About This Novel
The novel "Golden Valley and Silver Mountain" takes the coordinated development of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei as the background, showing a magnificent picture of life in northern China's rural areas after the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. It is a new "entrepreneurial history" of contemporary Chinese farmers. Fan Shaoshan, a young farmer from Baiyangyu, Yanshan, liked Liang Shengbao since childhood and took Liang Shengbao as an example. He became rich selling vegetables in Changping, Beijing, but his father, who became disabled while working in Tianjin, returned to his hometown. Snowstorms and poverty plagued the 17 households of farmers, empty-nesters, disabled people and children who had not yet relocated in the village. In despair, villager Lao De'an committed suicide. This brought a huge shock to Fan Shaoshan's soul. He took the initiative to return to his hometown, effectively answering the question of farmers who had been separated from the land and returning to their hometown. He led the villagers on a green and ecological road to get rid of poverty and become rich. In order to dig out the grain seeds left by his ancestors and fight against foreign seeds, he finally found the legendary golden millet in the Taihang Mountains and planted it on the land of Baiyangyu. It was a success and caused a sensation. Under the guidance of Professor Sun from the Agricultural University, he used the apple orchard in his village to cultivate pesticide-free apples, and the result was China's first "never-rotten" apple, known as the "golden apple." In order to open up the road between Baiyangyu and the outside world, Fan Shaoshan led the villagers to dig hard... And carried out an arduous struggle, so that a small mountain village that was about to disappear in poverty and despair finally got rid of poverty and became rich, became a well-known tourist village, and lived a green life that is envied by people in the city. Fan Shaoshan's footsteps did not stop there. He also went down the mountain to promote land transfer and built a 10,000-acre golden millet planting base. While realizing the dreams of new farmers, it also benefited more farmers in northern China. Their entrepreneurial story of perseverance and forge ahead composed a tragic song that moved the world and moved the times.
