We drank a lot that day, but no one drank too much, and we were all sober when we left. I usually don’t think my name is that good, but when they said that that day, I really felt that my parents were quite educated.
.
The next day, Xu Zhiguo asked for my ID card and said I was going to register a company. From then on, no one mentioned the company to me again. It wasn’t until that day when you showed me the contract signed by Encheng Company that I
I remembered that I had registered a company in my own name.
The villagers were opposed to the demolition at first, mainly because they did not want to live upstairs. They wanted to live in a house with a yard where they could raise chickens, pigs, grow vegetables, and burn firewood for cooking.
Xu Zhiguo and He Duo discussed this matter many times and thought of many ways. They promised that the villagers who sign the agreement first and those who move first will be rewarded, and they can choose the house first when the houses are divided. Xu Zhiguo privately gave them a relative comparison
People in the village started to sign agreements to move because they had some benefits from being close to families. When people in the village saw that some people had already started to move, they were afraid that they would not get the rewards, and in the end they would not be able to choose a good house, so they signed the agreements in droves.
There were also some stubborn villagers who were disobedient, so Xu Zhiguo asked me to scare them. When I met the tougher ones, I deliberately picked on them. None of the boys in the village were my match. If that didn't work, I would find some gangsters from society.
Throw two bricks into someone's house, or stop someone's family on the road and beat them up.
In this way, the whole village signed the agreement and began to measure the houses and prepare to move. Xu Zhiguo moved the old people's minds because after measuring the houses, the two of us drank at his house that night. He said to me:
"The compensation has been calculated. The total compensation for the five old men and women is more than 2 million."
"So many? They are all about to be buried, and there is no end to the flowers." I said.
"You know what the heck, logically their money should go to the village, and the village will raise them."
"How can we support them in the village? After the demolition, all the people left, and it will take time to move back." I said.
"That's right, it's quite a troublesome thing. If you do this, you won't get any benefits at all, and you'll get into trouble all the time."
"Is there no other way?" I asked.
"It's not impossible. I heard that when some villages were demolished, they sent all the lonely elderly people to nursing homes, so that the village would no longer have to take care of them."
"This is a good idea. Are there any nursing homes that want them?" I asked.
"You can drive me to Changtian County tomorrow. An old comrade of mine is the director of a nursing home. Let's go ask him."
The next day I drove Xu Zhiguo to the Kangde Nursing Home in Changtian County. The nursing home was halfway up the mountain. It took a long time to drive there. Han Jun, the director of the Kangde Nursing Home and Xu Zhiguo’s old comrade-in-arms, stayed with us for dinner.
, while eating, Xu Zhiguo asked about the elderly people entering nursing homes.
"Old Han, do you accept elderly people in your hospital?" Xu Zhiguo asked after taking a sip of wine.
"Yes, if they are local elderly people in our Changtian area who are qualified to enter a nursing home, the superiors will arrange for them to live in them. The superiors will allocate funds to us on a per-capita basis, and there is no need to pay."
"What? Is there anything else that needs to be paid? Aren't nursing homes funded by the higher authorities?"
"Yes, those who are local in Changtian and do not meet the requirements have to pay to come in. Even the elderly from other places who meet the requirements have to pay themselves if they want to come to our hospital."
"How many elderly people are there in our village? Can you accept them here?"
"Stop it, for your sake, Lao Xu, I have to accept it. Come on, let's have a drink. We brothers haven't had a drink together for a long time."
Xu Zhiguo picked up the wine glass and drank the rest of the wine and asked:
"How much does one have to pay?"
"The current standard is 2,000 yuan per person per month, including food, accommodation and nursing care. The hospital is responsible for daily medication and injections, but if you are sick and need to be hospitalized, you have to pay extra."
"Damn, is it so expensive? Are you a nursing home or a hotel?" Xu Zhiguo asked dissatisfied.
"Why is it so expensive? Even though the elderly don't eat much, they still have to have three meals a day. There are also water and electricity bills to pay, and nursing fees are also a huge amount. Most of the elderly have limited mobility, so they need to be taken care of."
They also have to wash their clothes, and everything costs a lot of money."
"We are old comrades in arms, can it be cheaper? I'll toast you." Xu Zhiguo said, picking up the wine glass.
"Old man, it's not cheap. This is the rule from above. I, the dean, can't be a householder."
"Then can we pay the money in full at once? Your birth, old age, sickness and death will all be yours, and we will no longer care about it from now on." Xu Zhiguo asked again.
"Someone has mentioned this method, and we have reported it to our superiors. But the leaders said that we are a formal nursing home in the country, and the purpose is not to make money, but to support the elderly. So they did not approve this matter."
After listening to Han Jun's explanation, Xu Zhiguo picked up his glass and said:
"Old Han, for the sake of our comrades-in-arms, you have to find a way for me to accept the elderly people in our village and make it cheaper for me."
Han Jun frowned and thought for a long time, and finally said:
"Let's do this. I'll send an application to my superiors tomorrow to see if I can give you some fee reductions."
