Chapter 97: Mo Yan’s Tactics (2)_1
Mo Yanshen looked deeply at Mo Dashan, mentally adding him to the "Refuse to Associate" list.
Feeling Mo Yanshen’s gaze, Mo Dashan’s heart trembled with the sensation of having lost something important. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but Mo Yanshen shifted her attention to Clan Leader Mo Fang.
"Clan Leader, do you also believe that my family should pay this large sum of Silver Coins entirely?"
Mo Fang, looking at the weighty gaze of Mo Yanshen and then at the expectant faces of the clan members, only felt an unbearable dryness in his throat: "This... this..."
"Clan Leader, isn’t this what we had all previously agreed upon? What’s there to hesitate about?"
Seeing Mo Fang not speaking, Mo Shan’s complexion changed and he couldn’t help but urge him on.
Those few who had previously echoed Mo Shan, seeing the Clan Leader hesitate, did not dare to speak further. Others, who had been opposed to the idea from the start, stood mockingly on the side, thinking Mo Shan was utterly foolish.
Pressed by these urgencies, Mo Fang began to sweat profusely. He shouted at Mo Dashan, who was still chattering, "Shut up, I have my own considerations!"
After shouting, he forced a smile on his face and said somewhat nervously to Mo Yanshen, "This matter was just to give you an early notice, to let you prepare in advance. How could we make you pay all the Silver Coins? Postponing the building of the ancestral hall for a year or two is no issue, as long as you keep it in mind."
From the moment Mo Yanshen spoke, with Mo Qingze maintaining a silent stance, Mo Fang knew the matter was doomed to fail. Although it upset him, he also knew that this wasn’t Mo Family Village and that the Mo Qingze family was no longer as poor as before. Now, he must foster good relations and not offend them.
