Chapter 284 Why Do some People Always Resist Public Health? (Ten Thousand Rewards Plus 2 Updates)
Aurora Wharton said that asking Gretel to go to the public health institution to gather some people was not just a casual talk. In fact, before he even went to pick it up, someone was already begging him to pick it up...
The construction of the mage tower is completed. The interior is completed. The tower spirit enlightenment is completed. All this took up Grete for two days. Early in the morning on the third day, Grete had just woken up in a daze when a carriage with the emblem of the Magic Council blocked the door of the villa, waiting eagerly to pick him up.
Gretel smiled as soon as she got up. Aurora was actually in the car too, popping up with a black face, yawning and waving to him. How impatient I am, for fear of delaying a little time!
In fact, it wasn't that they didn't want to pick him up, but that Gretel had been busy with the Mage Tower in the past two days. The guys around me were either level 14 or 5, or level 17 or 18. The guys who came to pick me up couldn't get along...
The carriage rolled along the foot of the mountain and took Gretel to the office of the Magic Council. The six-story white tower stands tall, majestic and upright, just as it was when he first saw it, but Gretel has no intention of admiring it anymore. He also has a mage tower himself! Three floors underground and nine floors above ground!
On the right side of the entrance hall on the first floor of the White Tower, the large black iron door is tightly closed, which is the area where the Emergency Management Department is stationed. The visitor led Grete straight through the door and walked in, making many twists and turns until he reached the deepest part and entered an empty conference room.
The room is spacious and can accommodate at least twenty or thirty people for a meeting. There is a large rectangular table in the middle. The sand table on the table wavers, imaginary and real. The houses, streets, rivers, and trees are concrete and micro, and they are exactly the miniature reproduction of the city of Nevis.
Gretel couldn't help but lie down and look. Well, Bridge Magic Academy is here, the White Tower is not far away, the villa area... the small train station... even his newly built magic tower is marked!
sharp!
How often is this sandbox updated?
"This is the magic sandbox of Nevis City." A voice suddenly sounded from the side:
"Twelve invisible servants carry the mystic eyes around the city every day. The scenes seen by the mystical eyes are collected and updated once a day."
Grete turned back suddenly. Standing next to the sand table was a strange, middle-aged magician. He was tall and had a resolute face. His weather-beaten face had piercing black eyes that seemed to be able to see into people's hearts at a glance. He nodded to Gretel and stretched out his right hand:
"Master Grete Nordmark? Nice to meet you. I am the Minister of Emergency Management, Johnny Colin. Nice to meet you. In the future work of the Department of Public Health, the Department of Emergency Management will allocate a law enforcement team to work with you. joint law enforcement."
Grete reached out and shook hands with him. While shaking hands, I took a quick glance and saw three silver stars and three white rings on the magician's badge on the man's chest - a third-level arcanist and an eighth-level magician. The research level is obviously behind the magic level. Judging from his position, he is probably very good at fighting.
It’s a good thing to be able to fight! Public health agencies also need to rely on their strength to enforce the law, but with his connections, he doesn’t know where to look!
Fortunately, the review committee sent it!
Gretel showed a sincere smile and shook his hand hard. The middle-aged magician's palms are as hard as iron. He looks more like a warrior than a magician. After the two sides exchanged greetings, Minister Colin pointed to the sand table and said:
"It has the topography and water flow direction of Nevis City. According to the location of the houses, it is very convenient to determine the location of the water supply facilities. - In the past two days, surveyors from the Emergency Management Department have designed the water pipes. Take a look. Is there anything that needs to be changed?”
He pressed on the sand table, made a few gestures, and whispered a short spell. Soon, blue lines lit up one after another on the sand table, some thick and some thin, running down from the nearby mountains. They were obviously the water supply pipelines Grete had mentioned.
Grete leaned forward to take a closer look.
In middle- and high-end residential areas and in low- and middle-end residential areas, there are many water supply pipelines crisscrossing into each house and building. However, in low-end residential areas, special pools are opened on the streets.
There are small pieces of blue squares, and there are actually splashes of water. It seems to be an open design, forming a pool for people to come and fetch water on their own.
"This won't work." Gretel immediately shook his head:
"It's too easy to contaminate..."
"...This work is not my responsibility." Master Colin waved his hand:
"The construction of water supply facilities is someone else's business. I will only show you the sand table. Please note the location. Someone will come over later and we will have a meeting in another room -"
Gretel stopped talking and tried to read and remember. Fortunately, after becoming a magician, my mental strength and memory have improved. It is not difficult to remember such a large map.
"Ah, here we come." As time passed by, Master Colin suddenly whispered. Soon, a series of bells rang by the door of the conference room. Master Colin immediately took Gretel out, went straight to the fifth floor, and entered a luxuriously furnished conference room.
