Binzhou, Dazhong.com, June 1 (Reporter Wang Yaming) Intangible cultural heritage is not only a culture, but also a folk skill. Use the inheritance and development of these skills to increase farmers' income. Sun Jinhua, Sanhehu Town, Bincheng District, Binzhou City, is such a skilled non-legacy heir. On June 1, at the Sanhehu Town Party Building Comprehensive Service Center, the national mainstream media interview group of "Scientific Development looking at Bincheng" approached the non-legacy heir to visit her story of letting folk craftsmanship create wealth.

Sun Jinhua, 55, is the heir of Binzhou cloth tiger shoes folk handicrafts. In rural Binzhou, there are many women who can do a good job of sewing. Sun Jinhua has been insisting on organizing these village "skillful hands" and using old skills to earn more family income over the past two years.

In 2015, Sun Jinhua set up a handicraft workshop in Sanhehu Town, Binzhou City, and recruited apprentices in order to inherit handmade cloth shoes, hand-made cotton-padded suits, and handmade quilts. On the basis of inheriting this craft, drive rural women to use "craftsmanship" to earn more income for their families. At present, Sun Jinhua has recruited eight apprentices to make handicrafts such as handmade thousand-bottom cloth shoes, warm baby cotton-padded clothes sets and homesick quilts in their spare time, and hang these handicrafts for sale in online stores and accept customization from customers.

Because the handicrafts produced by Mrs. Zhu Handicraft Workshop not only retain the traditional appearance but also integrate the innovation of contemporary elements with its comfortable sense of wearing and modeling, it is deeply loved by the majority of customers. Nowadays, the cloth tiger shoes, warm baby cotton-padded suit sets and handmade quilts produced by Mrs. Zhu's handicraft workshop are exported to Hong Kong, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and other cities. Driven by Sun Jinhua, not only can he have an annual income of 40,000 to 50,000 yuan, but also eight apprentices earn an annual income of 10,000 to 20,000. While inheriting and developing the intangible cultural heritage, it also drives farmers to increase their income and become rich, so that folk craftsmanship creates wealth.

Through productive protection, old objects and craftsmanship have changed from sleeping and sealed rural memories to new carriers to get rid of poverty. The living inheritance of non-heritage not only makes ordinary farmers earn money by art, but also makes the folk culture which originally needs to be protected have the vitality of self-sublimation.
