"Young Master, I'll go and arrange the enrollment matters now!”
"Go, recruit as many as you can. We don't lack money!”
Qin Xiao had an arrogant expression as if he did not lack money.
He did have the right to be arrogant, because the Flower Planting Professional and Technical College really did not lack money.
The system had pulled in a lot of loyalty points, and the students were learning knowledge in the academy as if they were cheating. Therefore, the speed of nurturing talents was very shocking. In a year, they would be able to produce…Oh, they had learned most of it.
In any era, talents were in high demand, not to mention the flower plantation in the 1930s. Many businessmen were willing to pay a high price to hire students from the flower plantation professional technical college to provide technical guidance.
When students received their salaries, they would give 50% to the school in private. They would keep 50% for themselves to get married and have children to support their families.
Even though the school had to take half of it, the students from the Flower Planting Professional and Technical College had to pay at least 200 yuan a month to hire them.
In the golden decade of the Republic of China, the purchasing power of the ocean was quite strong, and prices were relatively stable.
At present, the average price of rice in Donghai was 10.2 silver coins per market stone, which was more than 6 cents per catty of rice. In other words, 1 silver coin could buy 16 catties of rice, pork was about 20 - 23 cents per catty, 1 silver coin could buy 4 - 5 catties of pork, cotton cloth was about 15 - 18 cents per market foot, 1 silver coin could buy 6 feet of cotton cloth, white sugar was 15 cents per catty, vegetable oil was 2 cents per catty, and salt was 3 - 5 cents per catty.
He gave half of his salary to the school, and the other half was enough to live on.
Moreover, as the reputation of the floral technical college grew, the students whose professional knowledge and skills were far ahead of their peers shone in all walks of life, making the already scarce floral technical college students even more popular. The basic salary was still increasing.
"Uh, alright!"
The corner of Li Boyuan's mouth twitched a few times before he turned around and left.
Qin Xiao walked alone and pondered. Should he expand the school?
Two years ago, a terrifying financial crisis broke out in the western capitalist countries and they entered a terrible economic depression. A large number of banks closed down, a large number of products were overstocked, enterprises went bankrupt, the market was depressed, production dropped drastically, the number of unemployed people increased sharply, credit relations were seriously damaged, people's living standards plummeted, farmers 'income plummeted, and many people were on the verge of bankruptcy. The entire social and economic life was in chaos and paralysis.
The West suffered heavy losses, but Flower Planting and Polar Bear were safe and sound. They should seize the critical opportunity when the bandits had no energy to stir up trouble.
'I have to expand. I have to open a business school and train more outstanding students. Let the students go out and start businesses to make money for me…'
Some people would definitely ask, wasn't this operation a little too shameless?
How was this possible?
I'm the principal, the teacher who changed their fate. Isn't it only right to listen to the principal and earn money for him to spend?
Besides, the warlords, tycoons, and the four families controlled the economic lifeline, and the people were still suffering.
If the kind me controls the economy, I will definitely be able to let the people live a good life.
If he was a little bolder, why not use a three-pronged approach and secretly arrange for students to infiltrate the military, political, and economic systems?
Qin Xiao was overjoyed. The future was promising!
Principal, you didn't go fishing?"
When they passed by the teaching building, a square-faced middle-aged man wearing black-rimmed glasses and a black tunic suit walked over to greet Qin Xiao.
Liang Mingyuan, one of the professors at the Flower Planting Professional and Technology College. He was also one of the seven most educated doctors in the system's Bio-Human faculty. His major was in the field of metal engineering.
Some of the students he taught had already worked as engineers at the Jinling state-owned steel plant in Hanyang and had received many awards from the Jinling government.
"Professor Liang, you don't have classes today?"
Liang Mingyuan smiled." I'm about to go to class. It's the last class of the year. Tomorrow is the official winter break."”
Oh, I almost forgot that it was January 1st, 1932. The lunar calendar was the 24th of the winter month in 1931. There were only 30 days left before the new year.
Most of the students in the Flower Planting Professional and Technical College came from Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, but there were also students from the north, northwest, and southwest. In this era of inconvenient transportation, the journey home was far away, so Qin Xiao decided to take two months off for the winter vacation.
There were 4211 students in the school now, and 1420 of them went out to work. All of them went home on vacation, and Qin Xiao was still a little reluctant to part with them.
"It's a holiday. Donghai probably isn't peaceful anymore. It's good for the students to go home early!”
Isn't it peaceful?
"Principal, do you mean that Donghai is going to fight?" Liang Mingyuan asked curiously. That's impossible."
"Nothing is impossible. Fusang brazenly invaded the three eastern provinces last September and was generally opposed by the international community represented by the International Alliance. In order to divert the attention of the international community, I feel that Fusang will stir up trouble elsewhere. As the only international city that grows flowers, East China Sea should be Fusang's first choice.”
"Presumptuous, shameless Fusang shorty!”
Upon hearing this, Liang Mingyuan, who had an extremely high IQ, was furious after thinking about it for a moment. This was because there was a 90% chance that Qin Xiao's guess would become the truth.
Strangely enough, the memories and thoughts of the System Bio-Humans were maintained at the time they were summoned. They would not be ahead of time. Only their knowledge was at the level of 1950.
It wasn't hard to understand why Liang Mingyuan was angry. He was a normal person with blood, flesh, and patriotic thoughts.
"Principal, I suggest that we issue an early warning so that the Jinling government can be prepared.”
"Mm, that's exactly what I'm thinking. Old Liang, don't make a fuss about it so as not to attract unnecessary trouble.”
Qin Xiao agreed verbally, but in his heart, he did not plan to tell Chang Kaishen because he did not want to have anything to do with the National Government.
The floral technical college was independent, and no one could interfere. This was also the reason why Chang Kaishen had tried to rope him in time and time again, giving him official positions and military ranks in an attempt to control the floral technical college but failed. Qin Xiao did not care about him!
If you have the ability, you can use force. I'll disband the academy directly or move overseas. Those who know the ropes and the western powers are more than happy to have a good life.
Chang Kaishen wasn't a fool. He knew how important the talents nurtured by the Flower Planting College were to the extremely weak Flower Planting College. Therefore, he had no choice but to compromise and order that no one was allowed to lay their hands on the Flower Planting College.
"Go to class. I'll take a walk!"
"Principal, please…"
