The Sibeigou family wore bamboo hats, water hyacinths filled with salted cold water, and sickles on their waists. His wife, two sons and daughter-in-law, and two grandsons aged thirteen or fourteen. They were all dressed the same and lined up.

"Everyone, listen up. We have been working hard for months and have been waiting for these few days. It has not been peaceful recently, and both the east and west are ready to harvest. We must rush to harvest. No one wants to have mature crops that are cheap, not the Tatars. Okay, I don’t need to say more about the rest. The workshop also rushed to make a batch of pedal threshing machines, which were separated from the bags on the field. The animal husbandry team got all the cattle and horses they could get. Help us Transport it to the city. Guys, please work harder and work harder to get the pellets back to the warehouse. Don’t waste it. If you delay for a moment, the damage caused by birds pecking, rats, and wind and rain falling off is not small. "

"Old Uncle Zhong, stop talking. Everyone knows that they are all scared of hunger. The one who dares not to cherish food must work hard."

"Yes, if you can't finish harvesting during the day, keep working with a torch."

"Yes, the seeds are good and the ground is fertile. The weather will be good this year and the insects won't interfere. It looks like a bumper harvest."

Old Zhongtou put down his hands, motioned for everyone to be quiet, and said: "This year, our company has been arranged to plant wine-making sorghum, using short-stemmed, early-maturing and high-yielding seeds. Sixty pounds of cow manure was applied to each acre of land. After flowering, I added 30 kilograms of human manure as top dressing. The agricultural students in the college said that the yield per mu can reach 800 kilograms. If there are chemical fertilizers, the yield per mu can reach 1500-2000 kilograms. We don’t know what chemical fertilizers are, but our farmers There is enough fertilizer. This year's harvest will definitely be good. Once the sorghum is sold, everyone can buy whatever grain they want."

Legend has it that in ancient times, Gonggong was in charge of water conservancy work. Gonggong's son was named Julong. When floods broke out, he guided the people to build houses on the highland mounds and reclaim wasteland to fight the floods.

Every 25 households constitute a community, which is the earliest origin of the word community.

Yang Fan followed the ancient system and organized 25 households into a community and ten communities into a district. There are 250 households in each community of farmers in Duolun City, with a population of about 1,300. There are a total of 6,000 farmers in the city, divided into 24 communities, also called twenty-four communities.

Each village has a community office, which is self-governing by the farmers. The management agencies are directly elected, just like the village committees on Yang Fan's territory, they are all directly elected. It is re-elected every year before the Spring Festival. Of course, the medical, education, judicial and financial and taxation departments are still sent by the government.

At present, Duolun City has not appointed civilian officials to take charge, and it is still under early military control. Huang San and An Sanxi are responsible for the main affairs.

Ansanxi is mainly responsible for the Mongolian pastures. Huang San is mainly responsible for the farmland, Duolun City and Bastille Castle.

Public security in the city is mainly responsible for the security teams formed by off-duty personnel elected from each district. Civil disputes and criminal cases were transferred to Huang San for handling.

Later, students graduating from the academy will be gradually sent here to organize government and judicial and law enforcement agencies.

Because this is Mongolia, Yang Fan dare not let them disperse into natural villages and live in the surrounding areas. He would rather work hard for them and get up early and walk long distances to go to the fields when farming.

After all, they were protected by the rammed earth wall, and they were safe. As for the periphery of farmland, trenches are dug and wire fences are installed to prevent wild animals from destroying crops.

Although the land is growing well, everyone can see that the sorghum flowers are much larger than ordinary sorghum. But no one dared to estimate the yield per mu to be so high, and suddenly the penis below exploded.

When we first planted this variety, everyone was reluctant. The sorghum was short and everyone was worried about a poor harvest. Unexpectedly, it produced such a high yield.

This sorghum is very strange. It is only less than a person tall. Normal sorghum is more than a quarter taller than this one, but the seeds produced by this short sorghum are much higher than normal sorghum.

