In July, 44 -year -old Yang Zhengbang did not sleep a laziness. He wanted to start preparing vegetables for his own homestay every day at about 5 am.

The homestay provides three meals a day, Yang Zhengbang is a boss and a chef. In order to make the ingredients fresh, he drove to the surrounding farmers' houses every night to collect vegetables. If he encounters a temporary meal, he will have to rush to the midnight farmers' market at the midnight of 40 kilometers away at 12 o'clock in the middle of the night.

"Summer vacation is the peak tourist season. On average, more than 400 guests are entertained a day, and the gross income is 2,000 yuan." Yang Zhengbang was not tired.

Yang Zhengbang's hometown is in Shibadong Village, Huayuan County, Xiangxi, Hunan Province, Hunan Province.

Ten years ago, the incidence of poverty in the village of Eighteen Cave was as high as 57%. The per capita net income of villagers was only 1668 yuan, and the collective economy was blank. Yang Zhengbang witnessed the difficult days at the time. "There are few cultivated land, and there is no income in the end of the farm. Without the road, people outside can't get in."

At that time, people in the village had the ability to make a living, and Yang Zhengbang was one of them. He went to Shenyang to drive a blender and repaired the signal tower in Ningbo.

The loss of the labor force of young people has caught the vicious circle of "poverty and poverty, and people go more poor". Some people are expected to rely on government relief to live.

Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the whole province has adhered to the basic strategy of precision poverty alleviation and accurate poverty alleviation. The concept of "seeking truth from facts, adapting to local conditions, classification guidance, and precision poverty alleviation" has also blossomed in the Eighteen Cave Village.

The poverty alleviation team entered Shibaidong Village, and took home to "tailor -made" assistance measures for the poor to build a platform to create a platform to create conditions for poverty alleviation.

The advantageous resources in the village are continuously developed. The villagers said that the biggest gain in the past ten years is to understand the question of "what, what to raise, and where to increase the income".

Shi Jintong, the secretary of the Party Branch of Shibong Village, introduced that the whole village formed five industries: tourism, mountain spring water, labor, breeding, and seedling embroidery. The days of villagers were as high as sesame flowers. In 2016, Eighteen Caves became the first poverty -stricken villages in Hunan.

"These industries not only make us succeed in poverty alleviation, but also provide strong support for subsequent rural revitalization." Shi Jintong said that while the industry grows, the construction and reconstruction of Shibaidong Village also follows the principle of "repairing the old". It was protected and improved in the change.

Lu Fuxing, deputy dean of the China Rural Research Institute of Hunan Normal University, believes that stimulating the motivation of the people in the masses is the essence of "precision poverty alleviation" and an important driving force for the comprehensive poverty alleviation of Eighteen Cave Village.

The improvement of infrastructure and the development of the industry have made the village a "talent return." Among the villagers who return home, there are middle -aged men who have worked abroad for many years, as well as many vibrant young people.

At the end of 2019, Shi Kang, who graduated from college, returned to Shibadong Village, began to record real rural life with a lens, and published on a short video platform. He also pulled a few like -minded young people to form a team to set up live broadcasts on the Internet regularly, telling the story of Eighteen Dongcun Village, and also helping villagers to sell honey, bacon, pepper and other agricultural products.

"We will also prepare to improve the brand certification of various agricultural products, etc., and bring the products of Eighteen Caves to a farther place with the help of the Internet." Shi Kang said that he was full of confidence in the future of Shibadong Village.

In 2021, the per capita income of the entire village of Shibaidong Village was 20167 yuan, and the collective economic income of the village was 2.68 million yuan. There are more and more tourists who come to "check in", and many villagers have achieved a stable income to increase their income through homestays and farmhouses.

Lu Fuxing said that relying on the road of market -oriented development, adapting to local conditions and accurate policies, stimulating the endogenous motivation of villagers to seek development, Shibong Village provided a model for more villages.

As one of the main battlefields of poverty alleviation in China, in the past ten years, Hunan has successfully got rid of poverty and unplugged the poor roots like "eighteen holes". As of the end of 2020, all the poverty -stricken people in the province's 6.82 million rural areas have been poverty alleviation. All 6,920 poor villages were all listed, and 51 poor counties were removed.

Tian Xiao is the captain of the first rural rejuvenation team of Shibaidong Village. After he arrived on May 18 last year, he had hardly returned home. "To allow poverty alleviation farmers to continue to develop in the long run, we must not have the idea of ​​relaxing." He said.

In Tian Xiao's opinion, from the tackling of poverty alleviation to the revitalization of the countryside, it means the conversion from "tackling" to "long -lasting war". While maintaining the assistance of the station, it is necessary to explore the long -term mechanism of rural governance.

"For Shidong Village, every day is a new starting point." Tian Xiao is full of confidence in the future. (Reporter Tan Jian, Zhang Yujie, Liu Fangzhou, Sun Yi)
