During the Spring Festival, Tian Lei, a villager in Daquangou Town, Yangqu County, who had moved into a relocation house for poverty alleviation in a different part of the county, returned to the village to see his "baby knot" - a 210-horsepower tractor purchased a few years ago. This is his New Year wish this year, which has been fulfilled ahead of schedule. He took the cloth and wiped the tractor that had just been wiped and wiped it again. "In the past few years, I have relied on these agricultural machinery to 'run' in the field and win my own battle against poverty." Tian Lei said excitedly.
Tian Lei, industrious and simple, originally drove a loading truck and did odd jobs for a living, the family had two daughters, and the family of four lived happily ever after. But a sudden and serious illness plunged the otherwise happy family into pain. In December 2012, Tian Lei suddenly felt a pang of colic in his heart, and his wife quickly helped him to the hospital for examination - myocardial infarction and needed heart stent surgery, at least 200,000 yuan. "Driving a big car before getting sick, the business is not good, the family owes 80,000 yuan in foreign debt, how can this disease be handled?" Looking at the test results, the wife cried bitterly. In order to cure Tian Lei's illness, his wife smashed pots and sold iron to spend all the family's savings, borrowed money everywhere and owed a lot of foreign debts.
After the town and village cadres learned of Tian Lei's family situation, in 2013, they included him in the poor households of the lika, and went into the households to explain to him the insurance policy for the serious illness of the poor households, and the reimbursement rate of hospitalization expenses reached 90%, and the high-cost patients' serious illness insurance was reimbursed again. This greatly reduced Tian Lei's economic burden. After being discharged from the hospital, although Tian Lei's health has recovered, many employing units are afraid to hire him for fear of accidents, and finding a job has become a problem.
"You are not fit for heavy work, you have driven a loading truck before, now why not try to drive an agricultural machine?" Poverty alleviation cadres often went to Tian Lei's house to chat with him and give him advice. "I also want to be a farmer, but this money..." A penny is difficult for the hero, and when it comes to money, Tian Lei lowers his head again.
After the state issued the "Guiding Opinions on Innovative Development of Poverty Alleviation Microfinance", village and town cadres thought of Tian Lei for the first time and took the document to introduce the poverty alleviation microfinance policy to Tian Lei. The poverty alleviation microfinance policy of "term 3 years, benchmark interest rate, mortgage-free, collateral-free, and full government discount" is like a "timely rain", so that he who has always wanted to start a business can see the hope of getting rid of poverty and getting rich.
At the end of 2016, under the guidance of town and village cadres, Tian Lei applied to the Agricultural Bank of Yangqu County for 50,000 yuan of poverty alleviation microcredit funds. He used the loan funds to purchase agricultural machinery such as tractors, rotary cultivators, and field return machines, and began the entrepreneurial road of an agricultural mechanic.
In order to better operate the tractor and rotary cultivator, Tian Lei systematically mastered the maintenance and use knowledge of tractors and rotary cultivators, and achieved a net income of more than 15,000 yuan in 2017, and since then Tian Lei has embarked on the road of poverty alleviation. With money in his pocket and information about getting rich in his head, Tian Lei's path to getting rid of poverty and getting rich is getting wider and wider. From 2016 to 2020, Tian Lei applied for poverty alleviation microcredit every year, invested nearly 200,000 yuan successively, purchased large tractors, flip plows and supporting agricultural machinery, and threw himself into the team of cross-regional operations with farmers who understood agricultural machinery technology around him. Tian Lei's good operation quality, sincere service attitude and skillful driving operation technology have won the trust and praise of farmers, and have also obtained a net profit of more than 20,000 yuan per year.
Sesame blossoms are getting higher and higher! Starting with the purchase of a 130-horsepower tractor in 2017, Tian Lei has continuously updated his equipment, replacing the 180-horsepower tractor in 2019 and replacing it with the current 210-horsepower tractor at the end of 2020. The county called for the relocation of immigrants, and he became the first "crab eater" in the village, buying a 76-square-meter house in the relocation area of the county town East Road. "The house is a small three-bedroom house, and the two children and the two of us have their own bedrooms." Tian Lei's lover cleaned up the house.
"The days are really good, the children study and subsidies, all this thanks to the poverty alleviation policies of the party and the state, and I sincerely thank the party and the country." Tian Lei often said this. In November last year, Tian Lei did another heart stent operation, and the cost of surgery and treatment was more than 20,000 yuan, because of the medical assistance policy for serious diseases with precise poverty alleviation, he only paid more than 7,000 yuan.
"This year, I will also apply for poverty alleviation microcredit, change the tractor, plough, rotary cultivator also have to change, so that the ploughing and ploughing the land can save half the time, and the cost will be reduced a lot." His body was better, and Tian Lei's motivation was even stronger. He said: "It is the party and the state that have helped me, and I must always keep this kindness in mind, continue to work hard, and repay the villagers." ”
It's New Year's Day. Tian Lei's home has been pasted with spring leagues, and lanterns have been hung at the door of the community, looking at this joyful atmosphere, he is happy in his heart, the Year of the Ox must be a happy year. Li Jiehua
