西藏千年岩井村的女人,每天泡盐水里10小时,养活丈夫

Yanjing Township, Mangkang County, Qamdo City, Tibet, the only salt-producing area in eastern Tibet, northern Yunnan, northern Yunnan, and western Sichuan . Salt fields supported by wooden piles are arranged neatly on both sides of the Lancang River. This is a unique cultural landscape of salt wells. The oldest salt field in the world.

The art of salt production is being performed here in Tibet long before the Tubo Dynasty. Salt production has begun here and has a history of thousands of years. As a business card, salt wells attract a large number of tourists here every year. Few tourists know that in this beautiful scenery

What kind of journey did the Yanjing people go through behind the scenes ? This magical thousand-year-old salt field is silently telling people the story of the past. Tsering Lhamo is a villager in Jiada Village, Yanjing Township. The first thing she did after getting up today

Was to come to Simmering mulberry in front of the mulberry stove on the roof, praying for blessings from Tsering Lhamo, he recited scriptures with sincerity and sincerity . While praying for family happiness and peace, he also thanked God for the gift of this land.

Jiada Village is located in Yanjing Township, Mangkang County, Qamdo City. The climate here is pleasant and the scenery is beautiful. People live a comfortable and comfortable life. Although it is located in a deep mountain canyon, it has a high reputation in eastern Tibet.

The Lancang River canyon where Jiada Village is located is a famous salt-producing area in Tibet. The salt fields here are very shaped. It is strange that they are all built in the air and supported by wooden piles. They are unique in the world. The salt fields are built according to the mountains.

They are distributed from low to high like terraces on both sides of the Lancang River. They are very spectacular. What is even more peculiar is the soil and geological conditions on both sides of the Lancang River. The color of salt is very different between the two sides

. The salt produced on the east coast is white. The salt produced on the west coast is red. The bottom of the salt field can also produce salt. The salt water penetrates the soil and grows like ice at the bottom of the salt field , forming strips of salt lings

Of different lengths. It is the most precious salt produced in the salt fields. People will harvest it from time to time. The salt fields here belong to three villages. In addition to Jiada Village, there are also Shangyanjing Village and Xiayanjing Village on the east bank of the Lancang River.

There are more than 3,000 salt fields in total. Millions of kilograms of salt can be produced every year. For the villagers who have lived here for generations, salt has been their source of income since ancient times . Tsering Lhamo’s family has 20 salt fields. The husband is in the furniture business

And the son is working in the salt fields. It is mainly done by the women in the family. Tsering Lhamo is 47 years old. Due to her poor health, her family has stopped letting her go to the salt fields . But today is an exception.

She wants to take the younger members of the family to work in the salt fields. Today they have to use the most primitive method. The location for carrying water is this tower-shaped salt water well. I used to carry water here seventy or eighty times in the morning. After eating at noon,

I still carried water like this in the afternoon . There are many salt water springs rich in salt on both sides of the Lancang River. Salt water springs continuously emit high-concentration salt water. Salt farmers surrounded the springs into salt water wells. The salt water in the

Salt water wells cannot be used directly to dry salt . There are many large and small reservoirs next to the salt fields. The salt farmers must first Transport salt water to your own reservoir. The salt water needs to evaporate and precipitate in the reservoir for a period of time

Before being transported to the salt field to dry the salt. The purpose of this is to increase the concentration of salt water and increase the production of salt. Now this step is used Water pumps are used. But before water pumps became popular, people used human power to carry water. In the past,

This was the most laborious step in the entire salt production process. Before there were water pumps, carrying water from the salt fields was very hard. Adults and children had to go to the salt fields to carry water. Thank you to the country for giving us Equipped with a water pump. I’m very grateful.

Mom, are you tired? If you’re not tired , sit down for a while. If you’re not, it’s better to carry less water. Be careful. There’s an unwritten habit in the salt well, that is, men go out to do business and women go to the salt fields to make salt.

Women in the salt well have always been here. The protagonist of the salt field, be careful not to overturn the water, move quickly , be careful not to fall , and lift the bucket. You know, when the bucket is filled with salt water,

It can weigh up to thirty or forty pounds. In the past, women in salt wells had to carry hundreds of water back and forth like this every day. This time it was a labor intensity that even men could hardly bear. It was very tiring and very easy.

