About This Novel
"New Mulberry Fields by the Jialing River" is a full-length literary work of rural revitalization rooted in Nanchong, Sichuan. It takes the new silk village on the Jialing River as the core of the narrative and connects the rural struggle stories of three generations of old mulberry farmers, the first secretary in the village, and the young people who have returned home. Spring floods destroyed centuries-old mulberry forests, worsening the already declining mulberry silk industry. Old party secretary Li Shousang clung to his ancestral craftsmanship and felt helpless. Chen Nianjiang, a young man who returned to his hometown, was torn between his feelings for his hometown and his career in the city. Su Xiaosi, a descendant of the silk capital, stationed in the village in times of crisis, opening the door to rural ruin with professionalism and perseverance. From the improvement of mulberry seedlings and the exploration of new industries in old mills, to the business innovation of live broadcast selling silk and the fragrance of mulberry tea, to the development of mulberry field tourism and industrial alliances, the novel uses delicate writing to outline the whole process of Silk City New Village under the rural revitalization strategy, relying on the cultural heritage of Nanchong's "Chinese Silk City", activating the endogenous power of mulberry silk intangible cultural heritage, and solving the dilemma of brain drain and single industry. The work integrates the natural scenery of the Jialing River, the local customs of northern Sichuan, and the silk intangible cultural heritage culture, and depicts vivid portraits of grassroots cadres, returning youth, new farmers, etc. It not only writes about the realistic pain of rural development, but also demonstrates the spirit of integrity, innovation, and cohesion of the people of northern Sichuan. It interprets the "blood-making" code of rural revitalization, making the story of mulberry fields along the Jialing River a vivid footnote of the transformation of the countryside in the new era.
