Unreliable
Old Liu was extremely anxious. "Tell me, when will the demolition be carried out?"
Chen Jin spread his hands and said, "My uncle said that you received news about the demolition and asked me to come over to see if it was true. I thought you really got the news. But after talking for so long, it turns out that it's not confirmed. If you keep spreading false news, aren't you afraid of scaring off the demolition office?"
I have never seen Qiaoxi Village in such a mess.
Come to think of it, it would be better to notify them unexpectedly and quickly arrange for people to stay in the village to carry out the work. Once the news is released, it will give the villagers more time to mess around, making the demolition work even more difficult.
Chen Jin became even more determined. If Qiaoxi Village was really going to be demolished, she would be the first to sign, take the money and leave, and would never join them in making trouble.
"No, you don't have any news about the demolition?" Old man Liu remained skeptical. Chen Jin talks nonsense all day long and never tells the truth. He is not sure if Chen Jin said that on purpose because he doesn't want to spread the news and let them know?
"No. If I had any news, I wouldn't have come all this way."
Chen Jin spoke honestly, which made Old Man Liu angry: See, he knew that she would not come to the temple for no reason.
But this is in line with Chen Jin's temper, so he is disappointed again: there is still no definite news.
Everyone else in the room was a little disappointed. They thought Chen Jin would bring accurate information, but this was the result?
But everyone was not too disappointed. The news brought back by the village chief's son-in-law was not something that would be said without any reason. There must be such a sign. It’s just a matter of time, their Qiaoxi Village will definitely be able to catch up with the demolition!
Everyone else was quite optimistic, but Liu Shisheng's family was a little anxious.
The news of the demolition has not been confirmed. Their two children want to study abroad, but they don’t have the money now, so they can only support one of them at most. Seeing that the next semester will be the last semester of my junior year, I have to start preparing for the summer vacation and sign up for study abroad agencies...
Liu Yibei's eyes turned red. He glared at Chen Jin and whispered to Liu Yinan, "You don't know the news yet, but you're still coming back. What are you bragging about?"
Liu Yinan also frowned and patted Liu Yibei on the head. If the demolition fails to complete before the last semester of their senior year, only one of the two siblings will be able to go.
Chen Jin thought about it and decided that since the news came from Liu Mantang's home, she might as well go there. He walked out while crunching the apples, "I'm going to the village chief's house to pay New Year's greetings."
Old Liu was so angry that he didn't want to move, but his eyes rolled and he immediately stood up and followed, "I'll go with you."
Stop the others who want to follow, and tell them not to block the village chief’s house with so many people going. When Chen Jin went there, someone would definitely smell the scent and run to the village chief's house to inquire about the news.
The people in Qiaoxi Village still believed that Chen Jin's uncle Chen Wenqiang could get the information.
"Let's go." Chen Jin opened the trunk, took out the remaining bag of oranges, took out a box of Sun God oral liquid, and walked ahead. After walking a few steps, he found that Old Man Liu was unhappy again, and said, "Unhappy again? Is there a family split in your family? I heard that there has been a lot of family splits in the village recently, and there have even been murders."
Old man Liu felt that sooner or later he would be angered to death by Chen Jin. "You knew to take a gift box when you went to the village chief's house, but you only got a bag of oranges when you came to my house?"
"Don't like oranges? I'll send you some sugarcane next year, but you may not be able to chew it." Chen Jin just didn't respond. What are you thinking about? Should we also send Sun God oral liquid to his family? Don’t you know how expensive this thing is? Thirty or forty yuan a box!
Chen Jin didn't care about his expression. He walked along the village road with a gift box in one hand and a bag of oranges in the other. His mind was busy. "Which family is it that is said to have killed the old man? Please show me the way. If I see them outside next time, I have to avoid them."
Old Man Liu said, "The police haven't found out anything yet, so don't talk nonsense. People in our village are a little lazy, but they won't really do such a thing."
Wow! Do you know that the people in your village are lazy? It seems that this understanding is still correct. Chen Jin smiled and said, "I didn't say it out loud, and I didn't intend to spread it. I just wanted to know what he looks like so I can avoid him in the future. Besides, the people who spread the news the most are from Qiaoxi Village. Don't believe it? Otherwise, how could it spread to Jinxiu Community and Xiuli Community? Some people in Rose Garden also said that in a few days, everyone in University Town will know about it."
Old Liu was speechless. This was truly a stupid thing done by people from his own village. No matter what happened, just spread the news out. As a villager, is it glorious to go out and tell others about it?
He has no idea of maintaining the reputation of the village and is only ruining it.
"Look, it's the one in front." Old Man Liu raised his chin for her to look.
Chen Jin slowed down his pace and read out the words on the large white paper posted at the door of the house: "House for rent, the lowest price in the village!"
“There should be a lot of people renting houses here, right?”
"Hmph, it's fully rented. I'll see how low they can go."
"Your tenant ran to his house?" Otherwise, why would he be so angry?
