Remember [39 .] in one second, wonderful free reading without pop-ups!

The matter of learning horses was decided, but as soon as the tools were in place, everyone went to cultivate the fields. Sang Yuan had already inquired about the production of local crops, and in his previous life, he knew that Xinjiang was the main cotton-producing area, so the cultivation of cotton was listed first.

You can't eat it, but you need it to make clothes!

Food, clothing, housing and transportation, clothing is in the first place!

As for what is eaten, it is mainly wheat. Others, such as potatoes and sweet potatoes, are also easy to grow, but rice has to find another place. Fortunately, most people in the west eat vegetarian things such as tsamba and bread, and Sang Yuan has enough time to research crops suitable for growing here.

When Sang Yuan started to get busy, Mo Xiaobao was left alone. Wake up every day at the same time as the adults wake up, and spend the whole day on the grass by the river.

The herding boy was not settled in the clan of the patriarch that Sang Yuan was looking for, but a nomad from another tribe. As a result, grazing is allowed only in that meadow and cannot continue into the tribe.

Mo Xiaobao was in a panic, as long as he saw the boy, he would run over to play with him. I also learned the name of the boy, Gugli Shaman.

Mo Xiaobao was not easy to pronounce his name, so the young man asked him to just call him a shaman. However, Mo Xiaobao is so good, how can he call him by his name? immediately took a bite of a shaman brother, so that the young man took good care of him.

By the time Sang Yuan finished cultivating and remembered Mo Xiaobao, he was already very familiar with the young shaman. Let Xi Shao silently come out of the three-character scripture and give Mo Xiaobao a back, and he has to practice calligraphy and martial arts every day to lay a foundation, so that Mo Xiaobao fell into the abyss in an instant.

The shaman watched him recite the three-character scripture while gritting his teeth and squatting on the horse, and asked him curiously what was the use of it. Mo Xiaobao only said that it was useful, but he couldn't explain what it was for, which made the shaman laugh for a long time.

However, the three-character scripture made the shaman learn, and he followed his half-baked recitation, and occasionally pronounced it wrong, or went out of tune, and he would be laughed at by Mo Xiaobao. came and went, but it relieved Mo Xiaobao's pressure.

"Gugli! Gugli! ”

The two were having fun, but a roar came, obviously anxious.

"Suffered!" As soon as the shaman heard the cry, he left Mo Xiaobao, turned over and got into the foal, and walked in the direction from which the sound came.

Mo Xiaobao didn't know what was going on, and watched him ride away from a distance, stunned. After a while, the herd of cattle and sheep was gone.

When Sang Yuan and the others returned to their residence, they heard a mess of noise outside. I asked for it, and it was only said that there were livestock that had spoiled the wheat fields.

At this time, it is the time when wheat grows, and cattle and sheep also like to eat it, and if they don't look at it, they will destroy a lot. Well, just shouting is unlikely!

Sure enough, after a while, I heard someone shouting for compensation, but most of the words were in the local dialect, and everyone could only watch the excitement, but they didn't know the specific situation at all.

After the crowd dispersed, Sang Yuan saw the patriarch of the tribe and the clansman who could speak Chinese coming over.

"Mr. Sang Yuan, let you see the joke, but we would like to ask, is there a way to prevent livestock from spoiling the fields?"

This kind of thing also exists in the mainland, but there are few grazing animals in the interior, and they are all raised in captivity, so there are fewer times when livestock spoil the fields.

When Sang Yuan was in Baihua Village, he didn't see anyone herding cattle and sheep, so this question stumped him.

What's more, the large area of the field is unlikely to be used for protection.

When he was silent, the hearts of the chief and the people sank. The fields by the river are their main food producing areas, and they are wasted several times a year, and there is no way to solve them, which is a headache.

"Patriarch, I don't have a good way to deal with this, I'm sorry." Sang Yuan has his own set of planting methods and cultivation methods, but he has little to do with protection.

What's more, the purpose of his visit here is to plant trees, to see if he can reduce the deforestation of poplar forests and recreate the glory of ancient times.

Although the poplar tree can be used as a windbreak for the field, it cannot prevent cattle and sheep from entering. If you want to stop the cattle and sheep, you have to fill the gap between the trees with something.

Sang Yuan had just started sowing seeds at this time, and he had to teach the people given by the patriarch to cultivate knowledge, and he couldn't find a solution for a while.

"Then we won't bother you." Unable to get effective advice, the patriarch shook his head with some sighs, and the clansmen who could speak Chinese could only leave.

"Luckily, we chose a place far from the river, and we weren't afraid of livestock running over." As soon as the patriarch left, Mo Wen and the others sighed.

Only those who cultivate the land can understand the sadness after the field is ruined.

"Well, this kind of thing is unavoidable, after all, you can't fence off all the fields. Moreover, even if it is a fence, it may not be able to stop it. Sang Yuan saw it very openly, and put this matter aside.

