The middle-aged farmer, nicknamed Yuan Laoer, was a villager from Songgang Village, the capital town of Dongjiang County. His nephew used to work as a pattern maker in a shoe factory in Pingshan Town, Yuehai County. Late one night in March last year, his nephew was hit by a car on his way back to his dormitory after working overtime. By the time the workers found Yuan Lianda's nephew on the side of the road, his nephew had already died.

When Yuan Lianda's niece and daughter-in-law heard the news, they took their child who had just reached the age of one month and went to the shoe factory to ask the boss for work-related injury compensation. Because according to the relevant regulations, if an employee is injured in a motor vehicle accident on the way to and from work, it shall be recognized as a work-related injury.

However, the owner of the shoe factory was unwilling to pay compensation for work-related injuries, of course, he did not say that he would not compensate, but that after the hit-and-run vehicle was found, he would ask the owner of the car for death compensation, funeral expenses and other expenses, and the remaining expenses would be borne by the shoe factory.

This is obviously prevarication, and of course Yuan Lianda's nephew and daughter-in-law disagree. So many people from the Yuan family came, including Yuan Lianda, who also went to Yuehai to help his dead nephew seek justice. Helplessly, the owner of the shoe factory has a lot of money and is not afraid of them at all. In a desperate situation, someone gave Yuan Lianda an idea, saying that Zhao Changfeng, secretary of the Yuehai County Party Committee, is nicknamed Zhao Qingtian, and he is most concerned about the people, and if you want to solve this matter, you must find Zhao Qingtian.

As soon as Yuan Lianda heard this, he was energetic, and he planned to go to the county to find Secretary Zhao Qingtian.

The person who came up with the idea stopped him and said that you think the county party committee office building was built by your family, and you can go in if you want to? The doorman won't let you in.

Yuan Lianda said, the doorman didn't let him in, how could he see Zhao Qingtian?

The person who came up with the idea said that this is easy to do, the doorman won't let you in, you can write a letter. You personally write a report letter to Secretary Zhao and reflect your nephew's situation, and Secretary Zhao will definitely help you solve it after reading it.

A letter is enough? Yuan Lianda felt that this method was a bit unreliable, but there was no other way, so he could only write a letter to Secretary Zhao Changfeng with the mentality of treating a dead horse as a live horse doctor, telling what happened to his nephew. More than ten days later, the law enforcement brigade of the Yuehai County Labor Bureau contacted Yuan Lianda's niece and daughter-in-law and asked her to take the materials to the law enforcement brigade. Although Yuan Lianda returned to Dongjiang County afterwards, he remembered that Zhao Changfeng, secretary of the Yuehai County Party Committee, was the famous Zhao Qingtian.

Later, when the "Haizhou Daily" published the news that Zhao Changfeng was appointed as the executive vice mayor of Haizhou City, Yuan Lianda also pointed to Zhao Changfeng's name and said to others that Mayor Zhao is different from other officials, he is a good official, and when he was in Yuehai County, he was the famous Zhao Qingtian.

What Yuan Lianda didn't expect was that he and Zhao Changfeng and Zhao Qingtian actually completed their first meeting under such circumstances.

So what did Yuan Lianda and his gang of peasants do? Things have to be said from the new Haidong line.

The new Haidong line passes through the land of Songgang Village, and a total of 180 mu of land in Songgang Village has been expropriated, and according to the compensation standard for land acquisition, the land compensation fee, resettlement subsidy fee and seedling fee are combined, and the compensation for each mu of land is 40,000 yuan. This standard is too low for farmers living in the Yujiang Delta. One acre of land is in their hands, and in which year does the net income not be three or four thousand? As long as you are diligent and willing to work, you will earn 60,000 yuan in more than ten years. But now they have to accept this reality and hand over the land on which they have lived and relied for generations at a price of 40,000 yuan.

What the villagers of Songgang Village did not expect was that even if they had not been able to get the compensation of 40,000 yuan per mu in this district, the land had been expropriated in 1999, but now that it was 2003, they still had not received a penny of compensation.

The villagers went to the village committee to ask for an explanation, and the village committee said that because the Dongjiang section of the Haidong New Line has not yet started, the land compensation has not yet been paid, and when this section of the road starts construction, the leading group for land acquisition and demolition of the project construction headquarters of the Dongjiang section of the Haidong New Line will send the land compensation down, and the village committee will send it to each villager.

Seeing that there has been no movement in the past few years, the villagers have no choice, so they discussed and said that the farmers rely on the land to eat, since the construction of this section of the road has not yet started, and the land compensation has not been paid, then we will use the land to earn some living money. So at the beginning of this year, these landless peasants began to cultivate their lives on the land that once belonged to them but had been abandoned for several years, according to their original way of life: growing rice, vegetables, flowers, or continuing to raise fish and shrimp in fish ponds.

