Long years (145)

The bright light now is not the bright light it used to be.

We have known each other since we were young. Now it seems that the positions of Fourth Master and Lin Yutong have been dismissed. But to be honest, Mingguang's current position is not low. From the director of the commune, to the deputy county, county, and then to the city.

He once served as mayor, and now he is the executive deputy governor. In terms of power, he is not a small official. Is the second-in-command of the provincial government a small official?

The levels are the same, and even the rights are different.

It's just that he is now facing relegation to the second line, and his age has reached the upper limit. The fourth master and Lin Yutong are in their prime. If there are no accidents, they still have more than twenty years of political life.

Taking into account the current level, where will it go in the future?

These are things that I dare not even think about.

Therefore, everyone labels Ming Guang as Si Ye and Lin Yutong, rather than labeling the two as Ming Guang.

However, the relationship between the two is recognized as being very close.

But how did the Taiping Town incident involve a provincial official?

Demolition?

If Taiping Town wants to demolish it, it will not be possible in the short term.

Of course, the people below don't know, and many people are actually planning to demolish it.

The old commune at that time was later relocated, and the remaining old houses in the old yard were all divided into pieces and sold off before there was any news of demolition.

When Qingfeng asked Lao San to buy a yard, he bought this area. He was interested in the bungalows built at that time, so he could save money on building a house.

It's this area that has the problem.

When it came to buying and selling houses in rural areas, it was rare to get homestead certificates and other things that could be obtained at that time. The contract was written and the middleman provided guarantee. If this is indeed the case, then it would be fine. The person lives first.

As for the formalities and documents, just take your time. Sometimes it's a village, and the village will come forward to handle these things together.

This is true for private transactions, and there is no problem with integrity. They are not valuable things anyway. You cannot be a liar.

Just imagine, this is the same when buying and selling houses with private individuals. This is the same as buying and selling houses in the town. Are you afraid that the procedures will not be completed, or that you are cheating?

After paying the money and writing the contract, that's all.

The town didn't ask for so much money and land, so they started making trouble with the masses.

But there is a very old problem here, that is, someone reported it, saying that there was misappropriation of collective assets.

Then this is a big problem.

Why is it involved in embezzling collective assets?

At that time, the old commune had a cotton station in front and behind it. It was a site for purchasing cotton. At that time, this purchasing station was a relatively wealthy unit. There were two-story buildings and many bungalows inside.

.

The commune at that time was just a shabby courtyard.

It must have been that year of 1976, when it rained continuously for more than forty days, and all the autumn grain that year rotted in the ground. The dilapidated yard and house of the commune could not stand it at all. And the director of the commune at that time

Mingguang said that he would borrow a two-story building from the cotton station to temporarily use it as an office location. The commune really had no money at that time, and the cotton station really couldn't use such a big place.

At that time, the cotton station was also under the control of the commune. It was not a big deal to borrow a place.

It was decided that the commune was moved inside the cotton station. In order to facilitate office work, the large iron gate of the cotton station was removed, and there was a large square when entering. At that time, the local people knew what was going on.

Later, with the marketization, cotton stations, like the supply and marketing cooperatives at that time, slowly withdrew from the stage of history. Old employees stopped going to work, or simply bought out their seniority. A huge cotton station became empty.

Then the commune naturally made use of those idle houses.

Those who work in a commune can basically allocate a dormitory, an office or a conference room.

There is no need to crowd into such a spacious place.

As time goes by, not many people know about what happened back then. The commune has changed its secretary and mayor every few years. Who wants to settle the old accounts?

Later, I even disliked the houses here as they were too old, dark, and some old files had become damp. So they all moved. On the side of the road leading from the town to the county seat, a piece of saline-alkali land that was originally wasteland was designated as a new site.

The new location of the town government was established. Immediately afterwards, the police station, power station, tax office, etc. that were close to the commune were all relocated. A long stretch was built next to the new town government. And my husband

This place in the club is completely idle.

Later, instead of leaving it idle and abandoned, it is better to sell it, which is a good thing.

But who would have thought that Taiping Town would one day be demolished?!

Demolition means lots and lots of compensation.

Of course, these are all rumors.

But the people below didn't believe this was a rumor. Anyway, each one told me more clearly than the other.

Issues left over from history are nothing to worry about. But there is a problem involved. Did the old commune harm the interests of some people by selling its houses?

Whose interests?

Those who did not buy out their seniority at the cotton station have been living half-dead for the benefit of retired or not-yet-retired employees.

They have no place to work, but public services are still available. Wages cannot be paid, so everyone has gone home to work in the fields.

But things are different now. The old cotton station is collectively owned, and employees like them have a share. If it is demolished, they are the ones who deserve the most compensation.

But your town government secretly sold things that didn't belong to you without our consent, and we didn't see the money you divided.

Why?

