“The sales of edible mushrooms such as Flammulina velutipes have obvious periodicity. The sales in the second and third quarters of each year are not good, and the company is losing money. However, liquor products are more anti-cyclical. There is no obvious off-peak season and can be effective. Supplement the company’s operations.” A related person from Zhongxing Fungi told Times Finance.

After rubbing shoulders with Yuancheng Gold (600766.SH), the Shengjiao Liquor Industry, a wine company in Moutai Town, was spotted by another listed company. This time the buyer was a company that sells enoki mushrooms.

On the evening of June 20, Zhongxing Fungus (002772.SZ), whose main business is the cultivation of Flammulina velutipes and Agaricus bisporus, issued an announcement stating that it intends to acquire Guizhou Maotai Town Shengjiao Wine Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as “Shengjiao Wine”) in cash. Industry”) 100% equity.
Why did a company selling enoki mushrooms and other agricultural products suddenly intervene in the liquor industry?
In an interview with Times Finance and Economics on June 21, a relevant person of Zhongxing Fungus Industry stated that the purpose of acquiring Shengjiao Wine Industry is mainlyIn order to expand the second revenue growth point, butAt present, the parties to the merger and acquisition have only reached a preliminary intention, and the specific purchase price has not yet been determined.
“The sales of edible mushrooms such as Flammulina velutipes have obvious periodicity. The sales situation in the second and third quarters of each year is not good. The company often loses money, and the consumption of liquor products is more anti-cyclical, and there is no obvious off-peak season. , Can effectively supplement the company’s revenue.” The person said.
Shengjiao Winery Curve goes public?
inCrowdXingBefore the announcement of the acquisition by Fungus Industry, Shengjiao Wine Industry was almost in the pocket of “the smallest A-share listed company” Yuancheng Gold to achieve a curve listing.
On September 22, 2020, Yuancheng Gold, which has only 20 employees, announced that it intends to acquire 100% equity of Shengjiao Wine Industry.But after 2 months, Yuancheng Gold announced the acquisitiontermination, The reason is that the two parties in the transaction cannot reach an agreement on the valuation.

In addition to backdoor A-share listed companies, Shengjiao Wine Industry has also revealed its plans to list in Hong Kong. In September 2018, at the Sino-Chongqing Liquor Exchange Center Promotion Conference and Shengjiao Shares 2020 listing briefing held by Xinfeitian Winery Group, the parent company of Shengjiao Wine Industry, in Nanjing, Xinfeitian Wine Industry Group stated that in order to speed up Shengjiao Wine For the development of the industry, the company plans to be listed on the Hong Kong Main Board in 2020. However, the company’s latest statement on this is that it originally planned to go public in Hong Kong, but taking into account the impact of various factors such as the epidemic, it suspended its plan to go public in Hong Kong. Today, Shengjiao Wine Industry has become one of the wine companies that the Renhuai Municipal Government of Guizhou promotes to go public. In June of this year, Shengjiao Winery, together with Guotai Winery, Xiaohuduxian Winery, Zhenjiu Winery, Yanbo Winery Co., Ltd. and many other well-known wine companies in Guizhou, appeared in the Guizhou Province listing announced by the Guizhou Local Financial Supervision and Administration Bureau. Listed in the list of backup enterprise resource libraries. In October 2020, Wang Nengke, deputy secretary and mayor of Renhuai City, also held a listing work scheduling meeting in Shengjiao Wine Industry to listen to and study and solve the difficult problems in the listing process of Shengjiao Wine Industry. He said that all relevant departments in the city It is necessary to vigorously support the listing of Shengjiao Wine Industry, under the principle of not touching the bottom line and not touching the red line, special and urgent matters must be handled quickly. Relevant departments must go deep into the enterprise site to find out the situation of the enterprise, and solve the problems of taxation, asset reorganization, and precise land use and location in accordance with the law. After rubbing shoulders with Yuancheng Gold, Zhongxing Mushroom has become another hope for Shengjiao Wines to be listed on the curve. Fineness to be tested The move to seek listing is quite positive, but the fineness of the Shengjiao wine industry has yet to be tested. Public information shows that Shengjiao Wine Industry was established on June 30, 2011, with a registered capital of 144 million yuan (RMB, belowSame), Liu Jian and Liu Liangyue hold 99.5% and 0.5% of the shares respectively. Shengjiao Winery is located in the core production area of ​​7.5 square kilometers of soy wine in Maotai Town. Currently, it has achieved a production capacity of 60,000 tons of wine and 3,500 tons of annual wine. CrowdXingIn the above announcement, Fungus Industry stated that the sauce-flavored liquor products such as “Holy Cellar”, “Imperial Saint Cellar” and “Hundred Years Saint Cellar” of Shengjiao Liquor Industry have been rated as “the first most internationally popular Chinese wine appraisal activity in 2012.” “Gold Award”, “Chinese Consumer Satisfaction Famous Special Excellent Liquor”, “Leading Brand of Chinese Liquor Industry”, “Top Ten Famous Products of Chinese Liquor Industry”, “China Famous Brand” and other titles. However, according to the brewing process of Maotai-flavored liquor, the general production cycle of Maotai-flavored new liquor takes 1 year, and the new liquor produced will not enter the market until it is stored for about 5 years. For example, it usually takes a bottle of Moutai from production to delivery. It took 5 years. Shengjiao Wine Industry was only established in 2011. How did it win the above awards in one year? In addition, the publicXingThe statement in the announcement by Fungus Industry that “Shengjiao Wine Industry has achieved a national distribution of sales channels” is also worthy of scrutiny. Times Finance noted that the number of fans in the flagship store of Tmall Shengjiao is only 892. The store sells more than 10 types of Shengjiao wines, priced from 43 yuan/bottle to 4999 yuan/bottle, of which the highest sales volume is “53 degrees”. “Daqu sauce-flavored liquor tasting small bottle” is priced at 43 yuan per bottle, and the monthly sales volume is only 82, while the monthly sales of most other products are 0.On JD.com, another e-commerce platform, Times Finance did not inquire about the relevant products of Shengjiao Winery. At the same time, some liquor dealers in Guangzhou, Zhengzhou and other places think that the Shengjiao wine industry is somewhat unknown. They told Times Finance that they rarely see Shengjiao Winery’s products locally. When Yuancheng Gold acquired Shengjiao Winery, it also received an inquiry letter from the Shanghai Stock Exchange due to the strange growth of the latter’s performance. According to the data previously disclosed by Yuancheng Gold, Shengjiao Winery lost 2.794 million yuan in 2018 and turned a profit of 8.1103 million yuan in 2019. 2020In the first 8 months,Shengjiao Winery made a profit of 10.148 million yuan again. However, Yuancheng Gold did not explain why the performance of Shengjiao Wine Industry has seen explosive growth in the past two years. In the impression of local people in Moutai Town, Shengjiao Wine Industry is more like a liquor sales company than a liquor company that integrates production and sales. “They usually buy wine from other wineries to make OEM products for sale. It is rare to hear that they produce and sell themselves.” On June 20, a Moutai town wine shop operator told Times Finance and Economics. As for the specific asset strength and operating conditions of Shengjiao Winery, the above-mentioned people from Zhongxing Fungus Industry said that they are not clear about Times Finance. “We have just sent an audit and accounting team to the past. After the statistics and inventory are completed, we will have a clear understanding of the Shengjiao Wine Industry, and then decide whether to acquire it in the end.” The person also told Times Finance that the company has understood that the acquisition of Shengjiao Winery and Yuancheng Gold was finally discontinued due to the failure to negotiate the valuation, but it is not clear about the proposed acquisition between Shengjiao Winery and Yuancheng Gold. price. He also emphasized that now the two parties have only reached a preliminary intention, and the acquisition has not officially started. Why do mushroom sellers sell liquor? Unlike Yuancheng Gold, which has an annual revenue of only more than 10 million yuan, Zhongxing Fungus has a solid industry and market. Public information shows that Zhongxing Fungus Industry is located in Tianshui City, Gansu Province. It is a factory modern agricultural enterprise specializing in the research and development, production and sales of edible fungi. As of December 31, 2019, the daily production capacity of Zhongxing Mushroom edible fungi was 905 tons, of which the daily production capacity of Flammulina velutipes was 745 tons and the daily production capacity of Agaricus bisporus was 160 tons. According to the financial report, in 2020, Zhongxing Fungus Industry achieved revenue of 1.483 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 28.32%, and a net profit of 189 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 176.24%. A local government official in Tianshui City told Times Finance that Zhongxing Fungus Industry is currently one of only three listed companies in Tianshui City. The local government has a lot of support. In addition to tax exemption, certain financial subsidies will be given every year. Why did a little-known liquor company with doubts about the product market become the “sweet pastry” in the eyes of a mushroom manufacturer after missing the Yuancheng rice wine? Many investors believe that after the acquisition of Shengjiao Liquor, Zhongxing Mushroom can be stained with today’s hot liquor concept and raise its stock price and market value. “As long as the liquor can take off, the daily limit will definitely not be less,” said some investors. The above-mentioned people from Zhongxing Fungus Industry told Times Finance: “The sales of edible mushrooms such as Flammulina velutipes are obviously cyclical. The sales in the second and third quarters of each year are not good, and the company often loses money. And the anti-cyclical nature of liquor products Stronger, there is no obvious off-peak season, which can effectively supplement the company’s operations.” Times Finance checked the financial reports of Zhongxing Fungus Industry over the years and found that Zhongxing Fungus Industry made a loss in the second quarter of 2020, the second quarter and the third quarter of 2019. In addition, the high gross profit margin of liquor products also makes mushrooms and other agricultural products unmatched. The financial report shows that the gross profit margin of Zhongxing Fungus Industry in 2020 is only 27.60%. In contrast, the gross profit margin of many listed liquor companies exceeds 70%, and the gross profit margin of Moutai is more than 90%. Zhongxing Fungus Industry also told Times Finance that despite the support of taxation and other financial policies, the gross profit margin of fungus products is much lower than that of liquor products. It should be pointed out that in terms of sales channels and marketing, mushrooms and other fungus products are very different from liquor. If it succeeds in acquiring Shengjiao Winery, how will Zhongxing Fungus deal with the relationship between the two major businesses in the future? The above-mentioned people from Zhongxing Fungus Industry told Times Finance that, like Fosun and other foreign capitals acquiring liquor companies, if the acquisition is successful, the company will not intervene in the specific sales and channels of Shengjiao, and will completely leave it to the original team for operation. We just use baijiu as a supplement to revenue.” As of June 20, the stock price of Zhongxing Fungus Industry had a daily limit of RMB 9.64 per share. From June 15th to June 18th, the stock price of Zhongxing Bacteria has risen for four consecutive days.

The reason why Tibet attracts a large number of foreign tourists is undoubtedly because of the unique charm of Tibet. There is a world-renowned sacred mountain and holy lake. There is also the unique local customs there. On the way to Tibet, we saw unforgettable beautiful scenery, but what made me more interested was the local customs. I think that is the true charm of Tibet. We drove to a small town called Payang Town and stayed here at night. Payang is a prairie town with a western flavor. The streets are full of clean dust. The town is loosely lined with neatly arranged houses. The Tibetan residents who go between the alleys are also very resident in their clothes. Now the Tibetan compatriots are very Chinese in their dress. In 2005, I saw Tibetan women in Payang town wearing very primitive Tibetan robes. There is also a large pasture outside the town. Cows and sheep swim among the green grasslands and snow-capped mountains, creating a picturesque pastoral scenery. They live in an environment surrounded by mountains and lakes. Seeing them wandering around the town freely, I feel that they are carefree. Payang Town is not very big. The square in the center of the town is an important meeting and exchange place for the whole town. There are often many Tibetans hanging out here, and children running around chasing and playing. Many unique pictures of people can be taken here. . A lot of people walked around here, as if they were celebrating a festival. There was a temple beside the square, and there was a prayer wheel beside the temple. The elderly Tibetan compatriots were walking with rosary beads in their hands and silently chanting Tibetan. After the war, his face showed a very pious look, turning around the prayer wheel round and round. They were wearing shabby Tibetan robes, their faces were dark and red, with sunburn on their faces, typical plateau red. I’m better at capturing the moments when they are soaring. Women’s heads are wrapped tightly with scarves, and they can’t take facial expressions at all. I guess they are tanning. The little girl in the town did not have a scarf on her face, her face was really dark, but she looked very cute! I distributed a pound of candy I bought to the local children, and one by one stretched out the little black hands to ask me for the candy. I was very proud and happy to watch them chewing the candy I bought in their little mouths. I took a lot of pictures of them. There are many tents set up in the town, and there are many dazzling products in them. It is said that they are Danba Tibetans from Sichuan, who specialize in business. The women are all dressed up very beautifully, especially their headwear is decorated with a lot of colorful accessories, and the braids are also very long, thick and very dark. We visited the families of the richest Tibetan compatriots in the area. Their family owned several shops, and the host seemed to be someone who had met the world. He was a soldier and spoke Mandarin very well. His home is very large, spacious and bright. The room is full of Tibetan furniture, which seems to be one of the richest families in the area. In the evening, the Tibetan driver King Ali invited us to eat raw beef. He went to the village and bought a catty and a half of red raw beef. He personally cooked and cut it into pieces. After peeling the garlic, he told us that it would be raw beef together. Eat, and tell us: This raw beef was not killed today, it was killed yesterday, so it is soulless beef. Hearing these words, I laughed to death. It turns out that Tibetan compatriots are still very particular about eating meat, and they can still have something to do with religion. Many people are afraid to eat the bloody beef. King Ali ate it on his own regardless of the three-seven-two-one. I thought to myself that since I came, I might as well give it a try. I ate three pieces of raw beef and felt that the original raw beef tastes very delicious. Tibetan driver Ali Wang Talking about the Tibetan driver Ali Wang King Ali (nickname) is a legendary figure. He is in his forties and looks very burly, with a typical image of a Tibetan man. I feel that his way of thinking has the way of thinking of Han people. Because he is extremely religious. In many ways, he strictly enforced it in accordance with the patriarchal concept. For example, he doesn’t drink alcohol and never gambling. When he ate the livestock, he could not eat the slaughtered that day, saying that there was a soul attached to the livestock, and he had to eat the next day. When he picked up a piece of chicken and put it to his mouth, he immediately asked the cook when it was killed. This behavior amused us. He once went on foot to Nepal and India to pass through and pay homage to the Buddha. He still has a lot of personal experiences that are very bumpy, so I can’t talk about it here. I feel that he shouldn’t be a driver at all, but that he should be an entrepreneur and a leader. Especially his eyes are amazing. As long as you ask him on many questions, he will answer you very carefully. My friends and I joked that King Ali was like a party secretary, and his speech was particularly straightforward. King Ali is not only a driver, but also owns three Japanese-style off-road vehicles, one of which he drives by himself and the other for rent. He is also a bargaining businessman who is cunning and humorous, intelligent and open-minded. However, in the following years, I saw a travel note written by a traveler on the Internet saying that King Ali had died of cancer. After seeing this news, King Ali’s voice and smile suddenly appeared in my mind, which made me feel good. It’s been too slow for a while. Payang Town is a small town with a special Tibetan style, where you can really feel how Tibetan compatriots live and entertain. I also took a lot of satisfactory photos, which added a lot of fun to my trip.

