Chapter 193: Blocking the Road
The Zhou family is willing to further deepen cooperation, and things will be promoted much faster.
On June 26, Pengyue formally signed an agreement to take a stake in Zhujiang Construction. At the same time, Zhang Lisheng also signed a letter of intent on behalf of Yexin Bank, agreeing that Pengyue Group would provide asset guarantee and provide a low-interest loan of 40 million yuan to Zhujiang Construction, saving funds to go around Pengyue.
After the preparations were ready, Shen Huai convened a party and government meeting to discuss the issue of abandoning the existing plan and building bridges on the southern line. This matter has always been secretly planned, and only a few members of the party committee, including He Qingshe, Li Feng, Huang Xinliang, and Guo Quan, know about it, and once the new plan is announced, other members of the party committee are naturally shocked and suspicious.
There are also concerns about the huge amount of money used to build the bridge on the southern route.
In addition to the road and bridge project, the attached steel mill road shantytown demolition and resettlement, Meixi old street renovation and other projects, a total of 60 million yuan is needed to complete these things.
Some people do not understand the beauty of diversifying financing channels, and they do not even see the trend of development, but they only know that they need to invest 60 million yuan to do these things well, which is 10 times the financial revenue of Meixi Town in 93 years.
They thought that Shen Huai, a loser, would lose all the financial revenue for the next ten years at a time, and they naturally had great worries in their hearts.
However, Shen Huai reached a consensus with He Qingshe and Li Feng in advance, and he had already done this point, and the party and government meeting was a formality, so that this matter seemed to be a decision made through collective discussion.
Townships and towns do not have a strong sense of secrecy, and when a matter is discussed and approved by a party and government meeting, it is equivalent to making it public to the outside world.
Abandoning the existing plan and building bridges on the southern line is a few happy and a few worried.
Those who participated in the fund-raising were happy.
Although the previous Xinmei New Village fund-raising housing village, although it has complete municipal facilities, high construction quality, and a good environment in the planning of the new village, it is also the biggest fly in the ointment because it is in a corner. It is also this fly in the ointment that makes many people hesitate for a while and finally give up participating in fundraising to build houses.
The bridge was built on the south line, and on the basis of Gangchang Road, the high-grade Zhuxi Road was built with the standard of the city's secondary road, which was connected to the Meihe Road being built on the east side, which immediately reversed the disadvantage of Xinmei New Village being nested in a corner and inconvenient access.
When the people who participated in the fund-raising and building of the house heard the news, they immediately put on a smiling face; those who had hesitated to give up participating in the fund-raising and building of the house were re-motivated at this time, and did not dare to harass Shen Huai, so they stared at Guo Quan, who was in charge of the town's real estate company, and asked when the third phase of Xinmei New Village would be launched.
Residents living in the shantytown north of Gangchang Road are also enthusiastically discussing the news of the construction of the bridge on the southern route.
The formation of the shantytown on the north side of the steel mill road is directly related to the construction of a small steel mill in the 60s, and a group of simple houses were originally built to settle the steel mill workers and township workers.
Over the past 30 years, some workers have left their jobs and their households have changed a lot; some houses have become private houses, while others have become public rental housing. However, with the exception of the town's dormitory district, which has an annual subsidy for house repairs, most of the houses are dilapidated.
Over the years, your family has built a kitchen, my family has built a toilet, and the whole shantytown has been crowded together, and even if some residents have saved some money and want to renovate a new house, they can't move the vacant land.
Demolition is the best way, but there are still large shantytowns in the urban area to be renovated, and the residents of Meixi Town never thought that good things would happen to them.
The Zhuxi Bridge and Zhuxi Road will be widened by about 20 meters to the north, involving about 30 households. However, Shen Huai wants to demolish all the shantytowns from Zhuxi Road to Meixi Old Street this time, and nearly 200 households will be relocated to the third phase of the Xinmei New Village project on the south side of Zhuxi Road.
Xinmei New Village, a fund-raising housing community, is separated from the shantytown by a narrow steel mill road, and residents in the shantytown can see the construction of the new village every day. Some qualified families have already paid money to participate in raising funds to build houses and improve the living environment for their family members, but most of the households do not have this economic condition, so they can only hope for plum and make themselves thirsty, and dream of moving into a new village at night.
Suddenly, the dream was about to become a reality, and the excitement of the shantytown was needless to say.
There are happy and there are unhappy.
The plan that circulated early was to rebuild the Meixi Bridge and widen it along the Xiamei Highway to the south.
For the merchants along the Xiamei Highway, the commercial residents on the north side of the highway are counting on a significant improvement in the environment, and the commercial residents on the south side, although there will be some business closure losses, they are also counting on high compensation and newly built storefronts.
In particular, during this period, private property transactions were secretly active, which increased the expectation of commercial residents to receive high compensation, but they did not expect to pour a basin of cold water on their heads to extinguish their hopes.
As soon as the news came out, more than a dozen people rushed to the town government in the morning to inquire about it.
After Shen Huai had a meeting in the morning, he went to the steel mill to see the installation of the 30-ton high-frequency electric furnace, and He Qingshe did not have any special attention to this, but only sent Huang Xinliang, the deputy leader of the project team and the newly appointed deputy mayor and director of the party and government office, to explain to these people.
