True or false
Old man Liu was almost speechless after Chen Jin's words "give her a share of the property". He thought: You are preparing for demolition and expropriation for the third time, and now you want to share my things?
I wanted to ask her to give me a share only if she changed her surname to Liu, but thinking of Chen Jin's bad temper, I didn't say it.
"I have some things to deal with at home, and I want to ask for your advice. If you don't have time to come, I can go to your place and find you."
"I'm busy, so don't come to see me. Your family members will come to my house and say that I encouraged you to mismanage the family's money. What should I say? Don't bring your family's affairs to my head. There is no shortage of lawyers and police in your village. You should file a lawsuit if you need to, and call the police if you need to. Why are you making a fuss all day long? Is it difficult to divide the property?"
Old Liu waited until she finished speaking before he said, "You should control your temper. I haven't even told you what the matter is, but you're already talking about all sorts of twisted theories. I won't keep you in suspense. The Liu family is trying to make a deal. The day after tomorrow, all of us with the surname Liu will have to sign. There are still some people in the village who want to manipulate the developer, but they're not willing to listen. The village chief needs to find the people who are sure to sign to come to the meeting first. You can ask for leave and come back to listen. Anyway, it doesn't matter whether you do your job or not."
"What's wrong with my job? Do I get paid by your family or eat at your canteen? I don't like what you said. Don't talk about my job in front of me in the future. Whose job in your family is glamorous?"
Chen Jin glanced at the clock on the wall. "I still have half an hour before I get off work. Do you have anything else to do? If not, that's it. You have to change your village's habit of holding meetings all the time. Our dean only calls for a meeting once a month."
"Besides, I won't get involved in your affairs, Liu. I will go to sign on Saturday anyway."
Seeing that this excuse would not get Chen Jin to come to the village, Old Man Liu did not beat around the bush and asked directly, "Do you have any connections in the Demolition Office?"
"What's the relationship?" Chen Jin laughed and said, "It's true that there is a relationship."
Old man Liu's eyes lit up and he said! This damn girl Chen Jin must have her own information channels! He thought hard but he never imagined that it was Chen Jin who was in contact with the people from the Demolition Office!
"We used to be Party A and Party B. That's a big relationship, right?!" Chen Jin laughed several times after he finished speaking. "I'm telling you, why is the news in your village so outrageous? Either you have this channel or that relationship. I've told you that there are no channels or relationships. It's all based on fate. You just don't believe it. You might as well just say that I'm the hidden richest man in Southern Province."
Old man Liu was so angry that his lips were about to twist. He was sure that he would be pissed to death by her sooner or later.
"Are you serious? Are you trying to frame me again?"
"It's fake." Chen Jin paused for a few seconds, then said, "It's true. You can use your own eyes and brains to see. If you have poor eyesight, I recommend you go to the Second Hospital, which is famous for its ophthalmology department. If you have a poor brain, you should go to the Fourth Hospital, which specializes in treating brain problems."
It took Old Man Liu half a minute to calm down.
"...Where is the Fourth Hospital?"
Chen Jin chuckled and wanted to put her feet on the desk, but this was an office and Zhou Ding was still there, so she still had to be careful. I kindly reminded him, "The Fourth Hospital is on Wenquan Road, Dongcheng District."
Zhou Ding's hands trembled. It was the ideological report he was writing! ! !
I have to copy it again.
Old man Liu slapped his head. How could he be tricked by her again? She talked a lot of nonsense and it was hard to tell which of her words were true and which were false.
Even if she had any connection with the people in the demolition office, I don't think she would tell anyone, let alone tell the Liu family. He shouldn't have asked this question!
But since the call had already been made, he thought it would be a waste if he didn't ask, and he was also extremely curious: Where did Chen Jin get so many connections? Could it be true that one of her college classmates worked in the demolition office?
Unable to get the answer, Old Man Liu glanced cautiously at the closed door, lowered his voice, and asked, "You're coming here to sign on Saturday. Do you want money or a house?"
Chen Jin did not answer but asked: "What about you? What do you want? I want your advice, too."
"......I asked you a question and you asked me back?!" Old Man Liu snorted, his voice even quieter, like a thief, "I am planning to buy a house. My four buildings have the same specifications, and the total usable area of each floor is 800 square meters. If I convert these six floors into houses, I can have more than 90 houses of 100 square meters!"
Old man Liu couldn't help but get a little excited. There were more than ninety houses of 100 square meters!
"I asked the developer, they have 40 square meters, 70 square meters and 100 square meters. I want the 70 square meter one so I can have a whole building!"
