Chapter 219 Military Academy Students and College Students

Although he was very satisfied with the development of agriculture in Spain, Carlo decided to find time to visit Andalusia and Extremadura in the second half of the year.

This is not because Carlo does not believe the data reported by Minister Jovillar, but as the king of Spain, Carlo still has to personally see the development of agriculture and animal husbandry in Spain, personally understand the problems faced by local farmers and herders, and then solve them.

If Carlo only looks at the data reported by various departments in the Royal Palace of Madrid, he will not be able to understand the local development in detail.

Doing so will only make Carlo more and more unfamiliar with the development of Spain, and eventually lose control of the country.

If you want to formulate a development plan for Spain, the first thing to do is to personally see how the various departments and regions in Spain are developing, and then you can formulate a plan based on the information you have.

If you blindly formulate a plan without a detailed understanding of the basic situation in Spain, either the subsequent development will not be too smooth, or you will go the wrong way, which will make the original small problem more serious.

After encouraging Minister Jovillar, Carlo ended the conversation with Minister Jovillar and dealt with the government affairs during his trip to Italy.

In fact, there was no government affairs. Archduke Serrano and Count Conovas could handle most of the government affairs. Carlo was more concerned about the decrees issued by the Spanish government during this period and the latest situation of various departments.

Because of the arms trade treaties signed with Russia and the Ottoman Empire, the military factories in Spain were still working overtime at this time.

Military factories are also factories. The various raw materials needed by military factories, such as gunpowder, steel and other parts, are provided by various factories.

Military factories are working overtime, and the factories that provide materials are also working overtime. Although it seems that only military factories have obtained orders, it actually affects dozens of factories behind them and the tens of thousands of workers in these factories.

This is actually why the United States was able to make a fortune in silence during the First and Second World Wars. It seems that the United States only made money from various trades, but in fact, the United States' industry and economy continued to develop and expand with these trades.

Because of the war, the factories of European countries were destroyed, the economy was in a mess, and they became more dependent on the United States, a large factory outside.

The final result was that the United States sucked blood from European countries, and Europe was eventually abandoned because of the two world wars, and the potential of European countries was cut again and again.

After reading the latest reports from various departments, Carlo was quite satisfied with the development of Spain. According to the current development trend, the second five-year plan will be successfully completed, which also means that Spain's industrial scale and economic scale will usher in a new high.

After the second five-year plan is completely completed, Spain's comprehensive strength will take a big step forward, and it will not be difficult to surpass Italy, the bottom power.

In other words, Spain has become a great power again, and is qualified to stand at the negotiating table with other great powers, rather than becoming a pawn in the game of great powers.

After staying in the palace for a few days, Carlo, who had nothing to do, decided to inspect the construction of the capital Madrid to see if there were any problems in the construction of Madrid.

Regardless of whether you believe in your subordinates, appropriate inspections are necessary. In addition to understanding the actual situation in each region, another point is to put enough pressure on officials in each region to make them understand that Carlo is not so easy to fool.

Walking out of the palace with a small number of guards, crossing the Byron Street in front of the palace, you will arrive at the most prosperous city center in Madrid.

With his back to the palace, Carlo's left is the newly built House of Lords Building in Spain, and the right is the Cathedral of San Andres. Behind the cathedral is the House of Representatives Building of Spain, which is also the largest parliament building in Spain.

The city center of Madrid is still quite prosperous and clean. After all, this is the face of Spain. Carlo has also specifically requested to keep the streets clean and sanitary.

Although Europe in this era is the most developed and advanced region, only in terms of hygiene, the performance of Europeans is very poor.

Although it is not as exaggerated as the Middle Ages, there are still a lot of garbage and excrement in the corners of the streets.

Because of the lack of large public toilets, many citizens will go to the toilet in the corners of the street, making those dark and damp corners even more smelly.

This is not only not exaggerated, but also a common phenomenon in cities in European countries. Regarding this point, London, the most developed city at present, has a joke about "Luxury cars and fine wines make London smell bad".

Of course, London's stink is not only due to the garbage and excrement on the streets, but also the stinky pollutants in the smog.

Compared with London, Spain's environment is not that bad. Carlo also emphasized the sanitation of the streets. At least in the streets of the center of Madrid, there is no phenomenon of urinating and littering.

Madrid is the capital of Spain, and the streets in the city center are the face of Spain. The Spanish government has placed a large number of garbage cans here, which are cleaned on time every day to ensure that there is no odor.

In the busiest streets in Madrid, the government has built a large number of public toilets to ensure that citizens have a place to go to the toilet, instead of quietly solving it in the corners of the street.

In order to ensure that citizens do not pollute the streets, the Madrid City Government has also introduced relevant penalties. Once caught, they will be fined, and serious cases may even face imprisonment.

In order to make the citizens of Madrid willing to go to public toilets, Carlo even asked for a ban on charging for public toilets in Madrid. Both citizens of Madrid and foreign tourists can go to the toilet in Madrid's public toilets for free.

