Young entrepreneurs lead rural revitalization

ZHENGZHOU - A decade ago, Lyu Xiaofang was one of millions of young Chinese women who left their rural homes to find work in distant cities.

Now, the 30-year-old migrant worker has returned to her village in Shangshui county, Henan province, and built a business making shopping bags, enabling other village women to earn money.

Wearing shiny earrings, lipstick and a stylish woolen coat, Lyu owns nine factories. In 2011, she set up the first, using sewing skills she mastered while working in Jiangsu province. She employs more than 300 young women from nearby villages.
