The surveying and mapping verification work took a long time. Finally, it was solved one by one with modern surveying methods. The land conditions on the map of Meiyang Village placed in the middle of the big tent gradually became clear. There were many marks on the map floor.
Only professionals can see the numbers and color blocks. They are colorful and densely packed and look like an abstract painting.
It is easy to see from the gradually clearing up the surveying and drawing boards that someone has concealed the acres of land. Many of the fields surveyed and mapped have not been declared. There is no doubt that these are hidden fields. To be cautious, Wang Ruixiang also made a special appointment with Fu Buer and some elderly people in the village.
, to find out if there are any foreign landowners purchasing land in this village, and got a negative answer.
"Okay, now you are going to be chickens." Wang Ruixiang thought to himself in his tent. As for who has not declared, he is not in a hurry to find out. Anyway, they will take the initiative to identify them when the land title is issued.
.
On this day, Wang Ruixiang held a village meeting on the threshing floor of the village and issued a new version of the land title on the spot.
The new version of the land deed adopts the form of a double-open certificate with a unified serial number. The front and back covers are made of thick cardboard, which is wear-resistant and durable. The paper is also heavy-weight cardboard with watermarks from the paper factory. In order to avoid having to change the land deed after becoming unique in the future.
Trouble, the new version of the land deed only uses the name of the Lingao County Grain Collection Bureau and has the official seal of the Grain Collection Bureau. Only the last page has the seal of the main hall of Lingao County - used to win the trust of the people, after all, now
The flag of Ming Dynasty has not been thrown away.
The new land deed not only indicates various data such as land owner, area, size and location. It also comes with a proportional plan drawn according to modern drawing methods. The land deed is made in triplicate, with one copy kept by the landowner and one by the household.
There is also a copy archived by the Great Library.
After the land deeds were issued, Wang Ruixiang announced that all remaining undeclared fields would be confiscated as terra nullius.
"It would be a pity to have so much unowned land abandoned. However, the county has recruited many refugees in Guangdong, so the unowned land will be given to them for farming." Wang Ruixiang said nonchalantly, "There will be more than a dozen households in your village.
Get along well."
It is well known in Lingao that the Australians brought refugees from the mainland in boat after boat in Bopu. Now they are saying that they will use the ownerless land in this village to resettle them - this is a reasonable and reasonable thing, and people present cannot help but believe it.
As soon as this was said, all the villagers were stunned. Not only the person who had concealed the land, but also the tenants were surprised - this move was so vicious!
"Okay, I've received the land deed, so let's disperse."
There was a buzz of discussion in the place.
"Chief! Come on, okay!" A sharp female voice suddenly came out. When a woman from a landlord's family heard that all the undeclared land would be confiscated and distributed to immigrants from the mainland, she could no longer calm down.
When he got angry, he rushed out of the crowd, kneeling on the ground and crawling over, regardless of what the head of the family did, and lay at Wang Ruixiang's feet.
"The young ones still have fields that have not been declared -"
"It's late, the declaration period has ended." Wang Ruixiang said expressionlessly, "In another month, immigrants from the mainland will arrive."
This was a big shock. Everyone in the courtyard who had been trying to keep calm all panicked. They all knelt down and begged together.
Wang Ruixiang didn't care about the families who concealed their land. The whole family knelt on the ground and begged, but remained calm. He said that he allowed the people kneeling on the ground to cry, tear their clothes, stamp their feet and beat their chests. You must know that the family that suffered the most serious losses was
Almost half of the land was lost. Several members of the family cried until they fainted.
"I've told you so many times: I want you to declare truthfully. If you declare the reclaimed land, you will be issued a land deed. If you don't declare it, if you have a land deed, it will be treated as ownerless land." Wang Ruixiang saw that the situation was almost over, so he pretended to be pitiful and said, "You guys
There is nothing you can do if you don't listen. Immigrants from the mainland are coming, and now they say there is no land - tell me, what should we do about this matter?"
"This is all because of the lard of young people. Please forgive me!" The people kneeling in front of him were covered in black. The old men leading them had their heads smashed.
"Don't pretend to be pitiful. If we couldn't measure it, you wouldn't be kneeling here begging for mercy." Wang Ruixiang sneered, "Maybe you will still be laughing secretly at home, thinking you have a trick."
These words were heartbreaking. The people kneeling below all turned pale and were speechless.
Wang Ruixiang coughed: "If you dare to do something, dare to do it. Don't act like a person without eggs."
"You guys don't dare anymore!" The people below continued to plead, and the stone floor was banged with their heads. Several people's foreheads were swollen and bleeding.
The women were crying and wiping away their tears in the crowd. Many people were watching on the threshing floor, mostly ordinary farmers in the village. Seeing the rich people in the village in such a mess, everyone was very relieved, and some had expressions on their faces.
With a smile on his face, there were people cheering on his side.
