Located in a remote mountainous area in Wanbailin District of Taiyuan, Wangfeng Township had long suffered from poor transport infrastructure.

From the time of delivery on foot to delivery by mail van, Wang Shouqiu had earned respect and trust from local villagers with more than 30 years of earnest work.
