Chapter 274: The Historic Site Was Destroyed
Chapter 274: Historical ruins were destroyed
The so-called open construction of a plank road and secretly crossing Chencang is the reason why Tang Xueqian used the excuse of prominent demolition contradictions in the city to delay the demolition to the east of Shatin; Song Peiming used the excuse of improving the city's image as an excuse to partially repair the buildings along the street on the north side of the Qian Street in the south of the city to develop its commercial value; the Institute of Ancient Architecture and the Institute of Architecture of Haida University to increase research on the Shatin building complex, explore historical value, and strive to form a certain academic impact; some representative buildings were selected to introduce private funds to invest in the property rights of ancient houses, and conduct exemplary restoration.
As long as these things are done in two years, who would want to demolish the buildings in Shatin East again? In addition to considering the demolition cost, they also have to consider where the public opinion is blew towards.
Of course, it is not so easy to accomplish these things. Song Peiming looked at Zhang Ke and said, "It's good to arrange this way, but unfortunately the district's finances are not as abundant as you think. Jinhu will not consider acquiring Xinguang Factory in the near future?"
Although the plates of Xinguang Factory look large, a considerable part of them are bank loans. They can eat Xinguang Factory for about 30 million yuan, and will not cause the district government to suffer losses. In other words, Haiyu and Yuexiu have to take out 20 million yuan in cash.
Zhang Ke shook his head and said, "There is not so much spare money now, and the district does not need to invest all the money in at once. Give Kumho a quarterly buffer. We will consider acquiring Xinguang Factory at the end of next spring."
The agreement between Kumho and Chintai Group requires that a 40% acquisition be completed within one year and 80% acquisition be completed within two years. The most recent term is around the Mid-Autumn Festival next year, so there is no need to worry at that time.
Xu Hongbo said: "There is a department that can be retained in the east section of Shatin. Many of the work can be supported by them, and the result will be twice as good as half the effort..."
Zhang Ke knew that Xu Hongbo was talking about the Cultural Relics Bureau, and Tang Xueqian quickly guessed: "Are you talking about the Cultural Relics Bureau?"
Song Peiming smiled and said, "If the turtle sons from the Cultural Relics Bureau do not take the lead in razing the ground there, can you still count on them? If you really want to count on the Cultural Relics Bureau, you have to replace all the turtle sons..."
"It's a bit difficult to exchange all of them..." Zhang Ke took the lead in this matter, and Zhang Zhixing rarely spoke, and only then did he express his opinions.
Zhang Ke said: "The demolition companies under the Cultural Relics Bureau have problems. First, there are illegal demolitions. Secondly, there are some financial problems. They may transfer the huge profits from the demolition to private joint stock companies in other places through the form of investment transfer..."
Tang Xueqian said: "As usual, the Finance Bureau would pick one or two municipal bureaus for surprise audits before the New Year. This year, we will focus on investigating the Cultural Relics Bureau. If there is really a problem, we can remove one or two deputy positions..." Tang Xueqian tapped his head gently, considering who to replace him. He couldn't think of a suitable candidate for the moment, but he thought of another idea and said, "Pei Ming's assistant mayor cannot just take the lead in sheep and not sell dog meat. The Cultural Relics Bureau looks very fragile. I will discuss with Fang Hongqing to see if he can let you share the burden for him..."
What problems did the Cultural Relics Bureau find out when the surprise audit was found? Fang Hongqing was not able to shirk responsibility. How could he hold the hot potato in his arms?
Without waiting for the Finance Bureau to have problems with the audit of the Cultural Relics Bureau, the demolition company under the Cultural Relics Bureau exposed serious problems when it demolished the residential houses near the Qiao Tower.
On December 24, the commercialization of Western festivals was not yet popular in China. Young people in Haizhou City did not have a particularly strong concept of holidays on Christmas Eve. Zhang Ke received a call from Xu Hongbo in the morning and learned about this.
On the 22nd, the demolition company of the Cultural Relics Bureau demolished the houses near the Qiao Tower, and found that four tall stone tablets were inlaid in parallel in the walls shared by the two bungalows. About four or five bungalows nearby were directly built on a large bluestone base. The gables of these bungalows were inlaid with more than a dozen bluestone pillars engraved with reliefs. According to Xue Guohua's insights after seeing the scene, this place is very likely a site of an important historical building.
Since the bungalows in that place were all built before liberation, they were collected by the Housing Administration Bureau as state-owned and distributed to the current residents after liberation. The stone tablets were built into the wall between the two bungalows. If they were not demolished, no one knew that this place was actually a historical site.
On the afternoon of the day when the stone tablet was discovered, the demolition company wanted to continue the demolition operation, and stopped it from nearby residents, and asked to report to the Cultural Relics Bureau for review. The demolition work in the afternoon was stopped.