At that time, he can vacate the first floor and use it for living or opening a shop. Isn't it better for him to collect rent by lying down every day than to get a lump sum of money at one time? It also saves his sons from always coveting the things in his hands.
"Oh, you've already decided to buy a house, why are you still asking me? Are you thinking about the money I have?"
"......What you said is so harsh. Why would I be thinking about your money? I have so many houses, why should I be thinking about your money? Humph!" Old man Liu thought to himself, if it really doesn't work out, he can sell a few houses and have some money in his hands.
Chen Jin responded perfunctorily: "Yes, you don't want my money, so why are you asking so many questions?"
Old Man Liu's smile froze, and he chuckled awkwardly twice, "Just tell me the truth in advance, do you want money or a house?"
He felt that Chen Jin was a man who could succeed in everything he did. Although his words were unpleasant to the ears, he still believed in Chen Jin's vision. In short, they are much more reliable than those unfilial descendants in the family.
"I want money." Chen Jin said casually.
Old Man Liu's expression became serious, and hesitantly said, "You want money? Your own building plus the homestead is only a little over two million. If you exchange it for houses, you can have 15 houses of 100 square meters. Can you do this business at a loss? Do you want the money to buy land or invest?"
Money or house? Isn’t this old man’s calculation quite smart? I had to ask her which one she chose.
Chen Jin said nonsense casually: "How can I tell others about the investment and money-making? Don't you understand the principle of making a fortune quietly?"
"No, your one or two more words won't affect your ability to make money. Besides, I won't spread the news. Tell me what's wrong?"
"Not really. You guys are all big speakers in the village. I just don't trust you. I told you that people in the village will follow suit and invest. Do you think I can't see your little tricks?" Chen Jinzhao stopped writing and looked at Zhou Ding, then looked up at the clock. "There are still ten minutes left. I usually leave work early. You've delayed my get off work."
"You don't have to compensate me for my salary, and please stop calling me. For those who don't cooperate in signing, you should unite and persuade them. Don't think about fighting with them. They are a big company, and they are not just talking about laws with you. It's time to get off work... What do you want to say?"
Old Liu was anxious. "You really want to take the money, right? You didn't lie to me?"
"That's fake. You're so smart, how can I be inferior to you? You know clearly which one to choose between money and house." Chen Jin laughed and said, "If you buy a house with the money from the homestead, can you still afford to send your two precious grandchildren abroad? Otherwise, you should choose money. It's enough to send ten pairs of twins abroad."
Chen Jin hung up the phone immediately after he finished speaking. She herself was annoyed when people hung up the phone without saying anything, so she knew that by now Old Man Liu would be furious again.
She tidied up the things on the desk and locked up everything that needed to be locked up. Just as she was about to leave work, she heard Zhou Ding ask her if she had any good investment recommendations.
"No, my grandfather called me just now, and I said something nonsense to him to piss him off." Chen Jin thought for a moment and gave a serious suggestion: "Speaking of investment, I really can't think of any good recommendations for now. For things like real estate, if you don't have enough money to invest, people won't take you along. And if you don't have acquaintances, you're likely to be cheated, and many people run away with the money. If you want to do business with someone, you'd better think carefully. These days, relatives and friends can cheat you. If you need it, I can recommend a lawyer for you, at least there's some legal protection."
"Well, I'm just asking casually." Zhou Ding scratched his head embarrassedly, "I don't have much money saved. If I put the money in the bank, it won't make much money. I thought about doing something to make some extra money."
With just the salary of a counselor, there is no sign of collective housing for the time being, and it is not easy to buy a house outside. If he were to find a partner to marry now, he would have to wait for a marriage house, which would definitely be a year or two. Once you get married you can no longer live in the school dormitory.
So, he doesn’t dare to find a partner now.
"Then I'll keep an eye out for you. If there's a suitable one, I'll recommend it to you." Chen Jin looked at the time and it was just time to get off work. He said something to Zhou Ding, then took his things and left.
Zhou Ding was also preparing to pack up, but ten minutes later, Chen Jin came back again.
"Did you drop something?"
Chen Jin sighed, "No, I think there are some exciting things that we shouldn't miss." As he said that, he went to rummage through the drawer, pulled out a leave application, wrote it down quickly, and walked out like a gust of wind.
After waiting at the office door for a while, the person inside finally finished the call, and Chen Jin knocked on the door three times. He grinned sheepishly, "Deputy Dean Sun, I'm here to ask for leave..."
