Chapter 989

At the end of the morning schedule, a group of high-level people attending the meeting were invited at noon. In the afternoon, several industries located in downtown Livni were visited. Simon arrived at the ufms children's school in the west of the city at 4:00 in the afternoon.

Of course, the name after the official opening is not this, but the West City school in livny.

Until now, the school, which is still expanding, provides all-age education from kindergarten to high school, mainly for the children of ufms mercenaries and the children of Rovno executives.

Because of the super high quality of the school, there are many parents who want to send their children in, but they don't refuse. The only difference is that the education of the children of ufms mercenaries and the children of senior executives of the Rovno Gang is completely free, which is regarded as a special welfare. Other foreigners need to pay expensive school fees.

In the eyes of many people, the most powerful thing about livnisi city school is that the total number of students in this school is about 3700, while the number of teachers is more than 2100. Regardless of other functional personnel, the pure teacher-student ratio is only 1.7 to 1, which is terrible for a school providing primary education.

This is mainly due to Simon's original strategy of recruiting a large number of talents.

Because of the collapse of this country, Ukraine, which used to have a very developed education system, has to find another way out because of its financial constraints and a large number of teaching and administrative personnel can not even pay their salaries. As an elitist in his heart, Simon instinctively didn't want to see this kind of thing. Coupled with the fact that a top physics professor couldn't even give out his $5 pension, he had to write to beg for a job, so he asked the school to open up recruitment.

As a result, there are more than 2100 teachers, most of whom have doctorates or above, and many of them are university professors from Ukraine and even Russia.

Simon's average salary level is $500, which is a joke in the United States. On the Ukrainian side, it is already the top salary level, which is more than ten times of the average monthly income of Ukrainian residents at the present stage, and is enough for these elites to live a very rich life in Livni.

There are more than 2100 teachers to deal with 3700 students, and the surplus is almost inevitable. Therefore, many teachers do not attend classes. After all, not all the elites recruited by Simon are suitable to go to the podium. The surplus talents can either open up interest groups for students according to their own majors, or engage in their own research in the research institutions that have just set up rudimentary forms in Livni, and they are not suitable for teaching Or simply provide various consulting services for enterprises of westero system here.

I really have nothing to do. It's OK to be idle.

Even if these people are paid more than a million dollars a month, it doesn't matter to Simon.

According to the ancient Chinese saying, it should be regarded as a thousand gold scholars.

However, with Simon's relatively generous salary in Ukraine, not many people are deliberately lazy.

Although Simon entered the school during the summer vacation, there were still many people in the campus.

Simon has long understood that the key to a person's life is not university education, but primary education. Therefore, when he first determined the direction of charity of the Westeros family, he had the idea of making efforts for it.

Finally, face the reality and give up.

However, for this school here, even without the relevant expectations of Sowell college in Los Angeles, Simon's education style is still called strict elite education, rather than the happy education that Europe and the United States generally cheat the bottom. Want to be happy, want to have a childhood, sorry, go out and turn left, rivney city school doesn't offer happy childhood.

Although as long as the eligible students can enter the school free of charge, they will not refuse other self funded students, but from the primary school stage, the students in this school will be in a state of competition.

No one will be expelled unless they do something particularly bad. However, all the students will be divided according to their academic performance. If the students with good grades enter the top class, the poor students will get together with the poor students. Of course, because the teaching staff is strong enough, the school will also teach students in accordance with their aptitude.

For example, between arts and science, or really not interested in all cultural courses, but have good sports, can be cultivated.

Simon also customized scholarship regulations, not only from primary school to secondary school, as long as he can enter a designated University in the future, he will continue to receive funding from the westero system, and even study abroad directly under the arrangement of westero system.

As for parents, if they can't accept this Spartan education, it's optional.

However, since the start of the school, only more and more people want to send their children in, and no one has let their children drop out because of the strict school education system. Attaching importance to education and looking forward to the success of their children are definitely not only the educational concepts of Chinese parents, but also the instincts of almost all parents in the world.

Simon walked through the campus. The whole campus, even the kindergarten, has a lot of students.

It is obvious that some parents in kindergartens don't have time to see their children take the initiative to send them. After all, the quality of kindergarten teachers here is also the highest after careful selection, not to mention free. In other primary and secondary school areas, there are students in every classroom, either receiving summer tutoring, or various interest groups, or taking physical exercises.On the whole, the campus is filled with a kind of determination that this dilapidated country does not have.

Simon also met Sergei yersakov, a physics professor at Kiev National University, who wrote to ask for a job. He was 68 years old and still hale and hearty. He was tutoring a group of students in high school physics. Simon also listened to a passage. Compared with the physics course of his high school career in memory, the difference was obvious .

Finally, after a few words, the old man expressed his thanks to Simon. His present job has almost supported a large family.

And then there was the inevitable sigh.

Simon stayed at school for two hours and didn't leave until six o'clock.

The evening was another party.

This time it was quite special. The reception was aimed at some senior military officials in Ukraine.

With the establishment of Ukraine's constitution, Ukraine's political and military system has begun a new round of adjustment. On the military side, Kiev authorities have begun to brew another military reform.

To put it bluntly, we should continue disarmament.

Even when the Soviet Union just disintegrated, the 700000 troops in Ukraine had been reduced to 200000, Ukraine still can't afford to support them.

Simon also got some information in advance.

In this reform, the entire Ukrainian army will be planned and integrated into three major military regions, mainly the northern combat command with Kiev as the core, the southern combat command with Odessa as the core, and the Western combat command with Livni as the core.

