Chapter 1687 Graduates of the School of Architecture and Engineering
Daming College of Architectural Engineering in Xincheng, South District of Beijing, is the only professional construction factory college in Daming. Students of Daming College of Architectural Engineering have always been very popular.
Whether it is a commercial firm engaged in real estate construction, building bridges, paving roads, building ports, etc., professional talents like them are indispensable. And now the infrastructure construction in Ming Dynasty is in full swing, so graduates of the college often have people before they graduate.
Started to come to the school to recruit people.
In the school gymnasium, construction engineering firms, railway firms, highway firms and the like from all over the Ming Dynasty gathered here, each holding a tin trumpet and shouting constantly.
"Jingcheng Real Estate is recruiting five construction engineers. They are required to obtain Level 1 construction engineer qualifications. The annual salary is 200 taels of silver plus incentives and project bonuses. The work location is in Beijing!"
"Tianjin Real Estate is recruiting three construction engineers. They are required to obtain Level 1 construction engineer qualifications. The annual salary is 200 taels of silver plus incentives and project bonuses. The work location is Tianjin!"
"Luban Bridge Construction Company is recruiting seven bridge engineers. They are required to graduate from the bridge construction engineering major and obtain the corresponding bridge construction engineering qualifications. The annual salary is 200 taels of silver, plus subsidies for work in other places, project dividend rewards, and the work location is uncertain!"
"Tianjin Port Construction Company is recruiting three port construction engineers. They are required to major in port architectural design and obtain relevant construction engineering qualifications. The annual salary is 200 taels of silver, plus incentives and dividends. The working location is uncertain!"
"The United Commercial Bank of South Africa recruits a number of construction engineers, gives them the treatment of seventh-grade colonial officials, and requires them to immigrate to the South African colony. There are also talent immigration rewards. The treatment is generous, and the whole family can immigrate!"
"The Ministry of Industry of Ningguo recruits a number of construction talents and gives them the treatment of seventh-grade officials in Ningguo. They are required to immigrate to Ningguo. There are also talent immigration rewards. The treatment is generous and the whole family can immigrate!"
""
The gymnasium is very lively. There are many commercial companies coming here to recruit people, and the conditions offered are also quite generous. At least the annual salary starts at 200 taels of silver, and there are also rewards and dividends. This kind of treatment will be worth it to future generations of civil engineering majors.
When people see it, they will probably burst into tears.
The annual salary of 200 taels of silver is not very high. Ordinary workers also get 60 to 70 taels of silver a year. If they do backbreaking work and swear, it will be even higher.
The annual salary of 200 taels is indeed very average, but there are also rewards and dividends. This is the bulk of the income, and this is the kind of income you can have just after graduation.
After working casually for a few years, you will be able to become an important person in charge of each project, and your salary will increase.
There is no way, they are doing professional work. There is only this one architectural engineering college in the entire Ming Dynasty, and there is no other semicolon.
Without them, you simply cannot build high-rise buildings, bridges and ports, or you cannot build them well at all. Without professional design and construction, you cannot build qualified buildings, bridges, ports, etc.
In addition, when professional people do professional things, they can also save a lot of manpower, material and financial resources, so they are very popular. There are even overseas vassals and colonies that come here to recruit people, and the conditions offered are better than those of the previous ones.
It's generous, and you can directly go to work as an official overseas.
It can be said that for students in the School of Architecture and Engineering, although they are not as good as those scholars who took the imperial examination, in this era, they are still highly sought-after and in-demand talents, and they still have great prospects.
Each of them is only eighteen or nineteen years old. In later generations, they would only be at the age of graduating from high school and just entering college. However, now, they have become popular as soon as they graduate, and everyone is vying for the talents they want.
Even if you go to overseas vassals or colonies, you can start directly as a seventh-grade official, which is much better than the college students of later generations.
Knowledge is very valuable in this era.
"Yang Chun, where do you plan to work after graduation?"
Here at the entrance of the gymnasium, two graduates from the School of Construction Engineering are preparing to attend a job fair to find themselves a satisfactory job after graduation.
"Just here in the capital. As you know, I'm a native of the capital and my parents won't let me leave the capital."
Yang Chun thought for a moment and said, "What about you?"
"I don't know yet. I kind of want to go overseas. My parents have been farmers for generations. They hope that I can get ahead. If I go overseas, I can at least become a seventh-grade official."
"Furthermore, it has only been three years since Senior Chen went to Ningguo, and he has already been promoted from a seventh-rank official to a fifth-rank official. Maybe he will become a third-rank official in Ningguo in a few years."