The long table in this conference room is oval-shaped, covered with dark black velvet, almost hanging to the ground. Gretel was guided by Master Colin and took a seat on the side of the long oval table, near the end. After waiting for a while, the attendees began to arrive one after another.
Gretel looked around and couldn't help but want to laugh:
The people who came to the meeting today are basically low-profile versions of the hearings from the previous two days~~~
A bishop came from the Temple of the God of War, and a priest came from the Temple of the Goddess of Spring. Judging from the decorations on their robes, they should both be of the eleventh or second level. Behind them were followers, sitting on chairs near the wall behind the long table, with notebooks spread out on their knees and looking up.
It looked like the notebook was densely packed, with a lot written and crossed out. I might have been in meetings for the past two days, and God knows how many fights I had.
Elder Wood actually arrived in person. As for the Magic Council——
"Master Edgar! Why did you come here in person? Hey, Linn, when did you come back?"
Grete was really pleasantly surprised. Meeting this magician who led the way on the path of magic and gave him potassium permanganate in key battles to increase his fighting power, he was much more affectionate than meeting Archmage Edgar. Lin En gave him an ugly smile:
"I just came back two days ago. Little Gretel, I heard that you are going to do something big again? How about adding me?"
"Of course it's good if you're interested!"
Grete nodded happily. Master Lin En sat against the wall behind his mentor. Seeing Gretel stretching his neck from time to time and trying to look at him, he couldn't help but laugh:
"Don't look, Mr. Trocca isn't here!"
Gretel shrank his head. He's not looking at the black cat, he's looking for the golden skeleton...
Then one after another, four or five more nobles arrived, including the female knight Selina who had been here that day. Gretel smiled happily at her, and as soon as they exchanged greetings, the review committee member from the Department of Change entered the conference room and announced the start of the meeting.
“In the previous two days of meetings, we have initially reached an agreement to establish a Department of Public Health, with Grete Nordmark as the first director.
The council is responsible for monitoring and disinfecting water quality throughout the city.
The Federation of Nobles and the General Chamber of Commerce of Nevis City, in cooperation with the Parliament, are responsible for pipeline construction and daily water charges.
The Spring Temple, in cooperation with the Council, is responsible for the construction of reservoirs, drinking water pipelines, and drinking water supply and maintenance.
The Temple of the God of War will cooperate with the Council to crack down on random dumping of garbage and illegal sewage discharge.
The Order of the God of Nature, in cooperation with the Council, is responsible for the collection, treatment and purification of sewage.
The three major temples and the parliament will work together to build and maintain infectious disease hospitals..."
The member of the committee spoke neither too fast nor too slowly. While repeating the resolutions of the previous meeting, he looked at the heads of various temples one after another, and at the same time looked at Gretel intentionally or unintentionally, as if he was telling him specifically. After saying it once, seeing the leaders nodding one after another, he turned to Gretel:
"Master Nordmark, as the first director of the Department of Public Health, do you have anything to add?"
"...Yes." Grete digested the Commissioner's speech for a moment and smiled slightly.
It seemed that the meetings and arguments in the past few days were not in vain. Before he knew it, the parliament and the major forces had reached a relative balance.
The most obvious point is that the Spring Water Temple has obtained the supply and maintenance of drinking water, and it is unknown how much blood they secretly shed...
He gathered his thoughts, bowed slightly, and nodded to the big guys sitting at the top. After all the adults nodded in approval, he slowed down and spoke one by one:
"In terms of urban governance, all of you elders are much better than me. Just in terms of professionalism, I would like to share some of my thoughts:
First of all, I have seen the planning of slums. The drinking water places are relatively dense and evenly arranged, which is good. But one thing to note is that the pool should be a closed pool with a pressure pump installed on it. In addition, a separate opening should be left in the pool to facilitate the regular placement of disinfectants. I will submit the specific drawings later.
In medium and high-end residential areas and in low- and medium-end residential areas, it is best for every building and house to have pipes connected to the home..."
"This won't work!"
Across the long table, to the right of the female knight Salina, a young noble jumped up. Gretel recognized that he looked somewhat similar to the nobleman who spoke on behalf of the Spring Temple during the hearing the day before yesterday:
"Our family is already working on piping water supply! Two blocks and 12 buildings are all responsible for our family! The council wants to remove the pipes for no reason, no!"
He glanced at Selina as he spoke. The female knight ignored him, but turned her head more and more, looking at Gretel a few more times.
"...That's it."
Grete put his fist on his chin and thought for a moment. "It's not impossible. Since your home is doing it, the council won't demolish it for nothing. But the council is doing the water supply project not to make money, but for the safety of the people in the city. You can continue to provide water, but your pipes and water quality , needs to be tested and approved by the parliament——"
"What a joke!"
