I used to go to work in Zhejiang, carrying big bags and small bags alone, squeezing buses and trains, and it took more than 20 hours to get to the destination; With the whole family, young and old, return happily.
Spring comes early.
The recovering economy and resumed orders are urging migrant workers to return to work.
In Zhukou Town, Taikang County, Henan Province, a group of villagers eager to return to work, before the Lantern Festival is over, drove their private cars under the organization of the local party committee and government to form a return convoy and headed for Yiwu, Zhejiang, to work. .
The reporter followed them all the way and experienced the journey of 900 kilometers and 15 hours.
Time: 9:30 on February 4
Location: Zhukou Town Government Compound
In the early morning of February 4, six private cars with Zhejiang G license plates gathered in the government compound of Zhukou Township.
The car owners are all from rural Taikang villages and have been working in Zhejiang all year round. After years of hard work, they bought cars and drove back to their hometowns years ago.
Today, under the organization of the Zhukou Town Party Committee and the government, 15 migrant workers and 8 family members gather together to take care of each other on the way back by car.
In Zhukou Town, which has 120,000 people, nearly 50,000 migrant workers go out to work every year.
Throughout Taikang County, a total of 575,000 people went out to work last year, and their footprints spread across more than 10 provinces including Beijing, Zhejiang, and Xinjiang.
As of the 16th day of the first month, 492,000 migrant workers have returned to work.
At about 9:30, the convoy drove out of the compound, and the car of Liu Junling, a villager in Hanlou Village in the town, walked in front of the convoy.
Zhukou Town sent special personnel and special cars to escort them all the way.
The car is running on the wide and smooth highway.
Liu Junling's wife, Zheng Juanjuan, drove the car.
The reporter sat in the co-pilot position of the vehicle and looked around sideways, only to see that the car was stuffed with steamed buns, vegetables and various new year goods.
"These are gifts from relatives and friends. They taste like home. Let's take them to eat." Liu Junling sat in the back of the car and opened up the chatterbox to the reporter with a smile.
Liu Junling is not tall, with short hair, always smiling and speaking slowly.
This time, he and his wife drove the new car they just bought, took their children and mother-in-law, and went from their hometown to the construction site.
"This trip, the town government subsidized us 300 yuan in fuel expenses, and even sent people to send a car to escort us all the way, which was very touching." Liu Junling said that before that, he and his younger brother were working in Zhejiang.
Last year, my younger brother returned to Taikang to participate in welding skills training. After the Spring Festival this year, under the introduction of the local party committee and government, he has gone to work in a shipyard in Guangzhou. "Income has doubled directly. Now he can earn more than 7,000 yuan a month."
Working abroad is not easy, but mutual support is essential.
Liu Junling said that many years ago, when he first arrived in Yiwu, he was shy and shy. In order to save money, he rented a flat with three fellow villagers and shared a rice cooker for cooking. They ate boiled vegetables with some salt.
He has been working for 12 years now, and he is much more confident and calm.
"My wife and children followed. We rented a separate house with air conditioners and washing machines. Life is much better than before!" Speaking of his current life, Liu Junling is very satisfied.
Liu Junling is currently working in a courier company in Yiwu, subcontracting the sending and receiving business of two communities.
"The company has paid five insurances for me, and my family has resident medical insurance." Liu Junling said that Yiwu City cares about migrant workers, and his children can go to local public schools and can continue to study until high school.
"The national policy is good. I pay pension insurance in Yiwu, and when I return to my hometown in Henan, I can also receive the Zhejiang standard pension across provinces." Liu Junling talked eloquently.
In recent years, the development of Yiwu's e-commerce industry has led to the continuous growth of the express delivery industry. Liu Junling's salary has more than tripled in 10 years, and his monthly income is tens of thousands of yuan.
The rapid development of e-commerce has also provided his wife Zheng Juanjuan with many job opportunities such as packaging and sorting.
