Looking at everyone's hesitation, Yang Yuanzhao was slightly disappointed, but instead, he was a little relieved, for any organization, or government, education investment is a difficult point to choose, simple development, there are few countries, willing to invest money in it, Germany is because of the Franco-Prussian War reparations, of course, it is also related to its own attention, as for Japan, won the Sino-Japanese War in the First Sino-Japanese War, and obtained more compensation than they imagined, they used this money to lay the foundation of industry in one fell swoop, And the initial beginning of universal education, in this way, still relying on the huge gains of the First World War, to really stand in the forest of strong countries.

These people in front of them, it can be said, are the whole of China, one of the most broad-minded people, but in the times and their own limitations, let them in a dilemma, the huge investment in education, this investment is not a short-term can see the results, if this money is placed in other aspects, it will definitely reap huge benefits, but on the other hand, education is indeed a major relationship, for decades to come, it has a considerable impact, it is this, so that they have no choice.

Seeing everyone's hesitation, Yang Yuanzhao said calmly: "I have been in Baotou for 2 years, the development of Baotou, you see that it is my credit, but there are no these workers, everyone in the Baotou Chamber of Commerce, and even their own factories have seen some things, you can compare, whether it is the educated workers who are promoted fast, or the uneducated promotion is fast, not to mention the research institute, almost our Baotou engine, every project, every increase, is directly related to it, If Baotou has a large number of people who know Western-style knowledge, how fast will our Baotou speed! ”

Yang Yuanzhao's words. Filled everyone with longing, yes. In the past, so many wages were offered to workers, and most people complained about it. But with Yang Yuanzhao's forcible promotion, they also gradually discovered that the benefits of wages, unceremoniously said, without the high wages to attract many talents, Baotou can not develop so fast, especially some senior skilled workers, for a factory, is very important. It can be said unceremoniously that a technician above level 6 is enough to add a new level to the strength of the factory, which is not brought by advanced technology, not to mention the research institute, those inventions that dazzle them, but little by little make Baotou's power stronger and stronger, the cost is decreasing, and the quality is improving. Baotou has become popular throughout China.

However, if you say 1,000 to 10,000, you still need to invest real money, and it will be more than a year. Take those little kids, for 10 years, or even 20 years. to be able to receive the results, which is for Baotou. It is the absolute vision and the interests of the vision.

"Alright, let's do it. I'm not a fat man in one bite, but I think that the issue of education is related to the grandparents and grandchildren, ten years of planting trees, a hundred years of people, the reason why Germany has such a developed science and technology, almost all of them are decided on the podium of primary schools, we should learn from them, large class education, of course, at the beginning can not guarantee that everyone can go to school, but education as the main body, this should be grasped. ”

The expressions of many shareholders finally relaxed, and Liu Shu took the initiative to ask: "Then how much money does education occupy?" ”

"It may be a little more at first, but I can pay for the start-up capital, but after that, I hope that the funds occupied by education will not be less than 50% of the annual tax revenue!"

50% is not low, Yang Yuanzhao elaborated on the important role of education in the overall growth, others did not say anything, the current Baotou, the institution is not bloated, except for a small part of the municipal investment, others, there is not much expenditure, the urban management team counts one, the hospital counts one, the future of each organ is also counted as one, how much can these occupy, 50% invested in education, not casual squandering, which they can accept, there will be millions of figures, This number is enough for the current construction of Baotou.

They don't know how huge this money will be in the future, Baotou has become the Oriental Ruhr, it should not be said that it is the Baotou industrial base of the East, surpassing the German Ruhr in one fell swoop, and becoming a strong engine for China's development, 50% of the investment, has been insisted on for many years, every time because of the huge amount, it will be on the joint conference, a lot of quarrels and discussions, but in the end, it is still stumbling down, even if it is reduced, it is also a percentage point, or even a percentage point of a slow decrease, but the total amount, It's been crazy to improve.

The problem of education, finally solved, the remaining issues are not a problem at all, one by one the plans are clear, and even these shareholders, within the scope of their own understanding, gave Yang Yuanzhao a lot of useful construction, this Baotou City Preparatory Conference, just kept going, opened for three days, formed more than 120 topics, including every aspect of Baotou.

