The news that a new urban district is set to be constructed in Zhenjiang Village has spread throughout Wucheng County these past days.

As villagers in Zhenjiang Village, naturally, they're the happiest, yet many have begun calculating their moves.

Many are aware that for land relocation compensation, the amount ultimately depends on one's land and population.

Since the household contract responsibility system introduced during the reform and opening-up, land has been allocated mainly based on population, and it is largely fixed.

Thus, many villagers have started calculating based on population, while others are also considering changes in land cultivation attachments and how to increase ancillary facilities.

However, Lin Hao isn't anxious at all; he has already grasped the preliminary survey work and the village population and land information.

Perhaps due to the news of the new urban district, Lin Hao's phone has received numerous text invitations for meals.

Lin Hao politely declines, making excuses about being too busy with work, and he dares not accept any supposed gratitude fees or hardship allowances.

Though he's refused many people and enterprises, it has allowed them to reevaluate this incorruptible County Magistrate Lin.

At two in the afternoon, an official vehicle entered the courtyard of Zhenjiang Village Committee, and Lin Hao and Lu Xiaodan stepped out of the car.

"County Magistrate Lin, I am Zhang Ping, Secretary of the Fuhua Town Party Committee, we've met in meetings before." Zhang Ping, Secretary of the Fuhua Town Party Committee, strided forward and offered his hand initiatevely.

"Secretary Zhang, I remember you!" Lin Hao shook his hand politely, seemingly recalling him.

Hearing Lin Hao remember him, Zhang Ping was instantly delighted, smiling as he said, "Welcome, welcome..."

"County Magistrate Lin, I am Wu Yuxian, Mayor of Fuhua Town, welcome, welcome!" Wu Yuxian, Mayor of Fuhua Town, introduced himself at the side.

"Mayor Wu, hello!" Lin Hao shook hands with him in greeting.

The Secretary of Zhenjiang Village, Ruan Qinggui, and Village Chief Jiang Wutian had met with Lin Hao previously during his visit, and now approached to greet him.

After a round of pleasantries, they entered the meeting room, which was packed with villagers waiting for County Magistrate Lin.

"Dear villagers, this is our Deputy County Magistrate of Wucheng County, Lin Hao, everyone, welcome!" Ruan Qinggui, Secretary of Zhenjiang Village, introduced loudly.

"Welcome, welcome..." The villagers enthusiastically clapped.

Lin Hao had no choice but to join in the applause, waving to everyone, and when the clapping subsided, he loudly spoke, "Hello, folks! My visit this time is mainly about the new urban district construction, please sit down, and let's discuss slowly..."

"County Magistrate Lin, are we going to be relocated from Zhenjiang Village?" a villager shouted.

"Yes, Zhenjiang Village will indeed be relocated, my visit today is to discuss the land relocation compensation plan with you..." Lin Hao responded loudly.

Upon hearing the definitive news, a commotion erupted below, but from the villagers' faces, many were clearly pleased.

However, a small portion of people didn't look satisfied.

Lin Hao knew very well that these farmers have lived on this land for generations, and asking them to give up their land isn't easy.

Of course, some are willing to give up the land, yet they're likely dissatisfied with the compensation amount, perhaps even asking for exorbitant sums.

"Everyone, quiet down! Listen to County Magistrate Lin speak." Ruan Qinggui, Secretary of Zhenjiang Village, shouted.

The meeting room quieted again, allowing Lin Hao to continue his speech.

"Fellow villagers, just today, the County Commission for Discipline Inspection announced the penalties for the corruption during land relocation compensation in Longwan Village, Qingquan Town, involving town party leaders and village group leaders, I believe many are aware..."

"I'm here this time to openly discuss the land relocation compensation plan with you, we aim to optimize and adjust the compensation plan based on Wuning City and our Wucheng County..."

"Moreover, as soon as the compensation plan is approved, the relocation compensation process will promptly commence, and we hope the villagers can cooperate with the government's work..."

"This new urban district is a crucial part of Wucheng County's economic development, and we hope village and town leaders actively carry out the work, ensuring no corruption occurs during the compensation process..."

Lin Hao delivered his speech and distributed the land relocation compensation plans for Wuning City and Wucheng County, allowing villagers to get a sense of the situation.

Immediately following, Zhang Ping, Secretary of Fuhua Town Party Committee, and Ruan Qinggui, Secretary of Zhenjiang Village, also stepped forward to support the county government's new urban district project, pledging to remain disciplined and combat corruption.

Though they might be insincere, having just witnessed several leaders punished with potential imprisonment, they're unlikely to step out of line now.

Afterwards, Lin Hao divided the villagers into groups for discussion, selecting their representatives to collect opinions and compile them.

This process was lengthy, extending to past six o'clock, barely managing to collect opinions from all sides.

Lin Hao decided to initially research the villagers' demands, then deal with specific situations accordingly, delegating this task to the village and town party committees.

Ultimately, the compensation work requires their involvement, and they understand the situation better, potentially formulating superior plans.

"Secretary Zhang, Secretary Ruan, after compiling these opinions, analyze them thoroughly and formulate a specific plan to submit to me." Lin Hao finally assigned the task to the two secretaries.

"County Magistrate Lin, when is the plan needed?" Secretary Zhang inquired.

"The sooner the plan, the better, ideally before the weekend." Lin Hao didn't set a strict timeline, wanting to gauge their abilities.

"Okay." The two secretaries replied.

"Once the land relocation compensation work is completed, I'll ensure special rewards are applied for the village and town leaders, so exert your efforts." Lin Hao concluded encouragingly.

"Rest assured, County Magistrate Lin, we will give it our all." The two secretaries and other village and town leaders responded joyfully.

Though corruption isn't feasible now, if rewards are possible, they serve as an incentive, motivating them further.

"County Magistrate Lin, it's mealtime now, I've arranged dinner, how about having a meal before heading back?" Secretary Zhang invited.

"No need for dinner, do your work well, feel free to find me at the county government for any issues." Lin Hao said before getting into the car.

As Deputy County Magistrate, Lin Hao's visit was official, and the Fuhua Town Government's dinner arrangement was a routine reception procedure.

However, this Deputy County Magistrate wouldn't even stay for a meal, demonstrating clearly he's a good official, further raising everyone's evaluation of him.
