Chapter 118 Chapter 118 Official Notice.

Liu Suqin was not surprised at all to see Li Liang at Chen Jiaming's wedding. Li Liang, this reliable friend, was originally introduced to her by Chen Jiaming.

They had known each other much earlier than they did.

It's just that Chen Jiaming didn't have much interaction with Li Liang in the past. He felt that Li Liang was a reliable agent in his words and deeds, with a bit of the simplicity and generosity of a northern man, unlike some other agents who only talked big, so he recommended this person to Lin Nanjiang.

Later, Liu Suqin's family successfully bought a house and settled down in the interior of the country, and their business was booming. Chen Jiaming accidentally discovered that after they made money, they liked to buy old and dilapidated houses with small storefronts. From being curious and puzzled at first, he became eager to join the army of house buyers.

Because there is a building for rent in his hometown, his parents earn several thousand yuan a month from the rent alone. He lives in a fully paid-for villa in the city center. Chen Jiaming never planned to buy more houses. He felt that his family had enough houses. It would be better to invest in stocks with the money, which would make money quickly and provide flexible funds.

He initially tried to recommend this financial management method to Lin Nanjiang and Liu Suqin, but unfortunately he failed. The former didn't understand, and the latter brainwashed him instead.

Liu Suqin's philosophy is that eggs should not be put in one basket. With a reliable guide, she is also willing to try the new thing of stock trading, but she will only take out 10 to 20 percent of her income for financial management at most, so that she can keep it stable regardless of profit or loss. Another part of the income is deposited in a fixed deposit, and the bank interest rate is still very good at the moment. The remaining half of the income is invested in real estate and shops. People define these as real estate, which means that they are the most stable and lasting, and play an important role in resisting economic risks.

These words enlightened Chen Jiaming. He thought that he had used all his income to invest in stocks. Although the rate of return was good, the risk was also not small. Once he was trapped, it would be like going back to the time before liberation. He should consider diversifying his investments.

Although Chen Jiaming felt that buying a house as a rental was too old-fashioned and did not suit his cool personality, he could not accept just going to the bank to make a fixed deposit. Choosing the lesser of two evils, Chen Jiaming finally found Li Liang and asked him to help keep an eye out for some shops with good locations and prices.

With the example of Liu Suqin, the several shops that Chen Jiaming successfully acquired were also handed over to Li Liang to manage, and he was only responsible for collecting money.

It's no wonder that when Chen Jiaming was trying to please his father-in-law, these shops under his name earned him a lot of goodwill.

He's parents are old-fashioned and most dissatisfied with Chen Jiaming's work and academic qualifications. If he was suspected of being addicted to stock trading again, they would have struck out directly. Fortunately, he turned over a new leaf and successfully impressed his picky father-in-law with his good looks, personal income, affluent family background and steady and practical financial management concepts, and successfully won the heart of the beautiful girl.

Friendships are built through interaction. Chen Jiaming and Li Liang have been working happily together for the past two years and have gradually become pretty good friends. Liu Suqin and others are in the same circle, so it is reasonable not to leave them out of the wedding invitation.

However, Li Liang was quite busy today. He arrived on a motorcycle shortly before the banquet started. Liu Suqin had not seen him in the crowd before.

Liu Suqin reacted calmly to the bombshell he dropped upon arrival. She drank half a bowl of soup to calm herself before speaking slowly, "You're talking about the area where Brother Quansheng used to live. But aren't there rumors of demolitions there every year? I've heard so much that my ears are almost callused."

She had a good memory. When she bought that piece of land, Li Liang had told her that they had heard rumors of demolition earlier. The rumors were so convincing that the price was much higher than other old and dilapidated houses.

Liu Suqin also bought it with the idea of ​​taking a gamble. If she won, she would make a lot of money. If she didn't, she wouldn't lose anything either. Anyway, the housing prices would go up sooner or later.

After getting it, they would hear a wave of gossip almost every year at the beginning of the year. In the first two years, they were quite excited, with all kinds of expectations and secret joy, thinking that this huge wealth would finally be theirs.

Unfortunately, there is talk of demolition every year, but no follow-up.

If you talk about the "wolf cry" thing too much, it will cause a rebellious mentality. Liu Suqin now feels that the house they live in is more likely to be demolished than that old and dilapidated house.

