Victoria Province itself is named after the Uyghur people, and many people will think that it is full of Uyghurs.

In fact, this is a delusion, and there are no or very few Uighurs in many places.

Generally speaking, Uyghurs are mainly concentrated in southern and eastern Xinjiang, and there are very few in northern Xinjiang, and in some places there is no at all.

Of course, there are also many Uyghur compatriots in the provincial capital city of Wushi.

With China's great immigration policy, people who want to go out have gone to the hinterland of the Central Plains.

Now, the Uighurs are barely a minority province.

In a few years, perhaps this title will not live up to its name.

The population base of the Han nationality, even if the population of Indochina is integrated, accounts for the vast majority.

Otherwise, why would the state implement a family planning policy? It's because our country has too many people.

In some minority areas, it is possible to have more children, but that is because the number of ethnic groups is not large, and it is not because the state implements different policies towards the Han nationality and ethnic groups.

Some ethnic minorities, such as the Oroqen and the like, have a total of several thousand people.

If they are allowed to implement the family planning policy, it will be a question of how many years from now that this ethnic group will still exist.

As the southernmost county of Ouluotai, although the name of the county is named after the Mongolian Autonomous County, the Uyghurs are the largest county in the whole of northern Xinjiang.

In the era of reform and opening up, it was not only the Han people who were shrewd.

Where there are business opportunities, there are Uighurs.

Zephyr was the first area to be developed in Oulothai, even now. There are also many more business opportunities than elsewhere.

According to incomplete statistics, there are more than 20,000 Uighurs living in Hofeng County.

This number is not worth mentioning in Turpan, where Zhang Qianfan started. But in comparison with the various counties of Oulothai, it is still quite impressive.

The Naadam Festival, led by Secretary Wu, has caused a sensation across the country.

This is Zhao Desheng's last appearance in Zephyr and Oulothai, and he also wants to use the Muslim Eid al-Adha festival to draw a perfect end to his tenure.

Who knows, as soon as the news that Zephyr was going to hold Eid al-Adha, all the places where Uyghurs gathered were boiling.

Nima, that's a Japanese wind!

Besides. Eid al-Adha is not just a Uyghur holiday, it is a festival for all Muslims.

So, you can see. The streets are full of Hui, Uyghur, Kazakh, Uzbek, Tajik, Tatar, Kyrgyz, Sarah, Dongxiang, and security from all over the world.

"Lao Zhao, how many ethnic compatriots have come?" Wushan couldn't help but take a breath when he saw so many ethnic minorities coming.

"Secretary, I haven't received specific statistics yet." Zhao Desheng smiled bitterly: "But the people who came to the Japanese style." I think there should be at least 50,000 people. ”

"If every town was so lively. 100,000 people can't stop it. "Li Kaijun was born in the army, and he is still quite sensitive to numbers.

The soldiers gathered together, and 10,000 people could not see their heads.

The county town of Hefeng has been expanded, and the current town area is not much lower than that of the regional station.

The towns here are not like the big cities, with narrow streets and low buildings.

The streets of Zephyr are as wide as Oulothai, and the area is not much different from that of a large and medium-sized city with a population of 500,000.

Rao is so. Ethnic minorities rubbed shoulders on the streets, and the police officers who maintained order were sweating profusely. From time to time, the streets are clogged up.

The Japanese Mosque is the largest in the whole of Victoria, and I have never heard of a mosque in the whole world that is bigger than here.

Although the mosque is not only used by Mongolians, all Muslims will come here to do activities, but after all, it is also a mosque, right?

"Secretary, this Eid al-Adha, I just plan to ask the government to announce the start." Zhao Desheng smiled: "All activities, our government will not interfere." ”

"That's for the best." Wu Shan knew that his little Jiujiu was not because no matter what Lao Zhao did, it would not exceed the last Naadam Festival.

Otherwise, this Zhao Desheng is not a fuel-efficient lamp, even within the Witch system, he will compete for strength.

Of course, no matter how awesome he is, he doesn't dare to have a long time with Wushan.

The Japanese breeze of October is full of festive atmosphere.

A few days after the National Day is celebrated by one of Islam's biggest religious holidays: Eid al-Adha.

In the past few days, there has been a marked increase in the number of young Han and Uighur people who have held weddings in Hefeng.

Not to mention other places, there are a total of fifteen Han couples in the Hefeng Hotel.

In the evening of the county square, the sound of suona and drums continued, and from time to time there were wedding convoys passing by in the music.

Walk into Hebuke East Street from the vicinity of the old county government, turn left into the market lane, and the people who sell sheep and buy sheep during the New Year are crowded.

Thousands of people came to the market, and the sheep trade was unprecedented.

The Prophet Ibraim dreamed of Allah "Allah" at night, and Allah commanded him to kill his beloved son Ismayi in order to sacrifice his loyalty.

Ibraim then complied, but Allah, reciting his sincerity, ordered the gods to send a sheep and ordered it to be slaughtered instead of offering a son.

Since then, the custom of annual slaughter and sacrifice has gradually developed among the Arab people.

Turgan, a clay potter from a suburban dwelling, went to attend the wedding of his wife, sister and children in the morning.

In the afternoon, the wife and daughter brought the children to the wedding banquet.

The bride who meditates with her head covered patiently waits for the groom's wedding, and the wedding is lively with the groom's cries and the groom's friends' singing and dancing.

