Chapter 741: The Happy Life of the Herdsmen
The conversation with Bu Baicang was a bit subverting Yang Meng's view of herders.
Originally...... The herdsmen are the real rich people! Not counting the 8 million compensation, Bu Baicang is also a proper rich man.
What is the local government's resettlement method for herdsmen in pastoral areas? According to the population, everyone will be allocated a large amount of pasture. The specific data Bu Baicang did not tell Yang Meng, he only told Yang Meng: because the wind power development project occupies a lot of his grassland, he still has about 6,000 acres of grassland.
6,000 acres? is that still the number after it occupies a lot of pasture?
Yang Meng just wanted to swear when he heard itγγγγγγ
People in the city have to work hard for a long time to live in a 100-square-meter house, but what about here? If Lao Tzu has 4,000 acres of grassland, Lao Tzu's house will be even bigger!
Moreover, these playgrounds also have herdsmen's subsidies, and the policies of each place are different, such as here in Bubaicang, which is 65 yuan a mu of land a year! That is to say, he has a subsidy income of 200,000 yuan a year if he does nothing.
Moreover, Bu Baicang is still the old business, that is, he is engaged in breeding and grazing, and he is very modest in his words: I don't make much, a sheep is only more than 1,000 yuan, and the herdsmen who raise camels near the mountains earn a lot. I only have more than 700 sheep, which can only be regarded as an upper-medium scale, and those large pastures are large enough, and I have contracted other pastures to have more than 1,000 sheep. The 'Thousand Sheep Households' are wealthy families!
Looking at his sheepfold that stretched into a hill, Yang Meng and the others didn't know what to say.
And he raised horses in addition to sheep.
Although there are not many horseback riders here, people's love for horses comes from the bottom of their bones, and a horse can be sold for 10,000 or 20,000 yuan casually, and if it is of good quality, a horse can be sold for hundreds of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions! And he still has 200 small horses.
In this way, he also complained to Yang Meng: Oh, it is too hard for children to go to school in big cities, and if you go to one child, you have to sell two horses, and if you go to one child, you have to sell two horsesγγγγγγ However, no matter how poor you are, you can't be poor in education! You have to let your children go out, and you can't let them stay in the pasture for the rest of their lives, just like yourselfγγγγγγ
Yang Meng now understands that these herdsmen are all local tyrants, just like New Zealand, although they have no sense of existence, they are one of the top ten developed countries.
However, the herdsmen here pursue a free and easy life, that is, they like the pleasure of crisscrossing the grassland and the pleasure of chic life, accompanied by wine and meat. Only when 'Naadam' is the stage for them to show. Now, of course, Naadam has become a trick to trick tourists, with old herders holding their own small horse races, and then holding horse races, wrestling, archery competitions, and delicious food and wine, as is the case with the most traditional Naadam conventions.
Due to the continuous increase of subsidies to herdsmen by the state in recent years, the life of herdsmen is getting better and better, so the population in pastoral areas has been 'excessively growing' recentlyγγγγγγ
However, in fact, there are many 'fake Mongolians' in Inner Mongolia, that is, the household registration is Mongolian and Han nationality, after all, there are too many benefits such as extra points in the college entrance examination of ethnic policies, and there are more real Mongolian people in rural and pastoral areas.
In order to make quick money, some people directly subcontract out the pasture, five to ten yuan a year for one acre of land, and a subcontract for thousands of acres of land, which is a lot of income, and some live in the city
Herders with pastures generally choose this way----- anyway, they can't take care of it there, so how good is it to subcontract it directly?
At that time, the reason for the contractor to contract the grassland was to obtain short-term benefits! In particular, the phenomenon of grass harvesting was the most serious, and in some places the grass seeds were hurriedly planted before they were ripe, or the grass roots and grass seed belts were directly left behind to destroy the grassland ecology. After all, there are too many grasslands here, which are too big and scattered, so let's say that there are nearly 40 million acres of grassland suitable for grass in the Xilin Gol League, where they are located now!
There is also the phenomenon of illegal digging and indiscriminate harvesting of wild medicinal materials, and the phenomenon of transport vehicles running over the grassland, and so on, which are very serious. Nowadays, more and more tourists like to go to Inner Mongolia to play self-driving tours, and they don't care what the road is, they just drive on the grassland, which is destroying the grassland.
Real herders, on the other hand, are very protective of pastures.
Take Bubaicang as an example, their pasture here is divided into five areas, some of which are specially for pregnant sheep to eat, they can't eat much grass; there are several pastures that do not graze sheep for fallow grazing all year round for maintenance, and there is another piece of grass that grows after maintenance for sheep to spread and gnaw, and every year three kinds of pastures are changed according to the plan, and they know how to protect it very well.
For true herders, the grassland is everything.
And the life here is more subversive of Yang Meng's imagination in terms of clothing, food, housing and transportation.