On the 23rd, the Cultural Relics Bureau sent people to the scene for investigation. The stone tablet was preserved very well, but there was a brick wall on the surface of the monument, so the engravings on the monument could not be seen, but there were exquisite plant reliefs on the monument. After a simple survey, the staff of the Cultural Relics Bureau gave an opinion that there was no value for cultural relics protection. At that time, Xue Guohua, Xu Hongbo and others rushed to the scene after hearing the news. According to historical information, it was likely that this place was the ruins of the Haizhou Salt Supervision Bureau. It must be true that the four stone tablets are the only remaining Song Dynasty ruins in the city. How could they have no value for cultural relics protection? The staff of the Cultural Relics Bureau questioned the on-site and further cultural relics identification was needed.
Late at night that day, the sound of nearby residents being rolled by bulldozers awakened. When they arrived at the scene, two of the four stone tablets had been pushed to the ground, broken into several pieces, and the brick wall collapsed, and the front engravings were revealed, which were exactly the remains of the Salt Supervision Bureau of the Song Dynasty. The demolition personnel ignored the residents' request to stop the demolition and planned to continue to push down the other two stone tablets and siege the nearby residents with bricks, so they had to leave the site.
Residents nearby were worried that the demolition company would return, so they organized some people to stay on site to protect the monument. In the early morning, about twenty people rode ten motorcycles to get sticks and machetes to drive away the monument guarding the monument, causing several people to be injured. They then wanted to push the monument down, but the monument was too tall and too big, and they did not succeed. Fortunately, the residents called the police in time, so they left unwillingly.
Zhang Ke tried to ask Xu Hongbo in a calm tone on the phone: "Who took that piece of land?"
"Jincheng..."
Zhang Ke cursed hatefully in his stomach. He knew that once the four stone tablets were identified as precious historical sites, the corresponding areas nearby would be designated as protection areas. They needed to push down the four stone tablets before the cultural unit came up with an appraisal opinion so as not to affect their commercial development.
Zhang Ke spoke on the phone with his father and found out that his father had already gone down to investigate the matter on behalf of the municipal government. Zhang Ke asked Fu Jun to go directly to the Qiao Tower to meet him. He drove over and saw two stone tablets standing between broken bricks and broken tiles. The stele seats, body and forehead were intact, but the other two stone tablets only had broken seats one foot high exposed, and the body of the stele broke into several pieces, scattered nearby.
Zhang Ke saw Xu Hong standing on the side of the Broken Monument, his father stood in an open space, surrounded by some people, two of whom were wearing police uniforms, and the others should be the officials of the Cultural Relics Bureau. Zhang Ke cursed hatefully and walked towards Xu Hongbo.
"The one wearing a navy blue windbreaker and wearing a big belly is Su Xinglong, the director of the Cultural Relics Bureau..."
"This time I don't have a good life without him. If you want to be a lackey for Zhao Jinrong, you have to have the awareness of breaking your legs..." Zhang Ke said coldly, "Is there any evidence to prove that the group of people who inferred the stone tablet belongs to their demolition company?"
"Nearby residents can identify..."
"It's good to be able to identify it, the municipal bureau is not a good person."
Zhang Ke did not stay at the scene, so he got into the car with Xu Hongbo first.
Zhang Zhixing had seen Zhang Ke long ago, and explained the matter. He also got into the car and said, "Su Xinglong denies that the stone tablet was done by the demolition company under the Cultural Relics Bureau. I called Jin Guohai and asked the municipal bureau to catch two groups of people. When the person is caught, there will be something beautiful to Su Xinglong..."
Zhang Ke asked his father: "How much did Jincheng spend on this piece of land and demolition and resettlement in total?"
"It has been spent about 30 million yuan, and it still owes some of the land payments in the city..."
According to regulations, this land is recovered by the city and the real estate company must be compensated for equivalent funds.
Zhang Ke curled his lips and said, "If someone catches someone in this way, at most, they will be criminally detained. There are too many people who will bear the crime for Zhao Jinrong. If Zhao Jinrong can't catch him, the only thing that can teach him is to use normal work procedures to drag him to death..."
The so-called normal working procedure is to evaluate and evaluate the historical value of the stone tablets that occurred, to determine whether this area is not necessary to be excavated, to determine which areas are protected, which areas can continue to be commercially developed, and how commercial development can be combined with cultural relics protection to plan.
These tasks can be done in ten or eight days, and in three or five months. It is not impossible to delay them for three or five years.
Zhang Zhixing nodded. Some methods were necessary to deal with such people. He reported the preliminary investigation of the incident to Tang Xueqian through his mobile phone.
It was useless to stay here to get angry. Zhang Ke also agreed to take Tang Jing to see the garden he took down on the southern foot of Xiangshan Mountain to grow roses. This was a big deal. Zhang Ke hoped to do his best to make Haizhou finally develop a picturesque city. Unfortunately, there were too many people who were greedy and envious of plundering.
