First batch of wheat that Border Town plants welcomed the harvesting date finally. 边陲镇种下的第一批小麦终于迎来了收割日。 The serfs are going against scalding hot sunlight, cuts off the straw with the sickle, one bunch ties up to transport to the river opposite shore. 农奴们顶着灼热的阳光,用镰刀割断麦秆,一捆捆扎起来运往河对岸。 Roland knows that from the wheat ear to the grain of wheat is a very tedious process, before the mechanical farm tool and combine are underused, the grain of wheat needs to carry on the separation, to clean up, screen and air-dries artificially. Now, he witnessed this process again. 罗兰知道从麦穗到麦粒是一个十分繁琐的过程,在机械农具和联合收割机尚未普及之前,麦粒都需要人工来进行分离、清理、筛选、晾晒。现在,他再一次目睹了这个过程。 After the straw ships back camp, the serf allocates them on the ground seasons, completely is then useful with various tool-- anything: The wooden club, stone and raker go forth to battle entirely, strikes the straw and wheat ear repeatedly, making the caryopsis be separated from the outer covering, this process often must continue for 34 days. But in Roland memory, the rural area with the cow or the donkey, draws the stone roll to press in the valley field, not only reduces effort, the peeling off the shell effect also ratio strikes wants evenly many. 麦秆运回营地后,农奴将它们平摊在地上晒干,接着用各种工具——完全是有什么用什么:木棍、石头、耙子统统上阵,反复敲打麦秆和麦穗,让颖果脱离外壳,这一过程往往要持续34天。而在罗兰的记忆里,农村都是用牛或者驴子,拉着石碾在谷场压来压去,不仅省力许多,脱壳效果也比敲打的要均匀不少。 Has saying that the small town agricultural level was really too backward. 不得不说,小镇的农业水平实在是太落后了。 After firing off, is to turn the field, similarly is useful anything, replaces with the wooden club without the fork, or grabs the straw to toss to the space with both hands directly, is similar to turns the pot stir-fried dish to be ordinary. After striking of earlier period, the outer covering of caryopsis mostly burst, this process is to let the fruit and wheat ear separates. 打完后就是翻场,同样是有啥用啥,没有叉子就用木棍代替,或者直接用双手抓着麦秆向天上抛洒,如同翻锅炒菜一般。经过前期的敲打后,颖果的外壳大多已破裂,这一过程则是让果实与麦穗分离。 Some wheat straw actually many functions after seed extraction, after the smashing, can return the field, can serve as the domestic animal pad grass, but can also make the feed and papermaking, but Roland does not have the free time to develop the green industry at this moment, has to look that the serfs arrive at the riverside these wheat straw piles, burnt down entirely. Over the next few days, small town above all day is fluttering the dusky haze, endures compared with the beforehand cement flour pollution. 脱粒后的麦秸其实有许多作用,粉碎后可以还田,可以用作家畜垫草,还可以制作饲料和造纸,但罗兰此刻也没工夫发展绿色产业,只好看着农奴们将这些麦秸堆到河边,统统一把火烧了。接下来的几天里,小镇上空整日飘扬着灰蒙蒙的烟气,堪比之前的水泥粉污染。 Meanwhile, the Scarlet Water Bridge two spindle islands have also cleaned up, according to planning to carry on the retention wall construction. The foundation bridge pier used to irrigate to include the section and steel bar concrete column in the open area with main span similar prefabrication way-- first, then carried on „reduction hoisting”, finally was responsible for sinking to the soil by Lotus it, only revealed the half steel plate, the waiting and pontic were connected. 与此同时,赤水桥的两块纺锤型岛屿也已清理完毕,正在按计划进行挡水墙施工。基础桥墩则采用了与主桥同样的预制方式——先在空地里浇出含有型钢和钢筋的混凝土柱,再进行“减重吊装”,最后由莲负责将其沉入泥土中,只露出半截钢板,等待与桥体相连。 Therefore in this week of time, Roland basically shakes between Scarlet Water Bridge and valley Chang, the skin was tanned much. 因此这一周的时间里,罗兰基本就在赤水桥和谷场之间晃悠,皮肤都被晒黑了不少。 After the wheat straw was forked, valley Changli on only remaining a grain of wheat and hull. 等到麦秸被叉出去后,谷场里就只剩下了一层麦粒和谷壳。 The serfs sweep the same place them, piles up hills, then stands on the hill, shovels the mixture with the shovel, ejects toward the front open area. Because the hull is much lighter than the fruit, in wind sways the whereabouts distance to be farther, what therefore the under foot sprinkles is the grain of wheat, but the distant place is the empty shell and fragments-- people then through such method, collects step by step the grain. 