Rebirth 1983

Chapter 187 I Can't Live Without Tian
"I don't agree anyway, don't tell me, I'll tell the old branch secretary myself, go away!"

The noise outside the village committee brigade kept ringing, and the old branch secretary and Chen Song in the house looked at each other, they couldn't think of a proper road repair, why did this happen.

The old party secretary was about to stand up and go out to see who was not willing to cooperate with the road construction. He was about to go out when the man rushed in angrily with a pole.

"Old party secretary, old party secretary, are you there?"

The man who broke in, Chen Song, happened to know Chen Zhiguo.

The Zeng Jin family bullied Sister Wang Yao and Xiao Yaoyao, and after being beaten up by Chen Song, he was also persuaded by the old branch secretary to save him, Chen Zhiguo.

Chen Zhiguo was wearing the clothes he wore when he went to the field, and he held the long pole tightly in his hands. Seeing that Chen Song was there, he was taken aback for a moment.

Behind him, several village cadres from the village committee brigade hurriedly chased after him. They were finally relieved to see Chen Zhiguo stop, and wanted to come in at the door to drag Chen Zhiguo away.

"Don't touch me, or don't blame me for being blind!"

Chen Zhiguo waved his pole, and the people behind him didn't dare to move forward, they could only back away, looking at the old party secretary and Chen Song in the back room in embarrassment.

The old party secretary waved to those village cadres, signaling them to relax, and approached Chen Zhiguo by himself.

"Zhiguo, what's the matter, didn't we make it very clear when we held the village meeting a few days ago? Every household will fully cooperate with the construction of the county road. I asked everyone at that time, but you didn't stand up to object. What do you mean now? You can't be left behind. This is a major issue related to the livelihood of our village!"

Seeing Chen Zhiguo's distraught look, the old branch secretary was unhappy, pointing at Chen Zhiguo was just a lesson!
Chen Zhiguo glanced at Chen Song who was sitting beside him without speaking, and seemed to be vaguely relieved to see that he was not moving.I saw him poking the shoulder pole on the ground, and there was a bang, pretending to be fierce.

"Old Party Secretary, I didn't object because of your face, but I didn't know that this road construction would take up five acres of good paddy fields from my house. My family has only five acres of paddy fields, which is just enough to grow some food. Once this road is repaired, all the paddy fields in my house will become roads. If I plant a hammer field, what do you think you let the three of my family eat?"

"Didn't we agree a long time ago that we will pay [-] mu for paddy fields and [-] mu for dry land? This money has been distributed by the county. When the time comes to measure the route and make a plan, it will be distributed to the big guys in the village. What are you doing?"

Seeing what Chen Zhiguo said, the old party secretary immediately raised his eyebrows, and pointed at Chen Zhiguo angrily.

"Look at how many houses have been occupied for road construction, ten or twenty, quite a few, right? They said what they said, but they didn't say anything, just to cooperate with our village's road construction. Fortunately, you dare to come to the brigade to play tricks in the brigade after being occupied with a few acres of land! Who are you messing with? Are you coming to beat me, mother!"

The old party secretary also fought with the nearby villages over the water source back then, and his temper was not so good. He also became the village party secretary after middle age, so his actions and words were not as fierce as before.

While talking, the old party secretary moved his small body closer to Chen Zhiguo, making Chen Zhiguo keep backing away, holding the hand holding the shoulder pole and not daring to move.

Being bullied by the old branch secretary, Chen Zhiguo could only back away, for fear of hurting the old branch secretary.

"Old Party Secretary, I respect you, but you have to think about me too! Three hundred and one mu of paddy fields is quite a lot. My family's five mu of paddy fields is also [-], yes, a lot! But my family has no paddy fields, and all five acres have been occupied. But if you look at other people's homes, how much is occupied, either less than an acre, or dry land. Of course, this does not affect them. They can still get compensation for demolition. How could they be unhappy, but you think I should be happy?"