There are many cities in China, because they are not well developed and have no characteristics of their own, so their popularity is not high, so there are not many people who know here. What’s more, the county seat in the country is like a drop in the ocean? Yes, there are not many counties that can be known in the thousands of counties in our country, and even some counties have little sense of existence in their own provinces or even in their cities. However, there is a county in Anhui Province. It is said that the counterattack was quite successful. After a down-to-earth effort from a forgotten mountain township in southern Anhui, although the process of hard work was arduous, the counterattack succeeded in the end and became a famous “hometown of longevity” and “good health preservation”. Juxian” is also internationally recognized as “the most beautiful mountain village in China’s original ecology”. It is located in Shitai County, Chizhou City, Anhui Province. The reason why Shitai County is forgotten is not because its scenery is not beautiful enough and its history is not long enough, but because it was isolated from the world for a long time in history. Because of the underdevelopment of transportation, it is almost There is no outside information, all because of its geographic location. Because the land is located between Huangshan, one of the four most famous Buddhist mountains in China, which is the “No. 1 Wonderful Mountain in the World”, and Jiuhua Mountain, one of the four famous Buddhist mountains in China, the territory is dominated by mountains, with few arable land and no convenient transportation. In the state of isolation, few people arrive here, so that for a long time Shitai County was in a state of being forgotten. Although it is located between Huangshan Mountain, which is famous at home and abroad for its “exotic pines, strange rocks, sea of ​​clouds, hot springs, and winter snow”, and Jiuhua Mountain, one of the four famous Buddhist mountains in China, which is known as the “first mountain in the southeast”. Few people have arrived in history and are in a forgotten state, but Shitai County is also fortunate. It is precisely because the land is located between two mountains. The original ecology that is not here has not been destroyed by modernization, and it still retains the most primitive ecology. The environment here not only has a profound historical and cultural heritage, but also has the most primitive original ecology. The beautiful scenery is like a fairyland forgotten in the world. “The fairy of poetry” Li Bai has traveled here five times and left a well-known masterpiece. Seventeen Poems of Qiupu River. Shitai County, formerly known as Shidai County, is located in Chizhou City, Anhui Province. Due to its geographical location, the transportation is inconvenient, which has also caused its economic development to lag behind. It is almost in the bottom of the province, but Shitai The county has not given up its own advantages, and has developed step by step, which is a successful counterattack. It has become an ecological green city famous for “famous mountains, beautiful waters, selenium-rich land, and good air” in Anhui Province, and has become the first choice for health and wellness. place. Although Shitai County is dominated by mountains and has a small area of ​​arable land, it has a primitive ecology and the only area of ​​arable land is rich in “selenium”. We also all know that selenium is one of the 15 essential nutrients for the human body. It is a very important trace element for our health, and it is also an indispensable trace element. The selenium resources contained in the soil of Shitai County are quite rich. It is one of the three famous selenium-rich places in China. It is not only “the most beautiful mountain village in China”, but also the “hometown of longevity”. The area of ​​Shitai County is not large, and the area of ​​arable land is not much. In addition to the inconvenient transportation, the economic development is relatively lagging, and it has been at the bottom of the province for a long time. However, Shitai County is not in a hurry to develop industry. Instead, it develops its own advantages step by step and seizes the opportunity, because people living here know that although the mountains isolate here from the world, the Qiupu River flows here. The beautiful water and the green ecology of West Huangshan Mountain are the best resources here. The beautiful mountains and clear waters and dense forests have become the best sign of Shitai County. The development of eco-tourism has also become the best road in Shitai County. There are 7 national 4A-level tourist attractions, including Guniujiang, Qiupu River, Penglai Fairy Cave, Strange Lake, Zuishanye, Xianyu Mountain, and Yulong Cave. The original ecology, its beauty has long been hidden, it is veritable “China’s most beautiful ecological leisure tourism county.” Because of this, Shitai County has succeeded in the counterattack because of this newcomer. From a forgotten state, it has become a livable resort that countless people yearn for.

In the past two years, “Xi’an Night View” has been frequently searched. Especially the night scenes of the scenic spots in the Great Tang Dynasty City and Big Wild Goose Pagoda Square have transformed the ancient capital of Xi’an into Chang’an, the prosperous Tang Dynasty, attracting many tourists to check in. I have seen the night view of Xi’an, but I did not expect that I went to the small county town of Qinling and was still amazed by the night view here. Among the many small cities in the Qinling Mountains that I have walked through, this place should be the place with the most beautiful night view. I wonder if you have been there yet? It is – Fengxian. Fengxian, known as Fengzhou in ancient times, is located in the hinterland of the Qinling Mountains and at the source of the Jialing River. It is a place named after the Phoenix. Although Fengxian belongs to the Guanzhong city of Baoji, it is located at the southern foot of the Qinling Mountains and already belongs to the south in the geographical sense. In history, Zhongfeng County is the only place from Chang’an to Bashu. The old road, Lianyun, and Baoxie all pass through here, because it also left many cultural monuments. Coupled with the unique natural resources, tourism development is still doing well. A few years ago, I heard that the night view of Fengxian County is very beautiful. This time I came here in person and found that it is indeed worthy of praise. Like many Qinling county towns, the area of ​​Fengxian county town is not large. The county seat is located in a valley surrounded by mountains, the Jialing River flows through the middle, and residential buildings are built along both banks of the Jialing River. That is to use this section of the Jialing River that flows through the county seat, Fengxian built the 4A scenic spot Phoenix Lake. The best time to appreciate Phoenix Lake is at night. There is a large-scale waterscape, light and music show on the lake. The houses and bridges on both sides of the lake and the Qinling Mountains are also decorated with gorgeous lights. The overall combination is very beautiful. The above picture shows the Starlight Waterfall and the artificial moon. A 1 million square meter star waterfall is arranged on one of the peaks of the Qinling Mountains (data from the official introduction, haha), and there is also a round of “artificial moon”. At night, the sky is full of stars, and the scene is still very beautiful. The weather was good when we went, so there were two moons, which looked a bit buggy. However, the artificial moon is capable of moving. According to the change of cloudy and sunny, from the crescent to the full moon, the creativity is quite good. The picture below is a large fountain, which is said to be 184 meters high, once the highest in Asia (it has now been surpassed). I shot it when it was the highest. After dinner, we felt very comfortable when we strolled along the banks of Phoenix Lake. The spring breeze came with a little moisture, and the dazzling lights on both sides of the strait could not help but take out the camera to take pictures. When we came, the local villager in Fengxian told us that because the Jialing River was in high water, the waterscape music and light show was not sure whether it would be performed. We strolled around the county town, took a look at the 184-meter high spray, and found that there was no follow-up performance, so we went back to the hotel. I thought I was sorry to miss it, but I didn’t expect that at 9pm, the performance would start as usual. And we live next to Phoenix Lake, and the hotel just happened to be able to see the scene of the performance, so we took a small bench and sat in the hotel to watch the entire water curtain show. The effect is really amazing! There is a sculpture of a phoenix spreading its wings on the water of Phoenix Lake. From the sculpture to the covered bridge at the back, it becomes the core area of ​​the entire water curtain show. With the music, the water surface changes into different colors of phoenix, which fits perfectly with the theme of “Colorful Feng County”. After the light show, the fountain started, and the entire lake surface would finally spray up, swinging with the music, and the scene was quite shocking. Among the many counties in the Qinling Mountains, Fengxian’s tourism development started relatively early. The slogan at that time was “The Most Beautiful Small Town in Qinling”, of course “the most” is not easy to say, but the night view of this county town is still quite beautiful. Visiting the surrounding attractions during the day, and seeing a stunning light show at night when you return to the county town, it feels quite comfortable. If you have the opportunity to come to Fengxian County, it is recommended to live in a homestay next to Phoenix Lake, find a room with a lake view, and lie down in the house to see the panoramic view. The experience is super good. If you want to learn more about popular and fun tourist destinations, you are welcome to pay attention to “Xiaoyu’s Travel Diary”.

Many people can’t remember (don’t know) that the famous Wuzhen and Xitang are actually under the jurisdiction of Jiaxing. There is a Yuehe ancient block in Jiaxing City, which is even less known to tourists. In fact, after visiting Wuzhen and Xitang, you will find that Yuehe Ancient Street is actually a mini version of those two ancient towns, and if you don’t like crowds, Yuehe Ancient Street sometimes feels better. a little. I have seen the old photos before the restoration of the ancient street. It is indeed a bit dilapidated, but the background of the once lively and prosperous is still there. With these family backgrounds, the old Yuehe River will look a little bit old. It is said that the former Yuehe District was a lively commercial district in old Jiaxing. There were sixty to seventy alleys (li lanes), and the streets were all named according to their commercial nature. However, the current Moon River is not so large, with more than a dozen bridges and a few streets, and there is no need to remember the name. It can be seen that the restoration of Yuehe still preserves the original appearance of the ancient street as much as possible. The towering and scattered fire walls, wooden rows of doors, carved lattice windows, occasional beauties appearing in the corridors, and bridges across the Moon River, outline the entire Yuehe ancient block into an ink painting. . The gray-green moss on the white paper bars on the gray wall makes this painting antique. It is not a holiday or a weekend in the daytime. There are very few people in Yuehe Ancient Street, so you can take pictures with the concave shape and watch the flowing water of the small bridge at will. The white-walled houses of Daiwa are reflected in the water. The waterway of Yuehe Ancient Street is very narrow, so there are no cruise ships. It seems that awning boats are just decorations in the Yuehe River. In the morning, Yuehe Ancient Street is very quiet. Some of the shops on the street have not yet opened their doors, and there are few customers who open the doors. They are so quiet that you can even hear the birds, and the conversation between who and who in the alley next door. During the day, the ancient street is the busiest only the square facing the Heyue Bridge and the streets on both sides. Various snacks, drinks, restaurants, and even Starbucks are all here. If you want to be quiet, just walk in again, and you will surely find unexpected surprises. The night and day of Moon River are two worlds. The day is light and elegant, and the night is full of colors. The most lively place is Tan Nong, a street music bar for you to choose from, and almost every house has live performances. No matter how many guests are in the bar, the music is loud and noisy. Only in this way can the adrenaline of young people soar. In Yuehe Ancient Street, I really didn’t understand the darkness of night during the day. When you arrive in Jiaxing, you have to eat zongzi. There is a zongzi museum on Yuehe Ancient Street. You can smell the scent of zongzi as soon as you enter, because the museum has rice dumplings and steamed zongzi on the spot. Come here to learn about the past and present of Zongzi in Jiaxing, and you can buy a few as gifts. I especially recommend two places with unique Jiaxing characteristics, where you can also see the taste of Jiaxing and hear the tunes of Jiaxing. Entering the block from Heyue Bridge, you can walk into the Piggy Corridor to the left (it used to be a place where pigs were bought and sold). In the morning, under the long corridor, there are always many local elderly people sitting by the river, drinking tea and chatting. , You can sit down and chat with them if you want; Another place is the Xiqu pavilion on the corner of the ancient street. Enter the block from the entrance of Jianguo North Road, turn right and you will see the Yuehe Opera Pavilion. There are always fans who love opera playing the violin and singing songs here. Although they don’t understand, such tunes and pictures are the moon. The way the river used to be. Recommended restaurant: Zou Daxian, remember to look at the building in the garden Recommended accommodation: Yuehe Inn, which itself is also part of the scenic spot Recommended teahouse: any one under the Little Pig Gallery Recommended bar: Squirrel Bar (Almost every family has a scene, I have only been to this one) The back garden of Zou Daxian Restaurant. The Yuehe Ancient Street District, in fact, seems to be a reduced version of Wuzhen and Xitang. Compared with the crowded and noisy Xitang of Wuzhen, it is more quiet and quiet as an ancient town in the south of the Yangtze River.

