Quack quack
Because so many people came, the road leading to the ancestral hall was blocked. As expected, the police station arranged people to come over, and those who were running around directing the movement of the cars were all young people from the village.
One by one, they took off their vests, beach pants and slippers, and put on small suits and shiny leather shoes. Every strand of their hair was meticulously groomed. These people are really not afraid of being targeted.
Chen Jin looked down at himself. Apart from his eye-catching hairstyle, there was nothing special about him.
It wasn't that she had foresight, but she was too excited last night and slept late, so she got up late in the morning. She hurried to the rose garden to pick up her uncle and others and didn't have time to dress up. Otherwise, she would be the most beautiful girl in Qiaodong Village today!
My uncle and his family got out of the car and walked to the ancestral hall.
Chen Jin had to follow the car in front and move slowly. He couldn't park the car outside because there was no open space next to the path and there was a main road outside. And no one was parked outside, so she might as well drive over there. She also had to be careful that someone might get red-eye and scratch her car.
I kept thinking about how much money she could get as compensation for the land acquisition. I wondered if it was enough for her to splurge on a luxury car...
She was actually thinking about Teacher Shen's royal blue car. She was really getting carried away.
She had previously said she wanted to buy a house in Shenzhen, but now she is becoming more and more hesitant. Professor Kong, who teaches economics, suggested that she buy one in Beijing and transfer her household registration there at the same time.
You can consider buying a house in Beijing, but it is impossible to move your household registration. She finally got her household registration transferred to Qiaoxi Village and is waiting for follow-up efforts.
There was a sudden knock on the car window. Chen Jin looked over and saw it was her grandfather and her three uncles.
Why are they here too?
"Our village is expropriating land, what are you doing here?"
"Come and see the fun." Old Man Liu looked at the back seat and saw no one. "You came back alone? Your uncles won't come?"
"Here it comes, go over there." Chen Jin saw that the car in front finally started moving, and the car behind was honking its horn to urge her forward. Chen Jin hurriedly told Old Liu and the others not to get close to the car. Looking back, I saw that the person driving behind was Chen Wensong.
Wow! This person is here too, it will be interesting later.
There were two rows of cars parked in the open space in front of the ancestral hall. Chen Jin took a look and found that there were fewer luxury cars than when he returned from the Chinese New Year, but there were still as many people. Chen Wenxing's luxury car worth 400,000 yuan disappeared.
Just as Chen Jin got off the car, he heard Chen Wensong ask Chen Wenxing, "Did you change your car? Why are you so low-key?" Chen Jin saw that Chen Wenxing's face instantly turned ugly, and he ignored Chen Wensong and walked towards the ancestral hall. Can someone who loves to show off usually change his luxury car for no reason? Chen Wensong's words were heart-wrenching.
Chen Jin was so happy that he laughed out loud.
The open space in front of the ancestral hall was very lively, and the tables and chairs that had originally been stored in the small warehouse next to the ancestral hall were moved out and placed around. The rainproof cloth bought during the Qingming Festival last time was also pulled out to build a large awning for shade, and everyone was sitting with their legs crossed and chatting. I don’t know who went to buy drinks and mineral water, but it made it seem like they were going to set up a banquet in the village.
Chen Jin glanced around and saw her eldest uncle, third uncle, fifth uncle Chen, the old branch secretary, and Chen Wensong all talking together. Including her, their families were the ones who paid the most for this land acquisition, and the land they were acquiring was the Taolin land. My aunt and third aunt were sitting at the same table with Aunt Zhou. Chen Jin wanted to join them in chatting, but was called over by my uncle.
There is nothing else to say. They all unanimously agree to "quit while they are ahead". As long as the compensation is reasonable, they will sign and take the money quickly and not do anything weird. After all, they are the only families in the village who can get land acquisition compensation. Other households are involved in the relocation of ancestral graves, and the compensation cannot be much. They are also afraid of being targeted by other people in the village. Not to mention, there are a lot of messy people outside watching.
The old branch secretary took a special look at Chen Wensong.
His eldest son used to seem reliable. Since the demolition of his house last year, everything else has been fine except that he has been confused again and again when it comes to women. He didn't dare to count on him anymore.
After a few people here finished discussing, the old branch secretary pulled Chen Wensong aside to talk. It seemed that he was scolding his son, but it was not known whether Chen Wensong could listen to him.
Chen Jin was curious, "Uncle Wen Shi from the old branch secretary's family isn't coming back?"
