If each school has 2,500 students, then Little Rock alone has 37,500 students in 15 elementary schools.

This number simply shocked Louis Botha, and the whole of Orange did not have so many students combined, or all the secondary and elementary schools combined.

The principal is still chattering, complaining that the city government does not support Sunset Primary School enough, and that the top students of the University of Nyasaland School of Education are not enough, and the funds allocated are also seriously insufficient, resulting in the school's hardware facilities not keeping up, and the parents of the students are complaining.

However, Louis Botha really didn't see how bad the hardware facilities of Sunset Primary School were.

Beyond the shadow wall, there is a spacious playground, the running track around the playground has been hardened, and in the middle is a green grass, Louis Botha didn't know that this was called a football field, but this did not affect Louis Botha's cognition, just this playground, it was enough to kill all the elementary schools in Orange.

"Our sports field is still open-air, and last year we reported that we wanted to build an indoor sports hall, but the city government did not pay for it, and the affiliated primary schools already have three indoor sports halls, and we don't even have one." The headmaster was demanding, and Roque simply hid on the other side of Louis Botha.

It's a bit strange to fold Louis Botha, in Louis Botha's impression, Roque has always been very strong, whether in Pretoria or in dealing with external conflicts, Roque has never backed down.

Now in front of the principal, whose body is badly fat, whose hair has basically fallen out, and who still has a funny monocle on his face, Roque actually wants to walk around.

Louis Botha felt as if he had discovered something.

"It is true that Sunset Elementary School's joint entrance examination results are not as good as those of the affiliated primary school, but it is not because of our students' poor qualifications, but because our teachers can't keep up, if Sunset Primary School has 20 graduates from the University of Nyasaland - even if it is only ten, I can guarantee that Sunset Elementary School's joint entrance examination results will go to a higher level." The principal will not give up, and follow Roque in his footsteps.

"Pierce, don't worry, take your time, everything will be going on—" Roque was overwhelmed, and President Douglas and Professor Abu made a bad start, one relying on the old and selling the old more than the other.

Walking through the playground and through a forest is the teaching area, the woods act as a good separation zone, the hustle and bustle outside the school does not have any effect on the place, and the clear voices of the teachers come and go, and Louis Botha instantly fell in love with this feeling.

This feeling is called hope.

At this point, Principal Pierce finally shut up and walked around the teaching area with Roque's aunt's eyes.

The school with more than 2,000 students is quite large, because this is a primary school, and the tallest teaching building is only three floors, in order to maximize the lighting, the number and area of the windows have been expanded to the extreme, and there are curtains behind each window.

Not even the office building of the Ministry of Agriculture can do this.

Considering that the children here are still active children, Louis Botha doesn't know how Pierce did it.

Pierce apparently did not notice Louis Botha's concerns, and did not stay in the teaching area for long, warmly inviting Roque and Louis Botha to the principal's office to rest.

Roque and Louis Botha noticed that there were a lot of people in their group, and standing in a large area of the teaching area would definitely distract the students and affect the normal teaching.

Then go to the principal's office.

Louis Botha thought that the conditions of such a good school, the principal's office is not magnificent, at least it should be solemn, graceful and elegant, but I didn't expect Pierce's principal's office to be in the corner of the top floor of the office building, not only the area is not large, but the office furniture is actually very worn, and the sofa armrests have a tendency to wear out.

This surprised Louis Botha.

Or the difference in cognition, in Louis Botha's understanding, the superior must have the style of the superior, clothing, food, housing and transportation are the same, and must have high standards and strict requirements anytime and anywhere, so as not to damage their image.

After all, Pierce represents not only himself, but also Sunset Elementary School, such a principal's office, in fact, is not suitable for entertaining guests, simplicity is a good habit, but there must be enough respect and politeness for guests.

Roque obviously didn't expect it either, so his expression was ugly.

"I don't usually have any customers here, and the most people who come are parents of students who want to donate, and many of the parents of students are engineers, bank executives, executives of large companies, or at least successful businessmen, who will donate more when they see my office so miserable." Pierce's face actually showed the same cunning as a child at this time, the office furniture is indeed old, but the hospitality is all good things, sure enough, the tea is green tea from the Qing Kingdom, and the tea set is also a high-end tea set produced in the United Kingdom.

"You are the principal, don't make yourself like a businessman, the conditions are a little more difficult now, and in a few years, more and more graduates will definitely be assigned over." Roque's tone was finally no longer perfunctory.

