Yesterday is sunday.And I was woke up by a terrible noise.Looking out of the window,I saw a crowd of people were pulling down the enclosure of my courtyard.They were sent by the local government,told me then we've no right to possess our courtyard,but if we pay extra RMB100,000 yuan,we could preserve them.I can't describe how was I shocked!The local monthly per capital income is only 2000 yuan,how could we earn such a large sum of "extra " money!Even if we can afford,we definitely would not like to cost dear in this way!Because we have had paied the right ot use land (of course including our courtyard),at the time we bulit our houses! Has something of the kind happend in your countries???
