Bab 551: Expropriation

The National Investment Corporation and Qingkang Company worked together to use Stoneback Village as the radiation center and collect the fields of the surrounding dozen or so villages.

It was a levy, not a lease.

This was because Gu Qingming could plant space and spiritual spring water for at least an infinitely long time.

In order to avoid trouble, it would be easier for the country to administer them if they were collected directly.

However, during the process of collection, great difficulties were encountered.

The majority of those who remain in rural farming were the elderly.

These old people had all gone through hard times.

They did not have the skills to sustain themselves and relied on the land at home.

In the past, these lands had supported a large family and raised children. Their reliance on the land was equivalent to their lives.
