is located in Dongcai Village, Huangshan Town, surrounded by Wuhe River and flower fields. Trees surround the village, water is full of ponds, and the main roads of the villages are spotless. As we approached, several unique and beautiful houses in the village were constantly coming in and out, and there were three or two tourists sitting in the yard to enjoy the sun. This is where the "net celebrity" B&B is located in Huangshan Town.

From run-down farm houses to modern and fashionable rural communities, the "homestay economy" has made Dongcai Village more and more beautiful, while also introducing projects, talents and new development concepts into the village for the villagers They have brought new opportunities to get rich and increase income, and become a bright start to rural revitalization.
revitalizing resources and awakening poor old villages
Dongcai Village, which is close to the Wuhe Wetland Tourist Area, has appeared as a "blank" on the industrial planning map of Huangshan Town for a long time. Dilapidated and deserted, the per capita annual income is less than 1,000 yuan.
To develop rural tourism, a consensus was reached at the village and township levels from the very beginning. "Facing Yihe River and backing Wuhe River, we have inherent advantages." Lin Maojie, the party secretary of Dongcaicun Village, is full of confidence.
"We have always wanted to make use of the unique natural environment of the village as the tertiary industry for eco-tourism, but we have not found a suitable path." said Liu Peng, the mayor of Huangshan Town. Last year Lin Maojie and the village’s first secretary Fan Yunlong proposed to develop rural tourism. The idea of integrating the village to create a rural community is "a snap fit" with the idea of the town.
In order to let the good ideas land as soon as possible, Huangshan Town combined with the "beautiful village" project and used more than 6 million yuan of funds to add street lights, repair roads, and plant seedlings in Dongcai Village. “In the past few years, the roads were blocked and the fields were abandoned and overgrown with weeds.” Lin Maojie said that in recent years, problems such as roads and safe drinking water have been gradually solved. As the prototype of the project continues to emerge, the fate of the old houses in the village is also changing.
capital injection activates a pool of spring water.
To transform the idle old house into a homestay, the villagers have made difficulties, "The houses are old houses, and the feelings are deep. After the renovation, you will leave in a few years, but our house will not Is it spoiled?”
said that the policy was reasonable, and at the same time it attracted more social capital injection. The government hired professional institutions to plan and design, and attracted enterprise management and other measures finally gave the villagers peace of mind. “The rent of villagers’ houses is 5,000 yuan a year, and there is a 1,000 yuan subsidy for the annual land transfer. Even if the villagers do nothing for a year, they will still have 6,000 yuan in income. We just want to build with the villagers. To become a community of interests." said Li Jingyi, manager of the operation department of Shandong Xiangyu Cultural Tourism Development Co., Ltd.
At present, 6 sets of B&B model rooms, 360-degree transparent starry sky bubble houses, large viewing platforms along the river, family farming and pastures, etc. have all begun operations. Blue tiles and white walls, stone courtyard dams, characteristic attractions, and smart facilities. All attracted a large number of tourists to come to experience. Soon after opening, the average income of relevant villagers increased by 30,000 to 40,000 yuan.
activation elements empower rural revitalization
B&B has brought real changes to Dongcai Village. The improvement of the village's appearance allows people to find the simplicity and kindness of "returning to nature"; the sewage pipes and telephone poles in the village Beautification, new energy transformation and other work have been completed or gradually advanced, and the environment of the whole village is getting better and better. The quiet village where it was rare to see young people has also become more vibrant because of the entrance of the homestay.
In a house that has been transformed into a bed and breakfast, the owner of the farm house can also choose to take on part of the bed and breakfast reception work while obtaining rental income. "The original owner or the villagers of the village are responsible for the most humane "butler" job in the homestay. Tourists can experience the local culture here. Our "butler 2" is responsible for connecting various services and providing personalized services for tourists under the premise of standardization." Lin Maojie said.
This year, villager Feng Yunsong also opened the first farmhouse in the village. According to him, when business is good, a day's turnover can reach more than one thousand yuan, so that when you calculate it, you can earn more than 100,000 yuan a year.
In Lin Maojie's eyes, the ideal state is that all villagers become participants in rural tourism. Whether it is to provide tourists with a bottle of water or sell a special product, it is a "bonus" of the shared hotel economy.
B&B alone cannot take on the important task of rural revitalization. This year, with the homestay platform as a starting point, the Tianyuan community project in Dongcai Village has fallen on a larger plan.Luozhuang District will include this project as a key project and will provide more high-quality resources for support.
"The elements should follow the project, and the limited resources should be allocated rationally, so that the development projects and some good projects can be fully guaranteed, and the rural revitalization will enter the fast lane." Fan, Director of the Agriculture and Rural Bureau of Luozhuang District Jinhua is full of expectations for the future, "I believe that the development momentum of our village in Luozhuang will become more and more fierce, and the people are all sprinting for a full well-off life!"
