I won 90 million, all I want to do is lie down and relax!

in the afternoon.

Lu Zhaoyang took his younger brother back to school, and without lingering at his residence, he rode his bicycle to the village committee.

He and Xu Chunliang arranged to meet in the afternoon.

Lu Zhao arrived at the village committee ten minutes early at the agreed time of four o'clock.

It's the same office as last time, and there are already three people there.

Besides Xu Chunliang, the village secretary, the middle-aged man with gray hair who had been chatting with Xu Chunliang in the office when Lu Zhaoyang came last time was also there.

After Xu Chunliang's introduction, Lu Zhaoyang learned that the person was the deputy director of the village committee, named Chen Wu.

Lu Zhaoyang greeted him politely.

We'll inevitably have to deal with them in the future.

The other, younger one, was from the engineering company. He looked to be in his thirties and his name was Wu Wei.

"Manager Wu, let's get started. Old Chen and I have already reviewed the renovation plan. We mainly need to explain it to Zhaoyang in detail," Xu Chunliang said with a smile.

"Secretary Xu, this person looks unfamiliar. He doesn't seem to be from the subdistrict office. I wonder which unit he's from?" Wu Wei hesitated for a moment before asking with a smile.

"Oh dear, it's my fault, I didn't explain things properly..."

Upon hearing this, Xu Chunliang clapped his hands and then laughed heartily.

No wonder, Lu Zhaoyang has neither a work unit nor a job title; only his name was introduced just now.

"Zhaoyang just bought a house here a few days ago, and from now on he'll be a member of our Liulipu community."

Wu Wei still didn't understand.

Xu Chunliang noticed his confusion and continued to explain, "Zhaoyang's courtyard is right next to the pond. Manager Wu should remember when you visited the site before, I remember you were envious of its good location. As for this renovation, it was also thanks to Zhaoyang's generous donation. Zhaoyang promised to cover the bulk of the expenses."

"Oh?"

Wu Wei was slightly surprised.

He suddenly received a call from Xu Chunliang, who said that there was progress in securing funding for the pond renovation and asked him to come and discuss the plan again.

He naturally assumed that the neighborhood committee had approved the funding, and therefore assumed that the person they were waiting for was from the neighborhood committee.

However, he was familiar with everyone on the street, so when he saw Lu Zhaoyang's young face, he was puzzled and thought he was from some other unit.

He never expected that Lu Zhaoyang was a new resident.

He certainly remembered the location Xu Chunliang mentioned; it was an excellent location, just a few steps from the pond.

It's been transformed into something like a private pool.

But what about covering the repair costs?

Fifty thousand yuan is not much for a project, but it is a considerable sum in a county town.

Has this young man been completely fooled?

I never realized Old Xu was such a smooth talker!

But if that's not the case, then it means they're rich and don't care?

Wu Wei subtly glanced at Lu Zhaoyang's attire and felt that he was even less likely to be the one in the picture.

Wu Wei glanced at Xu Chunliang discreetly, then looked at Lu Zhaoyang and smiled, "Brother Zhaoyang, you have excellent taste! I've seen that courtyard house; it's in the best location in the entire community. And with this pond, it's even better!"

Lu Zhaoyang chuckled and said thank you.

Then Wu Wei took out the materials.

It's called a plan, but it's not really a plan.

Because the amount of work involved is relatively small.

Dredging alone took up most of the budget.

Next came the reinforcement of the bank slope, the clearing of weeds, the leveling and hardening of the surrounding roads, and the addition of basic fencing.

"Xiao Lu, I negotiated with Manager Wu again on this budget, and we've tentatively set it at 49,000. This amount will make the process faster. Also, Manager Wu has agreed to add some saplings so we can plant them together as well."

Looking at the AI ​​visual renderings provided by Wu Wei, Lu Zhaoyang nodded in agreement without much thought.

He didn't expect it to be too luxurious; as long as it was clean and flat, that would be enough.

Finally, both parties agreed that the village committee would contribute 5000 yuan, and Lu Zhaoyang would make up the rest.

