Huh? Isn't this an adventure kingdom building game?! Chapter 876 - 792: The Past (2)

"Actually, I’m really quite pitiful, truly!" He started off with self-pity, but Li Tiezhu and Mu Mian, being battle-hardened, were immune and urged him to get to the point quickly.

"My na is Guo Quanzhi, I’m a resident of the forr Da Guo Village in the eastern suburbs." Water Ghost, pinned down by Tiger’s claws, sighed and reminisced, "Twenty years ago, the area that is now Poshui Park and the Science and Technology Park was all land belonging to our Da Guo Village. We were still growing crops there.

About eighteen or nineteen years ago, there were rumors in the village about demolition. Based on the original hostead and household count, not only would we be given several housing units for relocation, but we’d also receive a chunk of demolition compensation. Who wouldn’t be happy about such a favorable thing as demolition?

But for about two years, there was no movent despite the clamor. We got greedy and when we heard the compensation was calculated per square ter, we went crazy with adding on asbestos sheds, hoping they would count more at that ti.

I even built a factory in the old yard and started raising chickens, thinking they’d pay as a chicken farm and I’d earn even more!"

He paused for a mont, then added, "Nowadays they have experience with demolitions, they don’t count such things, but back then they did. I also had a large family; our household registration wasn’t split up, all on one registration book.

My parents had us two brothers.

When my brother was young, he played with fire and burnt over half his face; his right arm was amputated, looking disabled and frightening, he never married.

I got married and had three sons; they all grew up and got their own kids, so there are eleven people on the registration book who can share the money!

But the village’s hosteads, including my parents’ old house and the new foundations I bought for the kids, are all in my na. When the hostead placent housing and demolition funds co, they’re all deposited into my bank account.

At that ti, I planned to split the family when the placent housing ca.

Parents could have a smaller one for retirent, my wife and I could have a bigger one to live with my brother. The sons’ families each get one, and the rest would be rented out. The rent would be enough for us to support my brother and the two elders.

Demolition compensation divided per person, the registration would be split up, and each household head could use the money as they saw fit.

With rental inco guaranteed, the four of us elders wouldn’t need them to give us money to retire. When the parents pass, we would be seventy or eighty, then we’d split the houses detail by detail to ensure at least our retirent security."

"The plan is pretty good, nothing wrong with the division." Li Tiezhu sipped his tea.

Grandpa Huang didn’t stop him, seemingly it wasn’t so good tea, he looked at the other with a complex expression, thinking this is likely soone with thin fortune who couldn’t handle wealth. An enviable family who got transford into Water Ghost, it must have been a conflict over money.

Guo Quanzhi nearly cried hearing the objective evaluation, "I also felt it was fair and secure this way. Otherwise, three sons, four elders, and one disabled person, the retirent wouldn’t be easy!

But when I told them this plan, everyone opposed it.

At that ti, the old man was over eighty, still wanting to hold the family’s financial power, saying all these were family assets he accumulated, we were raised by them, so he wouldn’t be assured unless the houses and money went under his na;

My brother Guo Quanmin said he’s nearly lived a lifeti without a wife, all the good things at ho are given to , helping raise sons, he needs three houses for compensation, to spend big demolition money to marry a young bride in her twenties to enjoy life;

The three sons said they all have sons and daughters too, one house isn’t enough; it should be divided per kid head, grandson and granddaughter each get one.

The one with one kid felt those with two were taking advantage, Guo Quanmin started accounting with , saying he didn’t marry and have kids, my parents’ property already lets enjoy the benefit; old father said the old yard’s chicken farm special subsidy must be his...

Demolition hadn’t even started, the family was already arguing and fighting.

One day we agreed to divide like this, tomorrow that way again. Finally, it was decided—divide into six families: parents, and my wife, Guo Quanmin, and the three kids. When the property and money arrive, equally split into six shares, draw lots to see what each gets."

Thinking of what happened at ho, Guo Quanzhi wiped his tears, "Logically, no matter how you divide, with houses and money, life would be good.

Finally, when demolition ca, the placent housing had to wait, but the money arrived on ti. I’d never seen so much money in my life, the whole family was greatly stimulated, imdiately changed their minds, saying to split the money now, draw lots for housing later.

No matter how hard I tried, they insisted, so I had no choice but to split the money first.

After the money was divided, less than two months later, the youngest son quit his job, thinking he now had money, wanted to take his wife and kid traveling across the country, to enjoy life.

When my old mother heard, she said it was just in ti for the temple fair on the mountain, hadn’t been for several years, called my wife to go with her sitting in the little grandson’s new car.

The two of them, plus the youngest son, daughter-in-law, and five-year-old granddaughter, five people went joyfully to attend the temple fair on the mountain. On their way back, they were rear-ended by a truck and all were gone.

At that ti, I was numb, my head was buzzing, just thinking I couldn’t fall, this family needed as the backbone to get through. I forced myself to finish the funeral, the compensation, and the wealth left by the youngest son’s family, again, all money.

The eldest son managed it, divided just like last ti!"

Huang San vaguely guessed what happened, clicked his tongue and sighed, "Too much money without a fortune to hold it is a root of disaster."

"Who says it’s not so." Guo Quanzhi nodded, "We were in a deadlock for a while, family relations very tense. One day, the old man and Guo Quanmin brought wine and dishes over, also invited the two sons, saying they’re the hosts to diate. I believed them.
