Recently, at the village road expansion construction site in Fangzhuang New Village, Zaigen Township, Xixia County, Henan Province, excavators are swinging their long arms while villagers are busy leveling the roadbed.

According to reports, Zhongjiang Wanxi Pharmaceutical donated 100,000 yuan in special funds to the Xixia County Charity Federation for improving rural transportation conditions—expanding village roads in Fangzhuang New Village in Zaigen Township, expanding first-class roads in Caohuyu in Erlangping Town, and expanding road bridges in Xixin Village in Taiping Town.

**Roads Connected, Industry "Bottlenecks" Become "Turning Points"**

In Fangzhuang New Village, Zaigen Township, the cornel trees in Zhongjiang Wanxi Pharmaceutical's 5,800-acre standardized demonstration garden are thriving. Cao Yu, Deputy Secretary of the Zaigen Township Party Committee and Township Chief, said: "After this road expansion, not only can large transport vehicles pass through, but it can also connect to the township main road, directly linking to processing points in the county seat, injecting new momentum into industrial development."

Xixin Village in Taiping Town boasts an 8,000-acre cornel base with an annual output of about 300 tons, benefiting over 900 medicinal herb farmers. "With the bridge repaired, tourists can come to appreciate the flower sea and pick 'fairy fruits.' We plan to integrate 'planting + processing + cultural tourism' to help villagers increase their income," said village party secretary Liang Hongwei with anticipation.

In the village office of Caohuyu Village, Erlangping Town, village and enterprise representatives are sitting together discussing industrial planning after road expansion: "With roads connected, we can introduce traditional Chinese medicine deep-processing enterprises and build centralized storage points, allowing herb farmers to sell medicinal materials right at their doorstep..." Their discussions outline a new blueprint for rural revitalization.

Dongping Village in Taiping Town, known for its "cornel flower sea," suffered a short-term extreme heavy rainfall attack on the evening of June 30, resulting in severe infrastructure damage and significant losses to people's lives and property. Zhongjiang Wanxi Pharmaceutical responded immediately to the call and donated 300,000 yuan in disaster relief funds to assist with post-disaster reconstruction.

**Deeper Connections, Village-Enterprise "Bridge of Hearts" Grows Wider**

Road extension is just one example of Zhongjiang Wanxi Pharmaceutical's active participation in the "Ten Thousand Enterprises Revitalizing Ten Thousand Villages" initiative and deep cultivation of rural revitalization. For many years, the company has consistently upheld the medical sage spirit of "helping the world and loving people," investing 5.5 million yuan annually to implement the "four exemptions and one improvement" policy, weaving a dense industrial support network.

In rural construction, the company precisely focuses on "shortcomings," investing 2.8 million yuan annually to establish a rural revitalization development fund, participating in infrastructure projects such as road hardening and environmental improvement in villages where medicinal material bases are located, promoting village "beautification." Through measures like guaranteed purchasing and skills training, they help herb farmers "get rich." Through public donations and cultural co-construction, they enrich rural spiritual and cultural life.

From "giving fish" to "teaching fishing," Zhongjiang Wanxi Pharmaceutical has carved out a win-win path of "enterprise development, rural revitalization, and farmer income increase." The company has successively received honors including the National Advanced Private Enterprise in Precision Poverty Alleviation Action of "Ten Thousand Enterprises Helping Ten Thousand Villages" and the National Advanced Collective in Social Poverty Alleviation Development.

"In the future, we will continue to uphold our original intention, leverage the driving role of leading traditional Chinese medicine enterprises, and continue to exert efforts in roads, industry, education and other aspects, working hand in hand with villages in the same direction," said a representative of Zhongjiang Wanxi Pharmaceutical.
