Can 100 million people be fed during the Kangxi period? This is simply a demographic catastrophe. From the perspective of whitewashing the Taiping, the continuous inflow of potatoes, corn, the abolition of the per capita tax, and the silver all contributed greatly to population growth from Shunzhi to Qianlong. But this growth is a quantitative growth, and there is no qualitative growth. Judging from what the British saw and heard in China, from the end of the Ming Dynasty to the Jiaqing period, the number of the population went a V-shape, and the quality almost went an L-shape.

This model of development is meaningless, almost standing still, and can easily be overtaken by other capitalist countries with a little speed.

In a purely agrarian society, land is the first factor of production, manpower is the second factor, and access to land and the number of children are the means for families and organizations to achieve their ends. In a capitalist society, technology and capital are the most important elements.

There is no shortage of technology or capital, but the talent who uses both is the most lacking. No matter how strongly organized the more than 100 million peasants, who were relatively wealthy in relation to the surrounding countries, could not resist the onslaught of industrial society, even if the enemy had a population of only 100,000.

The demand for talent by Li Ji and others has reached a crazy level, and as long as the young people who pass the graduation examination and the vocational skills test are all given ten times the annual income of the rich peasants. According to the annual income of a first-class main household equivalent to 500 Chenji money of planting income, a trainee supervisor or assistant designer who has obtained a construction supervision or design qualification certificate can get thousands of Chenji money a year's income, plus the dividends of the work unit and employee option incentives, it is not impossible to break 10,000.

The key outlets of commercial trade in the northern region can get a salary of 700 Chenji money a year, and if you complete the annual assessment well, you can also get a bonus equivalent to half of the salary, and you can add 50% of the income for each additional professional title, and if you get the top 10 professional titles, it is 40 times the income. A Level 10 mechanic earns 40 times as much as a Level 1 mechanic, which is very reasonable. No one is likely to question it. Because a level 10 technician not only needs more than 10 years of relevant work experience, but also has patents and awards for major inventions, in addition to the theoretical level equivalent to the doctoral supervisor, the practical ability must also meet the standard.

Level 10 is almost the level of crossing the public, and in the field of machinery, it can reach the same level as Qian Jin, and there are only three national treasure-level technicians who can independently produce all the equipment with the help of industrial machine tools.

A high-end talent gap is never enough. There are many wizards in the Great Song Dynasty who have an IQ of 12, but most of them are confined to the imperial examination system. The emergence of the crossing has changed the fate of many families, so that all those who know the deeds of Chenji Group can see the hope of making a fortune through any profession and even standing up for morality.

The five proud apprentices who have crossed the crowd have become rich and handsome with an annual income of more than 10 million in just 3 years. Therefore, they have become the diamond king in the eyes of many seniors and juniors of Chenji Academy.

Many large landlord families who originally cultivated and studied heirlooms saw that the speed of payment was so fast that they sent their concubines and daughters to the academy, and after they came out, they became the main force of the propaganda machine and the social division of labor. Almost every graduate can become a teacher-level senior professional title technician, and at least a 5-level worker from a junior college and vocational school.

Before entering the school, it seems that the astronomical tuition fee is also very easy in front of the student loan, and you can pay off the student loan with interest after half a year of work, although the annual interest rate of the student loan is as high as 8%, but it is basically rolled into the student fund to help more students and sisters.

In the foreign trade of the Great Song Dynasty, (to be continued......
