Southeast Network Ningde April 15 news (this network reporter Qiu Lijuan Wu Wenwei) "Yo, this side is the sports center, there is our family community..." Lingtou Village, which is more than 800 meters above sea level, has become an excellent viewing spot for Ningde citizens to see the city and overlook the whole city. Liu Laosen, the secretary of the village party committee, was busy greeting the guests who came to visit. In the past, villagers looked to the city and lamented that they were hungry for food and clothing; now, villagers drive private cars to the city and run around the village.

The origin of the transformation is that the village has built a road to prosperity. In October 2000, under the care of Xi Jinping, then governor of Fujian Province, special funds were allocated to build a road from the three villages of Lianfeng to the urban area, so that the people on this side got rid of poverty and backwardness, and were moving towards a road of rural revitalization with the characteristics of eastern Fujian.

Lingtou Village, together with the neighboring villages of Yecuo and Tanaka, is called "Lianfeng Three Villages", located in the remote Lianfeng MountainOus Area in the northwest of Chengnan Town, Ningde Jiaocheng District, although it is only a mountain away from the city, but in the early days, due to the rugged mountain roads and poor traffic, the development of lianfeng three villages was relatively slow.

Today, the three villages have a new look, the roads are wider, the countryside is beautiful, the villagers' pockets are bulging, and the happiness of the masses is constantly improving. The former poor mountain village is writing a new chapter in rural revitalization.

Industrial revitalization lays a solid foundation for development

The industry is excellent, and the rural revitalization has confidence. "Industry is in a top and important position for rural revitalization, and only by developing the industry can rural revitalization turn external 'blood transfusion' into its own 'hematopoiesis' and lay a solid foundation for future development." Zhou Shuisheng, a rural revitalization instructor in Lingtou Village, said.

In order to implement General Secretary Xi Jinping's important exposition on the implementation of the rural revitalization strategy and the spirit of an important reply to the villagers of the party, in 2019, on the basis of the selection of 525 first secretaries stationed in villages in provinces, cities and counties, Ningde City innovated the "rural revitalization instructor" system, and selected leading cadres who are close to retirement, have local feelings, and have rich experience in rural work to return to their hometowns as rural revitalization instructors.

After being stationed in the village, the rural revitalization instructors maintained the enthusiasm of "only seizing the day" and the tenacity of "dripping water through the stones", and actively participated in the fiery practice of rural revitalization with a high sense of political responsibility and historical mission. They have really done solid work in promoting grass-roots party building, industrial revitalization, infrastructure construction, and solving people's livelihood problems, and have brought new changes and new atmospheres that can be seen and felt to the villages stationed at the sites.

The three rural revitalization instructors of the "Lianfeng Three Villages" worked together, and the three villages began the road of group development. Relying on the rich mountain resources and with the support of the higher-level departments, the three villages have built agricultural industry demonstration bases, formed professional cooperatives, vigorously promoted the comprehensive development of mountainous areas, and gradually developed characteristic agricultural industries and aquaculture industries such as vegetables and fruits, oil tea, etc., and the masses in mountainous areas have continued to increase their incomes and their living conditions have been greatly improved.

At present, Lingtou Village has opened up more than 100 acres of land for the development of urban vegetable garden projects; the Tanaka Village Flower Planting Professional Cooperative has now planted more than 30 acres of cherry blossoms and ziwei seedlings; Yecuo Village has introduced new varieties of tea such as golden peony and yellow rose; ornamental flowers and trees such as osmanthus cherry blossoms have been planted in the tea garden, and the industrial projects in various villages are in full swing...

In addition, in November 2019, sancun opened the road of group development and jointly established Lianfeng Sancun Food Co., Ltd., which mainly processes agricultural and sideline products such as sweet potatoes and flour buckles. This is the first food company collectively established by Lianfeng Three Villages, which can increase the annual income of 100,000 yuan per village on average, and the village-level collective economy is further developing and growing.

Cultural tourism revitalization revitalizes rural civilization

Culture is flourishing, and rural revitalization is vibrant. In April, the three villages of Lianfeng are full of herbs and ancient roads. Stroll along the Baiheling Ancient Official Road that runs through the three villages – the valley is swaying with the wind, the terraces are stacked, the tea gardens are covered with mist, and a fresh pastoral picture is slowly unfolding here, making people pass by linger. In the past Qingming small long holiday, here has attracted a lot of surrounding citizens, come to play.

