Mayor Liu took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, took out a manuscript from his pocket, looked at it, and then continued:
"Well, please be patient and continue to listen to me.
So, according to the meaning of this manuscript written by my son..."
David rolled his eyes on the spot, Dad, what do you mean? He quickly snatched the manuscript from behind and whispered:
"Dad, it's your own wish."
Mayor Liu was slightly startled, and then quickly changed his mind. He didn't care about other people's opinions anyway, so he said without any embarrassment:
"It's my own opinion, um, what I mean is that the church should be reopened!
The reopening of churches is good for everyone. There are pots, pans, grains and oils, and there are many, many things you can receive.
As long as the church opens, everyone can make a fortune together.
How about everyone holding up the banners and voting now?"
When these people came to the restaurant, David had arranged in advance for people to make a lot of messy banners saying things like "I agree", "Believe in my Lord", "My Lord is Almighty", etc.
As for my refusal, there is no such thing as my objection. Even if I want to object, there is no way.
Uncle Jiu's face darkened as he watched this scene. This was a blatant behind-the-scenes operation!
"We object!"
The wine uncle stood up and shouted loudly.
At this time, David opened his mouth and said:
"Uncle Jiu, it's you who are against it, not you!"
Uncle Jiu looked around and saw that no one was on his side. He gritted his teeth secretly. A bunch of idiots are trying to make a fortune, make your sister's fortune, and I don't know how they will die by then!
However, Uncle Jiu looked ahead and saw two people who were not holding up the banner.
It was Xu Ce and Ye Qian, both of them were smiling and looking like they were watching a show.
Uncle Jiu looked at Xu Ce, the way he looked at him, his expression...he seemed to be gloating about a good show.
Uncle Jiu didn’t believe that Xu Ce didn’t see the fishy location of the church.
Uncle Jiu said:
"Who said I'm just a person? Taoist Xu and Pindao didn't agree!"
Only then did someone notice Xu Ce, and then David laughed loudly and said:
"Uncle Jiu, you are probably joking. This Taoist priest is not from Jiuquan Town. He is not qualified to vote."
Uncle Jiu snorted coldly. He finally figured out that all of this has something to do with David, an idiot. Mad, after drinking some foreign ink, he didn’t even know his own surname. How could he make a fortune!
"Pindao doesn't think so. The Taoist sects in the world are all from the same family. Since Pindao is from Jiuquan Town, then Taoist Xu and Pindao are from the same sect and are related. In this way, they can also be regarded as people from Jiuquan Town!"
David rolled his eyes, the Taoist sects in the world are all from the same family, haha, where are the scammers?
However, David was joking. Anyway, with so many people at the scene agreeing, even if Xu Ce was added, it would not have any impact on the result, so he said:
"Okay, Uncle Jiu, let your fellow Taoist priest Xu say a few words and see if he can convince everyone!"
"Daozhang Xu..."
The wine uncle bowed his hand to Xu Ce.
Xu Ce laughed and dragged him in, just to watch a farce.
"Uncle Jiu, I naturally support you. After all, you and I are both practitioners. Of course we can see the problem with the location of the foreign church."
Xu Ce said something casually, but did not mention anything more. It was the same sentence. Xu Ce was an outsider, and there was no point in getting involved too much.
And Xu Ce also planned that if the new system sign-in task was not issued tonight, he would have to rush to Renjia Town early tomorrow morning, and there was no need to stay.
"David, the mayor, fellow villagers and elders, you have also heard that it was not just Pindao who said this. Director Xu also had the same opinion as Pindao, that foreign churches cannot be opened.
Once it is turned on, there will be big chaos in our Jiuquan Town, and people will die!"
David took the words with a sneer and said:
"Uncle Jiu, although we all know that you have some abilities, it's not right for you to be like this now.
The opening of the foreign church will be beneficial to the people of Jiuquan Town, but you insist on blocking it, and you still scare me by saying that if something goes wrong, people will die.
Besides, birth, old age, illness and death are common things. Everyone has one day. Just like a few days ago, Mr. Wan from Wanlin Village died of old age. At that time, the Western church was not open. Could it be that it was still a Western church?
What was the reason that caused Old Man Wan to die?"
David's words are heart-breaking, and they are obviously a perfect match.
"David, you are using strong words! The foreign church is the Three Evil Positions, the Three Evil Positions, the position of great evil!
Have you forgotten what happened twenty years ago?
Have you forgotten why the foreign church was closed for twenty years?"
Uncle Jiu said angrily.
Some of the people present had experienced what happened back then, and their expressions changed slightly.
When David saw this, he quickly said:
"What happened twenty years ago, haha, it was a bit evil, but it has all subsided. Now twenty years have passed, and nothing has happened.
We still have to look forward to the future, after all, the things that were rumored back then have not happened again in the past twenty years.
What does this mean?
It’s explained that the matter is over!
That being the case, why do we still remain conservative and stagnant?
Since the church can bring benefits to all of us, I think we should accept new things. Only in this way can we bring changes to our lives and make them better, don’t you think so!”
The people who had some doubts before were immediately dispelled by David's words.
He also said in a flurry of words:
"Yes, David is right."
"Well, I agree with what David said. As a person, you have to look forward when you are alive. You cannot live in the past forever."
"You're right. No matter what you think, I agree with reopening the church."
"Uncle Jiu, please save yourself the trouble. We all know that you are a truly capable person. Don't worry, if there is any red or white matter in the town, we will definitely come to you."
"Yeah yeah……"
"..."
When Uncle Jiu saw this, he felt a chill in his heart. What a bunch of stupid people and idiots!
"You bunch of bastards! I'm too lazy to leave you. Don't come to me if you get unlucky. You deserve to die!"
Uncle Jiu could no longer suppress the anger in his heart. After cursing, he threw away his hands and walked outside.
Everyone present was a little embarrassed. In fact, some people still believed in Uncle Jiu in their hearts, but...
Thinking of the benefits brought by the reopening of the church, those gifts, things that can be seen and touched, compared to trusting Uncle Jiu, ahem, it seems that the latter is more real.
After all, if you believe in Uncle Jiu, you will get money for Uncle Jiu. If you believe in the church, you can get good things from the church. There is still a gap.
