Chapter 1633: Public Security
Previously, education in Suiren City was casual and arbitrary; they would find a place, gather the children together, and start teaching. The number of teachers was small, the number of children was large, and some would stop coming after studying for a while.
This year, standardized construction of schools in Suiren City began. Even though Suiren City had not yet been fully built, the schools had to be completed. A school with a massive footprint was finished in Suiren City, located exactly where it had been selected during the initial design phase; this place is now Suirencheng Diyi Xiaoxue.
Suirencheng Diyi Xiaoxue currently only has two grades. The second grade consists of those children taught last year, whose knowledge reserves have already reached a second-grade level, so a second grade was arranged.
The two grades have a total of nearly two thousand people, all of whom are school-age children. Some who were over the age limit were also reluctantly accepted, but those any older could not be taken.
Moreover, it is currently still voluntary; it is not as if all children are forced to come. If all the children in the surrounding areas were forced to come to study, the number would likely exceed three thousand.
This is already the beginning of a screening process. Children who attend the primary school naturally have the possibility of attending Diyi Chuzhong, then Diyi Gaozhong, and finally, by the time Suirencheng Daxue is perhaps built, they will be able to hold important positions in various departments of Suiren City upon graduation. Competition is small and the threshold is low now; if they regret it later, it will be of no use.
Looking at Baoxi again, he has already sent all his children to Huaxia to study. In the future, his children will certainly be able to fill various important departments in Suiren City, though Baifeng will not let everything be so simple.
Suirencheng Diyi Xiaoxue currently has thirty teachers, all of whom are students who just graduated from Huaxia. They are all high school graduates; they did not pass the university entrance exams, but they have enough knowledge to teach primary school. Therefore, after passing a simple teacher qualification exam, these high school graduates are qualified to go to various primary schools and enlightenment classes to teach.
However, the primary schools in the city are basically staffed by university-graduate teachers. Although Huaxia lacks teachers, the best schools do not lack them; only those remote and poorer places are in short supply.
In Huaxia, if you want a teacher's Establishment System, you must also sign up for an exam. In the past, it was mandatory assignment—you were sent wherever you were told to go. Now it is more humane; they will tell you where teachers are needed and what the benefits are, and then you just sign up for the exam. In places with little competition, you can go just by signing up.
Like Suiren City, although it is far from Huaxia, everyone knows the importance of Suiren City. Huaxia will certainly invest heavily in the construction of Suiren City, so the future development speed of Suiren City will definitely be fast, and it will certainly have better prospects than the villages and towns around Huaxia City.
Therefore, even though the current Suiren City is a remote area and the city has not been built well, and living conditions are far, far worse than in Huaxia City, when Suirencheng Diyi Xiaoxue was built and started recruiting, it was immediately filled; it was very popular because everyone is optimistic about the future of Suiren City.
Therefore, Suiren City actually has no shortage of teachers, and it was filled very quickly.
Then there is the Hospital, which was also built. However, training doctors is difficult and takes a long time, so there are not many doctors in Suirencheng Yiyuan now. The standard is equivalent to that of a town hospital around Huaxia, but even this is quite satisfying for the Suiren people who have never seen a doctor.
These are Huaxia's arrangements for the entire Huaxia in terms of education and medical care. Before Baifeng left, another arrangement he gave to Yulong was the conscription and expansion of the army, as well as the expansion of Public Security.
Huaxia's current population is skyrocketing, but the scale of the army has not expanded significantly. The wars of the past two years have caused a large gap in the army's Establishment System; if it is not replenished, there will be problems.
Therefore, Lema City is already independently recruiting and training soldiers, and Huaxia City is also expanding recruitment and then training soldiers.
The current goal is that, in addition to garrisoning Huaxia City and following on various missions, every town must have at least one company of garrison troops. They are responsible for daily vigilance, patrols, and the expulsion and hunting of wild beasts invading the surroundings; in some cases, relying solely on hunters is not enough.
With troops stationed in towns, the village level trains Militia, which are reserves. Based on the number of young adults, Militia are selected proportionally. Every year during the slack farming season, the superior town department must send people down to train the Militia, at least to ensure the Militia have some basic military literacy. They serve the same purpose as the garrison troops at the town level.
They will also be issued some basic Weaponry or phased-out standard-issue Weaponry, with the goal of making all of Huaxia impenetrable. No matter what kind of enemy comes, even a village must have a certain ability to resist.
Then there is Public Security. Although Huaxia is said to be very safe, the number of people has increased, and people are relatively reckless, so various criminal cases occur frequently, and there are many public order incidents, so strengthening the power of Public Security is imminent.
The Public Security department has not been established for long, so it lacks personnel. Generally, those responsible for office work and household registration are civil servants who passed the exam. Now the university has also set up a new Public Security major, specifically teaching content related to Public Security, as well as the detection of criminal offenses and the like, which overlaps a bit with law, but is not exactly the same.
As for those responsible for attendance and duty, most are retired or transferred soldiers. They are well-trained, have good physical fitness, high combat power, and obey management, so they have an advantage in patrols and duty.
Moreover, most of these Civil Police in the future will be served by retired soldiers. There is no fixed term, and they can work until retirement; other vacancies are recruited through public exams.
Now in Huaxia City and Lema City, a large number of police stations have been built, and jurisdictions have been delineated, allowing Residents to handle affairs and seek help more conveniently, and also allowing the scope of responsibility to be determined.
Like in towns, police stations have also been arranged to ensure the convenience of town Residents in handling certain matters, especially things like household registration; it is too troublesome to keep running to Huaxia City to queue. Precision down to the town level is also beneficial for household registration management.
There are no police stations at the village level; there are only assigned police officers who patrol at fixed times and then handle problems.
