Chapter 1019: Chapter 1019

“Oh, so you're Leonard.”

Upon hearing the name, the young man immediately burst into laughter.

“According to the generational hierarchy in our clan, I should address you as Uncle Leonard. Uncle Leonard, my name is Odin Wilson. You can simply call me Odin.”

Upon seeing Odin calling him “Uncle Leonard,” he was instantly greatly satisfied.

He laughed heartily at Odin. “Very good, very good! You're truly worthy of being a descendant of our Wilson family. Jennifer, where are the monetary gifts you prepared for relatives? Bring them out and distribute them.”

Before they arrived, Jennifer and Leonard had already agreed on the plan. Each of Jennifer's peers would receive five hundred, those younger than her would get one hundred, and all of Jennifer's elders would receive a thousand.

So Jennifer gave Jane a signal, and the latter immediately took out a stack of monetary gifts, each containing five hundred.

Odin would definitely be thrilled to receive a monetary gift.

In fact, the reason he was sweet-talking was because he got his eye on receiving Leonard's monetary gift.

The Wilson family had really developed rapidly over these years, and their progress was quite impressive.

Therefore, many members of the Wilson family who were living abroad had started to return to Wilson Village over the years.

After all, everyone cared about saving face.

No one wanted to return to their roots only to be looked down upon, so everyone was quite generous when they returned there.

“Odin, since today is the Wilson family's banquet, why aren't you attending?”

Odin smiled at Leonard and replied, “Uncle Leonard, there's something you may not know. Our Wilson Village covers a large area. Apart from this intersection, we also have wineries, farms, plantations, and other Wilson family businesses that need looking after. So, only those of your seniority, like you, Uncle Leonard, are eligible to attend the family banquet. We younger ones are fine with just having a meal in the evening.”

Upon hearing Odin's words, Leonard nodded to show that he understood.

Indeed, the Wilson family lives up to its name. Not only were the generations clearly distinguished, but each person also had their own affairs to attend to.

“All right. Then, let's meet tonight. I have to attend the family banquet now. Otherwise, I won't make it in time.”

As soon as Leonard was about to get in the vehicle, Odin hurriedly said, “Uncle Leonard, wait a moment. There's something else I need to discuss with you.”

“Is there anything else?”

Odin pointed to the road beneath his feet and said, “Uncle Leonard, you see this road, don't you?”

“Yes.”

“Uncle Leonard, what do you think of this road?”

“Very good indeed. It's well-constructed, straight, and leveled. It should lead directly to Wilson Village, right?”

“Isn't it a straight path now?” Odin said to Leonard with a smile, “Our Wilson Village wasn't like this before, as it was full of potholes everywhere. But then, wasn't it Mr. Montgomery who said that to get rich, we must first build roads? So he rallied the people of our Wilson Village to pool money and fix this road first. Back then, our Wilson Village was so poor that every household had to tighten their belts to contribute money for road construction.

Of course, everyone is living a better life now, but we still have to repair this road every year. This is for the sake of our Wilson Village's reputation.

So, Uncle Leonard, as a part of the Wilson family, don't you think you should chip in a bit for the road repairs?”

After listening to Odin speak for so long, Leonard realized he had been waiting for him all along.

Leonard asked, “How much does it cost?”

“Not much, just a hundred thousand a year.”

A hundred thousand a year? That's not a lot?

Leonard immediately said with some embarrassment, “We can indeed afford the hundred thousand a year. However, we don't come back often, so wouldn't this amount be a bit too much?”

“Uncle Leonard, what are you talking about? Only members of the Wilson family can walk this path. Therefore, only members of the Wilson family pay for this path. Unless, Uncle Leonard, you're not here to acknowledge your ancestry this time.”

What Odin said made Leonard's face turn ashen.
