The rich man who was called "ten thousand yuan" in the 1980s, Huang Xinwen, the second brigade of the Xiaolan Commune


Ten thousand yuan, this statement, I believe that many readers and friends have an impression, in my impression, this million households seem to be more attractive than the current family. At that time, the ten thousand yuan households referred to households with deposits or incomes of more than one yuan. The term ten thousand households was produced in the late 1970s, and the disappearance time was about 1997.

In the late 1970s and 1980s, ten thousand households were quite worthy. Let's take a look at the basic price at that time: the price of rice is about 0.14 yuan, the price of meat is about 0.95 yuan, the price of the relatives is about 2 yuan, and the old money is 0.1-0.2 yuan. It is conceivable that this ten thousand yuan is a concept. In the early 1980s, wages were also very low, and the wages of factory employees were around 30 yuan. With regard to such income, how difficult it is to become a ten thousand households, and ordinary people cannot find it.

Few people still remember the name "Huang Xinwen". However, in the early days of reform and opening up, he was the object of envy of hundreds of millions of peasants across China. In February 1979, the People’s Daily reported his deeds on the topic of “working hard and living a hard life”: Huang Xinwen, member of the second production team of the Second Group of the Xiaolan Commune, and the participation in the collective labor income and development of the production team in 1978. The household sideline industry, which mainly focuses on raising pigs, has a total annual income of 10,700 yuan. After deducting the cost of family sideline business, the net income is more than 5,900 yuan.

This is the first peasant household in the new China. For a time, all over the country, either in person or in a letter, asked Huang Xinwen to ask for a rich experience.

Zhao Lanlan, a member of the Zhaotatou Brigade of the Bagua Road Commune in Linqing County, Shandong Province, led the whole family to work hard to get rich. In the same year, the family's net income was 10,239 yuan, and the new house was built. Bicycles and sewing machines were also added. The Zhao Yulan family became the first “10,000 yuan household” in Shandong Province.

In the winter of 1979, the village contracted the land to each household. She was the oldest couple, and his brothers, four sisters, and two other wives who had just passed the door. They had 10 labors and contracted 21 mu of land. In the year, 9 mu of wasteland was opened, and a total of 30 mu of “Lu Mian No. 1” was planted. In that year, more than 110 kilograms of cotton were collected per mu, and more than 3,300 kilograms of cotton were produced in 30 mu of land. The average price per kilogram of cotton was 5 cents and 2 cents, and more than 17,000 pieces were sold. Removal of cotton seeds, pesticides, fertilizers, diesel and other inputs, net loss of more than 10,000 yuan. Since that year, her family has not been able to eat and wear. It has added 5 bicycles, 3 sewing machines, 2 watches, 1 clock, 2 radios. In 1982, it also built 6 new houses. Later, until 2008, she still used the "North Star" brand clock bought 28 years ago.

Into the home of Zhao Xiaolan's third-year Zhao Guangsi, the floor is covered with floor tiles, the roof is finely decorated, the new sofa, clean coffee table, trendy furniture. Next to the partial room is the kitchen and the bathroom. The courtyard is planted with rose and holly, with flowers and grass, and full of vitality, showing the rich life of farmers today.

There are many examples of this across the country. According to the statistics of the National Bureau of Statistics in 1997, the per capita income of rural areas is 2,999.20 yuan. According to the average household income of 4.35, the average household income has exceeded 10,000 yuan, and every household has become a million households. Ten thousand yuan households have become historical terms after losing their original benchmarks. Although in the eyes of today's people, 10,000 yuan is nothing. However, in those days, "ten thousand households" was the dream of many people chasing. At that time, the wealth of many rich people quickly broke through 10,000 yuan or even 100,000 yuan, but the "10,000 yuan households" have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and also confirmed the strong desire of people to get rich.

"Millions is not rich, 100,000 just started, and millions is really rich." This buzzword is a true portrayal of the wealth of Chinese people in the late 1990s. Change this sentence to everyone: 100,000 is not rich, millions just started, and millions are really rich. I wish you all a great fortune in the Year of the Sheep.