If he can think of a way to solve it, he will not hide it. But I didn't expect that he wouldn't bother. Sometimes, there may be unexpected surprises when you look at the opening point.

Let everyone do their own thing, he and Xi Shao went to the kitchen to cook for everyone.

Originally, everyone took turns cooking, but the level of cooking was miserable, so Sang Yuan and Xi Shao and a few others who could cook took care of it.

When he arrived at the kitchen, a soldier brother was sorting out a pile of wattle-shaped firewood, and when he saw Sang Yuan and the two coming in, he hurriedly reminded: "Brother Sang, this sand willow branch has thorns, you should be careful when you use it for a while, don't be pricked." ”

"Is this a sand willow branch?" Sang Yuan always thought that the sand willow was similar to the willow tree, but this branch had spikes, and it was not as slender as the willow branch.

"This sand willow branch is what the locals say is the best firewood, so we followed them and chopped some back. When I heard the name, I thought it was similar to a willow tree, but it turned out to be this kind of spiky branches, a puffy long, taller than a person! ”

The eldest brother of the soldier has been following him since Zhan Feng first arrived in Baihua Village, and he is also very close to Sang Yuan, so he naturally told everything he saw at this time. There was a look of surprise in that look.

Sang Yuan's eyes lit up when he heard that it was growing one by one. I didn't know what to do just now, didn't this happen?

"Big brother, next time you want to chop firewood, take me to see this sand willow, okay?"

"Okay! Call you tomorrow when I go! The big brother knew that he was never simply curious, so he naturally agreed. smiled and packed up the firewood, and helped them light the fire.

The next day, Mo Xiaobao did not see the shaman by the river, and Sang Yuan and Xi Shao followed the big brother to cut sand willow branches.

Seeing the dense sand willows, growing vigorously one by one, Brother Bing also specially explained to them which branches were newborn and which were branches that could be cut.

"These shaluken are very alive, and the locals say that as long as you bury a branch in the sand, you can grow into a big tent in the second year, and the fire will be prosperous!"

Sang Yuan saw that the branches were intertwined, picked up a wooden stick and tried to poke it in, and obviously felt a resistance. Then he took a sturdy cloth and wrapped his hand in it, and stretched it inside. I wanted to try to go through, but I was pulled out by Xi Shao.

"If you want to try, prepare something, protect yourself, and try again!"

The spikes on those branches could be seen with the naked eye, and his head was not protected, and it was not worth scratching his face or anything.

Even if a man has a little scar, it's not a big deal, but the injuries that can be avoided are still gone! What's more, what to do with those thorns that pierce the eyes?

Sang Yuan would never argue with him about this kind of thing, and there was a person next to him who read jokes. helplessly signaled to the soldier brother to chop wood, and then secretly pinched Xi Shao.

Xi Shao smiled unhesitantly, snatched the cloth he wrapped in his hand, wrapped it around his hand, and helped the soldier brother chop wood.

In the end, when they went back, Sang Yuan didn't try it himself, but Zhan Feng went to play a game, and he was pierced and screamed, but it was confirmed that he could block the cattle and sheep.

So, Sang Yuan went to the patriarch again and asked people to start planting sand willow in the position between the grass and the field. Anyway, if you have more, you can also chop it for firewood, and it won't cause any trouble.

The locals will plant salix, so they don't need Sang Yuan to pay too much attention, but before the salix grows, those fields still need to be watched so as not to be ruined again.

By the way, Sang Yuan asked the patriarch again for the contracting right of Poplar Forest. The patriarch didn't care what he wanted the trees to do, he just said that when they needed them, he had to let them cut down the trees, and there was no condition.

Sang Yuan knew their wooden bowl craftsmanship and felt that there was no problem, so he agreed.

Cut it down and plant it again! It's nothing!

However, no one expected that after the sand willow fence grew, it was like a long green dragon, blocking the field. Except for frightened cattle that broke in, there was no other rudiment of the fields.

For a while, the people of the local tribe were very grateful to Sang Yuan.

Sang Yuan himself didn't expect that the sand willow could really be used as a protective fence, but now that he has seen the effect, he is ready to continue to use it. After all, those sand willows grow well on the sand outside the poplar forest. If they can expand the arable land, or expand the poplar forest, then their purpose has been achieved!

Half a year has passed, and the sand willow fence on the edge of the field has grown vigorously, and the fields reclaimed by Sang Yuan and their families have also begun to harvest. Even the willows and small poplar trees planted in the sand outside the poplar forest have survived.

Looking at that thriving development prospect, Sang Yuan felt that he had finally achieved something!

The local tribesmen also began to cultivate efficiently, and even the original wheat fields were renovated to make the already vast wheat look more neat.

When the first crop is ripe, the dominant crops suitable for this side are also selected, and then the next crop is planted.

Sang Yuan is very strict about this, and he wants to cultivate a batch of high-yield crops suitable for the local area!
