The summer harvest in northern Ukraine is a little later than that in the south. At the end of June, the wheat in the farmland began to turn yellow.
On Friday, Maxim noskov returned from Odessa to participate in the last purchase negotiation of the fertilizer plant there. In the past two days, he has been running around the farmland in Rovno state to check the crops that are about to mature. As a devout old Soviet Communist Party, even if he is now a non partisan person and does not join the reorganized Ukrainian Communist Party, Maxim's heart remains the same Holding on to certain beliefs.
As a member of this country, I always try to do something for these people in this country.
Even though all the people around him have fallen into the madness of some kind of belief collapse over the years, Maxim noskov still does not change his mind. Of course, he is not a pedantic person in his heart, otherwise he would not accept the support of a super rich man from the United States.
It was not until the evening that maxim left the field with several staff members and officials from the Agriculture Department of the state of Rovno. Instead of returning directly to the city, he turned to a nearby agricultural machinery center.
In the agricultural machinery center, there are 50 brand-new large-scale combine harvesters, which are like soldiers in full dress.
This is another purchase of Maxim's farm loan from the Netherlands. 50 harvesters are just a drop in the bucket for the summer harvest in Rovno. Once the harvest starts, even if it runs round the clock, it can't solve many problems. Most of the crops still need to be harvested manually by farmers.
If you want to complete mechanized harvesting, you need at least 1000 harvesters in the state of Rovno.
But it's better than nothing.
Everything needs to be done step by step.
Seeing these large-scale agricultural equipment, Maxim can't help but think of last year's event. At that time, he got the first agricultural loan from Holland and appropriated part of it for purchasing tractors for spring ploughing. As a result, the director of the Agricultural Machinery Factory absconded with his family after getting the payment.
260 billion hryvna, equivalent to 870000 US dollars.
It's not a big sum of money, but it's definitely not a small sum of money, because he lost a lot of hair in just a few days, and had to ask his daughter for help rarely. In fact, he asked the young man for help.
Then the money was quickly recovered.
This is a happy event.
Along with it was the director of the farm machinery factory, who was said to have fled to Germany. One day, he died in the street of Rovno. There were four members in the family. None of them ran away.
There is no report on this matter in the public media, but it has spread widely.
As if to let some people know something.
Then no one knows what happened to the bodies of the four members of the family. The police of the state of Rovno did not conduct any investigation, so it was settled.
Maxim doesn't think it's right.
However, he found that he was unable to do anything, and then he did not encounter any similar problems. Many people were even a little nervous when dealing with him.
After personally checking the harvester of the agricultural technology center, the party finally returned to the urban area.
Back home, it was more than eight o'clock in the evening.
Noskov's family were waiting for him to come back. It was his wife's birthday. When she left in the morning, her wife reminded her that her daughter would come back for dinner today. Looking at the stinky expression when her daughter looked at her, Maxim subconsciously wanted to be angry. In the past, the children in the family did not dare to treat him with this expression, but then he was a little dispirited.
I don't care.
But his wife gently reminded him to wash his face and said that his daughter brought some seafood today.
I washed my face and came to the restaurant.
The whole family sat down at a long table with plenty of food, including two norskovs, their eldest son Andre and his girlfriend Anna, their eldest daughter Tanya and their newly born grandson, their second daughter angelica, and the youngest Ekaterina.
In addition, there was a girl with obvious military temperament, who was introduced as Lina, the bodyguard of her little daughter.
I'm a little angry.
What kind of bodyguard do you want? So many people can't use bodyguards. That young man really spoils these girls and wastes them.
It's hard to teach because the bodyguard named Lina is near.
Well, I can't help it.
His wife, Elena, took the initiative to find a topic and asked about his work today. She also raised her wrist to show her birthday gift, a string of gold amber bracelets.
