Chapter 563 Negotiation and Calculation

After Zhang Fu and his party left Doka Village, after nearly a day's trek, they finally arrived at Xewaka Village before dark. Then, under the arrangements of the local administrators, they immediately began to negotiate with the main village representatives and collected information. A series of demands and opinions were expressed to them, and they expressed their willingness to use nuclear bombs to reconstruct river channels nearby.

Just as Qinghao thought, this plan was immediately opposed by the villagers as soon as it was proposed. They did not really think too much about it, but just like the villagers of Doka Village, they instinctively rejected the "nuclear bomb" this concept.

Qinghao tried to explain the principle of nuclear bomb explosions and the reasons why they preferred to use nuclear bombs, but it was obvious that such explanations were completely useless in front of villagers with low education levels.

Just when he was about to give up persuasion and announce that nuclear explosion was only an alternative, Zhang Fu suddenly patted the back of his hand, then sat down at the table and said:

"Everyone, you are worried about the impact of a nuclear bomb explosion, and we know that."

"Nuclear bombs are definitely dangerous, as you think, and there will definitely be some bad 'sequelae'."

Before Zhang Fu finished speaking, Qing Hao turned to look at him in surprise. He didn't understand why Zhang Fu made such a statement that was completely contrary to the facts.

Isn't this equivalent to acknowledging the villagers' anti-scientific doubts? Isn't this tantamount to declaring that one's own plan is illegal?

If it is unfair in itself, how can we convince the villagers to accept it, and how can we implement the plan here and set an example for Doka Village?

Before he could stop him, Zhang Fu continued.

"So, we have considered the additional losses that the use of nuclear bombs will cause you, and the survey team has applied to the superiors to give you some policy compensation."

"The scope of compensation has not been officially finalized. This time we are here to discuss and collect suggestions from you."

"To put it bluntly, the theme of today's meeting is very simple. In our crudest terms, there is only one sentence: What do you want so that we can use nuclear bombs?"

Upon hearing this, all the village representatives in the room were stunned.

It’s not that they haven’t had contact with official personnel. As an emerging tourist check-in location, Xewaka Village has not seen much traffic, but there have been many tourism renovation projects in recent years, including land acquisition and infrastructure projects. Villagers participate.

It can be said that they have rich experience in dealing with official personnel, but now, the way this so-called "leader of the survey team" speaks is still beyond their understanding.

How can any official say this?

In their past experience, every time officials mentioned things like conditions, interests, etc., they always hid it, wishing they could say seven or eight ambiguities in one sentence, so as not to be caught by someone who expressed it too absolutely.

And now?

The young man opposite actually said directly, "What do I need to let him use a nuclear bomb?"

Then there are too many things they want.

After a brief silence, the village representatives began to chatter.

"The roads in our village still need to be repaired. Many places are covered with dirt roads. It will not be convenient for tourists to come by then!"

"Yes, not only the roads, but also the street lights need to be repaired, right? It's dark at night and the lights are not bright!"

"Yes, yes, there are also tourist facilities waiting to catch up. Develop the lawn next to it. I saw that many of the short videos included a staircase on the lawn. It will look good when taking pictures. We must have it here too. One!"

"Let's lay out the lawn, and the woods over there can also be developed. Let's build a camping base!"

Zhang Fu recorded in his notebook while listening. At the beginning, the demands put forward by the villagers were quite reasonable and were basically directly related to tourism development. Even if there was no need for exchange, this was considered a normal policy trend and business logic.

But as they talked and saw that Zhang Fu had no rebuttal, the demands put forward by the villagers suddenly began to change.

Becoming more and more radical - or in other words, more and more aggressive.

"We should build one or two high-end hotels and B\u0026Bs here, but we have to let local people be the bosses. This will not only solve our employment problem, but also increase the attraction to tourists."

"Should the state help us pay for the hotel construction, right? No, I'm not saying that the state will pay for it for free and just provide us with a loan."

"Or if the state builds it, our technology can become a shareholder!"

"Yes, the hotel must be built, and do the private houses in our village also need to be renovated? You see, many houses are dilapidated and do not match the environment around us."

"My house needs to be renovated."

"Not only the tourism industry, but also the animal husbandry industry needs to be given some policies, right? Can the country allocate a group of cattle and sheep to distribute to everyone?"

"Is there an interest-free loan policy?"

"Are there any subsidies for children to go to school?"

There were so many demands one after another that Zhang Fu could no longer remember them all. He simply took out his cell phone and turned on the recording mode in front of everyone, and then started to talk to them.

"The hotel issue needs to be discussed again. The number of tourists in Shewaka Village cannot support a large hotel now, but if you want to be self-reliant, this is a good starting point."

"Interest-free loans depend on the bank's policies. Regarding cattle and sheep, I'll report it to the superiors. We'll see the specific results later."

"As for subsidies for schooling, those who go to college already have loans and subsidies. This is definitely not possible. Do you have any objections?"

"No objection, no objection."

The village representatives replied in unison.

Many of the demands just made were actually just mentioned casually. If they agreed, they would gain. If they disagreed, they would lose nothing.

As long as a few core issues can be solved, such as repairing roads, providing subsidies and interest-free loans, and these real things are in place, there will be no need to worry about making money in the future.

After confirming all the demands of everyone, Zhang Fu gave feedback on these demands one by one. However, during the feedback process, he was extremely careful not to express any of his own opinions. He only emphasized repeatedly:

Everything we are doing now is just collecting. Whether it can be realized depends on the meaning above.

The village representatives expressed their understanding of his principle. In their view, the survey team is also a working people, and it is already very good to be able to achieve this step.

The discussion continued until late at night. After eating a simple supper, everyone left with satisfaction. As soon as the villagers dispersed, Qing Hao immediately pulled Zhang Fu and asked:

"Zhang Fu, if you draw such a big pie for them, can it be realized?"

Zhang Fu shook his head with a smile and replied:

"Most of it is impossible to achieve - there are certainly policies, but not to this extent."

"Then you're not worried?"

Seeing Qinghao's anxious expression, Zhang Fu was a little confused. After a moment of pause, he asked:

"Why should I worry? We never said that all our demands would be met!"

Hearing this, Qing Hao was speechless for a moment. He always felt that there was something missing in this series of events, and that something was wrong.

"If you don't satisfy them, how will we carry out the subsequent plans?"

"We can start executing it now."

Zhang Fu sat down at the table again, then looked up at Qing Hao and said:

"Didn't you notice that in the more than three hours of discussion just now, we didn't mention nuclear bombs once?"

"They no longer care about the nuclear bomb itself. Isn't that what we want to achieve?"

Qing Hao's expression suddenly froze. Looking at Zhang Fu who was full of confidence, he suddenly felt a chill rising from the bottom of his heart.

Yes, their goal has been achieved.

No matter how it develops in the future, as long as the survey team makes a little effort and releases the news that the negotiations in Shewaka Village are in progress, it will be enough to push the villagers of Doka Village to re-enter negotiations.

And isn't this what they want?