The Guyan Painting Township is located in Bihu Town and Dagangtou Town, Liandu District, Lishui City, Zhejiang Province. It is only 20 kilometers away from the downtown area of ​​Lishui. It consists of two parts, the “Guyan” and the “Painting Township” on both sides of Daxi. We know that Lishui is the prefecture-level city with the largest land area in Zhejiang Province. It is known as the “No. 1 City in the National Ecological Environment” and is known as the “Zhejiang Green Valley”. As the cultural epitome of ecology and humanity in Lishui, Guyan Painting Town, this ancient town can be said to be beautiful and wonderful. It is a typical representative of the Jiangnan water town. It has the most magnificent scenery of the eight hundred miles of Ou River. It attracts every year. A large number of art lovers come here to sketch and create. Nowadays, Guyan Painting Village has become a well-known art hometown in China, and it is a base for art sketching, artistic creation, oil painting production and photography creation. How can you miss the glorious and heroic beauty of Tongjiyan when you come to Guyan Painting Village. It was built in the Southern Dynasties and is one of the five major water conservancy irrigation projects in ancient my country. It has a history of more than 1,500 years. It is composed of arched dams, Tongji sluices, stone letters, leaf caves, channels, pole sluices, lake ponds, etc. Part of the composition is a bamboo-like water conservancy irrigation system that focuses on attracting the public and taking into account the storage and drainage. It is the first batch of selected World Irrigation Project Heritage in China and the only World Irrigation Project Heritage in Zhejiang Province. It was even selected a few years earlier than the famous Zheng Guoqu and Dujiangyan. The entire water conservancy project has set two “world’s best”, namely, the world’s earliest arched dam and the world’s earliest overpass. Together with related ancient roads, inscriptions, buildings, etc., they are both precious and important cultural relics. Study precious materials of ancient water conservancy projects in my country. Since we talked about Tongji Weir, Yantou Village, a thousand-year-old village built around the weir, naturally has to be mentioned. It is named after the weir and is the core area of ​​the ancient weir painting village landscape. Not only is the historical environment long and unique, but the natural scenery is also extremely beautiful. The neatly arranged courtyard courtyard and the exquisitely carved horse head wall show an antique charm against the backdrop of the towering ancient weir. It is one of the birthplaces of the famous “Barbizon Oil Painting” and the creative base of the hometown of Chinese photography. Dagangtou Village, the “land of painting” across the river, has small bridges and flowing water, stone alleys, ancient houses and ancient streets, as well as Pinghu Qiuyue, Lanyan Misty, and Lonely Fishing Boat. The ancient camphor tree of thousands of years old, lush and luxuriant, witnessed the long history of the ancient village, the century-old streets full of fireworks, gentle and poetic, isolated from the chaos and hustle and bustle. There is no extreme prosperity here, only the drunk years and the intoxicating warm wind. Wandering between the ancient villages, whether it is the scene or the painter, it is the most beautiful scenery in the ancient town.

“You take the college entrance examination well. After you get to Beijing, we will buy a detached house in Beijing’s fourth ring road.” Xie Ke, who went for a self-driving trip in Ordos during May 1st, heard his father at the next table talking while eating at the Kangbashi food court. After the son’s college entrance examination encouragement promised, he instantly felt that the lamb chops in his hand were not delicious.

Xie Ke had long heard that Ordos belongs to the rich inland city, but after witnessing it on the spot, she still opened her eyes. “Poverty limits my imagination.” Xie Ke sighed.

Being rich is the most direct consensus of outsiders on Ordos. Speaking of Ordos, it is a cashmere sweater, coal, and a rich man. The latter two can be equated in the greetings of strangers, just like when you mention Shanxi, you will think of coal bosses. If we want to talk about the difference between the two resource-based cities, it is the difference in the degree of resource sharing. In Shanxi, coal owners use coal resources to accumulate wealth, while Ordos makes a group of ordinary people become wealthy.

The story circulated together with the locals becoming rich is that the locals bought luxury houses and luxury cars. At that time, two villages were called “Land Rover Village” and “Overbearing Village”. After the compensation, it was named after the purchase of Land Rover and overbearing vehicles. This has also become synonymous with Ordos for a long time, and it has made a strong mark in the history of Ordos’ development.

Even now, the rich background of Ordos has not faded. According to data released by the Ordos Statistics Bureau, in 2020, the city’s GDP will be 353.366 billion yuan, ranking first in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region’s GDP for three consecutive years. Its fiscal revenue is 46.49 billion yuan. This data is 21.71 billion yuan in the provincial capital of Hohhot.

The direct manifestation of the ample government finances is Ordos’s dedication to urban construction. People who have been to Ordos, especially Kangbashi, can feel that the government is very rich. “The greening of Kangbashi makes me feel like I am in a southern city.” Xie Ke told Ran Caijing. Kangbashi’s construction goal is a “national forest city”, which creates a huge contrast in the Kubuqi Desert, where the soil is dominated by sand, and the cost of greening has increased exponentially. However, Ordos still spares no expense in investing heavily, which shows the government’s generous style. .

Another example is that Erdos announced in January this year that women aged 13-18 years old with household registration in the city will be vaccinated for cervical cancer free of charge. This became the first in the country, which attracted applause and cheers from netizens, and once again lamented the government’s generous financial expenditure. . This is one of the few hot search topics in Ordos in the past six months. Most of the other time, the topicality is very weak, and the volume is not high. Some people commented: “Mutely make a fortune.”

A piece of data may confirm that in 2020, Ordos’ per capita GDP is 169,300 yuan, ranking 7th among the top 20 cities with per capita GDP. Correspondingly, the local wage level is also very high. According to the official response, the average salary in Ordos in 2019 was 8,177 yuan, and the average salary in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region that year was 5688 yuan.

Driven by the coal mine economy, the overall average wages in the local area have continued to rise, and the level of consumption has risen simultaneously. Wang Lin, who has worked in Ordos for more than 10 years, told Ran Caijing that the annual after-tax salary of local coal mine employees is between 150,000 and 200,000 yuan, which is the highest salary in the surrounding coal mine area. According to the GQ Lab article “People in Tier 2-18 Cities Don’t Understand Internal Volumes”, a couple from Ordos earns more than 8,000 yuan a month. They often go to Beijing to “get together” with friends. Beijing is a weekend for them. Feel free to go shopping in the city.

Although Ordos is a fourth-tier inland city, its consumption is comparable to that of Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou. Wang Lin told Ran Caijing that the price of popular movies for the Spring Festival in 2021 at the local Wanda Cinemas is not less than 65 yuan, but the ticket price of Baotou Wanda Cinemas at the same time period is about 30 yuan. Even so, “Hello, Li Huanying” “Detective Chinatown 3” is also full.

Keeping the same level as movie tickets, there are also local housing prices, especially in the new district of Kangbashi. According to Anjuke data, the average price of Kangbashi in May 2021 is 12,800 yuan/square meter, and the housing price in the core area is higher. In 2016, Wang Lin saw a house in the city center, 6000 yuan/square meter, and it has now risen to 1.5 Ten thousand yuan/square meter.

In 2013, the housing prices in Dongsheng District and Kangbashi District of Ordos were still hovering between 3,000-4,000 yuan per square meter. Due to the real estate bubble in 2011, housing prices fell precipitously, but they did not improve in the following years. Big. “House prices have risen since 2016.” Local native Sun Miao told Ran Caijing.

Today’s housing prices are not the highest point in Ordos. Around 2011, Kangbashi housing prices were as high as 20,000 yuan per square meter, but later stories tell us that this is a bubble floating in the air.

Outsiders in Ordos

Wang Lin, who came to Ordos from Shanxi, still regrets not buying the house in Kangbashi District.

The house is located in a very good location, near the Ordos City Government Building. It has a 120-square-meter first floor with a garden. The price at that time was 6000 yuan/square meter. Because the owner urgently needed money, paying the full amount could be 120,000 yuan cheaper. But at that time, Wang Lin couldn’t even put out 100,000 yuan in his hand. In the end, he could only choose to rent a two-bedroom and one-living house in Kangbashi District, without furniture, for 23,000 yuan a year.

A year later, Wang Lin barely made up the down payment and bought a second-hand house with a loan of 500,000 yuan in Dongsheng District. Wang Lin’s idea is to save enough money in the future and then go back to Kangbashi to buy a real estate.

What Wang Lin didn’t expect was that in the next three years, his speed of saving the down payment could not keep up with the increase in Kangbashi’s house price, and the colleague who bought the house in the first place, the property has now doubled.

Compared with Dongsheng, Wang Lin prefers Kangbashi, with new infrastructure and good environment. More importantly, Wang Lin’s company is in Yijinhuoluo Qi, and it is only separated from Kangbashi by a bridge. The one-way commute time does not exceed 15 minutes, while Dongsheng District is 30 kilometers away. Although the built Dongkang Expressway can be reached in about 20 minutes during the low peak period, Wang Lin who commutes to get off work can not experience this kind of joy.

The same is true for Wang Lin’s mother. When she first moved to Dongsheng District, it was difficult for her to adapt. “The roads are narrower, there are more people, there are fewer fitness equipment, the buildings have a sense of age, and the greening rate is not as high as Kangbashi.”

When they were in Kangbashi, the house they rented was very close to Genghis Khan Square. After dinner every night, Wang Lin’s parents would take their grandchildren to the square to play and walk, to see the declared “Asia’s tallest” fountain, Genghis Khan Sculpture Square and Ulan Mulun Lake. “It’s more comfortable than my hometown.” It’s their evaluation of Kangbashi. There are many parks in Kangbashi. The official publicity is that there is a green belt of 300 meters and a park of 500 meters. There are many pavilions built on the half-hill slope. Wang Lin’s parents like to go there for relaxation.

“This is a clean city with few people. The musical fountains, theaters, museums and other buildings are all magnificent. The night view is radiant, but the prices are a bit high, but fortunately the wages are not low. It is cool in summer, but it will be harder in winter. The average temperature of minus 20 degrees is still not suitable.” Han Xiao, a native of Shiyan, Hubei, told Ran Caijing. After graduating from Inner Mongolia University in 2017, she was admitted as a civil servant in Ordos. The first year’s pre-tax salary was more than 7,000 yuan. The treatment made her choose to settle in this city, quiet, vast, and slow pace of life, she felt comfortable.

As a new district, Kangbashi is obviously more brilliant. At present, municipal party and government agencies and municipal administrative institutions are all located in Kangbashi. Ordos No. 1 Middle School, which ranks second in Inner Mongolia, has also moved to Kangbashi. The airport and Ordos Station are both Located around Kangbashi, the urban commercial, education, medical and other infrastructure resources are also accelerating construction. Yijinhuoluo Qi, which is separated by a bridge from Kangbashi, has stationed a group of energy companies such as China Coal and Shendong Tianlong. Civil service communities have also been built in the surrounding area. The Dongkang Expressway that has been built connects Dongsheng and Kangbashi. The distance of nearly 30 kilometers can be reached in 20 minutes without traffic jams. Kangbashi is undoubtedly the first choice for the population of Ordos. Ground.

A large number of uniquely shaped landmark buildings, artificial lakes dug in the sand, and parks with a coverage rate of more than 40%, which were originally considered by outsiders to be “good fortune” under economic development, now constitute Kangbashi The difference from Dongsheng and even the surrounding areas has become an element that local residents are proud of.

However, the style of Dongsheng in the old district has not faded. Compared with Kangbashi, Dongsheng district is more pyrotechnic. “Most people go to school and work in Kangbashi. Many people will return to Dongsheng on a day off. They have more relatives and friends and they are more accustomed to life.” Dongsheng and Kangbashi’s local humanities and philosophy confronted each other. Caijing said.

In addition to its popularity, Dongsheng’s prices are also more down-to-earth. Wang Lin’s mother, who frequents supermarkets and vegetable markets, told Ran Caijing that the overall fresh and packaged food in Dongsheng Supermarket is cheaper than Kangbashi. Sun Miao said that Kangbashi’s consumption cost is at least 15% higher than Dongsheng. Wang Lin paid 200 yuan to fill a tooth for his child some time ago. It is also a public hospital, and the colleague’s child needs 500 yuan to fill a tooth in Kangbashi.

This is the difference between Kangbashi and Dongsheng. The same thing is that the city’s public security is doing very well. In media reports, it is exaggerated that a mobile phone is stolen by the police and the police will chase it back. Yang Bing, a Hohhot native who once worked for Inner Mongolia Daily, recalled that when he went to Kangbashi in 2009, the car would not be locked and would not be lost. Wang Lin’s colleague was fined 5 yuan by the traffic police for running a red light. “Ordos cars will be courteous to pedestrians, and so are taxis.” Wang Lin’s mother observed a very interesting phenomenon. Among her partners who danced in the square, many Everyone wears valuable jewelry, “It’s not common in my hometown, and it’s a tacit consensus that we don’t reveal our wealth.”