Not only her, Lin Nanjiang and Lin Quansheng also did not react to the news. One was drinking tea calmly, and the other was busy picking up food for his wife.

Li Liang wasn't discouraged by this. He winked and reminded them, "Rumors used to only circulate for a while at the beginning of the year, but now it's May and they haven't died down yet, and no one has come out to clarify. Don't you think something's wrong?"

If there weren't so many people at the wedding banquet, he really wanted to tell them that with his many years of experience and extensive network of contacts, there was a 70% to 80% chance that it would be successful this time.

Facing the skeptical looks from several people, Li Liang could only say vaguely, "Anyway, I have a feeling that everything will be settled soon. Remember to pay attention to the notifications in the next two months."

With his repeated emphasis, Liu Suqin and the others also expressed some anticipation and joy. Lin Quansheng even put his arm around his shoulder and urged, "Brother Liang, you're the most well-informed among us. If you have any accurate news, don't forget to let us know."

"Of course. We're in the same group. As soon as I get the news, I'll definitely bring you along."

Li Liang kept his word. One afternoon at the end of the month, he rode his motorcycle to the photography studio, sweating profusely. Without saying anything, he began to reveal the big news between breaths. "Aqin, the official document has arrived! It's posted at the street office. I heard the staff are still there. Let's go over there quickly. If you have any questions, you can ask them in person... By the way, where are Nanjiang and Quansheng? I just passed by the store and didn't see them."

Liu Suqin thought he was so happy that he was silly. At three o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Nanjiang and his friends had closed the shop and gone home to rest.

But it's not difficult to understand the other person's excitement. My heart is pounding so hard that it seems like it's going to jump out of my chest.

However, Liu Suqin no longer needed to rely on demolition to change her fate. Her excitement gave her a bit more rationality than Li Liang, allowing her to clearly remind him, "I don't know when the staff will leave. Brother Liang, let's split up. You go to the scene first to get the details. I'll go home and call Nanjiang and Quansheng, and we'll meet at the neighborhood office. How about that?"

Li Liang always said that he had seen too many such scenes, and he was battle-hardened and experienced. However, when he really became one of them, all the theoretical knowledge he had disappeared. He ran around like a headless fly. The first thing he did was to find Liu Suqin and the others. It was also out of instinct that he was looking for companions, because there is strength in numbers.

Listening to Liu Suqin's calm and clear arrangements, he seemed to be infected and calmed down. "Okay, let's split up... Oh, I came out in such a hurry that I forgot to bring paper and pen. Do you have any here? I'm afraid I'll forget it after listening, so it's safer to write it down."

Before Liu Suqin could say anything, Li Hong, who had been eavesdropping nearby, had already sprinted back to her workstation, found an unused notebook and pen, and stuffed them into Li Liang's arms. "Brother Liang, you should go to that street office right now. It's most important to confirm it with your own eyes. Suqin, you should also hurry back and call for help. Oh, why are you taking so long? I'm worried about you two."

Li Hong thought that if she had encountered such a good thing, she would have rushed to the scene without thinking twice. However, these two people were still discussing a lot of things at the door. It was really true that the emperor was not anxious, but the eunuchs were.

Under her frantic urging, Li Liang rode away in a hurry on his motorcycle, but Liu Suqin still went back to her desk slowly to pack her bag and keys. Then, facing her friend's disappointed look, she drove away briskly.

They first went home to pull Lin Nanjiang out of bed, and then the couple went to Lin Quansheng's house and knocked on the door.

The weather was nice today, neither too hot nor too cold. Li Xiaoqing woke up from her nap and went to the park with her mother, pushing the child. Lin Quansheng was resting at home alone. The two waited outside for two minutes before they saw Lin Quansheng, with his messy hair, opening the door. Liu Suqin briefly explained the situation and suggested, "Since it's just the three of us, why don't we just take your motorcycle over? It's probably going to be hard to park if we drive, and the neighborhood office will definitely be packed."

Her tone was too relaxed and calm. Lin Quansheng was stunned for two seconds before his brain began to absorb the information. His mouth gradually opened into an egg. "What? The demolition notice is out? How can you be so calm? Go to the site and read the notice. No, wait, I need to go back to get the keys and change clothes..."

