Reborn in 1994, escaping from marriage and going sea fishing, I won!

Assistant Xiao Han set up an office at the ornamental fish farm to handle the sales of pearl oysters.

First, we have to hire villagers on the island to catch pearl oysters.

They are graded according to size, set different prices, and then sold.

Once the fish are fished out, they will be transferred to the islands and reefs contracted by the farmers as soon as possible. With Xiao Han and Xiao Wang in charge, Liu Meilan doesn't have to worry about it.

Only by letting people below do the work can Liu Meilan have some free time. Doing everything herself would tire her to death.

On Sanlian Island, Liu Meixiang and her family were full of doubts.

"Village chief, why didn't you tell us about the demolition?" Uncle Liu asked. Every time he came back, he would come to sit with the village chief and give him a few packs of good cigarettes.

But the village chief didn't say anything.

Seeing that Uncle Liu was angry, Village Chief Liu looked outside and said in a low voice, "No wonder you always suffer losses. You are indeed not as smart as your eldest brother. I didn't inform you because I didn't want your family to be too happy and make it difficult for me."

Aunt Liu was puzzled: "Village Chief, what do you mean?"

Village Chief Liu took out a notebook and handed it to Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu: "Look, your demolition area includes not only your homestead and farmland, but also your parents' homestead. As for your parents' land, you brothers divided it up earlier."

Uncle Liu was dumbfounded: "Then won't I get more?"

"Of course." replied Village Chief Liu.

“But shouldn’t you have told us in advance and let us sign?” Aunt Liu was very puzzled. What if Liu Fugui snatched it away at the last minute?

Village Chief Liu narrowed his eyes and said, "My son is also going to your mother's house for a banquet. When he sees you, he will bring you back. Liu Fugui's family is also coming back today. Once you sign, it cannot be changed."

Uncle Liu saw the signatures of others, and then looked at his own money, which was one third more than that of his eldest brother's family and more than that of other families. He immediately signed: "Village Chief, thank you."

"You're welcome!" Village Chief Liu replied, "I was just worried that your eldest brother would make a scene if he knew about it. I was also worried that someone in the village would tell your eldest brother about your extra compensation, so I kept the matter under wraps."

Aunt Liu thanked her and said, "Village Chief, we misunderstood you just now. Sorry!"

Village Chief Liu waved his hand and said, "You two children are both honest and simple-minded. When your parents were sick, Liu Fugui and Yang Xiaolian didn't care at all. They didn't contribute money or effort, but in the end, you two took good care of your parents and sent them off in a dignified manner."

"Before your father-in-law passed away, he called me and several people from the group over and gave the house to your second wife in front of you two brothers. It was all written down in black and white, and it finally came in handy this time."

Uncle Liu was stunned when he heard this, and then he remembered this: "Alas, when we took care of our parents, we didn't think about getting anything from them! We just thought about being children. Our parents raised us, so we should respect them and send them off with dignity."

"Yes! Normal people do this!" Village Chief Liu nodded, "But your eldest brother and sister-in-law are nothing. They are not filial at all. I want to see whether their children will support them in the end when they are old!"

"The village chief came back in a hurry this time and didn't bring you good wine. I will definitely bring you more next time I come back." Uncle Liu said with a smile.

Village Chief Liu waved his hand: "You're welcome. This is what I should do! By the way, do you want money or a house?"

Uncle Liu replied: "Today on the bus, I met Meilan. I heard that after our house was demolished, we also considered this issue. After asking Meilan, she told us to ask for money."

"Just money? No house or shop?" asked Village Chief Liu.

Uncle Liu shook his head: "No! Even if we develop our island, the housing prices in the future will not be higher than in the city! After we get the money, we can buy houses and shops in the city, which is more cost-effective than buying them on the island."

"Besides, for such a large project, who knows how long it will take to complete? Our Sanlian Island is close to Sifang Island. If the construction here hinders the construction on Sifang Island, it is not certain whether it can proceed."

"So Meilan suggested that we ask for money directly and then go to the city to buy a house and a shop. With the economic development, more and more people are integrating into the city, and our children will also live in the city in the future, so we don't need a house here."

Village Chief Liu nodded and said, "Since you don't want the house, when you sign the contract this afternoon, just sign the one that only requires the money."

Uncle Liu asked: "Village Chief, do you want money or a house?"

Village chief Liu is over 60 years old and has lived on Sanlian Island all his life. He has a very deep affection for this place.

He had made up his mind that even if he died, he would die on Sanlian Island and be buried here.

"Your aunt and I are planning to buy a shop and a two-bedroom house! I am old and don't have such great ambitions. I want to live on the familiar land of one acre and three mu. The rest will be paid for! We will keep one third and the rest will be divided among the two children."

"Most people in the village are going to get money to buy houses and shops in the city. We old guys are staying here. If you feel homesick, you can come back to visit. You won't come back without knowing anyone you know!"

Uncle Liu felt sad, but he had to make a choice as his future life would be in the city even if he was reluctant.

Liu Fugui was having dinner at this time. Yang Xiaolian came over angrily and said, "Fugui, your parents' large residential land can also be demolished for a lot of money! Now it's all on the second son's head. Our family is at a great disadvantage! Our parents are the parents of both of our families. Why should only the second son get the advantage?"

Liu Fugui smiled and said, "After I finish my meal, I will go find him and ask him to give me back the money. He must give me half of it."

"You are the eldest son, and the eldest son should get a bigger share!" Yang Xiaolian reminded, "You can't be soft-hearted and give the benefits you have obtained to the second wife."

Liu Fugui smiled proudly: "I can handle the second brother easily. It's not that easy! My little brother has never been able to escape from my control since he was a child!"

Liu Xiangnan, who was carrying food into the house, echoed, "Yes, Dad! Grandpa and grandma's homestead is bigger than ours, and there's a little private land in front, which can be compensated with a lot of money!"

"After we get the money, we'll buy a shop in the city and rent it out! Let the money make money, and even if we don't work in the future, we can still collect rent."

At this time, Liu Xiangbei walked in with a bowl. After hearing the conversation between his parents and his eldest brother, the smile on his face faded a little.

"Mom, Dad, Big Brother, have you forgotten that it was Second Uncle who provided for Grandpa and Grandma in their old age? I vaguely remember that before Grandpa passed away, he gave the house to Second Uncle in front of the village cadres and clan members. Why do you want it now? Because you are unreasonable or because you are a rogue?"
