As it approached nine in the morning, Zhang Mingyu led Jiang Xiaobai toward the village committee. The teachers had already organized the students and brought them over. Today would be a big day for them, with all classes suspended for half a day.
Upon arriving, Jiang Xiaobai looked at the empty plot of land before him and recalled how Ma Qingshan had treated him to a meal here a few days ago, yet now it had been cleared flat.
"Oh, Jiang, you're here."
Ma Qingshan saw Jiang Xiaobai and quickly walked over, the two shaking hands.
"Village Chief Ma, you're giving great support for the elementary school construction." Jiang Xiaobai said.
Ma Qingshan replied, "What's my support worth? It's just a bit of what I can manage. It's mainly your achievement. Without your funding, this school wouldn't be built."
After exchanging pleasantries, Zhang Mingyu said, "It's nine o'clock already, but the leader hasn't arrived."
