[Environmental sound] This is my pasture, blue sky and white clouds, grassland sheep.

I quit my job with a monthly income of 20,000, left the bustling and lively Shanghai, and came here.

I was still doing a good job in Shanghai more than a month ago, and the boss appreciates the respect of my colleagues.

But soon I resigned again.

Because of the pressure at work, I started to have frequent headaches, which can only be relieved by taking medicine.

I used to come to (Inner Mongolia) for business trips. I saw the vast grasslands, delicious lamb, and simple herders. I thought about setting up a ranch if I became rich, but I didn’t have the money and I didn’t know how long it would be in the future, so just now I'm coming to the grassland.

  [Explanation] The person speaking in front of him is Chen Ke, a white-collar worker born in the 90s who was still working in Shanghai last month. In mid-July 2021, he decided to change his way of living and leave Shanghai to live a nomadic life in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. .

  Chen Ke, who was originally from Henan, graduated from a key university and went to work in Thailand. After working hard in Shanghai for 5 years, he decided to give up everything and go "herding sheep." He also struggled for a long time, but at this moment Chen Ke told reporters that he has no regrets.

  [Explanation] Chen Ke was engaged in sports event planning in Shanghai, but at the end of 2019, the sudden new crown pneumonia epidemic stopped all sports events across the country, which also forced Chen Ke to wait for work. Chen Ke even delivered takeaways while waiting for work. Make a living.

After returning to work, high-intensity mental work often caused him unbearable headaches, and he could only be relieved by taking medicine.

At this time, Chen Ke decided to put aside everything and go to the grassland and pursue a new life he yearned for.

  When I was in Shanghai, I was a part-time job, and then I was here to do what I wanted to do. This gave me a sense of belonging.

  [Explanation] Packing luggage and leaving Shanghai, Chen Ke drove through Baotou, Hohhot, Inner Mongolia and other places, all the way east looking for the pasture he yearned for.

When we walked to the Xilin Gol Ulagai management area, the car got stuck in the mud. A nearby Mongolian elder brother used his own car to rescue his pickup truck without distress. Chen Ke was moved by the simplicity and enthusiasm of the herders.

Later, he lived not far away and rented a small pasture of 300 acres of his own.

  (Grassland) The first key word given to me is vastness, that is, I prefer the feeling of vastness, including Xilin Gol where I came, and the grassland in Wulagai. I came here by car. , And after I drove to this place at that time, I felt that this place is especially the kind of feeling I want.

  [Explanation] Chen Ke told reporters that moving out of the city and coming to the grassland is not to "live in seclusion", but to start a new business in this pasture.

At present, Chen Ke has bought 11 sheep from the landlord. There are also a camel and two shepherd dogs in the ranch.

In the next step, he plans to build an ecological farm pasture.

  The first thought is to raise some of each animal, such as raising some sheep, then raising some horses, then camels, raising some small animals, just to enrich this place, it is equivalent to live broadcast e-commerce, and then add tourism and then Adding breeding, and in this case, it is convenient to make a grassland behind it, which can be regarded as a place for in-depth experience tour, and I want to make this pasture of my own a small and beautiful place.
