At dawn, the port channel of the border people's exchange commodity trading market in Pingmeng Town, Napo County, Guangxi has long been crowded. Tricycles waiting for transit loading have lined up, and the nearby open space is full of border people waiting for customs declaration. Wu Jiang, from Pingmeng street, said that he began to line up before seven o'clock in the morning and hoped to run more goods. His family is only one river away from Vietnam. After graduating from junior high school in 2009, Wu Jiang ran transportation at Pingmeng port. Now, almost 100% of the young workers in Pingmeng village are involved in the transportation of border trade goods.

  Napo County, Baise City, Guangxi borders Vietnam in the south. In addition to Pingmeng port, there are nine border exchange points and trade markets such as Bainan, NaBu and popei. It is one of the main channels leading to ASEAN trade area in Guangxi and even the whole country. It is known as the "South Gate of the motherland". Since February 26th, China covid-19 border trade points have been fully restored due to the new crown pneumonia outbreak. A large number of Vietnamese agricultural products such as wood, Chinese herbal medicine, fruit and other non-agricultural products such as agricultural and sideline products and aquatic products, as well as zinc, manganese and chromium, have entered the Chinese market again.

  At nine o'clock in the morning, the border people exchanged with each other and opened the market. At that time, there was a lot of noise and traffic. After going through the entry-exit border inspection, hundreds of tricycles rushed out of the special channel for customs supervision and came to the shuojiang port in Vietnam one kilometer away, carried all kinds of imported products onto the tricycles, and then entered the country through Pingmeng port. "Hawaiian nuts, unit price 18 yuan, quantity 200 kg, total price 7200 yuan..." in the examination and reporting Hall of Pingmeng border trade exchange point, many border people with border trade exchange certificates input relevant data for import commodity declaration after brushing their fingerprints to verify their identity. On average, each person completed the whole operation process of commodity declaration in less than one minute.

  "In the past, the traditional paper documents were very cumbersome. Now the declaration can be completed in a very short time by means of fingerprint identification, ID card verification and so on." Wu Jiang skillfully unlocked the tricycle and waited for loading. "The man unloading over there is my wife." Not far away, Wu Jiang's family and several other border residents are busy unloading from a tricycle pulled from Vietnam, and then carrying and loading paper boxes into a large truck. "Every day I am responsible for driving a tricycle to pull goods. She works as a porter here. The salary is about 80 yuan to 100 yuan. She doesn't have to go out to work. She can also take care of the elderly and children at home." It is understood that many border residents participating in the inter market trade are "husband and wife files". In recent years, with the increase of tax exemption, the inter market trade has undergone great changes. The mode of transportation has changed from manual scooters to motorized tricycles, and the participants have gone from single handedly to husband and wife together. Their income has also increased from hundreds of yuan a month to 100 yuan a day.

  The stable development of cross-border trade between China and Vietnam has injected impetus into economic activities such as trade, services and investment, and also improved the living standards of border residents of the two countries. According to Huang Dongming, Secretary of the Party branch of Pingmeng village, Pingmeng town is connected with Vietnam and has unique border trade resources. Border trade has ignited the exchange of Pingmeng ports, lifting many local people out of poverty and becoming rich. Although for a long time, due to the lack of funds and channels for most border people, not many border people really participate in the inter market trade, many border people make a living by working as porters and become rich through hard work. In recent years, the Napo County Party committee and government have constantly innovated the means of poverty alleviation through border trade, guided the two village committees to take the lead in establishing village level convenience cooperatives to specifically attract poor households. The "two village committees" have taken the lead to cooperate with import and export agencies to organize border people to participate in border mutual trade in a standardized manner and promote the increase of border people's income. In this way, the border people can not only supply goods, but also provide tricycle transportation, unloading and loading services. The income is very considerable. It has also successfully created a new highlight of targeted poverty alleviation in border areas. "There are about 150 tricycles running and transporting at Pingmeng port every day, and the average daily mutual market income of border residents can reach 160 yuan." Huang Dongming said.