"Oh, ok. Come in." Vice Dean Sun took the leave application and took a look at it. He signed it happily and said, "The learning atmosphere in your office is pretty good recently. I heard that you are also going to go to night school. Young people should do this to maintain their enthusiasm for learning. By the way, is everything going well at home?"
It's not good to always say it's okay and always ask for leave.
So Chen Jin said, "This is a bit serious. We may need to ask the police and lawyers for help."
Vice Dean Sun frowned slightly and said, "It's so serious...you should be careful."
"Yeah!" Chen Jin nodded sincerely.
After getting into the car with the request, Chen Jin called Nie Rong first, "I'm going to Qiaoxi Village tomorrow. Are you in the village? If you are, that's fine. I'll invite you to my grandfather's house for dinner."
"Haha, we're not going to cause any trouble. We live in a society ruled by law and we don't do anything illegal. Okay, okay, see you tomorrow."
As for Old Man Liu, I won’t notify him. I’ll give him a big surprise tomorrow.
—
Old man Liu, who had the phone hung up, was really angry. When he opened the door, several people lying on the door outside almost knocked him down. Apparently, these people were eavesdropping on his phone call, which made him even angrier!
The grandchildren touched their heads and noses awkwardly, not knowing what to say.
Seeing Old Man Liu coming out, the four brothers including Old Liu stood up quickly.
Liu Laosan was a little dissatisfied and said, "Dad, you are really something. You have to tell Chen Jin about everything. When has she ever told us about good things? You are not thinking of asking Chen Jin how to choose the compensation plan, are you?"
As he spoke, Liu Laosan was a little angry. "Do we have to ask her how our family should choose? You are really something. You always come up to her to ask for trouble."
They have been discussing it at home for several days, but nothing has been decided. The brothers are getting impatient. The people with the surname Liu in the village are now united as one to confirm and sign.
The main reason is that the developers only want the buildings in the village, and the fields and vegetable plots are not included in the demolition range, so they have no way of taking more even if they want to.
These days, the village head and village cadres ran around the village, repeatedly explaining and arguing, and finally made the villagers confirm one thing: the amount of compensation given is the same as that given to Qiaodong Village and Mutang Village two years ago. The reason why some people in those two villages received more compensation was because they demolished orchards, factories, fish ponds, fields, etc. The compensation for house demolition was almost the same.
Everyone gradually agreed to this demolition plan.
However, there are several families in the village whose surname is not Liu. Their homesteads are small and their houses are small. They are not happy with the current compensation plan. They say it would be better to calculate it based on the number of people, so that they can get more.
Those with the surname Liu were united. They went to those families every day to persuade, coerce and bribe them. We met each other in the village quite often, so naturally we would talk about what compensation plan each family would choose. At present, there are still more people who choose money, and they are more inclined to take money.
Liu Laoer said: "There are several brothers in our family. Although the fourth brother has nothing to do with the demolition of our family, he also said that we will take the compensation for the demolition. We will choose to take the money."
Liu Laoda hurriedly followed up and agreed, "Yes, it's right to ask for money. The developer said it was built according to the specification of 2,000 yuan per square meter, and it can be sold at least at 2,000 yuan per square meter in the future. But look, Dad, the community opened by Uncle Chen Jin is only 1,210 square meters. The location there is much better than our village. There will be a direct subway in the future, and it is also close to the center of Xicheng District. Look at what we have here in our village? There is no subway, and the city center is far away. The price of this place is definitely not 2,000 yuan per square meter!"
"I've asked around. Let's take the money and buy a house in the center of Xicheng District, in that high-end community where people from Qiaodong Village gather. What's it called? Rose Garden! Yes, Rose Garden! Let's buy a house there. A large flat is enough for our family to buy four. Now one flat is only 800,000 at most, and four flats are only about 3 million. Our family will get tens of millions in compensation. After we buy a house, we can also buy a few shops and send the young people in the family to do some small business! If you want to collect rent, you can use another one or two million to buy a house in the community. Can't you still collect rent?"
"That's right, big brother, this arrangement is perfect. It would be great if we three brothers and you, our parents, each had a house. We finally caught up with the demolition and relocation, and we can finally live the life of city dwellers. We still stay in the village, and our children will be rural people for generations to come."
"That's right. The schools that children in the city go to are better than those of us in the countryside. We have to consider our future children, right? The fourth child settled down in the city early on. Didn't the two siblings, one in the south and one in the north, get into college because they could go to a good school and had good grades? Otherwise, it doesn't make sense that only the two of them got in, while the other children in the family couldn't, because of the backward education!"