The next day, the family discussed the cost of buying sheep for the Chinese New Year: the closer to the Chinese New Year, the more expensive the sheep became.

If you buy the sheep in advance, you can put them in the small yard at home and keep them in captivity.

After some arguments, Turgan took money from a kettle at home, went to the dentist to fill his teeth, paid 20 yuan for a year, and bought some local specialties from friends.

Because he was a good friend, he bought 20 wooden urine tubes and 9 hanging hoists for babies in the cradle, and spent a total of 8 yuan.

In the end, the husband and wife spent 45 yuan together on the market to buy a large ram.

During the festival, Chinese and foreign tourists continue to come to the door. When the photography enthusiasts in the capital entered the door with long guns and short guns, Turgan's wife skillfully put on sunglasses and a headscarf, and snuggled up to the door of the clay pottery showroom to pose for everyone to take pictures.

Turgan's son, Choi Yong-seung, a Goryeo friend of Tuhongjiang. I come to their house every year.

Recently, he plans to work with friends from Goryeo who have come to do business, and if the negotiation is successful, he will be living in the Japanese.

He speaks Chinese well, and he likes Uyghur culture very much, and has a good relationship with Tuhongjiang like a brother.

In Yanhuang Supermarket, people preparing New Year's goods are bustling, and everyone is shopping for food, clothes, etc. In contrast, the latest to close were the shoe shops.

Compared with the hustle and bustle of Yanhuang, a teahouse in the old town of Hefeng is particularly leisurely, and the old people still listen to the songs of Kerim slowly. Let's talk about it.

Drink a pot of tea, eat a naan, roll a run-in cigarette, as usual. Spend a few relaxing hours together.

October 4th. The atmosphere of the New Year is even stronger.

Early in the morning, Maimaiti drove a cart of clay pottery wholesale from Aili and Turgan's house, and moved the clay pottery into the warehouse with the help of his sister, wife, and daughter.

His father had a shop at the Huapan Bazaar at the intersection of Market Lane and Dongqu Lane, selling pottery and porcelain from the mainland.

The locally produced clay pottery is mainly used as flower pots and jars, and there are very few people who use them.

These fragile and fragile clay pottery is gradually being seen as a work of art.

With the acceleration of the pace of reform, the clay pottery is simple and elegant, and the meaning contained in it is not given by the anxious modern people.

The fragility and pride, roughness and delicacy of clay pottery seem to have been integrated into some of the characteristics of this people who live on mountain cliffs.

Turgan operated a human-driven turntable. While talking to tourists about how to make jewelry for Zuò.

Many families have already bought sheep, and the workshop of the Aili family has not stopped. The finished clay pottery is neatly arranged.

Other people's children play outside, his youngest son helps carry fired pottery, and his youngest daughter is used as a model by tourists who come to take pictures from time to time.

In the afternoon, Dongqu Lane was still bustling and full of people. Sanitation workers in Dongqu Lane raid the streets to sweep sheep manure.

In Zephyr, the same traffic control measures as the Oulothai have not yet been implemented.

The police car in front of the No. 2 police station turned around and left, followed by a large group of sheep leaving in a group.

As night wore on, the sound of chanting came from the dark mosque, and the people who came to pray for the evening in the mosque poured in.

At 6 a.m. on October 5, people kept coming from all over the world to worship at the Wafeng Mosque.

People want to have a place to worship here on Eid al-Adha.

People from various communities came in a procession under the leadership of the imam, stopping every few dozen meters to recite a sutra with the imam.

The early morning prayer is the largest of the year, with all adult men reciting the Qur'an and commemorating the Prophet and praising the sages.

At around 9 o'clock in the morning, 50,000 or 60,000 people had already gathered in the square.

The big mullah tong guò tweeter began to preside over the gathering and preaching.

All the Muslims in the square listened to him religiously and prayed to the melodious chanting of the scriptures.

In front of the Zefu Mosque after the prayer, people dance shamanic dances to the sound of suona and tambourines, singing and dancing guò to entertain the gods, channel the gods and séance.

After the service, Turgan returned home and pulled the sheep from the sheepfold to the yard to be slaughtered.

After slaughter, the meat is divided into three parts, one for one's own use, one for relatives and friends, and one for the poor.

After the sheep was slaughtered, the wife and daughter fried the fresh mutton, and the Turgan family gathered around them to talk and eat.

Business was good for the New Year, and the son-in-law had a meal in a hurry, and he was about to rush to work with Shtologai.

The youngest daughter and son-in-law started a family in Balian, near 184.

The eldest daughter and son-in-law sold roast mutton in Yuenan City, and they haven't come back for the New Year for 2 years.

In the market alley, there are still scattered flocks of sheep waiting for the buyer to arrive.

But almost all the shops and restaurants were closed, and people returned to their homes from the streets and bazaars to greet and visit each other, which became the most important ritual in the following days.

Turgan went to the homes of relatives and friends to congratulate the festival.

The wife stayed at home and kept talking to friends on the phone, putting on the festive food, boiling tea and preparing water, and standing still in her spare time, looking at the direction of the Hebuk River for a long time.

The neighbor's children swing quietly.

In the wordless old city time, the new year begins.

In the past few days, Wushan has been at Turgan's house, like an ordinary person, enjoying the Muslim New Year with them. (To be continued......)
