"Coke?" "Funding?"
Teacher Claire and Charlotte asked at the same time. Their focus was obviously different, which made Reiner smile.
"This drink obviously makes people feel happy, so I named it Coke. As for the problem of funding..."
Reiner did not say it directly, but glanced at Teacher Claire.
"Tell me, everyone will know about it at the morning meeting next week anyway."
The young dean shrugged, leaving Xia Luo, the only one who didn't know, confused.
Reiner took over and began to explain.
"In fact, Xia Luo, this school may be abolished soon."
At first, Charlotte didn't react when she heard this sentence, but soon, she understood the meaning of the word "abolition of school" in Reiner's mouth.
"Wait a minute... What does it mean to abolish a school?"
However, Xia Luo still asked, but she wanted to know why this happened.
For the first time, I have a place where I can be free and live with peace of mind. For the first time, I have a close friend who can speak my mind freely. Two happy things come together, but why is this happening
"You can also feel that most of the teaching facilities of Crescent College have been abandoned, and there are fewer and fewer new students enrolling every year. There are only three students in this class, and the college's rating has stayed at level nine for many years. , this is a dangerous signal.”
As Reiner spoke, the information in his memory continued to emerge.
Crescent Academy has a history of nearly a thousand years. It was supposed to be a high-end aristocratic magic academy, but the reason why it was bought easily by Reiner was naturally not because he was the third son of the Iain Gray family, but because this school was indeed The school is on the verge of being abandoned.
After a hundred consecutive years of poor management, many school facilities have been abandoned, the number of students enrolled every year has continued to decrease, and the rating has dropped to the lowest level seven. If the qualification inspection fails, then Crescent College will be abolished immediately - Reiner is in this situation in the situation.
If the school is abolished, not only will all of Reiner's funds be wasted, but there will also be no place to take him in. He may even have food problems. And you know, it has only been a month since the brothers left the family. .
"In three months, Crescent College will undergo the qualification test of the High-level Magic Council. If it cannot meet the most basic teaching conditions, then the college with the lowest rating will no longer be able to maintain it, and Crescent College will become history. Existing students will be dispersed to other colleges, and with the current situation of the school, the possibility of passing the qualification test is zero."
Teacher Claire added, looking quite helpless.
"What should I do..."
Xia Luo was at a loss. She was just an ordinary mage apprentice and didn't know anything about qualification tests and academy ratings. She only knew that she didn't want the school to close down and separate herself from her friends.
Teacher Claire shook her head. She had grown up in the academy. For Claire, an orphan, this school was her home. She wanted this school to collapse more than anyone else, but that was the fact, and she had nothing to do.
"Actually, I have been looking for ways to save the school during this time, and it was not until today that I discovered this opportunity."
Reiner blundered, but in fact he had just thought of this plan, and it was part of the series of things that came out of his mouth.
"That's the drink in front of you."
Xia Luo was a little confused. This drink called Coke was indeed delicious, but how could it become an opportunity to save Crescent College
Reiner nodded, and then explained the two problems currently facing Crescent College.
First point, Crescent College needs money.
As a famous school with a long history, many facilities of Crescent College actually have great uses, but they have no money to maintain them, so they are abandoned one after another. If you want to improve the comprehensive strength of the college and make money to repair the campus, purchasing materials is the most important thing. Quick way.
As for how to make money, Reiner believed that Coke, a drink that had performed miracles on earth, would not disappoint him. He only needed to find a factory to process it and use some means to sell it.
The second point is about the rules regarding school ratings.
In this world, the magic academy uses a points system for rating. Points can be obtained through various academic competitions and research results. The simplest way is for teachers or students in the school to publish a paper.
At the same time, if this paper is cited by others, corresponding points will be obtained. Therefore, publishing an original paper can bring a large number of points, and academic points are also a hard indicator of qualification testing and can also be counted. This is the biggest difficulty facing Crescent College.
After all, very few people from Crescent College publish papers in regular journals every year, and their academic points this year are even zero.
Therefore, Reiner's idea is to use the creativity in his head from the earth to produce several shocking academic papers. While earning points and improving academic achievements, he can apply some alchemy products and earn money to support the college. of construction.
The first paper is obviously an oxidation theory paper that overturns the fire element theory.
Reiner believes that science and technology are the primary productive forces.
After listening to Reiner's words, both ladies fell silent.
Claire had never known that Reiner had such a detailed plan, and from the current point of view, it was very feasible. She originally thought that Reiner was just a wasteful aristocrat who lived and drank, but now it seems that as the third member of the Iain Gray family, Son, this principal does have a few tricks up his sleeve.
Xia Luo suddenly felt a certain closeness to Reiner. Her father's authority in her family was very high and dominated almost all of Xia Luo's choices. Coming to Crescent College was one of the few choices she made on her own. For one, Xia Luo has a strong sense of belonging to the academy, so naturally she has a better impression of Reiner, who has put forward a complete plan to save the academy.
"I will put the plan into effect in the next few days, so I may need to go out and look for a factory that can process cola. Teacher Claire, I hope you can give me the formula for this potion."
After hearing Reiner's words, Claire did not refuse. The potion was originally her own attempt to prepare it, and it was of no great use other than treating her own illness. If it could be used to save the academy, she would not hesitate.
"As for Charlotte, I hope you can help me complete the thesis. At the same time, I will use the school's funds to sponsor you to study alchemy. Since you were the first to discover this experimental phenomenon, your name will also be on the author of the paper. , if my guess is correct, you may become the youngest author of an academic paper in history."
Reiner's words made Charlotte's eyes light up, and she suddenly felt unbelievable.
