"I said Xinghua, did you forget the dozens of students who came back from Japan with Wang Qiang and Lu Wei?" Zhu Yujian said with a smile.

"Oh, didn't they arrange to study in Guozijian?"

When Wang Qiang brought people back from Japan, he handed them over to Luo Jian, Luo Jian and Liu Lan discussed it, and felt that of course these Japanese students could not study with Chinese students, at least not let them come into contact with the knowledge of natural science.

"I said Xinghua, are you busy and confused? Now that there are no more Guozijian generals, I came today just to ask how to settle these Japanese? A few days ago, the Japanese shogunate sent people to ask these students to study natural sciences with our students, but I didn't agree to them. ”

After listening to Zhu Yujian's words, Luo Jian remembered that the government was preparing to change Nanjing's Guozijian to Nanjing National University, which would be the first comprehensive university in the country.

In the past three years, with the technical support of Luo Jian and Liu Weimin, the basic technologies of Yangzhou and Nanjing have developed rapidly, but these technologies are biased towards application, which is also determined by practical needs.

But without the support of theory, these technologies will soon encounter a bottleneck in development, this Luo Jian and Liu Weimin also realized it early on, but due to the situation, they can only choose the useful one first.

Now that the situation has eased, if we do not develop basic theories, I am afraid that the path of future development will be distorted, which is why both Luo Jian and Liu Weimin feel that it is necessary to raise theoretical research to an important height, and this is the reason why Nanjing National University was founded.

Of course, the current university cannot be compared with the university of Luo Jian's time and space, at the theoretical level. Luo Jian estimated that the third-rate college students in that time and space would have a higher theoretical level than the current Mr. Song Yingxing.

Luo Jian and Liu Weimin's current thinking is that they can't engage in education like their own time and space. Students from primary school so many subjects. In the end, there are very few that can be applied in practice, and now theoretical training can only start with singles.

The so-called "singles one" is actually to first learn some basic knowledge, roughly equivalent to the level of primary school students when they graduated, and then according to their interests and hobbies, they choose physics, chemistry or one of the branches to study and research, of course, mathematics as the foundation of each subject is to be learned.

The advantage of this is that students can quickly enter a certain level in a certain field, such as Liu Cui'e is a typical example. Due to a certain cultural foundation, he has devoted himself to studying chemistry for several years, and without the need for very advanced mathematical knowledge, his level is now very good, and he is not even worse than Liu Weimin in the application field.

Since the completion of the research on steam locomotives, Song Yingxing handed over all this stall to Fang Yizhi, and began theoretical study and research by himself, and his research direction is mainly in physics.

Nanjing National University was established, and Luo Jian invited him to serve as the president, and Song Yingxing had no opinion on teaching and educating people. happily agreed.

Think carefully about the four of you coming to this time and space, if you say the most satisfying thing. Luo Jian felt that he had brought the idea of science and technology to him, so that everyone he came into contact with him could realize the importance of science and technology.

Even the Manchu court now attaches importance to it, and even sends technical spies to steal learning, Luo Jian is a little funny. Japan, which was originally extremely closed off from the rest of the country, now wants to learn technology, and Luo Jian feels that he must think carefully.

"Xinghua, what are you thinking?"

Luo Jian thought of a question, and when he thought deeply, he was easy to be in a daze, and people who were familiar with him understood his habit, Zhu Yujian naturally knew, seeing that Luo Jian was in a daze again, knowing that he must be thinking about a certain problem, he didn't bother him, holding the cup and drinking water slowly, seeing that Luo Jian's face had changed a few times, he asked.

"Hehe, I'm sorry, I'm thinking about this education problem, our education has to be paid attention to, ten years of trees, a hundred years of people, we have to start with the baby. However, we can't teach these students in Japan as our own. Luo Jian smiled, and then said.

"Xinghua, the people of the Japanese shogunate are staring at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs all day long, it's really annoying, what do you say?" Zhu Yujian said with some distress.

"That's it, if it doesn't work, arrange them to be apprentices in which factory, they can learn some skills, but they can't be systematic, where to go and wait for me to discuss with Xiao Liu."

Luo Jian thought for a while, and felt that if Japanese students were still allowed to learn Confucianism, the Japanese would definitely not do it again, and then they would make things happen, and now solving the national problem was the top priority, but they would no longer have the energy to go on another expedition to Japan.

After Zhu Yujian left, Luo Jian sat on the sofa alone and pondered.

Although the biggest expenditure of the Nanjing government is education spending, which has exceeded military spending a lot, Luo Jian still feels that there are some shortcomings, and the most critical problem is the serious shortage of teachers.

At the beginning, Song Yingxing and Wang Xu trained a group of talented teachers in Yangzhou, these teachers taught while learning, and finally coped with the most basic education, Luo Jian estimated that it was equivalent to the level of the third or fourth grade in mathematics, and it would be difficult for them to teach deeper.

