Therefore, when Zhang Yan promoted the implementation of this matter from top to bottom at the government level, the difficulty of this kind of project no longer existed.

After all, it's not because Huaxia doesn't cultivate this kind of thing because it can't be cultivated, but because those who want to cultivate are incapable, and those who are capable don't want to cultivate.

At most, there will be a huge project limit, but this is not a problem at all in Lujiang, where the population is now abundant.

According to the records in the designed drawings, the Shennong Canal in the wild will be like a man-made river network. When the precipitation in the Lujiang River is abnormal, all the accumulated water in the farmland in the entire Lujiang River will be drained out. Merge with each other, and finally pour into the Huaihe River in the north of Lujiang River.

Of course, it's not that Zhang Yan didn't think about draining the accumulated water to the Yangtze River in the south.It's just that at this time, the Yangtze River is still in the hands of Danyang County in the east. If he doesn't want to go beyond the distance, there is no way to find the water inlet of the Yangtze River in Lujiang.

Fortunately, the Huaihe River is not too bad. As long as this water conservancy system can operate smoothly, it is estimated that the grain output of Lujiang River will continue to increase a lot this summer and autumn.

After the "Shennong Canal" field system in Lujiang is completed, the next step is to lay waterways underground in the entire Anhui City, which is the "provincial city" of Lujiang.

This step is likely to excavate and rebuild all the roads in the entire city. Therefore, although the construction area is slightly smaller than that of the field system, the construction volume of the sewer in the urban area may not be a star and a half smaller than the first phase of the project.

In addition, Zhang Yan and Wei Xian have been thinking about building the sewers so tall that a man can walk in the sewers... This is a bit scary, and it also tests the diligence of the working people in Lujiang.

It's just that although these various projects seem very attractive, in the final analysis, they have nothing to do with Zhang Yan, or they are not something he can directly experience.

In most cases, Zhang Yan either stays at his own home, or wanders among several government departments in Lujiang. I will go down to the farmland specifically for this purpose to experience a thing or two.

Perhaps these bit by bit changes, if experienced from his perspective, will eventually be reflected in a number such as the change in grain production in Lujiang.

As for those who can really feel this change in person, it is the common people and ordinary people who live in Lujiang.

Chapter 53 This money...who wouldn't want it

"Boom!"

……

"Boom!"

……

Early the next morning, old man Li was disturbed by loud voices again.

Only this time, what woke him up was no longer the soldiers who got up early in the morning to train, but a construction team composed of all kinds of workers and craftsmen.

Rubbing the corners of his eyes sleepily, the old man Li yawned, turned around and looked out the window, saw that it was getting brighter, so he didn't go back to sleep, but got up, took a towel and scrubbed indiscriminately, Then he turned around and carried a hoe, and walked out with the somewhat worn-out bucket in the corner.

These knocking construction teams outside the door have been busy for almost a decade.

For some unknown reason, the prefect actually ordered that all the streets and alleys in Wancheng should be refurbished, and this refurbishment was not the same as what Old Man Li had understood before. The streets of the entire Wancheng were demolished from south to north.

Knock on the third street today, and knock on the fifth road tomorrow.When it started early yesterday morning, old man Li found that the team had been dismantled to his door by carrying hammers and shovels.

It's just that since he already had some impressions of the new Lujiang prefect, old man Li is not worried about the other party messing around.

Anyway, it wasn't his money that was spent, as long as the demolished roads could be rebuilt on schedule as the other party said, then he didn't care what kind of means these people used.

I heard from those who lived in the north of the city that this time the prefect not only rebuilt the roads in Wancheng, but also widened some roads that were too narrow.

For example, on some main roads running through the south and north of the city, many people living on the side of the road have sent them news, saying that their house was occupied by the prefect's plan to build roads, and was blocked by the Wancheng Civil Affairs Bureau. The Department directly expropriated the past.

At the very beginning, these people were a little worried.