Although this has increased the expenses of the Madrid City Government, it has indeed made citizens more willing to go to public toilets.

If public toilets are charged, citizens will definitely not want to go to public toilets. They will naturally violate the decree issued by the Madrid City Government and quietly solve it in the corners of the street.

Carlo is not going to the most prosperous Gran Via in Madrid, but the newly developed area in the north of Madrid.

Compared with the city center of Madrid, this is the new urban area that Madrid has just expanded, and it is more likely to face many problems.

Going north from San Bernardo Street, passing the San Cristobal Church, you will come to the new urban area of ​​Madrid.

Compared with the old urban area further south, this place looks obviously a little deserted. This is where the Madrid City Government focuses on resettling immigrants, and it is also a key development area in Spain.

There is a road on the west side of the church that leads directly to the northwest of Madrid. This newly developed land not only has important research institutions such as the Royal Academy of Sciences of Spain, but also has important universities such as the Royal Academy of Sciences of Spain, the Madrid Medical School, and the Royal Military Academy of Madrid.

Carlo's future plan is to build a large-scale university town in this area and develop the surrounding land.

One advantage here is that it is close to the Madrid train station and is a distance away from the busiest streets in the city center, so the transportation is relatively convenient.

Of course, it is not too far from the city center, which is why the Madrid Municipal Government regards it as a new urban area.

Carlo's destination is the university town in the northwest of Madrid. After all, it is approaching July, and it is about to be the graduation time for college students this year.

Carlo participates in the graduation ceremony of the Royal Military Academy graduates every year. After all, Carlo is the honorary president of the military academy. These graduates will be the mainstay of the Spanish army in the future, and it is necessary to pay attention to them.

As long as Carlo can gain the favor of these military academy graduates, the title of honorary president of Carlo Military Academy can play a huge role and even influence the army.

But if he cannot win the favor of these military academy graduates, what can Carlo do even if he is just an honorary principal?

Therefore, Carlo will participate in the graduation ceremony of every Royal Military Academy graduate. He will not only give a speech to encourage these newly graduated military academy graduates, but also personally confer titles to some of the graduates with better performance.

This only took Carlo one day, but the actual effect was very obvious. The Royal Military Academy has trained a large number of graduates so far, and some military academy graduates have been promoted to military ranks.

And these graduates still respect and love Carlo very much, and even many of them have a very fanatical worship of Carlo.

The main reason for this is that the ideological education courses opened by Carlo in the military academy have achieved good results, but it is also related to what Carlo does in his daily life.

A king who pays attention to the income of the grassroots people and sympathizes with the suffering of the grassroots people, how can the people not love him?

No matter which country it is, the requirements of the grassroots people are actually very simple, that is, to be well fed, well clothed, and have a good life.

In Spain at present, being well fed and well clothed can basically be achieved. Although there are still similar food safety issues, it is much better than the previous Spain.

Under such circumstances, the people only love the current Spanish government and King Carlo, which is why these military academy graduates are quite loyal to Carlo.

Since its establishment, the Royal Military Academy of Madrid has trained more than 400 outstanding military academy graduates for Spain every year.

This year is the seventh year, but this year's military academy graduates are still as high as more than 400.

If the graduates who are about to graduate this year are counted, the Royal Military Academy has trained more than 3,000 potential officers for Spain.

At present, most military academy graduates can get the position of platoon leader after entering the army, and only a small number of military academy graduates can only temporarily serve as deputy platoon leaders due to insufficient positions.

However, this is also good news. When Spain needs to expand its army in the future, these deputy officers can quickly become full-time officers, and they don't need too much adaptation time to enter the work.

Under the premise that the Royal Military Academy continuously trains officers, the Spanish army has replaced most of the grassroots officers such as company commanders and platoon leaders.

At present, most of the officers in Spain have received military school education. Although it cannot be guaranteed that all these platoon leaders and company commanders are excellent military talents, at least their military literacy can be guaranteed.

In the past, a large number of low-level officers in the Spanish army had not received qualified military education at all, which also affected the combat effectiveness of the Spanish army.

There are many factors that affect the combat effectiveness of the army, but one of the important factors that can actually determine the combat effectiveness of the army is the military literacy of these low-level officers.

Check out the correct version in the 16-9 book forum!

No matter how good the general leading the army is, if the military literacy of the lower-level officers is not up to standard, the general's orders will be difficult to be fully implemented.

If these lower-level officers have good military literacy, even if the commander as a leader does not have much ability, at least the army can be guaranteed to be relatively stable.

Although the Spanish army has a limited number of officers, the Spanish defense department also has important departments such as the General Staff and the Logistics Department, so it is not a problem to find a position for these military academy graduates.

As in previous years, after Carlo attended the graduation ceremony of these military academy students, he selected a small number of extremely outstanding graduates to join the Guards.

Although the Guards only have a division of 15,000 people, the current reserve of officers in the Guards is extremely rich.

It is no exaggeration to say that as long as Carlo is willing, the Spanish Guards can expand 2 to 3 divisions at any time, and there is no need to worry about the reserve of lower-level officers.

