"Rehe Traditional Chinese Medicine Flower Sea Town" has a delicate fragrance.

Xiayingzi Village, Jingoutun Town, Luanping County, was once the mountain village with the most complex situation and the weakest economic foundation in the county. There are 456 households in the village, 45 of which are registered poor households. The per capita land area is less than two acres, and most of it is mountainous land. Getting rid of poverty is really difficult.

But that's how the miracle happened. From 2014 to the present, Xiayingzi Village has undergone earth-shaking changes. The village has built the "Rehe Traditional Chinese Medicine Flower Sea Town" around the traditional Chinese medicine industry. The town covers an area of 2,220 acres. 56 kinds of Chinese medicinal materials such as skullcap, astragalus, cork, and sophora flavescens form a landscape. At the same time, Xiayingzi Village has also explored the concept of "industrial poverty alleviation + R&D exchanges + tourism culture + traditional Chinese medicine science popularization" The road out of poverty.

"I came from the mountains, and this is my home. I want to hug together with the villagers and twist them into ropes to get rid of poverty and strive for prosperity, and repay the nurturing grace of this land." Fang Chengdejiu, the builder of Huahai Town Sun Shihe, chairman of Cainonghuanghui Development Co., Ltd., said. Sun Shihe is a native of Xiayingzi Village. He left the countryside many years ago to work and do business. After years of hard work, he has made some achievements. Although he has lived a good life, he still cares about his parents and fellow villagers in his hometown. In 2014, he decided to return to his hometown to start a business. In the past few years, he has worked with the two village committees and the poverty alleviation team in the village to develop a characteristic Chinese herbal medicine industry based on the superior local natural conditions, and has explored a coordinated approach that integrates "production, processing, sales, tourism and entertainment" road to development. The hard work paid off. The former ravines turned into terraced fields, the hillsides were covered with green, and the village actually had a 3A-level scenic spot.

Standing on the mountain of Xiayingzi Village, looking around, the mountains are rolling and green. The breeze blows by, and waves of fragrance blow against your face, which is refreshing and refreshing.

Jiucai Museum and Chinese Herbal Medicine Experience Center stand impressively; the town is dotted with more than a dozen scenic spots such as Scutellaria baicalensis Valley, Medicine Flower Valley, Yaowang Temple, thousand-year-old apricot trees, and Jiulong Spring. "Rehe Traditional Chinese Medicine Flower Town" has become a tourist attraction integrating "flower sightseeing, specialty picking, nostalgia experience, business meetings, traditional Chinese medicine science popularization and health preservation". In May this year, it was approved by the Chengde Municipal Tourism Bureau as a 3A-level scenic spot. As of early September this year, it had received more than 100,000 Chinese and foreign tourists.

In order to solve the employment problem of the poor households in the village, the assistance idea of "one place generates four funds" was determined after repeated research. By investing poverty alleviation funds in the company, poor households can receive a dividend of 940 yuan per year; villagers can transfer their own land and receive annual rents of 650 yuan to 1,000 yuan per mu; villagers can also work in Chinese herbal medicine companies to perform planting, weeding and other operations Earn a salary. At the same time, by developing rural eco-tourism around 3A-level scenic spots, you can also earn some cash by engaging in the service industry or selling some local products.

The effects of "tourism + poverty alleviation" and "industry + poverty alleviation" are gradually emerging. Sun Shihe said that poor households can increase their income by about 6,000 yuan per year through stock ownership, employment, land rent, etc. At the end of 2018, Xiayingzi Village withdrew from the list of poor villages. The poverty alleviation model of "one land produces four funds" has effectively improved farmers' production and life, achieved stable employment, and bulged the villagers' pockets.