Louis Botha's mood is not to mention how complicated, is it still difficult?

Sunset Elementary School also has two graduates of the University of Nyasaland's Faculty of Education, not one in the whole of Orange, and the more than 1,000 graduates of the University of Nyasaland's Faculty of Education are "mass-produced" every year, almost all of which are digested by Nyasaland internally, and only the Transvaal and Rhodesia can get a few dozen each year.

Maybe Bechuaner will be added next.

"It's okay Lord, I'm already fifty years old, I'll retire in a few years, I worked here just after the Sunset Primary School was built, my two grandchildren both graduated from Sunset Primary School, they are both studying at the University of Nyasaland now, my son works in the military-industrial complex, and my daughter works in the RAND Bank, I have no regrets in my life." Pierce finally stopped stalking.

He is only fifty years old, his grandchildren are already in college, and he is getting married early.

However, this cannot happen in the future, considering the population base of southern Africa, the federal government does not stipulate this in this regard, but Nyasaland has a rule that in Nyasaland you must reach the age of 18 to get married, if you marry too early, if the woman becomes pregnant, there is a great risk, limited to the current level of medical care, the maternal mortality rate in this year is still very high.

"Principal Pierce, how much money does Sunset Elementary get from the state and city governments each year?" Louis Botha was still concerned about money.

Pierce blinked at Roque and didn't answer immediately.

"Look at what I'm doing, as much as I have-" Roque was very helpless, don't see it so obviously, it's okay to see the outside, but Louis Botha is also a minister, this is too faceless, don't take other people's ministers as cadres.

"The state government is pitiful, only subsidized meals, and often discounted, many of the eggs sent are broken, the fruit is only mangoes and bananas, apples are only given once a week, and the milk is not fresh—" Pierce habitually poured bitter water, and Louis Botha's heart sank.

Rocra didn't speak, the eggs were broken and scrambled and scrambled and could still be eaten, what was there to complain about.

"The city government is also very picky, and we don't pay for a sports hall, and we teachers and staff are only paid 14,000 rand a year, but we have 2,545 students here, and the average is only a few dollars per student—" Pierce quietly changed his mind.

"The city government is paying you salaries, not students." Roque finally couldn't help it.

Thanks to the strength of the rand, the 117 faculty members can earn an average salary of 120 rand per person per year, which is a proper middle class even in the UK.

Considering that the price of goods in Nyasaland is lower, the purchasing power of the rand is stronger, and many families in Nyasaland are dual-income workers, so the family income level in Nyasaland is still very high.

There was a sudden soft knock at the door, it was Pierce's assistant.

"What's the matter?" Pierce was dignified at this time.

"Headmaster, Mr. Steele has arrived." The young assistant had starry eyes, and Roque didn't necessarily visit the school once a year.

"Please wait a minute." Pierce didn't hesitate.

"Okay headmaster—" The assistant's swaying posture was called a graceful gesture.

"Who is Steele?" Roque was curious, and his memory didn't have that name.

"A French businessman, who has not yet been naturalized in Nyasaland, wants to send his children to Sunset Elementary School—" Pierce suddenly realized that something was wrong.

"Is this a lot of cases?"

"—still a bit much."

"How do you deal with it in general?"

Pierce immediately shut up and didn't say a word.

"How much?" Roque was not polite, endured harassment for a long time, and finally caught the pigtail, which must be chased and beaten.

"Generally a thousand rand—start—" Pierce's face was gone, and he was simply dejected.

Roque and Louis Botha were quite surprised, one student is a thousand rand, and it starts, ten is ten thousand, Sunset Primary School has 2,545 students, and receiving a hundred and ten will not affect the overall quality of the students at all, and the annual salary of 117 teachers and staff is only more than 14,000, and education is really an industry that robs the rich and helps the poor.

"There are only three or five such students a year, and I'm going to add another class to see if I can fill it-" Pierce broke the jar and broke it, and if he kept it secret, he would be suspected of deception.

"Are all businessmen so rich?" Louis Botha was surprised today, and a thousand rand is not a small number.

"Don't underestimate the determination of parents to give their children a better education, and the maximum donation for the affiliated primary school is R15,000." Roque didn't feel emotional, the biggest injustice for donating 15,000 rand was Christian, because of this 15,000 rand, his third son is now in the same class as Gavin, and he is Gavin's loyal little follower, in fact, he is a year older than Gavin, and this is because of some reason, Shengsheng let his son delay his son's enrollment for a year.

But it's hard to gauge how much this opportunity is worth.