As an important tea and salt ancient road in the Ming and Qing dynasties of Ningde and even the early Republic of China, the three villages of Lianfeng are rich in cultural and tourism resources and have profound cultural heritage. There are many existing ming and qing dynasty ancient buildings in the territory, and the tourism development is full of momentum, which adds vitality to the three villages of Lianfeng to take the road of rural revitalization. In 2019, Baiheling Ancient Official Road was approved as the eighth batch of national key cultural relics protection units, and Yecuo Village was also included in the fifth batch of traditional Chinese villages.

According to Ling Qingxian, a municipal rural revitalization instructor in Yecuo Village, Yecuo Village is entrusting the design unit to carry out the restoration and design of the Baiheling Ancient Road, and has completed the preliminary plan design and been included in the cultural industry development plan of The Banana City in 2020. In the future, the protection planning and repair of the ancient villages in Yecuo Village will be further strengthened, and the ancient official road of Baiheling will be deeply promoted.

Revitalization of people's livelihood Improve the appearance of villages

The people's livelihood is strong, and the revitalization of the countryside is guaranteed. Nowadays, when you come to Lianfeng Three Villages, climb on the viewing platform built by Lingtou Village to look at the sea, whether it is the Wanda intersection with busy traffic, the Dongqiao area with high-rise buildings, or the Sanduao that is ready to go... The whole city of Ningde can be seen here.

All this is due to the upgrading of the infrastructure in the village by the three villages. In recent years, Lianfeng Three Villages has insisted on improving the development results of people's livelihood security, and has made up for the shortcomings of people's livelihood by promoting the upgrading and transformation of infrastructure in Lianfeng Three Villages.

Among them, Lingtou Village has completed the forest trail finishing and repair of damaged sections, the construction of the Agricultural Tourism Cultural Center and the Lingtouxia Cultural Square has begun to take shape; Tanaka Village has completed the construction of the flood control landscape pond in the Tianqiu, and the work of the beautiful rural cultural corridor is being carried out in an orderly manner; Yecuo Village has completed the widening and transformation of the village road and the increase of parking spaces at the entrance of the village, and plans to build a small and medium-sized park in the village to enhance the appearance of the village.

When the civil tile houses become small bungalows, the palm-sized dirt road becomes a cement road several meters wide; when the street lamp extends to every household, the beautiful rural construction projects such as leisure squares and landscape lakes are landed one by one, and the three small mountain villages that used to be entrenched in the depths of the mountains are ushering in their own beautiful butterfly changes.

Revitalization of qualified personnel and building a strong grassroots fortress

Talents are booming, and rural revitalization is driven. In 2015, by chance, Ningde Green World Ecological Agriculture Development Co., Ltd. settled in Lingtou Village through the Chengnan Town Merchants Association to help the "Lianfeng Mountain" poverty alleviation and development.

According to Zhang Shiren, head of Green World Company, since Green World settled in, through the planting and sale of kiwifruit, mulberries, and peaches, entrepreneurship has driven employment, providing a large number of employment opportunities for surrounding villagers, coupled with site rent, which can bring 300,000-400,000 yuan of income to Lingtou Village every year.

There are more and more people like Zhang Shiren who are contributing to the revitalization of the countryside. Two years ago, Ma Zhongsheng, a cadre of the Political and Legal Committee of the Ningde Municipal CPC Committee, left the organ and came to Tanaka Village to carry out work as a rural revitalization instructor. During this period, he visited the villagers with the village cadres, traveled to many places, and finally formulated the development plan of Tanaka Village. With the landing of the village road, the field road, and the village road, looking at the Tanaka Village, which is constantly approaching the planning goal, Ma Zhongsheng is very satisfied.

The three villages of Lianfeng, once backward in infrastructure, continue to expel young people. In order to solve the problem of talent shortage and comprehensively promote rural revitalization, Ningde City innovated the rural revitalization instructor system, and through the selection of experienced and high-quality party members and cadres to the village, truly sink to the front line, plan for local villagers, solve problems, promote development, and promote more resources, talents and policies to gather in the countryside, so that the masses can really benefit.

Lingtou, Tanaka and Yecuo, three ordinary and special small mountain villages, are turning from the poor ravines of the past to becoming the "urban back garden" for citizens to hike and relax in the suburbs. A door to get rid of poverty and get rich slowly opened, the dream of Ben Xiaokang shone into reality, and smiles were already on the faces of villagers.
