1983: From Land Sharing to Household Ownership

At half past seven in the morning, Wang Qiang walked out of the house.

After crossing the stone arch bridge and walking along the path for a while, I saw villagers from households, holding hoes, shovels and other tools, constantly gathering in the direction of the village committee.

They all looked excited, and their eyes were full of anticipation.

"Aqiang! Morning!"

"Aqiang, you are a real cow!"

"Aqiang, the whole village will soon be building roads and new houses, thanks to your role model!"...

The villagers along the way greeted Wang Qiang with great enthusiasm.

Wang Qiang didn't answer, just smiled and nodded, which was a return gift.

He walked briskly, and in less than ten minutes, he arrived at the location of the village committee.

In front of the village committee, a large number of people have gathered, and more and more people have gathered.

Wang Qiang walked straight to the gate of the village committee, and when he arrived here, he saw the old village chief and the cadres of the village committee standing at the door.

"Aqiang, you are here, please come in!"

The old village chief hurriedly stepped forward to say hello, turned his head and said to a cadre, "Little Li, go make tea!"

He led Wang Qiang into the courtyard of the village committee, and sat down at a large wooden table in the courtyard.

On the big wooden table, there is a large blueprint with a map of Jiangbei Village clearly marked on it. Among them are the plans of the two vertical and two horizontal roads for each of the four brigades.

Obviously, they were already ready and waiting for Wang Qiang to arrive.

These village committee cadres, including the old village chief, have at least ten years of experience in building basic water conservancy facilities.

In the previous period of the great construction of the whole people, without considerable practical experience, it was impossible to convince the public, and it was impossible to become a cadre.

In a word, the cadres of this period basically have real talents and practical learning, and they are not just people who want to be.

It was the old village chief and the other cadres who knew their skills and really wanted to benefit the villagers of Jiangbei Village. After being opened up by Wang Qiang, they unanimously agreed and promoted these two unprecedented big plans in the village.

Of course, only in the period when the whole village has just distributed the fields to the households, when the villagers' ideological awareness is high and everyone yearns for a better life, will they strongly agree with the decision of the village committee.

It can be said that when this round of construction of Jiangbei Village is completed, it is basically impossible for the outside world to copy.

The whole village is engaged in construction, and the villagers do not need wages. They also need to contribute their own money and efforts. Some people also need to go out of the fields and demolish their own houses?

In the 21st century, this would probably be treated like a lunatic.

"Aqiang, look at the plan of our village. Most of them are planned and formulated according to your suggestion at that time."

The time is very tight, and the construction of the whole village is about to start, and the old village chief is a little anxious.

"Well, I'll take a look at it first."

Wang Qiang stood on the edge of the big wooden table and looked intently.

At the level that he is now called the top master architect on earth, this kind of superficial blueprint can be checked in a short while.

"Village chief, these roads are uniformly constructed with a width of 12 meters, and the water conservancy facilities such as ditches and sewers on both sides look okay."

Wang Qiang pointed to a few corners, "Just, why don't you straighten these corners?"

"I think you haven't realized that after the construction of these roads in the village is completed, new houses will be built in the whole village, and all the old houses in the village will have to be demolished."

"This is equivalent to tearing down Jiangbei Village and rebuilding it!"

"Since it's knocking down and rebuilding, it's like drawing on a blank sheet of paper, so why don't we do our best?"

He shook his head speechlessly, "You have to consider the rational layout of the village in the future. After the new house is built, the whole village will have to move."

"In the future, all the villagers will live on both sides of the road, neatly stacked in rows, and the new houses will be clearly structured. One house is a must, and there will be no homesteads in other places, not even old houses. "

He picked up the paintbrush next to him, changed a few places on the drawing, then raised his head and said to the old village chief, "The government will not allow one family to have two legal homesteads in the future."

"There are people in the village. If a family wants two or three homesteads, it is a dream, and it will be too late to regret it in the future."

"So, for families with large populations, such as those with more than four members and two or more brothers, it is best to divide the family first and then build a house."

"In this way, villagers with a large family population can add one more legal homestead and a new house. In the future, they can use money, labor, etc. to calculate the value of the new house. After the major construction is completed, the liquidation will be carried out, and the more will be compensated for the less."

He gave his final suggestion, "It's better to build the roads in the village according to what I have changed. This is for everyone's convenience in the future, and it will not waste materials and labor."

"The road can be started first, but the construction of the house should be postponed."

"Every villager has many brothers, and the village committee will inform them to separate the family first, and then build a house together, which can reduce a lot of disputes and troubles in the future."

In his heart, he despised these guys from the village committee.

Because on the construction drawings, most of the areas that caused the road to turn deliberately were to preserve the old houses of these cadres.

"This……"

After hearing what Wang Qiang said, the old village chief and the others were a little dumbfounded.

It turned out that the place that needs to be changed is still on himself and others.

"Build a house after separation?"

The old village chief thought about it and finally figured out that this was Wang Qiang's solution to the current predicament.

yes!

Don't you deliberately want to stay in the old house just because there are many children in the family?

Now that you can get an extra homestead and a big villa by dividing your family in advance, it is reasonable and legal, although it will cost money, and if the money is not enough, you will have to pay it back in the future, but why not do it?

What he thought of, the cadres of the village committee on the side also thought of it.

"Yep!"

"Just do it!"

"Those roads in the village will start construction today, just follow Ah Qiang's revised and improved blueprints!"

"Our village committee will hold a meeting this evening to discuss it, and we will start to inform the villagers tomorrow morning that if the households meet the requirements for separation, they will be separated first, and then the houses will be built."

With a good solution to the problem, the awkward atmosphere at the scene was swept away immediately.

The old village chief and the other cadres of the village committee continued to discuss with Wang Qiang for more than ten minutes, and finally the plan for this large-scale construction of the whole village was completely settled.

The loudspeakers in the village continued to sound, and the cadre of the village committee responsible for broadcasting conveyed the order of the major construction to the responsible persons and the villagers.

The scene of nearly 20,000 men, women and children working together is reproduced in Jiangbei Village.

The difference is that it used to be compulsory collective labor, but now it is spontaneous collective labor.

The villagers of each household, some people contribute with strength, and those with money contribute money, and they are full of energy.

Of course, there are also some persons in charge designated by the village committee to be responsible for various registration work.

Labor, building materials, donations of household items, etc., must be registered for discounts, distributions, money repayments, etc.

After everyone started the vigorous construction, Wang Qiang quietly returned to his home.

He will not personally participate in the major construction activities in the village, nor does he want to participate.

It is his job to do a good job of his own ecological farm.
