There are 28 large-scale enterprises and small and medium-sized enterprises in the town. In 2006, the total output value reached 200.69 million yuan, and the fiscal revenue reached 12.38 million yuan. Every place name has its origin. How did Xinchang Town in Weiyuan County come from? According to the memories of the local elderly and relevant information, we know the origin of "Xinchang". According to Zhou Jun, a local man in his 80s, the former farm was not in this place, but in LAOCHANG village. According to legend, as early as the early Ming Dynasty, Zigong, more than 40 kilometers away, was increasingly prosperous in salt production. At that time, there was no other means of transportation, so people had to carry salt to Renshou, Leshan and other places. The people along the way joined the ranks of carrying salt to Renshou, Leshan and other places. They bought mules and horses to carry the salt to Weiyuan and Zigong, and gradually formed a group of people who carried salt to Renshou, Leshan and other places Transport team. LAOCHANG is just one-third of the ancient salt horse road. These transportation teams set out to pick up salt in Zigong the day before, and then went back. It was dark when they arrived at LAOCHANG. They needed to rest here for a night. the business team is gradually expanding, and the old market is becoming more and more lively. Some people suggest that a market should be built here, where people can have a rest to eat or do business. The Liu family, a large local family, thought this idea was good, so they planned to build a venue here, build inns and restaurants, and agreed to meet every five days. Later, some rich people built their houses on the field, and some people moved to the field. Within two years, a two or three hundred meter long street was formed here. Although the street is very narrow, it still looks like that. Every morning the mules hissed and the horses barked, and the voices of the people roared. However, the good times are not long. With a large population, drinking water becomes a problem. In the flood season, people can still carry water from the river for drinking, but in the dry season, people don't even have water to eat. Without water, there will be no vitality in a place. Of course, there will be no people. The old stadium can't be expanded. In less than two years, the stadium won't rise. Later, some rich people began to choose the address of Jianchang again. After looking for several places, we found that Xinchang (upstream Village) is an open place with seven ancient wells. The water source is never exhausted, so we decided to build a new town in this place. There is no official name. People naturally call the new town "Xinchang". The eliminated field is called "old field". after the construction of the new site, the transport team that can transport salt and rice can rest. Later, there was a coal factory in Xinchang, and the local people took the coal to Zigong to cook salt, increasing the number of coal picking teams, and more and more people came and went. Later, Xinchang was able to accommodate not only all the porters who carried coal and salt to transport rice, but also merchants who managed rice, coal, salt and general merchandise. People from surrounding Rongxian, Renshou, Qingwei, Lianjie, Guanyingtan and other places came here to catch up. Later, the road was built for mules, horses and carts. more and more people go to the market and settle down in Xinchang Town. With the increase of population, a reservoir has been built near Xinchang. After the reform and opening up, Xinchang has built a water station to meet the drinking water needs of the town population.

For those who are literary and artistic, they can hold a guitar and play a song; for those who are chivalrous, they can drink a cup of wine and imagine the carefree life of Jin Yong in the troubled times.

"hard up the heart (new field) over the old field, now the new field is not the same, intangible cultural heritage landscape is not enough to see, traditional sheep soup guest unforgettable." This is a doggerel to describe Xinchang Town, Weiyuan County, Neijiang City. Chen Qiang, Secretary of the Party committee of Xinchang Town, said that although it was just a few Doggerels, it basically summed up the characteristics of Xinchang. because the town built three kilometers away was short of water, so it had to be abandoned and rebuilt. So the abandoned one is called the old one, and now it is called the new one, so the new one gets its name. Xinchang Town, located 19 kilometers northwest of Weiyuan County, Neijiang City, was built in the early Ming Dynasty. Chen Qiang said that after continuous transformation and development, the streets of Xinchang Town have not only modern buildings, but also the charm of hundreds of years old streets. The ancestors built eight clubs, such as the Longevity Palace, which left an unforgettable historical and cultural legacy. From the Ming Dynasty, the Nine Festival Dragon, together with fireworks, hot metal and other dance, is a rare intangible cultural heritage in the world. Around Xinchang Town, there are thousands of acres of virgin forest, cigutang, which is rated as a forest park by the state. "Yuntouding mountain, 902 meters above, is the highest point of Neijiang City. There are also five pines, a small bamboo sea and other natural landscapes. You can feel the artistic conception of" looking at the mountains horizontally and forming peaks on the side, with different heights from far to near. " Chen Qiang strongly recommends the beautiful mountains and forests in Xinchang Town. When it comes to delicious food, Chen Qiang says with a smile that Xinchang's mutton soup is well-known, and outsiders often come to eat it. "The good taste of Xinchang mutton soup lies in its primitive practice and pursuit of original flavor." Chen Qiang said that the mutton soup in Xinchang is not fried, but mainly consists of mutton bone, with proper addition of pig bone and local mutton. In addition, it is boiled with traditional materials. After the mutton is cooked, it is picked up and the soup is continued until the soup is thick and white, and you can smell the fragrance from tens of meters away. "When the guests come, they will put the sliced mutton in the soup and boil it. Then they will make a strong white and delicious soup and serve it with coriander. The pungent aroma will definitely make your mouth full of saliva immediately. You will have a big appetite. If you are not hungry, you will want to eat a big bowl. "