"I bought a paddy field for 500 yuan that will not grow food in the future. Am I losing money or gaining it? How long will it cost [-] yuan for the three of us in our family? What should I do if the fields for farming are gone?"

Chen Zhiguo, who was squeezed into a corner, suddenly exploded. He held down the old branch secretary, pinned him down to prevent him from moving, and then talked about his own affairs.

The village party secretary frowned immediately after hearing his words, but he still said forcefully: "The route has not yet been determined, and the technicians are still testing. Where did you get the news that all of your five acres of paddy fields have been taken? And even if they are all taken, you can't take a pole to the brigade to threaten people. What the hell, you are a bandit!"

"Old party secretary, it's been spread in the village. The route is said to have been decided long ago! According to the route they said, I really don't have an acre of paddy fields left. Old party secretary, I can't live without land. The rest is dry land. What can I eat!"

As Chen Zhiguo was talking, a big man actually started to cry.

The old branch secretary was stunned. He didn't expect that Chen Zhiguo was so aggressive just now, but now he kept crying. The old branch secretary didn't know what to do, so he could only help Chen Zhiguo to sit down, and at the same time took the pole from his hand.

Chen Song looked at them, raised his eyebrows, and tapped his fingers on the table.

"Second Grandpa, the route of our road has not been decided yet, right? Why do so many people know about it?"

Chen Song tapped the table lightly to know the route between Chenjia'ao and Yangjiacun, but as the leader of the county people's congress, he emphasized on one aspect. After deliberation, the route is the most suitable for the distance between the two villages, and it is also the most in line with the terrain and the cost of road construction.

Although minor adjustments may be made during the actual road construction process, in general, the route will probably not change.

Moreover, this route should still be kept secret, and surveyors should be required to conduct two or three measurements to see if it can achieve the desired effect after the first measurement at the time of the proposal, otherwise fine-tuning will be required.

It can only be fine-tuned. After all, the plan has been reported, and the road can only be repaired in strict accordance with the approval.

"I only found out about the route yesterday. I only knew that it would be between our village and Yangjia Village. I don't know where the news leaked from."

The old party secretary also felt that something was wrong.

Chen Song looked at Chen Zhiguo: "Then tell me, where did you get the information about the line?"

The specific road construction routes are kept secret before the compensation is made. I am afraid that some people will deliberately plant cash crops in advance if they know that their land will be expropriated, and use it to defraud more agricultural compensation.

In this day and age, this thing is not uncommon!Therefore, if compensation for demolition is necessary for many projects, the information will be strictly kept until the matter is determined and the compensation calculation will be delayed before it is released to tell everyone the specific scope of requisition and demolition.

"I didn't know, I think everyone is saying that's the case!"

Although Chen Zhiguo was quite ruthless just now, when he was talking to Chen Song, he didn't dare to question or answer loudly anymore, like a mouse meeting a cat.

Probably because he knew before that Chen Song was not a good match, and his force value was high, so he couldn't get cheap, so he simply admitted it!
"Second Grandpa, it seems that this matter needs to be investigated!"

Chen Song stood up: "It seems that someone peeked at the road map planned for Second Grandpa's county-level road construction yesterday. Not only did he peek at it, but he also told the big guys. I guess the big guys on this road today should be busy planting fruit trees and crops!"

"What, how is this possible? I put all this document in the cabinet yesterday! I always carry the keys with me!"

The old party secretary exclaimed, subconsciously retorting.

"Second Grandpa, think about it, who else entered your office yesterday?"

Chen Song looked at the drawer and lock that the old party secretary pointed to. It was just an ordinary old wooden drawer with an old-fashioned rusty iron lock.

"Yesterday... I was in the office. I shouldn't... No, Cuifang came to me yesterday and said that the technicians came. I went to greet those technicians. I went out for more than ten minutes on the way."

The old branch secretary suddenly remembered this.

"Cuifang, is it Aunt Cuifang?" Chen Song narrowed his eyes slightly in disbelief.