Rovno state is the most important amber producing area in Ukraine. However, in the past, these amber ores were not valued at all, and some residents even used large pieces of amber as kindling materials. Then, it suddenly became popular in the last year. Maxim also heard about it. It is said that it is related to another company similar to his daughter, Vladimir korkoshko. His two sons set up a company and got the exclusive mining right of the amber mine in Rovno.
Kolkoshko is the deputy director of the State Investment Promotion Bureau. It is said that someone also intends to train him to become a new governor in a few years.Such a person, how can connive two children to do so.
The amber mine should belong to the national resources. It should be returned to the country. Right. The two young people not only took it as private property, but also organized an armed gang to stop the local residents from mining amber without authorization.
It's lawless.
It's just that.
No, No.
The more Maxim noskov thinks about it, the more sorrow he feels from the bottom of his heart. Can such a country have any future? He once thought about choosing politics. Maxim knew that he could do more, but he didn't manage the fertilizer plant he was in charge of very well. He didn't have a problem when he was small. At present, the chemical fertilizer industry assets of vestro system are more and more huge. Although he is still the person in charge, he is mainly responsible for the production, and has taken the initiative in sales and finance.
He looked at his son Andre.
In fact, I really hope that this son can take over his own class, but the father and son also had some estrangement last year. After finishing his postgraduate study in the Department of chemistry at Kiev University, he decided to go to the United States to study, because he knew that once he went to the United States, he would not come back.
The results are predictable.
The younger daughter, who also approved of her brother's study in the United States, also made trouble with him.
It's just that no one is thinking about their own country now that they are all going abroad. That's the essence of everyone.
Well.
I don't care.
Because Maxim's interest is not high. It was originally a birthday dinner, but everyone ate it tastelessly. Maxim has accumulated a lot of prestige in this family. Except for his little daughter whose wings are hard now, others are afraid of this stubborn and rigid middle-aged man.
Yekaterina didn't want to face her father's bad face. After dinner, she said goodbye to her mother, brother and two elder sisters. She ignored her brothers and sisters. She obviously hoped that she would stay more time and left her home in the west of the city with Lina.
This is a residential area built by the westero system for the families of the ufms private army. Because of Ekaterina, the noskov family also had a single courtyard here.
But now, compared with the families of other girls, there is a lot of difference here. In fact, the family had hoped to move to a better place, because Maxim insisted on the idea of simple life and could only stay here.
Even last year, Tanya, yekaterina's eldest sister, got married. If it wasn't for her mother and yekaterina, they would not even have a new house.
Maxim's salary, in addition to leaving part of it for his family, was all donated to help some poor children in the countryside. The eldest sister tried to help her brother-in-law find a better job in the fertilizer plant, but she didn't succeed. She was scolded. Finally, Ekaterina, who was more and more precocious, sneaked in and let her brother-in-law enter Livni media, which is in charge of Uncle Natalia Companies.
In this way, Ekaterina, the youngest in the family, is the real pillar of the noskov family. According to angelica, the second elder sister, their father lives for others, not for the family.
Back at the villa in the south of the city, she took a hot bath and came out in a beautiful home dress. Evgenia and Natalia were watching TV in the living room. When Ekaterina sat down, evgenia asked, "Nana, does your mother like that amber bracelet?"
"Of course, mother also asked me to thank you," yekaterina took an apple from the fruit tray of the tea table, so she ate it in small mouthfuls.
Seeing this, Natalia asked with a smile, "are you hungry at home?"
"Yes," Ekaterina did not mention her father's concealment at all. "Seeing my father's concern for the country and the people, I dare not eat."
"Why?"
"I'm afraid that if I eat too much, my father will teach me that so many people are still hungry, just seven percent full."
"Ha ha."
Evgenia listened to Natalia's belly laugh, and her mouth also showed a smile, but she could not help saying a fair word: "Nana, actually your father is a very good person."
Yekaterina took another bite of the apple: "I know, but I don't understand why he can be so good to others and not to his family."
Natalia seemed to think of something: "is your father very bad to you?"
Noticing Natalia's expression, Ekaterina understood something and shook her head: "of course not. My father is not that banhikov. He is just too strict with us."
