Lin Nianhe listened intently, nodding seriously, still waiting for the "but".
But there was no "but".
Old Secretary said, "So, I told them in a meeting before we started digging the well, if they want a machine well, they must send their children to school... Comrade Xiao Lin, if they ask, just say I said it."
Lin Nianhe originally thought the Old Secretary wanted to make a request, but it turned out he played the villain.
Lin Nianhe looked at the slightly yellowed water in the cup, and after a moment of silence said, "During the students' time in school, we will subsidize each person two yuan per month. If they get into college, we will cover the tuition for the first two years of college and provide monthly living allowances."
"There are plenty of opportunities to earn money in the city. I will give them a two-year buffer period. If they know their family is poor and still refuse to lower themselves to find a job, I will not continue to support such people."
