The Entrepreneurial Path Of "The King Of The Army"

At the foot of the Yuquan mountain in Haidian, there is a garden full of wild tastes -- flower and fruit hill.

Walking into the garden, the winding path is deep and quiet, the mountains and birds are singing, and the breeze brings the fragrance of flowers, which makes people feel fresh and happy.

Who would have thought that, four years ago, it was still a garbage dump full of all kinds of life and construction waste.

The creation of this miracle is an old man Wang Yanming, a retired veteran cadre of the Chinese people's Liberation Army headquarters and a senior engineer in landscape architecture. He is known as "the king of the army".

Wang Yanming, who has been engaged in landscaping and beautifying for decades, has devoted himself to studying the cultivation techniques and plant landscaping projects of all kinds of flowers and plants in different regions and climates.

In particular, we have accumulated rich experience in exploring rare wild flowers and plants for family pplanting and artificial conservation, and successfully solved the problem of "South Flower North raising" and "wild flowers home raising".

For decades, he has collected, introduced and domesticated various kinds of wild plants from mountain, coastal, temperate, and cold regions. He has designed more than 200 plant landscaping projects, and has written more than 300 articles on the maintenance techniques of flowers and plants. He has published three books on "environmental layout", "common sense of flowers" and "bonsai production", which has made great achievements in scientific and technological cultivation of flowers and plants, introduction and domestication of fruit trees, exploitation and utilization of wild plants, and so on.

"We are soldiers, there should be no fear of difficulties." in 1996, Wang Yanming retired at home. Over 40 years' work of raising flowers and protecting flowers has made him deeply integrate his "flower" into his own life.

Therefore, after retiring, he persisted in consulting the related books diligently, personally went to the field to investigate the flower growth, took pains to excavate flower roots and seedlings, and took care of the flowers and grass as their own children.

Four years ago, the old man of Wang Yanming knew a situation: a place near his home, because of years of lack of management, slowly became a stinking and frail garbage dump, which greatly damaged the surrounding environment.

The Xishan Forest Farm and related departments have taken a lot of measures to resolve this problem, but the problems are hard to come back and have not been solved yet.

In front of the rubbish dump, Wang Yanming asked himself: is it comfortable to live on his own steady days, or do something for the people?

A soldier's companion is very supportive of him. "We are soldiers, and we should have the strength to resist difficulties."

The two old men vowed to pform the dump into "flower and fruit mountain".

So, after agreeing with the Xishan Forest Farm, the old two took several workers and shovels into the dump.

To clean up rubbish, pport earthwork and replace flowers and trees.

Which is physical work.

The two old people, who were over seventy years old, took four workers, a shovel and a spade to shovel away the rubbish. They moved the earth and stone one by one, and planted flowers and trees one by one.

The crowd around them saw their arduous pioneering work admiration: the people coming out of the army were different.

Under the infection of their spirit, many people who did not support their practice at first slowly understood them. They gave Wang Yan Ming a title of "flower commander", and encountered any difficulties they would run to help.

"These flowers and plants have become a part of my life." in the flower and fruit hill, you can see many of the treasures and flowers that Wang Yanming has personally maintained since the revolution.

In the early days of the Republic of China, tiger head orchid, which was dubbed "flower king" by commander Zhu De and marshal Xie Jianying, is a valuable historical fossil. It has a thousand years old ginkgo bonsai. It has 800 years of life from Taiwan, a golden eye symbolizing the hand and foot of the Straits, and China's endangered plant "Chinese mother".

These flowers and plants are not easy to get.

Once, Wang Yanming climbed the Jinggangshan general peak for the two time, and finally got a historic orchid.

In a hurry, he hurried to the airport and took the plane in Beijing. He forgot the orchid in the trunk of the taxi. When he found it, the driver had already left. Wang Yanming did not remember the number of the license plate, nor did he ask the driver for the invoice, only a yellow taxi.

At that time, he stopped his journey back to Beijing, retired the plane ticket, and started another hard journey to find the orchid.

He first reported the case to the airport public security bureau, and later contacted the auto company and radio station to search for the taxi.

Many enthusiastic people helped him find it. Finally, at second a.m., eleven a.m., a young man from the car company called him and said, "the orchid you lost has been found!"

When the orchid returned to Wang Yanming's old man's hand, his long lost heart finally fell back.

Wang Yanming, the old man, poured all his efforts into these flowers and plants.

At the beginning of the business, the old two took out hundreds of thousands of savings in their homes and threw them in.

Hire workers, buy flowers and trees, pay various expenses...

Before long, most of the money was spent.

After knowing his situation, some old comrades asked him, "Why are you suffering?"

It's good to have fun at home. "

Wang Yanming replied, "no way. These flowers have become a part of my life."

The old comrades understood him, took out their savings, and helped him to fulfill his old wish.

After four years of governance and construction, the former garbage dump became the flower and fruit mountain today.

Wang Yanming, the "soldier of the army", is gradually known by everyone.

During the May Day of this year, the flower treasure exhibition of "flower king in the army" was held in Beijing, which attracted many flower lovers to visit in Beijing.

With the spread of Wang Yanming's reputation as "the king of the army", many people came to buy these rare flowers and trees.

There is a "king of trees" ginkgo in Wang Yanming's flowers.

This Ginkgo biloba has a thousand years old, and it has a "sunny day without three days", a warm and moist gingko Township in Sichuan.

Wang Yanming, the old man, has been meticulously preserved in the cold, dry, windy and natural environment. After decades of domestication and cultivation, he has grown vigorously and has a natural and vigorous tree.

When the foreign guests paid a high price, Wang Yanming insisted on breaking up. He said: "Chinese things should stay in China."

On the other hand, a Korean businessman would like to buy him a valuable orchid back home as a commercial gift, "ten thousand yuan and one basin".

Wang Yanming shook his head and said, "no!"

South Korean businessmen thought their prices were too low and reopened the price of "ten thousand dollars!"

In the face of such tempting prices, Wang Yanming still resolutely refused. "My flowers are sold to people who really know flowers and love flowers."

Indeed, many people are clear about the price of all kinds of things, but they are ignorant of their value.

Until now, "Hua Guo Shan" has been unable to make ends meet.

Wang Yanming and his wife earn their own retirement pay every month before they have the money to pay the hired workers.

When reporters went to interview, two old men were having breakfast.

Two oil cakes and a glass of boiled water are their breakfast.

The hard life of Wang Yanming is nothing to them.

He believed in the way of raising flowers: "people grow flowers, flowers, people, flowers, beauties, beauty, and spirit."

He believes that raising flowers not only greening and beautifying the environment, but also purifies and cultivates the mind.

Although Wang Yanming is old and old, he has a quick mind and a unique military manner. He speaks of his patriotic, loving army and loving people's heart.

This is a quiet paradise.

Simple and unadorned iron gate, grinding the stone steps along the edges, and the towering trees.

This scene makes people suddenly live in Tao Yuanming's poem, "knot Lu in the land of the people, without the horse and horse".

The ten acres of the ecological garden, circling the most beautiful sunset of Wang Yanming, the retired veteran cadre, has also given us some inspiration: watering with love and cultivating with diligently, the successful flowers will open at your feet.
