to do?" Renard Capel didn't ask how much it costs, nor did Rock's purpose, nor did he even ask about any difficulties, and met all Rock's requirements.

"To find a suitable piece of land, it takes about 500,000 pounds to build a hospital-" Rock had high requirements. 500,000 is not a small amount. One pound can be exchanged for 25 francs, and 500,000 pounds is 12.5 million francs. The top Paris hotel in Paris has 800 rooms, 65 multi-function halls, and the cost is only 21 million francs.

"Lord, this is your first investment in France. How can you do 500,000 yuan? At least one million yuan is required to meet your identity." Renard Cape doubled directly. There is no need to ask about this money, Renard Cape must have paid it himself.

If there is no accident, after the hospital is built, it is estimated that the hospital will still be under Rock's name.

Looking at his big move, Xia Fei should be ashamed.

"After the hospital is completed, it will be called Rock Hospital. Everyone who receives treatment in the hospital will be grateful to you. Your kindness and glory will always shine on the banks of the Seine-" Renard Capel's flattery kept gushing, and Rock was embarrassed. If you continue, Rock is God.

"Then just do it. If it's one million, then build a few more." Rock was satisfied with Renard Capel's attitude, so he didn't care about giving more advice.

"Where is it built?" Renard Cape cooperated completely, and Rock said whatever he said.

"Bordeaux Marseille Lyon Nantes, anything is fine. Education and medical care are not necessarily the most profitable, but they must be the noblest." Rock doesn't care how much money it makes now, not to mention that education and medical care are also very profitable.

"That's so good. I've told Ada a long time ago that it's a pity that there are not enough resources to copy the education and medical care in southern Africa in France." Renard Cape is also a family-leading source, not a mercenary nouveau riche. Honor is very important to ancient families like the Cape family.

Everyone knows the importance of education and medical care, but not everyone can do it. In order to provide Transvaal's education, Rock sent people to search Europe for experts and professors who are willing to immigrate to Southern Africa. In order to develop medical care in Southern Africa, Rock founded the Johannesburg Medical College a long time ago. These are two industries that require great patience and continuous investment to see returns.

"Then try hard. I will go to Flanders in a few days, and the hospital's work will be handed over to you." Rock still delegated power, but there must be necessary supervision. After all, the hospital serves the Expeditionary Force, and Rock has always had strict requirements on project quality.

Renard Cape was still very efficient. That night, Renard Cape found a suitable place on the outskirts of Paris, just by the forest on the banks of the Seine River, very close to the Arc de Triomphe. I don’t know how much Reynard Cape spent.

No matter how much it costs, it is worth it. The place found by Renard Cape is about 120 acres, which is more than enough to build a hospital. Now the land around Paris is already valuable and will only become more and more expensive in the future.

Just as Rock was working hard to improve his logistics, Flanders' battle was in progress. The newly established French Ninth Army was in cooperation with the British Expeditionary Force, and the commander was Ferdinand Foch, who shined after the outbreak of the World War.

The British Expeditionary Force could receive fire cover from the British Navy in Flanders. The navy's gunboats drove directly into the Flanders river to provide close-range fire support to the British Expeditionary Force.

In a battle with Witzhart, a German captain named Hoffman was injured. A soldier of his men dragged Captain Hoffman to safety but failed to save Hoffman's life.

The soldier was awarded a second-class Iron Cross awarded by German Emperor William II a few days later, his name was Adolf Hitler.