Fu Bu'er also stood on the threshing floor with a straight face and said nothing. But he was secretly happy: this move was still the right one. The Australian who seemed rude but was actually shrewd just praised him and made him
He said he had become a "role model" and made many wishes - not to mention whether these wishes could be realized, at least all his land was saved.
He secretly glanced at Fu Yousan's eldest son, Fu Yizhuang, who was sweating profusely. The members of Fu Yousan's family resisted confessing. They were confident that the location of their village was hidden and the Australians had not noticed it, but in such a place
Under the scene, Fu Yizhuang felt unsure, and this kind of suffering was enough. He secretly complained about his father Fu Yousan: He only came up with ideas, but asked others to come forward. When encountering the situation, he would only hide.
"Okay," Wang Ruixiang saw that their scalps were swollen from kowtowing, and each one of them was almost dying of crying and kowtowing, so he relaxed, "Seeing how pitiful you are in begging, I will give everyone a way out."
"Thank you, chief -" he kowtowed again.
"Don't thank me yet." Wang Ruixiang sneered, "If there is anyone else in this village who has not declared the land honestly, if you expose it, I will give you a chance to be punished lightly."
There was a moment of silence in the yard, and everyone's eyes immediately turned to Fu Yizhuang: Fu Yousan's family has more than these fields, and everyone in the village knows it.
Wang Ruixiang's eyes followed. Fu Yi was as strong as a thorn on his back, and his legs were trembling. He just wanted to kneel down and beg for mercy. He calmed down and secretly comforted himself: No matter how talented the Australians are, they are not clairvoyant and have ears for the wind. Zhuangzi's position is
Even if no one in the village could tell me, what was he afraid of? Even if someone wanted to report him, he would have to tell where he was.
"Fu Yousan's family owns a lot of land." Someone finally hid in the crowd and whispered.
The people kneeling on the ground seemed to have seen a straw, and one by one they turned into vicious dogs, jumping up and biting the Fu Yousan family. Whether they were men, women or old people, they all shouted with certainty: "Does the Fu Yousan family have land?"
Report!
The words immediately gathered into a wave, which hit Fu Yizhuang hard. Fu Yizhuang's face turned pale, and he looked at these guys kneeling on the ground begging for mercy, and immediately attacked his family without caring about the feelings of relatives, fellow clansmen and neighbors.
I was betrayed and was so angry that I almost vomited blood.
He forced himself to calm down, and when he saw Chief Wang's eyes heading towards him, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and answer:
"All the land owned by Xiao's family has indeed been declared and nothing is hidden."
"He's lying!" a woman screamed, "Fu Yousan, this old boy, is the best at raking in money. He has so much food in his house that he can't finish it. He buys land every year. There must be other land!" These words immediately aroused people's attention again.
There was a frantic chorus.
Wang Ruixiang waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and called him in front of him: "Is your family really running out of land?"
"It's really not true." Fu Yizhuang simply said hard.
"Not even in other villages?"
"A small home is a small industry. If another village buys land, it will not be managed."
"Don't you have a brother? Where has your brother gone?" Wang Ruixiang asked.
Fu Yizhuang was surprised. He didn't expect Australians to be so aware of his family's affairs. Then he thought about it and it must have been Fu Fuji who had told the story.
"Er Zhuang went to his wife's natal home."
"Well," Wang Ruixiang stared at him for a while. "Where is your father?"
"He, he is sick——"
"Sick again? He really gets sick, and he always gets sick." Wang Ruixiang said with a smile, and suddenly lowered his voice and said to him, "You think so?"
"Yes - yes -" Fu Yizhuang was caught off guard.
"Your family owns land but has not repaid it," Wang Ruixiang spat on the ground. "You and your father must think that we can't find that place, right?"
"Don't dare, don't dare." Fu Yizhuang was so frightened that he became incoherent and his body was shaking involuntarily.
"I'll tell you right now," Wang Ruixiang's eyes swept over the others, "Nothing can be hidden from our eyes!" As he said that, he returned his gaze to Fu Yizhuang's trembling body, "Go back and tell you.
Dad: There is no need to torture you, we will know exactly how much land your family still has in three days. By then your family will have to pay double."
Fu Yizhuang wanted to recognize him, but he thought that if he could tell his story, his father would never believe what he said, and it would be his own fault - he was afraid of his father, like a mouse seeing a cat. Knowing that the consequences of this matter would be serious,
Still don't dare to go against Fu Yousan's decision.
"Chief, it's not the little ones who can make the decision in the family." Fu Yizhuang was so confused that he almost begged, "Please forgive me! Please forgive me!"
"You're such a useless kid!" Wang Rui was filled with contempt for him, "You're a man in your thirties, and you don't have any responsibility for your own affairs!"
Fu Yizhuang was sulking in his heart: Do I dare to take responsibility in this family? Fu Yousan is very involved in everything. Although he is the eldest son, he is just being bossed around at home like a foreman. Of course, this cannot be said.
, I had no choice but to lower my head and say nothing, and I was beaten to death without opening my mouth.