This city has demonstrated its enthusiasm, tolerance and human touch to foreigners like Wang Lin. Wang Lin said that more than half of their units are foreigners, and most of them choose to buy and settle in Ordos.

But there were also people who left, Yang Bing was one of them. Working in a newspaper, he loves writing and art. After working in Ordos for two years in 2009, he chose to leave. “Ordos is not rich in culture.” He told Ran Caijing the reason for leaving. However, he did not return to Hohhot, but went to China. The cultural center of Beijing-Beijing.

City of Coal

Wang Lin, who graduated with a major in coal mining technology, did not have the same feelings as Yang Bing. He only wanted to find a professional counterpart to make money. Hearing that Ordos had opened many new mines and the demand for recruitment was high, Wang Lin went there.

Wang Lin set foot on this dry land for the first time in 2009. In this year, the coal production of Inner Mongolia surpassed Shanxi to take the top spot for the first time. Although Shanxi is also a major coal province, the pattern of Shanxi’s coal industry was basically fixed at that time, and Shanxi Coal Mining Groups were mostly state-owned enterprises. In contrast, Ordos was in the early stage of coal economic development, with many new coal mines and high labor demand. The threshold is relatively low.

Wang Lin entered Yihua Mining under this opportunity, starting from a coal engineering quality inspector. According to Wang Lin, the initial salary was only about 4,000 yuan a month. Soon, Wang Lin’s salary doubled because Yihua Mining’s parent company Boyuan Group and China Coal Group signed a capital increase and share expansion agreement to reorganize and integrate Yihua Mining. After the reorganization, China Coal Group, which holds 51% of its shares As the holding company of Yihua Mining, China Coal Group, which has stronger financial strength, can obviously give employees better benefits.

In the past, similar cases of mergers and reorganizations of small and medium-sized coal mining companies by energy groups with larger volumes have been taking place. According to the “Economic Observer” report, around 2000, the number of coal mines in Ordos reached more than 900, of which more than 95% were small coal mines with an annual output of less than 90,000 tons. In 2004, the government strongly closed a number of coal mines. Spontaneous mergers and reorganizations have been continuing. From this time on, a group of strong private energy groups in Ordos, such as Yitai, Huineng, Manshi and other private coal mines, have rapidly grown into large groups with an output value of 10 billion yuan.

Among the influx of foreigners, Wang Lin belongs to the lucky group. In 2011, the coal market took a turn for the worse, and small coals with a thin family background were poorly able to resist risks. Many small coal mines in Ordos fell into a dilemma of suspension of production. Unemployed workers left the land that once gave them imagination, and the coal mines in Ordos entered the era of large-scale.

Coal mine integration is the only way to scale and reduce the development of coal economy. The degree of mechanization of small and medium coal mines is relatively low, and the production cost per unit output is higher than that of large coal mines. The integration of small and medium coal mines can reduce mining costs, increase unit output, and increase output. It means creating more revenue, and the Ordos government and local coal mining companies are very clear about this.

As one of the four pillars of the local economy, coal is a barometer of the local economy. Wang Lin, who works in a coal group, has a more obvious perception of the coal market. He told Ran Caijing that from 2009 to 2012, the coal economy entered a period of weakness after three years of upward development. From 2012 to 2016, it entered a period of adjustment and recovery. The company began to vigorously promote the transformation of coal resources and began to deploy coal. In the chemical industry, the development from pure coal mining to the direction of extending the coal industry chain and increasing the added value of coal, reducing dependence on coal, is the most profound lesson the economic bubble has brought to Ordos.

At the same time, the government has also begun to make efforts in high-tech industries and processing and manufacturing industries. In 2014, Daruixiang Optoelectronics Technology Co., Ltd., which deals in sapphire crystal materials, landed in Ordos, and the first phase of the project was put into operation a year later. According to Xinhua News Agency, in 2015, the first phase of BOE reached full production, and the second phase of the project is being completed; Chery Automobile’s annual production capacity was 300,000 cars, and Huatai, Chery, ZTE special vehicles and other projects were put into production, gathering more than 30 supporting manufacturers .

Some of the emerging industry clusters have actually planned for a long time. The equipment manufacturing base is planned to be built in 2007, the airport logistics park was established in 2009, and the high-tech industrial park was approved in 2011. In order to attract large groups to settle in, Ordos introduced a coal allocation policy in 2009: every 2 billion yuan of fixed asset investment in equipment manufacturing projects and high-tech projects can allocate 100 million tons of coal.

BOE and Chery are the companies that took advantage of local policies to land in Ordos. It is reported that BOE, which plans to invest 22 billion yuan, has obtained the mining right of not less than 1 billion tons of coal resources granted by the local government. Investing in coal is obviously very attractive to companies, but Ordos has also been involved in disputes.

Sun Miao told Ran Caijing that there are some companies that will invest in coal to enter Ordos, but in reality, “the drunkard does not mean to drink.” However, most of the companies that have settled in Ordos have fairly good production benefits. BOE and Chery are currently operating at full capacity. Especially after 2011, the government began to exert efforts in emerging industries. Since then, the enterprises stationed in it have been operating normally, and the single coal industry structure is being restructured.

At the same time, consumption has gradually returned to normal. Wang Lin told Ran Caijing that there are no longer high-priced hotels with no vacancies everywhere, and restaurant prices have begun to fall, “like returning from illusion to reality.” Wang Lin sighed. In the five years after the bubble, Ordos was back on track after stalling and derailing.

The torn “ghost town” label

For a long time, Ordos has been labelled as a “ghost town”, which has left many people with a stereotype that is hard to eliminate until now.

“This is actually a misunderstanding. What is called the’ghost city’ is the newly developed Kangbashi district in Ordos at the time.” Local native Sun Miao told Ran Caijing. This misunderstanding originated from a report published in April 2010 by the American “Time” magazine. Because “Standing on the streets of Kangbashi, Ordos, a pedestrian and a car cannot be seen for 15 minutes”, the title is “Ordos, China.” The report of “A Modern Ghost Town” made Ordos become synonymous with “ghost town” for a long time.

But Dongsheng District, the main city of Ordos, was not like that at the time. According to the summary data of the sixth census released by the National Bureau of Statistics, at 0:00 on November 1, 2010, the permanent population of Dongsheng District was 580,000, accounting for 30% of the permanent population of Ordos City, and 25% from the fifth census. Compared with the data of 10,000 people, the average annual growth rate is 8.72%, which is higher than the average annual growth rate of 3.35% in Ordos.

Although a population of 580,000 appears to be a bit sparsely populated on an area of ​​2,160 square kilometers, this city is not connected with the “ghost town”. On the contrary, beginning in 2010, Ordos has entered the fast lane of economic growth and has developed a lot of momentum. According to data released by the National Bureau of Statistics, the GDP of Ordos in 2010 exceeded 250 billion yuan, reaching 264.32 billion yuan, an increase of 19.2% at comparable prices. , The city’s total local fiscal revenue reached 53.82 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 47.1%.

9 years back in time, these figures are far less than one-tenth of 2010. According to the data released by the National Bureau of Statistics, the GDP of Ordos in 2001 was 17.181 billion yuan, and its fiscal revenue was 1.798 billion yuan. At that time, Ordos had just withdrawn from the alliance and established a city. Urban residents were mainly distributed in the surrounding banners and counties, and the main source of income was still planting and animal husbandry. “Ordos City 2001 National Economic and Social Development Statistical Bulletin” also mentioned that the main problems that existed at that time were the weak foundation of agriculture and animal husbandry, the weak ability to resist natural disasters, the difficulty of increasing the income of farmers and herdsmen, the basic living security and reemployment of laid-off workers. The task is quite arduous.

Life was difficult, and it was also the real situation of most Ordos locals, including Sun Miao. Sun Miao recalled that before 2000, everyone relied on the sky for food. “Ordos suffered from nine droughts in ten years, lack of water resources, underdeveloped water conservancy, and mostly sandy land. Many crops were not suitable for planting. At that time, it suffered from severe drought for three consecutive years. The suburbs around Dongsheng were in this state until 2005. Basically, life in the village can’t go on.”

Therefore, Sun Miao and his family chose to move to Dongsheng District, which is more than 30 kilometers away. “You can work in Dongsheng. At that time, Dongsheng needed workers to build buildings. They did some physical work of pulling bricks and sand. The day is guaranteed.” When Sun Miao moved to Dongsheng District, there were only two streets in Dongsheng. “Outside the main street is the suburbs” Sun Miao joked that the people who migrated from surrounding counties like Sun Miao were all in the east. Sheng’s suburbs settled down, but this state did not last long. Soon, their suburbs were expanded into urban areas.

After the withdrawal of the alliance and the establishment of a city, the Shenhua Group and other large coal mining enterprises successively settled in and began to build mines. After the degree of mechanization became higher, coal production increased rapidly, providing a large number of jobs. Before that, local people were more resistant to going to work in coal mines. “At that time, the safety factor of coal mines was low, coal mine accidents occurred frequently, and work risks were high.” Sun Miao told Ran Caijing, but these hidden worries were relieved to a certain extent after large enterprises settled in. With alleviation and better treatment, it has gradually become the norm for local residents to go to work in coal mines, local private enterprises have also developed, the local economy has been boosted, and Ordos has begun to get rid of the burden of poverty.

Another landmark event is that since 2001, the price of coal began to soar. Public information shows that in 2001, the ex-factory price of raw coal increased by 6.9% year-on-year, in 2002 it rose by 13.2%, and in 2003 it rose by 3.9%. According to “Sanlian Life Weekly”, in 2004, with the rise of a new round of large-scale investment and construction across the country, coal prices rose rapidly. The pit price rose from 40 yuan per ton to 100 yuan and then rose to 200 yuan again. For Ordos, which has 1/6 of the country’s proven coal reserves, it is an unprecedented development opportunity. The geological conditions of coal resources everywhere have also become the source of the rocket’s economic growth in Ordos.

This can be seen from the national economic and social development of Ordos at that time. The coal economy has a certain lag. The coal price that rose in 2004 was not reflected in the economic development data of Ordos until 2005, when Ordos GDP exceeded 50 billion yuan. , Reached 55.01 billion yuan, local fiscal revenue reached 4.61 billion yuan, an increase of 86.5% year-on-year, and the contribution of the secondary industry, dominated by the coal economy, accounted for 61.1%. In the following years, the local GDP growth rate has remained above 19% , The growth rate of local fiscal revenue is even higher, between 30-55%. This is an economic leap, not a gradual progress.

The later story has long been heard. When coal resources are upgraded from ordinary minerals to “black gold”, coal companies and coal bosses from all over the country are attracted to mine for gold like a magnet. Coal companies open mines and requisition land, and the government expands the city. Demolition, the increasing value of coal at the feet of the locals has become a direct route for them to become rich. Residents who have been demolished or requisitioned have received hundreds of thousands or even millions of compensation fees, and their wealth has gathered and exploded among the people.

During this period, many blessing myths spread, “People who became rich began to buy luxury cars. In some villages, every household bought overbearing and Land Rover. They were also known as’Overbearing Village’ and’Land Rover Village’. At that time, the Land Rover in Ordos was better than the locals. There are many taxis.” Another local, Gao Yuxing, recalled the grand occasion.

People with primitive wealth did not invest funds in industry, but chose to invest in private loans and real estate with a higher rate of return on capital. According to data from the Ordos Bureau of Statistics, in 2007, private investment was 50.34 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 36.8%, accounting for 58.4% of total fixed investment. In the following four years, the growth rate of private investment has remained at a high level of more than 20%, accounting for fixed investment. more than half.

“At that time, there was a maximum of 3 cents for borrowing, and more than 90% of people invested money in it. They dreamed of embarking on a way of getting rich from money. Normal families with not much’surplus food’ are also participating in this game.” Sun Miao told Burning Finance.

Ordos, where hot money is surging and the people are lending, instantly became one of the most active cities for private lending, and the atmosphere of speculation and gold rush is permeated from enterprises to the public. Tianjin Gaohe Equity Investment summarizes this process in the “China Private Capital Investment Research Report-Ordos”: the wealth distribution chain in Ordos maintains a kind of “internal circulation”, coal mines generate wealth, support the government to transform the city, and distribute through demolition. Give more people, and then gather funds through private loans to lend to real estate and new coal mines.

Real estate development funds from loans continue to push up local housing prices under the operation of this economic chain. The fastest soaring is in the Kangbashi New District. “The highest rise is 20,000 yuan per square meter, and the housing prices in Dongsheng District have also been brought up. It has doubled from 3000 yuan/square meter to about 7000 yuan/square meter.” Sun Miao told Ran Caijing.

It was not only the house price that was driven. Wang Lin recalled that in 2009, when his friends went to Dongsheng to find him, they could not find a hotel to stay. “There is no hotel with a price lower than 300 yuan/night. All hotels are basically fully occupied. , These hotels cost about 100 yuan a night.” Like hotels, the consumption of catering, supermarkets, shopping malls and other service industries remains high, and the cost of living is constantly being raised.

This is not caused by the law of market economy in short supply, but by the infinitely enlarged expectations. In this economic chain, the value of underground coal mines will eventually flow to the real estate above ground, realizing changes in the form of resources, but not driving more business positives. To prosperity.

