Chapter 153 Orphans
St. Martin's Orphanage Three
There are five orphanages in St. Martin, each of which can accommodate about 1000 people, for a total of 5000 people.

Of course, St. Maarten does not actually have that many orphans. Except for a little more people in the first hospital, there are only two to three hundred people in the others.

Among them, the first hospital is located in the city of St. Martin, which accommodates the orphans of martyrs, ministers and officials, or those who have contributed to the kingdom. This courtyard is also the best treated among all orphanages. It has special teachers, special medical personnel, and Specialized psychological counseling and so on.

Although not everyone who grows up in this yard will become a talent, the rate of becoming a talent is very high.

The No. [-], No. [-], No. [-] and No. [-] courtyards are respectively located in the suburbs of the east, west, south, and north of St. Martin City!
Although the treatment is not as good as that of the first hospital, there are also specialized teachers, medical staff, and regular psychological counselors to give psychological counseling to all orphans, but these abilities are not as strong as the first hospital.

Most of the people who entered the No. [-], No. [-], No. [-] and No. [-] courtyards were orphans of ordinary people.

The reason why these courtyards are treated differently is to tell the people of the Kingdom of St. Martin that as long as you make contributions to the kingdom, even if you sacrifice, your children will receive the top treatment and education. Will be a talent too!
If you are just commoners of the kingdom, don't worry, although your children don't have the top treatment, but since you are a member of the kingdom, the kingdom will be responsible for your children to the end!

"A wave in a wave. A wave in a wave"

Today, after finishing his work, the old Newka went to the Royal Bank of San Martin to issue income certificates and deposit certificates, and then went to the security team in the city to issue an identity certificate, and then went to the hospital to issue a health certificate. Walk towards the third courtyard of the orphanage in the west of the city.

Adopting orphans in St. Maarten is not that simple. Apart from age, you must meet certain financial and physical conditions. If you fail to meet the conditions, the orphanage will not let you adopt.

After all, you can't meet the economic conditions, so why raise this orphan?
The physical conditions are not up to scratch, what if you die after adopting an orphan?
It's better to let these orphans stay in the orphanage and receive better education and treatment!
However, the old Newcastle was selected by Huygens and naturally met the conditions!

In terms of economy, the old Newcastle is single, usually delivers food to the palace, and can get a lot of money every month!

And his usual hobbies are only drinking, dancing, and singing. These don't cost much, so he has saved a lot of money in the bank.

In terms of body, although there are many minor illnesses, there are no major illnesses, and the body is very healthy. It is not a problem to live another 30 to [-] years. If I am lucky, I will not have a problem to live to a hundred years old.

The old Newka came to the Third Hospital with ease.

Although the Third Hospital is said to be an orphanage, it is not like the horror and spooky orphanages in movies such as Orphan's Resentment and Lonely Castle.

The orphanage consists of three parts, all of which are bright and spacious.

A huge playground, filled with various toys and fitness equipment, is a place for orphans to play and exercise. The edge of the playground is also full of green trees and flowers, which looks like spring.

In a five-story dormitory building, the first floor is the canteen, and the second to fifth floors are the dormitories and washrooms. Usually, there will be special teachers to manage the order here.

A five-story teaching building, one of which is a kindergarten, the second to fourth floors are where grades one to six are located, and the fifth floor is where the orphanage staff work!

The first to sixth grades are compulsory education for St. Martin. After finishing the study, those who have studied well will enter the newly established St. Martin Middle School for three years of advanced study. Those who are average or not good will be assigned to various workshops to become Apprentice, learn a craft that can survive.

After the age of 16, the orphans will enter the resettlement house in the Kingdom of St. Martin and start an independent life!

After the old Newka entered the Third Hospital, he arrived at the deputy dean's office on the top floor of the teaching building with ease.

The dean of all the orphanages in St. Martin is Princess Ishihara Satomi, but they are usually managed by the deputy dean. Ishihara Satomi is only responsible for giving gifts and care to the children on holidays!

"Dong dong!"

"Come in!"

A friendly voice came from the office.

Hearing the sound, the old Newcastle directly opened the door and went in!

"It's old Newcastle! Is everything ready?" Maeda Mariko looked up and said kindly after confirming who was coming.

Maeda Mariko is an old man over sixty years old, wearing a kimono, with a kind face and silver hair.
Originally a descendant of an aristocrat in St. Martin City, he was married once. After his husband died of illness, he never remarried. He had no children in his life, but he adopted many orphans. Invited her to become the director of the orphanage.

"It's all ready!" Old Newka smiled and handed over all the certificates in his hand.

Maeda Mariko took it over and took a closer look, nodded in satisfaction, but still picked up the phone at hand, called the bank, the security team, and the hospital one by one, and checked it carefully.

After a while, she put down the phone bug in her hand.

"Okay, no problem!" Maeda Juko smiled slightly, then stood up, walked towards the door, and said, "Let's go, I'll take you to see the little girl you like!"

"En!" Old Newka nodded and followed.

Today is Saturday, so there is no class in the orphanage, and the orphans are playing in the playground or sleeping late in the dormitory.

Old Newka and Maeda Juzi got off the teaching building, passed by the playground, and came to the dormitory.

"Who is that person? Why are you going to adopt him for the first time?"

"That's right! Don't those people have to observe for a few days first when they come to adopt?"

"I know that person. It's the old Newka who delivered food to the palace. I talked to him when the teacher took us out to play last time!"

"Then which one is he going to adopt?"

"I don't know! Usually, the dean will tell you in advance, why is it so sudden today?"

A group of orphans who were active on the playground watched this scene and talked a lot.

Orphans are naturally sensitive about adoption.

They know who came for the first time and who observed them for a few days.

Under normal circumstances, when the adoption stage has not yet entered, the teachers and management staff will take the adopters around at most to observe the orphans. Only when the adoption stage is reached, will the dean accompany them!

Led by Mariko Maeda, Newka came to the innermost room on the fifth floor of the dormitory.

"Boom!"

"Squeak!"

The door opened at once!
This is a standard six-person room, in which six five-year-old girls of the same age lived.

"Ah, it's Grandma Dean!"

"Grandma Dean!"

"Dean!"

As soon as they saw Maeda Mariko, five little girls who were playing in the dormitory rushed over with smiles on their faces.

Only a blond girl in the far corner was sitting on the bed, with her legs bent, leaning against the wall, reading a book quietly. The arrival of Maeda Mariko just made her look up, and then continued to read with her head down.

After comforting the five little girls, Maeda Mariko pointed at Old Newka and said to the little girl in the corner, "Kalifa, he wants to be your adopter, do you want to?"
