Chapter 264

What does he want him to do?

The great archmage smiled confidently. He flipped through the plan in front of him and pointed to a page:

"Regarding the plan you submitted before, there were some disagreements after the review committee discussed it:

The Budget Committee stated that building water supply facilities, repairing sewers, constructing infectious disease hospitals, would consume too much, and the budget couldn’t afford it;

The Emergency Management Department believes that strengthening patrols and vigilance can prevent spies from releasing plagues;

The medical branch of the Enchantment School feels that as long as the source of the epidemic is blocked and not leaked, the city’s medical strength is sufficient;

The City Hall does not agree to raise taxes..."

Garrett blinked. So, in exchange for obtaining this high-level mage tower, he had to face interrogation, convince the review committee?

"Do you want me to testify? When is the hearing? Which magicians do I need to focus on persuading?"

He leaned forward slightly, questioning the other party. The mage in white robes smiled slightly, raising a finger and gesturing left and right:

"No no no, what you need to do is not just testify. You need to persuade the review committee to establish a public health agency responsible for the overall health and safety of Nevis City—then, strive to obtain the position of the head of this agency."

What?

Garrett was stunned. Head of the public health agency? Me?

I’m a clinical doctor!

I’m not in public health!

In my previous life, although they were all under the umbrella of medicine, the majors we studied were different! Students majoring in public health are not even qualified to take the medical practitioner exam!

Moreover, with the Radiant Church, Temple of the God of War, and so many big shots in the medical branch of the Enchantment School, why would they want me to be the head?

Although as a doctor, I have an obligation, but this profession doesn’t match!

"So, I just need to convince the review committee? Head of the agency..."

Garrett subconsciously declined. The mage in white robes coughed and turned over another page:

"The cost of the positive and negative energy pools is 5000 contribution points each, two trap spells are 2000 contribution points each, the permanent secondary spell ineffective barrier and evasion detection are each 10000 contribution points, the arcane garden is 1000 contribution points.

"Some of them need time to organize—however, I can provide them to you."

"A detailed map of Nevis City, with the underground drainage system, commercial area, college area, villa area, and civilian area marked separately, do you have it?"

"That’s not a problem." The archmage shrugged. It’s not a military map, so these data can be fully provided.

"The tax records of Nevis City for the past few years, precise to the details—"

"Hey, that’s enough!"

The archmage began to get a headache. With his authority, not all of this data is readily available; it must be accessed through a resolution of the review committee. If Garrett asks for one or two, it’s okay, but the more he asks for, the more troublesome it becomes.

Is this kid really not seeking revenge?

The archmage glanced suspiciously. Garrett rolled his eyes:

Without this data, how can I calculate it for you?

I still have to find an accountant!

How long will it take for me, alone, to calculate the GDP of a city?

"The municipal budget for next year should be compiled no later than mid-December. I hope you can apply for a hearing before that and persuade the members of the review committee." Before the meeting ended, the archmage reminded Garrett:

"Of course, the site for your mage tower is basically decided. If there are no problems after you go to the site tomorrow, we will start building the foundation."

"Well..."

"What?"

Garrett scratched his head. For the first time since entering,

he showed a somewhat embarrassed smile in front of the archmage:

"So, from top to bottom, this mage tower belongs to me, right? I mean, even the land belongs to me, right?"

It won’t be reclaimed by the council before 70 years, right?

"Get out! If the land isn’t yours, do you still want to build a floating tower?!"