There is no bubble economy that can safely transition to a stable period. This unfounded economic chain finally broke in 2011. At that time, the rising coal price due to economic structural adjustments, the growth rate of coal demand fell, and coal prices fell. After the reduction of hematopoietic function, this false prosperity relying on the coal economy will inevitably return to reality. After the coal economy is expected to fall, gold prospectors begin to withdraw. These gold prospectors are also financiers, and local people who participate in making money are locked in a tight loop. In the collapse of private lending.

“Our family is a typical example. Back then, they used an intermediary to lend 1.2 million yuan to a real estate developer. After the crash, the borrowers had no news.” Lin Xin told Ran Caijing that the example of their family was the majority of the people who participated in the game. In the final outcome, only a small number of people made money in this high-risk transaction.

After the bubble was burst, the economic data of Ordos declined accordingly. According to the Ordos City Statistics Bureau, the growth rate of local fiscal revenue across the country fell from 48% in 2011 to 3%. The sales area of ​​commercial housing fell by 18% year-on-year in 2011 and year-on-year in 2012. It fell to 47%, and residential sales fell 49.4% year-on-year.

Correspondingly, house prices have also started to decline. Zhang Chuan told Ran Cai that the house price of Daxing Oriental Garden Community where he currently lives was nearly 3,700 yuan per square meter in 2013, while the average house price in Dongsheng District in 2010 was 7,000 yuan per square meter. Around, “Almost cut back, but now it has risen back, and the current house price is 8,000 yuan/square meter.”

Transformation is restricted by high-end talents

There is a theory in economics called the “resource curse”, that is, regions with abundant natural resources will fall into the dilemma of excessive dependence on resources and a single industrial structure, and economic growth will eventually fall into a period of slow or even stagnation.

Obviously, Ordos can’t avoid this phenomenon. The coal economy has risen and fallen behind, and the number of resource-cursed city groups has increased by one more, and the outside world has been screaming bad things one after another.

Until now, no one dared to be sure that Ordos has stepped out of the resource curse, but you can see its continuous efforts in transformation.

It can be seen from the official website of the People’s Government of Ordos that Ordos has established 13 industrial parks, including high-tech industrial development zones, equipment manufacturing industrial parks, and Dongsheng Economic, Science and Education (Light Textile Industry). New industries will be cultivated in various fields of big new materials and big data. The coal economy is also transforming into a high value-added direction. “Several industrial parks with hundreds of billions of billions of value through the conversion of coal into natural gas, fertilizer, ethanol, etc. have been planned, and wind power manufacturing equipment is also being introduced in the near future.” Sun Miao told Ran Caijing.

From the data point of view, the industrial transformation has achieved certain results. The “Statistical Bulletin of National Economic and Social Development of Ordos City in 2020” shows that new momentum is growing steadily. In the whole year, among the industries above designated size, strategic emerging industrial enterprises accounted for 3.6% of the total output value of industries above designated size. The added value of high-tech industries increased by 5.5%, accounting for 0.7% of all regulated industries. The added value of the non-coal industry increased by 0.6% over the previous year, accounting for 32% of industries above designated size, and the green energy situation is improving.

However, it can also be seen that the output value of emerging industries still does not account for a high proportion of the industry, and the growth rate is also small. Yang Chenguang, the author of “Research on Promoting the Industrial Structure Transformation and Upgrading of Resource-Based Cities in Ordos”, believes that due to the late start of emerging industries, they have not formed a strong relationship with the original industrial foundation. The phenomenon of “gathering”, the degree of upstream and downstream integration is not enough, and it has not formed a significant cluster effect and advantage. It will take a certain period of growth to become a new driving force for economic development.

However, despite Ordos’ continuous efforts in emerging industries, coal is still the main player in promoting economic development. The coal group is still the largest local industry. The first choice for local or foreign employment is coal mining group, and chemical industry, IT and other directions. The high-end talents are still scarce.

In the introduction of talents, Ordos fell into an awkward situation. College students who return to Ordos generally seek stability. They choose to enter the system or state-owned enterprises or state-owned enterprises, just like Han Xiao, while high-educated talents who pursue their dreams often choose to go to Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou to work hard.

In order to break this situation, the local government adopts a high-paying recruitment method. One example is that the Ordos Second Affiliated School of Beijing Normal University, which recently recruited teachers, put forward generous conditions: Tsinghua University and Peking University graduates who successfully entered the job have a pre-tax annual salary of 600,000 yuan. , Postgraduates with a master’s degree or above provide a housing of 100 square meters or pay 250,000 yuan for resettlement, this is not an exception, most other schools in Ordos are also like this, providing housing or giving a resettlement fee of not less than 100,000 yuan has become the norm operating.

Just as Ordos used coal resources to replace emerging industries 10 years ago, the introduction of high-end talents with high salaries is the most direct, fast and effective strategy for Ordos, which is located inland and has a low degree of diversification in the industrial structure. Talents are the biggest driving force of the city, and talents promote the industry. Development, industry creates economic benefits, economy promotes urban upgrading, and then feeds back the lives of residents, and the city can operate in a healthy manner.

“The salary in Yijinhuoluo Banner is really high. A secretary in a coal mine earns more than 7,000 yuan a month. I can’t believe this is the level of a county town.” After seeing the recruitment information pushed by the coal mine, Zhou Luo, who was approaching graduation, delivered it quickly. Got a resume. In addition to coal mines, schools, hospitals, and emerging industries also need a large number of high-end talents. Ran Caijing noted that the most recent November 2020 announcement on the introduction of high-level talents recruited 203 high-end professionals, and the introduction of high-level talents and shortages of professionals has become a key strategy for Ordos.

Under the background of continuing to adjust the industrial structure and alleviate the unbalanced development of the economic structure, Ordos’ demand for high-level professionals will continue to increase. High-end talents are the source of power to promote industrial transformation and the healthy and steady development of the economy, as well as Ordos to reduce its dependence on coal. , Pathfinder who reshapes the path and image of urban development.

Ordos is trying to get rid of the impressions and labels left during the radical period. The key to getting rid of depends on high-end talents.

The ancient town of Nianbadu is located in Quzhou City, Zhejiang Province. Yes, that’s right! It is Quzhou, which has opened “Global Free Tour” for several consecutive years and is known as the “largest” city in Zhejiang. It is hidden in the deep mountains and valleys of Xianxialing Mountains. It is hailed by some experts and scholars as a “cultural enclave” and “a dream left in the mountains.” Different from the gentle and beautiful Jiangnan water town in our traditional impression, this ancient town has a dangerous terrain and sits at the junction of the three provinces of Fujian, Zhejiang and Jiangxi. It is difficult to defend, and the commercial port is prosperous. Historically, it has always been the place where soldiers were stationed in the past and the first town from Fujian to Zhejiang. “Nian Ba ​​Du”, just seeing this name gives people a feeling of being separated from the world. At the end of the Tang Dynasty more than a thousand years ago, the Huangchao uprising army attacked Fujian and opened up an ancient Xianxia road here, making the small town on the edge of this ancient road also recorded in history. In the Northern Song Dynasty, there were 44 capitals in southern Zhejiang, and the town ranked 28th, hence the name Nianbadu. Since the Xianxia Ancient Road was the only passage between Fujian and Zhejiang at that time, with the progress of history, it gradually changed from the original military route to the later business route, and the ancient town, as a transportation hub that must be passed on the way, gradually It has become the most prosperous commercial port on the border of the three provinces, and many people have migrated here with their families. As a result, the town now has 130 surnames and 9 dialects among the population of more than 10,000. It has become a unique “ancient town for ordinary people” and “dialect kingdom”. . Since the ancient town is located in Zhejiang, people can’t help but remind people of the scenery of the water village of “Hu Zang Yanpu, furniture painting boat”, which is actually true. The ancient town of Nianbadu, which was built in the Tang Dynasty and prospered in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, although the prosperity of the past is no longer there, it still retains the traditional style of the 19th century. The ancient houses of Ming and Qing dynasties with black tiles and blue walls built by the river are well-preserved and scattered, vaguely inlaid between the poetic and painting-like clear water and green mountains. When you walk into the ancient town, you will find that you are walking through an ancient architectural museum, with temples, pavilions, ancient bridges, and archways, which makes people feel that this piece of ancient building with exquisite layout, magnificent scale, unique style and exquisite craftsmanship is in front of you. Group and felt heartfelt admiration. Of course, due to the phenomenon of immigration in history, the various styles of folk customs handed down in the ancient town are also great attractions, such as “Lian Knife Meat”, “Carrying a Literal Ceremony”, Making Flower Lanterns, Walking on Stilts, etc., which have been passed down from generation to generation in the ancient town. The folk customs and customs reflect the ancient cultural customs of the ancient town. So for Nianbadu, as the most special ancient town in the south of the Yangtze River, with a population of more than 10,000 and more than 130 castes in 9 dialects, would you be willing to learn about it?

By page 163 , a group of 6 friends with 4 dogs, rented a land of 1,000 m2 for 20 years and renovated it into a dream farm where they lived together and developed business projects. The farm is located in the middle of the village, there are not many houses around. A group of 6 friends quit their high-paying jobs in the city to move to the suburbs to settle down. The house that had been built for many years was also rented by them. The main building is made up of thick slabs. The space is accentuated by the arches and the swimming pool in front. From a distance, the building looks like a mysterious mansion. The group of friends redesigned the interior, divided the space to accommodate many people, have a common place and an entertainment area. There is a fireplace in the house, perfect for evenings with wine and conversation. Outside is a large lawn, can set up a camping tent. The group of friends also planted a garden with fruits, flowers and vegetables. They cook with their own grown foods. The rest of the waste is returned to the land to make organic, environmentally friendly fertilizers. The interior of the house was conceived and implemented by a group of 6 people. In the garden are all kinds of fruits and vegetables grown according to organic methods, most are apples. In the harvest season, they will post to sell online and quickly sell out. Liu Lurui is the one who comes up with ideas and “draws” friends who “leave the city to go to the countryside”. This is not a temporary intention, but a dream she has cherished for many years. Previously, Liu studied environmental arts at Tianjin University. In the final year, she studied at Politecnico di Torino (Italy) as an exchange student. A group of friends hoeing the ground, planting trees, enjoying a different life. Once, she and her friends happened to be driving to Southern Italy, she was attracted by a very unspoiled farm, with a house built of volcanic stone, in front of the yard with olive and lemon trees. She feels their life is simple but also very lyrical. At that time, because of lack of funds, she and her friends decided to stay on the farm and ask to prune branches to earn money. In the middle of the farm there is a swimming pool, when tired, some people often jump into it to bathe. Liu said that in the first half of his life, it was the happiest period of his life. After returning home, Liu joined the China Institute of Architectural Design and Research. At the busiest time, she was only at home for 2-3 days a month. She had some health problems and had a mental breakdown. Outside of work, she has no time to enjoy life. Liu was happy when he left the city and returned to his hometown. By 2019, Liu had asked 5 of his friends to start a business in the suburbs of Beijing. In April 2020, their HOBO farm was completed. Liu is married and has a small child. Her husband is a technician, because of his busy work in Beijing, he only visits his wife on weekends. During the day they often set up tents, spread carpets, drink red wine and listen to music together. Now, people get to experience the lifestyle they once dreamed of. Before that, 6 people had different jobs. Some are single, some are in the midst of a career crisis. When they returned to the farm together, they found new happiness in life. Currently, the group of friends has many different sources of income such as working online, selling agricultural products from the farm and renting rooms. Sun Dong, a team member, is a graphic designer. She made a great contribution to the design and construction of many items of the farm. Sun loves to interact with the locals. Now, every time she drives into the village, the villagers will greet her with a smile.

Mr. Hu Han Feng – Chairman of Chideh Machinery Hoisting Co., Ltd (Hsinchu, Taiwan, China) is known by many as “the crane king”. This nickname comes from his industrial machinery business. In 2019, this giant caught attention when he revealed that he had 4 wives, 16 mistresses and 14 children. Because Taiwanese law does not allow a person to have more than one wife or husband, Hu is actually only legally married to one of his four wives. Notably, the Chinese giant spent 13 million USD to build an 8-storey villa for his wife, children and mistress to live. From the outside the villa looks like a European palace. The area inside the villa is about 660 m2. Hu gave each wife a separate floor, so that they were free to decorate their residence to their liking. Many decorative items in the house are gilded splendidly. Most of the villa furniture is of great value. The living room is decorated in a modern and luxurious style. Hu Han Feng also designed the happy bathroom on the 8th floor of the house, including 4 transparent bathrooms for the purpose of occasionally bathing with the wives. Mr. Hu shows off the interior of his palatial mansion. Image source: Suara. Video: Ho Chi Minh City preserves ancient villas. Source: VTV24

However, such a small town has been ranked as the richest town in the United States for many years, and its wealth will definitely refresh your new understanding.

Although it is more than 40 minutes away from the city center, it is only a dozen minutes away from the world’s most influential headquarters of Google, Tesla, and Facebook.

However, the people who live in suburban towns are not employees of these high-tech groups, but a large group of presidents.

More than a hundred years ago, Atherton was originally the most common agricultural town in the southern suburbs of San Francisco.