That is, Spain does not have to worry about the problem of war now, and Spain has become stable, which also makes Carlo give up expanding the Guards.

Although the Guards are only a division in size, as long as the Guards are stationed in Madrid, they can ensure the safety of the capital Madrid.

Judging from the firepower of the Guards, Madrid is in no danger unless it faces a large-scale siege by the enemy's army or a large-scale rebellion by the domestic army.

Even the Carlist rebellion a few years ago could not threaten the safety of Madrid. This is the sense of security that firepower brings to Carlo, which cannot be replaced by anything else.

After attending the graduation ceremony of the Royal Military Academy, Carlo is preparing to attend the ceremony of the graduates of the Royal Academy of Sciences.

If the Royal Military Academy is the military academy that Carlo attaches the most importance to, then the Royal Academy of Sciences is the science university that Carlo attaches the most importance to.

The Royal Academy of Sciences is a university built by Carlo according to the needs of the Royal Academy of Sciences. The purpose is to provide additional job opportunities for scientists and R\u0026D personnel of the Royal Academy of Sciences, and to cultivate mid-level talents in scientific research for Spain.

Of course, if Spain can produce top talents in scientific research through training, Carlo is also willing to see it.

Historically, Spain did not have many top talents in materialization, and a big reason for this was the neglect of scientific research in Spain from the 18th to the 19th century.

Carlo has attached importance to scientific research for many years and believes that this can bring some changes to Spain. After all, Spain is also a medium-sized country with a population of more than 10 million. Carlo does not believe that Spain will not produce any top talents in materialization.

Compared with the Royal Military Academy, which has more than 400 graduates each year, the Royal Academy of Sciences has very few graduates each year, with an average of only 200 graduates each year.

But don't underestimate these 200 graduates. These graduates are carefully cultivated by scientists and R\u0026D personnel of the Royal Academy of Sciences, and their abilities are naturally beyond doubt.

Because they are cultivated by scientists of the Royal Academy of Sciences, these graduates are directly divided by the Royal Academy of Sciences after graduation, and enter the research projects of those scientists and researchers as assistants, and learn more knowledge by the way.

This year's graduates are the fourth graduates of the Royal Academy of Sciences. For the entire four classes, the Royal Academy of Sciences has cultivated no more than 1,000 talents.

But the good news is that the success rate of these graduates is very high. At present, many graduates have been valued by the members of the Royal Academy of Sciences, who even spare no effort to impart knowledge to them and personally lead them to do some experiments and research.

Teaching students of the Royal Academy of Sciences is a good thing for these members of the Academy of Sciences.

They can get part-time fees for being professors and other positions in the school, and the salaries of these positions are not low.

The students taught can also serve as assistants for their own scientific research projects. The students trained by themselves also know their abilities and will be more convenient to use.

It is precisely because of this that none of the scientists recruited by Carlo from abroad reject part-time teaching at the Royal Academy of Sciences or other universities. When they get the part-time income, they are all smiling.

The income of the members of the Royal Academy of Sciences is not low, and they can get additional rewards for completing research and development projects. Their part-time jobs are also a large income, which makes their income higher than before abroad. This is also the way Spain attracts foreign talents to join the Royal Academy of Sciences.

When the economic crisis just broke out, there were less than 500 scientific research talents in the Royal Academy of Sciences of Spain, and less than 200 scientists who received the title and treatment of second-level academicians.

To date, the number of scientific research talents in the Royal Academy of Sciences of Spain has exceeded 1,000, with more than 700 academicians, including 322 first-level academicians, 362 second-level academicians, and 46 third-level academicians.

If the graduates of the Royal Academy of Sciences are included, the number of R\u0026D personnel in the Royal Academy of Sciences is close to 2,000. It is precisely because of the continuous increase in R\u0026D personnel that the various research of the Royal Academy of Sciences has been carried out smoothly and has made various progress.

With the increase in per capita income in Spain, Carlo has also increased the basic salary of third-level academicians.

The basic annual salary of first-level academicians has been raised to 2,800 pesetas, and the basic salary of second-level academicians is as high as 5,200 pesetas. The third-level academician is the highest level and title among researchers of the Royal Academy of Sciences of Spain, and the basic salary has reached an exaggerated 8,500 pesetas.

Just to pay the basic annual salary to all R\u0026D personnel of the Royal Academy of Sciences, Carlo pays more than 5 million pesetas every year.

Not to mention the various R\u0026D funds invested by the Royal Academy of Sciences. At present, the Royal Academy of Sciences has become one of the industries with the largest investment in all of Carlo’s industries, and the annual expenditure has reached 35 million pesetas.

Although a large amount of funds must be paid to the Royal Academy of Sciences every year, Carlo is still willing to spend this money.

As long as any R\u0026D project of the Royal Academy of Sciences can make progress, the benefits obtained are several times or even dozens of times the R\u0026D funds of 35 million pesetas.

If those important R\u0026D projects make progress, the profits obtained are immeasurable, and Carlo can still calculate the ratio of investment and return.
