Shandong Tai'an: The Gourd Dream of "Gourd Brother" after the 90s of Ningyang

"Although the gourd is small in the world, accompanies me to Yunyun." Lu You, the poet of the Song Dynasty, described the gourd in his poem, but it was all -encompassing. It accompanied the poet to walk through many places, expressing the poet's love for the gourd. In fact, in Chinese traditional culture, because of the gourds, it is often known as "treasure gourd", and because of the gourd harmonic "Fulu", it means that many children and blessings are blessed, rich and rich, so the gourds have always been the gourd. It is regarded as auspicious things and is loved by everyone. In Ningyang County, Tai'an City, Shandong Province, there is a post -90s "Gourd Brother" Liu Tengxiao. With the love of gourds, from the improvement of the production skills of various gourds, to the cultivation of large -scale planting, continuously leads young people to start a business and drive the villagers. Increase employment income, combine their love of gourds with career, realize their own "gourd dream", and find a way to lead the villagers to increase their income.

The reporter first saw Liu Tengxiao, which was cultivated in the gourd in the gourd in the south village of Ningyang County. After July, small white flowers have been bloomed on the continuous gourd vines, and some female flowers have completed the pollination and waiting for the coming autumn of the harvest.

Liu Tengxiao told reporters that the gourds he planted were dedicated to play or watch, mainly based on Laza, Jie, crane heads, and mold works. The mold designed and produced by a person has grown in the mold in the mold until it began in October. "We start the gourds in May each year. From June to July, we can harvest for gourds. In order to prevent the greenhouses from idle, we adopt a three -dimensional planting method and plant yellow flowers in the greenhouse from April to May each year. Cai. "Liu Tengxiao told reporters that this not only ensures the output benefits of the greenhouse, but also drives nearby villagers to increase their income. After all, the land transfer fee of the greenhouse plus the labor fee in the shed in the shed for nearly 7 months is for nearby villagers. It is also a considerable income.

At present, Liu Tengxiao mentioned that the cultivation of gourds is like a few treasures, talking about the association with the gourd, which dates back to 2012. At the beginning of graduation in 2012, through a chance, Liu Tengxiao learned that gourd planting and crafts were made. After returning home, he checked the information from various parties, learned about the latest trends, and made up his mind to do a "big article" on the "small gourd".

In 2015, Liu Tengxiao began to plant gourds in small -scale experiments. He returned early and late every day, eating and living under the gourd shed, carefully cared for gourds, shapes, and knots. Gourd young fruit was carefully organized by Liu Tengxiao, and slowly grew into exquisite crafts. With the maturity of technology and the improvement of craftsmanship, Liu Tengxiao's products are becoming increasingly abundant, and the income has gradually increased. The benefits of that year reached 300,000 yuan. This considerable income also strengthened Liu Tengxiao's confidence in expanding the gourd industry. Essence

The gourd is well planted, and it is better to design and process it. A bold idea flash now in Liu Tengxiao's mind -applying the shape of the porcelain and patterned pattern to the production of gourds, and making various ornaments with gourds. So Liu Tengxiao began to study and innovate various gourd model molds, such as paper mask molds, wooden molds, tile sand mud molds, and 3D printing molds launched by innovatively. In order to make these molds, Liu Tengxiao often studied until late at night. Fortunately, Kung Fu was not carried out. The mold he made not only ensured the coordination and unity of each mold texture, but also increased the success rate of high -grade gourds after the model.

Liu Tengxiao's efforts were recognized by his family and villagers. With the strong support of the two committees of the South Village of Tancheng, Liu Tengxiao transferred another 10 acres of land to develop the planting gourd base. Because the gourd products grown in Liu Tengxiao are good, the unit price can be sold for more than 10,000 yuan, and the general products can also sell for hundreds of thousands. The output value of 10 acres of land reaches 200,000 yuan. It is more than 1 million yuan, and buyers from Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai and other places are endless.

In order to allow gourds to go all over the country, Liu Tengxiao, who has always been devoted to researching gourd production skills, began to contact the e -commerce platform and broaden sales channels. He registered the establishment of Ningyang Yongle Gourd Planting Professional Cooperative and Shandong Yongzong Workshop Electronic Commerce Co., Ltd., becoming the only e -commerce company in the city with gourd sales. With the increase in product demand, he took the initiative to recruit the village's idle labor, which not only guarantees the supply of raw materials, but also solves the employment of some villagers. Today, Liu Tengxiao already has a complete industrial chain from making molds, planting gourds, sleeve molds, collecting gourds to gourds to selling a dragon -type industrial chain.

When talking about future planning, Liu Tengxiao said that he is actively planning and building a non -legacy workshop in order to make the workshop into a model between gourd processing, production and live broadcast, allowing villagers to learn and copy. This model drives people in the village to get rich together. "I hope that their cooperatives will cooperate with the village committee to drive more villagers to develop the gourd planting industry, form a large -scale planting, increase farmers' income, increase the collective income of the village, and contribute to rural revitalization." Liu Tengxiao said. [Tai'an Daily · Most Thai Security Media Reporter Dong Wenyi Chen Yang]
