During the Spring Festival of the Year of the Dragon, in Baimahu Village, Jinhu County, Huai'an City, Jiangsu Province, in the new home of the old fisherman Liu Yuanbiao, the reporter felt full of New Year's flavor: the two-story building of 200 square meters was spacious and bright, and sausages and salted fish were neatly dried outside the courtyard wall.
At the beginning of last year, thanks to the party's policy of benefiting the people, Liu Yuanbiao spent 370,000 yuan to replace the house. When introducing the feeling of living in a new home to reporters, Liu Yuanbiao used the number of quilts covered in winter as an example: In the past, when I lived on a boat, I had to cover 3 quilts in the cold winter, but now I am on the shore, and it is enough to cover only 1 quilt no matter how cold it is.
Comparing the past and the present, Liu Yuanbiao is full of emotion, he has everything he should have, and his heart is much more stable than on the boat. Taking the boat as his home, all things are inconvenient, especially the difficulty of using electricity, which makes him feel deeply. Liu Yuanbiao recalled: "At the beginning, I used a battery, and I had to think about using it, and I could only turn on the lights when it was dark. Later, the power supply company pulled the wire, and the ship was electrified. ”
This year's Spring Festival is the second Spring Festival that Liu Yuanbiao's family has spent in their new home. "In the past two days, the children of every family in other places have returned, and the community is full of cars. "At the entrance of the Party and Mass Service Center at the head of the village, a row of electric vehicle charging piles is neatly arranged, which is the result of the State Grid charging piles going to the countryside.
Walking into the live broadcast room of the exhibition hall on the second floor of the Party and Mass Service Center, this dark, simple and hospitable old fisherman sat in front of the camera and chatted, "I usually do live streaming here to bring goods." Liu Yuanbiao said that before the Spring Festival this year, he sold Baima Lake local products such as hemp duck and chicken head rice online, earning nearly 100,000 yuan.
Liu Yuanbiao was originally engaged in the water catering business of Baima Lake, and opened a "fishing house" on a 160-square-meter fishing boat. In 2020, a ban on fishing was implemented in Baima Lake, and all catering boats operating in the lake area were shut down. After coming ashore, Liu Yuanbiao soon took on two "new jobs", not only becoming a member of the lake protection team responsible for cleaning up floating debris and water peanuts in the lake area, but also becoming the "first person in e-commerce" in the village.
At present, the annual transaction volume of Baima Lake's e-commerce industry exceeds 200 million yuan, and it has been selected as one of the "Top Ten Villages" of e-commerce in Jiangsu Province. There are not a few new fishermen like Liu Yuanbiao who take the family as the unit: "post-90s" and "post-00s" are responsible for taking care of **, post-70s and "post-80s" are "strict product selection officials", and the oldest "post-50s" and "post-60s" are engaged in the rough processing and packaging of products, forming an industrial chain that benefits together.
