July is the most sullen season of Puzhou Island, which is dormant in the Yangtze River.

A group of people rushed to the other side of the island from the small town in Nanxi District, Yibin City, Sichuan Province, waiting for the boat to bring them back to the island one by one.

In the two years after the Yangtze River was completely banned, the fishermen had not been so lively for a long time.

On the island, 70 -year -old Liu Fanshu burned boiling water and took out all the glass at home because a discussion will be unfolded in her yard. On the shore, Yu Jia, deputy secretary of the party branch of the community, and the tea that the daughter bought from Yunnan was packed in plastic bags. The businessman Yu Shuangjiang walked out of his restaurant. He is waiting to be sent outside the factory every day to end his work in advance.

The setting sun was still hot, and the sound of the motor on the river rang, and the familiar diesel flavor permeated. These boats had no fish warehouse, but they were only the tools for their home.

Still the way home, or the group of people, this time their return is for a kind of endangered plant, and it is also to discuss where this Jiangxin village should go.

"Come on a" Flower Watching Conference on Dazhou Island "!" Standing under the gazebo with a century -old history, the crowd discussed warmly.

Jiangxin Island

"Born by water, change from water"

A village has a river, and there is the birthplace of the story.

In Yibin City, Sichuan Province, the Jinsha River and Minjiang River gathered at the mighty of the Sanjiangkou, opening a trip that belonged to the Yangtze River. Steaming down, bypassing the "Wanli Yangtze River First Bay", Yizhou Island, 60 kilometers away, was born in water and has been silent for a century in Jiangxin.

"We are the real first islands of the Yangtze River." For the villagers of Puzhou Island, this is a label that makes them proud, and it is also the cause of several changes.

In early July, Yu Jiahe went to the southwest of Puzhou Island. This year, the weather is extremely hot and rainy. In previous years, it has been flooded under the shallow beach underwater. Now it is still naked, with a long sparse flower and cypress branches, which also grows up.

It is the existence of the water level rising belt in the Three Gorges Reservoir area, and the unique national secondary key protection wild plant. The sparse water and water branches have been flooded in the water for at least five months a year. Because of the high requirements for the growth environment, they have rarely reproduced for many years, and have been included in the endangered (EN) species in Chinese biological diversity.

For the villagers of Puzhou Island, the sparse flower and cypress branches on the island from the first few plants to thousands of strains at the beginning, they blurred that the reproduction of this plant was before and after the ban.

"The ecology has improved after the ban on the Yangtze River." As an expert in the Nanxi District Forestry Bureau, Liu Yong regularly went to Puzhou Island to check the growth of sparse flowers and cypress branches. In his opinion, the existence of this species represents a certain extent on the Yangtze River Basin, especially the entire ecological situation along the river.

The sunset will dye the river water, and the tallest sparse flower and cypress branch on the island of Puzhou has grown to about two meters high. Standing next to it, Liu Yong sighed, "Its reproduction makes us very surprising. Its population can expand so much so much so much It also shows that the protection of Murakami is doing well. "

At the same time, on the other side of the island, a discussion was not officially held.

△ On July 6th, some villagers of Puzhou Island returned to the island to discuss how to protect the sparse flower and cypress branches

"Let's meet below." Sitting around the humble tile house, Yu Jiahe made his expression serious, but he couldn't help laughing the next second.

For this 57 -year -old fisherman, he couldn't tell when he arrived here. The people on the island have similar life, born here, growing up, fishermen, ashore, and changing their careers. He is familiar with every change on the island, so when he determines that the growth area of ​​sparse flowers and cypress branches has expanded, he is halved.

"We want to discuss how to better protect the water and cypress." Yu Jiahe said.

"We have greeted this water cypress, what else do we do?" The villager Qiu Jihong was a little anxious. He felt that the change came too fast. First of all, the ancestors' dinner was changed, and then they were spreading all over the river beach at their childhood. They were often pulled out of the grass that was talked about by the children, becoming an endangered species, which requires the protection of people's concessions.