When Liu Shisheng heard this, he knew that no matter what his brothers and sisters-in-law said, they all tacitly excluded him. He was furious, but he couldn't confront them. No matter what they say, the final decision is made by the old man. No one can arrange the family's money without his permission. Given the old man's love for his two daughters, one from the south and one from the north, how could he just sit there and watch them study abroad without money?
So, he is not in a hurry.
However, he also agreed with his brothers and sisters-in-law, and followed their advice: "Yes, Dad, it's better to take the money. The houses in the village have been built. They are said to be more valuable. At most, they are better when rented out. How can people buy expensive ones here instead of buying cheaper ones closer to the city?"
"It's nothing more than the developer can't come up with that much money, so they want to use the house as a deduction, which is why they inflate the value. Think about it, isn't that the truth?"
Old man Liu glanced from his sons and daughters-in-law to the grandchildren and their wives who were sitting around him. He sneered and said, "Your analysis is very logical. You guys are really good at making arrangements."
He bought another large flat for 800,000 yuan, and he bought four units at a time. He also bought shops for his grandchildren to do business, and finally asked them to buy a house in the city to rent out.
He made a rough calculation and found that the more than 10 million was just like 10,000 yuan. If he bought a little here and there, he would have enough money.
They were all arranged, and everything in his hands evaporated into thin air. If the sons are divided, can the daughters not get any share at all? That won’t work either.
The things have been divided up almost completely, and these two old guys are just a burden.
Although Chen Jin was talking a lot of nonsense, he guessed that the last few words he said were most likely true. It seems that Chen Jin wants to take the house.
She was also optimistic about the development of the village and thought it was cost-effective to buy a house, which was the same idea as him.
As far as he knew, several village cadres' families were planning to buy houses. Could it be that they were all idiots?
More than 10 million may sound good, but in reality, with the way these unfilial descendants use it, how many years can it last? It's easy for people to target you if you keep the money in your hands, so it's better to just use the house, such as a building in a residential area, to rent it out. You can make at least 30,000 yuan a month. At worst, he could just divide the compensation for the homesteads among their families. If they wanted to settle down in the city, they could go and he wouldn't care. From now on, whoever is filial will receive more subsidies from the rent he receives!
Seeing that Old Man Liu had no objection, the brothers thought that he agreed to the plan and were all secretly happy, but they were all thinking about how to put more money into their own pockets. The other three thought more about it. They wanted to drive the fourth brother's family out. His family was not registered at home, and he did not contribute any money or effort to the family's house, so why should he get a share?
Liu Shisheng suppressed his excitement and was already considering using money to enroll the twins in courses at an overseas study agency. Their English level is not good enough, but if they improve it now, it shouldn't be a problem.
Old Liu ignored what they were muttering and discussing, and walked out slowly with his hands behind his back to look for his old friends.
"Liu Yang, where is your grandfather?"
"I went to the ancestral hall." Liu Yang used a feather duster to drive away the bugs on the counter. "Grandpa Lao Gen, don't encourage my grandfather to do bad things again. Be careful, my parents will come to your house to look for you."
Liu Laogen swung his hands in annoyance, "Go to hell, you little brat, you have no right to butt in on the affairs of your elders? You don't even know how to respect the elderly! Your father Baldy San still comes to see me? Ask him to come to see me tonight."
Liu Yang was sullen, staring at his back with eyes wide open, cursing: "Look at how arrogant you are, if you come back to cause trouble, I will definitely go to your house to watch the fun!"
By the way, the one who caused the trouble will come here today or tomorrow, right? It's time to let the troublemaker come and teach Liu Laogen a lesson. He talks all kinds of nonsense. His grandfather is now holding the certificate of the homestead and says that if they don't behave themselves, they won't have any share of the things in the house? As a result, he was scolded by his father.
The head of this household is his father, not his grandfather. The old man has listened too much to Liu Laogen's instigation, and all kinds of messy thoughts have come up in his mind.
Seeing Auntie Fatty coming to buy something, Liu Yang suddenly asked, "Auntie Fatty, did you call me today for any trouble?"
"What?" Auntie Fatty asked subconsciously, but quickly added, "I don't know her well, how can I get her phone number? What's wrong with your family? Does your grandfather want to marry a concubine again?"
When talking about this matter, Liu Yang got angry.
"If you don't have it, just say no! Why are you asking so many questions?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Auntie Fat slapped him on the head, "I gave you face, didn't I? Did I provoke you and you shouted at me?"
Liu Yang quickly admitted his mistake and thought bitterly in his heart: Let the troublemaker come and blow these people up! Really, I'm fed up with them!
