In Yunding Town, Nanjiang County, Bazhong City, Sichuan Province, as long as the name of Chen Xiaoying of the Sansen Medicinal Materials Planting Professional Cooperative in Yunfeng Village is mentioned, it can be said that no one knows, and no one does not praise her as a "strong woman". Because she and her husband Tan Shuangping returned to her hometown in 2012 to establish a professional cooperative for the cultivation of medicinal materials, up to now, a total of 1,000 mu of Chinese medicinal materials such as peony and chrysanthemum have been planted, and more than 10,000 mu of Chinese medicinal materials have been planted by neighbors and neighbors, and more than 80 large planters have been developed.
Chen Xiaoying picks goldenrod chrysanthemums at the Chinese herbal medicine planting base
"My mother's family is in Jinzhai County, Lu'an City, Anhui Province, before getting married, I opened a garment factory with my husband in Shanghai, and after getting married in 2007, I gradually germinated the idea of returning to my hometown with my husband to start a business." On January 6, I met Chen Xiaoying in a simple factory building at the top of Yunfeng Village in Genting Town, where she told her entrepreneurial story while turning over the golden silk imperial chrysanthemum.
"In the Spring Festival of 2012, I went back to Nanjiang with my husband to visit my family, and when I saw this beautiful scenery of beautiful mountains and rivers and a vast area, I decided not to go out anymore. During the festival, in the conversation with relatives and friends, I learned that there is a history of growing Chinese medicinal materials such as peony and golden chrysanthemum, and I made up my mind to develop the Chinese herbal medicine industry. Chen Xiaoying said: "Because my mother's family is close to Bozhou, Anhui, is the 'world capital of traditional Chinese medicine', but also the country's largest chinese herbal medicine trading market, there are many relatives in the medicinal materials business, the medicinal materials planted are not worried about sales." Therefore, after the Spring Festival of that year, the garment factory in Shanghai was transferred to its peers, and the funds were invested in the development of the Chinese herbal medicine industry in Nanjiang. ”
"Our village has transferred a lot of land before, most of them have not started the industry, and some have not even paid the land circulation fee to the people, so the villagers have concerns, plus she is a foreign daughter-in-law, the villagers do not know her details, and they were worried that she would leave a mess." Tan Xiaofeng, secretary of the party branch of Yunfeng Village, said: "I didn't expect that she had such a big determination, and at that time, she took out more than 300,000 yuan at once and paid the 30-year contract fee for 300 mu of mountainous land in one lump sum." ”
"You see, it took nearly a year to reclaim this barren mountain." Chen Xiaoying introduced while leading the author on a tour: "In order to catch the season, in the winter of 2015, I fought in this snow for more than 30 days, and in 2016, I planted medicinal herbs such as golden chrysanthemum, white root, and orange stem. Unexpectedly, in the harvest season of 2017, because of the rain and the lack of a baking house, all the medicinal materials harvested were moldy, and the investment of more than 800,000 yuan was adrift. ”
Giving up halfway is not Chen Xiaoying's style of doing things. In the winter of 2017 and the spring of 2018, she spent more than half a year digging deep into the land, and built a baking house, a freezer, and adopted the 'set, seed, and raise' ecological cycle breeding model of 'combining short and long, long and short' in farming, thus seeing considerable benefits in 2018. In the next two years, she wrapped up the surrounding barren hillsides, so that the scale of medicinal material planting reached 1,000 mu, and set up a primary processing factory for Chinese herbal medicines; in 2021, the cooperative achieved a turnover of more than 6 million yuan.
"During The May Day period, these mountain beams are all peony flowers; after the National Day, the top of this mountain is full of golden chrysanthemums, and the original barren mountain has become a 'flower mountain', and our income is higher than one year!" Villager Tan Shouzhao said with emotion that last year, he earned nearly 20,000 yuan in mountain circulation fees, chinese medicinal materials and labor fees in Chen Xiaoying's hands, which was not expected before.
"Our Chinese herbal medicines here have opened up sales channels in the Anhui medicinal materials market, as long as the people hand over the products, the processing and sales are counted as mine." Chen Xiaoying took over the stubble and said that in the next step, relying on the advantages of AAAA-level tourism resources in Genting Tea Farm, we will do a good job in "Chinese herbal medicine + ecological tourism", "Chinese herbal medicine + leisure health", "Chinese herbal medicine + healthy diet" and other prolific integration articles, so that more people will embark on the road of relying on "mountains" and "flowers" to increase income and get rich.
