"When it comes to famous buildings such as the Yuanmingyuan, the Temple of Heaven, and the Forbidden City, everyone knows it, and this is the hometown of lei, the founder of these royal buildings, and the only ethnic minority village in Yongxiu County." On July 24, in the "Style Lei" Cultural Square of The Lei Family Group in Xinzhuang Village, Yongxiu County, Jiangxi Province, tourists were listening carefully to the tour guide's explanations, enjoying the beautiful natural scenery, and recording the new appearance of the beautiful countryside with the lens.
Located in the northern region of Jiangxi Province, Yongxiu County Xinzhuang Village is the ancestral home of the "style Lei" ancestor Lei Developed, from the Qing Dynasty Shunzhi to Xuantong years, for more than 260 years, Lei Developed family of eight generations and ten people because of the long-term management of the royal architectural style of the special design agency "Style House", known as "Style Lei", the village also built "Style Lei" village history museum.

In order to revitalize the small villages that are "raised in the deep and unknown", the local excavation of "style thunder" culture, the creation of ethnic minority villages, and the support of the development of the She's industry, the former "obscure" small mountain villages are gradually becoming famous sightseeing tourism "net red" punch points.
"Xinzhuang Village is geographically remote, with poor conditions and weak foundation. In the past, the road to the village was narrow and in disrepair, making it extremely inconvenient for villagers to go out. Now it's good, the wide road leads directly to the doorstep, which is really convenient! Talking about the road changes in Xinzhuang Village, Tang Yousheng, secretary of the party branch of the village, was deeply touched. And this is also a microcosm of the beautiful butterfly transformation of Xinzhuang Village.

How to inherit the craftsman concept pursued by "Style Ray" for generations and the excellent family style of a hundred years? Yongxiu County organically combined celebrity culture and united front culture, invested 300,000 yuan to build a "Tongxin Square" in the village, set up a concentric propaganda gallery, and built a white jade statue of Lei Dahan. The Yongxiu County Style Lei Culture Research Association was established, and a foundation was established to help poor students and reward outstanding students through fundraising, charity sale of style lei books, and charity sale of style lei handicrafts.
Not only that, the county has also taken "Style Lei" and "Ten Articles of Lei's Family Training" as teaching and research models, opened a special course of "Entering "Style Lei"" in all central primary schools in the county, and printed a reading book for primary and secondary school students of "Entering "Style Lei", so that good family style and good family training can be integrated into the daily life of teenagers.
"The ancestral house of 'Style Lei' was built in the fifty-sixth year of the Qianlong Dynasty (1791), which has a history of 230 years..." Every weekend, Lei Ziqi, a student studying at Jiujiang Vocational University, always returns to her hometown to explain the "Style Lei" craftsman spirit and the "Lei family training" to tourists.
With the fame of "style Lei" and she's characteristic villages, tourists who come to Xinzhuang Village to visit are also endless, as a native of the She, Lei Ziqi volunteered to be a docent. "As long as I can publicize the craftsman spirit of 'Style Lei' and enhance the popularity of our She's village, it is also what I should do no matter how hard I am." Lei Ziqi said.
The "old village" has a "new look", and the industry is the key. Due to the long-term lack of pillar industries, the income of villagers is generally not high. The local government has accelerated the development of the ethnic village industry and established an agricultural cooperative, planting more than 120 acres of navel oranges and bayberry, and opening a breeding farm, with an annual output value of more than 800,000 yuan. At the same time, in order to promote the collective economic development of the village and implement "hematopoietic" assistance, the United Front Work Department of the Yongxiu County CPC Committee won 100,000 yuan of project funds from the superiors, and invested in the name of the village committee to ensure that the annual dividend was not less than 10,000 yuan.
In addition, the local area not only vigorously develops industries, but also uses tourism to "bring in" tourists. The "Style Lei" ancestral house has gradually integrated with the folk customs experience of the She, farming culture and leisure experience, and slowly approached the hearts of tourists. According to statistics, the per capita income of the Leijia group in Xinzhuang Village has increased from 16,000 yuan in 2016 to 28,000 yuan in 2020.
Nowadays, walking in the Lei family group of Xinzhuang Village, the small mountain village has become a scenic spot, with rows of houses and wide and flat roads, depicting a new picture of the beautiful countryside, and the "style Lei" hometown, a unique ethnic minority village, is attracting tourists from all over the world to come and make people linger.