农奴们把它们扫到一块,堆积成一个个小山包,接着站在山包上,用铲子铲起混合物,朝前方的空地抛出。由于谷壳比果实轻得多,在风的吹拂下落地距离要更远,因此脚下洒落的是麦粒,而远处则是空壳和碎屑——众人便是通过这样的方法,一步步将粮食收集起来。 Naturally, wants to clean up the hull completely cleanly is the impossible matter, moreover this process will also make in the grain of wheat mix in the mud and sand and crushed stone, therefore Roland decides, when by next year harvesting date, he must be ready a number of mechanical farm tool-- combines to estimate that beforehand cannot make, but the decorticator is very easy to realize, but changed into the grinding pan the stone roll, under installs the strainer, and separates the disruption with the air blower the hull. 当然,想将谷壳完全清理干净是不可能的事情,而且这一过程还会让麦粒中混入泥巴和砂石,因此罗兰打定主意,待到明年收割日时,他一定要事先预备好一批机械农具——联合收割机估计是造不出来,但脱壳机还是挺容易实现的,不过是将石碾换成了磨盘,并且在下方加装筛网,并用鼓风机分离碎裂的谷壳。 When full grains of wheat by even even shop/spread in the valley field, as if were caught golden color entire Scarlet Water River north bank. Looked at these shining fruits, Roland has been feeling the sense of achievement at heart. The grain that no matter harvests enough fills more than 10,000 people of bellies, at least regarding Border Town, this is commemorable one day. 当一颗颗饱满的麦粒被均匀的平铺在谷场上时,仿佛将整个赤水河北岸染上了一层金色。望着这些金灿灿的果实,罗兰心里充满了成就感。不管收获的粮食够不够填饱10000多人的肚子,至少对于边陲镇来说,这是值得纪念的一天。 Starting today, the grain in his territory from completely will rely on the import to produce the self sufficient transformation gradually. 从今天起,他领地里的粮食将从完全依赖进口逐渐向自产自足转变。 Air-dries three days later, the wheat was in the bagging weighing stage. 晾晒三天后,小麦进入了装袋称量阶段。 „Your highness, this time unexpectedly is the bumper crop!” the same day in the afternoon, Barov then in high spirits ran in the office, „according to the City Hall initial statistics, the yield per mu of each responsible plot were least is also the past over four times, highest at present has achieved six times, like this calculated, this year's crop enough filled the belly of citizen.” “殿下,这次竟是大丰收！”当天下午,巴罗夫便兴冲冲地跑进了办公室,“根据市政厅初步统计,每块责任田的亩产量最少也是往日的四倍以上,最高的目前达到了六倍,这样算下来,今年的收成足够填饱领民的肚子了。” „Right,” Roland cannot bear say with a smile, „looked like the building granary in castle area does not need to empty finally.” “是吗,”罗兰忍不住笑道,“看来城堡区的新修粮仓总算不用一直空着了。” „You know that what this does mean?” The City Hall Prime Minister facial expression seems him is more excited, „small town only need increase 2000 farmers again, can satisfy 50,000-60,000 people of food consumptions! This is simply inconceivable, small town can definitely expand the Greycastle hugest city, not......” his paused, „in mainland grandest city!” “您知道这意味着什么吗？”市政厅总管的神情看上去比他还要激动,“小镇只需再增加2000名农夫,就能满足五六万人的粮食消耗！这简直不可思议,小镇完全可以扩张成灰堡最庞大的城市,不……”他顿了顿,“大陆上最宏伟的城市！” This age urban population cannot enhance, the primary cause is the grain capacity is low, more than 20,000 people of the big cities like Kingdom Capital, has needed the surrounding dozens villages to provide food for it. Each village almost 1,000-2,000 population, if there is half to be engaged in the agricultural cultivation, the synthesis calculates that is almost 20,000 people raises 20,000 people. In other words, grain that a farmer delivers, besides supporting oneself and family member, most supplies city people again. 这个年代城市人口提高不上去,主要原因就是粮食产能低下,像王都这样20000余人的大城,就已经需要周围数十个村庄为其提供食物。每个村庄差不多一两千人口,若有一半从事农业耕种的话,综合算下来几乎是20000人养20000人。也就是说,一名农夫所产出的粮食,除了养活自己和家人外,最多再供应一位城市居民。 