Chapter 103 Discussing the Relocation of Graves
After everyone was seated, at Jiang Wenlin's prompting, Jiang Wenhua carefully explained the village's existing assets.
Upon hearing the enormous sum of money, not to mention the rest of Jiangcun, they were stunned.
Even An Songyu felt a moment of attraction.
No wonder there were so many voices in the village calling for the land to be relocated directly.
Looking at everyone's expressions, Jiang Wenlin coughed lightly before continuing, "I am aware of the various thoughts in the village regarding this funding."
"Before today, I had thought about many things."
"I was also thinking, since we don't even know if Jiangcun will still exist in the future, what's the point of us holding onto this money?"
"No matter how hard we try to guard this money, it will never end up in our pockets."
"To be honest, this time in Jiangcun, each family in our village committee received a lot of compensation."
"And none of us in the village committee feel the slightest bit ashamed about the compensation we've given."
"After all, the only difference between the land owned by the village committee members and each household is that they have contracted mulberry-fish ponds and orchards."
"Not to mention that there are still a lot of mulberry-fish ponds and orchards in the village's public accounts that have not been contracted out."
"The portion we contracted was also paid at the price that the village offered to everyone."
"Unfortunately, no matter how many times I appealed, the villagers were not interested."
"Now, it has become a public asset of these villages."
“This asset is definitely much larger than that of any individual in our village.”
“Even if it were to be divided up, based on the current population of the village, each person would receive a considerable amount.”
"But does Jiangcun really need this little bit of money right now?"
Upon hearing Jiang Wenlin's question, everyone in the village committee fell silent.
yes!
Nowadays, every family in Jiangcun has a huge sum of money in their pockets from demolition compensation.
Who would be short of such a large sum of money, which, when distributed among the people, would amount to no more than five figures?
"But will we lack anything in the future Jiang Village?" Jiang Wenlin asked, looking at everyone.
Having just received a huge sum of money, the crowd naturally wanted to nod without the slightest hesitation.
But let's not talk about far away, there's Lin Village!
They didn't even consider the first batch of people who were relocated. Even those who were relocated two years ago had lost their resettlement housing.
Now, I hear that everyone has disappeared and gone nowhere!
It only took about a year!
He was involved in everything – gambling, prostitution, and drugs.
Let alone the wealth gained through land expropriation and relocation.
No matter how much wealth he has, it won't be enough for him to squander!
Upon realizing this, everyone present felt a chill run down their spines.
I initially thought the village chief's words at the village meeting were too harsh, but now I no longer take them so lightly.
"So next, there is something that can benefit all the descendants of Jiangcun, and I would like to discuss it with everyone."
Following Jiang Wenlin's words, the village committee members distributed the documents that had been prepared in advance.
As An Songyu looked at the documents, he couldn't help but look at everyone in the village committee with new respect.
Regardless of whether these individuals were acting out of a sense of duty to the people as officials.
It was still out of a sense of responsibility to the people of the same clan.
What they are doing now can indeed be considered for the sake of future generations of Jiangcun.
It turned out that there were two copies of the document given to everyone.
The first proposal was to establish a logistics company in the name of the entire village.
The second one was a priority right that was negotiated with the government during the demolition process.
The land in Jiangcun is now mainly intended for the future construction of a logistics distribution center.
So, is this logistics distribution center under the unified management of the government?
They will still be managed by the individual companies, which will naturally lead to differences.
This priority right now seems to have been proposed specifically for their logistics company in Jiangcun.
Upon seeing these two documents, An Songyu couldn't help but admire the profound considerations of the village committee members.
However, An Songyu did not fill out the opinion solicitation form in her hand directly.
The village committee members clearly knew that this matter could not be decided in a short time.
An Jianxing explained once again the preparations needed to set up a village collective enterprise, especially the requirement for all villagers to invest, and then asked everyone to disperse.
Before leaving, Jiang Wenlin reminded everyone again: "This matter concerns the future of the entire village."
"We can discuss things, but I believe everyone knows what we should do, right?"
Hearing Jiang Wenlin's words, how could everyone not nod in agreement?
He then added, "I won't go into the dangers of pornography, gambling, and drugs."
"Having a fortune but not knowing how to manage it will ultimately be nothing but a pipe dream."
“Everyone here has been from my village for at least several decades.”
"I don't want you to end up old and destitute."
"After you go back, remember to properly discipline your children and grandchildren."
"Don't end up like Lin Village, where one person brought shame to the entire village."
They left the village committee with the flow of people.
An Songyu couldn't help but look back again and again.
"Ayu, what are you looking at?" Yuan Qionghua, whose complexion had already recovered, asked curiously.
An Songyu turned around and smiled, "I'm looking at the village committee!"
"Look at the village committee?" Yuan Qionghua turned around in confusion. What was so interesting about this ordinary rural building?
"I just feel like the village chief and the others are like patriarchs!" An Songyu said with a sigh.
Even family members, whether in the future or now, have never given me such earnest advice.
I was amused by An Songyu's exaggerated description.
Yuan Qionghua's bad mood from the past half day seemed to have disappeared somewhat with this burst of laughter.
After finally stopping laughing, she said, "That's the village committee! They are the village cadres, so naturally they are the heads of our entire village!"
An Songyu smiled, pursed her lips, and didn't reply.
There are many parents, but few are as responsible as this one.
This is when they are facing their own children and grandchildren, let alone just village officials.
Relocating graves is not a simple matter.
By the time An Songyu and his group arrived, the feng shui master they had invited had already taken a look.
The older generation of the An family is still alive.
Now we need to move the graves of our grandparents and other ancestors.
These graves were almost all to be moved along with those of other families.
In addition, they also had to help other families in the clan relocate their graves.
Just like the house of my great-uncle in the next room.
During the war, his son and grandson left their family to protect everyone.
Unfortunately, there was no chance to come back.
The only remaining grandson also grew up without the care of his parents.
Now, this little grandson even has a grandson.
However, the chaos in the early years of the People's Republic of China meant that he had no children by his side.
He also only had one grandson.
Nowadays, it's not because of the help from the other members of the An family that we are able to survive.
The cenotaphs in their area are even more difficult to deal with.
But looking at the old man's expression, An Songyu and his group really didn't know what to say.
For this relocation of graves, those who have recently passed away must first have their remains cleared out and sent to the crematorium for cremation.
And for our ancestors who lived so long ago, all they could take with them was a handful of soil from their graves.
As for cenotaphs like these, it's truly unknown what else remains!
