Zhang Chenghua is a local resident at Lingtou village, Wuxiang county.

Over the past few years, local authorities here have established e-commerce training sessions to encourage villagers to trade agricultural products such as millet, pecans and green beans online.

Wei Baoyu, Zhang's son, has opened an online store selling homegrown agricultural products. The products are selling well and have contributed significantly to the Zhang family's income.
