Chapter 934 Gu Family Benevolence
However, He Shanchuan's request is not excessive.
The only difficult thing to do, Chen Liang, has also been done, and then he can start building the road.
The next day, Chen Liang beat gongs and drums 'bang bang bang' and gathered all the people in the village to the drying yard.
He stood on the steps, facing the curious and bewildered eyes of the villagers, he coughed lightly and said, "To call everyone here today, there is something to announce."
"What's the matter, so early in the morning, I'm freezing to death."
Chen Liang glared at the man and said, "Of course it's a good thing, if you don't like it, then go back and bake your fire."

The crowd also quickly asked him to speak, and they also discovered that not only the village chief Chen Liang was present on the drying field, but even the old master Liu and others were there.
This is strange, what good thing is coming to them who have never liked to go out?
Chen Liang glanced around, and then said loudly, "Our village, we are going to build a road."
"What, build a road?"
There was a buzzing noise underneath, and everyone began to whisper.
Someone couldn't help but ask, "Village chief, what's the matter with this road construction? Did the yamen repair the village for us? Who paid for it?"
"Yeah, do we have to send one person from each family to work? Is there any wages?"
"I can't go without wages, our family has a lot of work to do."
The following ideas are different. These days, when it comes to building bridges, roads and dams, the first thing that comes to mind is labor.
The former emperor was ignorant, and it was the people below who suffered.
The current magistrate is not bad, but the previous magistrate was not a good person. Many people in their village died of exhaustion.
Therefore, people are very resistant to building roads.
Chen Liang saw that the villagers' thoughts were all crooked, so he quickly said, "Be quiet first, be quiet, this road construction is not an order from the yamen, it is the benevolence of the Gu family, who paid for our village to build an avenue."
The drying field was really quiet, and everyone looked at Gu Yundong who was standing not far from the village chief in disbelief.
Gu's family... pay?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEveryone's eyes lit up immediately, Gu family paid for it, it was definitely not a labor service.
Oh, isn't that a good thing?
Someone asked eagerly, "Girl Gu, how can we repair this road? Can we repair it in front of our house? Let me tell you, the road in front of our house is full of potholes. When it rains, when you step on it, halfway through it. Every shoe has to sink in."
Gu Yundong glanced at the man, oh, isn't that the aunt who **** and urinated in her carriage passing by their door? You really have the face to say.
But before she could say anything, someone immediately replied, "Is there anything to be repaired in front of your house? Didn't you hear what the village chief said? To repair the avenue, as narrow as your doorway, can it be regarded as an avenue? Your house was demolished."
"Why can't it be counted? The road in our house can also allow carriages to pass through. The carriage of the girl from the Gu family often passes by our door. The road in our house is the main road of the village, and it cannot be separated from anywhere."
As she spoke, she felt a little complacent.
"Girl Gu, since you are so generous and righteous, why don't you fix the outer wall of our house when building the road."action
Chen Liang frowned, somewhat regretting what he just said.
