Invigorating Willows, Getting Rid of Poverty and Getting Rich

In the village of Luzhuang, located in Guzhi Town, Xuanning County, Xuzhou, there's a young man who has become more than just a "village official." He is known as the "red" college student village official, a title that reflects not only his educational background but also his deep commitment to improving the lives of the villagers. His name is Xu Qianli, and he has quickly earned the respect and admiration of the local community. When Xu Qianli first arrived at Luzhuang Village, he was shocked by its economic backwardness. The village lacked basic infrastructure—there was no electricity in the village office, and some buildings were in disrepair, with broken floors and even bat droppings on the beams. In a province like Jiangsu, which is generally well-developed, such conditions were shocking. At first, his passion for serving the people was tempered by reality. But instead of being discouraged, he embraced the challenge with determination. As an assistant to the village head, he believed that the greater the challenges, the more one could prove their value. This mindset drove him to take action. He spent time visiting families, understanding their needs, and exploring ways to bring change. What he discovered was both surprising and promising: the villagers had a unique skill in willow weaving, but they worked individually without any coordination. Xu Qianli saw an opportunity. He organized a cooperative, setting up a small workshop where villagers could work together to produce wicker baskets and fruit containers. By adopting a collective sales model, they were able to reduce costs, expand their market, and attract foreign buyers. These products became highly sought after, turning into real "tickets" for income. The success of the "Liu Bian Economy" (Willow Weaving Economy) gave Xu Qianli great encouragement. His goal was simple yet powerful: to help the villagers escape poverty and build a better life. Today, when you walk through Luzhuang, you see every household filled with beautifully crafted wicker baskets. These items are sold in multiple cities, becoming a significant source of income for the villagers. Uncle Murakami, a local villager, proudly says, "That university student really knows what he's doing." Beyond the willow economy, Xu Qianli also led efforts in lobster farming and organized lectures on legal knowledge, helping improve both material and spiritual living standards. Because of his contributions, Xu Qianli is now affectionately called the "Lobster Village Official." His story is a testament to how one person’s dedication can transform an entire community.
