When it was time to visit the special economic zone, Qin Yin was busy late the night before, helping Chen Lai to clean up the hygiene and cleaning of the restaurant and some things that were not dealt with in time. I got up early in the morning that day to help Chen Qian pack her luggage and clean the room where she had lived. Chen Qian saw it in her eyes and commented that Qin Yin is qualified and very hardworking, and she will definitely make a difference in the future.

The car drove directly to the front of the restaurant, Qin Yin said goodbye to Chen Lai, and then set off with Chen Qian. Chen Qian's male and female entourage is two, the male is driving, and the female is sitting in the co-pilot's seat. Chen Qian and Qin Yin sat in the back row. The car drove in the direction of the Special Economic Zone. For the first time, Kotone felt the charm of a car, and the convenience of starting from the front door was really enviable.

The morning sun shines through the tall trees on the roadside, and the rays of light make the road look idyllic. As the car drove through the streets of Guangzhou, Qin Yin saw some men in white vests running on the side of the road through the car window. Except for those who get up in the morning to run, most passers-by ride bicycles. The dress is also casual, some are wearing navy T-shirts, some are wearing homespun cloth, and some young people are wearing colorful clothes. In Qinyin's view, at the beginning of the reform and opening up, people's pursuit of beauty and fashion has not yet reached a unified standard.

Leaving the bustling section of the city, Qin Yin saw that some old uncles were struggling to push the trolley, and the trolley was loaded with bricks and tiles. What made Qin Yin look sideways for a long time was a tractor full of vegetables, hurrying towards the direction of the provincial capital. Qin Yin is accustomed to rural life, has a soft spot for vegetables, and is easy to pay attention to.

Chen Qian, who was sitting on the side, soon noticed that Qin Yin was paying attention to vegetables. She smiled and asked Qinyin, "What's the matter, you are particularly fond of vegetables?"

"I saw so many vegetables being shipped to the city, and I remembered the vegetable fields in my hometown. ”

Chen Qian told Qinyin: "A few years ago, when I passed here, there were not so many vegetables. Now that the prices of agricultural products have been liberalized in the provincial capitals, the suburbs have adjusted the structure of the agricultural industry, and encouraged as many operations as possible under the condition of ensuring grain production, and the varieties and quantities of vegetables have gradually increased. ”

The car drove out of the provincial capital, and under the bright sun, the vast plain suddenly looked extraordinarily green. Qin Yin suddenly screamed, "Wow! "I saw on both sides of the road, wide farmland, all kinds of vegetables planted in the fields, some farmers wearing straw hats were picking vegetables in the fields, several tractors were parked on the side of the road, and some farmers loaded the picked vegetables onto the tractors. Qin Yin understood, the tractors that transported vegetables into the city just now should have started from here.

Chen Qian was also interested in the vegetable scene here, so she stopped the car and got out of the car with Qinyin. Chen Qian asked the two entourages to stay, and said to Qinyin: "In the past, only rice was produced in this area, but now in addition to rice, such a large area of vegetables is also grown, and I am also very interested in these changes in the countryside, so I will stop by and take a look." Kotone nodded happily.

Looking across the road, at the end of the fields, some brick houses are hidden in the woods. Qin Yin followed Chen Qian and walked towards the village one after the other. The fields in front of them and behind them were full of all kinds of vegetables.

Walking into the village, the villagers heard that it was a beautiful boss from Hong Kong who came, and they came out to see what was going on. The originally quiet village became full of people for a while. A few people who seemed to be in charge of the village came over and took the initiative to receive Chen Qian and Qinyin. After they knew that Chen Qian was the boss of Hong Kong who returned to the mainland to invest, they were extremely enthusiastic, aroused their nostalgia, asked about Hong Kong, and expressed their strong interest in the outside world. He also expressed his wish for Chen Qian to come back and drive the development of the mainland.

Chen Qian finished chatting about family life, and as soon as the conversation changed, she returned to the matter of planting vegetables in the local countryside. When it comes to growing vegetables, farmers have a lot to say.

It turns out that the countryside in this plain area is located in a wide area between the provincial capital and the special economic zone, and the grasp of policies is also ahead of other regions. In their village, which is more than 1,000 people, since the production of the village was carried out on a contract basis, the peasants have taken advantage of the proximity to the provincial capital, and about 99 percent of the people have devoted themselves to growing vegetables and selling them to the provincial capital.

"Do you have an income from growing vegetables?" asked Chen Qian. Qin Yin was also very interested in this question, and listened to it.

"That's a good income, much higher than the income from growing food. The person in charge said with a fluttering eyebrow.

Qin Yin asked curiously, "What about the remaining one percent?"

The person in charge laughed: "Those people are even more powerful. Then he said that those people had contracted hundreds of acres of land to grow all kinds of fruits, peanuts, Huaishan, and other cash crops, and hired more than a dozen farmers from other places to give them 200 or 300 per month.

"Wow!" Qin Yin couldn't believe that she was also in the countryside before, why she didn't expect that these common rural vegetables, fruits, and crops could also have such a good income, "two or three hundred yuan a month, which is several yuan a year!"

Seeing that Qin Yin was so amazed, the person in charge smiled and said, "You think this is amazing? If you go further, the village two or three kilometers ahead is even more powerful, they only have more than 20 households, and the whole village raises pigs. ”

"Raising pigs?" Qin Yin remembered that Ah Gui next door often mentioned raising chickens and pigs, and couldn't help but scream.

The person in charge continued: "They specialize in raising pigs, and one of the families has more than 100 pigs, and their income is very high. ”

"Who are the pigs sold to?" asked Kotone.

"There are more and more hotels and restaurants in the provincial capital, and they don't have enough pigs to sell. The man in charge said.

Qin Yin immediately thought of Chen Lai's restaurant, which needed to buy a lot of vegetables and pork every day, oh, it turned out that these vegetables and pork were produced in the suburbs of the city.

The person in charge pointed to the qin and asked Chen Qian: "This girl shouldn't be from your Hong Kong." Then he said that the peasants before the liberation did not even have land, and they lived by farming for the landlords, and no one cared about starving to death. Now the peasants have land, and after the land has been divided and the land is contracted, there are more outlets for the peasants. For example, those who stay in the rural areas are engaged in specialized planting and breeding, such as those who grow vegetables, fruits, medicinal herbs, and flowers, and those who raise chickens, pigs, and rabbits. Wait a minute. A lot.

"Are there any left in the countryside?"

"There are more people left behind. "For example, when the special economic zone begins to be constructed, some people can go to civil engineering, work in factories, or even open a small grocery store or snack store. There are also farmers who specialize in transporting vegetables and pork into the city for us. In short, farmers now have more and more ways to make a living.

Qin Yin silently remembered what she saw and heard in the village, and thought to herself, when she was working part-time at the commune radio station, the people in the small mountain village often inquired about the news from the outside world, and what she saw and heard today was not the best answer.

Qin Yin thought that if anyone asked again, there would be more information that could be revealed now. However, when can people in a foreign land be strangers to the people of the small mountain village about what they have heard, seen and learned today, so that the mountain village can also keep up with the development of the situation?

Chen Qian took Qinyin's hand, and Qinyin came back to his senses. Wave goodbye to the people in the village and get back to the car. The car continued to the Special Economic Zone.

"Qinyin, from the small mountains to the big cities and plains, did you learn a lot of things that you didn't know before?" asked Chen Qian.

"Hee-hee, I've learned a lot. If I were to go back to the small mountain village, I would not be the same person again. Kotone said.

"Hahahaha!"