But the land was abandoned and no one took care of it, and the villagers began to cultivate it, and some people came out. The staff of the leading group for land acquisition and demolition of the project construction headquarters of the Dongjiang section of the project heard the wind and drove to the scene. Shi Yonghua, the deputy leader of the group, said to the landless peasants in Songgang Village that this land has been expropriated by the road construction headquarters and belongs to the state, so how can you cultivate this land privately? This is against the law and regulations.

The villagers asked Shi Yonghua, since it was requisitioned by the state, why hasn't the compensation been paid to us yet? Without compensation and without land, how can we live? Now these plots of land are also barren, let's use them first, grow rice and raise fish, and subsidize some families, what can't we do?

Shi Yonghua said that it is true that the compensation has not yet been paid, but the fact that the compensation has not been paid does not change the fact that the land was expropriated by the state. Since it has been expropriated by the state, then you cannot cultivate on it, and if you cultivate, it is illegal. And the compensation is not to say that it will not be paid, but because this section of the road has not yet started, it has not been in place for the time being, and when this section of the road starts, the compensation will definitely be paid.

The villagers were in an uproar, saying that the leading group for land acquisition and demolition did not care about the lives of the villagers, and there was no compensation, and these lands were not allowed to be cultivated.

Shi Yonghua sighed and said that considering the special situation of the villagers in Songgang Village, the leading group for land acquisition and demolition can make some workarounds to take care of the villagers, and allow the villagers to cultivate and breed on these lands when the construction of this section of the road has not started. However, the villagers must pay some land lease fees, and considering that the villagers used to be the original owners of these lands, the land lease fees are halved according to the market price, and the lease fee is 400 yuan per mu a year.

Of course the villagers don't do it, this is their own land, these lands are currently abandoned, and the political axe has not given them land compensation, they have no food or drink now, and they grow some food on these lands to feed themselves, so why should they still pay money to the political axe?

Seeing the turmoil, Shi Yonghua led the staff of the leading group for land acquisition and demolition to retreat, and before leaving, he sneered and said: "These lands are already state, if you don't pay the contract lease fee, don't think about cultivating on it, otherwise, you will bear the consequences." ”

The villagers originally thought that this was just Shi Yonghua's words to scare people, but no one paid attention to it, and they should plant rice on it, grow vegetables to grow vegetables, and raise fish fry to raise fish. And the people of the leading group for land acquisition and demolition have not appeared again. However, in late May, when the early rice could be ripe for harvest in another month, Shi Yonghua led the staff of the land acquisition and demolition leading group to Songgang Village, and he told the villagers that they must pay the contract lease fee according to the planting area within three days, otherwise they will take action.

None of the villagers paid any attention to Shi Yonghua's threat. However, just yesterday, the staff of the leading group for land acquisition and demolition suddenly led several bulldozers to the outside of Songgang Village, and several bulldozers drove into the ripening early rice fields, rampage, and crushed all the early rice. Two bulldozers drove up to the edge of the pond and kept shoveling soil into the pond to destroy it. By the time the villagers received the news and rushed over, the staff of the leading group for land acquisition and demolition had already evacuated with bulldozers. But they put aside their words and told those villagers who had not paid the fees to hurry up to the leading group for land acquisition and demolition to pay the contract fees, otherwise the fate of the more than 10 acres of rice fields and two fish ponds would be their example.

The villagers were furious, how could they let people destroy these rice, vegetables, flowers and fish ponds, all of which they had poured their hearts and souls into? So they all gathered on the road with shovels and pickaxes, and if the leading group for land acquisition and demolition dared to send people over to sabotage, they would use their shovels and pickaxes to meet the battle. Because Yuan Lianda's surname is bold and cheerful, helpful, and has a relatively high prestige among the villagers, everyone publicly recommended Yuan Lianda to be the principal. So when Lao Zhang opened Santana 2000 and carried Zhao Changfeng over, the opening scene happened.

After listening to Yuan Lianda's narration, and the villagers chattering together on the side, Zhao Changfeng basically figured out what happened. Zhao Changfeng also felt very angry about the actions of Shi Yonghua, the leading group for land acquisition and demolition of the Dongjiang section of the project. As a state functionary, what is the difference between treating peasant brothers like this and bandits? No wonder these villagers are so angry. At the same time, Zhao Changfeng felt fortunate that if he hadn't come here today to inspect the situation of the new Haidong Line and happened to encounter this incident, then when the people from the land acquisition and demolition leading group came over again and encountered the villagers of Songgang Village, there would be a bloody incident.
