The red water river, a hero who is known for its history as the red army's “four red waters”, is now witnessing a new “long march” in a unique “shelter” industry。
In 1935, as the central red army turned to battle with fresh water and lacked medical care, the people of the area took gold and stone from danthai stone, smug the wounds of the fertilized soldiers, and then healed them in two or three days, boiled water for the red army to drink, treat soil and water, and enhance their immunity. The story of the “golden skull red army”, which is included in the shang shui district, continues to be widely disseminated。
Ninety-one years later, journalists in the china business news have set foot on the red scene and found that the “soft grass” that saved their lives in that year has grown into a unique industry that boosts the harvest of 15,000 households and covers more than 50,000 people. Since 1972, when there were only 200 bushes of wild rock, 100,000 acres are now grown on a scale of about 7,000 tons of fresh products per year, the people of the red water have spent nearly 60 years completing an industrial march from the “save the life weed” to the “friendly pillar”。
Industrial relay for nearly 60 years
“in ancient times, the pebbles were grown only on cliff rocks, and since ancient times they were the heads of the nine great fairy herbs. “the chinese are the victors, and the red water was formerly part of sichuan, a recognized gold pebble land area.” liu wah, the chief of zhizhou zhiqin zhiqin zhiqiang, introduced the journalist that the name of the zhiqi zhiqi zhi zhiqi zhiqi zhiqi zi zhiqi zhiqi zhiqi zi zhiqi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi zi and the plume, yellow and yellow, and in the form of ancient nobles, is called gold and stone。
Over the centuries, 1300 square kilometres of red sandstone, formed hundreds of millions of years ago, have been rich in minerals, combined with 82. 51 per cent of forest cover, more than 4,000 natural waterfalls, high temperature and humidity, together with the uncontaminated springs of the red water river, constitute the only stone-growing paradise in the country。
In that year, the red army had been able to survive by using quartz, but the villagers had been unable to earn a living because of the country's wastelands, the scarcity of arable land, limited industrial development, and the lack of effective development. As a result, the water had been fresh and poor in the longer term。
It's an industry history of long marches. In 1972, there were only 200 wild seedlings in red water; in the early 1980s, the city of red water piloted artificial planting of stones, with a traditional area of less than 20 hectares; in 1997, the golden stone industries were included as a follow-up pillar of red water; in 1998, a national base for the production of quartz was established; in 2006, it was protected by geographical indications; in 2013, china received the name of the country's green eco-golden quartz; in 2014, it was certified through the national gap; in 2015, it was called the “national forest economic model”; and in 2016, it was certified by the ministry of agriculture as a product for geographical labelling of agricultural products。
“the original method of planting was to put the mud on the ground with cow dung and tie the grass to the stone, and a heavy rain washed out. Then someone tried to pin it on the phone, but it worked." according to liu wah, early and immature group training techniques, which rely on plating and planting plants, are repeated, and lead to the emergence of mature formulas that are crucified, resulting in a “cracking, self-reliance, ground-to-ground” spirit, which has become the spirit of local industrial development。
It was described that the expansion of the quartz industry had accelerated following a technological breakthrough in group training. To date, the current group of platinum pelicans has produced 100,000 m2 and produced more than 20 million crumbs per year, which is the country's largest and largest seeding base。
Moreover, it is the country's largest gold platinum plant, with almost 100,000 acres planted in its original ecology, accounting for more than 90 per cent of the country's monolithic. In terms of commodity production, 60,000 acres are now in production, with fresh strip production of over 7,000 tons, the highest in the country。
Dynamite and wildness
The rise of the industry is dependent on the addition of the new red water。
In 2013, three women entrepreneurs in guangdong travelled thousands of miles to red water. One of the founders, a descendant of chinese medicine, had cured his family's throat inflammation with a golden stone. And with fear of the chinese medicine they decided to take root here。
“we walked the mountain for two hours and saw rocks full of stone, and that shock was inexplicable.” liu wah recalled that many young men and women had left to work at the same time and that the elderly children who had stayed were living in the desert. “we thought that if we could turn the desert into a gold mountain, it would not only revive chinese medicine, but would also allow people to work in front of their homes.”
Over the past 10 years, they have been passing 12,000 acres of wasteland, of which 6,000 acres have been organically certified by the european union and china as the largest certification base in the area of gold and stone。
In the face of the low price shocks of the bazaars, they insist on “human culture”. "a year's worth of boulders, we're six to eight years old." as liu wah pointed at the stoned wall, he said, “drinking the springs, blowing through the wind, the efficacy and quality of the medicine are incomparable”
The unique tanha landscape, clean river water and high-humid climate have created unique levels of pyrochlor and sugar. “the chinese doctor has often said that `the chinese doctor died of chinese medicine', that the quality of the medicine is not good enough to be effective.” liu wah expressed their desire to restore confidence in chinese medicine through high-quality medicines。
Sample of industrial revival and the rich
"golden stone saved the red army and now it wants to save our industry." liu wah said. However, the path of industrialization is not an easy one. For a long time, due to the “pharmaceutical co-generation” policy, the plumes of the gold are sold only as medicinal products, with narrow markets and overcapacity. “in the most difficult times, the raw materials cannot be sold.” liu huatian。
The turnover occurred in 2022. During the year, the flowers and leaves of the gold quartz were included in the guizhou special food catalogue. Businesses quickly seized the opportunity to develop more than 60 products, such as stone tea, stone wine and plaster mask, using abandoned hope-based primary school buildings。
“the opening of flowers and leaves is only the first step, and we are more looking forward to the entry of the penis into the catalogue of medicinal homogenesis.” liu wah revealed that work was under way at the national level and that once approved, the industry would be in a state of emergency。
The red water municipality is confident. It is planned that, in the future, the gold boulders will drive up and down into a billion-class industrial cluster. “if the tubers enter the same source of medicine, their value will increase dozens of times after processing.” liu wah calculated a total price of $10-15 per pound for raw materials, while the value added of deep-processed products is extremely high。
The unique value of the gold quartz industry is also due to its dual decomposition of ecology and poverty。
“we're all in the mountains, and the people rent us rocks and mountains, and we ask them to plant them for us and to guard us.” according to liu hua, the entire industry involves 15,000 households and more than 50,000 people. “an old man aged 60, 70 and 80 years can run for several years while he collects leaves and raises artificial grass in the mountains with twilight”
This “enterprise-farmer” model allows for employment at home in mountainous areas that were once closed. The old, unborn dansha stone is truly transformed into a “golden mountain” for the people of the old neighborhood。
“in terms of economics, it is calculated that an acre of 3,000-square gold platinum can reach a productive period, yielding more than 10,000 yuan for the tubing and flowers and an increase of nearly 7,000 yuan per person in local growers.” the head of the rural and agricultural directorate of the city of red water explained that, to date, more than 15,000 families in the city have been involved in the development of the gold quartz industry, directly lifting 15,886 poor farmers out of poverty. To truly become the old-age industry for the farmers of the red water mountains, and to lift themselves out of poverty。
From the “save the life weed” of the red army, to the “friendly pillar” of the renewal of today's villages, today's red water is emerging from its own “stony road” on the new long march of rural renewal, based on a desire for commitment to quality and innovation。
