Lanbian Village has jurisdiction over six smaller villages: Nantang, Chadong, Chaxi, Pushan, Chikan, and Xijiangli.

"It is named Lanbian due to its location along the coastline with wild olive trees growing near the shore. The village has a history of at least 600 years", said Lin Jincheng the Lanbian Village Party secretary.

Lin, a middle-aged who loves local culture, has lived in Lanbian for more than 20 years. On the day of the interview, he took us on a tour of his hometown. Along the way, he introduced the village's historical figures, customs, stories, relics, and its achievements in rural development.

It is introduced that most of Lanbian's fellow villagers now live in Honolulu, Cuba, Peru, Panama and Ecuador.
