People live in the Ming Dynasty, evil spirits are soaring into the sky

Chapter 455: Do whatever it takes to get compensation!

As soon as the villagers said this, it immediately resonated with many people.

Someone stood up and said, “That’s right, if we can’t throw away all our fields and land, then we’d rather not build this road.

Why should one or two families get such great benefits?

I don’t know how much money you are going to give us, but if you give us so much money and we don’t get any, isn’t that unfair?”

In this case, we would rather not repair this road because we are living a good life now.

Don't let this matter make everyone feel unbalanced.

It makes everyone feel uncomfortable, don’t you think?

Those who clearly might not receive compensation, people immediately began to agree.

"You're right, we'd rather not."

Of course, they were the ones shouting the loudest because they were sure they would not receive any compensation.

It seems that everyone wants to put all their grievances, dissatisfactions, and complaints about this matter into this slogan.

We don’t want that. We don’t want everyone in the village to make a fuss over this matter.

Good guy.

What a great guy.

The people in the martial arts world who were listening on the side began to shake their heads and smile bitterly.

I've never seen anyone so shameless.

Obviously, it is impossible for my family to compensate him, but I want to use a high-sounding reason to ruin this matter.

Since I can't have it, no one should have it either.

This way I can feel more or less at ease.

This made those people who were about to get compensation very anxious.

Because if that happened, their family’s only chance to make a fortune would be gone.

So these dozen families immediately stood up.

"We have been neighbors for more than ten years, and our ancestors are all from the same family. How can you make all of us get no compensation just because of such a small amount of compensation? You also want to cancel the road that was originally built to the entrance of our village? This is too much."

"Shouldn't we all discuss this together?"

"What are we negotiating about? What is there to discuss? The result of the discussion is that you families may get compensation, but we don't. What is there to discuss?"

The blind man on the other side of the millstone heard it clearly.

He couldn't help laughing, because this is human nature, this is naked human nature.

And it's still so ironic.

We were just discussing how to get this compensation.

How can we avoid receiving compensation but not getting it in our hands?

Some people even worried that if they went to the government to ask for compensation, they would be accused of rebelling and their entire family would be killed or exiled.

After the blind man and the Jianghu man answered these questions, they immediately started discussing the next topic.

That is whether everyone can be compensated.

The blind men made it clear that it was impossible that only those whose fields and land were occupied and those whose houses were demolished would be compensated. This was a matter of course and there was no way to change it.

This has really stirred up a hornet's nest.

When the villagers all knew that this time Guo Feixue and others were really going to give the common people some compensation, they began to have other ideas.

Because they know very well that this compensation cannot be given to everyone.

It is impossible for everyone to have a share in land acquisition, so they started to have other ideas.

For example, all the land of everyone should be confiscated.

In this way, I can get some compensation.

For example, let those whose land has been expropriated take out money and share it among everyone.

This can also make everyone feel a little more balanced.

In a nutshell, it's impossible for your family to get so much compensation.

It is also impossible for your family to become rich overnight while we just watch from the sidelines.

It is like this in rural areas. They would rather everyone be poor than allow anyone to get rich first.

After we become rich, if you don't give us money, we will resent you.

This is a very realistic problem.

That’s why this matter cannot be negotiated.

They might actually do something extreme.

For example, they are not allowed to build the pipeline to the gate of their village.

Some people even said directly that they would rather not have a road built at the entrance of their village than not give them compensation.

In fact, Blind Man has heard a lot of such things during his years of wandering around the world.

There are many places where a bridge needs to be built.

It was originally a good thing to connect the two sides of the river.

But people were very uncomfortable because of the issue of which household the bridge should be built at, or which village entrance the bridge should start from.

The construction had to start at the entrance of a village, because someone had already built a wooden bridge at that entrance. If we built a stone bridge, there would be no need to waste manpower and resources by temporarily building a wooden bridge.

However, people on the other side disagree.

The villagers on the other side of the river thought that if the bridge was built to the gate of their village, then all people would pass through their village gate. Whether they wanted to do business or people could rest along the way, all the money would go to that village.

No.

Then if I repair it to the middle, will it be okay? That won’t be good either.

Because if you repair the middle one, the first crossing path will be much larger, which is not cost-effective.

And repairing it would waste a lot of manpower and resources.

After so much arguing, the bridge couldn't be repaired.

This is a typical case.

The same is true for the road we are currently building.

Originally, a road was built to the village entrance to facilitate everyone's travel.

But because of the need for compensation, the repair cannot continue.

There was no compensation before, and the villagers hoped that the houses of the 19 households at the entrance of the village would be removed and their land occupied.

But now that there is compensation, it’s different.

Once there is compensation, those people at the entrance of the village whose houses and land have been occupied and demolished may receive compensation.

What will they do when their family becomes rich?
This mentality is tormenting these villagers.

When there is no benefit, the villagers can treat it with a smile.

But once interests are involved, that is no longer the case.

After hearing what these people said, the blind man sneered. Although the saint had good intentions, she probably didn't expect the villagers to be so hostile.

They can be very simple in their daily lives, and everyone sees that these villagers seem to be hardworking people.

He works hard in the fields all day long and has no other thoughts.

But if you really get to know them, you will find that this is not the case.

These people have a lot of cunning tricks, and their tricks are no less than those of those shrewd businessmen.

It’s just that they never had the opportunity to use these tricks before.

And now, with such an opportunity, they will fully seize it.

