Since the war is still going on, it is impossible to carry out major rectification and technological upgrading of the Tianjin Machinery Bureau, but it is only necessary to replace those unqualified officials and technicians, which is enough to make a big leap in the production capacity and product quality of the Tianjin Machinery Bureau.

With the current equipment conditions of the Tianjin Machinery Bureau, it is impossible to produce new guns such as the pointed bullet rifle and Miss 75 quickly, so Li Hui asked him to focus on ammunition. Even if pointed-nosed bullets can't be produced, low-grade consumables such as grenades, small- and medium-caliber shells, mines, explosive packs, blasting canisters, and bayonets are not much of a problem.

The resumption of production by Tianjin Machinery Bureau can somewhat share the burden of the system and reduce the consumption of some silver, which is of great significance. However, after the end of the war, the Tianjin Machinery Bureau could not escape the fate of relocation.

In Li Hui's view, it is neither safe nor conducive to secrecy to build the vital arsenal in a big city like Tianjin, so except for the naval shipyard that there is really no way, he is going to build other arsenals in the mountains, anyway, the special line railway specially laid for the Dazeshan Arsenal has been completed, and there is no need to worry too much about transportation.

Although Yan Fu said that the quality of the graduates here is far inferior to that of the Fuzhou Shipbuilding School, there are still some useful talents, and they can win all of them without damage, which is enough to make Li Hui feel deeply gratified.

However, the Tianjin Naval Academy will also be moved to Jiaodong, and she will be merged into the Qingdao Naval University under construction, and Lin Taizeng, who served as the general office of the Tianjin Naval Academy, was invited to be her first president.

Technical talents can play a role immediately after they start, and then focus on training only to further enhance their capabilities, which is a change in "quantity". In contrast, those traditional literati who took the route of scientific research (including those who became officials and those who have not yet been examined) need to learn more new things and make significant changes if they want to become useful talents in the new society.

When the rebel army advanced into Zhili, there were still many scholars who stayed in Beijing because of running for officials or gathering to discuss the Sino-Japanese war, and as a result, when the rebel army came, these soldiers were all trapped in Beijing.

In addition, as the national capital, Beijing has the largest number of officials in the city, except for a very small number of people who dared to resist and were suppressed by the rebel army, the rest also became prisoners of the rebel army.

Whether it is a scholar who has not yet become an official, or an official of the Manchu Qing Dynasty before, they all belong to the old literati in Li Hui's mouth, and how to deal with this group of people can be said to be a major matter related to the Datong Party and the ********. Because Beijing will be a model that will become the basis for dealing with millions of old literati across the country (including children who have not even been admitted to Xiucai) in the future

"These old literati, if you want to sum it up, have a certain cultural foundation, but they are not very useful under the new form of government. What's even more troublesome is that these people are not of the same mind as me, so what should I do with them? Li Hui thought with some sorrow, transformation is naturally necessary, but the question is what to do with those who can't be transformed?

"You can't put it back to fend for yourself no matter what!" This is Li Hui's first conclusion, before the destruction of the Manchu Qing Dynasty and the cutting off of the imperial examination, those old literati have been offended enough, if they are sent home directly without arrangement, these scholars who lack professional skills will inevitably fall into the embarrassment of food and clothing, and they will inevitably hate the new government even more, coupled with the pressure of survival, they are very likely to take risks.

Although it is said that "scholars rebelled, it will not be successful for three years." But if they are forced to the point where they have to rebel, then the scholar is no longer a scholar, and the threat of a literate thief is much greater than that of a pure old man.

Although Li Hui is not afraid of their rebellion, it is better to have less, it is better to have as little as possible, there is nothing more harmful to the country's vitality than civil strife, even if Li Zicheng can't come out of it, it will be very troublesome if there are a few Wang Lun's words

"Moreover, the literacy rate in China is extremely low, and it would be a pity to give up so many literate talents, or at least potential talents. Even if they can't be transformed, they must be given a job that can at least provide food and clothing, and there are many positions that require a certain level of education to be competent anyway. Li Hui actively used his brain and thought, "Those who have been reformed more thoroughly, even if they are officials and join the army, there is no problem, the key is that those who have not been reformed thoroughly, or even those who cannot be reformed at all, among which the few people who have completely lost their ability to work due to old age or illness can be raised by the country, but healthy young adults must work!" The state can't afford to raise it, and it can't afford to waste it! ”

"Let them be Chinese teachers in primary and secondary schools? This is a big demand, and they should be easily qualified and psychologically acceptable. Teachers should not only teach students knowledge, but also help them shape the correct three views and cultivate good habits, especially teachers in primary and junior high schools, if a large number of old literati are used to do it, I am afraid that there will be a lot of hidden dangers, but to use these people for adult literacy.

"I'd rather only engage in compulsory education at the primary school level for the time being, and then print more self-study textbooks and dictionaries to facilitate young people's self-study, rather than let those old literati have the opportunity to leave a poisonous legacy to future generations", thinking of printing books, Li Hui's heart suddenly moved, and he had a good idea, "Why don't you let them become typesetters?" Anyway, we have to print a lot of books, not only those that are urgently needed now, such as primary school textbooks, but also some of them can be printed out first, such as secondary school and university textbooks, reference books, popular science books, etc., and put them directly in bookstores for self-study."

Because Chinese characters are far more complex than pinyin characters, the level of education required by typesetting workers is naturally much higher than that of Western countries, and it is not a worker and peasant who can get rid of illiteracy in a short period of time can be competent, but those old literati have a good foundation in writing, as long as they spend a little time (it is much easier to learn simplified characters in traditional Chinese than in those who can simplify characters) to learn Chinese pinyin and simplified characters, they will definitely be competent.

Moreover, there are two advantages to letting the old literati who cannot be reformed be typesetting workers, the first is that the physical exertion is not too large, even if the old literati are generally thin and weak, they are generally competent; The second is that it is not easy to make a ghost, if you don't make a mistake in the card, the person who reviews it can see it at a glance, and there is no chance to pass on your thoughts to the reader, and it will not be harmful. )
