Despite the progress made in the brainstorming sessions, Jian remained resolute. His concerns lingered like a cloud over head as preparations for the tour gained momentum. Unbeknownst to them, Mao Li and her allies, he began organizing a public demonstration to galvanize those who felt similar.
A few days before the tour's launch, Jian announced the gathering on a popular community broad. "Join us as we stand together to protect our essence of out craft!" he declared rallying artisans around the idea of preserved tradition against perceived encroachments.
Mao Li learned of the demonstration through whispers among the townsfolk. Her heart sank, realizing that they faced a significant hurdle just as excitement was building for the tour.
Determined to address this conflict head-on, she approached Qian. "We need to intervene. Engaging with Jian and his supporters might provide a chance for dialogue instead of confrontation."
Qian agreed, recognizing the importance of maintaining community cohesion. They decided to reach out to Jian and invite him to discuss their visions for the tour openly.