At present, the territory of the Nanjing government is much larger than when it was in Yangzhou, and the current education in many provinces is still basically blank.

Thinking of this problem, Luo Jian was a little anxious, this is the case now, when the Manchus are driven out in the future, the territory of the whole country is so big, what about education?

"Xinghua, come and help me." Liu Lan stood on the stairs and shouted, Liu Lan has been pregnant for almost nine months, and the doctor invited to check the pulse, it is estimated that she will give birth in the next month, and she is a little inconvenient to move now.

Luo Jian went over and helped Liu Lan to the sofa and sat down, and Liu Lan asked, "What are you thinking?" Thinking so intrigued? ”

"I'm thinking about education, now there is a serious shortage of teachers on our side, and when the whole country is liberated in the future, how far will it be lacking?" Luo Jian explained to Liu Lan.

"You're anxious again, aren't you, isn't our national university about to be established? Once the university is on the right track, the cultivation of talents will increase exponentially, and there is no need to rush this. Liu Lan said with a smile.

"I also thought about what you said, today I went to the military factory to take a look, the situation is very good, if this development continues, we will be able to solve the national problem next year, and then we will be a little unable to keep up with it when we come again, I think we will set up the normal college now."

"I think it's okay, didn't you just confiscate Fan Da's traitor's family property? It's not a big problem to build a few teacher training colleges, right? ”

"It's not a big financial problem, but you have to have a teacher to run a teacher, so where can you find so many teachers now? I thought I would just become a teacher myself. Luo Jian said with some annoyance.

"Xinghua, I think you have been a little impatient in the past two years, such a big country, the current level of productivity is still so low, you want to directly bring her into modernization and modernization in a short period of time, how is it possible? The so-called ten-year tree and hundred-year tree tree people mean that talent training requires long-term accumulation? ”

Liu Lan's words made Luo Jian fall into contemplation again, starting from the all-out offensive launched this year, Luo Jian felt that there was a kind of impatience guiding him, and he always wanted to promote the development of the country in the shortest possible time.

"Xinghua, education is a process of laying the foundation, the so-called speed is not reached, this really has to be done slowly, and when the national universities have trained the first batch of talents, we will slowly train the teaching team, ten or twenty years later, are you still afraid that we will fall behind Europe?" Liu Lan saw that Luo Jian's face had been changing, and knew that he was in a hurry, so she persuaded Wen Yan on the side.

"Yes, let's get our first university done first, some things are really in a hurry." Luo Jian slowly figured it out.

Nanjing National University was preparing to enroll 2,000 students in the first batch, and based on the current situation, both Luo Jian and Shi Kefa decided to make the age of new students very lenient, and there was almost no restriction on the age of newly enrolled students.

In order to let the applicants from all over the country know the content of the examination, a few months ago Luo Jian specially asked Song Yingxing to arrange a group of people to bring teaching materials to Hangzhou, Fuzhou, Guangzhou and Guilin to give tutorials in advance.

The entrance exams are scheduled for March next year, and there are still a few months for candidates to prepare, while the school also needs to make further preparations.

In previous years, Luo Jian had to run the troops, but this year it is not good, and now the troops are very scattered, north to Jinan, Shandong, south to Liangguang and Hunan, this is really going to run down, I'm afraid it will take four or five months to go out.

With Huang Degong in the north, there is no need to send people again, and the troops in the south are ready to let Yibang take people on a trip this year, which is not only to comfort the troops, but also to understand the basic situation of the two armies in the south.

Shi Kefa really wanted to expand the troops, Luo Jian didn't agree, it's not that he didn't want to, now the Yangzhou one-type rifle has been discontinued, the production of new rifles has not yet come up, and even if the new production line of bullet production is completed, I am afraid that it will not be possible to protect hundreds of thousands of troops for the time being.

There were still dozens of days left before the year, and Luo Jian and his gang began to consider the division of administrative divisions and the further reorganization of government agencies.

This was the first to be put forward by Luo Jian, and he felt very different about the titles of officials in various places, especially the main officials, like the prefect of Yangzhou Prefecture, which made him feel very incompatible with the development of the current society.

Luo Jian felt that the setting of the four-level government agencies from the provincial level to the lower level in another time and space had been relatively reasonable after many years of changes, and it was okay to come directly as usual, and the plan proposed on this basis was quickly approved by everyone, and finally the establishment of provincial, municipal, county, and township government agencies in another time and space was established.

In fact, these government agencies already exist, and now they are just changing their names and standardizing and clarifying some functions, but the administrative divisions at this time are quite different from those time and space, and this cannot be copied, which will cause a lot of contradictions.

On this day, Luo Jian was still in the General Staff Headquarters to study the specific administrative divisions of various places, and Steward Luo, who never came to Luo Jian's office, came. (To be continued.) )