In this way, a meeting that has a huge influence on Baotou, and even the entire Northwest, and even China, was held so quietly, held in Baotou, more than 100 shareholders, brainstorming, put forward a lot of questions and opinions, basically, according to the methods of later generations, built a prototype of Baotou city, and education has become the top priority, not only the eight Jin merchants, through their way, vigorously recruit teachers, but also in Baotou local digging, in the past night school training, Even among the ordinary workers studying, these that emerged were rushed to the shelves, and the first batch of assemblies began for the time being.

Baotou can be said to be one of the strongest cities infiltrated by the entire Jin merchants, in the past year or so, the situation in Baotou has not been reported, on the one hand, Baotou is deliberately low-key, and on the other hand, why not they cut off the way to report upward, the strong competitiveness of Baotou goods, plus Baotou products can make money as soon as they make a move, from top to bottom, they are all bought, not to mention that it is to obtain the right to control a city, even if it is really raising the anti-flag, there is no half a year and a year, How could the center know.

In feudal society, most of the officials are familiar with deception and concealment, and the center knows enough, and it is always below that they want to know that Baotou has a huge amount of funds, plus the rights of the Jin merchants and the Hou family in the entire northwest, since it has been decided to get on the ship of Baotou, if it comes, it will be safe, and it will be done well, and all kinds of means have been used, and Baotou seems to have become a black hole, and it has completely disappeared in the vision of the Qing court.

Yang Yuanzhao's issue was quickly promoted, based on the original Baotou Chamber of Commerce, began to improve a series of urban management institutions, such as improving a variety of departments and bureaus, for example, urban management bureau, health bureau, public security bureau and other foundations, some bureaus for citizens, and some for industrial management, urban management, and even household registration, these are just a foundation and shelf, originally, just to implement one aspect, but it has become the construction of a new institution, because the shelf is big enough, the city is big enough, and there is a certain amount of dù above, The interests are evenly matched, and many families can recommend their children to come, whether it is suitable or not, let's talk about it later, and lay the foundation first.

In this way, quietly, these departments are listed, or Baotou Chamber of Commerce as the basis, said to be a dispatched agency, from this day, the situation in Baotou has undergone great changes, to determine the management plan of a city, Baotou gradually from a spontaneous commercial city, gradually towards the development of a modern city, all the strength, began to converge together, Baotou has also undergone a series of changes.

However, these changes, for outsiders, especially outside the entire Baotou city, in the system of the Qing court, are secret, but for this locality, it is ever-changing, one by one with the citizens have a close influence on the establishment of enterprises, a new system, and even Baotou city management rules, have been introduced, than before, more detailed and standardized, a certain process, affecting every family, the citizens feel the tangible benefits, such as the streets have become tidy, Commodities and sales also have a unified management, so that people are a lot more convenient, the household registration system is really implemented on a large scale, the original may take a month or two to complete the household registration, at most only three or four working days can be completed, citizens can get the food on the household registration smoothly, of course, Baotou is more supportive.

At the beginning of the change, it is also the most important education issue in the previous topic, but also under the strong promotion of Yang Yuanzhao, began to accelerate, a large number of school buildings, is under intense construction, because the start-up capital is paid by Yang Yuanzhao, the first batch of investment of 12 million silver dollars, the first moment into the accounts of the Education Bureau, the first batch of 300 different school plans, together with the construction of the entire Baotou, including 200 primary schools and 100 junior high schools,

These schools, at present, because of the relationship between teachers, can not operate at full capacity, but on the school building, are in accordance with a grade of 5 classes, primary school 6 grades, a total of about 1,200 students of the structure, 200 primary schools, at least can accommodate 240,000 primary school students, as for 100 middle schools, can also accommodate about 60,000, basically can meet the current Baotou school needs, but for the time being, it is impossible to all the horse, at most before July, The construction of 30 primary schools and 10 junior high schools will be completed to basically meet the educational needs of 30,000 to 50,000 adolescents and children, and in the next three years, they will be gradually expanded to the whole city, so as to ensure the right to education of the existing and new population, and to universalize primary and secondary education.
