Xu Zhenxia. People outside the mountains say that our Shaanxi Zhashui is a mountain city. I actually like the name "Mountain City". Where there are mountains, there is water, there are thousands of plants and trees, there are flowers, birds, insects and fish, there are good scenery and good ecology.
When I was a child, walnut trees were planted everywhere in the village. In front of the house and behind the house, the fields are full of slopes and mountains, and there are lush walnut trees, so there are walnut ditches, walnut slopes, and walnut forests. In the autumn at that time, beating walnuts, peeling walnuts, washing walnuts, drying walnuts, and selling walnuts were simply the most spectacular things in the village. For months before and after, people circled around walnuts. After the walnuts are harvested, they are first handed over to the farmer's trading company, and then brought back from the farmer's trading company in the winter. After that, the walnut kernels were smashed, and the walnut kernel agricultural trading company paid the labor fee by the catty. When the winter weather is the coldest, there is nothing else to do, and every household, men, women and children, are smashing walnuts and peeling walnuts by the fire. None of the peeled walnuts were reluctant to eat, and all of them were handed back to the farmer's trading company in exchange for the New Year's expenses.
At that time, the county seat of Zhashui was very small. With the exception of public officials, most of the others live a life of sunrise and sunset. At that time, there were very few shops in the county, and most of them were called supply and marketing cooperatives, selling some daily necessities. At that time, the people of Queshui did not have the Xi of going out, one because of the dangerous mountain road, and the other because of the fact that there was not much to do when they went out.
Later, someone discovered the water cave. The discoverers were two firewood collectors who were collecting firewood in the mountains, found a hole, and walked in. Who knew that the deeper and deeper it went, it was full of milky white strange stones. They were very curious, so they ordered the ** expedition, and the two of them walked for a day and a night, and they didn't finish, and after they came out, they told the story. People have come to the local area. The relevant departments invited experts to investigate, saying that there are many stalactites in the cave, with strange shapes and different shapes, all of which are formed by the accumulation of limestone for many years. At that time, tourism was quietly emerging, and Zhashui took advantage of this shareholder wind to launch the first tourist attraction in the county, named "Zhashui Cave". In the five northwestern provinces, there are many people who come to play in the water cave.
Since the Zhashui Cave, Zhashui has developed a series of scenic spots such as Niubeiliang, Qinchu Ancient Road, Phoenix Ancient Town, and Jiutian Mountain. As the saying goes, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, these natural and humanistic scenery have become the unique tourism resources of Zhashui. Relying on the favorable time, place and people, the people of Zhashui have made tourism a pillar industry of Zhashui. Of course, this is also related to the convenience of transportation, first the railway was repaired to Zhashui, and soon after, the highway was also opened, and it became more and more convenient to reach the provincial capital Xi'an. From the remote place in the depths of the Qinling Mountains that "people don't know" in the mountains, it was suddenly classified into the Xi'an one-hour economic circle, and became a veritable back garden of Xi'an.
In recent years, the fungus industry in Zhashui County has developed rapidly. My uncle's house is near the small town of fungus, and every time I go to my uncle's house, my cousin will take me around. My cousin said that he had been growing fungus at home since he was a child, and he used to use ear tree sticks to order fungus, which had a low yield and basically relied on the sky to eat. Since Academician Li Yu came to the fungus town, he has guided everyone to cultivate scientifically, and changed the previous fungus stick fungus to bag fungus, and the yield of fungus has increased a lot. Saying that, my cousin took me to the fungus greenhouse and told me that the current fungus cultivation is basically intelligent temperature and humidity control, so that the fungus is always in a state of vigorous growth. As soon as the yield of fungus is high, the enthusiasm of ear farmers to plant fungus has also increased.
Zhashui has also started the renovation of the city's image project, and almost all the buildings in the city have been refreshed and beautified with external walls. Under the supervision and promotion of the urban construction department, the old appearance of the entire Zhashui County has been renewed, which is refreshing for people. At dusk, the lights are on, the neon glows, and the lights are everywhere, not the New Year, but it is better than the New Year. New roads, new houses, new cities, all of them make Zhashui glow with new brilliance.
It is gratifying that this year, Niubeiliang Tourist Resort was rated as a national tourist resort. Back then, I was placed from a temporary worker to the Niubeiliang Management Committee by the county as a talent. Half a year later, Niubeiliang happened to open the park. It can be said that from the construction of Niubeiliang, to the opening of the park, to the development of Niubeiliang, I am a witness and witness. I am like a miner, using my curiosity and love for the cow's back beam to dig out the unique beauty of the cow's back beam. After working in Niubeiliang for three years, I wrote down my love and attachment to Niubeiliang. After Niubeiliang was awarded the national tourist resort, we rushed for the best news, because this is everyone's common happiness and honor. Even though I don't work anymore, in my heart, I feel that I have always been close to Niubeiliang.
This autumn, walking on the streets of Zhashui New Town, I saw ginkgo biloba leaves flying all over the ground, and I always wanted to pick up a few and write something on them. I thought about it for a while, took out the pen from my bag, and wrote on a ginkgo leaf, "Ambilight is full of mountain castles". That's how I feel most truly. In the face of life, in addition to hard work, there is also gratitude, gratitude for everything in the world, which lights up the stars of our life.
