Kong Yaqin: physically disabled and strong, loves to sprinkle the world

After an ordinary rural woman with a congenital disability in her right hand became rich through self-reliance and hard work, she helped drive the disabled in more than a dozen surrounding villages to become rich together, winning the praise of the villagers. She is Kong Yaqin, a villager from Nanlou Village, Chang'an Town, Gaocheng District, Shijiazhuang City.

On May 17, when the author saw Kong Yaqin in Nanlou Village, she was busy in the pigsty. "during this period of time, I have built another pigsty and installed a new batch of environmental protection equipment, which will soon be put into use. By then, the scale of the co-operative will be even larger. " Kong Yaqin said, with a smile on his face.

As a disabled person, Kong Yaqin's stress and pain in the process of starting a business can be imagined. After graduating from Shijiazhuang Technical Secondary School of Chinese Medicine in 2003, Kong Yaqin hopes to contribute to the society with his own hands. However, she ran up against a brick wall when looking for a job and was rejected by four or five units on the grounds of physical disability. In this regard, she is not discouraged, but actively looking for opportunities to start her own business.

After Kong Yaqin and Zhang Huwei got married in 2006, they decided to raise pigs based on their husband's working experience in a pig farm. As a result, the couple pooled 20,000 yuan and bought more than ten little pigs. Everything is difficult at the beginning, due to the two people's breeding skills failed, two years down heavy losses, not only did not earn money, but also owed tens of thousands of yuan of foreign debt. At this time, coincidentally, the local disabled Persons' Federation held a training course on aquaculture technology, and Kong Yaqin, who did not admit defeat, participated in the technical training. She also asked the disabled Persons' Federation for help. The disabled Persons' Federation contacted Li Fei, an expert from Hebei Agricultural University, to guide her in breeding techniques. Soon, Kong Yaqin learned the breeding technology and reintroduced a batch of piglets. This time, under the careful care of the two, the piglets grew well and made a profit the next year and paid off the debt.

In 2012, Kong Yaqin's pig farm has developed into a large-scale pig farm covering an area of 10 mu and fattening more than 1000 pigs a year. Kong Yaqin's initial success has strengthened Kong Yaqin's determination to develop. In June 2013, Kong Yaqin invested 2.4 million yuan to set up Huwei breeding Co., Ltd., and set up Ruyue breeding professional cooperative in the same year, with an annual output value of 8 million yuan and 2000 fattening pigs.

During the years when the pig farm became bigger and stronger, Kong Yaqin paid close attention to the families of the poor and disabled nearby. When she became rich, she actively arranged for the disabled to work in her own farm, and provided free technical assistance to the disabled who wanted to raise them, and recycled fattening pigs. "I am disabled, and I understand the difficulties of disabled people better than others," she said. I want to rely on my own strength to make more families with disabilities rich! "

Zhang Lijin, 50, is a deaf-mute wandering to Nanlou Village. One day in June 2010, Zhang Lijin knocked on the door of Kong Yaqin's house and wanted to beg for a meal. The warm-hearted Kong Yaqin let him into the house and served steaming food. Seeing that Zhang Lijin, who is also disabled, was helpless, Kong Yaqin wanted to take him in to work in his own farm. Zhang Lijin immediately leaned down gratefully to kowtow to Kong Yaqin, who was tightly held by Kong Yaqin. Five years have passed in the blink of an eye, and now Zhang Lijin is ruddy and neatly dressed. he gestures that he will spend his whole life to repay Kong Yaqin and society.

Dong Yonghua, a 45-year-old from Beilou Village, cannot go out to work because he is disabled in his right leg due to a car accident. Dong Yonghua and his lover raise pigs at home. Because they don't know the technology, they pay for raising pigs year after year. By chance, Dong Yonghua told Kong Yaqin about his difficulties. Since then, Kong Yaqin has come to Dong Yonghua's home every week to guide technology. At the same time, Kong Yaqin also provided Dong Yonghua with one-stop services from piglets, feed to epidemic prevention, and contacted reputable and strong pig acquisition enterprises for him. With the strong help of Kong Yaqin, over the past three years, Dong Yonghua's breeding scale has increased from more than 100 to more than 500, and the net benefit has increased fivefold.

At present, Kong Yaqin's cooperative has absorbed more than 100 members, including 60 households and more than 80 disabled people, 13 farmers like Dong Yonghua who are engaged in farming at home, and more than 10 villages in the surrounding towns of Xing'an, Chang'an and Jinzhou.

In accordance with the idea of "expanding and strengthening enterprises and serving the broad masses of disabled people," Kong Yaqin also implemented the management and management model of "companies plus farmers," that is, cooperatives provide farmers with unified technology, piglets, feed, epidemic prevention, and unified product recycling. Kong Yaqin made a telephone return visit every day and carried out on-site inspection from time to time, which effectively ensured the product quality and received good economic and social benefits.

In 2013, through the local disabled Persons' Federation and other contacts, Kong Yaqin hired an expert from the Animal Husbandry Research Institute of Hebei Agricultural University to guide, strictly implement pollution-free breeding, and effectively improve the level of standardized breeding. "We do not use any antibiotics in the breeding process, and are preparing to apply for the trademark'no anti-meat', so that the majority of consumers can eat healthy and assured 'conscience meat'." Kong Yaqin is full of confidence in the future. ? (our reporter Xia Lei, correspondent Peng Hui)
