Capítulo 881: Chapter 309: People’s Thoughts Can Change
United States, Pennsylvania, Philadelphia.
Anyone familiar with the history of West University knows that this is not only Pennsylvania’s largest city but was also once the capital of West University. The world-renowned Declaration of Independence was signed here.
However, due to various political and strategic considerations, after being the capital for more than ten years, its political centrality was replaced by Washington D.C.
Nevertheless, Philadelphia still enjoyed a period of glory. It was once one of the most important industrial cities in West University.
The rise of the textile and machinery manufacturing industries made Philadelphia the most important economic engine in the eastern part of West University.
It also nurtured the University of Pennsylvania, a world-famous institution.
Unfortunately, entering the new century, under the influence of progressive thought, this once great city eventually declined.
In fact, Philadelphia can be seen as a microcosm of the developnt of West University. It once reached its peak and then fell.
Nothing more than the rapid industrial decline, making its decline appear more pronounced.
Fish Town, though called a town, is actually different from the concept of Huaxia Town; it is a community nad Fish Town.
Located in the northeastern area of Philadelphia, about three kiloters straight from the city center. It was once a recognized low-inco community, but after West University and East University signed an agreent and countless Huaxia people sward in, it beca different.
First, all roads were completely refurbished, making traffic connections to downtown extrely convenient, especially suitable for temporary residence for people working in downtown.
At the sa ti, a grand old city renovation project began here. Yes, Fish Town was among the first batch of old city renovation sites three years ago, with most of the native residents’ hos being requisitioned.
However, at the ti, to ensure smooth city renovation, the official conditions from West University were quite favorable.
Not only did they fully cover the accommodation costs for the native residents during the renovation period, but after the renovation was completed, larger hos than they previously lived in would be returned to these native residents.
No matter how many hos there were…
Local people felt satisfied, but when word reached Huaxia, it made many ordinary Huaxia people feel indignant for those ordinary people of West University.
How to say it, for Huaxia people who have heard too many stories about demolition creating instant wealth, the compensation from West University seed sowhat lacking.
Demolishing one house to compensate with a building should be the basic operation, right? And nobody ntioned the transitional expenses. Isn’t it unfair that nobody speaks about the inconveniences caused by temporary housing?
Moreover, the land of West University is all owned by them!
Yet for the native residents here, they genuinely felt the conditions were quite good. The most important thing was that the official side of West University even promised that before the houses were returned, the native residents could be completely exempted from property taxes.
To those low-inco groups living here before, this was actually quite a tempting offer.
This ans that no matter how long the old city renovation lasts, at least during this ti, they don’t have to worry about becoming holess because they can’t pay property taxes.
Besides, it’s said that Huaxia people also promised in the planning to build two high-quality schools and at least one high-quality park here. Plus, two highways leading to downtown will be renovated…
As long as one isn’t foolish, everyone knows that once the old city renovation is completed, the value here will rise directly.
So even though Huaxia netizens felt it was not worth it for the people here online, the contract was signed smoothly at the ti. Almost no one obstructed…
Of course, perhaps soone did try to obstruct, but it was quietly suppressed.
After all, for the people in the White House, this decision was a gamble on all political prospects and future political legacy.
No matter how crazy, it’s impossible for such a small issue to cause trouble in the first project. After dealing for so many years, the style of Huaxia’s actions was already familiar here.
The first ti can believe you, but if fooled this ti, it won’t be easy to talk next ti.
So at that ti, there was indeed a lot of effort; major official bodies with law enforcent power from the Federation sent people down to monitor.
Of course, it was also the first ti Huaxia created such a big show in West University, naturally holding its breath to do this well!
Not just for the sake of face, but more for the subsequent infrastructure business deals with more than forty states and other developed countries.
The instructions received by construction companies were that even if the first deal doesn’t make money, the market must be opened.
Thus, the so-called old city renovation almost beca old city reconstruction. Countless engineering machines and employees working hard from dawn to dusk cultivated this land daily.
The renovation projects initially planned to be completed in three years were completed in only two years, and Fish Town entirely changed its appearance.
They even catered to the living habits of native residents, dividing even a re community into a central area and a peripheral area.
The high-rises in the central area and the large villa communities surrounding it corresponded to each other. With wide and brand new roads and Huaxia’s unique road greening system, along with brand new schools, directly upgraded this previously low-inco town into a very standard middle-to-high-inco community.
Just concerning this community, the house prices at least doubled within this year.
A few native residents chose to sell their houses and move away after rebuilding. No way, the rise in house prices made it unaffordable for them to bear the annually payable property taxes.
