Too many
The developer representative secretly breathed a sigh of relief, handed the black pen at hand to Chen Jin, and took the opportunity to carefully look at the expression on Chen Jin's face at this moment.
Just now when he explained the compensation standards and the amount of compensation given to them, everyone else was obviously surprised and excited to the point of their eyes sparkling. The only three people sitting next to each other, a couple in their fifties and Chen Jin, the biggest recipient of the land acquisition compensation who was specially introduced by Village Chief Chen, were very indifferent, as if they didn't care about the money.
During the early preparations for the negotiations, they had met other people besides Chen Jin, and also learned a lot of information about these households from the village chief. Chen Jin's personal information looked simple, and they were full of confidence, until they saw Chen Jin's aggressive attitude of swearing with his hands on his hips just before the negotiation...
Well, an orphan girl received so much compensation when her village was demolished last year, but she was able to keep the money well. How could she be a soft persimmon that is easily bullied?
Chen Jin was seen spinning the pen with her fingers flying. He watched for a while and felt that even if the pen wasn't spinning dizzy, he was about to be spinning dizzy.
The small warehouse was silent, with only the rustling sound of papers turning.
At this moment, Chen Jin could hear the earth shaking, the sky collapsing, thunder and lightning in his ears... He stared at the 5.3 million written in pencil on the total amount of the contract. He blinked and continued to stare. It was 5.3 million. He was not sure. He looked again. It was still 5.3 million!
She was just listening to the person on the other side reading out various compensation items while quickly calculating in her mind:
Land compensation, young crop compensation, attachment compensation, resettlement subsidy... The compensation received will be different depending on the number of years the fruit trees have been planted. Most of the peach trees on her family's land were planted two years ago, and the rest were planted some time ago.
Until the end, they helped to calculate it directly, and figured out that her family's land, which was nearly thirteen acres of forest land, had a total compensation of 5.3 million!
Although my uncle had mentioned in advance that the compensation given by the developer when expropriating the land would be much more than that given by the government, she didn't expect it to be so much!
Oh my God! She was stunned by what she heard just now, and was so excited that she wanted to do something, but her uncle and aunt next to her were too indifferent, and Chen Jin was embarrassed to show too much excitement, so when people asked her if she needed anything else, she raised her hand and asked for a pen.
If she didn't move her right hand a few times, it would shake so badly that she wouldn't be able to sign.
After about ten minutes of silence, Chen Jin read the contract again from beginning to end, word by word, and found no problem! I want to sign my name and put my red fingerprints on it now!
Look left, look right, why is no one talking?
Or do they have other ideas? Didn’t you say that you should stop while you’re ahead and sign the contract to get the money?
After waiting for a few more minutes, Chen Jin gradually calmed down. I am not in a hurry just like others. Maybe there will be a surprise.
Oh, surprise no.
My uncle cleared his throat and said, "I have no objection. Write down the amount and sign it."
My third uncle also agreed with the compensation plan.
The developer's representative breathed a sigh of relief again. The combined land of these two people was almost the same as Chen Jin's, thus solving two major problems. The next second, after hearing Chen Jin nodding in agreement, my body instantly relaxed and I was able to get through most of it.
Everyone looked at the old branch secretary and Uncle Chen Wu. Chen Jin saw that the old branch secretary was a little hesitant. Uncle Chen Wu was about to speak, but when he saw that the old branch secretary didn't say anything, he quickly shut his mouth.
The old branch secretary wanted to ask how much compensation other families had received, but this was considered private, so people kept them away. The contract each person receives is different, and the amount of compensation is different. Although the compensation standard has just been mentioned and he can make a rough estimate, he still wants to know how much money other families have received.
Especially Chen Jin.
The old branch secretary had a complicated look on his face. Chen Jin's land was the largest, and she and her two uncles had planted the fruit trees two years ago. With more years of experience, the compensation they would definitely get would be more.
If you want to ask, they may not tell you.
Chen Jin waited patiently. Finally, the old branch secretary looked up at the three families who had agreed to sign, then lowered his eyes and thought for a long time, then said, "Then let our family sign as well."
Uncle Chen immediately followed and said he agreed.
