When Yu Hao arrived at Qinghe Village and went to find the village chief, the village chief was weeding the ground.
The village chief had no idea who Yu Hao was. If anyone was looking for him, it would be either a villager or a higher-up.
This stranger puzzled him for quite a while.
The village chief, carrying a hoe, sat at the edge of the field and asked, "Who are you?"
"Hello," Yu Hao greeted politely, "I'm an employee of the infrastructure department at Qimingxing."
"Ah~~" the village chief said happily, "Qimingxing, several people from our village work in your factory and earn a lot of money. It's much better than farming."
"Are you here to recruit?" The village chief thought to himself, and immediately dusted himself off. "Come on, I'll call all the villagers out!"
Yu Hao rolled his eyes: "Village chief, I told you, I'm from the infrastructure department, not the personnel department. Recruitment is managed by the personnel department."
The village chief was very disappointed: "Then why did you come to me?"
Yu Hao took out a whole stack of documents and certificates: "Village Chief, take a look at this first."
The village chief took out his reading glasses, placed them on the ground, and examined them carefully.
After a long pause, the village chief smacked his lips and said, "Isn't this the planning map and documents for the trade city?"
"You didn't come here specifically to annoy me, did you?"
Yu Hao was taken aback: "What do you mean by that?"
The village chief said angrily, "Isn't this trading city located in Baoli Village on the other side of the river? We are so envious. It's only a dozen meters away, but our village can't get any of it."
"What kind of fate do we have? The villagers across the street are going crazy. They've already put up a price for the land, and wow, it's a whopping 8,000 yuan!"
"However, I heard that I was scammed. Now the villagers are asking for 1,000 yuan, and the government has not given a reply yet."
Yu Hao chuckled and said, "That's impossible. Village Chief, you've seen the document too. It clearly states that the guide price is 300, which is the best price on the market."
"Human greed is like a snake trying to swallow an elephant; if people are too greedy, it is easy for the government to change its plans."
"In other words, if we can't afford to offend the government, can't we at least avoid it?"
"There's no need to put all your eggs in one basket. That's why I'm here. Does the village chief understand what I mean?"
The village chief carefully considered Yu Hao's words.
My mind couldn't help but wonder: something unpleasant must have happened?
Has the address of the trade city changed?
The village chief couldn't believe it—could a location that had been determined be changed?
Actually, the village chief lacks understanding; he doesn't even bother to change things, he just takes detours.
In later generations, how many people fantasized about getting rich overnight through land expropriation and demolition, but ultimately persisted to the end?
What was the final result?
Even highways can be bypassed!
Do I really have to go through your house?
The answer is no. There are countless examples of us avoiding your company if we can't reach an agreement.
Some of the houses have even become popular spots for online influencers to take photos.
The village chief asked cautiously, "Does this mean we're going to locate the trading city in our Qinghe Village?"
Yu Hao nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, the government's plan has changed. The location has been changed, and Qinghe Village has been chosen. I would like to hear the village chief's opinion first."
The village chief exclaimed, "This is a good thing!"
The village chief rubbed his hands together: "This is not the place to talk. Let's go to the village committee."
Yu Hao quickly stopped him: "No need, the scenery here is nice. Let's get back to the main topic. Do you think the villagers in Qinghe Village will accept the government's guidance price if the trade city is located here? We need an answer so we can make the necessary preparations."
The village chief scratched his head: "Well... how should I put it? With the example of Baoli Village before us, I think there shouldn't be any problem."
"However, I'm also worried that some villagers might cause trouble, and I need to ask them to find out."
Yu Hao stood up and said, "Well then, village chief, you should first gather the villagers and sound them out to see how many disagree. Then tell me, and try to persuade those you can. As for the stubborn ones who want to follow Baoli Village's example, then I'm sorry, we might have to change the location again."
The village chief said, "Alright, I'll go now."
Yu Hao nodded: "I won't go with you. You guys ask around among yourselves first, and I'll come over tomorrow."
"That works too."
"Okay, I'll wait for your good news."
After Yu Hao left.
The village chief, carrying a hoe, abandoned his work in the fields and ran towards the village committee.
Several villagers at the village entrance saw the village chief rushing around and hurriedly asked what was wrong, whether someone's house was on fire.
The village chief pointed and said, "Go, go, go door to door and call people to the village committee. I'll broadcast it over the loudspeaker. We have something to discuss."
We arrived at the village committee.
The village chief turned on the loudspeaker and shouted a few times, "Hello! Can you hear me? Hello?"
"Um, all villagers, come to the village committee immediately, there is something important to discuss."
"One person from each household must come to manage this!"
"No one is allowed to be absent!"
"This concerns every single household; once it's missed, it's over!"
The broadcast began.
Li Hanzi scratched his head, muttering, "What is it? Always making useless noise. Is there some document from above again? Can it help me with farming or something?"
Despite his words, Li Hanzi still got up and headed to the village committee.
Upon arrival, there were already many destinations to reach.
They chatted casually, gossiping about everyone from this family to that family.
It was quite lively.
Li Hanzi nudged a villager next to him and asked, "What's up?"
The villager rolled his eyes: "How should I know? Let them come if they want, it's not like they'll lose a piece of meat anyway."
A moment later, the village chief came out and calmed the chaotic scene. He said, "Is everyone here by now?"