This seed was specially chosen by Yang Fan. Mongolians like wine, so mass production of liquor is a good way to revitalize the local economy.

Only by allowing Mongolians and Han people to need each other can the two nations be united, and neither can live without the other.

This seed is the modern Jinnuo No. 5. This kind of seed is semi-waxy, has a large output value, and has a high wine yield. It is one of the preferred sorghum varieties in the wine-making industry.

The growth period is 120 days, the average plant height is 1.50 meters, and the ear length is 30-42 cm. It is compact and has red shells and red grains. This variety is highly adaptable and can be cultivated in mountains, dry lands, saline-alkali lands, and sandy lands. The general yield per mu is 1500-2000 About kilograms.

Moreover, sorghum stalks can be fed to livestock such as cattle, horses, and sheep. The Mongolians recruited by Yang Fan will bid farewell to nomadic herding and switch to fixed pastures to plant alfalfa with high nutritional value and raise them in captivity.

Nomadism is a last resort. It is to prevent livestock from eating the grass roots and destroying the grassland, so it is necessary to move for grazing. This is also the reason why Mongolia and the previous nomadic peoples have loose national organization.

The control is weak and the regime is extremely unstable.

Yang Fan fixed them up and settled down for easy control.

Only by settling down and fixing them in cities and residential areas can we firmly control the grasslands and facilitate long-term peace and stability in the future.

In addition, planting grass can produce silage fodder in autumn, ensuring that livestock can survive the winter.

There are many benefits to living in captivity. It is easier for cattle and sheep to gain weight if they do not move around. Planting pasture can increase the livestock capacity of a unit of pasture.

In winter, cattle and sheep are driven into stone houses to light fires, and there is no shortage of coal in Inner Mongolia. This way the cattle and sheep will not freeze to death.

When the sheep breed is replaced by fine-wool sheep, in the future, in addition to mutton, wool will also be a major income for herdsmen.

Duolun City will develop a wool textile industry, producing wool, wool and cashmere products, leather clothes, shoes and fur clothing. Build large-scale slaughterhouses to produce a variety of cooked food, sausages and other meat products for sale to the mainland.

The Mongolians assigned each household a small courtyard in the city, built a fence, set up a yurt, and lived in it with their dogs.

Only some Mongolians chose to hire others to build their houses. After these Mongolians live in houses and hot kangs and spend the winter comfortably, I believe that other Mongolians will soon abandon their yurts.

Nowadays, every community in the city is a chaotic mixture of mud houses and yurts.

The Mongols did not have a separate community. They were all separated and lived in the twenty-four squares, living together with the Han people.

At this time, an incense table was placed in the open space in the south of the city.

An Sanxi and Huang San took the officials, big and small, to burn incense and pray, bowing three times and kowtowing.

Kill a pig, a cow, and a sheep each on the spot, and place the heads on the incense table.

Pray for the blessings of God and ancestors, abundant harvests every year, safety for people and animals, prosperity of all industries, and wealth in all seasons.

After offering sacrifices to heaven and earth, ancestors and the god of grain, An Sanxi shouted, "Open the sickle!"

On the top of the city gate, a cannon with no projectiles was loaded. As a signal cannon, it made a loud bang and fired into the sky.

After the sound of the cannon, cannons were fired one after another on the three city gates in the east, west and north.

Gathered outside the city, the production teams from various communities, with the community as a small team and the district as a brigade, collectively raised their sickles and shouted loudly: "Open the sickle! Open the sickle! Open the sickle!"

The leader of the team, Zhong Tou'er, raised his sickle and shouted: "Everyone, work hard. Try to finish the harvest in three days. The ten families with the most harvest will be rewarded with a cart and a pack horse for each family as mentioned above."

Suddenly, everyone in the crowd was gearing up, turning around and rushing towards the sorghum field.
