Chapter 1014 This City (4)

Because there are many lakes of all sizes in the south of the city of Rifney, it used to be a gathering place for the powerful and wealthy classes. This tendency has become more obvious in the past two years.

Early the next morning, Vladimir Korkoshko woke up from a villa in the south of the city. It was only about five o'clock in the morning. He was already a 51-year-old middle-aged man and his sleep began to decrease. At the same time, his wife got up went to prepare breakfast. Korkoshko jogged in the gym. He was not too enthusiastic about exercise. He was too busy in daily life and could not care too much about his figure. Jogging in the morning was just to keep healthy.

After exercising for half an hour, I came to the living room at six o'clock. The maid at home delivered today's newspaper and helped him turn on the TV to slowly understand the various current events that happened today.

At seven o'clock, breakfast time.

The two lazy sons who were brought back by themselves last night were beaten to wake up by his wife. When he saw his second son coming to the restaurant with his shirtlessness, he touched the butt of the beautiful maid at home, he couldn't help but stare at him in anger. Kirill Korkoshko felt his father's eyes, and instantly woke up. He remembered something, showed a smirk, turned around and ran upstairs, put on a coat, and returned to the restaurant.

Listening to his mother's words of sharing meals for himself while asking him to wear more clothes in daily life, pretending to be a wooden man, picking up the tableware and eating it.

Vladimir drank sweet soup, but talked about the serious business again, asking his eldest son Nicholas, who was quite a bit serious at home, and said, "What's the matter with the TV sets you mentioned last night? I remember you didn't do this before?"

Nicholas said: "It's in China, well, Simon's people, who took the initiative to help us arrange it. Alexander said that he was a woman Simon valued very much in China, including the previous amber business. We didn't expect to sell for such a good price at first. It was the woman who helped us introduce her, otherwise she would definitely be cheated."

Vladimir frowned slightly: "Woman?"

Kirill, who was originally burying his head, said at this time: "Dad, don't you know, Simon has some women who are very powerful, that, ABCD, and the net worth is hundreds of millions or billions of dollars. The Chinese one, well, Chen Qing, is also very powerful. Alexander said she is responsible for supervising a large-scale enterprise listing project that Cersei Capital cooperates with the Chinese government."

Vladimir nodded slightly, but immediately warned: "For these people, remember that cooperation can be done, and no thoughts are allowed."

"Hey, how dare we, anyway, there's no shortage."

Mrs. Korkoshko, who was listening to the three father and son's conversations next to her, finally interrupted: "Nick, Kirill, do you have a girlfriend now? Since life is so good now, it's time to get married early."

"Mom, can you stop nagging about this? Nick and I are still so young."

Vladimir glared at his second son: "Don't talk to your mother like this."

Kirill didn't dare to talk back, and the maid happened to send a small cake over. Obviously, Kirill made a move and reached out and shook behind the maid. The maid with a pretty face and full figure dodged for a moment. Although Kirill did not slap him, he still couldn't help but glance at Vladimir on the other side, with a little pitiful look in his eyes.

Vladimir could only angrily again, but still said nothing. He waited for the maid to leave before continuing the topic just now: "I won't say much about the other things, it's just about the tariffs. Please pay attention. You should pay some, don't be caught too much. After all, the import port is in Odessa. Now Kiev is staring at us more and more. It's very difficult to deal with something."

Smuggling is prevalent in Eastern Europe now, and many oligarchs have been relying on smuggling for many years. Because of the collapse of the country, the government is powerless to do anything about it.

Nicholas said: "Dad, don't worry, this matter has been done long ago and there will be no problem."

"Also, you two, try to show up as little as possible. Let Alexander and the others do the specific things you should do. You should not be stingy with the benefits you should give. Remember, being stingy will not accomplish great things."

Kirill nodded repeatedly: "Yeah yeah."

Vladimir wanted to hit him again, but unfortunately hesitated a little across the dining table, and said solemnly: "I said last night that I plan to nail myself to the Rovno State, and my ability can only be limited to this area. In the future, the Korkoshko family will belong to you two. If you don't have the ability, next, even if Simon will care about protecting us easily, he may have to leave Ukraine and live overseas."

Nicholas felt his father's earnestness and nodded seriously this time.

Kirill didn't care anymore, but he couldn't help saying, "Dad, don't you think about living overseas? It's better than Ukraine."

"No matter how good it is, it is someone else's territory. If you can go and play, you can settle down, if it is not a forced one, who do you think is willing to leave your country and immigrate overseas?"

"I might be willing."

"Don't talk back to your dad," Mrs. Korkoshko saw her husband reach a critical point, and quickly turned around and said, "Also, Nick, you two will take care of your sister more in the future."

"My sister doesn't need us to take care of her."

"Different, different," Mrs. Korkoshko couldn't help but shake her head and said, "After all, the lover is not a wife, how can it last forever."

The two brothers were speechless.

Thinking about the number of lovers someone has, this seems to be a problem.

If it were someone else who dared to treat his sister like this, the two brothers would have already taken the guy and called him, but because it was Westeros, it seemed... probably... that... could not do anything at all. After all, everything in the Korkoshko family is given by that man now, and it would not be difficult for the other party to take it away.

"Maybe," said Nicholas a moment later, "maybe my sister can be like those powerful women around Simon, maybe."

The other two men in the restaurant didn't say anything, but Mrs. Korkoshko smiled and shook her head: "No, your sister is just a stupid girl, and there is no smarter person in our family." As she said that, it was another twist of God and said to her two sons: "You two must find very smart girls as wives in the future. I heard that children born in this way can be smarter."

