Recently, the ground-breaking ceremony of the "happy village" project was held at Yongjiang Street, attracting a lot of citizens concerned with the future development of the block. Reportedly, the project, with an investment of 70 million yuan for the first phase, will cover a total area of 628 mu, involving Fanlitang Administrative Village and Waicao Administrative Village. As the first rural tourism complex, the project will be completed by the end of 2017 and will then serve as an excellent destination for Ningbo citizens.

The project will certainly benefic the local villagers. "I used to rent my houses to the local vegetable growers, and now I rent them to the village authority with a higher rent. We are now living a better life." said a Mr. Zhang from Jiangshen Village.

"Now, to develop the project, the enterprises concerned will rent the houses of over 30 rural households of Jiangshen Village (of Fanlitang Administrative Village) and Xiaoxujiang Village (of Waicao Administrative Village) as well as some previously vacant lots, and remove the illegally built houses. This will not only increase the renting for the villagers but also improve the whole environment of the village." said Li Genhua, Secretary of the Party Committee of Waicao Administrative Village
