Li Zhicai: the Golden Phoenix in Wutong Village

"I haven't been home in the county since I moved in in 2013. The chicken must be vaccinated five to seven days after it comes out of its shell. Once every seven days, one missed shot will be over. During this period, I get up twice a night to warm the henhouse and check whether the temperature is right. If the temperature is high, the window should be opened and the window should be closed if it is low. " On April 12, Li Zhicai, chairman of the Dafa Ecological farming Farmers' Professional Cooperative in Qinglong County, Guizhou Province, said with a smile to the China Women's Daily reporter.

"people hear chickens dancing. We get up earlier than chickens and go to bed later than chickens." Several losses made Li Zhicai remember that she was still scared, so that she guarded the chicken coop and looked at the chickens every day, so that she could rest assured.

I went to work in Guangzhou before finishing the third year of junior high school. However, life in Guangzhou was not satisfactory. Two years later, I returned to my hometown and met my husband Xu Hailong. After the Spring Festival, the two went to work in an incubator in Guiyang.

"A year later, we got married and spent all the money we earned from working." Li Zhicai said with a smile.

In order to make ends meet, Li Zhicai borrowed money from his mother and bought 1600 chicken seedlings. From then on, Li Zhicai and her husband began to raise their own chickens to get rich.

In order to create better living conditions for their children, Li Zhicai and her husband came to Qinglong County. Sell wholesale vegetables and go to work in the supermarket. After earning some money, the couple plan to raise chickens. However, the freezing weather that swept the southwest in 2008 cost the couple a penny.

It was not until the second half of last year that Li Zhicai's chicken farm began to improve.

"Why are the co-operatives built in the Wutong Village Group?" Li Zhicai's answer was a little unexpected, "the scenery is beautiful here." The environment is good, and the chicken grows well. "

"although Guangzhao Town has beautiful mountains and rivers, farmers' economic awareness is poor and economic development lags behind. It is a typical agricultural and ethnic minority poor town." Deng Ruilan, mayor of Guangzhao Town, told China Women's Daily that Li Zhicai and his wife not only want to get rich themselves, but also lead 54 families in need nearby to get rich together.

"54 families in need, each with 200,300 chickens. Chicken saplings are sold to others for 10 yuan each, and families in need are not charged a penny. this is more than 100,000 yuan. " Xie Yihui, president of the Qinglong County Women's Federation, told China Women's Daily that not only that, when the chickens grew up, she was also responsible for recycling, and all the money she sold was given to families in need, earning nothing.

To Cen Kamei, Li Zhicai also sent corn regularly, "We can't starve the chicken to death."

"when this cooperative was built, the town not only gave 50, 000 yuan in support, but also gave a discount loan of 150000 yuan, and also helped us contact major clients and signed a contract of 600000 yuan." Li Zhicai smiles with seriousness. With so much help from the government, it is only natural for me to help these dozens of families in need.