This guy is really patient. When the village was demolished last year, Chen Wenshi was like an invisible man, while Chen Wensong was jumping up and down and making a fuss. He came back, signed the documents, and left again. It was so quiet that one could hardly remember.
"He has his own factory in the suburbs and is too lazy to come back." The third uncle lowered his voice and said, "The old branch secretary wants to live with Chen Wenshi in his old age, and he said that the compensation money will not be divided for the time being. Just now, Chen Wensong said that after the compensation money comes, he wants to speed up the construction and also wants to buy a piece of land."
"He arranged it well himself. The old branch secretary ignored him."
The uncle said, "There is quite a lot of land available now. You can buy it if you want, but you can only make a small profit after the house is built. If you want, you can buy it first and put it aside. It won't be too late to build a house later if the policy changes."
"Uncle, do you also think that the current regulation is temporary?" Chen Jin stroked his chin, thinking. Professor Kong also said that since we are going to develop a market economy, it is inevitable that housing prices will rise. However, Professor Kong also told her to look at the real economy, where opportunities and challenges coexist. But at a time when policies are favorable, if she chooses the right industry, then she will be like the pig on the wind - no matter how dumb she is, she can still ride the wind and fly.
"It's only a matter of time. When welfare housing distribution is cancelled, how many people will be waiting to buy a house? In short, I am optimistic about the real estate industry."
Chen Jin thought about it and put it aside. He couldn't figure it out for the time being anyway, so he might as well go back and think about it slowly. The most important thing today was to talk quickly, sign the contract, get the money and leave!
"I think you can go to night school when you have time to learn more about economics. The teachers in your school are more informed, so it won't hurt to go and listen to them."
Chen Jin thought about going to class, so he waved his hand and said, "I'll go when I have time."
But do you really have to go to class every day? No, she couldn't accept it. She had finally finished school and now she had to continue studying. The thought of it made her tired.
Uncle Chen Wu was asking his third uncle about opening a store in Xiu Li Community. From the sound of it, Uncle Chen Wu also wanted to buy a shop and open a store in Xiu Li Community. However, if you go to buy it now, you may not be able to buy it unless someone wants to transfer it.
Uncle Chen's family is quite similar to his third uncle's family. They both held on to their money tightly after the demolition. Apart from buying houses, they didn't make any other big purchases. They are so honest and low-key that they don't look like people with millions of dollars in assets. Chen Kexin, the daughter of Uncle Chen Wu, runs her own photography shop. Although photography equipment is not cheap, the cost of opening a shop is about the same as buying an ordinary car.
Their goal is also very clear: although they don’t have the ability to make a fortune, making a small fortune is enough.
The difference is that my third uncle can still make money with the help of my eldest uncle. Uncle Chen's family is really low-key and cautious.
After saying this, Chen Jin couldn't wait to go to Aunt Zhou's table, grabbed a handful of roasted melon seeds on the table and started crunching them.
The person who brought the melon seeds is so thoughtful. At a time like this, he should have brought some roasted melon seeds and peanuts. Just listening to others talk is not exciting enough, but you don’t have anything good to gossip about, so eat something to show that your mouth is not idle, so you can fit in with the group.
“Tsk tsk tsk…”
“Hehehe…”
“Ga ga ga…”
Chen Jin is an excellent listener. No matter what others say, she can always give some feedback and then encourage others to continue speaking with her eyes. My eldest aunt and third aunt who were sitting next to her were helpless. They really didn't understand why she loved to get involved in gossip so much.
Originally, the sky was blue, the wind was cool, the roasted melon seeds were fragrant, the soda chilled in the refrigerator was sweet, and everything in the world was cooperating with her good mood.
But here comes a nasty guy.
Just after telling a piece of gossip, Grandma Chen San suddenly appeared from the side and smiled at Chen Jin, scaring Chen Jin so much that he was speechless and couldn't even shout. The soda in his hand almost splashed in the face of Aunt Zhou who was sitting opposite him.
God had no idea how scary it would be to have a sarcastic old lady's face suddenly appear in front of her... In broad daylight, she almost thought she saw the old ghost on TV.
When Aunt Zhou saw Grandma Chen San coming over, she rolled her eyes and sneered without any concealment.
But Grandma Chen San acted as if she didn't see Aunt Zhou. She took Chen Jin's hand and said, "Third sister, my mother's nephew has a son who is also a teacher. He is 27 years old, just the right age for you. My nephew is handsome, and his parents are both teachers. I said I wanted to introduce him to you..."
