Chapter 451: Rebuilding Glory, a New Era for Cuigu Village

With the gradual advancement of Cui Gu Village's handicraft innovation and agricultural product deep processing projects, this small mountain village in the 1960s ushered in new development opportunities while also facing new challenges.

Wang Dashan knows very well that if he wants Cuigu Village to stand out in the fierce market competition, he must continuously improve product quality and brand influence.

In the autumn of that year, the weather was clear and cool, the fields in the village were golden, and the joy of harvest filled the air.

Wang Dashan came to the demonstration field of the agricultural product planting alliance. Looking at the heavy rice ears and plump fruits, he felt extremely gratified.

At this time, one of the members of the alliance, Village Chief Zhao from the neighboring village, also came to the field.

When he saw Wang Dashan, he came up to him with a smile and said, "Secretary Wang, this year's harvest is really great, thanks to the establishment of our alliance and the application of new technologies."

Wang Dashan also smiled and said: "Village Chief Zhao, this is the result of everyone's joint efforts. However, we cannot be satisfied with this. We must continue to improve the quality of agricultural products and build our own brand."

Village Chief Zhao frowned and said doubtfully, "Secretary Wang, building a brand is not an easy task. How can a small village like ours have so many resources and capabilities to do this?"

Wang Dashan nodded and said, "Village Chief Zhao, you are right. But we can integrate resources and concentrate our efforts on major tasks. I plan to register a unified agricultural product brand, put this brand on all the agricultural products of our alliance, and then sell them through a unified sales channel. This will not only increase the popularity of the products, but also increase the added value of the products."

Village Chief Zhao's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said, "Secretary Wang, your idea is great. But how should we name this brand? And how should we establish sales channels?"

Wang Dashan pondered for a moment and said, "As for the brand name, I think it should be 'Cui Gu Piao Xiang', which means that the agricultural products around our Cui Gu Village are fragrant and of high quality. In terms of sales channels, we can cooperate with supermarkets and farmers' markets in the city, or sell through e-commerce platforms. In addition, we can also hold some agricultural product exhibitions to showcase our products and increase brand awareness."

Village Chief Zhao nodded and said, "Secretary Wang, you are very thoughtful. We will definitely support your work with all our strength."

After leaving the demonstration field, Wang Dashan came to the handicraft processing factory.

At this time, workers are making handicrafts according to the new design.

When Wang Dashan saw Sister Zhang working on an embroidery piece based on a revolutionary story, his eyes lit up.

He walked up to her, carefully observed the work, and said, "Sister Zhang, your work is really great. Presenting the revolutionary story through embroidery has both educational significance and artistic value."

Sister Zhang smiled and said, "Secretary Wang, this is all thanks to the guidance of the designer you hired. The works we are making now are indeed more creative and attractive than before."

Wang Dashan nodded and said, "Sister Zhang, we must continue to work hard and continuously launch new works. I plan to hold a handicraft exhibition in the city to promote our village's handicrafts to a wider market."

After hearing this, Sister Zhang said with some concern: "Secretary Wang, it's not cheap to hold an exhibition in the city. Besides, we don't know if we can attract enough visitors and buyers."

Wang Dashan smiled and said, "Sister Zhang, you don't have to worry about this. As for the expenses, we can raise part of it through the village, and then seek some support from higher authorities and sponsorship from companies. As for publicity, we can promote it in advance in newspapers, radio stations and other media in the city to attract more people to visit the exhibition."

Sister Zhang listened, nodded, and said, "Secretary Wang, you are right. We should have confidence to promote our handicrafts."

After returning to the village office, Wang Dashan immediately started to get busy.

On the one hand, he organized village cadres and villagers to raise funds for holding agricultural product fairs and handicraft exhibitions. On the other hand, he actively contacted the media and businesses in the city to win their support and sponsorship.

After a period of hard work, the preparations for the agricultural products fair and handicraft exhibition are basically ready.

