　　Now I can do business at home, and my life is much better, getting better and better. I definitely like being at home, where I can take care of the elderly and children.

　　The endogenous motivation of the masses is also stimulated, and everyone is more passionate and proactive in everything. For the implementation of some of our industries, some of the development of the industry, and then some of our sporadic planting and breeding into a large-scale, do some land transfer. There are also some ways we work nearby, which makes our people feel much richer than before.

　　[Explanation] Zhao Jiaqing said that in the next development, the village will continue to play the role of cooperatives, make plans for scientific development, and achieve continuous increase in villagers’ income.
