Guizhou Cen Gong: the Entrepreneurship Legend of "getting Rich"

In Tianxing Township, Cengong County, Guizhou Province and surrounding towns, when it comes to Yang Guiwen, people who know him will give a thumbs up and call him "rich and capable person." I came here to see how "capable" the owner of this legendary story was. Through face-to-face interviews, exchanges and visits to the masses, it was found that Yang Guiwen was not so much a "rich man" as a "rich ox". How "awesome" is he? His four stories are enough to explain.

One of the "cattle" things: starting a business and raising cattle has never lost money

In 2009, Yang Guiwen used the remaining 50,000 yuan of hard work to transfer to raising cattle after failing to start a business and raise ducks. He chose to raise cattle because he thought straw was cheap. He repaired the circle, bought straw, bought 9 local buffaloes in the surrounding area, and started his second venture with 11 buffaloes in total. After a year of careful feeding, the cattle went out, although there was no loss, but did not earn as much money as imagined. He found that local buffaloes eat a lot, grow slowly, and the lack of market demand for beef is the main reason for low economic returns. If you want to make more money, you must change varieties. So he switched to local cattle. At the end of 2010, after 30 local cattle were sold, the income was not optimistic. At this time, he had the idea of going out to see.

At the end of 2011, Yang Guiwen went south to Guangdong to learn skills with all his belongings and 120,000 yuan supported by the government. A month later, he bought back 35 imported beef cattle of Simmental, Limousin and Charolais. One year of patient care, in the winter of 2012, Yang Wengui sold the first batch of 35 imported beef cattle together with several calves, earning more than 200,000 yuan. Raising imported beef cattle became a turning point for him to raise cattle and start a business, achieving his first bucket of gold through hard work and making him taste a lot of money for the first time.

36 in 2013, 45 in 2014 and 66 in 2015. Strive for "80 heads in 2016, realize independent breeding and breeding in 3-5 years, help lead the whole village to raise together, and gradually embark on the road of standardized and large-scale breeding" is Yang Guiwen's industrial development plan. Yang Guiwen is such a steady, step-by-step, not blindly seeking big "snowball" type of development so that he is invincible on the road to cattle entrepreneurship, become a cattle circle known far and near "legend."

Two cows earn 30,000 yuan

Imported beef cattle grow fast, cycle short, good sales, high efficiency, fixed sources and sales channels. Sales are often customer initiative contact, advance orders, most sold to Hunan, Guangdong, some exported to Hong Kong.

In 2012, due to poor technology and negligence, 5 of the 36 imported beef cattle raised by Yang Guiwen died, worth about 100,000 yuan, which became his lingering pain for a while. Fortunately, the beef cattle market was good this year. Excluding losses and all costs, he made 100,000 yuan net. What is even more surprising is that the last two cattle were exported to Hong Kong, earning more than 30,000 yuan net, with an average single profit of more than 15,000 yuan. So far, in the surrounding cattle circle, he has set the highest profit record for a single cow. Surprise after surprise, in 2014, he sold 20 cattle in one order, setting a record for a single order.

The third thing of "cow": self-taught ingredients take effect quickly

Yang Guiwen cattle low cost, grow fast, surrounding farmers think he must have "secret weapons", so one after another to visit and learn. To this, Yang Guiwen always does not reserve, pour bag to teach each other. Soon his "secret weapon" became an open secret.

He does have a secret weapon for raising imported beef cattle, which is his homemade feed. His feed is made of distiller's grains, beans, rapeseed cake and so on according to a certain proportion of preparation and processing, beef cattle not only like to eat, but also less sick. Feeding cattle with this feed, generally 4 months old calves can grow meat about 70 jin per month, 8 months to 24 months old cattle can grow meat about 100 jin per month. You wouldn't believe it, but he taught himself the recipe. Although his education level is not high, he has a unique talent for raising cattle, and of course he is inseparable from his diligence. At first, he relied on the superficial technology he learned in Guangdong to grope for breeding and suffered painful losses caused by poor technology. Later, he simply bought books related to raising this imported beef cattle, studied hard, and finally mastered this "secret weapon."

"Cattle" thing 4: junior high school culture into experts

After starting a business to raise cattle, with the help of his younger brother, he sent many professional books on imported beef cattle breeding, disease prevention and control from outside. Only with junior high school education, he knew most of the descriptions in the books, and some words even had to rely on dictionaries to recognize them. Word for word, paragraph for page, he studied slowly. With a "bull", he "gnawed" all the books sent back by his brother. In the process of repeated practice and summary, he not only mastered the preparation technology of feed, but also mastered the prevention and control technology of epidemic diseases, becoming a veritable "local expert".

At that time, he said, he was like practicing martial arts Qi deviation, all day holding books around the cattle pen, look at the book, look at the cow, look at the book, carefully observe, and the book said serious comparison, then the cow also stopped eating staring at himself, big eyes staring small eyes, the scene is very funny.

Yang Guiwen's current medical skills said that they had reached the level of experts without bragging at all. For sick cattle, he only needed to listen to their breathing, watch their digestion, and carefully observe them to know what disease the cattle probably had, and then prescribe the right medicine. Basically, they could recover. Villagers in distant villages and neighbors asked him to treat their cattle when they fell ill. Up to now, there has been no accident of killing cattle. Basically, the medicine has been cured. Villagers offered him money and things to thank him, and he not only declined politely, but even did not charge for medicine and treatment.

From the initial 11 cattle to today's 66 cattle, the annual output value reached more than 700,000 yuan, Yang Guiwen also led the surrounding 11 farmers to develop cattle breeding industry, solved the employment problem of 14 people, and became a well-known "rich cattle person" far and near.
