"Lu Di, something is wrong, the families behind the village who bought the homestead did not agree to sell it again, and they just found us and wanted to return the money to us. Li Weiguo said.
"Ah, what's the reason for this?" Lu Di asked in surprise.
"I feel like someone is behind it, and they are asking for a price increase, but we didn't agree, so we asked to cancel the contract. Qiu Shuo analyzed.
"Oh, that piece of land, if you remove these homesteads, it will become an irregular shape, and it will be nearly one-fifth less of the area. Lu Di came to the display board and looked at it.
"What then? We agree with them to raise the price? That's a habitual problem, and they may not come up with any bad tricks in the future. Li Weiguo said worriedly.
"I brought Brother Zhu to us to discuss and see the situation of the procedures and documents, if we can't change it, we can only admit that we are unlucky. Lu Di said and called Zhu Zixuan, and it didn't take long for Zhu Zixuan to come.
"It's okay, I have changed the law here, and it won't delay things, just the normal operation on your side, I don't think I can agree to their conditions. Zhu Zixuan said after listening to Li Weiguo's introduction.
"Then I'm relieved to get them a refund right away, then I'll fire their families and cancel their planting assignments for next year." Lu Di decided.
"Okay, we'll do it now, it's really not okay to keep them from suffering. Li Weiguo said.
"Deal with this matter calmly and don't conflict with them, after all, it's a village, and it doesn't hurt peace. Lu Di said.
"You know, we don't have the same knowledge as them. ”
Li Weiguo and Qiu Shuo immediately came out to meet the representatives of those families, and these people were all waiting in the restaurant, there were eight in all, all of them came, and some came two, a total of more than ten people.
"Village chief, have you finished discussing it, how did you decide, do you want to give us an increase in price?" asked a man in his fifties.
"Lao Zhang, Mr. Lu didn't agree to the price increase; she said that Qiu Ge has been very good to everyone in the past two years, you should be grateful, and now the price and conditions are not low, what do you think about again?" Li Weiguo still wanted to persuade.
"Hehe, don't mention these things in the past now, we admit to getting the benefits of Qiu Ge, but now we can't harm our own interests. ”
"Oh, well, all of you have this opinion, right? Do you have people who think differently?" asked Li Weiguo loudly.
No one answered, it seemed that they all wanted a high price, and they were quite in unison; Li Weiguo looked at Qiu Shuo, and both of them felt cold in their hearts.
"Alright then, you take the agreement we signed, go to the finance department and return the money, and then our contract will be null and void; Qiu Shuo said.
"You really don't want it?" someone asked.
"Okay, let's go quickly, we still have business, but if you don't return the money, we'll rip off the house." Li Weiguo said angrily, because it was originally scheduled to be relocated in April next year.
"Return, why don't you return, we can sell at a better price." Lao Zhang was the first to go out to finance, and the others followed.
It didn't take long for the eight families to return the money and the contract was terminated, and they were really happy to see them, because they left with a smile on their faces.
"Who is demolishing our platform?" Li Weiguo said.
"I don't think it's the gang in the provincial capital yet, and we don't need to worry, there will be news in a few days. ”
"Hehe, I'm afraid that these families can't calculate the people in the city, and they won't even be able to find a tone when they cry. Li Weiguo was worried.
"This is not something we can manage; let's go, the owner of the Yipin Fresh Sheep Soup Restaurant in the east of the village invites us to dinner, let's drink the mutton soup; Qiu Shuo said and stood up.
"Let's go, let's have two drinks, don't say it, their haggis soup and yours beef soup are really a fight, it tastes really good." ”
The two of them walked out of the courtyard together and walked eastward, chatting as they went.
"The boss is also a good person, he has a good relationship with everyone, and he is also kind. ”
"Which village is he from, his name is Yuan Xiang, right?"
"The people from Qingshan Town are called Yuan Xiang, and we have actually known each other for seven or eight years; one winter, when I went to the Qingshan Grain Depot to sell grain, I went to his sheep soup restaurant to eat, and when I was done eating, I didn't bring any money with me, and I didn't buy any grain, so I told him the truth; they didn't say a word, they told me what to do, what to do, and when I had it, I sent it when I thought about it, and I didn't forget it; since then we have known each other, and after selling the grain, I sent the money over, and I ate at his place again. ”
"Yo, what about such a thing? It's the first time I've heard you say about it. ”
"It's not a glorious thing, I haven't told anyone, but I didn't see that our place is booming, and the traffic is also large, so he came to me, so I helped him find a house, and he opened the store here. ”
"I said you always come here, it's so familiar. ”
"Yes, we know each other very well, but I'm here today for a little bit of business. Qiu Shuo said mysteriously.
"What's the matter? I won't delay you, will I?" asked Li Weiguo in surprise.
"Hey, where do you want to go, let's go, if I want to prevent you from saying that?"
The two of them laughed and walked into the Yipin Sheep Soup Restaurant, and then Qiu Shuo took Li Weiguo straight into the small box inside, and four cold dishes were already placed on the table inside.
"Here, brother, Village Chief Li sit down, I'm making two dishes, let's have a few drinks." "At this time, someone was talking behind him.
Qiu Shuo and Li Weiguo turned around and saw the boss Yuan Xiang standing behind them with a pot of lamb with bones, and they hurriedly dodged their bodies and asked Yuan Xiang to put the basin on the table.