"Okay, let's sign now." As if afraid that they would go back on their word, the developer's representative wrote the specific amount on the contract with a black pen, then passed it back to them, watching them fill in the information one by one, and then sign and put their fingerprints on it.
Chen Jin's mind was filled with the words "get rich overnight", and in her excitement, she almost wrote the word "rich woman" instead.
Seeing how impatient people were, the old branch secretary hesitated for a moment, but when he looked around, he saw Chen Jin and her two uncles were already signing quickly. Putting aside other thoughts, he also picked up the pen.
When walking out of the small warehouse, Chen Jin took a deep breath, and in his heart, a little man stood with his hands on his hips and laughed up to the sky: Getting rich suddenly makes people happy!
Old Liu rushed over and asked, "How much did you lose?"
"That's all. Not much." Chen Jin avoided other people's inquiring eyes. She would not tell anyone the amount of compensation she received. Even if others guessed it, she would never admit it even if she died.
"How much is that? It should be a lot, right?" Uncle Liu also squeezed over.
He was really jealous. He came here this morning to see the scope of the land acquisition circle. When the news came out that the land west of Qiaodong Village was to be acquired, he knew that Chen Jin had planted fruit trees there, but he didn't know that the land in Chen Jin's hands was so large! Most of the fruit trees were planted two years ago!
I heard that the compensation given by the real estate agency for expropriation is much higher and the conditions can be negotiated. Chen Jin must have received a lot of money!
Chen Jin kept a low profile at this time, and said vaguely: "It's not much. If you don't believe me, go ask other people. Why do you ask me? Am I easy to bully?"
"Let's go, there's a meeting in the village."
The uncle and his family also came out, glanced at the Liu family, and turned around and told Chen Jin without hesitation: "The compensation is not much, you should hold on to the money. When someone asks you to borrow money, be more cautious. Some money lent out is like throwing meat buns at dogs."
"Okay, stop standing there and go to the ancestral hall for the meeting."
Many people in the village came over to ask how much compensation was paid. Chen Jin looked at the old branch secretary and Uncle Chen Wu, and they both didn't say much. You see, everyone keeps silent after receiving the money.
Even when Chen Wensong went to the old branch secretary to show his courtesy and asked how much money he had lost in compensation, the old branch secretary looked annoyed and directly gave him "about one million".
Chen Jin estimated in his mind that the old branch secretary was giving him a 50% discount on the price.
With the old branch secretary's standard in mind, everyone estimated that Chen Jin should be able to get more than two million.
But compared with last year's demolition compensation, the more than two million does not seem so eye-catching. Of course, this is not a small amount!
Think about it, the person who received more than two million in compensation was Chen Jin! She should have received six or seven million in compensation last year, right? ! With this year's, he immediately joins the ranks of multi-millionaires.
After calculating Chen Jin's worth, everyone suddenly understood what Chen Jin had said to Chen Sanpo this morning.
What you said makes a lot of sense. He has money, a house and is a university professor. He should have no problem with food and clothing for the rest of his life. There is really no need for him to just find someone with average conditions.
Aunt Zhou said in a loud voice, "To be honest, even if Third Sister doesn't look for a man, what can she do? She has so many property certificates, and she doesn't need a marriage certificate. If she really wants to find a man... well, if she makes a list of conditions, the queue will stretch from the entrance of Qiaodong Village in Nancheng District to the gate of Nanjing University in Beicheng District."
Chen Wenzhen's wife Zhang Meixian pursed her lips and whispered, "How can that be? Third sister is a girl, she still needs to find a partner and get married..."
Aunt Zhou glanced over coldly and said, "Don't force me to slap you here."
"I've seen people with water in their brains, but I've never seen people with a cerebellum wrapped around their waists. The zombies on TV are not as feudal as you." Aunt Zhou said heavily, "Men can find a few girls outside, so why can't women find one? If you're not married, you can find as many girls as you want. It's not like you can't afford to support them."
After hearing this, everyone silently looked at Chen Wenming behind Aunt Zhou. Chen Wenming calmly met those scrutinizing gazes: What's wrong? Didn’t you hear what my wife said, you’re not married? !
