4. Data Collection Methods
This research is mainly conducted in the following ways.
4.1. Conduct Investigation and Research in the Form of Questionnaire
Compile the information you need to know into questions, send it out in the form of questionnaire, and then collect the percentage of each question in the questionnaire to obtain the survey information. The electronic questionnaire was jointly produced, and then a large number of survey results were collected by the whole group members through their social circles (WeChat circle of friends, WeChat, QQ group messages, QQ space, etc.). In addition, considering the many impoverished people in Rouguo village who were unable to participate in the questionnaire online, the team will also produce a paper version of the questionnaire, which will be widely distributed in the survey destinations. For those with less education, we asked questions according to the questionnaire and recorded their answers, so that the results could be faithfully reflected in the questionnaire, so as to collect a large number of samples. Finally, through the division of labor in the group, the obtained results were collected, use statistical methods, calculate the number of people in each interval, and corresponding results were obtained through objective analysis. The mutual cooperation between online and offline methods not only broadens the ways for the masses to participate in research and enhances their cooperation, but also improves the scientific nature and rigor of the research.
4.2. Conduct Research in the Form of Interviews (Zhou, 2019)
Through visiting and investigating the people with difficulties in life, as well as the poverty-stricken households recognized by the government, the interviewees will be determined. Through targeted interviews, representative poverty-stricken households were selected for special in-depth interviews, so as to provide reference points for the collection of research results, analysis and discussion. Targeted interviews not only supplement the defects of samples with insignificant characteristics, but also provide authentic and credible arguments for poverty alleviation research, improve the authenticity of the research, and help the research working group grasp the accuracy of the research direction. In addition, the interview in this research will also communicate with local cadres who are engaged in poverty alleviation work, find out their specific situation about Rouguo village and develop a specific policy that was implemented, and observe the research work from a higher perspective, so as to fully grasp the actual progress and significance of poverty alleviation work, thus ensuring the objectivity of the research results and analysis.

5. Sampling Method
The sample location in this survey was Ruoguo village, considering that villagers need to work in agriculture or work outside, or due to the impact of weather conditions such as rainfall, and uncertainly about villagers’ mobility. As a result, the samples collected cannot be estimated more accurately. In order to ensure the scientific selection of research samples, the sampling method of this research is selected according to the following conditions:
1) When the number of samples is small (≤80), the lottery method is adopted. Generally speaking, the lottery method is to write the number of N individual Numbers in the population of the investigated people on the number sign, put the number sign in a container, after mixing evenly, draw a number sign from it every time, draw N times in a row, then get a sample with a capacity of N.
2) When the number of samples is large (>80), the equal-ratio sampling method in the stratified sampling method is adopted. Stratified sampling refers to a method in which the population is divided into mutually disjoint layers during sampling, and a certain number of individuals are extracted independently from each layer according to a certain proportion, and the individuals taken from each layer are combined together as samples. Where, the ratio of the number of individuals drawn by each layer to the number of individuals in the class is the same.

7. Variable Design
In this survey, we set the following variables:
Discrete variables refer to the variables that divide things into two or more classes according to certain standards. In our survey, we separated the villagers who lived primarily through their average annual income into those who were impoverished or those who were not, and poor households are our main target (Bi, 2016).
A continuous variable is a variable that directly represents a change in the quantity of the same class of things by a set of data. In this survey, we used the average annual income level to reflect the changes in the living standards of poor households.
Dependent variable refers to the variable that cannot affect other variables but is changed by external interference. In this survey, the poor households were affected by the targeted poverty alleviation policy and their living standard changed.
In the questionnaire, 61 villagers were interviewed primarily for their article. Among them, showing in Table 1, 65.57% have annual household income below 10,000, 25.31% have annual household income between 10,000 and 20,000, and the rest of the respondents have annual household income scattered in various intervals (see the attached questionnaire for details). 78.68% of the respondents have a family size of 4 or more. 75.41% of the respondents were mainly engaged in farming. According to the survey data, the reasons for the low annual income of the respondents may be related to the larger family size and the involvement in farming.
Showing in Figure 3, 57.38% of the respondents were received clinic service by the School of traditional Chinese medicine of Jinan University, reflects the School of traditional Chinese medicine work wide audience in the area of poverty alleviation, poverty alleviation work scope is larger, Ruogou villagers took participate in or know of traditional Chinese medicine academy of poverty alleviation activities have free clinic project, the number of accounts for 60.66% of the total number of respondents, and know that there are health knowledge popularization, the number of 54.1% of the total number of investigation.

According to the survey data, poverty alleviation activities carried out by the School of Traditional Chinese Medicine have attracted a large number of audiences, whose main function is to popularize health knowledge and enrich the activities in the village.

In this survey, we conducted an in-depth interview with two impoverished families who were sponsored primarily by the School of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
The reason for the low income of the two poor families is that the working population is small and the family members are seriously ill. Born disabled and unemployed. This reflects the diversity of poverty alleviation targets funded by the School of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and the precision of poverty alleviation targets. All of them have received consolation money and medicine subsidies from the School, which reflects that the materials provided by the School are targeted and individualized to the needs of different poor families. All of them are satisfied with the poverty alleviation services provided by the School.

Through this survey, we can see that more than 70% of the respondents are engaged in agricultural production, the number of family members is 4 or more, and 40% of the respondents have an annual income of less than 20,000, suggesting that improving agricultural production conditions, increasing agricultural output rate and production efficiency can be more targeted to alleviate poverty for agricultural producers.
In recent years, the School of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) of Jinan University lacked about half of the villagers primarily through the poverty alleviation service provided by the School of Traditional Chinese Medicine. The Colleg’s poverty alleviation offerings have initially grown in size, but there is still room for expansion. However, 40% of the respondents are still not familiar with the free clinic activities of the School of Traditional Chinese Medicine, so they see that our influence still needs to be improved and our publicity still needs to be strengthened.

The villagers have improved their health awareness and sense of happiness.