Later, with the rapid development of San Francisco, Silicon Valley gave birth to many high-tech companies that affected the world. Atherton, far away from the city center, had a quiet life and became a place where many CEOs bought real estate.

In just a few decades, Atherton’s housing prices soared like a rocket.

The most common house today is as high as 7 million U.S. dollars, and some large-scale luxury houses require more than 30 million U.S. dollars.

If it is some well-built manor, the price of more than 100 million US dollars is not surprising.

The reason why it is loved by these wealthy people is that Atherton is not far or near in distance, it can avoid the hustle and bustle of the city center, it can also provide a certain degree of privacy for the wealthy, and it can also facilitate work.

In addition, it is also a small town with investment value.

Over the past ten years, Atherton’s housing prices have risen by a minimum of about three times. If it was purchased 10 years ago, the price of a villa today is comparable to a huge windfall.

Of course, for those listed CEOs, Atherton’s real estate is just one year’s income. Living in Atherton is more of an identity in the circle.

Imagine that your neighbor is either the CEO or the chairman of a world-class company. This kind of high-level social interaction is itself a resource.

Children in public elementary schools are still descendants of high elites. In such an elite-to-elite atmosphere, the descendants educated by them will not be bad.

For example, there is an equestrian club in the town, and its membership costs hundreds of thousands of dollars a year.

In daily life, rich people can take their families to ride horses, and horse races and other activities are held every year.

But most of the time, its existence is dedicated to the social services of the rich.

In fact, Atherton’s package is not perfect.

When we buy a house, we will consider supermarkets, commercial districts, subways, hospitals, parks, schools and other facilities. But except for a park and three public elementary schools, Atherton’s daily life is not convenient.

For example, if you have to drive to the city center for shopping, you have to drive more than ten minutes to a big town for meals.

Of course, the lives that we ordinary people consider are trivial matters to the rich, and naturally someone will handle such trivial matters.

For the residents of Atherton, being clean and undisturbed is what people want.

In Atherton during the day, people are often not visible on the sidewalk.

The manor houses and villas of every house are tightly fenced to avoid being snooped by strangers.

The exquisite and luxurious mansions are like small worlds. People do not disturb each other. This is the life circle of the rich.

There are about 7,000 residents living in Atherton.

Except for the aboriginals, all those luxury houses were purchased by the rich in Silicon Valley, so Atherton was also dubbed the CEO town by outsiders.

Here, meeting a CEO with tens of millions of dollars in assets is not unusual.

The gathering of the rich has made Atherton’s per capita income far ahead every year.

According to the latest calculations, Atherton’s family has an average annual income of more than 520,000 U.S. dollars, and an annual income of 500,000 U.S. dollars (approximately RMB 3.4 million) is still the “poor” at the bottom of the town.

And this is still an average. What is the annual income of those top families?

The project “Urban embellishment” of the People’s Committee of Truc Bach ward has been “socialized”, attracting a large number of people to contribute and jointly implement. Facing this situation, the People’s Committee of Truc Bach ward has planned to implement a project to improve the environment of this lakeside road (section from Ngu Xa 1 bridge to Ngu Xa 2 bridge). The project implementation route has a length of 200m, one side is Truc Bach flower garden, the other side is a row of houses of 28 households. With the motto “Building to fight”, in the spirit of “The State and the people work together”, most of the funding for the project has been “socialized”, attracting a large number of people to participate in the project. contribute and join hands to implement. Hoang Duc Long (80 years old, living in Ngu Xa Street, Truc Bach Ward) said, after 24 years living here, for the first time his family and households here feel get fresh air; No more garbage piled up, no more fish dying in the water. Mr. Long’s house and other households are put on a new “clothing”, the yard in front of the house is planted with trees and carefully installed with a fence system. 28 houses of households along Truc Bach ditch are put on “new clothes” from the project. Ms. Nguyen Thi Minh Trang added that the most impressive thing is in the evening, when the sunset gradually fades, it is also when 200 lanterns light up. From the lakeside route to the flower garden campus, it becomes shimmering and fanciful by the color of lanterns. Mixed with the lantern light are frescoes reproducing the old town space, ancient beauty and culture of the old Hanoians. Nguyen Dan Huy, Chairman of the People’s Committee of Truc Bach Ward, affirmed that, in the context of the complicated development of the COVID-19 epidemic, as soon as the project was completed, many residents and tourists also came to “check-in”. but local officials have propagated and reminded people not to gather in large numbers. When the city controls the epidemic better, this place will become one of Hanoi’s tourist attractions. Although the scale of the project is still small, this is a very important premise so that many models can be replicated in the ward in the near future. Earlier on the evening of June 8, the People’s Committee of Truc Bach ward also held a ceremony to attach the sign “Urban embellishment work” for this project. Because of the COVID-19 epidemic, the ceremony’s activities took place quickly, avoiding large gatherings, and strictly following epidemic prevention rules. Video and photo series of News reporters recording the success of the project “Urban embellishment” of Truc Bach ward, Ba Dinh district, Hanoi: 200 brilliant lanterns beside Truc Bach canal. Image of large format propaganda poster “Protecting the environment and repelling plastic waste”. The flower garden is also attached with lanterns on the trunk to create a clean and beautiful environment. Many large frescoes are decorated along the wall of the route along Truc Bach lake. Due to the COVID-19 epidemic, this area is currently limited to gathering people. In the future, this place will be a tourist attraction. Mixed with the lantern light are frescoes reproducing the old town space, ancient beauty and culture of the old Hanoians. At the end of March 2021, the project “Urban embellishment” of Truc Bach ward was implemented. This project is “socialized”, attracting a large number of people to participate in funding support and jointly implement it. Previously, this place was flooded with garbage, but now the living environment has improved. People have more entertainment spots, and the quality of life is improved. Many large-format billboards propagate people to protect the environment. On June 8, the People’s Committee of Truc Bach ward held a ceremony to sign the project “Urban embellishment”.

Ancient city of Hanoi. In the early years of the 20th century, the Indochine architectural style was born. This style is a cross between French culture and local culture. If one has the opportunity to step into the old houses in the old quarter, it is not difficult to recognize this architectural feature in some corners. Currently, the Indochinese style is still in vogue but with more modern and fresh colors. A family has lived in the group of Hang Voi street (Hoan Kiem, Hanoi) for many years. From living habits, the rhythm of life is very familiar and do not want to move to another area. They want a new apartment in style and comfort. In particular, showing the “range” of the owner but still keeping the old features of the house. Before this request, architect Huy Do and design team A8 advised the family to renovate the apartment in Indochinese style. After a period of research and design, the old apartment building has had a spectacular makeover. Huy Do shared, when applying this style, the design team tries to refine the most quintessential features, ensuring full functionality but still maintaining a delicate aesthetic. Interior materials are mainly industrial wood mixed with natural wood. The living room, reception hall are tiled with cement tiles, the bedroom and kitchen use wooden floors. The living room and the worship room are two separate spaces, separated by a bamboo curtain but still connected. The architects used ancient patterned cement tiles, with sofa sets, TV cabinets from wood and lattice rattan, bearing Vietnamese imprints. Paintings of Indochinese girls, period paintings, tropical floral motifs, arched doors… are typical of this design style. The wooden floor matches the interior and the door. Dining table set for 6 people, bird cage chandeliers create accents for the dining area. The architects take advantage of the open space design, making the apartment more airy. From the dining table looking straight to the door and living room, observing every corner of the house. Kitchen cabinets, island table with white stone and fish scale blue stone. There are large windows to catch the sun and circulate air for the whole apartment. Cozy bedroom, the wood paneling on the headboard is cut by CNC machine. The rounded lines continue to work, helping homeowners feel comfortable when resting and bringing vitality. In the room, there is a neoclassical bathtub, a gilded shower. Baby bedroom, just ensuring to keep the style of the house but no less cute and comfortable. Small bathroom, using a yang washbasin, placed on a circular stone slab.

The design task given to 6717 studio is to design a tourist villa with seven different bedrooms, including four double rooms, one family room, one twin bed room, one four bed Dom room . Especially the villa has living space, dining, kitchen and swimming pool. All rooms and common living spaces fully exploit the view and river breeze. The villa must bring the atmosphere and spatial spirit of Hoi An but still be modern and contemporary. Architect 6717 shared: “Hoi An Oh Villa is a project reminiscent of an old town on the banks of Hoai River.” According to the architect, Hoi An is the cherishing of traditional Hoi An values ​​and blowing a new breeze in accordance with the breath of the times. Overall floor plan of the project. Hoi An Oi Villa was developed from the tube house structure of Hoi An ancient town: the front house, the bridge house and the back house. The image of a familiar small gate commonly seen in Hoi An is used in the project, creating familiarity and closeness when approaching. Hoi An Oi Villa is a combination of three main blocks combined with sub-blocks. The main block corresponds to the sleeping space, the sub-block corresponds to the toilet or the common living area, forming the rhythm of the neighborhood facade and harmonizing with the landscape of the whole area. The ground floor of the villa is arranged into two areas: the public space and the living space are connected by a side hall and a staircase. The first and second floors, each floor has three rooms, the rooms are separated by a toilet and a common living space, to increase privacy, especially the problem of sound. From the outside, the building has a brick-colored roof system with the traditional style of Hoi An. Door system “Thuong Song Lower Village” – a feature in traditional Hoi An architecture. The bars can slide closed, regulating ventilation and privacy for the building. The ground floor of the villa is arranged into two areas: public space and living space, which are connected with each other by the side hall and stairs. Stairs lead to the upper floors. The curved arch in the interior space is developed from the curves of the lantern to create a harmonious and impressive feature. The golden light of Hoi An lanterns makes the space warm and outstanding, reminiscent of the full moon nights of the Old Town that anyone has ever been to Hoi An. The public space is the living room – dining – kitchen area that is interconnected and directly connected to the swimming pool arranged along the house. Living space, family room is arranged at the end of the land, separate from the public area, and at the same time, the space is expanded to the back is a large porch. All rooms are fully exploited with river view. The house trick is contrast but still harmony. Contrast color between white – black of space and interior. Modern and traditional architectural lines and spaces. The awnings used on the balconies create a familiar image in traditional Vietnamese houses, while limiting the sun and rain on the balcony. Characteristic details such as handrails are integrated into the building. Section of Villa Floor plan layout.

Setenil de las Bodegas is a town in the province of Cádiz with about 3,000 inhabitants. The town stands out for its white-walled houses. In which, many accommodation places, restaurants and hotels are built in the rock cave. This place gives visitors a feeling of peace every time they visit. Photo: Westend61. The name “Setenil de las Bodegas” reflects the rich history of this town. “Setenil” refers to the 7 times Catholic rulers wrested territory from the Moors – Arab inhabitants. Only in their 7th attempt to conquer did they get this place. Later, residents used cool areas under the rock to store local produce, the town’s name adding the word “Bodegas”, which means “warehouse” in Spanish. Photo: Quiros_marian. Sitting at El Mirador restaurant, you can admire the view of unique houses along the Rio Trejo river gorge.

Sharing the images on Twitter, Mr. David Harrison said: “The cows cause chaos on Woodlands Road in Beverley. At least 7 cows have escaped from the village, walked long distances and are now tearing down people’s lawns. After eating all the grass on Woodlands Road, they play in Atkinson Road. This area has less grass, but there are quite good scratching lights.” However, the bulls’ ‘big day’ came to an end after being rounded up by Zowie Bell, herdsman at Beverley Westwood, but one cow still escaped. Mr. David Harrison humorously said: “A stray cow, it doesn’t know that their friend has come home. This is like going to a bar, going to the dance floor but not seeing your partner.” The president of Beverley Pasture Masters, Allan English, says there are about 300 cattle on the pastures around town, but the smaller one occasionally escapes, making its way into town. “Residents won’t mind if they don’t cause any major damage. We’ll have them back in Westwood soon,” said Allan English. Bulls living in the European countryside are often very curious but not aggressive in nature. However, some breeds of Limousins ​​in the Limousin and Marche regions of France are quite aggressive.

Almost no restaurant is full, many employees stand at the door, trying to invite passersby. In the evening, only very few bars have guests to relax. “We maintain operations in the hope that some miracle will happen, for example, seeing a long line of customers waiting to open. Before the pandemic, there were always foreigners coming to my restaurant to eat burgers, everyone people still have to wait in line. Now it’s not like that anymore, every day, as long as there are about 20 customers, I feel lucky,” said a shop owner. Itaewon neighborhood is empty of tourists because of the epidemic.

Most of the restaurants operate moderately with a small number of customers. Because of their reliance on foreign tourists, the streets of Seoul are going through an unprecedentedly difficult time. The pandemic has limited international travel for many months, and the source of visitors from locals has also decreased a lot because of social distancing and blockade rules. The Seoul Metropolitan Government predicts that the number of foreign tourists has decreased by 86%, from 13.9 million in 2019 to just 1.92 million in 2020. “These neighborhoods popular with foreigners have been hit very hard. We get a lot of phone calls asking for help from people doing business here,” said an official from the tourism department of the city government. The famous entertainment areas in Seoul rely heavily on foreign tourists. Photo: Seoulpubcrawl. More than a year after the pandemic broke out, the rate of vacant real estate in busy neighborhoods also skyrocketed because many businesses went bankrupt. According to the Korea Real Estate Commission, more than a third of the total store space in Myeong-dong is vacant, or 38.4%. This rate stands at 22.6% in Itaewon and 13.1% in Hongdae. Experts say that unless the pandemic ends, this trend is sure to continue. In an effort to revitalize these areas, starting in May, the Seoul city government offers coupons and gift cards for a number of special tourist attractions, including Itaewon and Myeong-dong. A city government official in the tourism policy department said Seoul is also preparing many support measures to attract more local tourists to these entertainment districts. At Itaewon, some signs of positive change gradually appeared. According to shop owners, although business is not as good as before, the number of visitors seems to have increased as they turn to attracting locals. “Things are starting to get better compared to the same period last year. Hope to see Itaewon bounce back to its glory years,” said Maeng Ki-hoon, head of the merchants association in Itaewon.

