章節 122: After the Proposal

As Poul and Jonathan left the New York Board of Transportation Building, the day's fading light painted the city in warm hues. The sun was setting, signaling the approach of twilight.

Walking down the grand staircase together, the two exchanged confident glances and smirked. Jonathan, eager to know what Poul thought, asked, "What do you think our odds are that the councilors will choose our proposal?"

Poul replied. "Our idea is definitely innovative, and they seemed interested. I think we're the only ones who presented a complete plan, from start to finish."

Jonathan nodded, his excitement tempered by reality. "That's true, but there are many factors they'll consider before making a decision. The most important is the cost. Fifty million dollars is a lot of money. But if they really want to improve New York's transportation system, then... they'll see the value in our proposal."