Zhang Meixian walked away embarrassedly. She really couldn't afford to offend Aunt Zhou.
Chen Jin staggered over to Aunt Zhou and asked, "What were you talking about just now?"
"I say you don't have to hang yourself on a tree to find a man to marry. If you want to find a man, you can support him. You can support as many men as you want."
Chen Jin let out a long "ah", scratched his head, and muttered quietly: "Aren't those a bit too many?"
Aunt Zhou was speechless for a moment, she had no experience.
The village chief took out an iron basin and knocked it several times, then called the villagers to a meeting. The people who had come from Qiaoxi Village to watch the fun had not left yet. Seeing that there was nothing exciting to see in Qiaodong Village, they were thinking of going home. Suddenly, someone went to ask the developer's delegation for news, and then everyone swarmed over again.
The people from Qiaodong Village sat down, but couldn't help but stand up, wanting to see what news they were looking for.
"I want to ask about the demolition of Qiaoxi Village."
"Do you think Qiaoxi Village can really catch up with the demolition?"
"I'm not a developer, how would I know? But I think the demolition of Qiaoxi Village is a possibility, it's just a matter of time. See, Chen Wenqiang is really cunning, he must have thought that Qiaoxi Village would be demolished in the future, so he transferred Sanmei's household registration to Qiaoxi Village last year. Do you know how much residential land Sanmei has in Qiaoxi Village? She used all the 400 square meters of residential land to build buildings! When it's time to demolish, think about it, five buildings, how much money can you get from that?"
It’s no wonder that Mrs. Chen San would set her sights on Chen Jin and want to introduce Chen Jin to her relatives. Seriously speaking, if possible, who wouldn’t want to introduce Chen Jin to their relatives? Other people's families may have some disputes, but Chen Jin's family has none at all. She is the only one in her family, and the money is in her hands. She can spend it however she wants.
This is a hot commodity, a golden doll.
"All of it is hers? I heard that only a small part of it is hers, and Chen Wenqiang and his three brothers are also involved?"
"Tsk, how could I not know since I went to Qiaoxi Village to inquire about it myself? The residential land is all in the name of the third sister. The largest building is hers, and the remaining four buildings are divided among Chen Wenqiang and his siblings. After the demolition, Chen Wenqiang and his siblings only got the money from those buildings. The bulk of the money still belongs to the third sister, right?"
"That's right... Hey, Third Sister is 23 this year, right?"
Chen Jin suddenly popped his head out from behind them and said quietly, "I'll be twenty-two next month."
What she hated most was when adults calculated her age in Chinese lunar calendar and added age to her age for no reason.
Chen Jin's sudden appearance startled the person who was speaking. When she turned around and saw it was her, she felt a little embarrassed. She had just finished talking about someone else's secrets when she was caught by Chen Jin.
Chen Jin pulled a stool over and sat down behind the two uncles, with his arms resting on the backs of their chairs. "Uncle Wendong, Uncle Wenchang, you guys don't want to introduce me to someone, do you?"
"...No, nowadays young people don't like to be introduced by their elders. They all advocate free love. Third sister, it should be easy for you to find a partner in school, right?"
"I thought someone was going to introduce me to a partner." Chen Jin didn't say whether it was difficult to find a partner at school. Of course it was difficult. Every day at school, she was either hanging out with people in the office or visiting her students.
Chen Jin looked at the frowning village chief in front of him and quickly sat up straight. The village chief must be angry. He just knocked on the iron basin and told us to gather, but some people still went to join in the fun, delaying the village's work.
When someone noticed something was wrong and ran back quietly, after a while, the village chief said, "Are all the people here? Let's have a meeting when everyone is here."
"Next time, don't ask why your ancestors didn't bless you to get rich, and why they didn't even bother you with the big issue of moving the ancestral graves..."
Chen Jin quickly pursed his lips to hold back his laughter. The village chief's words were quite interesting.
The subsequent meetings were also quick, because there was nothing for everyone to discuss this time, so they just called people together to set a time for the weekend, and every household had to free up someone to help.