Now I just use the water pump to pump it up directly. I turned on the switch myself . Before, I used the bucket to fetch water and carried it on my back . My shoulders hurt so much. She said that. You must not forget the life you live now

. It is a particularly good life for you. You must cherish it. Thirty years ago , Tsering Lhamo married from Chao to Yanjing and became a woman in Yanjing. She has already walked this steep water-carrying road. I don’t know how many times I have walked back and forth. In the past years,

Tsering Lhamo supported the whole family by making salt and raised a pair of children. Now the children are married and he has a fat grandson. Now that the conditions are getting better and better, there is no need anymore. It is as hard as it was in the past, but Tsering Lhamo believes that

Only by letting children experience the hardships of the past can they better cherish their current life. Why are there salt water wells in this Lancang River gorge ? Tens of millions of years ago, the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau was an ocean . Earth’s crust moves, oceans rise and become mountains. Along with the crust’s uplift,

Salt-rich seawater seeps into the ground to form salt layers. These salt water wells are formed when underground spring water dissolves salt layers and then gushes out to the surface along fault zones. But for local salt farmers, about It is said that a long time ago, the climate on both sides of the Lancang

River was dry and natural disasters occurred frequently. People’s lives were very sad. One day, Damei, the daughter of Meili Snow Mountain, came here and saw the situation of human beings. She was heartbroken. Mercy then transformed into a golden rooster and a silver rooster and flew to the foothills of the Lancang River

And transformed into salt water wells. The golden rooster on the west bank of the Lancang River became a village of Jiada

, which is rich in red salt. The silver rooster on the east bank of the Lancang River became a village rich in white salt. Yanjing Village of Salt Today the local people call the salt well “Chakaluo”. It is said that it is because of the unique cries of

The golden rooster and the silver rooster. The myths and legends are naturally unbelievable , but they reflect people’s awe and gratitude to the nature of heaven and earth. The legendary silver rooster becomes Yanjing Village can be divided into Upper Yanjing Village and Lower Yanjing Village. Lower Yanjing Village is also called Naxi Village,

Which is a Naxi village. It is different from Jiada Village. The salt fields in Naxi Village are built on the steep mountains. Although it looks more spectacular , it also increases Due to the steep terrain, it is difficult for salt farmers to carry water with poles. In the past, women in Naxi Village

Used a wooden bucket with a diameter of about 30 cm and a height of about 60 cm to carry water. The bucket itself weighed nearly ten kilograms. Heavy: The weight can reach more than fifty kilograms when filled with water. Naxi women have carried this kind of wooden bucket for thousands of years.

It was not until water pumps became popular more than ten years ago that this kind of wooden bucket became history. Very early on , even children had to pick up salt water and dry it in the sun before the caravan arrived. Going far away to exchange for food. In the past, I

Went to work in the salt fields very early in the morning and came back very late at night. Sometimes I used a flashlight to carry water at night. Now, with the care of the party, productivity has also been liberated. Compared with the past, this has indeed happened. Big changes.

I started working in the salt fields when I was 12 years old. Now I am 45 years old. Tsering Wangmo is a villager in Naxi Village. She has fifteen salt fields on this steep hillside. Her task today is mainly to collect salt. When collecting salt, there are usually three layers.

The first layer is snow-white, which is the best quality salt and the most expensive. Local people like to use this salt to make butter tea. It is said that the butter tea made with it has a strong flavor and good color, and is deeply loved by people

. The second salt is mixed with a small amount of soil. Now it is generally used to feed the special mouth. It is said that if the wind is eaten by the sex, the wind will disappear. The third salt contains a large amount of soil and cannot be sold.

It will be poured back into your own water storage. To increase the salt content of the pool, the first layer of salt can collect about fifteen kilograms. The middle layer of salt can collect about ten kilograms. The bottom layer of salt has about three kilograms.

These three kilograms will be poured into the reservoir and will be needed after collecting the salt. Use this wooden tool to beat the salt field to make the surface of the salt field as hard as possible , and then pour the brine from the storage tank into the salt

Field. Salt wells can produce salt all year round , but the highest production occurs in spring and summer , especially in April and May when the peach blossoms are in full bloom. The speed of salt drying is also the fastest when the wind is strong and the sun is strong.

