Although Elder Ma suggested 10%, Old Master Hu felt that if the price was too low, the villagers would probably have objections.
In the end, Village Chief Hu and the others discussed together and asked the villagers to sell the food to the Wang Family. However, they would only agree to take a 30% deposit first. Later on, when Wang Chuanman sells the crops, they will receive the remaining 70%.
If anything happened in the middle, they would not pursue the responsibility of the Wang Family. They only needed to make up for a further 10%.
The villagers never thought that the Wang Family would lie to them. After interacting with the Wang Family for 17 years, everyone knew the morals of the various families.
Naturally, there was no such thing as complying on the surface but stabbing each other's backs on the turn.