We stayed in the nursing home for one night. Later, the two of them talked for half the night about things in the army. I drank some wine and felt sleepy, so I went to bed first.
The next day, Han Jun first called his superiors and asked for advice on the fees for the elderly to stay in nursing homes. Unexpectedly, his superiors said that there was a policy that could exempt elderly people from other places who met the policy by 200 yuan per month. Han Jun immediately put this
The good news was told to Xu Zhiguo.
"Then why don't you fill out a form and go through the admission procedures first? Then it will be more convenient to send them here." Xu Zhiguo asked happily.
Han Jun hesitated and said:
"Okay, let me write down the basic information first so that I can arrange a room for them in advance and then go through the formal procedures when they arrive."
Xu Zhiguo didn't say a word on the way home and just kept smoking. When he got home, he took a calculator and calculated for a long time, and then said to me:
"No, if we send them to a nursing home now, the village will have to subsidize money in 20 years. This does not include medical expenses. They are getting older and older. How can they not take injections and medicine? This is also a problem.
It’s not a small expense.”
After hearing this, I said:
"Then don't send them to a nursing home, just find a place to settle down, hire someone to cook and wash clothes for them, as long as they are not hungry."
"In this case, the money still has to be placed in the village. We cannot take the money out of the village. We have to find a way to take the money out of the village at once." Xu Zhiguo said.
"That's not easy. We just said we would send them to a nursing home and pay them all at once. Who knows whether they will actually be sent to a nursing home."
"But if someone wants to visit them in a nursing home, they'll be in trouble."
"If you don't tell them which nursing home it is, they can forget about it."
"I'm just afraid they'll cause trouble."
"Don't be afraid, I will fix whoever makes trouble."
"Well, this method works. We can also ask for more money from the village. Let's say that each person in the nursing home needs 600,000. If the money is not enough, the village will pay some." Xu Zhiguo said this with some excitement.
"That's 3 million for five people." I said in surprise at the time.
"But if we really rent a house, it would be troublesome to find someone to take care of them. It's best to find a simple solution." Xu Zhiguo said to himself.
We stopped talking about this topic that day. One night a few days later, Xu Zhiguo called me to the field ridge outside the village, handed me a cigarette, and said to me:
"Do you dare to ask you to do something big?"
I said of course I dare, tell me who to deal with, I will go immediately.
"Do you dare to kill someone?" Xu Zhiguo said coldly.
Dare you! I said dare without thinking at the time. I thought he was asking me to fix some disobedient villager, and he said he was going to kill someone, but in the end he was just trying to scare me.
"Take care of those five old guys and I'll give you a lot of money."
"What? Five old guys? You mean those five old guys?" I was immediately confused after hearing what he said.
"Then who else? Let's pull them out of the village, kill them on the way, and then find a place to bury them. This way we don't have to rent a house or find someone to take care of them." Xu Zhiguo threw the cigarette butt in the
Under your feet, crush it with your feet.
"This, is this okay?" I was really scared at the time. I killed five people, so it's okay. This is a serious crime of decapitation! Don't look at how I usually scream, if I really start to attack me
I really didn’t dare to be cruel. When I went in last time, I originally wanted to stab the kid in the waist with a knife, but in the end I stabbed him in the butt.
"Why not? It would be easier to kill them and avoid subsequent troubles."
"But, what if someone comes looking for me?" I really don't dare to kill anyone, not even one person, let alone five at once.
"Just tell them to send it to a nursing home. Don't tell them where it is and ask them to find it."
"But what if they really go looking for it?"
"These people don't have any relatives, so who would bother to look for them? That's how people are, no matter how big things are, they will be forgotten after a while, and no one will ask about them after a while."
"Well, that won't work either. I can't handle five people." I thought at that time that I couldn't do anything to kill anyone.
"Look, I'm scaring you! I've thought about it. I won't let you use the knife. I'll just put the medicine in the rice beforehand and let them eat it." Xu Zhiguo handed me another cigarette and lit it himself.
One.
After listening to what he said, I thought this was poison. Looking at his gloomy face, I suddenly felt that this brother-in-law was too cruel! It was so scary! It turned out that I thought I could deal with this person, but if I couldn't, I would give it to him.
It would be a bad idea to use a knife to play. But at that time, I completely gave up the idea. I really couldn't play with this person.
It turns out that I was also afraid of him, but that was because I was afraid that he would laugh at me, that he would not give me money, or that he would scold me in front of my wife. Now I am afraid that he will kill me someday. I dare not say that I will not do it.
I just wanted to make more money. He said that the village could give me 3 million yuan. I had to ask how much he would give me first:
"How much can you give me?"
"Fifty thousand per person, I'll give you 250,000." Xu Zhiguo replied.
"It's too little. This is a matter of killing people."
"You just drive them away and give them food on the way. You don't have to use a knife or a gun. 50,000 is a lot."
"That won't work. If you get caught, you will be beheaded. It's not worth it for this little money." I really didn't want to do it at this time. The whole 3 million yuan was not even enough for me.
