    After watching TV, Qin Shiou lay on the sofa and started browsing the web on his mobile phone. Only after browsing did he realize that there was more news about the Flower Fox on the Internet. There were more than tens of thousands of people claiming that their friends had seen the ship. Qin Shiou was also drunk.  , Is it really okay for everyone to tell lies with their eyes open like this?

    This ship belongs to Greenland. It once carried two newlyweds who wanted to go to New York for their honeymoon. Now the descendants of one of the newlyweds have appeared and claimed to form an expedition team to explore the situation of the Flower Fox.

    From these people, Huahuhao derived more legends. The descendants of the newlywed couple were the woman's continuous blood relatives. He swore that his maternal grandmother's family was descended from wizards and believed that his maternal grandmother was not dead.  in the North Atlantic.

    Qin Shiou scratched his head. Originally, he planned to use the Flower Fox to create some scary topics, but now it seems that these people are going to make it a fantasy blockbuster.

    With the Flower Fox reappearing in people's sight this time, the topic of ghost ships has triggered a frenzy of public opinion. Even in winter, there are still many people sailing to the Newfoundland waters of the North Atlantic.

    Hani, the acting mayor of Farewell Island, is also a talented person. He plans to take the opportunity to decorate a ship and create a ghost ship atmosphere to start a ghost ship tourism business.

    During the last charity event in the four towns, Hamre suggested that Qin Shiou run for mayor of the town. However, since he came back because he was very busy and the election was still far away, Qin Shiou never made preparations.

    Like the United States, government leaders in Canada from the municipal level down are elected by voters within the jurisdiction, probably in the summer after the mayoral election.

    ¡°In this way, Qin Shiou injured his ligament and could not move around. He settled down to understand Canada¡¯s grassroots management system and the situation of small-scale elections.

    According to the Canadian Constitution, town-level elections do not need to be reported to the central government in Ottawa, but only need to be responsible to the municipal and provincial governments.

    There are four to six candidates in each election. As long as they are not deprived of political rights, they can run. If they are immigrants, they must have lived in Canada for at least one year and have contributed to the development of regional economy, politics and public undertakings.  .

    During the final vote, the candidate must obtain the most votes among all candidates and obtain more than two-fifths of the votes in order to become the final mayor.

    It seems that Qin Shiou is qualified, and Hamre is right. As long as he runs for election, there is basically no chance of running away, and the position of mayor will be his.

    Qin Shiou asked Mayor Auerbach what he wanted to do. The old lawyer shrugged and said, "Mayor? That's a civil servant. You don't have to do anything. Just brag."

    This is the consistent attitude of Canadians towards civil servants. It is similar to that of Americans. When Nixon announced his participation in the presidential election, some people questioned how he, a small businessman, could be qualified for the position of president. At that time, Nixon easily said that anyone can become a successful businessman and do anything.  A successful president would be even better.

    Qin Shiou said helplessly: "Don't be like this, Dad, be serious. I really want to understand the rights and obligations of the mayor."

    Auerbach reacted and asked: "Are you interested in this? Hamre has approached you and hopes that you will become the mayor?"

    Qin Shiou shrugged and said, "Yes, you guessed it right, what do you think?"

    Auerbach shrugged, thought about the wording and said: "Actually, the job of the mayor is not complicated. Farewell Town is not a big town. The economy is on the right track and the public security is good. You don't need to make any major decisions. However,  , I¡¯m not sure you¡¯re appropriate for this.¡±

    He sat opposite Qin Shiou and began to slowly describe the operation of a Canadian town and the nature of the mayor's work.

    In Canada, local governments operate public finances, use public power, spend taxpayers' money, and take care of public interests. Therefore, the organization and personnel arrangements of local governments are relatively simple.  Whoever the people think can lead them to better development will be the mayor.

    Qin Shiou will definitely succeed if he runs for election, not because he has a good relationship with Hamre, but because he is highly recognized by the residents of Farewell Town.

    As the most basic member of the local government, the town government also manages public property, has more contact with the townspeople, and needs to be recognized by the townspeople.

    "It's not easy to be a mayor. Qin, what do you think of what you're doing now? It must be pretty good, right? Every time you go to town, everyone greets you kindly and likes to play with you, right?"  Auerbach asked.

    Qin Shiou shrugged and said, "Yes, I think I'm quite popular."

    ¡°Standards are different, everyone agreesYou, because you are just an ordinary immigrant, you took over a bankrupt fishery and then invested heavily to provide twenty jobs in the town.  As a new immigrant, you also helped bring tourism resources to everyone. We are very grateful to you, but there is a prerequisite for all this!  "

    "The premise is that you are just an ordinary immigrant, a good-tempered and generous young man."

    "If you were the mayor, that would not be the case. Do you know that Hamley did a public opinion poll when he finally left the town, what was his satisfaction level?"

    "48%, not even half! And if the tourism industry had not been developed a year ago, it would be amazing if his satisfaction rate could reach 20%!" Auerbach said seriously.

    Qin Shiou couldn't believe it, he didn't understand this.

    "The mayor is a very complicated position. From the outside, it looks like he has unified all the powers, just like a local emperor. In fact, he is just a nanny, but instead of taking care of one or two children, he takes care of the entire town!"

    "I told you, Farewell Town is a small town. It has a housing authority, a redevelopment committee, an education committee, and a finance committee. But in order to save money, these positions are available, but no one is doing them. So what's the point?  Who will do the work?"

    Facing Auerbach's gaze, Qin Shiou broke out in cold sweat: "Don't tell me, dad, the mayor does all this work!"

    "Now it seems that the mayor does at least half of the job. In the past, for example, Hamley was the director of the housing, education and redevelopment committee, but now it is Haney." Auerbach told him a fact cruelly.  .

    "If you think these are all committees, you're kidding yourself. There's Human Resources, Housing Partnerships, Government Business Relations, Voter Registration, Land Plan Approvals Council, Design Review Council, Children's Services Advisory Committee.  " Auerbach spit out the names of these institutions in one breath, and Qin Shiou's eyes went straight.

    "These are departments directly under your jurisdiction. You must be responsible for managing the personnel in these departments, making overall plans, and being directly responsible for them!" Auerbach said.

    "This is not all, this is just the earliest and simplest thing" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
