Chapter 247: Talent and Money

Since the school and the library had been established, they could not be placed under the jurisdiction of the Agricultural Bureau or the Public Works Bureau, and since Diana and Paladin were already very busy, and to give them such a new thing, they had no experience, and I am afraid they would not have the time.

So Saul had to set up an education bureau, and he was going to hand over the head of this education bureau to Franklin.

On the one hand, Franklin has a gentle personality and is engaged in psychology, and Saul thinks he is better at this work.

Maxwell is the president of the Truth Society, and if he were to become the Secretary for Education, wouldn't it be tantamount to turning the Truth Society into a replica of the Education Bureau.

Wouldn't it be embarrassing if Thor wanted to create a science and technology bureau or something in the future, and then let someone from the Truth Society become the head of the government.

He wanted the Truth Society to become a high-level organization in science and technology, education, and culture, so that he could control some of the new institutions that might grow in the future.

Thinking of this, Saul simply said directly: "Franklin, I want to set up an education bureau to be in charge of the work of the library and the school next, how about you take charge of it?"

Franklin was stunned when Saul suddenly talked about such a thing, but then he lowered his head and said to Saul in a calm tone:

"All as you command, my majesty—"

"Okay, then you can stay later, and let's discuss the teachers and the grade system of the school carefully. ”

Thor was glad that Franklin simply agreed, believing that he had found a responsible administrator for the first school in the kingdom of Soth.

Soon Saul ended the meeting, leaving the development and manufacture of the steam engine to Gliston and Jenner, while Maxwell and Franklin stayed behind to discuss the school system.

All three of them have memories of another world, so the school is basically built according to the school of that world.

According to Saul's plan, the school was divided into seven grades, and the subjects studied involved history, mathematics, and combat skills, of which history and mathematics can be regarded as liberal arts, and combat skills are the training of students' combat skills.

Thor has tried his best to simplify the complicated content of learning, and strive to make the school cultivate talents with basic qualities as quickly as possible.

These people may not necessarily have the talents of Diana, Morey, or even Tula, and they may not be able to reach their heights.

But Thor didn't care, his requirement for the people trained by the school was to be able to become a qualified member of the various government departments, that is, grassroots staff, which was what Thor needed and what the entire Soth Kingdom lacked.

Under the seven-year education, the children who come out, according to the estimation of him, Franklin and others, can reach the level of junior high school students in another world, and a fourteen or fifteen-year-old Soth teenager has the culture of junior high school students in another world.

This is definitely a rare talent in the world of Wotan, who will have a completely different perspective from the traditional Sothians or Wotans, and his understanding of the world will also be different, and Thor believes that these people will be more competent for different job divisions.

In addition, in addition to educating children, Saul plans to gradually open adult courses in schools, so that those who have already joined the government can go to schools for re-education, which he believes will also greatly improve the capacity of the current clerks.

As for the higher education, Saul felt that maybe in the next year or two, there might be some development, but at the moment he didn't plan to think about such a distant thing.

The framework of the school is temporarily set up, and it can cultivate a group of talents for the Soth Kingdom, and it is the most important thing to cultivate a group now, as for improving the average quality of the Soth people, Saul believes that it is not a year or two, one school and two schools can solve it.

Moreover, there are still many problems in front of him, and the two most important things in terms of school are "money" and "people".

Although the school will be built soon, the question of where the teachers will come from is a question, and since the school will not accept a large number of students in the early stage, it can also be replaced by scholars from the Truth Society for the time being.

But these scholars are shouldering more important projects, and it is impossible to stare at a group of naughty children every day, which is really overkill.

"We might be able to train a couple of teaching assistants and let them follow the scholars for a while, teach them first, give them the textbooks, and then let them teach the students. ”

Maxwell touched his head and said cautiously, teaching assistants are not so easy to cultivate, and for the Soth people who have almost zero knowledge base, it may be more difficult to teach an adult from scratch than to teach a child.

Although Maxwell made this suggestion himself, even he did not think that this plan would be successful.

Thor also thinks that it is really difficult for those fierce and brave Soth warriors to train to become assistant teachers.

After thinking for a while, he tried to suggest to the two of them, "Maybe we can put the teaching assistant on the nameless?"

Hearing this, Maxwell and Franklin's eyes lit up, because they were later, so they were usually not very clear about the hierarchy of people such as the old Soth, the Servero, the nameless, and the slaves, and often ignored that the current Soth Kingdom was actually composed of different people.

It is true that barbarians are difficult to educate, especially in the jungle, they are used to surviving in the jungle, and they are best at killing and fighting adult barbarians, but there is also a group of "civilized" humans from the civilized world in the kingdom of Soth.

"I think I can—"

"I think it should work. ”

The two said in unison, and after speaking, they looked at each other and laughed, so there was a solution to the shortage of teachers.

"And where does the money come from?" Thor scratched his head, frowning again.

There are a lot of places where the Soth Kingdom uses money now, although the paper mill is his personal industry, but usually Thor stores his money as a spare fund for the Soth Kingdom, and now the return of the blank paper will take a while to reflect.

But not only has the country just been established, but now that the next war is about to take place, funds must be very tight, even if it is to buy the land for the library and the school, I am afraid that it is already a lot of money that the Finance Bureau is very unwilling to come up with.

If it weren't for Saul's mouth, this school and library might not have been able to run it, but Saul also understood Diana's difficulties, he couldn't let the Finance Bureau provide funds to support free education now, then Diana would have to kill him.

And where do ordinary people know the importance of knowledge, in a kingdom where the tradition of reverence for the strong is still preserved, everyone yearns for an invincible warrior like Kratos, not some wise strategist.

Thor is worried that someone will pay to send his children to school.