What's more specific is that his watermelon is on the beach where water cypress grows. In the past two years, in order to protect water and cypress branches, his watermelon planting area has been reduced from the most up to 10 acres to one or two acres.

Originally, this was a small income.

For a long time, the watermelon of Puzhou Island has been well -known. Eating water by water, the sits of the Yangtze River on both ends of the small island are drowned every year. After the river water retreats, the villagers clear the stones everywhere, leave the sediment, and plant watermelon in the coming year.

Right now, this income is decreasing for sparse flowers and cypress branches.

Yu Jiahe has counted a account. In the past two years, the planting area of ​​the watermelon planting of the entire Puzhou Island has been reduced by more than 10 acres. Bai Zhi, the whole village has reduced income by nearly 80,000 yuan each year.

Born by water and changing because of water, this is the mission of Jiangxin Island.

△ Yujiahe was born on the island and grew up, known as the "Yu Island Lord"

The last 14 households "have someone on the island to be called the island"

In fact, for the villagers of Puzhou Island, the protection of sparse flower and cypress branches has more realistic significance.

In the past half century, the area of ​​Puzhou Island has been shrinking. The ancestor's mouth is like a "official seal" island, and now it is more like a "small fish".

"About 100 acres of land." In Yujiahe's memory, this reduction was stopped after the protection of the Yangtze River.

As far as Yulizhou Island is concerned, these six years have exceeded the past century.

Fishermen go ashore, stop sand mining, move along the Yangtze River factory, and rectify the channel ... In the entire large protection, change every inch of land and households that penetrate into the island. Finally, the sparse flowers and water branches that disappeared for many years reappeared and grew up. This kind of grass that was born along the water was developed underwater and was deeply rooted under the water. effect.

"Then if we set up a sign on the island, remind everyone to protect the water and cypress branches?" At the meeting, some villagers suggested.

"People who do n’t know about it now know, and look at it, and touch them, what should I do if the two strains take away?" Someone immediately interrupted.

"As soon as the water rises, the card will be washed away." Another person attached.

About 180 days a year, the road on the island was flooded under the water, and the villagers were more accustomed to using fishing boats. Once, their livelihoods were in the river and online. People in the river are fishing day and night. As soon as the net goes down, the thin and dense mesh eyes are stretched under the water, like a city wall. When pulling up, large and small fish on the grid, white and gray, that is the livelihood inherited from generation to generation.

Eating water by water, now, villagers on Puzhou Island have a new understanding of this sentence.

On the island, the previous fishing boat was registered and only used as the daily transportation of villagers. The former layered fishing nets were hung in the fields of the field to become a partition. The door of the household is open, and the villagers will still squat on the river barely. They wash their hands, then wash their faces, and finally screw a towel to wipe their back. Since the protection of the Yangtze River, the river water here has always been clear.

△ On the island, once the fishing boat was registered, it was only reserved as a villagers' daily transportation

For these villagers, in the past two years, they have been ashore to adapt to new life. In order to facilitate work, most of them moved to the county seats in the community and building. Right now, the resident residents on the island of Puzhou have been reduced to 14 households from 38 households and 140 people at most, and most of them are the elderly.

Qiu Jihong is 51 years old and he has not worked in the county. On the other side of Puzhou Island, he and his village partners stayed in a iron house for a long time. It was close to the industrial park. At first, he worked in the workshop of the brewing plant and could not bear it. Now, he covers the cover of the large truck of the cargo. The charges for each car are around 200 yuan, deducted from the labor company, and the remaining 4 people can have a monthly income of nearly 3,000 yuan.

Can't walk too far because his two mothers still live on the island. His 85 -year -old mother -in -law and 89 -year -old mother are the oldest old people in Puzhou Island. Qiu Jihong went home to cook at noon and afternoon every day and afternoon. His family was on the river. Whenever the motor sounded far, the old man would slowly walk to the river and wait for the child to return.

