Chapter 27 Homestead
Several village cadres usually deal with the residents of the brigade. These people in the village are afraid that there will be no advantage to be made, and if there is any advantage to be made, they will rush to take advantage of it.
What Wang Yuanchao said made sense. They came to the Red Flag Brigade to work in the countryside, and their household registration information was transferred over. They were residents of the Red Flag Brigade, right?
As a member of the Red Flag Brigade, he can apply for homestead land to build a house, and this request itself is not excessive.
Secretary Shen looked at Wang Yuanchao's righteousness and felt that Wang Yuanchao was highly conscious and was worthy of being a child raised by a soldier.
After several village cadres exchanged glances, they all nodded slightly. Secretary Shen spoke up and said, "Wang Zhiqing, since you have such a high level of awareness and such good character,
We are naturally willing to help you develop good character.
But now the residential land on both sides of the village has been lost. If you want to build a house yourself, you may need to build it at the entrance of the village or at the foot of the mountain. I don’t know if you are willing to do so.”
Wang Yuanchao didn't want to stay in the countryside where the educated youth were sent to work. At that time, the educated youth from all over the country would be crowded in one yard, which would not only be inconvenient for their lives, but there would definitely be a lot of trouble.
Although he is the only educated youth in the Hongqi Brigade now, and lives alone in such a large yard, Wang Yuanchao knows history. Next year will be the first year of compulsory large-scale relocation of educated youth to the countryside, and there will be no shortage of educated youth coming to the Hongqi Brigade by then.
Moreover, you have to live in the Hongqi Brigade for at least ten years, get your own house, clean and decorate it well, build it early and enjoy it early, which is good.
So Wang Yuanchao looked around and pointed to the north of the Youth League compound and said, "Secretary Zeng, Team Leader, how about that corner? It's probably about 300 to 400 meters away from the Youth League, just below two mountains, with a river and the road to the village in front."
Secretary Zeng and his men looked in the direction Wang Yuanchao pointed and instantly knew where it was.
After hesitating for a moment, Secretary Zeng said, "Wang Zhiqing, the place you are looking at is a little too close to the foot of the mountain, and it is also so remote and too far from the residential area of the brigade . I'm afraid it's not safe for you to live here alone."
Wang Yuanchao had a space secret in his body, but he hoped to live in a remote place with fewer people, so he smiled at several village cadres and said, "Secretary Zeng, team leader, I am not afraid of building a house at the foot of the mountain.
At that time, the wall of the yard will be built higher. If there are wild beasts rushing down the mountain, as long as they cannot rush directly into my house, they will just be providing me with meat to eat. After all, I was born in a military family and have been trained by my parents since I was a child.
The wild beasts can't hurt me.
I just learned that there are very few residential plots in the brigade now.
I also don’t want to seize the villagers’ housing land resources when I first arrive at the brigade. I choose a piece of land that is far away from the brigade and no one wants to build a house, which can also make the work of several leaders easier. ”
Secretary Shen simply admired Wang Yuanchao's spirit and attitude, as well as his recognition of the role of a soldier.
Now that Wang Yuanchao was sure of his decision, he stopped trying to persuade him and said, "Okay, let's go over and take a look at the land now."
The village cadres were very familiar with the land of their own brigade. They went there now just to let Wang Yuanchao take a look at the actual site and confirm it again, so as not to regret it later after making the selection.
The group arrived at the location of the homestead that Wang Yuanchao had just visited. Wang Yuanchao estimated in his mind that it was about 400 meters away from the educated youth site, and about 800 to 900 meters away from the nearest house in the brigade's residential area.
There are no other houses around, the location is very quiet, and the area of this flat land is quite large.
There are mountains to the north and east, Qingyu River, the lifeblood of the Red Flag Brigade, to the south, and the road leading to the brigade to the west.
The area of this flat land is quite large. Wang Yuanchao estimated that it is more than two acres.
After Wang Yuanchao looked around, he walked over to several village cadres and said with satisfaction:
"Secretary Zeng, Captain, I am very satisfied with this piece of land for housing. It is backed by a mountain and fronted by water. The area of the land for housing is also very large. When the time comes, I will build the wall of the yard a little higher to ensure safety. Secretary Zeng, Captain, when I build the house, can I use the wall to enclose this piece of land from the foot of the mountain?
In this way, I can dig up all the land and grow some vegetables in the yard, so that I can be self-sufficient.
Of course, I will definitely not take advantage of the team. I will definitely provide the team with as much money as I need for this piece of homestead."
After hearing what Wang Yuanchao said, Secretary Zeng and his colleagues did not immediately express their opinions. Fortunately, except for the brigade accountant, all the other village cadres were present, so Secretary Zeng said, "Wang Zhiqing, how about we discuss this first and talk to you later?"
Wang Yuanchao took out another cigarette, handed a round of cigarettes to several village cadres, and said:
"Okay, Secretary Zeng, I'm sorry to trouble you."
After waiting for a while, several village cadres came over and said, "Wang Zhiqing, our brigade allocates residential land to villagers free of charge based on the number of people.
But the piece of flat land you chose covers an area of about 2.5 acres. Although no villagers chose this piece of land, if you want to enclose this piece of land, it will far exceed the area of the land approved by the villagers. I have just discussed this with several village cadres, and they think that if you live here alone and don't grow some vegetables to be self-sufficient, it will not work.
So we discussed it and decided that we would grant you the portion of your homestead that exceeds the limit at 10 yuan per mu. If you want to fence off the flat land, you will need to pay the team 20 yuan for the land. What do you think?"
After thinking about it, Wang Yuanchao nodded decisively and said:
"Okay, Secretary Zeng, Captain, when can we go through the formalities?"
"We are going to the youth camp now. You can live there until the house is built. After you have arranged your luggage, we will go to the brigade to handle the formalities. It will take time to get the land certificate. We still need to report it to the commune and give it to you after the commune has approved and stamped it."
"Okay, I'm sorry to bother you all. I'll go to the commune tomorrow to buy some supplies and treat you all to a good meal. I hope you will show me your kindness."
"Haha, our job is to serve the people. This is what we should do. Don't take it to heart, Wang Zhiqing.
Besides, food is so precious nowadays, how can I let you treat me to a meal? This is not possible, absolutely not possible."
