Re: tin maker in Ji'nan blacksmith Village: it sold 180 thousand yuan a year last year.
Zhang iron Smith village is located in the town of Sha He, Shanghe County, the geographical environment is weak, small There are only 40 families and 144 people in the village. Since ancient times, they had been named as a blacksmith, and had been known as a blacksmith. During the period of the Republic of China, 30 of the 40 villagers in the village worked for iron. From generation to generation, there is no shortage of blacksmith in Zhang Tien village. Zhang Qiang's crescent moon sickle can not even cut 100 acres of grain, but the wheat harvest is not bad in the two season. But now these have become history, most of the young workers in the village go out to work, and no more tinkling sound is heard in the countryside.
Zhang Fengzheng is one of the few tin making entertainers in the village. He has been the sixth generation of descendants. Even so, Lao Zhang once put down the guy in his hand in the middle of the 90s, because there was no one in the tin products, and he had to run for other people to make a living for other people. Now the craftsman's spirit is gradually returning. In 2015, the village was put forward to excavate the advantages of the traditional tin iron hand, and Zhang Feng took up the tool to start making the tin wine tools and tea tools again. Zhang Fengzheng, who was 8 and 9 years old, learned to play tin with his father. He began to burn and boil tin from his first help to his father. Until 3 years later, he was able to make a tin device independently. At that time, a tin pot could sell 10 yuan.
