Jody is craZzzzZZZZzy. (chapter 5)

Well, Jody realizes he can profit, and also run "the show." Jody starts to buy all of this land and greatly helps out the town of Eatonville. Jody improves the town by building a store and post office. This is greatly appreciated because Eatonville was just a bunch of shacks, and was pretty much in a sad economic state. Jody is allowed to act this way because well, no one else is willing to take charge. He is also a man with money, while they are just poor people. They couldn't touch him, and they also would not want to mess with someone who is actually somewhat interested in their town. Jody was also very strict and got people to do whatever he wanted them to do. He was able to get the town to work for him, and he also flaunted his money. He built a huge house for Janie with nice things inside of it. Jody was also named the mayor of the town. This gives him a ton of power and respect from the people. Jody basically ran the town, and got it to become somewhat sucessful, even though it was still full of shacks. Roads and stores were built in the town, and new residents even bought lots from Jody's newly purchased land. Jody also installed a streat lamp into the town and produced a big party for it, complete with guests from surrounding towns. Jody then even ran a resident out of town after he was caught stealing. All of these town improvements, wealth, and his position as mayor attribute as to why he was able to act the way he did. Their was nothing anybody in the town could do to stop him. Money talks...