After all, the house and the land were all accumulated by myself, and it was not a small amount.If the prefect directly confiscated their land and houses, then their originally stable life would have many problems.

However, to the surprise of these people, although this "forced expropriation" did happen, the process of this forced expropriation seems to be very different from what they imagined.

……

"For citizens who own houses and land ownership in the demolition area, the land will be recovered by the Lujiang government at an additional [-]% of the current Lujiang land market price, and the houses will be replaced with houses in Chengnan New District at a ratio of [-]:[-] based on the area."

"Besides, people whose homes have been demolished can go to the demolition office of the Civil Affairs Bureau to receive compensation for demolition and resettlement in different amounts according to the number of family members. The largest family with more than seven people can even receive more than [-] yuan!"

……

There is no doubt that this money is used by the municipal government of Lujiang to subsidize the people whose houses and land have been expropriated.

Whether it is moving or buying some daily necessities, there is a cost, and the current Lujiang municipal government is willing to bear this part of the cost for the people.

Even for those families with a large population, such a sum of money is already equivalent to about half a year's income of an adult man, which is a real huge sum of money.

Under the government's money offensive, the demolition of houses occupying the core road land hardly encountered any decent resistance, and it was carried out smoothly.

In fact, this is the case. The land in this city is not arable, and the municipal government of Lujiang has actually given them compensation. Even some people who have a land complex can use this compensation to buy Others in the city, such as the land that the aristocratic family put up for sale.

As for the houses to live in... Who doesn't know that the houses in Chengnan New District are all new houses built just last year, and they are spacious?

If there is a chance to move there, then there is nothing to be nostalgic for such an old man.

All in all, under the influence of such policies, the thinking of those people living on the roadside in the old city has changed from fear of demolition to desire for demolition.There are even some old women who are not young, and they discuss with their parents all day long that the Zhang family has been occupied by another three pieces of land, and the Li family has been divided into two apartments.

Although he didn't say it clearly, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that everyone was looking forward to it, waiting for the day when Lujiang could take over their old house.

As for Old Man Li himself...

He carried the hoe, smiled wryly, then turned and looked in the direction of his home.

As a native of Lujiang of the older generation, his house is not much different from that of Laopoxiao.But unlike those people who live near the main road, although his house is close to the city, it is not adjacent to the street, so the chance of being demolished and occupied is very small.

Fortunately, although it is very likely that there will be no chance to live in a spacious and bright mansion in this life, old man Li is not young anymore, and he is the only old man in the family.Therefore, although it may not be so convenient to live in, it can't be said to affect life.

Now the old man has a family of four, and his daughter unfortunately disappeared outside the city during the civil strife in Lujiang a few years ago.

Just as I said before, Lujiang at that time was not as stable as it is now, and there was no law and order at all.

It is very common for a young girl to disappear outside the city, or be murdered and thrown into the river the next day.

As for the other members of his family, his son had grown up some time ago, so he went to Laozhou Laiguo to become a craftsman two days ago, his wife was an ordinary female worker in a textile factory in Lujiang, and the old man I still have a few small fields in my hand, so this life can still be said.

Even if there is no big happy event like demolition falling on his head, there is no problem in maintaining a stable life.

It's just that the old man pinched his fingers and said it again.

My son is already grown up now, and he hasn't got a marriage yet, so he just thinks about how to spend money all day long.

Not to mention that any girl from the right family can fall in love with them, seeing his son hang out with those big and three rough men day and night, old man Li is even a little scared, afraid that his son is so different from normal people Same.

This money... who doesn't want it.

If the house of his own family is taken, how many old men can exchange for a big house with half an acre of land, plus the land compensation of less than [-] to [-] yuan, these family backgrounds probably won’t even tell their son a marriage What's the problem.

Looking back at the gate of his house again, old man Li was silent for a while, then shook his head, and walked towards a stall at the entrance of the alley.

……

"Oh, come on. It's a bad day, isn't it the same?"

