China News Service, Huzhou, October 29 (Reporter Hu Fengsheng) In Huzhou City, Zhejiang Province, there are two "black and smelly rivers" that have transformed into "happy rivers".

The former is called Lishanyang, which was once Fan Li's hermitage, and the latter is called Luqiyang, which is said to be the naval port of the Wu State Navy during the Spring and Autumn Period.

At one time, Gu Yang also had the death of water.

The former waste water from pigs is discharged directly, while the latter is covered with garbage and plants.

Now, after the two lakes have been transformed, they have become the "model rivers and lakes" in Zhejiang Province. One of the "codes" is the transformation of governance concepts and models.

  Lishan Yang, also known as Guanyin Yang, is located in Lishan Village, Zhongguan Town, Deqing County, with a total water area of ​​220 acres and a total river length of 4.1 kilometers.

Legend has it that Fan Li retired after becoming successful and took Xi Shi to hide here.

"The silver plate is full of green snails, the rouge at the entrance of the cave brings zero rain, the strange way Xi Shi Zeng stayed, and the water poplar and willow also learned to ping Ting." The Qing poet Xu Yitai once wrote a poem, praised the scenery of Lishan.

  But Gu Yang has also experienced the death of water.

  Wei Jun, vice chairman of the Zhongguan Town People’s Congress and former party branch secretary of Lishan Village, introduced that at that time, pigs were raised on the banks of Lishan Yang, fish were raised in the river, wastewater was discharged directly, and the water was rich and stinky, making it a piece of the villagers’ Heart disease.

Many elderly people in the village said that the younger generation can only "see the mountains but not the water, and can't remember the homesickness."

  Since 2014, Deqing County has launched a river treatment project, and through treatment measures such as river dredging and bank slope improvement, Lishanyang has been turned into a "happy river" with smooth rivers, clear waters, green banks, beautiful scenery, and harmonious people.

At the same time, during the treatment process, the focus was on the excavation of rural characteristic culture. 10 ancient bridges lying on the 4.1-kilometer-long river course have become a unique "Old Bridge Museum" and "Water Culture Park", driving local beautiful rural tourism and homestays. economic development.

  The organic integration of culture, ancient villages, water conservancy and ecology has made Lishanyang favored by capital and tourists.

The Shuiyangnianhua Ancient Marriage Culture Street project with a total investment of 580 million yuan, and the Lishan Boutique Hotel with an investment of more than 100 million yuan have successively settled down. Not long ago, the first batch of 5 homestays in the village were also built and opened, and the industrial foundation was gradually consolidated.

Gu Songping, a former Zhuhu and Lishan villager, built a two-storey building with carved outer doors and windows, exquisite patterns carved on the beams and pillars, and a plaque with the words "Lishan Renjia" written on it.

"After the renovation, this is the homestay. If I don't become a pigboy, I will be the owner of the Lishan Village Homestay in the future." Speaking of future life, his face was filled with a smile.

  Driving north from Lishan Village for about an hour, we arrived at Luqiyang.

"Luqi" is an ancient place name. During the Spring and Autumn Period, Wu and Yue fought against each other. Wu Wanghelu's brother-in-law set up the "Three Cities and Three Qi" on the shore of Taihu Lake. Luqiyang was the military port where Wu State trained naval forces.

  However, although they are all Guyang, the water control methods of the two places are quite different.

  "In the past, there were weeds on both sides of the bank. The river was filled with rhombus nets and domestic garbage. There were also many villagers who built chaotically by the river, raised chickens and ducks, and discharged domestic sewage directly into the river." According to Qin Weijuan, secretary of the Wangcun Party branch and head of the village-level river chief workstation, in 2012, Changxing built an experimental demonstration zone of Taihu customs and built a lotus pond landscape node with Luqiyang as the center, forming a wetland style Ecological landscape.

  The environment has improved and there are more and more fish. Many morning and night fishing enthusiasts like to gather here on weekends, but they also bring a lot of garbage.

  In 2013, Changxing County achieved full coverage of all rivers and river chiefs, and established a three-level river chief management system at county, town and village levels. The water control work here has begun to become easy.

  Qin Weijuan said that Dongwang Village uses the party member points system as the standard, and rewards party members who actively participate in river and lake care. At the same time, they use the points as one of the important reference data for party members’ year-end evaluation. strengthen.

At the same time, the "two committees" of the village came up with a new method to carry out the evaluation of the integrity index: whether the villagers participated in water conservation was included in the evaluation, and each household was scored. The score was linked to credit investigation, party membership, and housing application.

The implementation of the new system has increased the villagers’ enthusiasm for environmental protection.

  Now, the river in Dongwang Village has long maintained Class II water quality.

The beautiful village water environment and innovative measures have successively attracted three agricultural and tourism integration projects.

The “two committees” of Dongwang Village took advantage of the trend and combined project promotion with poverty alleviation and aspirational support, and established a labor service platform, which not only solved the work problems of low-income farmers, but also satisfied the project employment.

Today, the village’s annual collective economic income has gone from less than 50,000 yuan to more than 1 million yuan, and the per capita income of the villagers has reached more than 30,000 yuan.

  In 2018, Lu Qiyang was also set as Changxing's first live teaching demonstration base of Zhejiang He (Hu) Chang College.

  In a few years, great changes have taken place in both Guyang, and the collective economic income of the two villages and the living standards of the villagers have been on par.

Lishan Village has developed from "live pig breeding" to "historical culture", while Dongwang Village has transformed from a traditional village into "a good place for wetland and ecological landscape integrating leisure, visiting and culture."