“…”

After breakfast, the two brothers who were urging their marriage by their mother intent on getting married hurriedly left, and Vladimir also took a bus to the state government.

As soon as he arrived at the government building in the city center, Vladimir's secretary came over and notified that there would be an extraordinary meeting in the morning and also sent materials.

Vladimir first came to his office and opened the meeting materials, with a slightly strange expression.

The topic of the meeting was about resettlement solutions for residents in the shanty town west of the city.

In the car I returned home from the hot spring resort last night, Vladimir thought that he needed to pay attention to this issue next. Unexpectedly, when I got up today, the first meeting was like this.

Moreover, there is already a relatively complete solution in the materials in my hand.

The two private commercial banks in the Rovno State, Rifny United Bank and Rifny Development Bank, which are directly controlled by the Westeros system, will invest $200 million to establish multiple resettlement communities in the west and north of the city along with Sergei Komorov-controlled Oldek.

Two hundred million US dollars.

Vladimir once again couldn't help but think of the pitiful compensation that Ukraine only received from the West for giving up its nuclear weapons two years ago.

Now, the Westeros system takes $200 million at one move.

This is simply...it's a lot of money.

As Mrs. Korkoshko said at breakfast, the Korkoshko family did not have too smart people. Therefore, I carefully read the materials and found that the 200 million US dollars will be an investment in the next two years and will not be a one-time gift, but it seems that it is really a waste.

In any case, the civilians at the bottom of the shanty town and even the more and more Ukrainian residents who flock to Rivni, in any case, are not worth the Westeros system spending so much money in vain.

If it was for UFMS mercenaries, Vladimir could easily understand that after all, the army has always been a gold-eating beast, and it is only difficult to get in and out.

In addition, what's going on with these people?

The angels have arrived in Ukraine?

However, Vladimir quickly figured out that this plan could only be approved by Simon himself, otherwise no one in the Westeros system would dare to take out such a sum of money to waste it.

So, the question is, Simon was possessed by an angel?

This is obviously a joke.

In any case, 200 million US dollars were used to build a settlement area for those poor people. It was difficult for Vladimir to feel that the money could be recovered.

I thought about it for a long time in my office, and I also called out several times during this period, but there was no result. I couldn't figure it out, so Vladimir could only think that Simon was really leaning over by an angel.

At ten o'clock, the meeting began.

Vladimir came to the large conference room of the government building and found that other senior government officials and relevant Rovno gang leaders who had already arrived were whispering. Obviously, everyone seemed to not quite understand the purpose of the sudden plan.

In the following two hours of meeting, Boguslav Edelman and Marek Perman, the presidents of the two banks, became the protagonists, and personally introduced the general plan of the plan to everyone.

Everyone listened carefully.

Immediately, when the two responsible persons talked about the fact that in order to cooperate with this development plan and hoped that the state government would cooperate with the formulation of relevant land allocation and real estate development related bills, Vladimir Korkoshko finally felt that he seemed to have caught a slight slash.

Due to the influx of a large number of people, the housing prices and land prices in Rifni area continued to rise sharply, and Vladimir also knew about this.

However, this kind of rise is only relative after all.

Not to mention the real estate industry in other overseas countries, Rivni is far inferior to Kiev, the capital of Ukraine.

Therefore, if you want to develop real estate in this city, unless someone goes crazy. After all, if you have money, go to London, Paris, and New York, aren’t these cities good? What’s more, $200 million is definitely not a small amount of money. Even those international metropolises, this money is enough to play.

Since that's the case, Vladimir feels that he can only say that Simon is investing in the future. If he is clearer, the young man plans to make plans in advance and completely control Rifny's real estate industry.

Then, think about Rifni's population grew from just over 200,000 to more than 800,000 in just two years. If such a growth rate can be maintained, it will only be a matter of time before the population exceeds Kiev's 3 million in the future. With more people, the demand for real estate will naturally increase.

If the layout is made in advance and the real estate industry in this city is locked in, future profits can be expected.

However, after thinking that he had roughly figured it out, Vladimir Korkoshko still felt a little regretful. It was 200 million US dollars, and it was really unnecessary.

It has to be said that this senior Rovno government official who is quite loyal to Simon does lack sufficient vision and insight.

Sergei Komorov, the head of Oldek Company who just got the materials this morning, saw more than Vladimir. Let’s talk about a relatively large case: the merger of East and West Germany, and in order to support East Germany, West Germany has invested tens of billions of dollars in just a few years after the collapse of the Berlin Wall. Germany has also set up a "uniform tax" for this.

In general, no country or city can rise up in vain, especially a city like Rifny, which is almost poor and careless.

Since we have seen the possibility of rise, if we want to further develop, we must invest real money to solve various people's livelihood problems regardless of costs or returns.

Just like the shanty town that appears west of Rifney City.

If this problem is not solved and allowed to develop, a slum that is increasingly large in scale may be formed in the future.

In any case, Latin America or Southeast Asia, the impact of slums on a city is absolutely negative, dragging down urban development, hindering the introduction of capital, promoting the breeding of crime, etc. Moreover, for people, residents who live in slums for a long time often completely lose their hope for the future.

There is no hope, let alone hard work or change.

Therefore, since Simon is quite optimistic about the prospects of the city of Rifny, this problem must be solved in advance.

This is a big vision.

Of course, there are not many people in this world who have this vision. Many times, they just don’t have enough capital to solve these problems.

I have to say that at this time, these people in the conference room of the state government building understood some of Simon's more or less.

But, it is not comprehensive after all.