The village committee does not have a full-time accountant, but it has a corporate account and an accountant.

Once the amount was finalized, Xu Chunliang immediately called over the accountant, a woman who looked to be in her forties.

Lu Zhaoyang took out his phone and transferred 50,000 yuan on the spot.

"Don't worry, Xiao Lu. The village's accounts are now managed by the street committee. There are dedicated liaisons, and the accounts are clear. Every penny is spent on the pond and will not be wasted."

Upon seeing that Lu Zhaoyang had successfully transferred the money, Xu Chunliang clapped his hands in delight and immediately said with a smile.

Putting everything else aside, he also benefits from the fact that the renovation of this pond can proceed.

"Okay, Secretary Xu, then I'll leave the rest to you." Lu Zhaoyang said politely, not at all treating himself like a god of wealth.

The accounts were certainly clear, but as for the claim that every penny was spent on the pond, Lu Zhaoyang felt that such a statement was best taken with a grain of salt.

Back when he was at GG company, he couldn't help but offer gifts to junior managers on client sides when he was out doing business.

Sometimes it even requires multiple layers of explanation.

Moreover, this is especially true in a county like Yunzhao.

It involves both engineering projects and various organizations.

Wu Wei may not be familiar with Xu Chunliang, but he most likely knows someone he knows.

Lu Zhaoyang didn't expect that all the money he spent would actually go towards the pond.

He wasn't a recent college graduate; he had a good understanding of social dynamics.

As long as the matter is eventually resolved, favors and courtesy are unavoidable.

He felt that the money was worth it.

Lu Zhaoyang didn't waste any time; he transferred the money and left immediately.

Watching the electric scooter disappear into the distance, Wu Wei smiled and said to Xu Chunliang, "Secretary Xu, this young man, Brother Lu, doesn't look very old. He looks like a recent college graduate. I didn't expect him to be so generous. He pulled out 50,000 yuan without even blinking. Secretary Xu has been raising funds for the past two years, but in the end, I didn't expect to persuade just this one person and get it done. Young people are easier to talk to, aren't they? Secretary Xu has really struck gold!"

Xu Chunliang looked away and glanced at Wu Wei.

Lu Zhaoyang guessed correctly; Wu Wei was introduced through connections from higher-ups.

He sensed the joke in her voice and chuckled, "Manager Wu, did you think I persuaded Xiao Lu?"

Wu Wei smiled, neither confirming nor denying.

"You're wrong!"

Yesterday, after returning home, Xu Chunliang happily told his wife about someone who wanted to donate money to repair the pond.

The article also highlighted Lu Zhaoyang's magnanimity in donating money anonymously.

But after lying in bed, as he recalled the entire conversation with Lu Zhaoyang, the more he pondered it, the more he felt something was amiss.

The entire conversation was half-hearted, and Lu Zhaoyang seemed to agree to the donation only because he was reluctant.

But upon further reflection, Xu Chunliang realized that he had been in control of the entire process, and Lu Zhaoyang was in control of his own rhythm.

If it weren't for the emphasis on keeping a low profile and remaining anonymous, Xu Chunliang probably wouldn't have thought much of it.

Young people are afraid that others won't know if they do a good deed; they all want to show off.

Lu Zhaoyang was able to refuse so calmly and firmly.

"By the way, Manager Wu, regarding Xiao Lu's donation this time, it's best if just a few of us know about it, and don't reveal it to others. This was Xiao Lu's specific insistence."

"Hmm? You're not telling anyone?"

Wu Wei was somewhat incredulous. "He donated money but didn't want anyone to know. Is he a modern-day Lei Feng?"

Xu Chunliang did not explain, but in fact he had already roughly guessed what Lu Zhaoyang was thinking.

He was a newly moved-in resident from out of town.

Not wanting to stand out is also to avoid causing trouble later.

Seeing Wu Wei's surprised expression, Xu Chunliang thought to himself, "That's the normal reaction."

This young Lu is quite interesting.
