Modernizing
Davao took pride in his farm and his fields even if the the town square was a little close for comfort. The town was only populated with 2,000 residents but as the country was modernizing, more and more people were flocking to what was a small town.
This was good since it meant more demand for his produce. A bigger town was more hungry after all. But even though it had short term positives, he had no idea what consequences there would be.