"Now, the money my wife and I have saved from working is increasing every year. With our own hands and hard work, life will definitely get better and better." Speaking of the future, Liu Junling's face is full of confidence.

"It's noon, I drove for three hours, everyone go to the service area to rest for a while." On the way, Cheng Xifeng, the leading cadre of Zhukou Town and the director of the Party Construction Office of the Town Party Committee, greeted everyone in the WeChat group.
A few minutes later, the vehicle drove into the Yongcheng South service area of Yanluo Expressway, Henan.
The service area is full of vehicles traveling from all over the country, and the lanterns are hung high in the parking lot, permeating the atmosphere of the New Year.
After parking the car, everyone took out their own instant noodles and got hot water. Several people gathered together and chatted while eating.
"People don't pay much attention when they are traveling, let alone people who are used to suffering outside all the year round." Xu Yajuan said with a smile after taking a bite of instant noodles.
Xu Yajuan and her husband Han Kaifang are villagers in Fengzhuang Village, Gezhuang Administrative Village, Yangmiao Township, Taikang County.
This time, she and her husband drove a private car back with the Zhukou Town migrant team.
"We went to Yiwu to work five years ago." Xu Yajuan said that before, she had no skills and low income.
In recent years, they have started e-commerce in Yiwu.
"We sell home washstands, brushes for cleaning windows and other household items online." Xu Yajuan calculated the accounts for the reporter with her fingers. "When the market is good, we can earn 100,000 yuan a month!"
In Fengzhuang Village, where the couple lives, more than 300 villagers have started e-commerce businesses in Zhejiang.
The family got rid of poverty and became rich, bought a car, and built a small building in the village.
Before the Spring Festival, Xu Yajuan's e-commerce business began to pick up.
"I was too busy a year ago. I worked until the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month. My husband and I drove back to our hometown in Taikang. There is no way, the customer is rushing us to deliver the goods! No, the 15th day of the first lunar month will not pass. , I have to go again." Xu Yajuan's tone was proud.
This time to Yiwu, Xu Yajuan also brought an "apprentice" - Li Dalei, a villager in Shanggang Village, Zhuanlou Town.
Li Dalei, 38, previously worked in a shoe factory in Taizhou, Zhejiang, and returned to his hometown in August last year.
"I stayed at home for several months and couldn't go to work. I was anxious!" Li Dalei recalled while eating noodles.
When Li Dalei was worried, in November last year, Meng Zhendong, secretary of the Disciplinary Committee of Zhuanlou Township, and several support cadres came to his home to make statistics on the employment situation of migrant workers.
Under the introduction of the support cadres, Li Dalei and more than 30 villagers from his hometown participated in the e-commerce training class in the town and learned relevant knowledge.
After the Spring Festival this year, Meng Zhendong helped Li Dalei find an e-commerce job in Yiwu through Xu Yajuan.
"Sister Yajuan helped me get in touch with everything, and I can go to work." Li Dalei said with a smile.
"Come on, let's try how the sausages I made taste like!" During the meal, Xu Yajuan and her husband Han Kaikai took out two packs of sausages from the car and distributed them to everyone one by one. By the way, they promoted the sausage processing machines sold on their own e-commerce platform. , "It's all made with my own machine. If it tastes good, you can buy one and take it home. If you want to eat it in the future, make it yourself!"
Everyone talked to each other about their work in the past few years. The atmosphere was lively and laughter rang out from time to time.
After eating, Cheng Xifeng counted the number of people, took a short rest, and the convoy set off again.

"I'm just going to take a rest for a while" "Listen to you, go to the service area to have some food, so we can hurry"... In the WeChat group, everyone responded positively, and messages popped up from time to time.
After getting off the car, the reporter went straight to the restaurant, ready to order a bowl of noodles for a good meal.
Walking to the door, I saw a minibus with Henan P license plate parked not far away.
After a cadre leading the team greeted the vehicle to park, he took out two thermos bottles from the compartment and walked into the restaurant.