In fact, ever since the town government sold the commune, workers from the cotton station went to the Letters and Complaints Bureau in the provincial capital to report the problem. From that time to now, it has been more than a year, and there has been no explanation. It is illegal.

Even though so many people died in the demolition, no adverse news related to Mingguang came out. Otherwise, Mingguang would not have called Fourth Master to intercede for his old subordinates.

In other words, the □□ department did not treat this matter as a matter to be handled.

how to say?

Well, it's hard to define.

Especially when it comes to issues in Wenge. Things from back then cannot be undone anymore.

But who knows? Just such a letter that has been shelved by the government department will be dug out by someone who is interested.

To uncover an old case from decades ago, the target was Ming Guang, the director of the commune at the time.

Mingguang called Fourth Master and said, "I don't even know where the evil wind started."

The fourth master was holding a piece of information provided by the third son, who were the families who purchased the land in the commune for homesteading at that time.

The trouble is, a total of sixteen households were sold, half of which were related to Fourth Master and Mingguang.

The first one is Qingfeng. Qingfeng spent 10,000 yuan, and Lao San helped with this matter. It wasn't a big deal at first, but it might be a big deal at this time.

The second one is Lao Wu. Lao Wu bought a yard there to collect scraps and use it as a scrap collection station.

The third one is Wu Da. Lin Yutong knows that Zhao Aihua sometimes takes his grandchildren back to his hometown to live. After all, the housing in the city is a bit crowded. Besides, people are all about returning to their roots after falling leaves, and they must have a place to stay in their hometown. At that time, Jin

The half-sized yard next to our old house is too crowded.

The fourth one is Zheng Youyou. Regardless of whether you recognize him or not, he is the fourth master’s biological cousin. He has no son, the eldest daughter is his biological son, and the younger daughter was adopted back then. He hired a son-in-law for the eldest daughter, and the younger daughter.

He does not plan to marry far away. The person he is talking about is from this village. He bought a yard for his little girl just so that the child can be close to him.

Then further down are Mingguang’s relatives.

Qian Cuicui was the girl who worked as a temporary worker with Tongtong when raising pigs. Later she became a full-time worker and became the director of the pig factory.

She has a house in the county town, but she has been in the town for a long time, so she bought a yard in the town. She specifically chose a house with fewer houses and more open space. She grew vegetables and flowers at home, which she felt was more beautiful than living in the county town.

There is also her brother Qian Jinbao, who, like her, has settled in the town. In addition, there are Qian Jinbao's brother-in-law and Qian Cuicui's sister-in-law. They are all from the city, because Taiping Town is close to the county seat.

Nowadays, the roads are good and it only takes a few dozen minutes to get there by bicycle. I feel that growing and choosing vegetables is no more troublesome than going to the vegetable market.

The remaining eight families are more or less related to Murakami or the leaders of the commune.

There may not necessarily be corruption here, after all, it costs money. The yard of a bungalow in Qingfeng only cost 10,000 yuan, and those with two-story buildings could not get it without 30,000 yuan. This requires real money.

silver.

It's not that many people didn't fancy the place, but they just couldn't afford that kind of money.

For someone like Qingfeng, even if he couldn't get it out at the time, his third uncle would advance it for him.

If you have three or two capable relatives who can spare money, you won't let good opportunities slip away from you.

But if you use this to check, there is no need to check, just mark the relationship between so and so, everyone will definitely think that there is something wrong here. Even those with a dark mentality will speculate, saying whether the fourth master and Mingguang knew in advance

When the news came that they were going to be demolished, I deliberately pulled out my own family members.

Especially the Jin family, you see, the elder’s family has one yard, the fifth’s family has another yard, even the former stepson of the fifth has a yard, and then there is the cousin...

But the conscience of heaven and earth, if this matter was not such a big deal, Fourth Master would not have cared about it at all, let alone know about it in advance.

If others really think about this, this will definitely be a big deal.

It is easy to cause public anger.

Fourth Master told Mingguang: "No matter how this evil trend started, the key to the problem is to close this loophole from the root."

Flies don't bite seamless eggs, so now we have to fill the gaps first, and then check, where did this fly come from?

But now everyone knows that houses and land will be very valuable if they are to be demolished, and this craze is getting hotter and hotter.

The Fourth Master said: "No demolition..." His eyes were dark, "Taiping Town can be traced back to the Sui Dynasty. During the Tang Dynasty, it was an important border defense town. During the Ming Dynasty, a city wall was built. The city wall was not built until the Wenge period.

Destroyed. Now, the development zone has developed tourism, so why should Taiping Town be demolished? Restore the appearance of the ancient town and develop tourism. Aren't there many people who think that the demolition should not be done, fearing that they will be left with nothing after the demolition. Now

We will not demolish it. If tourism is done well, it will be a cornucopia. It is also a long-term solution."

No demolition?

Things turned out to be easier to handle.
