Kapitel 1121: Chapter 1123: I Don't Like You Anymore_1

Now that this matter had been discussed and agreed upon by everyone, the villagers had contributed a little money, but each village had to send a portion of their strong labor forces to volunteer their labor.

However, while the village issue had been resolved, what about the county yamen? The county yamen didn't have a penny, and since he had just arrived in Mianyang, he couldn't possibly ask the local officials to pay out of their own pockets right away. Therefore, he had to cover a part of the costs himself and also treated various wealthy households in the county to a meal. When they had drunk their fill, he brought up the matter and asked each of the rich families to contribute what little they could, finally resolving the issue.