By the afternoon, more than 80 commercial households, who were unwilling to wait for many days to come to naught, gathered together and went to the town government to discuss the explanation. They did not go directly to the town government compound in the afternoon, but gathered in front of the gate of the town government and blocked Xuetang Street tightly.
When Shen Huai got the news, he had no choice but to put down what he was doing, and called Shao Zheng to drive him back to the town government.
"Do you want to wait for Director Liu to bring people to the town government to control the situation first?" Shao Zheng was worried that Shen Huai would be affected if he showed up too early.
"It doesn't matter, after all, it's just a few people who can't figure it out, and a few people can't make a big mess of it behind their backs. Shen Huai insisted on rushing back to the town government to control the deterioration of the situation.
In addition to the more than 80 people who besieged the town government at the beginning, one or two hundred people gathered at this time to watch the excitement, blocking the Xuetang Street. The police station had few manpower, so he could barely maintain order and not be too chaotic, while Li Feng organized the joint defense team to be on the inside of the gate to prevent these people from rushing in.
Shen Huai frowned, Xuetang Street was blocked, and it was soon time for the town elementary school and Meixi Middle School to end school, even if the school was notified to suspend the dismissal, but if it was blocked at this point, thousands or even more people would soon gather, and the situation would become more and more difficult to control.
Shen Huai and Shao Zheng squeezed inside, and saw a young man holding half a brick smashing the gate of the town government, Shao Zheng grabbed the young man's hand and snatched the brick down.
Shen Huai motioned for Li Feng to open the door, he calmly looked at the people surrounding the gate, and said, "I'm Shen Huai, if you have any requirements, you can come inside and talk to me." It is illegal to obstruct traffic, and you should not be instigated by others......"
Chu Qiang and the others were also quick to see the opportunity, and when they opened the door, they quickly got out and blocked behind, so as not to let others entangle Shen Huai.
Shen Huai walked to the inside of the gate, stood on the flower bed and looked over, saw Du Gui flickering in the crowd, but did not see Pan Shigui's figure, smiled coldly in his heart, and motioned to Shao Zheng and Chu Qiang to let them in.
The crowd surrounding the gate was hesitating, not knowing whether to continue to block the road or enter the town government compound to talk, but there were also discordant voices coming out:
"Don't listen to his fart, he wants to trick us into going in and arresting everyone! Our request is very simple, that is, let the town government change its decision, there is nothing to talk about. If the town government doesn't make it clear today, we will never leave......"
Shen Huai took the loudspeaker from Li Feng's hand, pointed at a young man in a flowered shirt in the crowd, and asked sharply: "Your voice is the loudest, you stand up and say, what decision do you want the town government to change?"
The young man in the flower shirt pointed his finger at Shen Huai's face, and wanted to hide from nowhere, so he had to stand up and ask loudly: "Why did the town government go back on its word, it had always said that it would repair the Xia Mei Highway and ask us to cooperate with the town to do the demolition work, and we changed our minds without saying hello, did the town treat us as monkeys?"
"The town has been actively promoting the Xiamei Highway reconstruction project, but this is a matter involving everyone's fundamental interests, so we must ask for everyone's consent," Shen Huai shouted loudly with a loudspeaker, "So at the beginning of the month, the town did a questionnaire survey." About 60% of the commercial residents are willing to cooperate with the town's road renovation, but there are some commercial residents who disagree......"
At this time, Huang Xinliang handed over a list, and Shen Huai opened the list: "Ji Xueli answered our staff in the questionnaire: Lao Tzu has lived here since his grandfather's generation, why did the town government tell me to demolish it, Lao Tzu just doesn't demolish it, and I will demolish it as much as I want?
Shen Huai's sharp eyes swept across the crowd, and through the gaze of the person next to him, he immediately looked for the middle-aged man who was a little bald on the top of his head, saw that he was about to retreat, pointed at him, and asked: "Are you Ji Xueli, please tell me that the town government has decided to suspend the reconstruction project of Xiamei Highway, what opinions do you have to express to the town?"
"I ...... I ...... the head of the middle-aged bald man "me", so I booed the next side to coax away.
"Du Jianmin, who is also from the fourth group of the Nanhe Neighborhood Committee, thinks that our compensation standard of 'demolishing one and returning one' is too low, and cannot meet the compensation requirement of 5,000 yuan per square meter of his storefront. Is Du Jianmin here?" Shen Huai's eyes swept over, and he saw a man in a striped short-sleeved shirt walking out, and he knew that he was Du Jianmin from Nanhe when he looked at other people's eyes, and he didn't pay attention to him, but just raised the list in his hand towards the crowd, "The residents and businesses along the Xiamei Highway, there are still twenty-one people who are clearly opposed to the road reconstruction, do you want to pronounce the names one by one?" I believe that most of the people who rushed over to discuss the problem with the town government today are in favor of the town government to do the renovation project, but at the same time, there are so many people who oppose it, what can the town government do?"
Twenty or so people retreated one after another, and immediately the crowd that was stretched at the gate was loosened. The young man in the flower shirt also wanted to retreat, but Chu Qiang came over and whispered to Shen Huai: "This may not be from Meixi Town." ”
Shen Huai gave Liu Weiguo a look on the side, Liu Weiguo's eyes were quick, and before the young man in the flower shirt was about to get into the crowd, he grabbed him and dragged him in.