The reporter stepped forward to chat, and after a chat, it was also Taikang's.
The leading cadre is Zhang Tong, secretary of the Disciplinary Committee of Yangmiao Township, Taikang County.
This time he led a team and sent more than 20 farmers from the whole township to work in Jiaxing, Zhejiang.
While talking, Zhang Tong picked up the thermos bottle and poured out the hot Hu spicy soup.
"It's delicious! Secretary Zhang is really thoughtful, and he brought us spicy soup." After taking a sip, Ge Guangbing, who got off the minibus, gave a thumbs up and praised it.
At the end of last year, Ge Guangbing participated in the garment processing skills training course held by the Taikang County Bureau of Commerce.
After the training, he participated in the large-scale job fair and "Employment Assistance Month" activity held by the county.
According to Ge Guangbing's willingness to go out to work, relevant departments contacted various parties and finally helped him find a job as a garment worker in a garment company in Tongxiang City, Jiaxing, Zhejiang.
"The monthly salary is 6,000 to 7,000 yuan, and I work 9 hours a day. I am very happy to find such a good job." Ge Guangbing had a smile on his face.

Location: East Lushan Service Area, Lishui, Jiangsu, Changshen Expressway
After departing from the Chaohu service area, the convoy encountered high-speed congestion.
Cheng Xifeng ran to the front in Gu Changhe's car and led everyone to pass slowly.
When arriving at the East Lushan service area in Lishui, Jiangsu, Changshen Expressway, Gu Changhe had to leave the convoy and leave first.
Before departure, the reporter chatted with him.
Gu Changhe was engaged in the installation of glass curtain walls in Yiwu as a small contractor.
"Before the epidemic, I brought more than 20 workers at most. However, due to the impact of the epidemic in the past three years, the work has been reduced a lot. At one time, there were only two or three workers left." Gu Changhe recalled.
"However, the situation is much better this year. Renovation projects in various places have started to move, and there must be a lot of work. Just after the Spring Festival, the contractor urged me to go back and start work." Gu Changhe gestured with his hands, "Compared to last year, I I left more than a month earlier." He said that at present, it is necessary to ask for a price of 350 yuan a day to recruit skilled glass curtain wall installation workers, and he must go back quickly to recruit workers and organize construction as soon as possible.
Cheng Xifeng lay down in front of Gu Changhe's car window, repeatedly telling him to be careful on the road.
Afterwards, Gu Changhe drove the vehicle away from the service area, stepped on the accelerator, and sped away.
Watching his car gradually go away, Cheng Xifeng felt a little pain in his waist, so he patted hard with his hands.
Along the way, Gu Changhe was worried about driving alone, so Cheng Xifeng sat in his car and took turns driving with him.
In order to prevent everyone from driving tiredly, Cheng Xifeng will remind everyone through the WeChat group on his mobile phone every time he walks a certain distance.
He smiled and said: "As long as everyone can arrive safely and smoothly, it's nothing if we work harder!"
After a short rest, the team set off on the road again.
Cheng Xifeng received a call from Shi Bangxian, secretary of the Zhukou Town Party Committee: "We must let everyone eat well on the road, supervise everyone to fasten their seat belts throughout the journey, and refrain from fatigue driving, speeding, overloading, and forced overtaking to ensure a smooth and safe return to work..."

At this time, there was light rain in the sky.
After scanning the QR code and paying, after passing the toll booth, the vehicle stopped on the side of the road. Liu Junling and others got off the car and said goodbye to the leading cadres.
"Thank you to the hometown party committee and government for their concern and concern for our migrant workers. This is a great encouragement to us. After going to work, we must work hard to add luster to our hometown." Regardless of the rain, everyone ran to Cheng Xifeng and others , took their hands, and kept expressing their gratitude to them.
Recalling the hard work of escorting the cadres all the way, Wei Duoyan, who was standing aside, couldn't hide her excitement, and quietly wiped away her tears.
