Chapter 18 - Chapter 18: ,education

The cabinet meeting ended smoothly. Ferdinand was very satisfied with the division of labor. He obtained the supervision of the Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Education.

Compared with other industries, the cabinet attaches significantly less importance to agriculture, and the plans made involve less agricultural development, which gives Ferdinand an opportunity.

部 The Ministry of Education is even simpler. Bulgaria's state treasury has no money. Except for the opposition party, which criticizes the government, the education sector has stopped paying teachers for months.

Since the king Ferdinand was willing to take over, they naturally did not mind throwing away a mess, anyway, now the education funding is still owed.

Jeffrey Dinan took two hot potato, but was very happy.

Bulgaria is an agricultural country with scarce mineral resources. The easiest achievement in the short term is agriculture.

Compared with the utilization rate of land in China, Bulgaria, like European countries, is too far apart. If the area of ​​cultivated land in Eastern Bulgaria can be doubled.

Of course Ferdinand didn't plan to do that, it was completely unnecessary. It has an area equivalent to that of Jiangsu Province, and now has a population of more than 3 million, less than one tenth of the population of Jiangsu in the same period.

Jeffrey Dinant plans to vigorously build water conservancy, promote advanced agricultural technologies, and increase grain production. (The agricultural development in the Balkans is lagging behind, and the yield of grain per mu in the same period is less than two-thirds of that in Western Europe.)

As long as he does this well and has the support of the peasant class occupying nine levels of the total population, he will be invincible. To this end, Ferdinand is willing to pay hundreds of thousands of pounds.

As for the education world, it's better. History tells him that as long as the school is controlled, public opinion is controlled. Mastering the country's next generation will master the country's future.

之 The priority is to build a university. The first Bulgarian university in history, Sofia University, was established in 1888.

I was also this university, which created Bulgaria's earliest socialism, the Scientific Society, and laid the foundation for a proletarian revolution.

Jeff Ferdinand's efficiency is enough to shame the cabinet. Knowing that the treasury had no money, he did not go to Stam's cabinet.

On January 10, 1888, just after the Cabinet clearly defined the division of labor, Ferdinand, as the Grand Duke of Bulgaria, issued the second decree, "Issuing 5 Million Lev Education Bonds" (Note: 1 Lev = 1 Franc = 0.2903225 Grams of gold)

The whole nation was shocked to know that due to the civil war, Bulgaria's fiscal revenue in 1887 was less than 40 million levs.

This move was quickly supported by educators and the enlightened bourgeoisie. Although the interest rate was only slightly higher than the bank deposit, and the term was as long as ten years, everyone still generously unpacked and sold half of it in just one month.

Sophisticated Ferdinand, of course, knows that the benefits are maximized. Not only did he subscribe for 300,000 levs in a high profile, he also invited the media to oversee the use of this fee, and his popularity increased for a while.

Anyway, he doesn't intend to deduct education funds. The media's supervision is stricter, and it is only the people who are unlucky. He wouldn't mind if he could catch a few roundworms.

I got the money, in addition to reimbursement of teachers' arrears over the years. With regard to funding, the first university in Bulgaria, the Bulgarian University, was built.

The rest of the money has not yet been moved. The Cabinet tried to pay attention several times and was blocked by Ferdinand's special sentence.

He was anxious for Stam, and followed Ferdinand's example, issuing bonds. However, his appetite is not as small as Ferdinand. The funding required for the Five-Year Plan is an astronomical figure for the government.

I took 50 million levs of railway bonds immediately, followed by 30 million levs of industrial bonds.

Bulgarians are not so rich and the government's credibility is not so high. For millions of educational bonds, they carried forward the patriotism and ate their teeth.

I can't do anything about the government-issued industrial bonds and railway bonds. It is embarrassing to sell hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Ferdinand didn't worry about the cabinet's troubles. He is still worried about the university's first presidential candidate, and must be highly respected to convince the education community.

Among the people in Bulgaria's education sector, there is no such candidate. As in this country, most international students are young enough and do not have that qualification. The older generation was conservative and lacked an international perspective and could not keep up with the times.

He really couldn't find Ferdinand, and set his sights on the Ministry of Education.

部长 "Minister Chekov, what do you think of the Ministry of Education about the President of Bulgaria University?" Ferdinand

"Her Grand Duke, now the education industry has been arguing, there are three people who are eligible to nominate, but their ability is hard to convince!" Education Minister Chekov said with a headache

Jeff Ferdinand knew that the lack of capacity was a minor issue. The key was that all three of them were opponents of Stam's cabinet. Veteran educators belong to the pro-Russian faction, and the cabinet definitely wants to prevent them from taking office.

"So what about the others? You always have to find a suitable candidate. You can't drag it down like this. The school is still empty! What to do then, you should go back and think about it!" Ferdinand dropped the pressure on the lease. Cove

This made Chekov very difficult. If UU reads www.uukanshu.com from these three people, how should he explain to the cabinet? If you choose someone else, how can you convince the education community?

Chekov, who had a headache, suddenly lighted up, and thought of a suitable candidate, or let the king leave his job. Once this idea came out, I couldn't stop it anymore.

First of all, the cabinet will not oppose and can suppress the opposition. Secondly, the education industry has also explained the past. At least there will be no need to worry about education funding in the future. This reason is enough to make the three old stubborn ones quit.

契 On the way back, Chekov is thinking and getting better. If Ferdinand were to be the president of the university, the presence of the Ministry of Education would definitely be greatly strengthened, and the king would be able to stand up to the funds without having to bear the pressure of the cabinet.

I ca n't do it. It 's not something I can do alone. Just contact the education community and let them get ahead. If anyone opposes, let him be responsible for solving education expenses!

Unexpectedly Chekov's expectations. After the news was released, the contentious issue in the education community stopped immediately.

For the benefit of everyone, or for their own rice bowls, they can receive their salaries on time. Almost all teachers have publicly stated that they support Ferdinand as principal.

Ferdinand was stunned, and co-owning himself was the one to be expected. I think it's impossible now. If I am a foreigner, I won't do anything for half a year, and I won the support of everyone.

契 Even if Chekov repeatedly said that he could not convince Ferdinand, he did not want to be a principal, and then was scolded by the educators.

"Carr, send someone to check, what's the matter?" Ferdinand decided to figure out the situation.

"Master, this is actually very simple!" Carl said calmly.

"Oh, what about you?" Ferdinand
