The village head had laid down the law, so Xue Yang's family had no choice but to lead the effort. Many things were like that; as soon as others knew you had a bit of money, you couldn't avoid certain obligations.
"Actually, it won't take much. We've already budgeted it out. The total renovation of the ancestral hall will cost about one million, and you just need to contribute the bulk of it," the village head said.
However, he didn't specify exactly how much "the bulk" was. It was up to Xue Yang's family to decide. But one thing was certain: it wouldn't be a small amount.
"Village Head, surely we're not the only family leading the effort?" Xue Yang asked.
"Naturally. This is the whole village's affair, so of course, it can't just be your family. Other families have already donated. Here's the list of names and amounts. You can take a look," the village head replied.