He had just gotten up from the bed, still wearing an old man's shirt that had been washed and deformed. It would be inconvenient to go out and see people in this state. Lin Quansheng reacted and hurried back to the bedroom to change clothes.

Finally, he wasn't the only one at a loss anymore. Lin Nanjiang's mouth, which he had been suppressing with great effort, finally stretched to a grin, and he jokingly said, "You'd better wash your face again and calm down."

Lin Quansheng washed his face with cold water, but he didn't calm down much. As soon as he went out, he handed over the car keys and said, "Who will ride the bike later? My hands are still shaking."

Liu Suqin thought to herself that her hands didn’t shake, but if she dared to ride, would they dare to sit?

It seems that Lin Quansheng was as happy as Li Liang, but fortunately Lin Nanjiang was not infected by them.

After attending Chen Jiaming's wedding that day, Liu Suqin and Lin Nanjiang closed the door and analyzed the current situation. They concluded that whether the house was demolished or not would not have much impact on their lives. If it could be demolished, it would be icing on the cake, just like winning the lottery with good luck. If it couldn't be demolished, it wouldn't be a big loss either. They could still eat and drink as usual, and it wouldn't affect their taking the children out for vacation during the winter and summer vacations. In short, they should keep a normal attitude.

Lin Nanjiang kept his wife's advice in mind. Even though he was surprised, he did not lose his composure. He took his wife and good brother and rode his bike steadily to the street office.

Lin Quansheng had lived here for two years and had dealt with the street office before, but this was Lin Nanjiang's first time here. He didn't know the exact location at first, but when he turned into the street from a distance, he saw a place crowded with people, and there was still a steady stream of people pouring in. He knew it was there without asking.

After finding a spot to park, they could hear people around them excitedly discussing the topic of demolition. They felt more at ease now. Influenced by the mood at the scene, the three of them excitedly squeezed into the most crowded place. They happened to meet the eyes of Li Liang who was squeezing out. He waved to them from a distance and told them not to waste their time.

After a while, Li Liang wiped his sweat and came up to the three people. "The staff are not inside. There is a notice on the wall confirming the demolition. The details will be known after the meeting here next Monday."

"That's it?" Liu Suqin and the others who hurried over were all disappointed that their pants had been taken off but there was no follow-up.

Li Liang consoled him, "Now that the official document has been issued, everything is set in stone. We'll just have to wait patiently for the mobilization meeting next Monday. It's only a few days away."

Lin Nanjiang and Lin Quansheng rubbed their hands together and asked in a low voice, "Don't we just have to do nothing and wait for the meeting?"

They have often heard Uncle Chen and Aunt Zhang talk about the stories of the demolition back then, such as building houses overnight, and if that didn't work, putting up a tin shed could get more compensation, and there were also stories about people frantically adding names to the household registration book, and dragging the girl to get a marriage certificate just two days after a blind date, etc. They were so excited to hear them, and now they have also caught up with such a good thing, they are ready to work hard.

"You don't have to do anything." After pouring cold water on them, Li Liang pulled them to a quiet corner and patiently explained, "House demolition in the city is different from that in the countryside. Rural homesteads belong to the entire family, and anyone whose name is on the household registration will receive compensation, commonly known as a head fee. Also, rural houses are self-built, so naturally they can add on if they want. But how can we add on to our buildings?"

Liu Suqin was dumbfounded. "There's not even any head money? What can we get?"

"I just asked my friends at the subdistrict office. They know more. They said the demolition this time is quite extensive. The compensation mainly consists of two parts. One part is resettlement housing. It depends on the specific compensation plan given on Monday. Some are 100% to 100% of the price, some are 100% to 150% of the price, or even 100% to 150% of the price. For example, if it's 100% to 150% of the price, then my 70-square-meter house can be replaced by a new house worth 105 square meters. There is also a cash compensation based on the house price they assessed, multiplied by our actual area."

Liu Suqin grasped the key point, "Is this assessment based on the price of commercial properties?"

"Yes, if we take commercial buildings and second-hand houses into account, on average, the housing prices in our area may be as high as 3,000 to 4,000 yuan per square meter. If we calculate it at 3,000 yuan per square meter, then my family will have 210,000 yuan in cash." The old and dilapidated house that was bought for tens of thousands of yuan can now be demolished to get several times more in cash and a new house with a larger area. What else do we need?

