The village head never dread that the scene just now would be witnessed by the county head himself, and his heart was suddenly a bit flustered.
"County head, you’re so esteed to visit, why didn’t you let us know in advance? I could have prepared to welco you!" The village head said with a forced smile, trying to change the subject.
The county head said, "If I had inford you ahead of ti, how could I have seen such a spectacular scene just now!"
The village head wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "County head’s esteed visit really deserves a grand welco. How about this, I invite you to the village committee office for a sit, so I can host you properly?"
The county head waved his hand and said, "No need, I just dropped by as I had so free ti. I still have to rush back to the county later. Since I happened upon your situation here, I’ll offer so advice."
The village head laughed and said, "As for the construction of the public restroom, since the villagers have differing opinions, I think we should temporarily set it aside and discuss it at a later date."
Lin Fan said, "How can we discuss it later! I think it’s great to discuss it now, especially since the county head is here. He can certainly provide fair opinions, it’s simply a lucky chance we can’t pass up! Village head, you’re really fortunate to have the county head involved in this matter."
The village head cursed Lin Fan ten thousand tis in his heart, this rascal just won’t let go of this issue.
The county head said, "Divine Doctor Lin makes a good point, since I’m here, let’s have a discussion. This concerns rural poverty alleviation and prosperity, it’s worth spending my ti on."
Since the county head said so, what else could the village head say?
The village head could only nod his head hesitantly, "Alright."
The county head said, "I just heard Divine Doctor Lin’s analysis and thought it made a lot of sense. Old Chen, why don’t you agree? Also, tell why you chose this location?"
The village head was montarily speechless, "This..."
His reason was purely to get back at Lin Fan, there was no other reason. To ask him to co up with a convincing reason on the spot was beyond him.
Lin Fan smiled and said, "The village head wants to build a public restroom opposite my house purely for revenge, because I refused to treat his son, so he’s retaliating against !"
The county head furrowed his eyebrows, staring at the village head, "Is there such a thing?"
The village head hurriedly replied, "No, absolutely no such thing. The reason I chose to build the public restroom here is that I think it’s suitable, and this is unutilized public land, fitting to make use of, not to avenge Lin Fan!"
Lin Fan said, "Looks like I was being petty, misunderstood the village head. Since the village head is so selfless, that’s wonderful. Then let’s handle it impartially. Now that the village head wants to build a public restroom at my doorstep, my opinion is to build it next to the village head’s ho instead. Comparatively, building a restroom here is inconvenient for tourists, which is unfavorable for the developnt of village tourism. But building it next to the village head’s house is convenient and suitable. From an impartial viewpoint, even a fool can see which option is better!"
The county head nodded, "Divine Doctor Lin makes a lot of sense. Old Chen, I think let’s do it like this, build the public restroom in the vegetable garden next to your house. Building a public restroom in the village is indeed a great thing, it needs to be implented quickly. I hope that when I co next ti, I can use the restroom."
The village head was almost in tears, he was originally trying to get back at Lin Fan by building a public restroom at his doorstep, now the tables have turned, and it’s to be built next to his own ho!
The public restroom stinks, how will he live there in the future!
Lin Fan clapped his hands and laughed, "The county head is truly wise. Village head, you wouldn’t disagree, right? Just as you said, sacrificing a bit of personal interest for the collective good is justified. You surely wouldn’t refuse, would you?"
The village head held back his pain and said, "Lin Fan, what are you talking about? I never said I wouldn’t do it."
Lin Fan said, "That’s great then, the village head is willing to build a public restroom next to his ho for the benefit of the village, really comndable, truly our good village head. Where’s the applause, everyone?"
Lin Fan led the applause.
"Good!"
The villagers all joined in applause.
Of course, it’s good. Building a public restroom at the village head’s place, not at theirs, and making the village head eat humble pie, the spectacle can’t be big enough.
Lin Fan laughed and said, "But, let remind the village head, public restrooms stink. In the future, every ti the village head opens his door, he’ll sll the restroom. Luckily the village head taught us, that’s no problem, because as he just said personally, one doesn’t notice it after a while."
Everyone couldn’t help but chuckle.
Lin Fan’s satire was spot-on.
The village head had indeed said such words when he morally pressured the Lin Family before, now Lin Fan used the sa words to comfort the village head, this mockery was powerful.
The village head’s face went pale and flushed, he truly wanted to strangle Lin Fan, this rascal was too detestable. Building a public restroom next to his ho was bad enough, and then to endure this rascal’s mockery!
He was very puzzled, how did the county head co here? If the county head hadn’t co, Lin Fan would have been in his hands!
"Regarding the public restroom, I think it’s settled, Old Chen, get it started quickly. After a while, I want to personally check it out." The county head said with a smile.
Inside, the village head was weeping, tearfully he replied, "Yes, I understand."
The county head no longer paid attention to the village head and walked up to Lin Fan, respectfully saying, "Divine Doctor Lin, may I speak with you for a mont? This ti I specifically ca to thank you, just hadn’t had the chance to express my gratitude properly."
What?
Specifically to express thanks?
Everyone looked at each other, the county head treating Lin Fan with such respect, what’s going on?
"County head, your esteed visit to our West River Village this ti is because of him?" the village head couldn’t help but ask, pointing at Lin Fan.
The county head said, "Correct, to speak of it, there’s not much to it. My mother had a stroke the other day and had surgery, almost dying on the operating table. Divine Doctor Lin stepped in and saved her just in ti. I managed to find out Divine Doctor Lin was in West River Village, so today I made a point to co here to thank him."
Everyone was stunned.
Oh my!
Lin Fan is really sothing else, actually getting the county head to personally co and thank him!
Who in West River Village can achieve that!
The only one who can do it is Lin Fan!
Looks like Lin Fan’s dical skill has conquered the county head.
The village head was on the verge of tears, no wonder the county head was supporting Lin Fan, turns out Lin Fan was the county head’s benefactor, damn it... If only he’d known, he wouldn’t have done all this!
Now it’s turned on him, harming Lin Fan wasn’t successful, but instead he hard himself!
Now with the county head personally supervising the public restroom construction, he has no choice but to build it, just thinking about having a public restroom right beside his ho, and the stench wafting in every ti the door opens, the village head was collapsing.
The restroom dispute ended with the village head conceding defeat.
Afterward, Lin Fan invited the county head to the clinic for a chat, but little did they know, it would lead to another series of events.
