Chapter 512: Please resign to avoid trouble

On the one hand, he recognized the legitimacy of the Southern Emirates and its occupation of the "Crescent Coast", and gave up his aid to Najd, leaving Abdul Aziz alive without a place to bury him, and completely severing his family, showing concessions to China. But on the other hand, he hooked up with the Republic of Turkey, which had fought against each other before, and asked it to annex the land of the Najd Plateau to suppress the Southern Union Emirates and prevent China's power from overextending in the Middle East.

It is said that the British are really pragmatic, when they can suppress it, they will be rampant and domineering, once they find that they can't hold it down, they can immediately show a smile and wrap it up, this kind of ability is passed down from home, Li Hui has never been able to learn, fortunately, it seems that there is no need to learn......

Although the first five-year plan was only a little more than halfway through, it was almost certain that it would be completed ahead of schedule, and after the opening of the school year on September 1, 1913, Chinese education reached an important indicator that seemed less noticeable than the practical significance of universal nine-year compulsory education: the admission rate of junior high school graduates exceeded 95%. That is to say, almost all of the junior high school graduates who cannot be admitted to high school have entered various technical schools and technical secondary schools to learn vocational skills, and no longer need parents to help their children ask for masters, which not only greatly reduces the burden on the families of those students, but also can learn more professional and socially needed expertise.

More importantly, this means that the pace of training skilled workers and other industrialized workers in China has accelerated to an unprecedented level, and considering that China has already universalized nine-year compulsory education and greatly exceeds the entire West's population of more than 700 million, China will produce more qualified workers every year than the entire Western world, and more than twice as much as the West has not yet fully universalized compulsory education!

What is this concept? This means that the number of qualified workers in China is enough to support more than twice the size of the entire West in the future, and in the current situation that China's industrial system has formed a virtuous cycle of self-circulation, as long as there is no internal chaos and no external enemies are defeated, this goal can be achieved in the not-too-distant future. At that time, China's total economic volume and comprehensive national strength will be stronger than all other countries in the world combined.

However, there are always two sides to the story, and while the surge in the number of qualified workers has cleared the way for China's industry to continue to develop at a rapid pace, it has also brought terrible employment pressures unprecedented in world history......

Nearly 20 million new people are added every year (although the total population is only slightly more than half of that of later generations, due to the age structure, there are only a lot more young people of high school age.) Labor force goes into society, let alone in China, and even the whole world now can't accommodate it.

As for China, which is fully developed in the future, even with the limit of 20% per year (after the Republic of China entered the stage of steady development, the fastest industrial growth year is just over 20%, no matter how hard you try, it will not be able to go higher. The rate of industrial growth will not be at least seven years from now, and in fact it is impossible to achieve such a terrible rate every year, and it is difficult to say whether it will be achieved in 15 years, taking into account the increase in labor productivity brought about by technological progress and other reasons.

Therefore, once so many technical school and technical secondary school graduates graduated, China at that time could not provide enough jobs for so many new workers in any case, which was dangerous......

Anyone with a modicum of common sense knows how terrible it can be when there are a large number of young people in society who can't find a job for a long time. Therefore, when the Ministry of Education was jubilant, many people who understood were worried, and Prime Minister Yuan Shikai directly handed over his resignation to Li Hui, although he has always had the consciousness of carrying the black pot to the boss, but this time the pot is too big, and he would rather not be the prime minister than carry it, it is not a matter of death, it is sure to die, and if it is not good, it will affect his family.

As for Li Hui coming out to put the pot on his back? Hehe, Yuan Shikai never dared to be so naïve, saying that more than ten years ago, the government of the republic at that time was short of people and retained a lot of old Manchu ministers, but how many are left now? Including Yuan Shikai, there are only seven or eight hundred people left, and if the shipmaster's department is removed, there are only more than 100 people left. And what's even more terrifying is that those former colleagues who disappeared were shot or put in prison after seven or eight out of ten were found guilty, and there were not many who could retire safely, and it was precisely by such ruthless and ruthless methods that Yuan Datou could always be conscientious, honest and honest, and sit firmly "under one person, above ten thousand." There was no accident in the high position. But this time the matter is too big, it is not possible to ensure safety with a clear conscience, Yuan Datou thought about it carefully, and felt that there was no other way than to resign to avoid trouble.

"Old Yuan, you are really a smart person!" , Li Hui couldn't help but secretly praise Yuan Datou's cleverness after reading the resignation, but he would not accept this resignation anyway, because until now, there is no successor candidate who can reassure him, although several young cadres have been focused on training, but it is not enough to pick up this heavy burden at present. So Li Hui immediately changed his tone and tried to dispel Yuan Shikai's doubts, "But it's not smart enough, if it's in Western countries, this kind of problem is enough to trigger a revolution, and it's really worth worrying about." But our system is different, the central government has supreme authority and has enough resources in its hands, if it really can't work, the government can pay for the temporary support of young people who can't find jobs! ”

Li Hui's words are really not a joke, although China's industrial strength has just squeezed into the top three in the world, but because of the system, if you talk about the government's financial resources, even the British Empire, which ranks first, is far from being comparable with the Chinese Republic. But Yuan Shikai was unmoved, and pointed out on the spot that this practice of directly handing out money will only raise a bunch of lazy people, which is no different from drinking to quench thirst, and this only pushes the problem back, but does not solve the problem.
