Chaoyang County, Liaoning Province: migrant workers return home to start a business as a "chicken commander"

Every morning at dawn, get up, wash your face with cold water, and then check the henhouse to mix and feed the chickens. This pace of life is normal for Wang Yabin, who lives in Nandayingzi Village, Liucheng Town, Chaoyang County, Chaoyang City, Liaoning Province.

He, who had been drifting and worked outside, has now become a "chicken commander". Under his meticulous breeding, 3000 red jade chickens are about to come out of the fence.

"this is my first year of raising chickens. The right is to accumulate experience, and I want to make it even bigger in the future." Wang Yabin said.

Contracted woodland to cultivate migrant workers to start a business on their doorstep

Before this year, Wang Yabin was still a migrant worker sweating from one construction site to another in the city, leaving his hometown to earn money by working alone. Only during the Spring Festival construction site shutdown could he go home and have a rest every year. However, affected by the current situation of the real estate industry, at the beginning of this year, many construction sites no longer recruited a large number of workers, which made him so worried that he did not know what to do. His family could only scrape by a few acres of land, but his children were still in college. What to do with the high tuition fees and living expenses every year, he began to wonder if he could find another way to get rich.

"by chance, I learned that a friend of mine raised chickens in Jinzhou. He told me that this way might get rich. Let me give it a try. He provided me with chicks and technology." Wang Yabin recalled that for this reason, he specially went to the surrounding market to investigate and found that raising chickens with small investment and quick returns might really make money.

So, with the mentality of trying, after Wang Yabin discussed with his lover, the two took out 100000 yuan from their savings for many years. They first contracted a piece of woodland near the village, where they relied on mountains and water, with excellent water quality and good ecological environment. It is an excellent location for raising chickens. After that, he made great efforts to build the chicken house, bought all the equipment, and ordered a batch of chicks from his friends.

"A total of 3000 chickens were raised, all of them red jade chickens. This kind of chicken has strong disease resistance and good meat quality." Wang Yabin said that over the past six months, as a "layman" of raising chickens, he and his wife have made a lot of painstaking efforts in the chicken farm. In order to save costs, they do everything themselves: "if you don't understand anything, just call my friend and ask. Or search the Internet for this knowledge. This is also a learning process. Fortunately, none of my chickens are sick and look up very well."

3000 red jade chickens will come out to hope to increase the scale of raising chickens.

Wang Yabin said that his chickens have always been grown by feeding corn and bean cakes. "the head" is slightly smaller than the fed chickens, but the meat is fresh and tender. On his father's birthday a few days ago, he took a home-raised red jade chicken home to entertain the guests, and when everyone tried it, they all praised the taste of the chicken.

With the affirmation of his family, Wang Yabin increased his confidence. He told the reporter that the 3000 red jade chickens would soon be out of the column. Some time ago, a slaughterhouse looked for him, but he did not want to sell them. He said that he was going to sell these chickens at a low price to customers who like to eat chicken. One of them is about 40 or 50 yuan, which is right to give everyone a taste: "I have accumulated a year's experience of my own. If it works well this year," I'm going to keep raising it. "

Wang Yabin said that it will be a trend for migrant workers to return home to start a business in the future, and he hopes that his story of raising chickens will bring confidence and motivation to more migrant workers who are working for a living. I also hope that the government can provide them with more policy assistance in this regard.

"only through the experience of working outside can I know that every day I work from morning till night, tired and thinking about my family." Wang Yabin said that now, after a busy day, he can get home at night, have a good reunion dinner with his family and get a good night's sleep. this is something he could not have expected before: "my next goal is to expand the scale of the chicken farm." let more people eat my chicken.