As he is, most of the villagers who have not left are concerned.

△ At present, most of the villagers who stay without leaving on the island of Puzhou are concerned about their hearts.

"I basically leave the island every two months and go to the county." At the age of 67, Xiang Chaozhen wore a bright skirt, saying that she and her husband played on the island on the island. The years of fish raising big children. When she learned that she was going to be ashore, she was relieved. "The less the fish beats, and the fishermen are getting poorer and poverty. "".

Xiang Chaozhen's two daughters were settled in the county seat. She stayed for a while, but soon returned to the island.

"There must be someone on the island to be called the island." When the flood season arrived in June, Liu Gang, the secretary of the Nanxi District Party Committee, boarded the boat on the boat, facing the leadership, Yu Jia and bluntly said long -term concerns. The most suitable for the road of Waizhou Island. "

He faintly felt that Shuhua Water Blogen represents a unique path of ecological development, but he didn't know how to hold it.

The best future

"Blossoming into a piece, to inherit the nostalgia"

"I have seen the flowers of water cypress branches. If it is opened, it is better to look good." Yu Shuangjiang is Yu Jiahe's nephew. He is the "businessman" who started his business on the Emperor Island as early as possible. More than 10 years ago, he drove the first farmhouse on the island. When the business was good, the car on the island was far blocked, but it was closed in less than a year.

"Land roads only appear when the water level drops in winter. The waterway is not safe. In addition, if there are more people, it will be polluted." Today, Yu Shuangjiang is popular in the restaurant in the county seat. The beach stone road, the puppy osmanthus tree has always been there, but the whole village is "old".

In fact, on the issue of the future development of Jiangxin Island, officials and experts appeared one after another. A possible direction. "The island of Puzhou Island is relatively special. On the ecological restoration of the Yangtze River, it is also a rare fish protected area. It is very cautious to move one grass and wood." Cadres, the village has prematurely wanted to repair a bridge to enter the village for more than 10 years, but so far, there is no construction.

"The century -old history of Puzhou Island must keep a proper distance from the outside world." In Song Xiaojun's perception, the doubts of Puzhou Island are also coexisting in many Jiangxin Island. Questions of value. "

At that time, Liu Gang, the secretary of the Nanxi District Party Committee, mentioned that it is necessary to combine the original ecology and the original cultural concept to present the traditional antique charm, so that the Puzhou Pavilion becomes the carrier of the Nanxi culture inheritance.

Shortly after he left, a planned company was invited to surveys on the island, and the plan was planned to take out a plan.

"I don't want to sell my house on the island at once, and I look forward to being concentrated, so that my child will have a place to carry nostalgia in the future." At the seminar, Yu Shuangjiang's statement was recognized by all villagers' recognition of all villagers. Essence

In fact, there is no exact discussion result on the island. But a week later, the protection of sparse flowers and water branches was first written into the local village regulations. We step by step. "

The ashore fisherman Guo Yong stood in front of a paper convention for a long time. He is now a member of the patrol team. He wore a sleeve every day to inspect the river. He saw the sparse flower and cypress branches of each season and watched them from growing green green. Kit -shaped blades, to small flowers that bloom white or pink, "There are more and more populations, and our islands will get better and better."

The better and better stories can be more magnificent.

On August 18, the Sichuan Provincial Party Committee of the Communist Party of China mentioned the theme press conference of the "China Ten Years of Sichuan" that as provinces that have flow through the dry flow of the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, Sichuan is two important ecological barriers and water conservation of the upper reaches of the mother river. , Will continue to solidify the upstream consciousness, carry up the upstream responsibility, and strive to paint the beautiful picture of Bashan Green, Shushuiqing, and Tianfu Blue.

The Mizuka Pavilion is also in the scroll.

For most villagers, the island has retained a flood prevention building built in the Ming Dynasty so far. "Zhen Lan Night Moon" is to the bottom of the moon.

This is also the best future of Puzhou Island in their eyes.
