Especially in the late 1970s, the business of exporting the tea industry was gradually declining, and then the high-end teas for domestic sales rose, so the tea gardens began to be abandoned and some were turned into citrus. At the same time, the government rewarded rice fields for fallow cultivation, so rice paddy fields were hardly seen. The rural economy began to decline, leaving old farmers to nurse their children and raise their grandchildren. The entire community lost its previous competitive spirit. Most of the elderly care for the elderly, and a small number of people go to work. Old farmers usually use idle land to grow vegetables. In addition to self-catering, they provide holidays to return to visit family and children. At present, there is still a tea factory located in the sand pit tribe, which mainly deals with export and domestic sales.