The invisible restriction of so-called productive forces lies in this, perhaps Barov is very difficult to imagine, after mechanized planter popularization, is only output of person sufficiently supports several tens of thousands people. Border Town in not having the promoted and under situation of development agricultural technology obtains like this bumper crop, the main merit lies in the Leaf transformation " Golden No. 1 " on. 所谓生产力的无形制约就在于此,恐怕巴罗夫很难想象到,当机械化种植普及后,光是一个人的产出就足以养活数万人。边陲镇在没有推广及发展农业技术的情况下取得这样的大丰收,主要功劳就在于叶子改造的「黄金一号」上。 Exhausts possibly few farmers to support more people, liberates from the farmland manpower natural resource, the revolutions invests into the industrial production during, this is the strategy that Roland sets from the beginning. Now Ministry of Agriculture obtained the best planter flow, in addition next year will have the iron farm tool and machinery to participate in the cultivation, the average per person output will be definitely getting higher and higher. 用尽可能少的农民养活更多的人,把人力资源从农田上解放出来,转投入到工业生产之中,这是罗兰一开始就定下的策略。如今农业部已获得了最佳种植流程,加上来年还会有铁质农具、机械参与耕种,人均产量必然会越来越高。 ...... …… At dusk, Roland, in Scarlet Water River held the bonfire speech-- time as if to return four months ago that dusk, similarly was the bonfire and dense crowd of flaming combustion, as well as shone on the people face finally wipes the afterglow. What is only different is the facial expression of everyone, the anticipation that the horridness and restlessness when compared with new arrival, their on the face is brimming with abundant harvest joyful and cannot conceal now. 傍晚时分,罗兰在赤水河边举行了篝火演讲——时间仿佛又回到了四个月前的那个黄昏,同样是熊熊燃烧的篝火、黑压压的人群、以及映照在众人脸上的最后一抹余晖。唯独不同的是每个人的神情,比起初来乍到时的惶恐和不安,现在他们脸上洋溢着丰收的喜悦和掩饰不住的期待。 Roland puts out a hand to below wields, the scene is peaceful immediately. All people turn very quiet, waited for that the prince keeps his promise. 罗兰伸手向下一挥,现场顿时安静下来。所有人都屏住呼吸,等待王子实现他的诺言。 „I know what you want to hear is anything,” he not according to the past convention, first was placed oneself given name and name in front, but said straightforwardly, „-- I can also tell you without a doubt, the promotion rule that before announced that is still valid now, and has continued!” “我知道你们想要听到的是什么,”他没有按照往常的惯例,先将自己的名号和称谓摆在前面,而是直截了当地说道,“——我也可以毫无疑问地告诉你们,之前宣布的晋升规则,如今依然有效,而且会一直持续下去！” Only was these words detonates the atmosphere, the people could not suppress shouts makes noise, many people have knelt, extolled the benevolence of prince. „Sir feudal lord long live!” „long live His Highness the Prince!” 光是这一句话就引爆了现场的气氛,众人抑制不住地呼喊出声,不少人跪了下来,赞颂王子的仁慈。“领主大人万岁！”“王子殿下万岁！” „And other turning in grain weighing ended, the promotion list also meets one to be announced,” treats to the call subsides slightly, Roland then said, „will become the freemen later arrangement will be responsible for by City Hall, you can choose to continue to cultivate, can seek his duty in small town in addition.” “等上缴粮食称量结束,晋升名单也会一并公布,”待到呼声稍稍平息,罗兰接着说道,“成为自由民之后的安排将由市政厅负责,你们可以选择继续耕种,也可以在小镇里另谋他职。” „Moreover starting from the next year, so long as the crop meets this time promotion standard, even if the output has not arranged at the front row, can become freemen. In other words, so long as the diligent practical training, certainly can get rid of status-- of serf, just like I said that work creation wealth, work change destiny.” He stops the moment, looks all around, „I hope in future a day, Border Town no longer the serf, all people can become my true citizen.” “另外从明年起,只要收成达到此次的晋升标准,即使产量没有排在前列,也可以成为自由民。换句话说,只要勤奋劳作,就一定能摆脱农奴的身份——正如我所说的,劳动创造财富,劳动改变命运。”他停顿片刻,环顾四周,“我希望在将来的一天,边陲镇将不再有一名农奴,所有人都能成为我真正的领民。” The Roland voice just fell, the cheers of people resound through sky over Scarlet Water River instantaneously, for a very long time. 罗兰的话音刚落,人们的欢呼声瞬间响彻赤水河上空,久久不息。