When Chen Jin saw that Old Man Liu was angry again, he knew that he had guessed right. She advised sincerely, "You are so old, you should control your temper. It is easy to have a stroke. If you have a stroke, your four sons will be very angry. You are happy to control people now, but you will know the consequences when something happens to you."
Chen Jin felt that what he said made sense, and it was hard for her to care about him so earnestly.
Old man Liu snorted. He didn't believe that Chen Jin was concerned about him out of kindness. She just wanted to watch the fun. Bad kid!
"Liu Laogen, your...the granddaughter from Qiaodong Village is here again."
Seeing them coming over, someone quickly thought of Chen Jin's uncle and ran up to ask Old Man Liu for information, "Did her uncle receive accurate information about the demolition?"
Otherwise, why hasn't Raisijin come for several months? Now the news of the village demolition has spread internally and everyone with the surname Liu knows about it. Why is Raisijin coming just now? Did she get the confirmed news? Want to buy a homestead again?
Old Liu waved his hand. "No, where did she get the news? If you don't believe it, you can go to the village chief's house and find out."
This is to prevent these people from thinking that he deliberately concealed the news.
As he walked, more people joined in. When Chen Jin arrived at Liu Mantang's house, there was already a long tail following him. Sometimes I feel really helpless and want to knock on these people's brains to see if the water in the river between their two villages was dried up by their brains.
Liu Mantang was also helpless, as he didn't know that he had called people over to hold a village meeting.
My son-in-law came to my house and said that the city was planning to continue developing this area in the suburbs of Nancheng District, and that there was a high probability that their village would be demolished. At that time, only my family was there. Even though he emphasized it again and again, someone in the family still leaked the news.
Now, the news spread from one person with the surname Liu to ten people, and from ten to a hundred. Before, only a few families in the village knew about it, but later people with other surnames in the village also knew about it, and it spread outside!
People come to his house every day to ask when it will be demolished.
If only he knew, otherwise why would he go to the trouble of asking his son-in-law to inquire about the news in the city?
Originally, the matter was nothing. Aren’t there enough false news in Qiaoxi Village? The key point is that at this time, two elderly people passed away one after another, and one family after another in the village was splitting up. Just dealing with these trivial matters in the village was enough to give him a headache.
It also attracted law firms and police stations to set up base... It's really embarrassing for the entire city of Rong.
I finally managed to stay at home under the pretext of entertaining relatives during the New Year, but these people came again! When he heard that the villagers were coming, he really wanted to fall down and pretend to be sick.
"Dad, not only the villagers came, but also that troublemaker. She said she came to wish you a happy new year. Do you think she has any news?"
Causing trouble today? Oh, Chen Jin. Chen Jin? !
Liu Mantang sat up straight and urged, "Please invite someone in to chat."
As soon as he saw Chen Jin, Liu Mantang couldn't help but smile, "You came here and brought such an expensive gift? You are so polite."
In one word, Old Man Liu's mood was ruined again. She didn't even think of taking a box with her when she went to his house, but he saw a lot of things in her trunk.
Chen Jin made a few polite remarks and was about to speak when several more people squeezed into the room, and someone outside was urging people to move inside.
Chen Jin pursed her lips. She seemed like a gorilla in the zoo.
"Stop arguing. If you want to argue, go outside." Liu Mantang got a headache when he saw this group of people, especially the troublemakers among them. They were the ones who spread the news everywhere and gave him things to do for no reason.
Liu Mantang thought Chen Jin had some news, but Chen Jin said as soon as he opened his mouth that he had no news. He just heard that his son-in-law brought back news, so he wanted to confirm with him whether it was true.
Liu Mantang was depressed, so now even Chen Wenqiang had heard the news, so the demolition was still a long way off. Year after year, if the demolition is not implemented, the villagers still hold on to their fantasies, and day by day, they are further away from the real thing.
Since the news has spread so widely, Liu Mantang did not hide it and said, "It is said that the industrial park and the science and technology park have completed the first phase of the project, and factories and enterprises will gradually move in after the new year. We will probably build a new railway station in our village and the suburbs."
After Chen Jin thought about it, he felt that it was unlikely. The current railway station is located in the southwest corner of Rong City, not far from the center of Rong City. Originally, because the train station was located in the southwest corner, there were many factories in the suburbs of the southern city.
But, it’s not necessary to build another railway station in the southern part of the city, right?
Speaking of building a railway station, the new railway station should be built somewhere else... Chen Jin suddenly started to realize that the airport was in the southeast direction, and the land she bought was in the northeast corner of Rong City!
Chen Jin was very excited. If the news about building a new railway station was true, then... hehehe!
No, she will ask her uncle to go to Xichan Temple to burn incense tomorrow. She has done her best and now she needs to thank God for what he has done.
Chen Jin smiled mysteriously, which made Liu Mantang unsure. Was this news true or false? Did Chen Wenqiang really not receive any news at all?
