College students go back to their hometown to grow grapes and lose 10 kilograms to find a way out.

Although starting a business is very busy and tired, I enjoy it. Over the past three years, customers have grown from scratch, from few to many, and he has worked hard to water his "entrepreneurial dream" with hard sweat.

When more and more college graduates set their sights on the big cities, a college graduate in Yilong set his sights on the vast rural world and reaped fruitful fruits, which has become a famous local novelty.

Start your own business and give up urban life and go back to your hometown to grow grapes

On September 10, the reporter came to Zhang Xiaolin's vineyard in Anxi Chao Village, Xinzheng Town. Looking ahead, there were clusters of ripe grapes on rows of grape trellis that made people salivating. Several tourists were picking grapes and enjoying the idyllic fun. When the reporter first saw the thin and handsome man with glasses, he felt that he did not look like a man who could grow grapes. Zhang Xiaolin, 27, is from Anxi Chao Village, Xinzheng Town. After graduating from Southwest University of Petroleum in 2011, he worked in Chengdu for some time and finally chose to go back to his hometown to grow grapes with his parents. His vineyard is called "Sanyuan concentric vineyard", which is located at the bridgehead of Anxi Chao Village, which is about 12 kilometers away from Yilongxin County.

Zhang Xiaolin told the reporter: "I majored in finance at school. After graduation, I worked in Chengdu for a period of time. I felt that this was not the life I wanted. I wanted to go back to my hometown to start my own planting." At first, my idea was strongly opposed by my parents. They worked hard for me to go to college in the hope that I could have a stable and decent job. Large investment in growing grapes, long cycle, slow results, and a serious shortage of start-up capital are all the things parents are most worried about. "

However, Zhang Xiaolin recognized the road of planting and worked for his parents every day, which was finally recognized by his parents and supported by the whole family. After repeated weighing, he decided to invest 100000 yuan in three-dimensional cultivation of grapes. In 2014, the vineyard ushered in its first harvest, with a yield of about 1500 kilograms per mu and an income of 160000 yuan. He earned another 170000 yuan in 2015, which made Zhang Xiaolin and his family more hopeful about the future.

The grape fruit is 10 kilograms thinner to find a solution.

Zhang Xiaolin told reporters that grape sales were particularly good the year before last and last year. Many tourists from neighboring counties (cities), such as Meizhong, Pengan, Yingshan, and the south, drove to his vineyard to buy grapes, and some people bought many boxes to send to relatives and friends in Guangzhou, Chongqing, and other places, and his family's grape fame is becoming more and more famous. This year, the number of grapes hanging fruit is much higher than in previous years, and the output is very high, but the income is not the best. Because the hot weather in July and August this year cracked the good-growing grapes, he could not find an effective solution at once. Many grapes dried on the vines, and the income was correspondingly reduced if they did not look good.

"the grapes planted this year are mainly picked by citizens and seldom exported, but the cracked grapes made our whole family very anxious, and my mother cried several times in the vineyard. I search the Internet for information every day, trying to find a solution as soon as possible. " Zhang Xiaolin told reporters.

"the child worked so hard for the vineyard that he was tanned and his weight dropped from 60 kilograms to 50 kilograms. The family invested more than 300,000 yuan in three years. This year, the grapes are very good, and they are all full of joy. Who knows the grapes have cracked since July. I feel distressed when I look at the children who are so tired, and when I look at the grapes with cracked fruit, I feel sad too! " Zhang Xiaolin's mother, Tan Guangying, said. Zhang Xiaolin comforted her: "this is our mismanagement, this problem will be solved." Next year, I want to change to grow rose grape, learn well in management technology, and consult more experts in this field. I believe the harvest next year will be even better! "

Hope that small grapes will become a big industry in the future.

It is understood that at present, in addition to growing grapes, they also brew their own wine. Zhang Xiaolin said: "since you choose to stay away from the hustle and bustle of the city, you should feel at ease to run your own business in the countryside." He wants to make the vineyard bigger and stronger and make it an industry, and now is the time to start. In addition to growing grapes, he also plans to raise native chickens and grow vegetables in the vineyard. Raising chickens can clean up weeds, eliminate some pests in the process of grape growth, and increase additional income, killing two birds with one stone. If conditions permit, he also wants to get some loans to expand the size of the vineyard and improve the surrounding environment.

Today, Zhang Xiaolin has become a famous "college student farmer" in the village. After 3 years of development, its vineyard has expanded from more than 30 mu to more than 50 mu. The villagers who did not understand him also gave him a thumbs-up.

Zhang Xiaolin said that the reason why he was able to return to his hometown to grow grapes was inseparable from the strong support of his wife Zhao Cuirong. Zhao Cuirong is from Guangyuan. She and Zhang Xiaolin met in university. From acquaintance, acquaintance to love, Zhao Cuirong went with him to Anxi Chao Village, Xinzheng Town, despite her parents' opposition, and the two finally got married. Now, the two have a baby of more than one year old.

When he returns to his hometown to start a business, Zhang Xiaolin can accompany his parents and have a stable income. He is full of hope for his future life.