There is no cemetery in the village. In fact, it is each family's business. Once the compensation is in place, each family can take care of their own business. But in the past, matters of this kind were handled by one family and helped by all other families, so the village chief simply set a time and everyone moved together at that time.
"Don't think too much about it. I asked someone to calculate it. Next week, no matter what your fate is, it will be suitable for moving the grave."
Chen Jin almost laughed out loud again, this fortune-telling has two sides...
Normally, I have to look at the birth dates of my family members and calculate them, but when it comes to the critical moment, it’s: no need to calculate, they are all suitable!
Speaking of the ancestral hall in the village, the village chief actually negotiated and reserved the vacant land for the ancestral hall. We need to rebuild the ancestral hall into a three-courtyard structure in the same style as the old one. The village chief said that after the grave relocation is completed, they can hold a vote and let each household contribute money, and the larger households can donate money.
Everyone looked at the few families who received land acquisition compensation, especially Chen Jin. Everyone knew that Chen Jin must have received a lot.
When it comes to donating money, if you have the spare money, you can donate as much as you want. There is no reason to force others to donate. Chen Jin plans to see how much the other big households in the village donate when the time comes.
Even though she has received a lot of money now, it adds up to a lot. But when the houses were demolished last year, Chen Wenzhen, Chen Wensong and their family were the biggest recipients of the demolition and received much more than she did.
Chen Jin pretended not to see those looks, but glanced at Liu Mantang, the village chief of Qiaoxi Village who was standing not far away, and thought to himself: Don't just watch, you should learn more, and refer to this as the procedure for future meetings. If you have something to say, just talk about it and then adjourn the meeting.
But she saw that Liu Mantang didn't seem to have taken the meeting seriously. He was stroking his chin, thinking, and no one knew what he was thinking about.
Once the meeting was over, everyone else had to sign a compensation agreement with the developer for the relocation of the graves. Chen Jin has just signed all of them, so there’s no need to go over there. The eldest uncle said he needed to go find the developer’s representative to ask some questions, so Chen Jin sat back in the pergola and had to wait for his eldest uncle to go back together.
The melon seeds made a crackling sound and I couldn't help but cross my legs and shake my calves.
I wonder if the president will be so shocked that he will stuff eggs in his mouth when she goes to see him this weekend.
She said she would go to him for business next time, to see how trustworthy she is.
As long as no one was paying attention to this side, Chen Jin couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, and he would suppress it by taking a deep breath, and then he couldn't help grinning when listening to others talking, even if other people's gossip was not interesting or funny at all.
The people from Qiaoxi Village got on their motorcycles and left one after another. Before leaving, Old Man Liu looked at Chen Jin hesitantly.
Before Chen Jin went in to negotiate and sign, he was thinking about finding Old Man Liu to ask about the follow-up of the land contracting out in Qiaoxi Village. After signing, my mind was wandering and I couldn't remember anything at all.
When she heard Old Man Liu tell her that he would go to the village the day after tomorrow, she almost wanted to say "I don't have time to go". Then he slapped his head and almost forgot about everything else, and said he would try his best to go.
"It might be officially signed the day after tomorrow. What do you mean by try your best? You must go." Old man Liu wanted to sigh when he saw Chen Jin like this. Why was the land expropriated in Qiaodong Village? ! Demolition and land expropriation happened every time, and every time it happened to Chen Jin. His fortune is really unmatched.
But what's the use of this? It has nothing to do with our family, so we can’t get any advantage!
"I see." Chen Jin sighed. She had only worked for two days since returning from the National Day holiday. She asked for leave today and will ask for leave again on Friday. This week, she has two days off... It's like she didn't go to work.
Old man Liu was walking out with his three sons. When he was about to get on his eldest son's motorcycle, he looked back at the ancestral hall in Qiaodong Village and wondered: Is this a feng shui problem?
Not only was he thinking about it, Liu Mantang also went to find Chen Guangman and pulled him aside mysteriously, "Who did you ask to calculate the relocation of the ancestral hall in your village? Do you have any contact information? Give me one."
Chen Guangman looked at the developer representative not far away and asked, "Is your village also about to have good news?"
“…Prepare in advance.”
