Regarding the hundred technical schools mentioned by the officials of the Ministry of Rites, Li Xuan felt that their steps were a bit big, and it was easy to pull eggs.

If 100 technical schools are divided into many years, there is naturally no problem, but they are eager for quick success, and the plan they put forward is to be completed within five years, and they still think that this kind of technical school is an ordinary elementary school.

It's not so easy to complete the plan in five years!

In order to prevent the technical school plan from evolving into a super face project, and finally failed, Li Xuan decided to press it, and the number of 100 technical schools remained unchanged, but the implementation time of this plan could be extended to ten years.

Moreover, the first three years are the time to lay the foundation, first set up ten or eight schools as a pilot, and then carry out large-scale promotion after finding out the successful experience of running a school.

In response to Li Xuan's instructions, the officials of the Ministry of Rites actually sighed a little, for them, if this plan was completed within five years, then it would have a completely different effect from the completion of it within ten years.

The most obvious is the funding!

100 schools in five years, so that they can get more funding, but if it becomes 10 years, the corresponding funds will not be so much.

However, Li Xuan, the son of heaven, said that they had to listen to it whether they wanted to listen to it or not, so the Ministry of Rites changed its plan, and we will talk about it later, and we will build five technical schools as a pilot this year.

And how to deal with technical schools, to be honest, they don't know very well, the funding is okay, the central financial support part, the local financial part of the financial part is basically the same, but the teachers are not easy to do.

This is because the curriculum of a technical school is not the same as that of a normal teacher and a university, the latter is more theoretical, while the former is more practical.

The objects of talent cultivated are all different, and the curriculum is naturally different.

The technical college trains all kinds of technical personnel for the development of industrialization, such as the ability to open machines, repair machines, ordinary accounting, etc., which are urgently needed by the industrial and commercial circles of the empire, but it is usually difficult to recruit technical talents.

At present, the entire empire is not without such technical talents, but it is very limited, and it is all enterprise-run schools.

For example, Zhaoqing Machinery Company, they are running a Zhaoqing Machinery School, mainly to train technical talents in the direction of machinery, and this school, does not recruit students, is to train employees within Zhaoqing Machinery Company and employees of cooperative enterprises, said to be a school, but in fact more like a staff training school.

On the side of Dangtu, several heavyweight defense-related enterprises directly under the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises, such as Jiangnan Arms Company and Jiangnan Iron and Steel Company, also jointly set up a training school, and each enterprise directly dispatched senior technical personnel to teach, and the students were all employees of various enterprises.

In addition, the Jiangnan Textile Company of the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises, and several private textile enterprises, also jointly funded the establishment of a textile industry training school in Shanghai, which is similar in nature to Zhaoqing Machinery School, which is mainly internal training and does not recruit students.

Ordinary people can't apply for the exam if they want to!

However, although this kind of enterprise-run internal training school does not recruit students, its curriculum and teachers are equipped with standard technical schools.

The Ministry of Rites wanted to prepare for the establishment of technical schools on a large scale, and naturally sent officials to these only technical training schools in China to inspect and learn from experience.

They were the first to complete the inspection of the Dangtu technical training school, and then did not make much changes, directly following its school system, preparing to set up a Chengtian technical school first, but the courses set up are much more than those internal training schools run by enterprises, and the source of students is also a very flexible hybrid model.

In addition to the talents needed by ordinary enterprises, such as machinery, maintenance, accounting, trade, foreign languages, and administrative management, there are also other chaotic courses such as cooks and gardens, and a total of more than 20 courses are set up.

The curriculum is simple, and it is more difficult to find a teacher, but for a government-run technical school, to find such a technical teacher, it is natural to ask the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises for help.

The teacher also solved it, and the rest is the students.

Students are divided into two parts, one is directly recruited externally, and the other part is accepted as commission trainees from major enterprises.

In order to run this first government-run technical school, the Ministry of Rites also gritted its teeth and came up with a lot of financial support, and the local finance of Chengtianfu also provided the initial funds for running the school.

The establishment of Chengtian Technical School did not cause much stir in the country, after all, it is just a school, relatively speaking, its influence is far less than the large-scale universal primary education that has been implemented since then.

In the eleventh year of Xuanping, the Ministry of Rites received millions of taels of silver, all of which were special funds for the popularization of primary education throughout the country.

The initial plan is to double the annual enrollment of existing government-run primary schools!

The specific measures are that one primary school can be added to the existing counties, and if no other primary schools are added, the scale of the existing primary schools can also be directly expanded, and the specific number of primary schools or the scale of existing primary schools can be expanded, depending on the specific locality.

