The village has contacted local enterprises through mobile assistance and gathered nearby empty-nested elderly people on a voluntary basis to form a group of elderly people. "Empty Nest House".
Here, the elderly not only eat for free, but also the produced vetch skin and vetch noodles are purchased by local companies to pay the elderly.