"I'll go, why did you make it so hearty?" Qiu Shuo asked, looking at a large pot of mutton.
"I'll take those dishes and introduce you to someone. Yuan Xiang put down the meat bowl and went out again.
After a while, he and another man walked over, both of them were holding dishes in their hands, and Qiu Shuo and Li Weiguo hurriedly helped take them and put them on the table.
"Village Chief Li, Qiu Shuo, he is my younger brother, his name is Yuan Zhen, he is Chinese New Year's Eve five years today, and he should not be as big as you. Yuan Xiang said.
"Haha...... , he is a brother, I am thirty-seven, not to mention Brother Li, who is older than you. Qiu Shuo said with a smile.
"Village Chief Li, Brother Qiushuo, sit down, I'll pour wine. Yuan Zhen said as he picked up the clay pot that was blanched in hot water and filled it with wine for several people.
"Come on, Village Chief Li, Qiu Shuo, let's do one first, and then talk about things. Yuan Xiang said that he was drunk as soon as he picked it up, and their wine glasses were all one or two, so it was normal to toast.
Then everyone drank three cups and ate a large piece of meat, and then slowed down the pace, chewed slowly, and chatted while eating.
"You've got me to inquire about something. Yuan Xiang whispered to Qiu Shuo.
"Oh, what's the situation?" Qiu Shuo hurriedly asked.
"It so happened that they came to eat with me that day, and I recognized one of them. ”
"Really, who do you recognize?"
"It's the person who is making trouble in your compound, it seems that his name is Tian Guorong, and he is a short and fat man. Yuan Xiang still whispered.
"Hehe, hehe, it turned out that Lu Di really guessed it, fortunately I investigated it, otherwise I would have been deceived by them. Qiu Ge said after sneering a few times.
"You're talking about the group of people at the distribution station, right?" Li Weiguo also asked in a low voice.
"Yes, it's them, they really have something to do with Liu Zheng, since that's the case, then let's guard against them, tell Brother Zheng tomorrow, you can't use them as a distribution station tomorrow. Qiu Shuo said angrily.
"Okay, okay, you know, and the other thing is that the houses you bought don't necessarily work out, because they're messing with them. Yuan Xiang continued.
"Well, I'll go, it turns out that this is also their sin? Okay, I'll write down this revenge, rabbit cub, I'll let you do evil, and sooner or later I will take revenge on you. Qiu Shuo was even angrier.
"Just know who did it, you don't have to be angry, we'll clean them up slowly. Li Weiguo persuaded.
"That's right, it's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, come and drink. Yuan Xiang said.
"How can they fool that almost everyone into asking for the house back?" Qiu Shuo was a little puzzled.
"Who knows, maybe they want to buy it too, so they promised more money, but I just said here: 'Stir up Du Qiuge and them', and nothing else. ”
"Hmph... ,This is a story.,Wait to see the excitement;Come with a mixed mentality.,That is, the promise is relatively high.,But the likelihood of fulfilling the promise is much small.。 Li Weiguo snorted coldly.
"Then let's see the excitement, come, do another one, I think Brother Yuan Zhen is also very drinkable?" Qiu Shuo said.
"Hehe... I can drink some, but it's not very powerful. ”
"I'll bring my cousin someday, and you can compete with him to see who can drink better. "Qiu Shuo now also knows that Ji Quanan is massive.
"How much can your cousin drink?" asked Yuan Zhen.
"Last time Qiu Ge was at home, I took him to start a business and drink, it seems that he didn't get drunk after drinking five or six catties, right?" Qiu Shuo said.
"I'll go, then I don't dare to drink, I'll be more than a pound. Yuan Zhen said in surprise.
"Qiu Shuo, my brother came today because he wants to discuss something with you, he wants to build a factory, but his strength is limited, he wants to join forces with you to see if you have this idea?" Yuan Xiang said.
"Oh, I don't know what factory you want to build?" Qiu Shuo immediately asked, he was really interested.
"Brother Du, I have been in the Central Plains for a while, and I know a lot about charcoal making, so I want to set up a charcoal factory, but our strength is limited, I wonder if you are interested in doing it together?" Yuan Zhen asked after explaining.
"Charcoal, what charcoal to burn, we eat charcoal from hot pot and barbecue?" Qiu Shuo didn't quite understand.
"There is charcoal, and there are charcoal blocks that are fired from straw. ”
"Is there a market for this thing? There is no shortage of firewood for every household here. Qiu Shuo questioned.
"There should be a market, although there is no shortage of firewood, but now the countryside is not allowed to enter the village in large quantities, so the use of carbide for heating and cooking should be acceptable to everyone. Yuan Zhen further explained.
"How much does it cost to build such a factory?"
"It needs about one or two million, and we need to prepare the factory and buy equipment. ”
"Oh, then let's do it, I'll go back and discuss it with Qiu Ge and them, and if it's feasible, we'll talk about the specific way of cooperation. Qiu Shuo said.
"Okay, I'll wait for you to reply. Yuan Zhen said.
After drinking, Qiu Shuo and Li Weiguo immediately returned to the house, looked for Lu Di, and explained to her about the distribution station and the matter of selling the house and regretting it.
