"Opening an ancestral hall is a big deal!" one of the people said, "No matter what time it is, setting up an ancestral hall is a big deal, and it is one of the most difficult things to handle. If other people mentioned it to us, we might not have much confidence.
, but if you Xiaoyang mentioned it to us, then we would be confident, but we don’t know what you think, Xiaoyang?”
Others nodded.
Although Chen Yang is young now, he is already the top figure here.
It can be said that Chen Yang's words are now more convincing than anyone else's words in the village. Others have no way to compare with him, so when he said this, others began to look forward to what Chen Yang's conditions would be.
"That's what I think. Since several members of our surnames are running the ancestral hall together, let's calculate it based on the number of men in our village. If our ancestral hall budget is two million, then we divide it by two million.
Our men, look how much a man earns."
This can be regarded as an old method. Everyone has always calculated this way, so Chen Yang's words were approved by everyone.
Others nodded one after another, agreeing with Chen Yang's words.
"This is the best..." one of the old men said, "Xiaoyang, we all know that you are rich, and you are not short of this little money, but since the ancestral hall belongs to the whole village, we really have to pay for it ourselves.
, otherwise we can’t justify it. In this case, it will be much easier to do. Let me first express my opinion that I have no objection to the construction of the ancestral hall. I support it.”
Others also raised their hands, and they seemed to have no objections.
Seeing this, Chen Yang breathed a sigh of relief and said: "It's best if everyone doesn't have any opinions, so that we can all feel relieved. Otherwise, let's leave it like this for now. We don't need to say anything more here. What about you?
Go back quickly and tell everyone about the matter. If everyone agrees, then it will be easier for us to handle the next thing, and we can think about how to prepare."
"good!"
If Chen Yang comes forward, these things will indeed be easier to handle.
As everyone agreed, everyone soon left.
Chen Xinhua watched the whole process and finally said: "It's better for you to come forward and say it. You see, no one objects or even hesitates. They only agree. Let me tell you, if other people are here, there will be no
You may have everyone's consent, but you are different. You have already got everyone's consent, and no one will oppose you. You are so happy... It is indeed rare, and this is good."
Chen Yang laughed and said, "Uncle Xinhua, it's also because everyone trusts us, so everyone is so willing to cooperate with us."
In fact, the construction of ancestral halls has always been a major event for the clan, but every time a ancestral hall is built, it will cause trouble.
The reason is very simple, because there are always some people with bad intentions who will not calculate the accounts clearly.
There are actually very few people who can really use every penny spent there, so every time they do this kind of thing, it is often a waste of time. Later, even if someone talks about building an ancestral hall,
, no one has much interest anymore.
The main reason is that people think you people are just here for money.
Since it's for money, why should I give you money?
So later on, no one believed each other, and no one was willing to do such a thing anymore.
"Yes, everyone believed you when Chen Yang came forward, but if it were anyone else, they wouldn't believe you. Look at Wang Limin, who was originally the number one figure in our village. You want him to go
Try it and see if he can do it?"
Chen Yang was very happy and shook his head and said: "Of course he can't do it. We know better than anyone who he is. For a person like him, it would be strange if he didn't swallow our money. We are not fools. No."
This will be done to him."
"Yes, so everyone feels like a mirror!" Chen Xinhua said with a smile, "You have to come out for it to work... Okay, I won't disturb your time anymore, you can just go and do your work now, anyway.
Waiting for news from them."
"good!"
…
After the principals of each surname came out from here, they immediately returned to their village, summoned people of their own surname, and began to discuss the matter of building an ancestral hall together.
As soon as they heard that Chen Yang was going to build a communal ancestral hall, everyone started a heated discussion.
"Do we really want to build a temple with all our surnames?" When everyone heard about the construction of a shared ancestral hall, everyone's first reaction was that they didn't understand. "Xiaoyang really said that?"
"Yes, this is what Xiaoyang told me. He made it very clear. Otherwise, there would be no need to invite so many of us over, right? That's what he thought, so he asked us to come over and discuss it together."
"Xiaoyang...don't you want to support them with the surname Chen?"
"Xiaoyang is different from others. He sees not only the surname Chen, but our entire village. After following him for so long, don't you still know who he is? Now let me ask you, are you interested?
Do it with Xiaoyang?"
"That's for sure!" They immediately laughed and said, "Our village is not short of this money now, and what Xiaoyang proposed will be built by him himself, so what else can we do?
I believe it.”
"that is!"
"But what will this ancestral hall be used for in the future?"
"The main thing is to allow the ancestral tablets of our seven surnames to be enshrined, but in addition to this, all official and white events in our village can be done there in the future. For example, the matter of the third grandfather this time will still be done according to the old rules, so
There is no suitable place to do it. After we build the ancestral hall and make it suitable for hosting banquets, then if we do anything in the future, even get married, if we are willing to follow our rules, we can do it there.
It can be done, don’t you think so?”
"Yes, yes, this is indeed true!"
"Then how do you pay? Do you do it like Hong Ding's payment?"
"Then there is no problem, I support it with both hands!"
As they went to convey this matter, those people started to take action one after another.
There was almost no objection from anyone.
Of course, after Chen Yang solved this matter, he immediately threw himself into the third grandpa's birthday banquet.
Third Grandpa’s birthday banquet was filled with many tables, and the whole village was invited.
Eighty-one years old is considered a long life in this era, but compared to many people nowadays, after all, there are many people around ninety, so if you really want to talk about it, it is not the kind of person who has a particularly long life.
But Third Grandpa has always had good prestige in the village, so now that it has become like this, many people will come over to celebrate his birthday.
And the third grandfather’s house also became busy.
For banquets like this, there is usually one person in charge.
The person in charge oversees the overall situation and distributes tasks.
Chen Yang's task has not yet arrived, but Lu Xuewei and Xiu Yi, as the main and deputy chefs, are already very busy at this time.
