At the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War, the upstream village was under the jurisdiction of the seventh district of Laiwu County. 194 1 year, Laiwu is divided into three counties: Laibei, Donglai and Xinfu, which belong to Laibei; In the same year, the township (town) was abolished, and the large area was divided into small areas, the village was under the jurisdiction of the district, and the upstream village was under the snow area; 1945 10, the three counties merged and renamed Laiwu county; In March 195 1, Laiwu county changed the place name area into a digital area, the yexue area into 12 area, and the upstream village belonged to 12 area; 1955, June 5438+00, Laiwu county resumed its geographical name area, and the upstream village belongs to Yexue area. 1March, 958, the district township was withdrawn, and the upstream village was subordinate to the upstream township; In June 5438+10 of the same year, the upstream people's commune was established, and the upstream village was the resident of the commune; 1April, 984, the upstream commune was changed to the upstream office; 1985, 165438+ 10, the upstream office is divided into three townships (towns): upstream, Ye Xue and Luye. 200 1, after the merger of villages and towns, sanxiang town became Yexue Town. The upstream village is still the town resident.
There are two north-south streets in the upstream village, both of which have been hardened. East of Dongjie Street, there are three concentrated residential areas: Guigoya, Wankeng and Xingshanzi. The terrain is rugged, with pigeon cliffs and western hills. East Street is relatively flat, and all wells are concentrated here. In 2002, after the new village committee was established, it invested more than 654.38+10,000 yuan, used three groups of high-pressure pumps to lift water and laid pipelines 1 100 meters, which completely solved this problem. 1975, the town hall moved from the village south to the hillside on the north side of Minglai Road, and the original site is now a residential building. Others, such as credit cooperatives and supply and marketing cooperatives, are also used as residential houses; The Food College has been used as an upstream middle school and sanatorium; The bank is now the town education office. These troops also moved to the north of the village. 1986, a 6-hole stone bridge with a length of 50 meters and a width of 12 meters was built in a small river in the north of the village, connecting the north and the south. 1995, two east-west streets have been opened in the village, which are directly connected with Laiming Road, forming a new pattern of two vertical and two horizontal. The scale of villages is constantly expanding and becoming more standardized and reasonable. Because of its superior geographical location and convenient transportation, it is a distribution center for people and logistics. Since Ming Road as the center, the villagers in the upper reaches have developed more than 30 categories of commercial systems, such as household appliances, building materials, chemicals, buildings, heating accessories, motorcycle sales and maintenance, catering services, agricultural products processing and sales, and passenger rental, and are the central villages in the northern mountainous areas. In recent years, the construction of small towns has changed with each passing day, and rows of buildings have sprung up, showing a thriving scene.
The upstream Daji has a history of more than 300 years, and it is an important circulation and trade network connecting Laiwu and Zhangqiu and radiating five towns. On the ninth day of the fourth lunar month, it was originally in the village. 1987 moved to the north of the village and built a farmer's market. There are 7 rows of clay trays for water repair, with a total length of 378 meters. At present, there are more than 1 100 stalls and a ginger and pepper wholesale market, with more than 1 100 listed varieties, more than 5000 mobile workers, and the daily turnover is about 220,000 yuan. Villagers have a tradition of doing business since ancient times and have a good reputation in the four townships. Now there are about 50 people, engaged in procurement, sales and processing for many years. There has always been ginger trading in Shijiazhuang, and the upstream people occupy most of the market share in this area. The neighborhood is centered on Zhoucun sales, mainly retail, with a round trip every two or three days, which is flexible and fast, and business and agriculture can't be wrong. Villager Zhu established a ginger buying and selling center in 2000 and became a big buyer and seller. Li Junhua and Zhu Fengli are the most famous pepper dealers.
In the past few years, this village has mainly grown corn and wheat. In recent years, the planting structure has been constantly adjusted, and ginger has gradually become the main crop. The south, east and north of the village are all ginger fields. In the season of planting and producing ginger, men, women and children go into battle together, and even rice is eaten in the field. The scene is very lively. Jiang Jing is mainly concentrated in the dirt field in the east of the village, and has a tendency to develop to the north of the village. The village of Shan Ye is vast and remote. The two village committees issued the policy of "whoever plants trees will benefit, which will remain unchanged for 30 years" to encourage villagers to develop barren hills and plant trees. The masses responded positively, and the village Xishan field was all green. Production tools have been greatly improved in recent years, trolleys have been basically eliminated, and agricultural vehicles are entering every household. There are more than 200 motor tricycles, motorcycles, transport vehicles and more than 0/00 water pumps in the village.
In the long-term revolutionary struggle, the people in the upper reaches have formed a fine revolutionary tradition. From1February, 1942, when the Japanese army set up a stronghold in the village, to1April, 1944, the upstream militia consciously acted and stood guard, fighting bloody battles with the Japanese army, crushing the Japanese conspiracy and defending their homeland. 1945, there was an upsurge of joining the army in the village. In spring, Wang Xinzheng, the village head, led his family of five to join the army, and the villagers saw them off in sedan chairs. In autumn of the same year, more than 20 people joined the army. The upstream is located in the traffic fortress, and the people in the upstream use their own convenient conditions to send letters, meals, uniforms, stretchers and give enthusiastic support to the troops. In the battle of Laiwu and the battle against Zhangqiu, their enthusiasm was higher, and they rushed to the front line one after another, and the people in the upper reaches made great contributions.
The Xishan field in the village is very wide with ravines. The three hills near the village are covered with cypress trees, and the four seasons are lush, much like sentries guarding the village. Xiaowoyu is full of small caves, which are big enough to put a square table. There was once a strange stone in the valley, which looked like a tiger with a big mouth, so it was named Tiger's Mouth. Now the tiger's teeth and mouth have been smashed, leaving only traces. The whole western slope is covered with bluestone mountains and slabs everywhere. A stone factory was built behind the town government compound. From the foot of the mountain to the mountainside, pepper trees are planted everywhere, which is impenetrable. In the harvest season, it is black and red. Pigeon Cliff in the north of the village, about 20 meters high, is a steep cliff with a stone crack below. It is said that "Fox Fairy" lives. In the old house of the villager Song Riji, there is an ancient locust tree, the trunk of which is mostly decayed, but it is still flourishing. There is a hole at the bottom, and people can aim at a sleeve, which is known as a sacred tree.
The peasant troupe in the village is quite famous. During the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period, he and the army art troupe performed in Fangxia, Liyang, Kouzhen and other places, and trained a large number of literary and artistic backbones. The tradition of loving literature and art continues to this day. After liberation, the rehearsals of Laiwu Bangzi Opera "The Story of the Wall" and "Zhao Liandai Borrows Daughter" were reported to the county seat. Now, during the holidays, some fans are still addicted to playing drums, rehearsing plays, promoting respect for the elderly and caring for the young, family planning and so on.