The more Li Liang thought about it, the happier he became. Lin Quansheng slapped his thigh and asked excitedly, "Is the new house we're giving you as compensation also a residential building?"

"Yes." Li Liang not only gave an affirmative answer, but also told Liu Suqin and Lin Nanjiang another piece of good news, "I squeezed in to read the notice. According to the marked area, the small shop you bought on the street corner two years ago is also included?"

"Really?" Liu Suqin and Lin Nanjiang were overjoyed. "Then will the shop be compensated the same way?"

"It's pretty much the same, but if the shops are demolished, the compensation you get will also be shops or office buildings."

Next, Li Liang reminded everyone of the things to pay attention to when attending the meeting on Monday, then hurriedly said goodbye and went back to share the good news with his family.

Liu Suqin and the others were almost there. They could resist calling their families back home, but they couldn't stand it at all for their relatives and friends who lived under the same roof.

In the next few days, the two families discussed the demolition plan after dinner, praying that the organizer would be generous, preferably with a two-for-one or three-for-one compensation. After waiting day and night, Monday finally arrived.

During this period, Liu Suqin and others took advantage of the time when there were not many people watching in front of the bulletin board to come and see the specific notice with their own eyes. It detailed that the meeting would be held at 8:30 in the morning. Due to the limited space in the street office, each family only needed to send one representative.

But both couples Liu Suqin and Lin Nanjiang and Lin Quansheng and Li Xiaoqing went out at the same time.

If they weren't afraid of causing them trouble, Qian Juxiang and the others would also like to go and watch.

The four of them set off in an orderly manner before seven o'clock. The street office was as crowded as usual, and they still saw Li Liang and Amin in the crowd.

They smiled at each other, and after getting out of the car and approaching, Liu Suqin realized that Li Liang's family was even more impressive. They had even brought their children with them. She couldn't help but ask, "Why is Zai Zai here too?"

Li Liang explained, "My cousin from my uncle's family is getting married, and my mom went back home to attend the wedding banquet. She hasn't been back yet. Lately, Amin and I have been taking him to school when we can, but we left early today, and the kindergarten hasn't opened yet, so we just brought him here with us."

They moved to a bigger house last year, and Li's mother kept her promise and packed her bags to come and take care of her grandson.

It is a bit regrettable that neither Li Liang nor Afeng succeeded in becoming their neighbors. Of course, they all lived not far away. Li Liang's new home could get to Lin Nanjiang Noodle Shop in just five minutes by taking a shortcut through the alley.

So after they moved in, their child also transferred to Fangfang's kindergarten.

Liu Suqin asked at the time, "If that's the case, why don't you send Zai Zai to my house? When it's time for school, my parents can just take them to kindergarten together."

Amin smiled and said, "It's just kindergarten. It's no big deal to take a day or two off. Zaizai wanted to come with us, so we brought him along."

Li Xiaoqing also came over and asked, "Is your child about to start elementary school?"

Amin shook his head gently, "No, we have to wait another year."

Everyone chatted about their children and work, and the process of waiting for the meeting to begin became relaxed. When the staff arranged the venue and notified representatives from each company to enter in an orderly manner, Liu Suqin and Lin Nanjiang walked in side by side.

The property certificate was in Liu Suqin's name. Lin Nanjiang was originally going to wait outside with Li Xiaoqing and Ahui for the result, but Liu Suqin reminded him that their family had two houses, which was equivalent to two quotas, so the couple went in together for the meeting.

The meeting lasted two hours, and there wasn't much to say, but it was somewhat difficult for the residents to fully understand the compensation plan.

However, Liu Suqin and the others understood it immediately after having Li Liang's detailed explanation. The result was quite surprising. Although the compensation for the house was only 1.3 times, the official assessed house price was 3,800 yuan per square meter. The cash they received was tens of thousands more than they expected!

In addition, there is also compensation that Li Liang has not found out. It is said that as long as the first batch of signatures are confirmed, there will be a signing bonus of 10,000 yuan. Liu Suqin will get a house and a shop, which is 20,000 yuan.

In addition, there is a transitional resettlement fee of one thousand yuan per month, which will be paid two months after the new house is delivered. That is to say, no matter how fast they act, they can at least receive the resettlement fee for about one year.

Liu Suqin happily calculated the bill and waited for the demolition office to come and measure the house.