And they are quite skilled in using it.

They are so skilled that it makes people feel that these people have always been calculating in this way.

The people in the martial arts world saw that the villagers were still arguing fiercely at this time.

I was also very helpless because of this scene.

Just a bit of publicity has caused so much commotion.

If we really want to repair it and occupy the land where the house is, we really need to compensate in real money.

Wouldn't these people, who are blinded by bloodlust, cause countless murders?

I heard that the people below had already started attacking each other.

"You 19 families are the most shameless in the village. How many times have we had to divert the river because you disagreed, which is why our irrigation problem has never been solved?"

"For many years, it was because of the problem with the river that the harvest in the village was so small."

"Yes, originally the government wanted to make the river pass through your fields, but you started crying and wailing when they just took a little bit of your land. You sit on the ground and roll around all day long, have you forgotten all these things?
“The river was diverted to other villages, and now things are different.

We are going to build roads in your heaven and earth, and you will no longer look like this.

How come it is possible to occupy the land now when building roads, but not before when building rivers?”

As for the nineteen villagers, they were not given away for nothing, and they immediately said: "Oh, it's really easy to talk to you, it's really easy to talk without any pain in your waist.

When they were building the river in the past, there was no compensation for occupying our fields and land. Now there is compensation, so why shouldn’t we fight for it? We are willing to give it up.

Again, don't think you can stop it.

The Duke is now in our Jiangnan area. Haven’t he killed enough corrupt officials?

The smell of blood hasn't even dissipated yet, and you want to take the lead in openly violating the Duke's reforms?
I think your life has come to an end.”

I didn't expect these people to be quite knowledgeable.

It’s true that the common people here actually come into contact with quite a few businessmen all day long.

The official road along the way is not easy to walk on, but it is the only way.

Sometimes when it rains heavily, many merchants will take a break at the entrance of the village.

The land temple at the entrance of the village sometimes attracts many businessmen.

Some merchants would even move their goods that they could not sell in the city to the land temple to sell.

We chatted and heard a lot of strange stories.

Everyone knows that the Duke is a young but extraordinary figure.

The entire Jiangnan region was in disarray as a result of the killings, and those corrupt officials were wailing and begging for mercy.

So everyone knows that this Duke is very powerful now.

After hearing this, many villagers who were still arguing with each other immediately shut up.

They were really afraid that they would offend the Duke because of such an incident, and then be beheaded by the Duke using a guillotine.

The three bronze guillotines of the Duke are now as powerful as the three bronze guillotines of Justice Bao in the opera.

No one dared to shout publicly.

The villagers all knew that the three bronze guillotines were very powerful and had killed countless officials.

"Why are you afraid to speak now when you hear the Duke's three bronze guillotines? Where is the momentum you had when you took the lead in saying that we should build this road to the entrance of our village? It's gone now.

In the final analysis, you are still afraid of death, and in the final analysis, you still think that life is important.

Since life is important, money doesn't matter.

Although the compensation is a lot, that is also our luck. When luck comes, no one can stop it, not even you, so can't you just accept this fate obediently?"

Those dozen families used the Duke to suppress these greedy villagers. This method was quite useful and very effective.

When the villagers heard this, they all lowered their heads again.

Because no one dared to offend Chen Han at this time.

After hearing what they said, the people in Jianghu all winked and whispered, "Awesome, now you have seen how powerful it is.

Don't underestimate these ordinary farmers.

They can all say something surprising and make you dare not refute it.

They all bring up the Duke as an example, isn't that awesome?

If we don’t satisfy them, they will use the climate as an excuse to pressure us.”

The blind man shrugged after hearing this and said, "Don't talk about it now. We have the ability to make them afraid to say a word."

Everyone in the martial arts world looked at the blind man, "Sir, although you are eloquent and your mouth is better than that of a thrush, the matter at hand is not easy to resolve.

The villagers obviously want compensation to be shared by all. If there is no compensation, they will not be satisfied.

If we don't handle this matter well, it will be difficult to explain to the Saint.

Although this matter is not originally the business of us, people in the underworld, but people in the underworld value loyalty and integrity.

We have already promised to do this well, and if we fail to do it now, then it will be a loss of face. We will not be able to report to the girl, and we will not be able to report to the people in the martial arts world either."

When it comes to this, Jianghu Ren suddenly feels a lot of pressure on his shoulders.

After all, this matter was not originally hers, but because she promised Guo Feixue to promote it, she still had to work hard to complete it.

Moreover, this matter is challenging to implement, and they also want to challenge their abilities.

After hearing this, the blind man waved his hands and said, "I said I would not bring trouble to my colleagues, and that means I will not bring trouble to you. Just wait and see how I turn decay into magic."

Now everyone in the world was interested and wanted to see how he could settle the matter.

In fact, what needs to be dealt with is the greed of the common people.

Ordinary people are not interested in how much economic benefit a road can bring whether it is built or not.

They are interested in how much benefit it can bring to themselves.

Even if this road can play an extremely huge role in the future, connecting the north and the south, it will allow more merchants from all directions to come to Ningbo City to do business.

They were not interested in boosting Ningbo's economy, making it an important city in the south of the Yangtze River, or making all the people around it rich.

What they are interested in is this path and how much benefit it can bring to them.

How much compensation can we give after this road is built and occupies our fields and land?

It would be best if everyone could get the same amount of compensation, enough so that they don’t have to work anymore for the rest of their lives.

As for the rest, they are not interested...
