Rebirth 1975: Tore up the call-back order at the beginning

Early autumn in September, this is the best season of the year in Saibei Province!

There is neither the scorching heat of summer nor the biting cold wind of late autumn and winter.

In Saibei in September, the sun is warm and quiet, the autumn wind is warm and gentle, and the blue sky and white clouds are elegant and melodious.

Of course, what people yearn for most in autumn is its abundant fruits. The so-called fruity fragrance in September is just like the chrysanthemum yellow in September.

After entering September, two extremely important things happened in the village.

First things first, the kids start school!

No matter what time it is, it is something to be happy about when the beast returns to its cage.

In previous years, the parents were the happiest when the children started school, but this year was different. The children in the village were very excited when they learned that school was about to start.

Because they are finally going to get rid of the torture of those instructors!

Although it is just a simple run every day, standing in a military posture, and practicing in the queue, it is indeed a lot of torture for these lively and active children, and they are all looking forward to the start of school.

On September 1, that is, after ten days of military training, the children in the village finally got rid of the torture of the "instructors" and happily went to school with their schoolbags on their backs.

On the first day of school, Wang Ping'an and others personally conducted a detailed investigation of the situation of the enrolled children.

Then according to their age and reading situation, the grades and classes were reassigned.

After the adjustment, Babaoliang Primary School instantly felt like a shotgun change.

First of all, the number of students in the school increased from 200 to 920, almost catching up with the central school in the next town.

With more students, there will naturally be more classes. After the adjustment, the school has 6 grades and 15 classes.

Among them, there are 5 classes in 12 grades of primary school, with 60 students in each class.

There is only one grade one in junior middle school, which is divided into three classes, with 3 students in each class.

Secondly, there are more teachers in the school. The village has selected 34 teachers after examination and selection.

Although the educated youth still accounted for the vast majority, 15 family members stood out and successfully became the official teachers of Babaoliang Primary School.

At the same time, Zhou Yang also called the leaders of the county and city governments, hoping that they could assign some normal students and professionals in agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry and health to the village.

To this, both Li Changqing from the county and Wang Yongqing from the city readily agreed.

But at the same time, they also said that these people will not be in place until at least after the autumn harvest.

Fortunately, Zhou Yang also knows that this kind of thing cannot be completed in a day or two, and he is not in a hurry, as long as these people are in place before the results of the college entrance examination come out.

In addition to the opening of the school, another major event in the village is the opening of the autumn harvest!

On September 9th, the summer oats in Babaoliang Village officially started harvesting!

Following the order of the village party secretary Wang Ping, all factories in the entire Babaoliang Lianhe Village stopped working that day, and all young and strong laborers went to the field with sickles to harvest more than 3000 mu of summer naked oats.

The harvested naked oats are pulled to the village's threshing ground for drying on the same day, and the dried oats will be threshed almost immediately, and distributed to the members of the village as quickly as possible.

The yield of summer naked oats is low, and the taste of the produced naked oats is not very good, but this crop has a short growth cycle and can mature in as little as 90 days. It is a real life-saving food for ordinary people.

The people in Babao Liangben Village are not short of food, but most of the members of other villages have no food left in their homes. These summer naked oats are the earliest new food they can eat!

On September 9, 16 mu of summer naked oats were threshed!

On the day of threshing, according to the results of the village committee's discussion, first distribute a batch of summer naked oats to the educated youths in the village at the rate of [-] jin per person.

On that day, there was an endless stream of vehicles from various production teams coming to Babaoliang Village to transport grain, and the food distribution lasted until late at night, and the food of more than 700 people was finally distributed.

Afterwards, the rest of naked oats are dried and put into storage.

After the summer naked oats are harvested, the wheat is almost ripe.

According to the situation in previous years, in order to make the grains more plump, the village usually let the wheat grow in the ground for another ten or eight days.

But not this year. Under Zhou Yang's instruction, the wheat heads were harvested as soon as they turned yellow.

The 3500 mu of wheat was harvested in less than three days, and it only took a week to dry it.

Then there are millet and millet. Since the total is only two thousand mu, it will take another two or three days.

