Chapter 355: Investing in the Sky
"It's okay to be conservative, starving people to death is a big deal." Zhu Youxiao also wants to make industrial construction and infrastructure construction faster, but if too many people are invested in it, and agriculture can't keep up, it will really starve people to death.
"Your Majesty." Jiang Dejing bowed down and said that after calculating various data, he and a group of officials from the coordination department worked out a plan that left some buffer space, and did not come up with any extreme plans.
"Then let's follow this plan!" Zhu Youxiao decided.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Soon, the financial budget for the eighth year of the Apocalypse was formulated, with a total budget of 500 million yuan, and the financial budget was unprecedentedly abundant.
The scale of investment by the state-owned capital consortium has also been set, reaching 600 million yuan, and Tianqi's profit in the past seven years has not been retained, all of which have been invested in a new round of asset construction investment, and at the same time another 300 million yuan has been borrowed from the banking system.
At this time, the function of the state-owned capital consortium came into play, and while making money, it continued to spread the money, and through a large number of construction activities, let the money flow to the hands of the people at the bottom of the society.
At the same time, local governments in the New Deal area still have a loan line of 200 million yuan, which is mainly used for local infrastructure construction.
Nearly 100 million yuan of the 500 million yuan budgeted by the central government is used for the military budget, mainly because there are a large number of production corps to be formed, and the cost of forming these production corps can actually be earned back and a lot of resources can be developed.
Administration, health care, education, pension, social assistance, and public facilities construction have divided the remaining 400 million yuan of the budget.
Administrative expenses are relatively large, and now they have adopted a ******** policy, although under the strict anti-corruption system, it is also their ability to be greedy, but of course it is best not to be greedy. The size of the administrative staff has been increasing, and the remuneration has been improved. Naturally, administrative costs are rising.
The investment in health care and education during the year was relatively large, but most of it was the construction of health and education facilities, which was included in the cost of facility construction.
Nowadays, the imperial court adopts a policy of medical care and education, and the imperial court still pays for serious illnesses, and pays for minor pains and illnesses. In terms of education, tuition fees are also charged, and the tuition fee for primary schools is generally 1.5 yuan per year, under such a fee standard. Basically, in addition to the construction of facilities invested in the early stage, the education system can basically have a slight surplus in normal times.
The education model is similar to that of later generations, in the case of insufficient teachers and finances, only forty or fifty students can be squeezed into a class, and those who have the talent for learning can go on to higher education, and those who do not have the talent for learning will enter the social work with basic culture.
Although this kind of education model is relatively rude, because of the large population, it can also obtain enough talents. As for the quality of education. It's always going to improve over time. On the one hand, with the development of the economy, the hardware facilities of education will be better and better, and at the same time, with the popularization of compulsory education, the continuous emergence of talents, and the level of teachers will continue to improve.
As for the articulation rate, it is relatively low. After all, this era is the level of productivity, and it is impossible to make students with poor grades all the way to college like later generations. In the first place, a lot of labor is wasted in schools. Second, it will lead to students finding jobs after graduation. Dirty work is tiring and tiring and unwilling to do it.
In the era when productivity is still relatively low, there is always a need for more people to do dirty work.
Therefore, today's new-style primary schools and middle schools are also thousands of troops crossing the single-plank bridge, and those who fail the exam will enter social work. Or go to a technical school.
Although this kind of education model is a bit rougher, at least the children of ordinary people can get the opportunity to get in touch with the culture, and those who are willing to work hard can get the opportunity to get ahead.
After several years of teacher training, Zhu Youxiao officially established the Ministry of Education at the end of the seventh year of the Apocalypse. As soon as the Ministry of Education was established, it promulgated the "Beizhili Compulsory Education Law", and Beizhili took the lead in implementing the compulsory education system.
At this time, the new-style primary school hall in Beizhili has been popularized in the township area.
In other provinces in the New Deal region, there are also many new-style primary schools.
In the new year's budget, about 300 million yuan has been allocated for construction, which will be used either for the construction of schools, or for the construction of water conservancy and sanitation facilities.
In the eighth year of the Apocalypse, state-owned enterprises have a task of spending money because the scale of investment will reach 600 million.
The task of spending money of the General Administration of Highways is the heaviest, and it is necessary to spend 200 million yuan on highway construction.
At the same time, nearly 200 million yuan has been invested in agriculture for the development and integration of agricultural resources, and the agricultural production capacity invested by state-owned enterprises is the mode of pursuing individual production efficiency, and the goal is to use the least agricultural population to feed the industrial population, so that the country can put more people into industrial construction.
In addition, the medical side has also been handed over to state-owned enterprises to operate, and in the eighth year of the Apocalypse, it is necessary to invest in the construction of public hospitals in the New Deal area, and at the same time, private Chinese medicine practitioners are also allowed to open medical centers.
Investment in the shipbuilding industry is also continuing, and Tianqi will invest 50 million yuan in the eighth year to build new shipbuilding capacity, as well as investment in various commodity production capacity, etc., all of which are needed by state-owned enterprises.
The focus of the eighth year of the Apocalypse is still on internal reforms, and the cabinet has come up with a further reform plan, which will include Shaanxi and Gansu in the scope of reform in the eighth year of the Apocalypse, so that the entire north will be included in the reform.
After the suppression of King Fu's rebellion, there was no suspense about the reform in the north.
The Jiangnan Shi clan and the chaebol are still continuing to wait and see, and Zhu Youxiao's reform in the north will not cause them to rebound, and the forces of these Jiangnan Shi clan and chaebol are still relatively scattered. Obviously, when the reform has not yet reached Jiangnan, these groups will not bounce back.
In the north, the landlord class was the strongest, and there was also a Jin merchant. However, after the Jin merchants were detained for the crime of collaborating with the enemy and were raided by Zhu Youxiao, the overall strength has dropped a lot, and Zhu Youxiao grasped the military power, these Jin merchants can only sit and wait for reform.
Therefore, the reform of Shaanxi and Gansu provinces will not be too resistant.
After the entire northern part of the country is included in the scope of reform, coupled with a large number of investment and construction activities, Zhu Youxiao does not have to worry about the employment situation next year, and thus does not have to worry too much about the problem of agricultural disasters. Even if the imperial court does not provide relief, the people can go out to work to support themselves, especially for the great drought in Shaanxi next year, Zhu Youxiao is already relatively sure to get through that difficulty.