In short, the core plan is to ensure that the annual enrollment of government primary schools will double compared to last year!

This huge plan has been prepared by the Ministry of Rites for several years, and it is waiting for the funds to be put in place to carry it out, so from the first month of the 11th year of Xuanping, in fact, the Ministry of Rites and the local yamen have been busy for this.

And it has also caused a huge social impact!

The Tang Dynasty Newspaper, in the first month and the February of the Imperial Newspaper, successively published more than 20 articles about the expansion of the scale of primary education in the empire, among which the weight report is that in the second half of the first month, the Holy Son of Heaven Li Xuan formally discussed and approved the plan to expand the scale of primary education at the imperial cabinet meeting.

The Son of Heaven instructed Gyeonggi and the local yamen to run schools with the mentality of educating people for a hundred years, and strive to increase the literacy ratio of the people, so as to lay a solid foundation for the industrialization process of the empire.

If ordinary people and even the education sector are concerned about basic education, then industry and commerce, especially the industrial industry, are particularly interested in a word proposed by Li Xuan, the son of heaven, in this imperial cabinet meeting, that is, 'industrialization'.

Industry, the word is not unfamiliar, but the word industrialization, for many people are a little unfamiliar, these years, although the empire has been promoting the development of industry and commerce, supporting the development of all kinds of industries, but from top to bottom, there is only such an attitude and action, but there is no very clear political slogan.

And now, the Holy Son of Heaven Li Xuan has clearly shouted the three words 'industrialization', and these three words appear in 'laying a solid foundation for the industrialization process of the empire'.

What does this mean?

This meant that even basic education was in fact in the service of industrialization, which meant that the promotion of industrialization was the main policy of the empire for many years to come.

In an imperial country like the Tang Dynasty, the political slogan put forward by Li Xuan, the Son of Heaven, through the Tang Dynasty newspaper, no one can ignore it, and the officials interpret this word in detail, and the business community also interprets this word in detail.

Subsequently, in March, the Tang Dynasty newspaper once again reported in the form of headlines that Li Xuan met with the management of several important enterprises of the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises, and at the meeting, Li Xuan, the Son of Heaven, once again put forward the three words of industrialization, and clearly instructed all enterprises in the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises to actively innovate, work hard, contribute to the industrialization process of the empire, and set an example for all enterprises in the world!

When this report came out, almost the whole world could feel that the empire was about to set off a new round of industrialization!

The officials in those places all held the Tang Dynasty newspapers, and then held various internal meetings of the yamen, and then discussed how to develop industry.

Businessmen are also grinding their fists, preparing funds to invest in the manufacturing industry, taking advantage of this opportunity to do a big job!

However, at present, it is only a public opinion briefing, and in the first three months of the eleventh year of Xuanping, the empire did not issue specific policy decrees for this purpose, and all these changes were made until April.

In April, a number of government-run banks under the Ministry of State-Owned Enterprises announced a merger to form the Datang Imperial Bank.

Because subsequently, the bank issued an announcement, that is, in the next three years, it will provide special financial support for heavy industry, and it is expected that more than 10 million taels of industrial loans will be issued.

At the same time, the Royal Bank also announced that the Royal Bank will launch a special turnaround loan fund to support the development of small and medium-sized enterprises, and the total amount is expected to reach 30 million taels of silver.

Although one of these two banks is a government-run bank belonging to the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises, and the other is a royal bank belonging to the Imperial Assets Division, it is undeniable that in fact, these two banks are typical policy banks, and if there is no official force behind these big moves, it will be impossible at all.

30 million taels of silver special industrial support loan funds, this is just the beginning!

In mid-April, the Jiangnan edition of the Tang Dynasty newspaper published that Huo Shouqi, a member of Jiangnan Province, met with more than 100 representatives of Shanghai's industrial circles when he inspected the Shanghai Industrial Zone.

As soon as the meeting ended, Jiangnan Province announced that there will be a total of three levels of financial co-funding, including Jiangnan Provincial Finance, Songjiang Prefecture Finance, and Shanghai Tel County Finance, and it is expected to invest one million taels of silver to build the 'Shanghai Second Industrial Zone' in Shanghai Special County, and prepare to build the second super-large industrial zone and create another miracle!

In the face of the fact that the third-level finance of Jiangnan Province jointly invested one million taels of silver, and the special county and county finances of Shanghai alone invested 800,000 taels of silver to build the second industrial zone, officials in other places were envious, jealous and hateful when they heard it: Nima, you are really rich!
