Very quickly.
Li Erniu followed Auntie Liu back to their house.
As soon as he walked to the door of his house, he heard many people talking.
He walked over and saw that a few officials from the Fuzhou government had arrived.
They held a piece of paper in their hands, stamped with the official seal, and then pasted it on the wall of the street.
Then, he said to all the commoners,"Everyone, take a good look. This is a new notice from our government.”
"The main announcement is that the area you are currently in is about to be demolished.”
Many commoners asked in confusion,""Sir, what do you mean by demolition?”
The official replied," The so-called demolition means that all the houses in your generation will be demolished and razed to the ground.”
Hearing this, everyone was shocked.
"What?"
"My lord! Where are we going to live if it's torn down!”
Looking at the terrified expressions of the commoners, the officials hurriedly said,"Let me finish first!"
"This piece of land of yours is going to be demolished, but there will be benefits for you.”
Hearing that there were benefits, the commoners stopped making a fuss and continued to listen to the officials.
"The government will compensate every household with silver.”
"As for how much money you get, it depends on the size of your house.”
"No matter how much your house is worth, our government will compensate you with more than double the amount!”
Hearing this.
Only then did all the commoners heave a sigh of relief. It was not impossible for them to accept silver as compensation.
They were afraid that this place would be forcefully taken over by the government and the commoners would not be able to get anything.
"But everyone has to sign after taking the money," the official continued.”
"From now on, your land belongs to the government.”
All the commoners nodded.
"No problem, sir. We accept.”
The official continued," If any of you don't want to leave and want to keep the place you're living in now, it's not impossible.”
"As long as there are too many people, the government won't demolish this piece of land.”
Who knew.
Hearing this, everyone was unhappy.
One by one, they shouted.
"No, sir. We are willing to tear down the houses here and exchange them for silver.”
"That's right. Anyway, we've been living in this house for decades. It's either windy or rainy. We might as well demolish this dilapidated house and exchange it for silver!”
"That's right. If anyone dares to disagree, everyone will break their legs and force the adults to tear down this land!”
He listened to the people happily saying that they supported the demolition.
The officials were also a little surprised. They did not expect this group of commoners to be so cooperative.
Other than the houses here, they were basically dilapidated.
Another reason was that the officials had just said that the compensation was more than double the original price of the house!
One had to know that in the early Ming Dynasty, houses were very cheap.
In general, two to three taels could buy more than 30 square meters.
Most of the ordinary families were about 60 square meters, and some were only 100 square meters.
According to this calculation.
The compensation for ordinary houses would not exceed fifteen taels per household.
This wasn't much to begin with.
However, in a poor area like Fuzhou, these commoners felt that they had profited!
With these ten taels of silver, where else could he not go to build a new house?
Must he go against the government?
What good was there in not agreeing to the demolition?
"Great!"
"Some time ago, I told my wife that as long as we earn ten taels of silver in the factory, we'll find someone to build a new house.”
"Now that the government has come forward and torn down this old house and exchanged it for silver, there might be a chance to buy a house in the community!”
"A house in a residential area? Then forget it!"
"That's right. Look at how many people in Fuzhou have been eyeing those repaired residential apartments recently.”
"Even if you want to buy it, it's not your turn, hahaha.”
"Yes, yes. How can such ordinary people live in such a luxurious apartment?”
"Even if I really want to, I'm afraid I'll have to wait a few more years. When more houses are built in Fuzhou Prefecture, I might have a chance.”
"Isn't it good to use this money to start a small business now?”
But at this moment.
When Li Erniu returned home, he only had one thing on his mind.
That was…
He wanted his family to live in a small apartment!
Although the neighbors had said that it was not easy to buy a house in this community.
But he still mustered up his courage.
He arrived in front of the officials.
"Sir, I have something to ask you.”
The other party glanced at him and said,"Ask away."”
"Sir," said Li Erniu. I would like to ask, what is the price of the new residential areas in Fuzhou?”
Li Erniu scratched his head and said foolishly.
"To be honest, I want to buy a new house for my family. I want to buy a small house.”
He had this idea before.
Originally, he thought that he had only been carrying bricks for a few months and only had about ten silver coins on him. He might not be able to buy it.
But now that the government wanted to demolish the houses here, they could get a sum of compensation. If they added it up, they might really have a chance to buy a new house in the community!
Hearing his question.
The other neighbors all looked over.
Although everyone said that they didn't have the ability to afford a house in the neighborhood, who wouldn't be tempted?
Therefore…
They also wanted to hear a price from the officials.
In the next second, all of them were stunned.
Because they heard something unexpected.
"You don't have to ask about the price," said the official.”
"According to the size of the house, the amount of compensation will be used as a mortgage.”
"The subsidy is about ten taels.”
Hearing this, Li Erniu's eyes lit up.
He shouted excitedly," Really? Official!"
The other commoners were also in an uproar.
"Oh my god! Am I dreaming?"
"In this way, it's no longer a dream for us to move into a house in the community!”
All the commoners were dumbfounded.
Never in their dreams did they expect that a newly built residential area could be exchanged for these dilapidated houses that they looked down on!
This was a good thing for them!
After the initial shock, their faces were filled with joy.
Some of them even cried in excitement.
"That's great, that's great! I've always dreamed of owning a house in a residential area, and now this wish is about to come true!”
"Sir, we don't want compensation and want to change to a house in the community. Is that okay?”
"Yes, yes, yes. Our family wants it too.”
They were afraid that if they were late, there would be no more spots, so they all rushed to speak.
"You all have the qualifications to exchange, but the exact time will have to wait for notification.”
Although the time had not been set, everyone was still very happy.
"Okay, okay, okay. Sir, we'll wait for the notice!”
Li Erniu and his neighbors were overjoyed.
Some people planned to use the money to exchange for a house in the community.
Some people still wanted to keep the money in their hands.
......
After this incident.
The government also went to other places in Fuzhou Prefecture to promote demolition.
The situation was exactly the same.
All the residents were very cooperative with the demolition work.
In some places, the people did not even receive the demolition notice. Instead, they shouted 'Lord Meng is a peerless good official' and requested that their houses be demolished!
