The police came, but it was no use.
Basically, nobody liked each other.
In recent years, there were hardly any young people left in the village, everyone was busy making money, and the conflict between the two villages wasn't as deep.
Fights and the like were even less heard of.
Who dares to fight without some money these days?
However, the economic competition between the two villages had become increasingly intense, especially when it came to the annual fundraising for fireworks, which was a focal point of the competition between them.
The competition was all about who had deeper pockets, and the one who did could hold their head high in front of the villagers from the other village next year.
Moreover, there was an unwritten rule between the two villages that whoever raised the most money for fireworks could pull in the votes and become the village head.
