KUNMING, March 20 (Xinhua) -- Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, visited a modern flower industry park in the city of Lijiang, southwest China's Yunnan Province, on Wednesday afternoon.
Xi talked with villagers and technicians working there, asking about the flower varieties, market sales and their incomes.
The villagers told Xi that they earned over 4,000 yuan (about 557.46 U.S. dollars) each month, with incomes exceeding 7,000 yuan during peak seasons. Growing flowers is a truly joyful job, they said.
Xi said with delight: "Your endeavor is thriving and aligns with the development path of modern agriculture. May your lives be as beautiful as flowers."