Sometimes you can even harvest salt once a day. The quality of the salt produced at this time is also best known as “peach blossom salt. The output of salt is at least once a month in the rainy season of July and August.”

People say that salt is the work of the sun and wind , but it is not the crystallization of the sweat of the women in the salt well. The dried salt needs to be transported home regularly. The salt field is far away from home . To transport the salt, it needs help.

The phone number is due to the steep mountains and complex terrain. Between Naxi Village and the salt field It was impossible to build a formal road during this time . This narrow path became the only way from the salt pans to the village.

The bushes on both sides of the path leaked from the raw stream and still maintained the original wind. The scenery was beautiful , but transporting salt on this road was not easy. From time to time, some incidents would occur because the salt bag was too heavy

And the rope used to tie it could not support the salt bag. The salt bag fell off the back of Zizi. The crew members rushed over to help Lijia. With everyone’s help, the salt bag was quickly tied up again. Fortunately, the salt fell off the liar’s back three times

And I went back and forth for more than half an hour. When I got home, it was already dark. My parents-in-law had already prepared a meal . After a tiring day, Tsering Wangmo finally got to rest. Tsering Wangmo was born and raised in the country. The Naxi villagers

Started working in the salt fields at the age of 12. At the age of 22, they married a young man from the same village. Tsering Wangmo is now 44 years old. Now he has fifteen salt fields and can earn an income of more than 10,000 yuan a year. He

Has three children at home. There are two elderly people who need to be donated to school . Although the income from the salt field is not huge , it is indispensable to this ordinary family. Women are the protagonists in the salt field. What do the men do? Their jobs are not easy either.

They have to go out. Working to earn money, in the past, men had a more difficult job. The women were responsible for making salt in the horse racing gang, and the men were responsible for selling the salt to other places. This is a long-lasting tradition in the salt well

. Today is the day for the members of the caravan to go to the countryside to sell salt. Now there is no longer a need for caravans, but selling salt is still a man’s job. Before setting off, he has to perform a special ceremony. The location of the ceremony is on the

Mountain behind the village . Mazhadui is 46 years old this year. He has been selling salt with his father in the horse caravan since he was 15 years old. Every time before the caravan sets off, he would climb up to the mountain to pray like this. With the improvement of traffic conditions

And the popularization of modern transportation, caravans have become history , but it was a habit back then. In the past, caravans had to travel long distances over snowy mountains and canyons to sell salt. The journey back and forth was difficult and dangerous and took more than half a month.

Due to the limited amount of transportation at one time, men needed to travel many times a year to sell more salt. Compared with the women who work all day long in the salt fields, the work of men is definitely not easy. It often rains

In the mountains in June and July , and the salt is often eaten by wolves. It is very hard for people to carry the salt on their own . The road will be cut off by water, so you have to wait on the mountain to see if the road is connected.

Sometimes the food will be gone. Nima gather together. I want to sell six bags of salt today. Now I have 20 pieces of salt fields at home. Six bags of salt is equivalent to 20 pieces of salt fields twice.

The place where salt is harvested and sold is in Yanjing Township, only two kilometers away from the village . With the improvement of logistics level, there is no need to go to other places to sell salt. Yanjing Naxi Nationality Township is the first stop for Yunnan to enter Tibet.

It has been Yunnan and Tibetan tea since ancient times. The important town of Magu Road is still an important economic and cultural center in eastern Tibet. Each kilogram of salt is 8.5 cents, which is a good price. Nima gathered together and are very satisfied with the increase in salt prices in recent years.

The income of salt farmers has also increased a lot. In the past, caravans sold salt. The main method of trading is bartering. Salt is exchanged for local grain. Ten buckets of salt can be exchanged for ten to fifteen buckets of highland barley. The current trading method has undergone tremendous changes.

Six bags of salt were exchanged for an income of 582 yuan. They got together and decided to use the money to buy some corn and go back. A new day began in the salt fields. The society is changing in the development era. People’s lifestyles are also constantly changing.

The only thing that remains unchanged is the hardworking and simple character of the Yanjing people . Salt wells are born from salt. Prosperous because of salt, well-known because of salt. Today, in addition to the salt production industry, salt wells are also booming in tourism, greenhouse planting, grape planting

, wine making and other industries . This magical thousand-year-old salt field is ushering in a new era under the influence of modern civilization. spring