The three major military regions, Kiev and Odessa, are no surprise. One is the capital, and the other is the Black Sea estuary. However, the Kiev authorities intend to set up the base of the Western combat command, which integrates the Nine Western States, in Livni, the capital of Rovno state. This is obviously targeted.

Of course not externally.

Simon is not trying to change that.

If it was in the Soviet era, or in other countries with stable political situation, the authorities would do so, and Simon might still have a grudge. Now Ukraine has more than 200000 troops. Frankly speaking, they are a group of local people who may not be as good as the Iraqi troops in the Gulf War.

As for the reason.

As a soldier, you have to eat food. In Ukraine, in 1995, the defense budget squeezed out by the Kiev authorities was only US $910 million, less than US $1 billion. Coupled with the well-known state of skirting in Ukraine at the present stage, it fell to about 240000 troops last year, and may not even have half of it.

It may be a problem for soldiers to have enough to eat, let alone fight.

Today's Ukrainian army is struggling from top to bottom to make a living on its own. After all, a few years after the collapse of the Soviet Union, western society and Eastern European countries are in a honeymoon period. At least in Ukraine, there is no sign of war or confrontation. Naturally, no one will think of or care about their own army.

Simon is hosting a senior member of the Ukrainian army, who has been designated as the commander of the Western combat command. His name is Vasili Borisov. He is 56 years old and holds the rank of lieutenant general.

In fact, it was the general who mobilized engineers from a regiment to help build infrastructure in the military theme park. Borisov's family is also one of the secret shareholders in the military theme park. In addition, Vasily Borisov's 17-year-old son, Alexander Borisov, was one of the top-level Ukrainian children's study abroad funding programs determined some time ago.

The Borisov family is also involved in the arms trade with Angola. Alexek Borisov, Borisov's eldest son, also works in related arms trading companies.

All in all, this is a "self".

Of course, on the surface, Vasili Borisov belongs to Kuchma's department in Kiev, but he is not the core. In the end, he was able to win the post of commander of the Western combat command among several competitors. This is also due to the fact that the westero system is quietly operating.

Compared with the northern operations command in Kyiv and the southern operations command with a navy, the Western operations command is the smallest. Even if we do not consider the further downsizing, there are only less than 60000 people at this stage.

Simon quietly had an idea that 5000 ufms private troops would fight 60000 soldiers from the Western combat command. He didn't know what the result would be?

Of course, the probability of this happening is almost zero.

Even if the one in case really happened, Simon was watching from a distance. Of course, he would feel sorry for the loss of ufms private army, but it didn't hurt his muscles and bones.

Vasili Borisov is more like a bureaucrat than a soldier. It's not hard to imagine that he looks like a man with a big stomach. In front of Simon, the lieutenant general has no air of becoming a commander of the military region. On the contrary, he has obvious humility. Such is the leader, not to mention other senior leaders of the Ukrainian army who participated in the banquet.

Therefore, a dinner party, the guests and the host enjoy.

At 10 p.m., after the dinner, Simon did not stay in the city, but continued to rush back to the hot spring manor in the north of the city.

When the car entered the main road, a girl sitting next to Simon said something serious: "boss, another invitation has been sent from Moscow. I hope you can attend a banquet tomorrow evening, mainly for an investment delegation from the United States. Yeltsin will also attend."Simon leaned on the leather seat and closed his eyes. Hearing the speech, he shook his head directly: "no, I won't go."

After a long time with Simon, girl a knows more than others. After thinking about it, she said, "boss, I think sometimes I still need to show my sense of existence."

Simon opened his eyes, looked at the female assistant beside him, laughed and said, "a, then why did Yeltsin invite me again?"

Alison said: "it should be to show some sincerity, or some communication. In short, it must be related to the boss's layout in Russia."

Simon shook his head. "You may have guessed wrong this time."

"Well?"

Simon didn't explain.

Simon didn't tell anyone about someone's arrangement except two jennies. Even girl a only knew that Simon had some special layout in Russia. In any case, he would not think that Simon's layout would be the next president of Russia.

It's too big. Simon doesn't trust girl a, but doesn't want to leave such an insignificant flaw.

Let's talk about Yeltsin's invitation.

If Simon and Tatyana, Yeltsin's youngest daughter, really wanted to talk to him after their last meeting, this time, it is very likely to be a trial to test some of Simon's original promises.

Simon and Tatyana said that someone is not his puppet, and can not be his puppet. However, people with a little brain will not easily believe these words. In this trial, Yeltsin may just want to see if Simon will show an attitude of interference in Russia.

If he goes, it may give Yeltsin a hint that Simon is very interested in Russia and even does not pay general attention to a certain arrangement.

Given the importance, Yeltsin will inevitably think more.

Or, even if Simon really guesses wrong, Yeltsin still wants to have a private talk with him. Simon's refusal again will still have some results he hopes to get.

Seeing that her boss didn't explain, girl a didn't mean to ask. Instead, she talked about other things that Simon needed to know.

Back to the hot spring manor, it's still around 11 p.m.

Today, instead of going directly to the spa, I came to the living room next to the hall.

Several girls are watching TV here.

Simon is not the kind of person who likes to be too busy. He just hugs Eve banhikova, a little girl on the sofa, puts her in his arms, leaves her sister gelina, and lets the other girls leave.

Girl a goes straight up the stairs. After Natalia banjikova's obvious intention to avoid last night, Eve goes to arrange the girls to rest. In the living room, except for the banjikova sisters, only Marta becknatz is still as eager as last night.

After receiving the coffee from the other party, Simon motioned to the girl to sit down beside him. He put his arms around a doll and asked Marta, "how's your day?"

Simon's words were casual, but Marta didn't dare to be casual. He didn't know what the big boss was referring to. He just said cautiously: "not bad."
