Chapter 6: The Blossoms

The man poured water and looked north to take a look at the environment inside the house: dark old-fashioned furniture, the TV was still bulky with a large box, the leather-wrapped sofa had cracked, and the place where the butt sat down was obviously dark and collapsed. Although the furniture is shabby, the walls are painted with special attention and the floor tiles are paved. In the countryside, this should be considered a middle-income family.

"Fellow, what is your surname?" Xiang Bei took out a cigarette and handed it to the man.

"Luo Rufeng. The man was not polite, and reached out to take the cigarette.

Xiang Bei lit a cigarette: "Your surname is Luo, it should also be from the big family of the Luo family." You just said that the village is not safe, what happened?"

"The people who are in fear are staying at home. ”

"Why?"

Luo Rufeng hesitated for a moment and looked at Xiangbei with suspicion, "What are you doing?

"Project Headquarters?" Xiang Bei understood, and the local government set up a special headquarters for the transformation of Luohe Village, "Well, I'm not." ”

"So what the hell are you doing!"

"Fellow, I am a reporter sent by the provincial newspaper and want to know about the situation in our village. ”

"You're a reporter?!" The other party's eyes suddenly lit up, and his voice was a little excited.

"Yes. Xiang Bei didn't understand the hidden meaning of the other party's reaction, and replied vaguely.

"That's great, can you reflect the problems in our village?"

"Okay, then tell me what's going on?" Xiang Bei breathed a long sigh of relief, it seemed that he really responded to that sentence, the mountains and rivers were full of doubts, and the willows and flowers were bright and another village.

"Uh...... You wait a minute, I'll make a call. Without waiting for Xiangbei to agree, Luo Rufeng had already gotten up and walked to a secluded corner to make a call. Because the distance was too far, Luo Rufeng deliberately lowered his voice again, and he couldn't hear what the other party was saying to the north, but he could see that Luo Rufeng had been nodding frequently.

"Do you know about the dead people in the village?" Hey, it's all the money that is to blame!" Luo Rufeng hung up the phone, took a puff of cigarette, and dropped the long soot on the leather floor with imitation wood grain, "The dead and injured people are all from my village, and they all have accidents to protect the farmland in the village." Originally, the land acquisition in my village had started half a year ago, but then the compensation money had not been paid, and the big guys thought, "If you don't give you money, I won't give you land!" As a result, after a stalemate of several months, they took action. ”

"Land requisition?" It seems that Xiang Bei guessed correctly, and the seemingly ordinary criminal case may have a bigger problem hidden behind it, "Who are they talking about?"

"Xu Changlin! And the boss surnamed Weng from the south!"

"Who are they?"

"Xu Changlin is the director of our village, and the one surnamed Weng is the developer, and they are discussing selling our land!" Luo Rufeng stared straight at Xiang Bei with his eyes, and his tone was a little excited.

"This project is a unified plan in the city, can you not know?"

Luo Rufeng shook his head, "How can we understand this kind of big thing? I don't know how to plan, but then everyone received a notice that every household should count the appurtenances on the ground, and everyone understands what's going on." Anyway, I didn't agree to sell the land at that time. We are counting on this livelihood, who is willing to sell the land, you say no. ”

What Luo Rufeng said may not be a lie. In between interviews, Xiang Bei did his homework. In accordance with the relevant laws, in accordance with the authority and procedures prescribed by law, collectively owned land, units and individual houses and other immovable property may be expropriated in accordance with the authority and procedures prescribed by law. Of course, in order to protect the interests of the villagers, the approval process is extremely strict. There is a complete and complex set of procedures for the expropriation of rural land, including step-by-step approval, issuance of public announcements, signing of resettlement compensation agreements, holding hearings on compensation and resettlement plans, etc., without these procedures, it is illegal land acquisition, and villagers can sue to confirm that their land expropriation is illegal and to revoke it.

"What is the compensation standard and how much do you get?"

"Tens of thousands of yuan per acre of land, this money is in hand. But there is still a compensation that has not been received, and I heard that there are tens of millions of miles in total!"

Hearing this number, Xiangbei's eyes lit up, if this is the case, it is explosive news!

A qualified journalist should have a dog-like sense of smell to put it mildly. Why do you say that? When a reporter listens to an interviewee or looks at a material, he or she can tell which words are newsworthy and which sentence can attract attention, and he can tell which words are newsworthy and which words can attract attention as soon as his eyes are scanned and his eardrums are filtered.

"Master Luo, is the money you said really there, or is it just a rumor?"

"I'm not talking nonsense. It was discussed at a village meeting two months ago, but it seems to have been stuck on it. ”

Xiang adjusted the voice recorder on the couch to the north. Before the conversation between the two began, he had turned on the recording function, which is a habit he has developed as a reporter for many years, which can make it easier to organize the material later, and can also be used as evidence that the press release will not be questioned and found wrong.

However, Xiangbei understands that the words of the villagers can only be used as a one-sided point of view, and the issues involved need to be verified more authoritatively. This is like an old reporter once told him, listening to people must filter by themselves, because everyone will seek advantages and avoid disadvantages to talk about some things, and a good reporter must first learn to discern.

Taking advantage of Luo Rufeng's time to boil water in the kitchen, Xiangbei listed several key questions in the interview book:

1. Is the "11.23 Luohe Arson Case" (the right to name this incident as such, "arson" means a man-made incident) related to the land acquisition project?

2. Is there a sound procedure for the land acquisition project?

3. Is it true that the tens of millions of yuan in compensation that Luo Rufeng said is not in place, and if the situation is true, where is the money and how should it be distributed?

4. Is there an exchange of interests between Xu Changlin, the village director, and the developer surnamed Weng, and is there any relationship with the "Luohe arson case"?

Xiang Bei sorted out his interview questions, and listed the channels and methods to solve these problems in the interview book:

1. Who is the real culprit behind the Luohe arson case, and the most authoritative answer must come from the police.

2. Whether the land acquisition project is legal or not, it is necessary to contact the land, construction, planning and other departments of Hedong City, and look at the "Construction Land Approval", "Land Acquisition Announcement", "Informed Consent of Compensation Standards", "Compensation and Resettlement Agreement", relevant meeting minutes on income distribution methods and other documents.

3. As for the compensation of more than 10 million yuan, it needs to be understood from the city to the village.

4. The relationship between Xuchanglin and the developer needs to be grasped from the villagers, insiders and other channels through open and secret visits, and if possible, direct contact with the two!