Chen Jin pulled his hand back directly, "Don't think about it. I don't need you to introduce someone to me."
She didn't believe what Mrs. Chen said at all.
"Hey, go and have a look first. My nephew is so qualified that others are chasing after him outside. But we are from the same village. I have watched you grow up and know you well. I will introduce you to someone new. I will arrange it this weekend..."
"In the end, the only advantage is that you have good conditions. Tell me what exactly are your good conditions. In fact, it's that you have no money, no education, and no ability, right? I have a lot of ideas in my head, but you have to live a hard life? What level are you? Are you worthy of dating me?"
"Alright, alright, stop bragging. Even if it's a toad imported from the United States, it's still a toad after all." Chen Jin waved his hand and said, "Don't make any plans. Go to the coffin shop more often and choose a good house for yourself. I'm busy. Go wherever you want. Your son praises you, but I won't spoil you."
Grandma Chen San widened her eyes. She didn’t expect that Chen Jin would actually ask her to choose a coffin? !
He immediately pulled up his sleeves to grab Chen Jin, "You..."
Chen Jin didn't even need to do anything. Aunt Zhou grabbed the man from behind, grabbed the coat she had taken off and stuffed it into Chen Sanpo's mouth, then dragged her to the table of Chen Sangong and Chen Wenxing. "You guys want to take advantage of the things in Sanmei's hands, right? And you asked an old lady to introduce people to dates? What's going on? Have you spent all your money and are eyeing other people's money?"
Mrs. Chen was still struggling, and Mr. Chen's face turned red from Aunt Zhou's questioning. He yelled at Mrs. Chen to shut up and asked Aunt Zhou to let her go. Ever since they broke off their relationship, the old couple could no longer put on airs in front of Aunt Zhou.
Mr. Chen San pulled Mrs. Chen San, who was still looking for Chen Jin to settle the score, out.
Chen Wenxing felt embarrassed, and many people in the village looked at him with meaningful eyes. I almost cursed my own mother in my heart. Why did she choose this time to ask Chen Jin to introduce her to a date? ! At this time, people are waiting for the demolition payment, but you still go up to introduce people to potential partners, fearing that others can't see what your intention is?
But this Chen Jin is also a disgrace to college students. He doesn’t even know how to respect the elderly and his words are so rude.
He wanted to use his status as an elder to preach a few words but it was useless. As soon as the commotion started, Chen Jin's two uncles came over and asked what was going on.
Chen Jin stood up, put his hands on his waist and said loudly: "It's okay, these are just flies that come here to smell the scent. If you dare to pretend to be kind and introduce me to someone, I will slap them one by one. You want to come to my house and make the whole family die? In the end, who knows whose family will be the last one to die!"
"Do you think you can take over my family's money and house by finding a man? You're better off dreaming! It's okay if you introduce me to a date. I'll make him the richest man in Southern Province first."
Then Chen Jin asked, "Uncle San, did we bring paper money or something? I'll have to say a few more words when we pay respects to our ancestors. If you want to talk about my family's money, let the ancestors talk to them and see who is stubborn."
"If it doesn't work, I will go to worship Mazu some other day. I will go to Xichan Temple, Yongquan Temple, and Jinshan Temple to worship."
It really made her so angry that she became feudal and superstitious.
Chen Jin stood up and started talking a lot, without naming anyone, but several people turned their faces away with unnatural expressions. It seems that Chen Jin doesn't seem like he would take the bait.
The people from Qiaoxi Village who came over after seeing the area of the land acquisition circle said: Those who are causing trouble are the ones causing trouble, and they are so loud even in their own village.
The village chief Chen Guangman who came over later and the developer representative who came over to discuss compensation: "......"
Chen Guangman introduced: "This is Chen Jin. The child is not like this usually. The largest peach forest is hers."
The developer representative adjusted his glasses, took a deep breath, and said with a smile: "Young people sometimes have a bad temper. If you have any needs, we can talk about it, isn't that right, Village Chief Chen?"
"Oh, yes, yes, we can definitely have a good talk. Chen Jin is a college student and a university teacher. He is a reasonable kid."
"That's good." Just don't bang the table or shout when discussing compensation later. The girl's land is so large, and if she can't make the deal, it will be difficult for them to push their work down.
After gathering several major land acquisition compensation recipients to discuss the matter in the emptied small warehouse and explaining the compensation conditions, they asked if they had any other needs.
Chen Jin was the only one who raised his hand seriously, and the developer representative became concerned.
"Please give me a pen. I forgot to bring one."
