With the acquiescence of the patriarch, Huang Zhiqiang led some young men from the clan forward one after another!
Something was wrong in the atmosphere.
My aunt is a little uneasy and has lived in the town for a long time. She knows who Huang Zhiqiang is!
The eldest brother and sister-in-law were a little nervous and pulled Xiaoman closer.
Even Sophie subconsciously stood behind Zhao Dong.
Zhao Dong's expression remained unchanged.
Mama Zhao was as stable as Mount Tai, picked up the teacup and took a sip.
The atmosphere is slightly calmer.
Zhao Dong ignored everyone's eyes and said, "That's right. Now I, Zhao Dong, have achieved some small achievements, but as a human being, you can't forget your roots!"
"Although I haven't lived in the town for a long time, my father walked out of the town."
"Including my aunt, I have been receiving the care of all the elders and fellow villagers over the years!"
"I still have a deep affection for our town!"
"So this time I come back, I'm going to invest two million to build a road for the town!"
As the words fell, the crowd burst into a loud bang.
Some insiders looked at each other, while others were unaware of the situation and spoke out.
Building bridges and roads is a good thing that will bring glory to the family and benefit the public!
Gradually, some people in the crowd took the lead in applauding, and soon, the applause was connected.
I don’t know who started shouting first, “Brother Dong, have the ability!”
"Dongzi, you're a good person, and you haven't forgotten our fellow villagers even though you have made a fortune!"
In the blink of an eye, the atmosphere turned upside down, quickly raising Zhao Dong's popularity and dispersing the pressure just now!
Seeing this, Zhao Li hid in the crowd and cursed, "Seeking fame!"
Huang Zhiqiang didn't know what Zhao Dong was selling in the gourd, so he didn't dare to force himself. He quietly gave a wink to the younger brothers behind him.
The little brothers hid in the crowd and slowly retreated!
The next moment, the patriarch was the first to express his opinion and said with a gentle attitude: "Xiaodong, this is a good thing!"
"On behalf of the town's fellow villagers, I thank you!"
Zhao Dong made a few polite words and changed the subject: "Then, do you have no objection to say so?"
The patriarch smiled, "What can I have?"
"I hope that more young people will come out in our town and become more developed outside in the future. Like you, I will come back and accumulate merits for our Zhao family!"
Zhao Dong said calmly, "Okay, then I will send this money to the economic cooperative in our town in the form of a donation. The funds will be used exclusively in the future. Is it okay?"
The patriarch nodded frequently, "No problem, of course no problem, this is a good thing, and of course I support it!"
Zhao Dong smiled, "Since that's the case, then patriarch, please call our cooperative's accountant. I want to check the accounts with him."
Hearing this, Zhao Li changed her face first and hurriedly gave Huang Zhiqiang a look.
Huang Zhiqiang clenched his fists and gritted his teeth and hated him to the extreme!
The patriarch didn't notice anything unusual, but was stunned for a moment, "Accounts? What accounts?"
Zhao Dong explained, "As the donor, I will of course check the economic situation in our tribe and confirm whether it is economically good."
"Otherwise, how could I confirm that this money would be used exclusively, rather than used for other purposes?"
The patriarch's face was a little unhappy, and his smile gradually calmed down. He did not show it too clearly, "Why, Xiaodong, you can't trust me?"
Zhao Dong said seriously: "Clan leader, this is not a question of whether you believe it or not. I think we should follow the normal rules!"
"This is a good thing, but don't make any misunderstandings, what do you think?"
Zhao Dong's request was reasonable, but the patriarch didn't say anything.
Over the years, he has been in charge of the accounts in the clan, mostly the public funds distributed by some clans, including the year-end inputs of several industries in the clan!
He had a clear conscience and naturally he was not afraid of Zhao Dong's investigation.
Just as he was about to agree, Zhao Li suddenly opened her mouth, "Why?"
"Just donate, what account do you check? Why, you can't trust my dad?"
The patriarch looked unhappy, "Xiaoli, don't be unruly. The elders are talking, why are you making trouble?"
Zhao Li walked forward without saying a word, "Dad, it's not that I have no rules, it's not like him who does this!"
"Our family has been in charge of the family's accounts over the years. When did there be any mistakes?"
"It's a thankless thing, why do he check the accounts if he says he can check them?"
"If you can't trust us, what's the matter?"
Zhao Dong smiled, "Zhao Li, are you afraid that I will check the accounts?"
Zhao Li dodged his words, "Just kidding, what's scary about me?"
Zhao Dong shrugged, "Since there is no problem, then take it out and see what's wrong?"
Zhao Li was still quibbling, "Why do you just look at it? My dad is the leader of the clan? When is it your turn to give orders in the clan?"
Zhao Dong's smile was restrained and his brows gradually frowned, "I donated so much money, and I can't even look at the accounts of the clan?"
Zhao Li spat, "If you can't believe it, then don't donate, it seems that anyone wants it!"
Zhao Dong turned his head and smiled, "Class leader, should there be any problems with the clan's accounting, right?"
"If this is true, I won't see it."
After this sentence fell, the courtyard talked out.
When it comes to money issues, everyone is prone to being sensitive.
What's more, this is everyone's money!
Now that Zhao Dong is going to donate money to the clan, he doesn't even let him look at the accounts. Could it be that there is really something wrong?
Without giving the patriarch a chance to speak, Zhao Li snatched in front of him and said, "No, what are the problems with the clan's accounts!"
"The accounts of the clan are announced at the clan meeting at the end of each year. If you don't believe it, you can ask everyone, have there been any mistakes?"
At Huang Zhiqiang's instructions, some people agreed, "Lili is right, the patriarch is in charge of the accounts, we are convinced!"
"That's right, nothing happened in the past few years!"
"Yes, we believe in the patriarch!"
Huang Zhiqiang walked forward and signaled everyone to be quiet.
He still had some prestige in the clan, and the crowd quickly calmed down.
Huang Zhiqiang spoke, "Dongzi, today is the Zhao family's clan meeting. It is logical that I shouldn't have come forward to speak."
"But the patriarch is my father-in-law. Tell me about you, just donate money. Why do you do so many tricks?"
"I'm definitely not afraid of you checking the accounts, but... who do you look down on?"
The patriarch enjoyed it on his face, but his heart began to feel doubtful.
He knows his daughter very well, and it doesn't matter to him, so he will never be so strong!
Seeing Huang Zhiqiang come out to speak, he felt that something was strange about this!
For example, although things are troublesome at the moment, the patriarch can see it very clearly.
If he really asked about the mine, he wasn't afraid of Zhao Dong!
After all, the development of mine involves a lot of connections, and at worst it is just a stoppage of production!
As long as Huang Zhiqiang dealt with Dahao and as long as it did not involve human life, it would be a small problem. Even if Zhao Dong had great skills, he would not be able to make a comeback!
Unexpectedly, Zhao Dong took a trick to remove the firewood from the cauldron, and actually checked the family's accounts in the name of donating money!
If the accounts are really wrong, how can he sit on his position as the leader?
Once you lose the position of patriarch, how can you keep the matter in the mine?
Thinking of this, the patriarch was already wet with cold sweat!
