With Zhao Sanquan and He Ping'an taking the lead, the other hesitant villagers had no more reservations and quickly joined in, soon unanimously agreeing.
Ling Feng chuckled and loudly said to the crowd, "Everyone, rest assured. Everything I've promised will come true. Later, I'll draft a contract, and we'll proceed according to it!"
"It doesn't matter. We trust you. We can't understand contracts anyway; they're pointless!" He Ping'an said dismissively.
Ling Feng smiled. "That won't do. The contract is proof for profit sharing. Without it, I won't give out any money when the time comes!"
That one line amused everyone. They thought to themselves that when the time comes, they'd better safeguard the contract properly, and couldn't afford to lose it.
Then Ling Feng turned to Hu Dalin. "Village Chief Hu, I'm not familiar with this area. I'll leave the task of finding machinery to clear the site to you!"
