Song Tan's Notes

Chapter 1541. Occupying Land

Such an activity center has only benefits and no harm, so naturally the villagers are not unhappy about it.

So the question is, this area is not small, and every inch of soil in the village is owned by someone, so how do we choose a place?

Building such an activity center in the countryside is not like building a CBD in the city, so it is not prosperous or not. Therefore, if the space is occupied, then it is really occupied.

If it was a wasteland before, and people were given a little money, naturally no one would be unhappy.

But now every family knows that growing vegetables can also bring in a lot of income. No matter whether they can make money from it or not, they are reluctant to give it up.

In this regard, Secretary Xiao Zhu had a good idea before the meeting.

But she didn't say anything at the moment, and focused on discussing with everyone - there are not many people in the village, so the place doesn't need to be too big. If you don't count the football field, one acre of land will be the maximum.

However, although Song Tan said that she would pay for everyone to play, who knows how to play football now? Their village can't even get enough people to play! Seeing that everyone is eager to make money now, Secretary Xiao Zhu took the initiative to lay off the team.

In short, one acre of land is enough!

After all, no one has such a spacious room for weddings or funerals.

But now, people started arguing again over the choice of this acre of land.

They are not quarreling out of real anxiety, they just want the village to pay more compensation - the land price now cannot be higher than before!

The team leader was very unhappy: "What's the point of asking for a few more dollars to get rich? The old Song family is doing good things for the village, but you're still making excuses!"

"I just don't believe it. You won't be able to use that place in the future!"

He has made a lot of money now, and can even say "that little money". Everyone was embarrassed when they heard this, but...

They would be happy to do this, but why should they only occupy my land?

What is worrying is not the scarcity of wealth but the inequality of wealth. That’s how it is.

Secretary Xiao Zhu and the team leader actually had a few options that they thought were good. Since the unpleasant words had already been said, she simply spoke:

"How about this, since everyone is reluctant to give up their own land, let's pick the land that can't be cultivated now - Zhou Maozhu, is Uncle Maozhu here? The two wastelands in front of your old lady's house have not been cleaned up for many years, and the soil is poor. Are you willing to lease them to the village?"

If you want to farm, the vines and saplings of all sizes in the field will be enough to keep you busy.

But if it is to be built as an activity plaza, the place happens to be on the edge of the current small square, and the geographical location is also excellent.

When it is built later, if something big happens, we can connect this side in as well, and it won’t be a problem for daily parking here.

It is very close to the roadside, and people from the whole village are used to strolling around here. It is really a good location.

The most important thing is that Old Lady Zhou is still in prison! No matter how old she is, poisoning is a big deal, and she will be imprisoned for a year or so.

She didn't farm, but lived a comfortable life by taking advantage of other people's businesses. Now that Party Secretary Xiao Zhu brought up the matter, no one said a word.

Zhou Maozhu was still feeling upset about the tofu, and when he heard that they wanted to use their own land, he felt very uncomfortable.

He hesitated: "This land is not mine..."

There is no point in saying this.

Everyone in the surrounding area knew about Old Lady Zhou's extreme charisma. All her children stopped associating with her 10 or 20 years ago, and now they don't even show up to see her.

He and his wife are the only ones staying in the village.

Now there are only two plots of land, one acre at most, and the rent is only a thousand yuan a year. If the brothers and sisters share it, each of them will get three or two hundred yuan, which is not enough to make ends meet.

Secretary Xiao Zhu did not force it: "If you can't make the decision, forget it - we only need one acre of land in total. We can't take good farmland yet, so the price will definitely be high."

"Who's willing?"

After saying this, there was no movement for a while. After a while, Zhou Shunshui, a villager who was Zhou Maozhu's brother, raised his arm and said, "My land is less than one acre. Do you want it?"

He is older than Zhou Maozhu, and his children have all started their own families. Now the couple takes care of their own vegetable garden, and it is quite tiring to do odd jobs occasionally, and they cannot take care of all the mountain land.

If the village wants it, they will give it to them. They didn't ask anyone to take the land, they just use it to build something.

How can you not use it?

Of course, he and his wife also wanted to save face, so they thought about giving away their land. After the house was built, tourists from other places would come to ask about it, and he could brag about it, which would make him feel very happy.

Zhou Shunshui’s land?

Secretary Xiao Zhu pulled up the picture and took a look at it, and couldn't help but laugh.

There is no other reason. Although Zhou Shunshui's land is less than one mu, it is also 1 mu, and it is also connected to the small square on the other side. The newly built house of old man Li can be seen across the road.

Secretary Xiao Zhu immediately made the decision: "Okay! This is the one! When we go back to build it, we can slightly adjust the small square in front. Once the two places are connected, one acre of land will be enough."

Zhou Shunshui didn't say anything. The two plots of land were adjacent to the square on one side and the road on the other. One side was a rammed earth slope, and the other side was a poured concrete base. The drainage was originally a bit affected, and it was inconvenient to water anything you planted, and it was easy to get waterlogged.

If I give it out now, regardless of anything else, when I need it in the future, will they still accept the money?

He is old, but his abacus still makes noises!

Zhou Maozhu looked at his enthusiastic appearance, and thought about the fact that he now had no children to burden him, and he couldn't help feeling even worse.

At this moment, he even had the urge to use the two plots of land in his family!

But thinking about the money he earned from growing vegetables, he looked at Li Lanhua and said nothing.

……

Secretary Xiao Zhu didn't care about all the twists and turns. She had been working in the countryside for a year or two and had discovered that -

If you want to lead people to do things, it is not enough to just give them benefits, you also have to teach them a lesson.

This "learning the lesson" does not mean to casually give others a warning or something like that, but to make people truly feel what it means to "gain small profits and suffer big losses" and what it means to "follow D".

Therefore, after getting the approval, he acted decisively, immediately took out the standard contract and asked people to sign it directly.

It's just a piece of land! Zhou Shunshui signed it without hesitation.

When everything was over, Secretary Xiao Zhu said slowly, "This takes up land. I know why everyone is unwilling. Although this thousand is a lot, it can't be compared with growing vegetables."

"But we won't let our fellow villagers suffer any loss."

"Zhou Shunshui, Uncle Shunshui, after we build the land, you won't have to pay for using it for weddings or funerals."

"In addition, villagers can spend as they please on weekdays, but if they want to spend money on weddings or funerals, they have to pay 300 yuan at a time - this money is used to hire people to set up tables, clean up, build sheds for sunny days and rainy days, and arrange for large fans, water and electricity, etc."

"This money and this job will belong to Zhou Shunshui's family within three years."

Secretary Xiao Zhu finished speaking slowly, looking at the different expressions below, with a subtle feeling in his heart:

"This is also agreed by the Song family - after all, once the land is covered with concrete, it will be difficult to grow crops. This can be considered as a kind of compensation from their family."
