There is alfalfa in my hometown, but I have never seen it, and even if I have seen it, I have never noticed it. Ever since Zhang Qian brought alfalfa to the mainland, it has been widely planted and distributed across the country.

There are three main types of alfalfa produced in China: alfalfa, yellow alfalfa and wild alfalfa. Alfalfa has high nutritional value and has the effect of clearing the spleen and stomach, relieving large and small intestines, and reducing bladder stones. Alfalfa contains the richest vitamin K, with a high content.

Almost all vegetables. It is also rich in other vitamins such as vitamin C and B. Most of them are livestock feed.

Therefore, I pinched a handful of the tender heads and chewed them directly in my mouth. It had a sweet taste.

"Brother Li, does it taste good? Why don't you live in my sheepfold and I'll feed you every day?" Youerguli giggled, pinching the tender tips with her hands. She picked out a large plastic bag and gave it to me.

Said: "This grass is old, the young ones are hard to find, the old ones are not tasty, and the most nutritious time has passed. You can take these back to make dumplings, and I will pick the best ones for you next year."

After Joel finished his work, he took us to her house. Joel said that it has become a habit to live broadcast for a while when selling clothes. Although there are not many fans, there are some rewards and some sales.

Ethnic costumes supplement income.

Her yard is very large, with a front and back yard. There are two fruit trees and walnut trees in the front yard, and the back yard is full of apple trees and sour plum trees. We told her straight to the point that we would not have lunch at her house and asked her not to be busy cooking.

, we will invite her to a restaurant for dinner later. It seems that if we don’t come to see her, her lunch may just be naan and tea.

"It's okay to sell clothes at the bazaar. Now I don't have to buy the goods myself. My mother-in-law and neighbors can also make a few ethnic costumes at home. Anyway, my monthly income is much better than before. It's hard work, and summer is okay.

"It's too cold in the stall in winter, but I can persist because I think I can make money. Compared with setting up a stall and farming, I would rather set up a stall, because the income from farming is too little," Joel told us.

If you compare Joel with the people around her, you can see that she is better educated, so she thinks more positively, and she is very hardworking.

"Are the clothes you sell online the clothes made by your mother-in-law? How big is the demand for ethnic clothes? How much volume can family clothes be processed?" I asked Joel.

"Yes, they have all done sewing and weaving carpets before. The sales and processing volume are not large, because we think that the clothes for daily wear in the mainland may be used for collection or performance. I have a fan

She works in a photo studio, and the clothes she needs are for taking artistic photos. So I buy most of the ethnic costumes as semi-finished products, and my mother-in-law and others complete the final processing. Those that are completely handmade will only be accepted by some Xinjiang talents in the mainland.

"Joel replied.

"Brother Li, I have a friend who works in the countryside. I heard she was busy with the satellite factory recently. Would you like to meet her?" Joel asked me.

I have heard before that there are many preferential policies for opening satellite factories in Kashgar. The policies are mainly for textiles and clothing. I originally wanted to learn more about it when I had time, but then I forgot. When Joel mentioned this today, I naturally

I'd like to know more about it.

When I said this, Joel put down the teapot in his hand and made a phone call.

"Sister Wenwen, Brother Li, my friend is in the countryside. Let's go to the countryside to have dinner with her. You can just get to know each other." After making the call, Joel took us out of the house.

To our surprise, Joel's friend in the village was a young girl who seemed to have just graduated from school, named Song Xuemei. Song Xuemei gave us a brief introduction to the policies of the satellite factory and the status of enjoying national and local subsidies.

"If you are interested, you can ask the Human Resources and Social Security Bureau or the Poverty Alleviation Office for details. Both of these agencies can support satellite factories," Song Xuemei said.

"Thank you. Let me summarize what you just said. See if I understand it correctly. That is to say, I must run a labor-intensive enterprise, preferably a clothing processing factory. If it is not clothing processing, it must also produce textiles.

, shoes, hats, gloves, etc. can be classified as small factories for clothing production; they must employ more than fifty people, pay wages on time and maintain the number of workers, and if they persist for more than one year, they can enjoy all local and national subsidies." I asked.

.

I was recording and calculating just now. I roughly understand the requirements of the satellite factory. Almost all subsidies can be used to cover the cost within one year, and after one year, the factory will be completely supported by itself.

"Yes, we will directly help you build a satellite factory and teach you a usable factory. You will purchase the equipment yourself and recruit workers we recommend. Then we will provide you with personnel training, social security, taxation, product sales, talent introduction, etc.