Logically speaking, Chen Wenqiang would benefit a lot from the demolition of Qiaoxi Village. The homestead belongs to Chen Jin, but don’t Chen Wenqiang’s brothers and sisters also have a building?
"I think this is a good idea. The old train station is shabby and it's always crowded. It's only right to build a new one. The industrial areas are all here, and the train station is built here. The distances from the old and new city centers of Dongcheng District and Xicheng District to us are about the same..."
This person's analysis makes a lot of sense. But Chen Jin felt that it was impossible for the higher-ups to place two train stations here. Didn’t they want to develop other districts?
After the factories in the suburbs of Nancheng District are relocated, the industrial land may be sold and converted into industrial land for housing construction. Aren’t the village chief and uncle just waiting for the land to be released?
Several leading real estate companies in the city are eyeing it, right? Or maybe these companies are not interested in the industrial land, but are eyeing Qiaoxi Village, which is closer to the science and technology park and industrial park?
Chen Jin felt that the news spread by the people of Xinqiao West Village would be more reliable than asking Shen Baichuan.
Thinking about it, he sighed and said regretfully: "It seems that the news is still spreading. I thought it was really going to be demolished, so I ran over here excitedly."
Liu Mantang was suspicious. He didn't quite believe it, but he had no evidence and always felt that Chen Jin knew something.
"You're not short of money now, are you? I heard that you bought a large piece of land before the New Year and are planning to build a building?"
As Liu Mantang spoke, he felt jealous. Look, a young man can afford to buy land and build a building. What about those people in Qiaodong Village? Not to mention Chen Wenqiang, whose company is getting bigger and bigger. Even Chen Wensong and Chen Wenzhen could use the money to buy land in the suburbs of Xicheng District to build buildings and sell them. The news of the demolition of their Qiaoxi Village had not even been confirmed, but they had already made a round of money.
Without enough money, you can’t start any business.
The people in the room looked at Chen Jin with green eyes, shocked: She bought a large piece of land?
Old man Liu only found out about this a few days ago. Even if Liu Mantang hadn't mentioned it, he would have almost asked Chen Jin about it. Today, his mind is full of thoughts about the demolition.
There are a lot of people here now, so I'll ask Chen Jin when I get back.
"It's just a small piece of land in a corner. How can I afford a big piece of land? I'll be out of money after I buy it. So, when I heard that Qiaoxi Village was going to be demolished, I rushed here. But after I bought the land, I'll be out of money. I don't know how long it will take to save up money to build a building. Oh, I regret it. If I had known, I wouldn't have bought that piece of land. It wouldn't have been my turn to bid for it at the auction. Now it's troublesome to sell it."
People who heard it felt much more comfortable. It was like that. Is it that easy to buy land and build a building? The troublemakers are just floating around. They want to build everything as soon as they have some money. So what if they get the compensation for land acquisition? Then all of them fell onto a piece of broken ground.
Chen Jin stood up and said goodbye, saying that he had to go back to his house to check on the situation, and squeezed his way out.
Liu Mantang wanted to chat with her a little more to see if there was any other news from Chen Wenqiang. Chen Wenqiang now has projects one after another and owns several pieces of land. He is even more powerful than a year ago... He doesn't believe that Chen Wenqiang doesn't have some connections with the higher-ups, and it must be something he doesn't want to say out loud, otherwise how could his business be so smooth?
He wanted to leave, but the villagers were still unwilling to leave, and the people who came wanted to talk to him about dividing the household. The old ones refuse to share, but the young ones insist on dividing it. What a mess!
"After you have discussed your family affairs, come and talk to me. I will not interfere in your family affairs."
"No, village chief, you have to persuade my dad. He is so old and doesn't know anything. Don't you think a big tree should have branches? We are not leaving nothing to the old couple. Let's take our share, right? The building of this family was not built entirely by them. Didn't we contribute money and effort?"
"You little bastards are so heartless. Your parents raised you and you're already thinking about dividing the family before they've even buried you. It's like a big tree with branches. You can't divide the family until the old man is gone!"
"Second Master, I don't recognize what you said..."
Chen Jin listened to the noise outside the door for a while before strolling towards the end of the village.
Seeing Old Man Liu following her with his hands behind his back, he asked, "Aren't you going to argue a little?"
Old man Liu said disdainfully: "There is no sign of demolition. It's useless to argue about it."
Then he asked, "Did you use all the money to buy land? The land acquisition compensation is so much money..."
Old Liu was very worried. This must be several million, right?
Chen Jin looked at him with a half-smile, "It's my own money, I can even change it into coins and smash them into the water tank to listen to the sound."
Old man Liu understood what she meant: It's not your place to tell me what to do with my money, so don't come here to get scolded.
Passing by the village cadres' office in front of Lao Liu's ancestral hall, Chen Jin saw a familiar figure and went over to greet him, "Uncle Wenhao."
When he turned around, he saw the person at the desk next to him and asked in surprise, "You are here too?"
