Just when Dong Di State was having a headache, Gao Shaoyi also had a headache. Of course, the headaches for the two sides were completely opposite. Dong Di State felt very sorry for the fact that they had lost so much money.
Know what to do with the money.
Because the money was so huge, the Minister of Logistics Fang Hanye had already rushed over from Haicheng and brought more than two hundred smart men. After three days of non-stop work, they finally gave the money to
I have calculated some of them, but of course there are still many things that I don’t know how to value, so I can only register them, pack them and ship them away.
"Don't your banks keep saying there is no principal? Don't you have a lot of principal now? Put this money in the bank as principal."
Gao Shaoyi looked at the relatively tired Fang Hanye in front of him, and felt a little sorry in his heart. This man followed his father back then, and now he follows him. It can be said that he has served the entire Gao family for two generations.
"Master, you have to see what my report says. I said before that we only need 25 million silver coins to support our branches in the western provinces. But now how much money the master has given me, just
The cash and precious metals are already 190 million silver coins. Our previous reserves were already very large, and together with those unknown precious young masters, we should be the richest man in the world now."
Although Fang Hanye said he was helpless, he was very happy in his heart. When he was selected as the logistics minister of the Suppression Army, he was still worried about how to support an army. Although it is difficult to raise an army in this era,
It is difficult, but even more difficult is how to maintain this army.
So many warlords across the country have their flashes in the pan, and even have the strength to intimidate the imperial court, but why haven't they done so? It's because the economy in their territory can't keep up, and the treatment of soldiers can't keep up. After today, there is no
tomorrow, so I have a lot of worries about doing things.
But the Suppression Army has no worries about this at all. Although the Suppression Army spends more money, it makes money faster, and many places within the territory have already started a large-scale movement to resume production. After production is ramped up, then
A virtuous cycle can be formed. Before the virtuous cycle is formed, the Suppression Army's current reserves are enough to last them ten years.
"Then an empty name is of no use. I don't want to be the richest man in the world. I just want to get rid of the rule of these foreigners. You have worked hard for me during this period."
Gao Shaoyi lit a cigarette for himself. He didn't smoke in the past, but more and more things were happening to suppress the Lu army. Gao Shaoyi now had to rely on cigarettes to refresh himself. Otherwise, he wouldn't have the energy to deal with so many things.
work.
"Since we got so much money out of thin air, can some plans be carried out in advance? For example, the education for all plan."
This time Fang Hanye came to the south, in addition to counting the money, there was another very important thing. Gao Shaoyi had mentioned before that because the education level of the Daqian Empire was too low, there was no suitable candidate at all.
If we start comprehensive education for our soldiers now, there will be many useful people in ten or twenty years.
"That's for sure. It's a century-old plan based on education. Although we may not get immediate results at the moment, as long as we can persist, the rewards in the future will definitely exceed these investments. You must have a plan, right?"
"
Gao Shaoyi mentioned it before, without a detailed plan. Although trials have begun near Haicheng, if it is to be promoted nationwide, this is not a small project. Although Fang Hanye is the logistics minister,
But at that time, we also strongly demanded the comprehensive implementation of education.
It’s a pity that this sentence has been regarded as empty talk. Everyone in the country talks about paying attention to education, but education is a matter of money. Who has so much money to provide education? Some wealthy businessmen built a school nearby.
It seems okay for the time being, but the ability of wealthy businessmen to withstand crises is too poor. If the family has no money, then the school will be in trouble.
"My subordinates really have a plan, and they cannot blindly promote the national education plan. Haicheng's experimental plan is very successful. We can promote it in our own territory first, and set up a primary school in each town.
Each county has a middle school, and each province has a university. Of course, the foundation for establishing universities is not yet mature at this stage, but we are already very good at primary schools."
The old man hadn't slept all day and night. He had just rested for three hours yesterday. But when he heard that Gao Shaoyi had time to talk about education, he immediately became spiritually aware and took out a dozens-page document from his briefcase.
The plan can be said to be written in great detail, with both theory and practical records.
"Uncle Fang, you have been thinking about this for a long time. Otherwise, you would not have such a detailed plan. Since the test in Haicheng has been successful, I will give priority to approving your first phase of the plan.
Within the control area, 64 primary schools and 12 middle schools will be built.”
It took half an hour for Gao Shaoyi to have a rough look at the plan. What was done in it was indeed very exciting. If it had been in the past, Gao Shaoyi would have seen it from beginning to end, but now because there are too many things, he can divide them into
It would be nice to come out for half an hour.
Fang Hanye does things more safely. Even if there are things to do to suppress the Lu army, the number of schools is not very large. They are only around the capital and Haicheng. If he wants to carry out the second phase of the plan, it must be done in three months.
That's right. During these three months, the education department will send more than a hundred specialists to record records in various schools. Finally, all kinds of data will be integrated, and then the second phase of the plan can avoid these errors.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Guo. I have kept this plan in my mind for ten years. It only takes half an hour to write it out. But if it is really implemented, then I have to let Mr. Guo make the decision. Just now you have
One sentence is right. Education is the foundation of a century-old plan. No matter how powerful our suppressing army is, education is the cornerstone of the entire country."
Fang Hanye said with emotion that many people in the Daqian Empire have been working on this matter over the years, but in the end they all fell into disgrace. Unexpectedly, Gao Shaoyi directly agreed. This is the largest educational investment in the entire Daqian Empire...
