The car drove into the village, every household built a three- or four-story building, the road hardened to the door of the house, the car on the road one after another, tricycles, motorcycles, etc. became a necessary means of transportation for every family, and there were more supermarkets in the town, so there was no need to go to the county to buy New Year's goods......

Daoxiang Village is a traditional agricultural village, and one-sixth of the villagers here work outside the village all year round. "Thanks to the party's good policies, our hometown has changed, the old houses have a new look, our people have a good life, and it has become very convenient for schooling, medical treatment, and employment. Liu Kai said that thinking of the previous living environment and various inconveniences, compared with the current environment that is improving year by year, it is a world of difference.
