Liansheng paused for a moment and then said, "This time, the reason we're placing such importance is also because this gentleman promised to renovate the school. He offered a million right off the bat, and for an elementary school, dozens of villages will benefit."
Wang Futang listened silently without interrupting.
Hearing that dozens of villages would benefit, Wang Futang pinched a pinch of tobacco and stuffed it into his pipe, pressing down on it with his fingers and nodding heavily, "Alright, if he's willing to come to the countryside for the New Year, let him come. We guarantee to treat him with the utmost respect. For such a charitable act, he deserves to be treated as an honored guest."
Liansheng looked at his uncle, then his silent older cousin, and had no choice but to accept this outcome.
Putting this matter aside, Uncle was more concerned about the Jiang Province affairs.