Wang Dashan brought the village cadres and villagers to the city with great expectations.

At the agricultural products exhibition, the "Cui Gu Piao Xiang" brand agricultural products attracted the attention of many merchants and consumers as soon as they were unveiled.

The fresh fruits and vegetables, high-quality grains and meats are highly praised by people.

A supermarket purchasing manager walked up to Wang Dashan and said, "Secretary Wang, the quality of your agricultural products is really great. Our supermarket is willing to establish a long-term cooperative relationship with you and purchase a large amount of your products."

Wang Dashan heard this and said happily: "Thank you very much, Manager. We will definitely ensure the quality and supply of our products to satisfy you."

Meanwhile, the handicraft exhibition was also a huge success.

The exquisite embroidery, bamboo weaving and other handicrafts are an eye-opener for visitors.

Many people placed orders to purchase, and some businesses expressed their willingness to establish cooperative relationships with the village's handicraft processing factories.

A handicraft dealer from another place found Wang Dashan and said, "Secretary Wang, the handicrafts in your village are so unique. I want to be your agent and promote them to our local market."

Wang Dashan listened and said with a smile: "You are welcome to cooperate with us. We will definitely provide high-quality products and services."

After the trade fair and exhibition, Wang Dashan returned to the village with a lot of gains.

When the villagers heard about the success achieved in the city, they cheered and were excited.

Wang Dashan said excitedly at the villagers' meeting: "Fellow villagers, this trade fair and exhibition in the city was very successful. Our agricultural products and handicrafts have been widely recognized and welcomed. This is the result of everyone's joint efforts and a new starting point for the development of our Cuigu Village."

After hearing this, the villagers applauded in agreement.

Everyone is full of confidence and believes that under the leadership of Wang Dashan, the future of Cui Gu Village will definitely be better.

However, just as Cui Gu Village was developing rapidly, a sudden natural disaster broke the tranquility of the village.

That winter, a rare heavy snowfall hit Cuigu Village, causing serious damage to the village’s agricultural production and infrastructure.

Wang Dashan immediately organized the villagers to carry out disaster prevention and relief work.

He led the village cadres to visit the villagers door to door to check on their disaster situation and help them solve practical difficulties.

In a farmland crushed by heavy snow, Wang Dashan looked at the destroyed crops with a heavy heart.

At this time, Xiao Sun and several other young farmers also came to the fields.

Xiao Sun said somewhat frustratedly: "Secretary Wang, this snow is too heavy. Our crops have been destroyed. This year's losses are not small."

Wang Dashan patted Xiao Sun on the shoulder and said, "Xiao Sun, don't lose heart. Natural disasters are inevitable, but we cannot be defeated by difficulties. We must organize forces as soon as possible to repair the damaged farmland and infrastructure and try to minimize the losses."

Xiao Sun listened, nodded, and said, "Secretary Wang, we listen to you. We will work hard to restore the village to its original state."

Under the leadership of Wang Dashan, the villagers worked together and after a period of hard work, they finally overcame the natural disaster and resumed production and life.

During the Spring Festival this year, Cui Gu Village was decorated with lights and was extremely lively.

The villagers gathered together to celebrate the harvest and victory of the past year, and also look forward to a bright future.

Wang Dashan stood in the center of the village, looking at the happy villagers, his heart filled with emotion.

He knows that Cui Gu Village still has a long way to go in its development and will encounter various difficulties and challenges in the future.

But he firmly believes that as long as he unites with the villagers, there will be no difficulties that cannot be overcome. Cui Gu Village will surely be able to achieve greater glory and write a more colorful new chapter of the era.

“Fellow villagers, let us raise our glasses together to celebrate our victory and wish our Cuigu Village a better tomorrow!”

Wang Dashan raised his glass and spoke loudly.

The villagers responded one after another, raised their glasses and celebrated this wonderful moment together.

Amid laughter and joy, Cui Gu Village welcomed the new year, as well as new hopes and challenges.
