The place where the cave collapsed was also very lucky, being right in the middle of the canal route.
No matter which way you go, the route to get there is almost the same distance.
But similarly, no matter where you start the construction, you must cut off part of the other party's field.
What was once a neat field has become two large fields and one small field.
According to their survey results, although the small one can grow some things, it must be more influential than before.
So the owners on both sides didn't do it.
Unless you add money.
"It's just money. The money you used to build the canal is at least hundreds of thousands of taels. If they want more money, just add it. What's the trouble?" Kang Cheng chuckled lightly, with unspeakable sarcasm in his tone. .
Don't those people just want money?
Just give it.
As for being so gloomy?
Kang Cheng smiled and shook his head.
Liu Jing and Sun Zhengde looked at each other. They were silent for a moment and said, "But we don't think this is a matter of adding more money."
"We have money, but we can't encourage this kind of trend."
Sun Zhengde and Liu Jing had the same idea: "Although twenty taels of silver is indeed not much compared to building a canal. But before building the canal, we have already calculated the land that each household needs to occupy, and based on Our Ming Dynasty's laws have made up for it. Now these two families are sitting on the ground and raising their prices. If we give it, will others follow suit?"
In this way, there is no need to repair the water canal, and all the money can be distributed directly.
Chu Ze nodded in agreement.
This head cannot be opened.
"Have you ever sent people to do ideological work for them?" Chu Ze asked.
Sun Zhengde pointed to his swollen mouth: "The skin on your mouth is worn out. If you don't give me money, I won't let you fix it."
"Then just send people to arrest them and see how they make trouble." Zhu Ping's idea was more direct.
If you can't handle it with literature, then use martial arts.
Liu Jing gave him a helpless look and said, "Not to mention, these two families are both ungrateful. If we try to get the officials involved, they will wipe their necks."
In short, we are in a dilemma.
They had spent several days in that position, and they were so worried that their hair fell out in handfuls.
With nothing to do, he came to Chu Ze to see if he could do anything.
Chu Ze said: "Well, let's go to the construction site tomorrow to take a look."
He wanted to see how messed up these two families were.
The next day, hearing a louder noise in his ears, Chu Ze regretted it.
He shouldn't be so confident.
Before coming, you should at least bring some cotton.
At least his ears wouldn't suffer so much.
Chu Ze rubbed his temples with a headache: "Okay! Stop arguing!" His head was about to explode from the noise.
"So you're not going to give in?" As soon as they stopped, Chu Ze looked at the aunties in front of him, pulled a face, and deliberately looked majestic.
The two aunts are more vicious than Chu Ze.
"When the money is available, we will give it away immediately."
"That's it, give me the money." Another aunt stretched out her hand and spread it in front of Chu Ze.
Chu Ze looked at the two people, his eyes passing over the knives in their hands.
He clicked his tongue inwardly.
"Two aunties, repairing this canal is not only for the convenience of others, but also for your own convenience. This is a good thing that benefits everyone, so why bother holding on to it." Chu Ze suppressed the helplessness in his heart and said Trying to reason and persuade the two of them.
But these two people, one is worse than the other.
No matter what Chu Ze said, they couldn't listen.
He didn't even talk to Chu Ze. When he had to say something, he would just say: Give him money.
Chu Ze's words started to smoke, but the two of them remained unmoved.
Zhu Xiang was furious.
"The way we look at it, if we just put them in jail and let them eat jail food for a few days, I don't believe they can still be so stubborn."
Chu Ze didn't need to say anything, Zhu Di rejected it.
"No, this field belongs to them, and the place they need to occupy is not in the previous plan. If we send them to prison, what is the difference between that and grabbing the land? They will be stabbed in the back." Originally, they Doing this is a good thing that benefits the country and the people.
How uneconomical would it be if these two people were given a bad name because of them?
They have to think of other ways.
Chu Ze touched his chin. He pondered for a moment, then beckoned Liu Jing to his side: "Let me ask you, have you been to both of these houses, right?"
"Yes, I've been there several times." Not only Liu Jing has been there, but Sun Zhengde has also been there.
I've been there alone and together.
Without exception, all failed.
Chu Ze asked again: "Then you should know a lot about their family's situation?"
"Not bad." Sun Zhengde and Liu Jing both nodded.
Chu Ze said: "Then tell us everything about their family."
That's no problem.
Liu Jing spoke first: "The one who reached out to you just now is the Wang Li family, and the other is the Zhou Chen family. These two people are very greedy for money. Especially the Wang Li family."
Wang Li's family has a son.
This son was usually very unruly, with a bad temper, and was involved in everything from food, drink, prostitution, and gambling. Now he is in his late twenties, has not even started a family, and just wanders around the village.
"But we heard that the son of the Wang family has recently fallen in love with a little girl from a neighboring village and has already discussed marriage. Now he is preparing a betrothal gift. This is probably why Wang Li wants money this time." Sun Zhengde He leaned close to Chu Ze's ear and mysteriously told him the news he had learned.
After talking about the gossip about the Wang family's son, Sun Zhengde talked about the unlucky girl again.
"Everyone in the village is saying that the girl is a good girl. She is beautiful and has a good temperament. If the Wang family really wants to marry her back, they will definitely suffer. Alas."
Chu Ze glanced at Sun Zhengde in surprise and asked, "Is everything you said true?"
These words were simply an insult to his ability to inquire for information.
Sun Zhengde immediately stood up straight and said loudly: "Of course it is true. Sir, are you still worried about our abilities?"
Apart from other things, asking for information is a great skill.
Otherwise, how could he stay with Ye Zongcheng in the first place?
Is it all about loyalty?
joke.
Chu Ze nodded and asked again: "What about the Zhou Chen family?"
"This Zhou Chen family is a bit interesting. She is a widow, and she is also the kind of widow with a lively house. The man in her family died early, and she has no children. Even the land was planted by others. This Mr. Zhou Chen, you don’t have any other hobbies on weekdays. Apart from talking everywhere, all you can think about is money.”
After hearing this, Chu Ze understood.
This is just two money-hungry people colliding together.
That's simple.
Chu Ze suddenly had an idea in his mind.
He hooked his fingers towards Zhu Xi and whispered softly: "You do this... you do this again..."
After Chu Ze finished speaking, Zhu Xi turned around and gave Chu Ze a thumbs up, and then said three words without hesitation: "You are really hurt."
"Is this called harm? This is called killing two birds with one stone! If you can't speak, you can shut up." Chu Ze gave the other party a "friendly" middle finger.
