It seemed he had waited another ten minutes or so when people began arriving one after another.
There weren't many villages near Liuhe Village.
Including Liuhe Village, there were only four villages.
Once everyone had arrived, Wu Kexin led them into the meeting room.
The discussion about opening a road then began.

The headman of Ma Village, just as before, suggested that it would be better to follow the township's arrangements.
The other village chiefs each expressed their views as well.
After an intense discussion, no one was able to persuade the others.
Seeing that the four village chiefs couldn't convince each other, Chen Yang stood up.
"Chiefs, it might be a bit inappropriate for me to speak in this setting, but I feel you could listen to a word from me."
Chen Yang said respectfully as he rose to his feet.
