Chapter 1124: Chapter 359: The Murderer, The Opportunity_4

Apart from a few households that were somewhat reluctant, the proposal unexpectedly received the agreement of the majority.

The villagers had suffered through many years of hardship, and even if they had some extra money, they did not dare to spend it frivolously. However, fortune and misfortune come unexpectedly, and no one can guarantee that good times will last forever. By contributing a little silver now, if their family cannot afford schooling for their children in the future, at least the school could ensure that their children could continue their studies. This was the real reason why most villagers were willing to give silver to the school.

This was entirely voluntary; as for those families who were capable but unwilling to contribute silver, no one would compel them. Of course, if people from other villages were willing to contribute silver, no one would refuse them either.