For example, when it comes to Inner Mongolia, people will think of milk wine, and when they drink it, they should dip their index finger and ring finger in the wine, and flick it into the sky, on the ground, and on their heads. Then take a dry γγγγγγ
In fact, most people here drink baijiu: milk wine is stronger than baijiu? For those who live on the prairie every day, spirits are good wines.
There's a joke about the people here: I've got wine here, oh, I'm going to get some meat, let's get some meat, I'm going to get some meat, oh, I'm going to get some wine, let's get some meat, I'm going to get some meat, I'm going to get some meat.
After all, the climate here is really not good, and the four seasons of the year can be summarized as: heavy snowfall, sandstorms, heavy rain, hail. I can't bear it if I don't drink some meat and eat some meat!
But they ate a lot of meat, and they ate it in a basin! Because they came a little late, they didn't have much preparation, they just put the meat in their hands, and filled the basin.
To put it bluntly, this hand meat is boiled mutton in clear water, some people add some yogurt and a little salt when cooking, and some simply don't add anything, and only dip it in salt when eating.
It doesn't sound very tasty, but when you actually eat it, you will find that ----- is really delicious!
Electrification is also very common in the house, and there are all kinds of water heaters------ after all, what kind of wind power and solar power generation is now engaged in in Inner Mongolia, and Bubaicang's own pasture has made people run wind power generation, can he lack electricity? What he lacks is water! The nearest river to his house is also on the pasture side, giving priority to horses and sheep.
There are several reservoirs built here in Bubaicang, and it has been raining continuously for the past few days, so there is water, otherwise it will be difficult for Yang Meng and them to take a hot bath.
But drinking with Mongolian friends, especially herders, is definitely a fatal act: as long as you hold up the glass, you will definitely be allowed to drink
Until drunk.
In the words of Bu Baicang: Although I am big here, it takes several hours for my friends to come and drive recently. How hard it is to meet a stranger!
You can't drink? That's right, go to bed when you're drunk, and just have a few more days here.
It is estimated that all the herdsmen in Inner Mongolia think so. That's why they're so passionate.
On this side, the relationship between Mong and Khan is very good, except for the occasional language problem, customs and other problems.
And there are historical reasons for this.
What many people don't know is: in fact, Inner Mongolia was established earlier than the Han State, and after the establishment of the Han State, the upper nobles of Inner Mongolia and the Han State reached an agreement to join the Han State to become an autonomous region, and several big families took turns to govern here, like the Wu family has been uploaded to the third generation in the position of the boss of the autonomous region, although there are people outside in the middle, but they are also considered 'insiders'. There used to be a joke that when other provincial governments meet, everyone greets them with 'Hello Governor', but here the meeting is 'Hello uncle', 'Hello uncle', 'Hello uncle'γγγγγγ
Of course, ridicule is ridicule, and Inner Mongolia is governed by them very well. Today, Inner Mongolia is undoubtedly the undisputed economic big brother of all the autonomous regions of the Han Kingdom.
The amount of alcohol in the cloth white warehouse is really not covered.
Yang Meng (without cheating), Hu Erstun, and Xiao Peng all have a good amount of alcohol, and it can be regarded as a 'big amount of alcohol' in the mainland, although Longteng is not as good as these three people, but it is not bad. But the four of them let Bu Baicang talk nonsense alone.
You let them drink beer? That's all kinds of drinking unaccustomed, drinking two bottles will support your stomach, but you let them come for nothing? Dude, this is no different from drinking water, is it?
Yang Meng and the others directly let Bu Baicang be poured into pieces.
But this sleep is really comfortable!
They have been playing in the grassland for a long time, this ran a big circle, in addition to making supplies back to the town, the main thing is to live in a tent, this to Bu Baicang's house to sleep comfortably, and when they wake up the next day, the sky outside has cleared, the blue sky and white clouds are particularly beautiful.
After Yang Meng walked out of the room, Bu Baicang was not at home, only Qi Muge was at home by himself, and breakfast had been prepared for Yang Meng and them. But I'm afraid this is useless work------ only Yang Meng got up alone, and the rest of them are still hangover there!
Breakfast is very simple, it is butter steamed bread with milk tea------ this Xilin Gol League belongs to the 'East Four League', the living habits here are more inclined to the northeast, I like to eat steamed rice and the like, if it is the west, I like to eat noodles more.
It was difficult for Yang Meng, who did not understand the language, to communicate with Qi Muge, but with the gestures, Yang Meng also understood the whereabouts of Bu Baicang: he went to herd sheep!
After drinking like this last night, can you get up early in the morning and go to herd sheep today?
No wonder the average life expectancy of people here is the lowest in the country, which really makes sense!
After eating and drinking, Qi Muge told Yang Meng something through gestures: Bu Baicang meant to let Yang Meng find him to ride a horse after breakfast.
Knowing the news, Yang Meng almost burst into tears with excitement------ they have been here for so long, and they haven't gone to any scenic spots to play, and now they finally have the opportunity to ride a horseγγγγγγ
He suspected that he had come to a fake Inner Mongolia.