Preferential policies, these are all contractable. If all conditions are met, it is basically equivalent to one year of zero-cost operation. However, some subsidies cannot be reviewed and distributed until one year later. Before that, you had to bear the cost yourself. Of course, banks and governments also have discounts.

You can apply for a loan." Song Xuemei replied.

These policies specifically frame the specific requirements for satellite factories and even stipulate the minimum wage for workers. The policies are good. Unfortunately, I have not been exposed to the textile and garment industry. I don’t know how much it will cost in a year, and I don’t have the money to go there.

To invest in a factory, according to what Song Xuemei said, the total of all these subsidies will be between 200,000 and 400,000 yuan a year depending on the factory. In other words, I have to invest so much money first, and then I can get it if the factory is prosperous.

Return to investment, the profit from product sales is the money earned.

I was a little surprised by Song Xuemei's conversation. She didn't look like a local girl, neither her temperament nor her accent. After asking, I found out that she was from Hubei. She went to university in Beijing and came to Kashgar on her own initiative after graduating from university.

I took a job in a county-level unit and went directly to work in the countryside for more than a year.

Although lunch was just ramen and kebabs, it was still very enjoyable. Kashgar is far more open than I thought, and there are many people from all over the world at the grassroots level. After the meal, we also planned to go back. The road in the afternoon was very crowded.

It's quiet, there are few cars and few people. Only the turtle doves are looking for food on the road. I don't know where the food on the road comes from.

Seeing that I was deep in thought, Hua Wen asked me what I was thinking about.

"I used to think that there were very few people like me who took the initiative to come here, but now it seems that there are quite a few. I don't know the real reason why Song Xuemei came here, but I admire her very much for leaving her hometown from a prosperous place to come here.

It's not easy, and I think I can find inspiration from her, which may make what I want to do more meaningful." I answered.

I am indeed considering doing something that is encouraged and guided by the national policies. The ancients paid attention to the right time, right place and people.

I have concerns about setting up a satellite factory. I plan to go back and find ways to visit some factories that have already been opened. Simply speaking, policy preferences are still risky. I am afraid that the policy will change every year or may not be fulfilled.

"First of all, it requires stable employment of at least fifty people, which is obviously a labor-intensive industry. The quality of the labor force in southern Xinjiang is not as good as that of the coastal areas, and the labor-intensive production efficiency may be much lower than that of the coastal areas. At present, it is simply restricted to

In the textile and clothing category, the production capacity along the southeast coast is enough to support the whole world, but efficiency and quality cannot be guaranteed here. What I am least optimistic about is that there is no complete clothing industry chain here, and the cost will be relatively high." I explained to Hua Wen.

my concerns.

"What are you best at?" Hua Wen did not comment on my thoughts.

"I'm good at information technology, that's my major. I think I'm half a scholar if I can write some words, and I like astronomy and geography personally." I answered.

I really don’t know what I am best at. As a person who came from a closed and backward area to Shanghai, I am far worse than tall people in big cities in many aspects. Asxs. I can be a general among the shortest.

Yes, it is definitely not possible to stand out from the crowd.

"Then you should do what you are good at, whether it is writing or opening a small restaurant or cafe. I think you should not touch the areas you are not good at, otherwise you will suffer. It is different from opening a shop.

The greater the size, the less flexibility, and the ability to resist risks may not be strong. Some intensive industries are based on long-term considerations. If several satellite factories in a township are doing the same thing, the competition will be too fierce, and besides, this

Or the general direction of the entire county or several counties. You don’t want to compete head-on with people who are familiar with this field, right?” Hua Wen told me, she was still thinking calmly, but I was indeed a little interested in setting up a satellite factory.

Hua Wen's words woke me up. Yes, the overall policy here is to serve labor transfer and labor employment. I can participate, but textile and clothing processing and sales are not familiar to me, or even very unfamiliar.

, I can’t get too hot-headed about fields that I’m not familiar with but can enter, and I have to stay calm.

"But I still want to do something, rather than just open a store in the ancient city, even though this store hasn't opened yet." I said.

"Don't worry, you've only been here a long time. After you get to know this place, I believe you will find your own direction." Hua Wen encouraged me.

I was indeed a little impetuous before, but now I am more clear-headed. I should not imagine how big a career I can achieve, and be so eager to do something noble. I am not much different from others, and I do not have any special qualities.

Compared with ordinary people's abilities and thinking, I don't even have the courage to do big things. Ordinaryness is my biggest label.

After I figured something out, my mood suddenly improved. Although the sky was full of dust, I felt very relaxed.

Southern Xinjiang is really a unique place, and I feel more and more that it exudes charm. I don’t reject this land because Yaoyao loves it. Now I feel more and more that this land is worthy of my life.