Chapter 54 Son of Fayan, Grandson of Fazhen

Although not at the same time, it is the same stall.

Old man Li was sitting on the stool at the small stall near the entrance of the alley at the moment, holding a big bowl in his hand, which still contained the familiar bowl of Shu rice.

The only difference from last year is that since the three members of Mr. Li's family now have their own income, they don't have to rely on him to raise them alone. The living conditions are much better than before.

Let’s just say that this Shu rice is no longer as simple as mixing it with lard.Not only did he have two extra eggs in his bowl, but there was even a small yellow croaker as a decoration.

This is still in the slack time.

If it was the busy season of summer and autumn, the old man would even be able to eat steak once or twice, and that would be something that he had been longing for all along.

But now, with a big bowl in his hand, he didn't say much, just like this, while eating breakfast silently, listening to the chatting of the customers in the stall with his ears open.

This stall can now be regarded as not what it used to be.

As early as last year, although the location of this small stall was considered to be close to the city center, since the common people didn’t have much spare money, the store didn’t provide too extravagant things, most of them were simple bean rice and wheat cakes And so on, to provide a bite of food for a family who is not good at cooking.

At that time, most of the people who were willing to eat here were the children of workers and peasants similar to Old Man Li.

Now, a year has passed, and the small stall can also be said that the times have changed.

Since the geographical location here is very close to the "landmark building" library in Lujiang, a large number of aristocratic or poor families have recently moved into the houses nearby.

Regardless of whether these scholars have money or not, they still like to pay attention to some face.In addition, there are many foreign scholars in Lujiang now who leave home alone to study, so for their own convenience, this stall naturally became popular because of this.

The old man looked up at the busy store, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth inexplicably.

Maybe this store is no longer remembered, but during the whole year of last year, the food crisis that worried the old man the most did not appear. This also means that the current ruling government of Lujiang is not a group of idiots, and it is still worth his visit trust.

It is also related to this reason that they are willing to let the engineering teams of these governments tear down and build roads near their own doorsteps.

Today, the menu of this stall is much richer than before. Some simple steamed meat or vegetables have been served by the store.

At this moment, many scholars are eating what is in their bowls, while thinking about which book they have not finished reading before today.

What's more, his eyes didn't forget to look around, as if he was watching the people from the engineering team digging wildly in the alley, and he didn't know if he was watching the excitement or what.

……

"Hey, look, they have dug a lot further today. I'm afraid they are going to hollow out the entire alley."

……

"Hey, what do you know? All the streets in Wancheng are nine-horizontal and nine-vertical, as long as they can pass a carriage, they are all dug up by these people. What is this small alley?"

"If you want me to say, you live near here, so you don't know the situation."

"This alley is close to the city, and it's a place where the construction started quite late. For example, the courtyard of our Qiao family had dug up the entire street four or five days ago, and it was full of more than one person. deep!"

"Now they are laying bricks and filling stones inside. Thousands of big men gather together. That's a lively scene!"

……

Near the door, two young men dressed as scholars were eating something from a bowl while chatting about the demolition progress of the engineering teams not far away.

One of them was dressed more luxuriously, he seemed to be a native of Lujiang, he was happily talking to his companion, and it was unknown how the two met.

Beside them, there are quite a few scholars at this moment, although most of them have a look of indifference on their faces, but they are silently eavesdropping.

Especially after hearing that this luxuriously dressed man was from the Qiao family, everyone's expressions became even more solemn.

It's just a pity... In many cases, fame may not be useful.

Although most scholars who have lived in Lujiang for a period of time will have heard of the Qiao family and the Zhou family, two hundred-year-old families that have been lingering in Lujiang... But for some newcomers or stunned youths, this name Obviously it didn't work as it should.

……

"Dig a pit as deep as one person, and still use bricks and stones to pad the bottom of the pit??"

"Didn't you just say that this group of people are tearing down the original roads for road construction... What's the point of digging a foundation as deep as one person to build a road?"
