Chapter 107 Paying Liquidated Damages

"If we change from requisition to lease, much less money will be used, and the finances of Lianhua Town will be able to afford it."

Chen Feng explained concisely.

"This method is good, but the problem is that leasing is unstable. If someone goes back on their word mid-way and refuses to lease, it will greatly affect the warehouse logistics."

Qin Yan hit the nail on the head with her counter-question.

"Town Mayor Qin, ginger is indeed old and spicy, hitting the mark with one sentence. Leasing has obvious benefits, but its drawbacks are also obvious, namely the excessive uncertainty. However, it's alright, I have a way to handle the uncertainty of leasing."

Chen Feng replied with confidence.

"You have a way to handle the uncertainty of leasing? That's unlikely. To be honest, in all my time managing economic affairs, I've never met anyone who could resolve the uncertainty of leasing. This is an unwritten economic rule, and it's difficult for individuals to interfere."

Qin Yan said with a look of doubt.

"If there's no idea, the uncertainty of leasing is indeed difficult to grasp, after all, unwritten economic rules are deeply entrenched. However, if an idea is found, the matter can be easily resolved. My idea is to give these farmers who are leasing land for warehouses a stake in the logistics park."

Chen Feng replied calmly.

Upon hearing this, Qin Yan's eyes instantly shot out a sharp glint.

Chen Feng's method was simply brilliant!

It cleverly used economic methods to resolve an unwritten economic rule.

To put it bluntly, it linked these farmers who leased land to the profits of the logistics park.

If the logistics park performed poorly, they wouldn't earn extra money.

If the logistics park performed well, they would earn extra money.

This invisibly tied them tightly to the Lianhua Town Technology and Hardware City project!

"Giving the farmers a stake is a good method, I agree to implement it."

Qin Yan said excitedly.

"Town Mayor Qin, this is precisely why I came to see you this time. We cannot force the coastal bosses to give the farmers shares. That would not be in line with a market economy. If we are to give shares, we can only distribute the shares that you and I hold to the farmers."

Chen Feng ventured.

To be honest, whether Qin Yan was willing to give up her shares was an unknown. After all, she held a significant number of shares in the Lianhua Town Technology and Hardware City project this time.

"Chen Feng, I hold quite a few shares in the Lianhua Town Technology and Hardware City. It's quite a sacrifice to give them all away to others. People, after all, don't dislike money. Therefore, you must give me your reasons and see if they can move me."

Qin Yan looked at Chen Feng sternly.

"Town Mayor Qin, I understand your feelings because I have the same feelings. Everyone likes money. However, you are different from ordinary people; you are destined for the political arenas of Jiangcheng and the provincial capital. You wouldn't cling to such minor benefits. You must give to receive, a principle you understand better than I do. If you are willing to let go of your shares in the Lianhua Town Technology and Hardware City, then Lianhua Town can merge with Mingshan Town very soon. With such a large new Mingshan Town appearing, why would you fear not having places to make money?"

Chen Feng patiently persuaded Qin Yan.

"You have successfully convinced me. I am willing to give up my shares in the Lianhua Town Technology and Hardware City without compensation. If you have such great political awareness, there's no reason why I shouldn't."

Qin Yan said with a hearty laugh.

And so, the super-large logistics park for the Lianhua Town Technology and Hardware City project was built.

This operation completely stunned the coastal bosses.

To be honest, the ambition of this young man, Chen Feng, was something that even the big figures in Jiangcheng might not possess.

He was a person destined for great things!

"Chen Feng, all the difficulties for the Lianhua Town Technology and Hardware City have been resolved. Will Mingshan Town and Lianhua Town merge immediately?"

Cheng Lu, after finishing her work with the women of Lianhua Town, specifically went to find Chen Feng and asked excitedly.

"Theoretically, yes."

Chen Feng replied calmly.

"What do you mean theoretically?"

Cheng Lu asked with confusion.

"Miss Cheng, you have been in politics for quite some time and should know that politics is very complex; it's not simple mathematical logic. In mathematics, one plus one definitely equals two. However, in politics, it doesn't necessarily equal two; it could become zero due to unforeseen circumstances."

Chen Feng explained.

"I understand that politics is complex. However, I have carefully reviewed the matter, and the preparatory work for the merger in Lianhua Town has been very meticulous and thorough. There shouldn't be any unforeseen issues."

Cheng Lu replied with a lack of confidence.

"Let's hope so."

Chen Feng smiled and replied.

Just as Cheng Lu was about to retort with "Naturally," Deputy Town Mayor Hong rushed in in a panic.

"Deputy Town Mayor Chen, something has gone wrong. A large group of farmers are heading towards the town government."

Deputy Town Mayor Hong said, panting.

"Deputy Town Mayor Hong, don't rush, speak slowly. What exactly happened?"

"I heard it's about the demolition of graves. These farmers are not satisfied."

Deputy Town Mayor Hong explained.

"Not satisfied? Wasn't it already settled? Why are they not satisfied?"

Chen Feng was bewildered.

"It was settled, but as you know, farmers like to take advantage of small benefits. They feel that graves are different from other land, so they want to increase the compensation for demolition to earn more money. Therefore, a group of people are coming to the town government to apply pressure."

"I understand. I'll handle this matter."

Chen Feng said calmly.

"Chen Feng, are you genuinely foolish or pretending to be?"

After Deputy Town Mayor Hong left, Cheng Lu asked Chen Feng with a depressed look.

"What's wrong?"

"Originally, this matter was handled by Deputy Town Mayor Hong. But he deliberately came to you to dump this hot potato on you. You should have refused, but you accepted. It's very difficult to deal with so many farmers causing trouble."

Cheng Lu continued to explain with a depressed look.

"I'm not an idiot, of course, I know that. But the problem is, I cannot push this matter away. If this group is allowed to cause trouble, the Lianhua Town Technology and Hardware City project will be ruined."

Chen Feng explained seriously.

"I know your thoughts, but the problem is, how do you deal with this group that has come aggressively?"

Cheng Lu asked with worry.

"Just call the police to handle it."

Chen Feng replied calmly.

"Call the police to handle it?"

"Yes, call the police to handle it! The contract for grave demolition has been signed, and it must be executed according to the contract, whether they are farmers or not. If they abide by the contract, it's fine. If they don't abide by the contract, they will either have to pay liquidated damages and cancel the contract. If they don't want to pay liquidated damages or cancel the contract but want to increase the price, then I'm sorry, they'll have to spend a few days in the detention center."

Chen Feng said solemnly.

"So tough? Can you do that?"

Cheng Lu looked at Chen Feng incredulously.

She never expected that Chen Feng, who usually handled matters gently and courteously, would also have such a tough side.

"On matters of principle, one must be firm!"

Chen Feng's attitude was resolute.

"What if this group of farmers collectively resist the law? Won't the law overlook the masses, and they'll push you out as a scapegoat?"

Cheng Lu asked cautiously, probing.
