Yinchuan, 29 Dec (Xinhua) -- There are more than 20 households with 10 million yuan and 3 households with 10 million yuan, and many villagers have driven cars ......Counting the changes in the village, Li Dawu, the village party secretary, couldn't help but sigh: The advanced village is worthy of its name.
The advanced village is located in Xinmin Township, Jingyuan County, Guyuan City, Ningxia, and was once called "Sanzhuangzi" because of the deep mountains and deep ravines and scattered households. Due to the decay and dilapidation of the village, the villagers were poor, and the outside world once joked that this was a "rotten Zhuangzi". In the 50s of the 20th century, the older generation felt that the name of the village was unlucky and proposed to change it to "advanced village".

But for a long time after that, the advanced villages were not advanced. When Li Dawu was a child, he felt that the village was even a little backward, and his ancestors could barely make ends meet. Many young people are forced to leave the mountains to make a living, and go to the city to serve dishes, wash dishes, repair shoes, sell vegetables, and ......Some people have carved out a world outside, from migrant workers to small bosses, and more villagers have gone out to start businesses.
But only a few people have passed the future, and the village as a whole is still not advanced. Li Dawu said that it was not until the comprehensive victory of poverty alleviation and the advanced villages took off the "poor" hat that they completely got rid of the "rotten" reputation.
Today, scattered households in the ravine have been resettled, and the farthest is less than a kilometre from the village. The water circuit network in the village is fully connected, and it is also equipped with a cultural square, a village clinic, and an activity center for the elderly. Driven by the teams of the two village committees and the leaders of getting rich, the advanced villages have developed pillar industries such as cattle and sheep breeding and Chinese herbal medicine planting, and have made great strides into a new journey of rural revitalization.
Li Dawu said that the village is located at the junction of Ninggan and Gansu, and one-third of the village's labor force has gone out to work and start a business, or run a restaurant, or engage in the wholesale of vegetables, fruits, beef and mutton, with an annual entrepreneurial income of more than 6 million yuan. "A lot of people joke that our village is 'rich' in the owner. Many people have given back to the village after they have developed and become leaders in the spiritual prosperity of everyone. ”
This summer, Yu Guangrong (second from left) was doing technical guidance in the field of Chinese medicinal materials. Xinhua News Agency (photo by Li Dawu).
Yu Guangrong is 54 years old this year, thanks to the free agricultural skills training held by **, he began to try to plant local wild vegetable thorn shoots, and taught himself wild Chinese herbal medicine seed domestication and breeding. "In the past, I cut wheat in Shaanxi in the summer and went to the coal mine in Inner Mongolia in the winter. He said.
In 2017, Yu Guangrong gritted his teeth and borrowed 460,000 yuan to establish an agricultural professional cooperative, and transferred 500 acres of land to plant thorny sprouts, thornless pepper, peony, forsythia, etc. As the concept of health was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and Chinese herbal medicines were selling well, it took him only four years to pay off the loan and successfully transformed into an entrepreneur in the cultivation of Chinese herbal medicines.
According to Zhao Yingjun, deputy head of Xinmin Township, at present, the planting area of traditional Chinese medicinal materials such as Duhuo, rhubarb and Bupleurum in advanced villages has reached 530 acres, ranking first in the township.
Since the beginning of this year, Jingyuan County has carried out the construction of a demonstration base for the cultivation of traditional Chinese medicinal materials in Liupan Mountain based on its resource endowment, and the advanced village has become a key village for the cultivation of traditional Chinese medicinal materials. Yu Guangrong, as a leader in getting rich, provides free technical guidance for the planting of Chinese medicinal materials in the village. Not only that, but he also sponsored the college students in the village for three consecutive years, and donated 44 sets of cotton clothes to the village kindergarten a few days ago.
Knowledge changes destiny. In the future, there will be more college students, and the advanced villages will definitely be more 'advanced'!Yu Guangrong said.
