Chapter 22 - Chapter 22: Ugly Words First

Don't doubt it!The facilities of the project cost nearly three times the project fee, which is definitely not as exaggerated as imagined.Apart from other things, the infrastructure on the dock alone is an astronomical figure.The cranes on the dock, including many automated equipment, are not ordinary expensive.Even so.After the construction is completed in the future, to make the dock operate, Zhang Heng will need to purchase a lot of forklifts and freight trucks.It is also a huge expense.However, no matter how much the investment is, he can't say how excited he is when he sees the construction site in full swing.This morning, after washing up, he was about to go to the construction site, but he was called as soon as he left the door."Xiao Heng!""Oh... Third Uncle!"Zhang Heng was stunned, then immediately understood that what was coming would come: "You get up so early too?""I'm old, I don't sleep much!"Third Uncle looked kind, and he didn't care much about his face when he was old, so he went straight to the point: "I saw the abandoned wharf in our village, and I heard it was reclaimed, and the surrounding land was also expropriated.That piece of land has become a large construction site.What is being built?""I think what you want to ask is about the construction site?"Zhang Heng directly exposed it, not wanting to argue: "Yes, I am the one who requisitioned the land, and the wharf is only part of it. Our village has 2,700 acres of wasteland, and all of them will be requisitioned, 50,000 yuan per acre.""When the time comes... I will directly transfer the money to each villager's account, and there will be no transfer in the middle.""As for the construction site, I contracted it out to a large state-owned enterprise. If someone in the village wants to make a move on the construction site, it's useless to find me, you can go directly to the construction site.""They also recruit workers locally, young and strong, and they will recruit anyone who meets their requirements. It's useless to find me in this regard, and I won't care, let alone ask me to intercede."Zhang Heng had a cold face and directly showed his attitude. "This... In our village, all the people with the same surname came from the same ancestor hundreds of years ago. During the Qingming Festival, the whole village would sweep the tomb together."The Third Uncle did not say anything harsh, but appealed to his emotions and reasoned with him: "Broken bones are still connected, don't you think?""Haha... Third Uncle, you are so nice."Zhang Heng curled his lips in disdain.If he did not show this attitude, there would be more troubles in the future: "Let's not talk about the distant ones, let's talk about the recent ones.My parents passed away unexpectedly, and I handled the funeral affairs...It's not necessarily that the broken bones are still connected?""Third Uncle, if I remember correctly, you are still my grandfather's cousin, right? Not out of the five generations, right? Didn't I see you help me and preside over it?" Zhang Heng had been patient for a long time, and now he was no longer polite."I'm not... old." No matter how thick-skinned the Third Uncle was, he was extremely embarrassed."Three months, you presided over the funeral of Zhang Wu's family from beginning to end!" Zhang Heng didn't give him any face."..." Third uncle was silent, because these were all facts, he was angry in his heart, angry that a younger generation did not respect him as an elder."I'll make a direct statement about the land acquisition. I'm just a middleman. I'll pay the full amount because my last name is Zhang and I recognize you as a child of Zhangjia Village. There's nothing else to say."Zhang Heng simply laid out his words. He had to say it out loud: "I've done my best. And... in the future, when my company is established, people in the village want to take advantage of me. I advise them to save their energy.""I'll treat people fairly. If they're qualified, they can come in. But if they come here just because they have a last name, I'll fire them. If you want preferential treatment, give up as soon as possible.""Also, the things I sell are all precious gold items. If you're caught stealing, it won't be as simple as firing you. I'll handle it impartially. When the time comes, I'll catch them and sentence them.""That's all I have to say. Please convey it to me. After all, you're an elder in the village. Don't wait until then and say that I'm turning my back on you and breaking bones and tendons."Zhang Heng blocked all the back roads.He never believed that human nature is good, nor did he say that human nature is evil.He would not generalize, but at the same time, he would make the most malicious assumptions in this regard.It is inevitable that there are kind people in the village, but the most abundant are those who like to take advantage of others. If there is a chance to steal something from the company of his own villagers, it feels that it is not a big deal even if he is discovered.With the spread of this idea, what else will not happen?…