The number of overnight visitors in Phu Quoc (Kien Giang) in the first 2 days of the holiday is quite large. However, the number of visitors to the newly erected “city that never sleeps” is not as large as before the holiday. Tourists focus mainly on the neighborhood along the Venice canal. From 6pm, they began to flock to the “night city”. Due to the new entertainment complex being put into operation, the gondola service has from 2 to 3 boats carrying enough passengers. Nguyen Yen Ngoc, a local, said that since the night entertainment complex opened in Phu Quoc, she and her family often come here to play in the evening. “I am quite concerned about the epidemic situation because guests from many places come here for holidays. However, the family actively protects themselves, only taking off the mask when taking pictures,” the female tourist said. The teddy bear museum is also one of the highlights in this entertainment complex. Visitors are mainly families with young children and young people who come to take pictures to check-in. Chau Nguyet Han (An Giang) shared that this is her second visit to Phu Quoc. The first time I came to Phu Quoc a few years ago, the female tourist only went to the night market to eat and drink until 11 pm and then return to the hotel. ”This time, I have more time to spend the night with friends because this open entertainment complex has many check-in and sightseeing points. I see that the night street is not too crowded, perhaps because the epidemic has just broken out again, many people are afraid to go to public places,” added Han. From 8 pm, the night market begins to bustle with tourists coming to have fun and eat. This area focuses on seafood restaurants and cafes. In the evening, it rains, visitors do not sit for long. All attractions have temperature checkpoints. A representative of Vinpearl said that in the context of the outbreak of the disease again, the resort has activated the 3-layer shield for maximum control to prevent the epidemic. Specifically, employees maintain the wearing of masks during work and public contact, regularly check body temperature and check contact history.

Australian town miserable because of being occupied by white parrots Thousands of white parrots flock to the resort town of Nowra in New South Wales, Australia, creating an unbelievable scene resembling the one in the movies of talented horror director Alfred Hitchcock. White parrots occupy many areas, from light poles, gathering on lawns and rooftops of people, to messy trash cans they rummage through in search of food.

Not when the landscape is all white, people in the area also complain about the annoying noises that the birds make. This was a rare sight in town. Photos and videos of white birds congregating on the streets of Nowra went viral on social media. In the last few years, local people sometimes have to share the same area with white-feathered parrots. Although, many of them dislike or even hate parrots, most can’t do anything about them. A local Nowra resident said: “White-feathered parrots are thought to be pests, they destroy a lot of trees in the area. I have to repeatedly wipe their feathers from everywhere.” If you just look at the photos, many people will find it interesting, but the loud cries and droppings that the parrots leave everywhere will make many people clamor. However, as it is a protected species, locals have little choice when it comes to dealing with the birds. If you’re driving or walking through the Nowra region, it’s not uncommon to see flocks of parrots perched on power lines, car parks, and billboards. They don’t mind rolling around in the grass, picking up food in the trash or sliding down the roof to play. Sometimes they even make a big invasion that covers a long distance together. White-haired parrots have occupied Nowra for a long time. In fact, experts have been warning about this for years. These birds are very intelligent, they have ‘brain’, like a child about 2 years old so they quickly found out that it is better to move to an artificial cozy area than to arid wilderness in New South Wales. Since before the 1950s, white feathered parrots appeared in some urban areas and now they are ubiquitous. “We created a better habitat for the parrots and they arrived as expected,” said the expert at the University of South Australia. The spacious lawns of Nowra, surrounded by tall trees, and easily accessible water, are the perfect habitat for white parrots. Many fear white-feathered parrots will soon become a nuisance to major urban centers such as Melbourne and Adelaide. However, this would definitely be much better than the town being invaded by giant foxes.

Once upon a time, electric fans were only for aristocratic families. They are hung in the house not only to cool, but also as decorative objects to show wealth. This antique ceiling fan hanging in Mr. Phuc’s house is valued at more than 100 million VND. The most prominent in the antique fan collection is the Italian Marelli line, which is known as the king of fans, the details are reaching to the level of sophistication.

In the entire process of Baima Town’s digital construction, China Mobile has played an indispensable role. It is reported that in April 2020, Nanjing Mobile and Nanjing National Agricultural High-tech Zone signed a strategic cooperation agreement on 5G + green and smart agriculture. According to the content of the agreement, Nanjing Nonggao District was listed as China Mobile’s joint innovation base, and actively promoted and displayed China Mobile’s 5G+ agriculture, 5G+ manufacturing, 5G+ tourism and other related information services, and jointly promoted the results of cooperation between the two parties. In September 2020, Nanjing Mobile and the Baima Town Government jointly launched the “Digital Village Project in Baima Town, Lishui District”. The introduction is becoming a new driving force to activate rural revitalization. Digital technology enables smarter agricultural construction As the saying goes: “Food is the heaven for the people.” Food comes from agriculture and is the basis for humans and other living things to survive. In today’s rapidly changing society with more and more abundant material conditions, agriculture is still one of the productive forces that we cannot ignore. Relying on science and technology to realize the modernization and intelligence of agriculture, that is, the realization of smart agriculture has also become an inevitable part. For the Baima Town government, information technology now opens up new ideas for its agricultural development and makes it smarter. In the command center, we see the intelligent management of agriculture based on the digital agriculture cloud platform. It is reported that the digital agriculture cloud platform includes GIS digital farm application system, information management application system, Internet of Things application system, production management application system, and full-chain traceability application system, which can effectively realize the digital transformation and upgrade of the local cash crop industry. Among them, the GIS digital farm application system is composed of two subsystem modules: GIS digital farm and GIS resource planning. According to the staff, “Based on the spatial geographic information system, it gathers various data on farm production and operation, environmental monitoring, and agricultural operations, and displays the current farm production and operation conditions in a panoramic and full process, the dynamic changes of the farmland greenhouse environment, the growth of crops, the occurrence of diseases and insect pests, etc. Situation. Realize real-time control and supervision of agricultural production conditions, real-time dispatch and management of farm personnel, and improve technical services and management efficiency.” The information management application system is composed of six subsystem modules: enterprise management, farm management, plot management, facility management, personnel management, and variety management. It realizes the standardization, scientification and modernization of farm management and improves the overall management efficiency of the farm. The Internet of Things application system consists of 7 subsystem modules: environmental monitoring, pest monitoring, video monitoring, stem monitoring, smart greenhouse, water and fertilizer integration, and equipment management. Farm managers can understand the farm crop growth environment and early warning information in real time through the system. , At the same time, intelligently analyze the collected data, link greenhouse equipment, water and fertilizer equipment to realize intelligent and automatic control, and improve the overall production efficiency of the farm. The production management application system includes six subsystem modules: production plan management, agricultural management, agricultural material management, harvest management, processing management, and inspection management. It helps the farm realize the standardized production operation management of crop planting, and the farm management personnel formulate the production plan through the system/ Agricultural operations are issued to the operators of the farm divisions in the form of tasks. The operators receive the tasks through the mobile terminal, execute the tasks according to the plan requirements, and submit the operation records. Work records will be displayed directly on the platform and compared with the plan. The full-chain traceability application system includes two subsystem modules: agricultural product traceability management and trace source code management. The system collects the full-link data from production to sales, and displays the node data of the production process to end consumers. The platform ensures the accuracy and non-modification of data through technical means, and enhances the credibility of the platform. Through the monitoring and analysis of big data, a good closed-loop data cycle can be formed. In addition to providing consumers with agricultural product safety information, it can also open up communication channels between enterprises and consumers, and consumers’ voices can be fed back to enterprises. , Companies can better provide consumers with quality services. Facilitate government supervision and consumer inquiries to trace back the planting production process, and further enhance the government’s supervision of the entire ecological chain of agricultural products and the building of agricultural products brand. In terms of outdoor facilities, the camera-type insect light can use remote photography to realize real-time pest monitoring, and combine plant protection experts and artificial intelligence analysis of pests to achieve green prevention and control of crop pests; spore traps provide for predicting and preventing disease epidemics and infections Reliable data, plant protection experts and artificial intelligence analyze the damage of disease spores, scientifically guide the development of crop disease prevention and control; 5G UAV plant protection improves spraying efficiency, etc. These advanced equipment can effectively guarantee the yield and quality of crops. Not only that, it is conducive to 5G+VR technology to set up remote teaching classrooms in the Zhongzhi Institute, combined with the resources of agricultural experts and professors of scientific research units, while teaching agricultural knowledge in the classrooms, farmers in remote villages can watch the lessons in the classroom in real time through VR glasses . Digital technology helps rural governance to be smarter “Digital Village” landed in Lixiang Village, Shitouzhai Community, Baima Town, Lishui District, Nanjing City. As a pilot of rural digital governance in Lishui District, because of its unique and profound red culture, it has attracted a large number of tourists to visit and learn. Relying on technologies such as the Internet of Things, big data, blockchain, artificial intelligence, and 5G, Jiangsu Mobile has launched a 5G Internet of Things platform and a two-way traceability system for agricultural products to assist in the construction of a map of village affairs, a map of Lixiang resources, and a red Lixiang A picture to create a comprehensive information display platform to supervise and display the operation of the rural digital governance platform. At the same time, it is equipped with VR live broadcast and guide, Vlog internet celebrity clocking machine, smart dock, smart manhole cover, smart zebra crossing, water quality monitoring, meteorology Basic intelligent facilities such as stations. Taking the smart tourism system in the digital village platform as an example, we can strengthen the construction of 5G networks, 5G+AR tour guides, Internet celebrity check-ins, smart sensors and other information infrastructure service facilities for the hot spots of Red Li Lane, and build in business collaboration and data sharing In terms of achieving “transparent” smart scenic spots and smart tourism, it provides services such as real-time heat, source of passenger flow, passenger flow trend, and emergency warning. In Red Li Lane, the reporter also experienced it in real time. We have seen that in the whole process, through face recognition, trajectory tracking and other algorithms, the reporter is always the focus of follow-up, and blurs other characters in the whole picture, connects scenic spots with moving lines, and generates star-like follow-up VLog. , Very nice. Provide excellent autonomous driving test services Within the industrial new city of Lishui Economic Development Zone, Nanjing, Jiangsu Mobile deployed a vehicle-road collaboration network and autonomous driving test infrastructure to build a semi-closed controlled test road for autonomous driving technology and advanced driver assistance function testing.