When October is about to enter, there are only three crops left in the fields of Babaoliang Lianhe Village: corn, sugar beets and potatoes.

But this does not mean that the task will be much easier. In fact, these three crops are the most planted in Babaoliang Village this year. Corn alone covers more than 1 mu, and the three crops add up to 9000 mu. Acres.

In comparison, the combined crops of wheat, naked oats, and millet are less than 9000 mu.

Seeing that there were less than 10 days left until mid-October, Zhou Yang was secretly worried.

You know, if you don't expect it, the first snow on the Saibei side this year will be in mid-October.

If the speed was slower, the hard-earned food might be buried in the ground by snow.

Fortunately, at the end of September, the 30 tractors and supporting agricultural machinery ordered by the village through the county finally arrived.

Zhou Yang immediately transferred a dozen soldiers who could drive tractors from the research institute, and trained a group of tractor drivers.

With the addition of this batch of agricultural machinery, the production efficiency has really improved a lot.

At that moment, Zhou Yang immediately asked Wang Ping, Zhang Genwang and others to hurry up and organize the educated youths to collect the beets and potatoes first, and the corn last.

After all, corn poles are high, and it is impossible for heavy snow to fall so deep that they cannot be buried.

But beets and potatoes are different. They are all root crops, and their fruits grow in the soil. If they are not careful, they may be frozen in the ground.

During this period, Zhou Yang couldn't bear it, and finally reminded Li Changqing in mid-September, telling him to hurry up and organize the common people to rush to collect them, so as to avoid accidents.

Although Zhou Yang didn't explain too much, Li Changqing was a vigilant person. He had already learned about the early opening of the sickle in Babaoliang Village.

Reminiscent of what Zhou Yang said, he stopped hesitating and immediately issued an order to the heads of all township communes in the county to seize them in advance.

Although many people don't understand why the county asked them to open the sickle half a month in advance, but orders are orders, and no one dares to disobey.

As a result, just after mid-September, the entire Yunshan County set off a vigorous seizure operation.

At first, the members of the production team below were not very happy, thinking that the county was messing around.

Harvest half a month in advance, and the grain output will be affected to some extent. After all, the last period of time is the key to whether the grain is full.

Therefore, many ordinary people scolded the county leaders while harvesting crops.

But soon they couldn't swear, and when October entered, the temperature dropped sharply.

Originally, at the beginning of October in previous years, it was the season of high autumn and good weather. Generally, there would be frost in mid-October, and snow in late October and early November.

However, when they opened their eyes on October 10 this year, everyone was horrified to find that there was frost in the ground, and the grass and vegetables that had grown fairly well yesterday were all frozen.

Frost is the most direct harbinger of rapid cooling, and at the same time tells the commune members that there is not much time left for them to harvest crops.

Now, the crowd didn't care about cursing, and they rushed to collect the crops in the field day and night.

Let’s go back to Babaoliang Village. When others harvest naked oats and wheat, they are already harvesting sugar beets.

5000 mu of sugar beets, if normal, will take at least 10 days.

But with the addition of so many agricultural machinery, it only took 6 days to collect all of them.

Then there are potatoes, which are all in the soil. When harvesting, either use a shovel or an iron to dig, or use a plow to plow the field along the field ridges, and then use a hoe to dig out the potatoes buried in the soil.

All in all, without large-scale agricultural machinery, harvesting potatoes is extremely time-consuming and labor-intensive.

Even though Babaoliang Lianhe Village had tractors and more than 2000 laborers, it still harvested [-] mu of potatoes for seven or eight days.

On October 10th, after the potatoes were harvested, Wang Ping immediately organized the people in the village to try their best to harvest ten thousand mu of corn.

Relatively speaking, corn is relatively easy to harvest.

The people in front cut down the corn stalks with sickles, and the educated youths behind them broke off the corn stalks and loaded them into the truck.

In the end, there will be specialized members who will tie up the corn stalks and load them into trucks, and take them to various feed factories to process them into biological feed.

However, just three days after the corn was harvested in the village, it snowed in Yunshan County...
