Luo Lian: if you are not a boss, you have to go back to your hometown to be a "shepherd" and lead the villagers to become rich together.

Luo Lian checked the situation of the villagers.

Luo Lian's sheep

Everyone has his own dream, and for the post-80s youth Luo Lian, his dream is simple and practical, he wants to engage in breeding. When he was "young", he did a lot of things, including working as an apprentice in a brick factory and learning massage with a blind master. He finally opened a furniture factory through his own efforts and became his own boss. However, because what he most wants to do is farming, so in 2012, he resolutely returned to his hometown of Neijiang from other places and began his breeding dream. Now Luo Lian's sheep breeding farm has a certain scale, but also has a certain income. In order to help the surrounding villagers get rich together, he will provide the greatest help as long as the surrounding villagers need help in raising sheep.

When I realized my dream, I gave up working as a boss in a foreign town to return home to start a business.

Luo Lian is from Dongxing Village, Shunhe Town, Dongxing District, Neijiang City. in his early years, he went out to work and did a lot of work. "he went to a brick factory as an apprentice and learned massage with a blind master." Luo Lian said that because of the accumulated experience in these jobs, he opened a furniture factory in Chenzhou, Hunan Province. The furniture factory is doing well, with an annual income of 10 to 200000 yuan. However, when the furniture factory became more and more prosperous, he handed over the factory to his relatives to take care of it, and then he resolutely returned to Neijiang with his wife and children.

"I'm coming back to do farming." Luo Lian said that farming has always been his dream, and there was no capital or technology in the past, so his idea has always been shelved in his mind, but now he relies on the money accumulated by running a furniture factory and the technology he specially went to Shandong to study. On the basis of capital and technology, Luo Lian finally put his shelved plan on the agenda and began to implement.

Luo Lian helped to check the sheep raised by the villagers.

Invest money in breeding and become a "shepherd" drilling technology

After Luo Lian returned to his hometown of Neijiang, after various investigations, he finally chose Qingliang Village, Pingtan Township, Dongxing District, Neijiang, as his breeding base, and invested 400000 yuan here to start sheep breeding. Breeding sheep pay attention to technology and breed, after long-term investigation, Luo Lian selected Boer goat as the main breed, and adopted the method of crossbreeding between Boer goat and local high-quality goat to cultivate breeds suitable for local development. "at that time, I imported 81 Boer goats from Shandong as a provenance." Luo Lian said that since then, Luo Lian has become a veritable "shepherd".

Today, in Luo Lian's sheep breeding farm, there are not only standard sheepfolds and sheephouses, but also a "playground" for breeding sheep to "keep fit." in Luo Lian's words, "even feeding sheep should be scientific." To this end, Luo Lian raised sheep, to take the temperature of the sheep, vaccination, to clean the sheepfold two or three times a day to create a comfortable environment for the sheep. In addition, Luo Lian can produce 3 to 4 Boer sheep with an average litter rate of less than two. Luo Lian said that this is a result of his special research. Luo Lian said that in order to save the cost of breeding, sheep breeders often adopt the method of one-time mating when ewes are in estrus, wait for a period of time not to get pregnant, and then mate again, which is a waste of time and the probability of conception is not high. According to his experience, when ewes are in estrus, it is best to choose three periods of morning, middle and evening, and concentrate on mating for three times. The success rate of conception will be much higher. Generally, an ewe can give birth to 3-4 babies, which is twice as high as the common method. The litter size has doubled.

As the villager's "sheep consultant", he carefully helps the villagers solve the problem.

Luo Lian's sheep breeding farm now has a certain scale, and in order to help the surrounding villagers can also benefit from the "sheep." in Qingliang Village, as long as the villagers need help in raising sheep, Luo Lian will be "duty-bound" to lend a helping hand. "if the sheep are sick, you can come to him for breeding or giving birth." A villager in Qingliang Village said. For this reason, Luo Lian got the nickname "Sheep consultant" in Qingliang Village and the surrounding villages.

"A person who is rich is not rich, but everyone who is rich is rich. Although this saying is old-fashioned, it is true." This is what Luo Lian said. Nowadays, many villagers often come to visit his sheep breeding foundation, and Luo Lian will answer many difficult problems with them and explain to them the benefits of raising sheep. Luo Lian said that his great wish now is to share his knowledge and skills with other people and drive the villagers to become rich together.