Bun rieu on Hanoi sidewalk Eat depending on where … Whenever I go away, or rather just leave Hanoi, my eating instincts suddenly become weak. I began to crave things that when I stay at home, see it every day, don’t glance. This special feeling often emerges as soon as the second day of arriving in a strange city. I would have a terrible craving (with a feeling of willingness to trade off at any cost) a bowl of vermicelli or a plate of vermicelli for example. I also don’t understand why I should be so shallow. Remember once, when the car had just arrived in the town of Seria (Brunei), I happened to see a boiled chicken hanging in a glass case. At that time at noon, I did not pay any attention to the new scenery or the urging calls of the team leader. Immediately my eyes were glued to the glass case and saliva like a poor boy thirsty for the first time from the countryside to the street and saw the delicious food in the stall. The reason is that this chicken resembles the chicken at home, has been boiled again, the thin yellow skin promises a hearty table after days of torture with unsuitable lunches and dinners. I must also add that, I cannot stand chicken dish in any country other than Vietnam. Most countries use industrial chicken for menu, moreover, it is frozen industrial chicken, skinless, legless, and wingless. Since the frozen industrial chicken breast I don’t consider it as food, it is a filling, rather, it shame the noble dishes made from chicken. So, when I saw the fine food in the glass case of a stall in the town of Seria, with the eyes of a “chicken connoisseur”, I immediately realized that this chicken was clearly a fellow countryman with the broiler chickens. at home. However, for a long time, I have learned to get used to the fact that not everything desires to become my own property, so I have to let the leader of the delegation to enter a Chinese restaurant and gnaw on the tender curtain, salt porridge. and chao soy sauce. Many Hanoi people are also picky about food. Sophistication does not mean to paint the pride of the taste, but the dish must be in the right taste and style. Whatever you say, keep stepping out of Hanoi, it is not easy to find vermicelli, vermicelli, noodles, rolls … in the true meaning that those words suggest. At that time, we can see the sentence “going home unemployed”. Diners lined up to eat Pho Bat Dan Culinary memories Hanoi food is not only an art but also associated with my childhood memories. Remember 20 years ago, our floods used to gather breakfast at a row of vermicelli near the corner of Yet Kieu – Nguyen Du street. Back then, it was one of the cheapest dishes, this restaurant was delicious, of course a familiar place for breakfast. Crab bricks are processed firmly, raw vegetables mixed with banana and chili powder, fragrant and indispensable for the characteristic taste of shrimp paste. I eat my breakfast on vermicelli almost all year round. Speaking of loyalty to the restaurant, I probably still lost to my father. When I was a child, sometimes he still put me on the street mannequin in Hoan Kiem street. This is the shortest street in Hanoi, but no Hanoi girl does not know it. Sometimes they forgot the street name and called it “mannequin”. My father said, he ate here since he was 10 years old. At that time there was an old man pushing a shopping cart to stand for sale, the clicking sound of beef cutters was a characteristic sound that indicated whether the old man was selling or not today. The old man “the ancestor” of the “mannequin” is now a natural man. The job of selling mannequins in Hoan Kiem street is a profession that makes money. People crowded each other because of the mannequin, people got angry at each other because (gave) the mannequin slowly, people were excited or irritable because of the mannequin. Today’s salad is not the same as in the old days, apart from dried beef, there is also a full range of beef, spleen, roasted birds, sour rolls, shrimp flour cake … Bun Rieu is not intact as when I ate breakfast 20 years ago. before. It grinds big snails, small snails, and then includes raw beef, sausages, fried tofu, quakes … Referring to quarrels, 15 years ago, Phan Boi Chau street (corner of Cua Nam) used to be a “funeral street”. not the fashion footwear street nowadays. Every night comes, especially on cold winter nights, young men and women come to eat hot. A tiny swing costs 100 VND, served with chili sauce mixed with pickles. It was a delicious treat, especially for the little money students. Dried beef salad Stylish level Unknown since ever, an unwritten sign to stipulate the “trendy class” among Hanoi’s teenagers is to hold all the eating places in the city. Brand-name clothes, fashion vehicles are nothing if an 18-year-old girl cannot think of a famous place to… eat morning pho. Food is one of the endless passions of young people. Although in 2010 there were many brands of KFC, Lotteria, Pizza Hut, Pepperonis, Pho Vuong, Pho 24 … on the streets, Hanoi people (for some reason), luxurious or impoverished, still enjoyed sitting on the sidewalk. summer in smog, in the roar of car horns, the grunt of the crowded salesman and in the dry summer sun, the chilly dry winds of winter. Teen groups like it even more. Hey, boiled snails Lieu Giai, Luong Van Can; Lo Duc, Bat Dan, Ton Duc Thang beef noodle soup; chicken noodle soup Mai Hac De, Do Hanh, Trieu Viet Vuong; bun rieu Hoe Nhai, Phan Boi Chau, Thi Sach; bun cha Hang Manh, Nguyen Khuyen; Noodles Mai Hac De, O Quan Chuong; Hai Ba Trung vermicelli; Hang Chi Lane Chicken Noodles; Cau Go spring rolls; Lo Su and Hang Thung porridge heart; boy porridge Le Van Huu; Yet Kieu bread, Hue city; To Hien Thanh rolls; Ly Quoc Su pillow cake; bun thang Luong Van Can, Hang Luoc, Cau Go; Bun Khanh grows; Truc Bach pho roll; the tapeworm noodles Mai Hac De, Dinh Liet; Hang Da market beef noodle soup; Mai Hac De eel vermicelli; Cam Chi chicken sticky rice; Tong Duy Tan chicken, grilled chicken legs Nguyen Van Phuc … Writer Di Li In fact, I think only one third of these brands are food worthy. However, no matter what, their brands are attached to the street name. To the point where people keep mentioning Bat Dan, people can faintly smell the scent of beef noodle soup, and mentioning Phat Loc alley is like seeing pieces of yellow beans. In recent years, the world economy has been in recession, and Hanoians cannot restrain their culinary enjoyment. Eating on the sidewalk is also a pleasure. More and more dishes are imported, increasing the diversity of the land Kinh which is already very sophisticated about cuisine. Then people also composed many more strange dishes to stimulate diners. “I miss twelve” Either way, the people of Hanoi who go far cannot help but remember the feeling in the cold winter night, sometimes honey is pouring out from sweet potatoes baked on charcoal in a summer corner. And right at the moment of writing this article, next to the author’s computer is a cup of chilled longan tea. Tea can only be found in Hanoi. It brings sophistication and elegance to its composition, even if it’s just a lotus wrapped in a label. The longan must be Hung Yen longan, thick with flesh, small seeds, and sharp sweetness. The thin longan type of Saigon, thick longan but not enough sweetness of Thailand, tiny pepper longan … cannot form longan tea. Each cup of longan tea has only a few seeds, but filled with it is the diligence of the worker, the purity of the natural fruit seeds and the sweetness, the fragrance of taste. Summer, new lotus and longan. And also only in summer, do people want to enjoy a cool glass of longan tea. Eating longan tea, no matter how hungry or thirsty, should not follow the way of Chu Bat Gioi to devour the peach. It is necessary to sip on the aroma of longan, the rich taste of lotus seeds, the aroma of distilled sugar to enjoy, so that when leaving Hanoi, in the heat of Saigon, Bangkok will frantically remember a glass of Ha tea. Cabinet.

More than four hundred years of time have passed. Today’s golden tea has gone out of Ludong Mountain, out of Baojing County, out of Hunan, spreading its branches and leaves in the mountains and rivers of our country, and it is deeply loved by people. This April, Xiaoyu and his friends came to the origin of Baojing Golden Tea-Ludongshan Town, Baojing County, Xiangxi Prefecture, Hunan Province. Lvdongshan Town belongs to Baojing County and is located at the junction of Jishou City, Guzhang County and Baojing County in Xiangxi Prefecture, Hunan Province. Starting from Jishou, it takes about an hour to reach Ludongshan Town. On the road, looking from a distance, a row of strange peaks stand proudly on the top of a huge rock wall, standing alone among the rugged mountains, with double caves like “Lu” running across the mountain, which is extremely mysterious and breathtaking. At the bottom of the gorge is a winding creek that quietly extends to the distance. My friend smiled and told me that the famous Ludong Mountain, the origin of golden tea, had arrived. What to do during a trip to Ludongshan Town? We can see the tea garden. My friend told me that there are 3,446 households and 15,695 people in 8 villages in Ludongshan Town. 400,000 mu of golden tea are planted in the entire Xiangxi prefecture, during which 53,000 mu are planted in Ludongshan Town, among which more than 2,700 tea growers, with an average of nearly 3 mu per capita.

Along the tea mountain road, wandering among the green tea gardens, you will have a panoramic view of the spring scenery of the mountains. The tea buds are sprouting and the mountains and greenery are everywhere, which makes people feel relaxed and happy. The most beautiful tea mountain, well-deserved! At the vernal equinox, the tea trees in the mountains spit green, and the tea pickers in the Miao uniforms shuttled in the meantime, with a special flavor; in the midsummer, climbing up and outing, a cup of cold tea, overlooking the endless tea garden; early autumn, the Miao drum beats the sky, Miao family It’s not lively to catch autumn; in the winter solstice, make a cup of golden tea, around the bonfire, everyone laughs and talks about life… We can go to the Golden Village to see the 415-year-old “Golden Tea Tree King” from the Ming Dynasty Chongzhen period. This tea tree king is currently the only living plant intangible cultural heritage protected object in Hunan Province and is known as a “drinkable cultural relic.” The Golden Village was formed in 2016 by the original Huangjin Village, Paiji Village, Banghai Village and Shangxia Beitu Group. The Golden River runs through it. Golden Village, with 7 ancient tea gardens of Derangong, Kuru, Tuantian, Bangnawu, Gezhemai, Longjingao, and Lengzhaihe, 148,600 square meters; 718 ancient tea trees in the Ming Dynasty and 1,339 ancient tea trees in the Qing Dynasty Plants; There are 2057 ancient tea trees with a trunk diameter of more than 30 cm. The tea tree king is 4.8 meters high, the crown width is 5.5 meters, the tree circumference is 120 cm, the crown cover area is 26 square meters, and the main trunk diameter is 95 cm. 415 springs. It is said that at the Baojing Golden Tea (Changsha) meeting in 2016, the tea produced by this tea tree king was once purchased by a company for 20 taels of Baojing Golden Tea. It can be described as “one tael of gold, one tael of gold). tea”. We can experience picking tea and frying tea. Nowadays, it is the time when the quality of golden tea is the best of the year, when the amino acid content peaks. The fine golden tea is brewed, and the leaves are stretched in the water again, returning to fresh green, with a tangy fragrance. Fresh and sweet, the tea fragrance is overflowing, and it diffuses from the tip of the tongue, making people forget the turmoil of the world in an instant. This bite is worth waiting for a whole year. We can also see Miao Village. My friend told me that the Miao villages around Ludong Mountain are exceptionally beautiful. More than 100 Miao villages have been preserved in Ludongshan Town. Many Miao villages still maintain the original style and features. They are built against the mountains, with a small wooden house connected to each other with a lot of stilts, and few people come to visit. We can also taste the most authentic Xiangxi cuisine. Whether you can eat the authentic full tea feast of the Miao family depends on your luck! Roasted pork with black tea, roasted pig’s feet with green tea, black tea comb button, yellow tea braised old duck, fish white tea, fried tea insects, golden tea omelette, five-color tea soup, the aroma is overflowing, drooling, gobbled up, eats… …. Such Xiangxi, such Baojing, such Ludong Mountain, waiting for you to visit~~ Wentu/Nalan Xiaoyu Xiaowu

Tonglu is an excellent tourist city. It can even be called “the land of immortals” and “the small city of treasures”. This is inseparable from the rich natural and cultural landscapes here. The profound cultural heritage deposited by the long history is inseparable from the Jiangnan The beautiful scenery blends perfectly, making Tonglu the back garden of many big cities. Not long ago, the topic “Tonglu Encountered Deng Chao and Sun Li” instantly appeared on the hot search. That’s right, Deng Chao and Sun Li’s couple came to this fairy land, and Tonglu once again entered the public’s field of vision. Where did Deng Chao and Sun Li go? Why did you choose to go to Tonglu? ……Many reasons became everyone’s attention instantly. There are certain reasons why I chose to visit Tonglu, the biggest reason is that it is inseparable from the scenery of Tonglu itself. The scenic spot they visited was the “Yan Ziling Diaotai” scenic spot. Yanziling Diaotai Scenic Spot is located in the foothills of Fuchun Mountain south of Tonglu County. It is named after the famous hermit Yan Ziling lived in seclusion here during the Eastern Han Dynasty. Visiting Yanziling Diaotai Scenic Spot, not only can you feel the profound historical and cultural heritage here, but also the beautiful Fuchun River landscape is also unobstructed. After all, this is the essence of Fuchun River. There is a stone archway in the Yanziling Diaotai Scenic Area. The archway is unique in shape, facing the river and the mountains, and the scenery is superb. Now it is also the online celebrity check-in point here, and many couples come here to take pictures. The front plaque of the stone archway is “Yan Ziling Diaotai”, and the back plaque is “Mountain High and Water Long”. These four words are taken from Mr. Fan Zhongyan’s poem “Mr. Yan’s Ancestral Hall”. “The wind of the gentleman, the mountains are high and the rivers are long”, is also the highest evaluation of Mr. Yan Ziling by literati in the past. In addition to Yan Ziling Fishing Platform, Tonglu also has many fairy spots, such as “Daqi Mountain National Forest Park, Yaolin Wonderland, Shen’ao Ancient Village”. I have visited many mountains and rivers in the south of the Yangtze River before. Daqi Mountain has given me a deep impression. Historically, it has been praised as “the first mountain in the south of the Yangtze River”, and now it is even more like a “Xanadu”. Water is the soul of this place. Walking through the valleys of Daqi Mountain, the gurgling of the clear spring lingers in the ears. Hearing the sound of the water, the whole person calmed down. I used to visit the mountains and water in summer, but I didn’t expect that the scenery in spring is also very unique. After the whole tour, the whole person will not feel too tired. Tonglu, the land of immortals, really hides a “wonderland”, it is “Yaolin’s Wonderland”. The Yaolin Wonderland is the Yaolin Cave, with a depth of 1 kilometer. The strange stalactites along the way are illuminated by lights, and what is displayed before everyone is a colorful, magnificent and colorful picture. The famous painter Ye Qianyu once praised: “China Rare, rare in the world”. The history of Yaolin Wonderland is also very long. There are related records in the “Tonglu County Chronicles” as early as the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. The written records describe this place as “the place where gods live.” Nature is so magical, always creating extraordinary and unimaginable things. If you travel to Tonglu, I recommend you to check in for the “Shen’ao Ancient Village”. The ancient village of Shen’ao has a history of more than 800 years. There are many ancient buildings in the village, most of which are based on the ancient buildings of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Although its architectural style is Huizhou architecture, it gives people a different feeling. The ancient houses here The building is extremely tall, and almost every household has a patio, which is also a testament to the prosperity of Shen’ao Village. No matter where I go to visit, I will almost always check in and walk around the ancient village. Not only can I feel the profound cultural heritage here, but also the many exquisitely shaped ancient buildings. Of course, the most important thing is quietness and leisure, which makes people especially enjoy the comfortable and slow life here. I don’t know, have you ever been to this fairy-like place in Tonglu? What is your impression of the scenery here? If you haven’t been, do you plan to travel to Tonglu? Welcome to leave comments.