At this point, the three girls began to gossip, and evgenia said, "I heard that guy had a broken leg."
"Hum, what is this? I think if he makes trouble again, he may be directly dug and sold."
"Gelina's mother and sister were lucky. They were beaten and moved into the hot spring manor. Gelina's mother became the housekeeper of the manor." When evgenia said this, she saw the two girls around her looking at herself with a little quirky in their eyes and asked, "why, did I say something wrong?"Natalia and Ekaterina shake their heads together.
It's just that there's something strange in the expressions.
Evgenia blinked her eyes. She was not a fool either. In the past two years, because she lived here, she could receive too much information and soon associate with some other aspects. She blushed and looked at the other two women and said, "you two have dirty thoughts."
Ekaterina countered, "if you don't want to be crooked, you know we have dirty minds."
Natalia has some gossip: "anyway, Simon likes Yulia and Ivana very much. I don't think Simon would have let them go if it hadn't been for this. Besides, Eve and her sisters, tut, because of this, Lyudmila is even more annoying. I really want to fight with her. "
Evgenia felt her face getting hotter and hotter. She interrupted, "well, let's not talk about this. Let's talk about tomorrow. My brother is going to the amber mine in the north. I want to see it, too. Are you going?"
"Tomorrow is Monday. Are you not going to do your homework?"
"We're not the kids in the hot spring manor. We've learned a lot. And, Simon said, "we can go out anytime we want."
Listening to Eve, the other two girls looked at each other and said, "well, I'm sure we should talk to Eve first."
"Of course, Eve won't object."
Yekaterina finished eating an apple, threw the core into the garbage can, hugged a pillow next to her, leaned comfortably on the sofa, and said, "Eve seems not to care much about us these days."
"Because the hot spring manor is full of young children, we are big girls now, and we always have to take care of the children more," said evgenia with a smile. "Moreover, we all have an extra bodyguard when we travel recently, which is arranged by Eve. She is still very concerned about me."
"It's Lyudmila who's so annoying."
"Lyudmila is in Italy, or we can go to Italy and continue to see her hungry."
"Ha ha, it's not fashion season now. We can't see anything when we go."
"I'd rather go to America," Natalia said
The other two girls were quiet. Then Ekaterina said, "I miss Simon too. What is he doing now?"
"It must be surrounded by a large group of beautiful girls, but it's not us."
"Well."
"Simon is so gorgeous."
"Oh, if not, can we be here now?"
"So it is."
So chirping into the night, the three girls ran to the master bedroom together, sleeping in the big bed to continue the night talk.
I got up late the next day.
Living like a canary, but also very conscious of the canary, eat a simple breakfast, or spent some time to exercise, near noon to go out, leave the city, go to the hot spring manor in the north of livny.
Demonstration.
And talk to Eve about going to the amber mine.
The three girls suddenly have this kind of idea, but Eve doesn't dare to let them run around, even if evgenia is in charge of the amber mine, so she follows them.
Compared with Livni, the downtown area is more prosperous, more northward and more dilapidated.
Even though the westero system has invested a lot in ronov state, and people like Maxim noskov are working hard for change, the surrounding farmland, which should be full of crops, is still barren, and large areas of weeds appear to be extremely luxuriant.
Evgenia's two brothers have gone to the amber mine in the north in the morning. In fact, the depth of the whole Rovno state is only more than 100 kilometers. Livni is in the middle, and the hot spring manor is in the north. Evgenia and three girls leave the hot spring manor and arrive near the northern border in just over an hour.
Find evgenia's two brothers Nicholas and kiril, and then see the so-called amber mine.
It's not as wonderful as you think. The so-called amber mine in the deep forest is full of potholes and muddy water. At first glance, it looks like the surface of the moon. The surface of the newly unearthed amber mine is completely stone. Even if you don't understand these, a few girls can understand at a glance that this kind of amber mine, or this kind of mining mode, is too amateur, and even a bit of chaos.
