"Talk in private? Are you trying to deceive us?"
"Big brother, do you really want the whole village to know how much money your family received from the demolition?"
Hey!
That makes sense!
Don't show off your wealth. How can you let others know how much money you have received?
Tomorrow, all relatives and friends will come to ask for money and take advantage of you.
The Universal Racecourse has considered this very carefully.
He Gui brought more than forty men with him, and each of them was familiar with the demolition terms.
The men followed the villagers to their homes, measured the size of the houses, counted the population, checked whether the families were divided, measured the land, compared it with the yellow book, and verified the house deeds and land deeds.
Make sure the information is consistent with the information collected, and then sit down to discuss the specific demolition conditions.
Two guys are responsible for one family.
It will take at least five or six days to talk to each family one by one.
The headman's house is under the charge of He Gui and Xu Cong.
The head of the village rubbed his hands, having some questions in his mind, but was reluctant to speak.
He Gui smiled knowingly, as he had seen many similar situations.
He took the initiative to speak, "Isn't it that the village chief wants to ask about your household registration after the relocation?"
"Right, right, right! There are over a thousand people. The government can't just ignore them. I haven't been to the county recently, so I don't know what the county magistrate means."
He Gui took out an official document and said, "Village head, please take a look at this first. This is the official document sent by the Jingzhao Yin to the county government. You only need to know about this matter, but don't spread it for the time being."
The village head squinted his eyes and stared at the document, reading it word by word.
The meaning of the official document is very simple. To sum it up, the Jingzhao Yin ordered the local county government to cooperate with the work of the Huanyu Racecourse and properly resettle the relocated villagers.
After the collective relocation of Hongling Village, the villagers are still Hongling Villagers. The village head has to shoulder the heavy responsibility of maintaining public order in the village.
Knowing that he could continue to work as the village head after the demolition, he was very satisfied.
This demolition is great!
Not only can I live in a new house and get money, but I can also continue to be the village head. It’s really great.
"Does the village head have any more questions?"
"My dear friends, with so many people in our family, could you please tell me how much money we can get?"
"It will be divided according to the number of people. Each person can get 20 taels of silver."
There are so many.
He thought that each person could be dealt with with just two or three pieces of silver.
The conditions offered by the Universal Racecourse are really tempting.
There are more than a thousand people in Hongling Village. If each person pays twenty taels of silver, it will cost more than twenty thousand taels of silver.
This is not a small amount.
"Then how much compensation can I get for my family's land?"
"Five taels per mu, fifty mu of land would earn you two hundred and fifty taels of silver."
"Isn't this a little too little?" The village head was not very satisfied with the price of the land.
He Gui said, "The village head owns 50 mu of land. Five mu of it is top-quality farmland, and 12 mu of it is mid-to-low-quality farmland. The rest is hillside land and sandy soil. At the current market price, hillside and sandy land can't be sold at all. Only a dozen mu of good farmland can still be worth some money.
All of this land, taken together, wouldn't fetch more than two hundred and fifty taels if sold at the market. We, the Huanyu Horse Farm, are sincere and willing to pay a higher price than the market price to purchase the villagers' land. If they're still not satisfied with this price, then there's no point in further negotiations. To be honest with the village head, Donglin Village over the mountain really wants us, the Huanyu Horse Farm, to demolish the land. We can set the conditions for the demolition."
"Donglin Village is so remote, it can't compare to our Hongling Village." The village head emphasized.
He Gui raised his eyebrows and smiled. "When building a horse ranch, there's no need to be picky about the location. Hongling Village and Donglin Village are both within our options. We're just prioritizing Hongling Village. If Hongling Village presents too much resistance, makes too many demands, and keeps delaying the construction, we might switch to Donglin Village."
The village head frowned and said, "Let me think about it again."
"We're not in a hurry. The village head will take his time to think about this condition. We'll be staying in the village public housing for the next few days. When you've made up your mind, come to the village public housing to sign the agreement with us."
The village head asked anxiously, "You said the new house is being built over there by the toll booth. When will it be finished? If we sign the agreement, when can we move in?"
"Construction has already begun on the house over there, and it will be finished soon. If the village head has time, you can go over there and take a look. Along the toll booth, it's almost become a market, and it's getting more and more lively."
"really?"
"Of course it's true. There's no way I could lie about something like this."
"Then I'll go check it out tomorrow."
The next day, the village head took a few villagers to the toll station several miles away.
When the toll station first opened, the village head came once and had a bowl of braised pork noodles at the rest stop. The braised pork was authentic and the ingredients were generous.
