Chapter 2219

Su Xinghui's words stunned the old farmers again. Yes, why didn't they feel it was hard to leave their native land at that time? They were all very happy after moving to Jingbao Village. How could they not be happy? Shi Quan Township didn't have any good land, but Jingbao Village had fertile farmland!

The old farmer said: "At that time, my parents didn't want to move to Jingbao Village. Later, it was considered responding to the Chairman's call, so they were willing to move to Jingbao Village."

Su Xinghui said: "Several grandpas, were you very young at that time?"

The old farmer nodded: "Yes, I wasn't even thirty at that time."

Su Xinghui's words actually let everyone hear the meaning. At that time, these old people were still very young, so they dared to think and dare to break through, and didn't feel it was hard to leave their native land. But now, they were old, so they felt it was hard to leave their native land.

In fact, this is the stubbornness after getting old, there is no reason at all.

But could they be stubborn in front of Su Xinghui? How many things did this young County Magistrate in front of them do for them? It can be said that every common person in Chongjin County had received Su Xinghui's great kindness, and even in this old farmer's house, there was Su Xinghui's longevity tablet.

Everyone was silent. They felt ashamed of Su Xinghui!

Su Xinghui said: "More than thirty years ago, reclaiming land from the lake was necessary. At that time, there were many people and little land, and everyone couldn't get enough to eat. Reclaiming land from the lake allowed us to support many more people. Everyone has merit, and I can also understand everyone's feelings for this land."

"However, times have changed. Now reclaiming land from the lake no longer fits the situation. Reclaiming land from the lake can now be said to have more disadvantages than advantages. Does everyone know why the flood water level this year is so high? In fact, the reason is very simple. We have reduced the area of the lake so much, the water has nowhere to go, can the water level not be high? Can our low-lying terrain here not be flooded?"

Su Xinghui's words were deafening. The truth he said was very simple, and everyone could understand it. Yes, what is a lake? A lake is a place to hold water. If there are fewer places to hold water, the water has nowhere to go. Isn't it all going into the river and lake, raising the water level? Isn't it going to flood such low-lying places?

In fact, those staff members who came to do mobilization work also said this truth, but what they said was just not as good as what County Magistrate Su said. Su Xinghui's words, these farmers could listen to, but they couldn't listen to the staff's words.

"This time, the Party Central Committee's policy is a good policy. This return of farmland to lakes increases the area of Yanglan Lake. The water has a place to go, so the water level of the Yangtze River will not be so high in the future. That jingle of 'two disasters every three years' will never be said again, and everyone doesn't have to repair the embankment every year. Isn't this a good thing?"

"In this Jingbao Village, how many houses collapsed in this year's flood? If the house is soaked by water like this every year, can it not collapse? Even if it doesn't collapse this year, as long as it goes on like this, it may collapse next year, and it may collapse the year after. Can everyone live here with peace of mind?"

"As long as everyone is willing to relocate, in another month or two, the commercial housing and affordable housing in the new district of the county will be built. Everyone can receive compensation from the state, the province, and the county, and can directly live in the new district. Those are new buildings, spacious and bright. Doesn't everyone want to live in new buildings?"

"As for everyone's livelihood, there is even less need to worry. Those with labor in the family can go directly to the Economic Development Zone to work. Those without labor in the family are five-guarantee households. The county government can issue a minimum living security allowance every year. The county government will absolutely not let anyone go hungry. As long as they are willing to work, the future will definitely get better and better."

"What else does everyone have to worry about? If everyone still has things to worry about, you can ask me and find me to solve them. If there is corruption, you can also tell me. Everyone wouldn't even not believe me, Su Xinghui, right?"

Speaking of this, Su Xinghui swept his eyes over everyone. His eyes were bright. Those who were swept by him lowered their heads. In front of Su Xinghui, they all felt ashamed!

After a long while, the old farmer who came first said: "County Magistrate Su, don't say any more, I agree to move. You let the people in the county come over, and I will sign that agreement immediately."

Another old farmer said: "County Magistrate Su, my schistosomiasis was cured by you. I believe in you, you won't harm us, I will also sign."

The oldest old farmer said: "I will also sign, I can't make County Magistrate Su difficult. Everyone in the village must sign, whoever doesn't sign, I will beat them."

Everyone agreed to sign the relocation agreement one after another, and the crowd was excited. Su Xinghui looked at this scene and smiled with relief.

For such things, as long as a breakthrough is made, the subsequent things will be easy to handle. Everything is difficult at the beginning, and people have a herd mentality. Seeing that the people in Jingbao Village have all signed the agreement, more people will sign the agreement immediately. Are they afraid that the good houses will be occupied by the people in Jingbao Village first?

An old farmer looked at the green rice in the rice field and hesitated: "County Magistrate Su, if we move away now, won't the late rice in the field be a pity? It grows so well, the harvest of this late rice this year will not be bad."

Su Xinghui smiled and said: "Grandpa, no, the return of farmland to lakes is not that fast. We still have to repair the original embankment. Returning farmland to lakes is not turning the whole county into a lake. The houses in the new district also need a month or two to be built. It is estimated that you will move after you harvest this crop of late rice."

Su Xinghui's words made everyone happy all of a sudden. They didn't want to move before, also because they were worried about the late rice in the field. In their lifetime, this was the first time they didn't have to pay agricultural tax and retention and coordination. If they couldn't even harvest this season of late rice, it would be too pitiful.

An old farmer said: "County Magistrate Su, then can we move wherever we want?"

Su Xinghui said: "In principle, yes. Moving to the new district is the county government's plan. Only by moving there can you receive subsidies from the state and provincial governments. I calculated that if you buy affordable housing, you basically don't have to spend money, and you can even get a sum of money. If you buy commercial housing, you only need to make up a sum of money yourself, which is not much. If everyone can't take it out, the county government can also help you with loans."

Su Xinghui's words made everyone even happier. Now that they agreed to sign the agreement, their knots were also untied. They couldn't help but start discussing what kind of house they should buy. Some wanted to buy affordable housing, and they could also get a sum of money.

But some people wanted to buy commercial housing, because they heard from the staff that the area of affordable housing was limited, and the conditions were not as good as commercial housing. Then it would be better to buy a set of commercial housing, so that the whole family could live more spaciously and comfortably.

Watching everyone discussing enthusiastically, a big stone in Su Xinghui's heart fell to the ground. If these farmers were too stubborn, they couldn't be forced. Even if they turned around after a while, the time would be delayed.

It seems that there is no problem with the return of farmland to lakes and the relocation of residents to build towns. Su Xinghui can go to Beijing to attend the National Flood Fighting and Emergency Rescue Summary and Commendation Conference with peace of mind.