"There is a shortage of talented people in overseas vassal states. If we go there, it will be easier to become an official and we will be promoted quickly."
"In this way, my family will have an official, and our parents will be happier,"
Du Li thought for a while and replied, he and Yang Chun were roommates, and they were also graduates of Hongzhi in the 20th and 5th years. They originally graduated in the second half of the year, but the students at the School of Architecture and Engineering basically graduated in the first three years.
I have already completed all the courses and obtained relevant qualification certificates. In the fourth year, I usually start internships and work.
"It doesn't matter if you go overseas. If you want to become an official here in the Ming Dynasty, you can only rely on the imperial examination. But we can't participate, so we can't become an official."
"It's different in overseas colonies and vassal states. Most of them promote talents in a very informal way. Many seniors from various colleges have been highly employed overseas."
"And when you go overseas, you can also get good living conditions. Most of them can get a large amount of land as rewards, and many of them have slave points. You can live a comfortable life there."
"It's just that once you go overseas, I don't know when we brothers will meet each other in the future."
When Yang Chun heard Du Li's words, he nodded in support, but he also felt a little more sad.
Scholars in the Ming Dynasty valued the relationship between fellow villagers, classmates, and contemporaries the most. Although they were not traditional scholars, this tradition has been maintained.
The two of them have been together for four years at the College of Engineering and Architecture. They went to school together and lived in the same dormitory. They still have a deep relationship. Now that they have to say goodbye, it is sad and sad.
"We will meet each other if we are destined to, and we have agreed that we will come back to our alma mater every ten years to get together. No matter what, I will come back."
Du Li smiled and said.
While talking, the two of them also walked into the stadium and started running towards their respective goals.
Yang Chun was planning to go to the local trading houses in the capital to see if he could stay and work in the capital. Du Li went straight to the recruitment positions in the colonies of Ningguo, South African Colony, Western United Trading Company, and Chu State.
Then go and start asking in detail about the benefits you can enjoy when working in these places.
There are many people in the entire gymnasium, including a large number of recruiting units and graduates.
"Dang~dang!"
At this time, there was a sound of gongs and drums, and a group of officials came to the gymnasium, and then shouted loudly: "Shuntianfu Urban Construction Bureau recruits three graduates from the School of Architecture and Engineering, and gives them the treatment of seventh-grade officials, and they are treated as candidates."
Born in Beijing, he is responsible for urban construction planning in Beijing. If you are interested, come and sign up now!"
"The treatment of officials of the seventh grade is regarded as the same as a judge's family background?"
"Urban Construction Bureau?"
"Responsible for urban construction planning?"
The originally bustling gymnasium suddenly became quiet, and when many students heard this, they immediately went into overdrive and rushed over to queue up to sign up.
"I go!"
"The seventh-grade official is still here in the capital."
When Yang Chun heard this, his whole body became excited.
There is such a good thing, that you can directly become a seventh-grade official, and it is also regarded as a juren. This is amazing.
You must know that it is very difficult to pass the Juren exam. Just look at Wen Zhengming and you will know that after taking the exam all his life, he never even passed the Juren exam. I don’t know how many scholars want to pass the exam.
However, now, Shuntian Prefecture has actually given three quotas directly, granting them the rank of seventh-grade official, and it is also regarded as the same as the official origin.
This excited many students, and they all ran over to sign up without caring about anything else.
"Oh, what a pity, I've already signed the contract."
"If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have been so hasty."
"The seventh-grade official is from Juren."
"This is a major event to honor our ancestors. I didn't expect that we would have such an opportunity in the Ming Dynasty. It seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is now the prefect of Shuntian Mansion, which is even more incredible."
All the students who had signed contracts with employers immediately felt regretful.
For students like them who study architectural engineering, they always feel that they are one step lower than traditional scholars, because traditional scholars can take the imperial examination and become officials.
But for students like them who are learning new things, they cannot take part in the imperial examination, and what they studied is not eight-legged essay or the like, so naturally they cannot become officials.
This is obviously a cruel fact. After all, the purpose of studying is to become an official. Only when you become an official can you truly honor your ancestors.
That is to say, for these new graduates, the job remuneration is quite good, there are many employers, and the conditions offered are also very good.
Only then do they feel that what they have learned is useful and valuable. Otherwise, the book will be read in vain. If, like the college students of later generations, they cannot even support themselves after studying, there will definitely be no one to read it.
Already.
Now Shuntian Prefecture is recruiting three graduates, and they will be directly treated as seventh-grade officials, and they will be treated as if they are from Juren. In future generations, this will be treated as a director-level treatment, and they are still working in the capital. It will definitely make countless people sharpen their heads.
