Mr. Qi, the head of the village committee, sighed, looking at the members of the committee before him, feeling quite powerless despite having the will.
He had already done his best, but unfortunately, things don't always turn out the way people hope, and that was just how it was.
"Hey, if you ask me, let's just do it this way, we've already got some investment, so we can develop slowly with those funds, why overthink it? If we can't match Xiaogou Village's development for now, it's only temporary. Wasn't Dahe Village in a worse state before? Don't worry about the short-term losses."
An older committee member spoke up, seeming quite open-minded.
People of his age had seen a lot and naturally had a much more stable mentality.
"But I just can't swallow this pride, and besides, Jiang Hao definitely won't let us develop comfortably. If we don't catch up now, we'll keep falling further behind. If Jiang Hao interferes further, it could be fatal for Dahe Village."
