If You Won't Pay 88,000, Nobody Gets to Build This Road
Building a road in the village should have been a great public-spirited undertaking that benefited everyone. However, Zhou Chuan's second uncle, Zhou Dewang, obstructs the project on the grounds of feng shui and demands 88,000 yuan as a fee to ward off evil spirits, bringing construction to a standstill. Unwilling to give in to unreasonable demands, Zhou Chuan decides to reroute the road in accordance with the law, even if it costs an additional 140,000 yuan, so that the road can be completed. Once the new road opens, the entire village benefits, while the stretch in front of Zhou Dewang's house remains a muddy track. As his son's wedding runs into difficulties and his agritourism business suffers, Zhou Dewang gradually experiences the consequences of his own choices. Faced with reality, he finally understands that what truly brings prosperity is not superstition and scheming, but solid roads and the goodwill of the people.
