"When I came here, I learned that the designers of the Yuanmingyuan, the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven and other buildings came from here, and these hot samples and drawings made me feel that ancient Chinese architecture is really profound." On the 26th, Zhang Xinbiao, a tourist from Nanchang, took photos with his mobile phone in the "Style Lei" Village History Museum of The Lei Family Group in Xinzhuang Village, Yongxiu County, Jiangxi Province.
The imperial architectural design agency of the Qing Dynasty was called "style room". For more than 260 years in the Qing Dynasty, seven generations of the Lei family have served as the chief designers of the style house, designing and building a series of royal buildings such as altar temples, gardens, mausoleums, palaces, etc., which are deeply branded with "Lei style", so they are called "style Lei".
Xinzhuang Village, Meitang Town, Yongxiu County, located in the northern region of Jiangxi Province, is the ancestral home of lei, the ancestor of "Style Lei", and it is also a village inhabited by the She. "Yongxiu Eight Generations style Lei, half of China's architectural history" is a good summary of the historical background of this village. But for a long time, these cultural heritages were not cared about, and this small village was branded "poverty".
"The geographical location of our village is relatively remote, and the road into and out of the village has fallen into disrepair, which has greatly restricted the development of this village." Lei Youyuan, who was born and raised in the village, said that due to the inconvenience of transportation, employment and schooling in Xinzhuang Village, the younger generation went out to work, and the village was gradually "hollowed out", and the "style Lei" ancient houses were also damaged.
But now when you walk here, you can see a series of ditches crisscrossing each other, rows of trees are scattered, and in front of the "Style Lei" Village History Museum, endless tourists are visiting the "Style Lei" old house, family rules and family training, and exhibition room. The former "hollow village" has been transformed into an internet celebrity village where tourists compete to "punch in".
"Now the wide road can be directly connected to the doorstep, 'style thunder' and 'She's culture' are the characteristics of the village, we have to dig well." Tang Yousheng, secretary of the party branch of the village, said that Yongxiu County fully excavated the cultural spirit of "style thunder", supported the development of the She's industry, and adopted the model of "she's ethnic characteristic village + agriculture + tourism" to explore a unique rural revitalization road.
According to Tang Yousheng, the local government has made full use of the "style lei" cultural spirit and ecological resources, vigorously developed tourism, and created a sightseeing spot integrating the "style lei" ancestral house, the she's folk customs experience, and the farming culture and leisure experience. According to statistics, the per capita income of the Leijia group in Xinzhuang Village has increased from 16,000 yuan (RMB) in 2016 to 28,000 yuan in 2020.
Due to the long-term lack of pillar industries, the income of villagers in the village is generally not high. To this end, the local promotion of the development of ethnic village industry set up an agricultural cooperative, planting navel oranges, bayberry a total of more than 120 acres, opened a breeding farm, the annual output value of up to more than 800,000 yuan.
"Now I can not only live a well-off life myself, but also help others get rid of poverty and get rich together within my ability." Lei Youyuan, who once "complained" about the inconvenience of transportation in the village, is the founder of a local biotechnology company that specializes in the production of smokeless carbon. At the same time, 8 poor households in the village were absorbed to work in the company, and the project funds of the village committee to the superior were invested in the company with 100,000 yuan to ensure that the annual dividend was not less than 10,000 yuan, which provided a guarantee for the village's collective economic income.
With the fame of "style lei" and she characteristic villages, Xinzhuang Village receives nearly 10,000 tourists every year, attracting a large number of foreign tourists to learn the "style lei" culture and sightseeing tourism, which is not only popular, but also makes local tourism and local souvenirs "suck gold" countless.
"Our 'Style Lei' Village History Museum is open to the public free of charge throughout the year, and the main purpose is to publicize the cultural spirit of 'Style Lei', as long as there are more tourists, the revitalization of our village and countryside will also live." Tang Yousheng is full of confidence in the future development of the village. (End)
