The construction of the Danube branch began in the late 1920s. The turbulent, full-flowing river Chertanka in those years, with its dense forest, vast fields with fat chernozems and a rich plant world attracted Zheltynsky kulaks , they seized the best lands, built two manors and began to grow bread, graze large herds of cattle, camels and flocks of sheep. For the winter, fists left for the village of Zheltoye. Laborers lived in dugouts dug in the ground.

Incredibly hard work leads the peasants to strikes. They walked away from the kulaks, creating communities. In 1929, a continuous collectivization took place in the province; it also encompassed local peasants. They took the land and estates from the kulaks, united in TOZs . The first three adobe houses appeared. At the end of the year from the village of Verkhneozernoye to Yellow was transferred to the central estate of the farm named after Blucher. The TOZ is being converted into a state farm farm under the name of "Leading", and the village is named Danube.

The construction of houses imported from other villages has begun. A warehouse, mill, bakery, creamery, school, tractor repair shops and several livestock buildings were built.

This farm was the basis of the state farm; only the office, the stable, the warehouse and the apartments were in Zhelty.

The Great Patriotic War interrupted peaceful work. These were the years of devastation of the entire economy.

After the war, all forces were sent to restore peaceful life in the village. The first individual houses appeared, a school for two classes. With the transfer of the central estate from Yellow, construction on the farm accelerated. Five two-story houses, a power station, a boiler room, mechanized currents, feed workshops, and a major bridge over the river were built. The farm has become a branch. In it, the power supply ratio has sharply increased, the cultivated areas and livestock have increased, the field productivity and animal productivity have increased. It has repeatedly held primacy in socialist competitions, twice participated in VDNH. In 1969, she was awarded a diploma of the Ministry of State Farms of the RSFSR.

In the late 1980s, the construction of a new village began. In three years, 20 comfortable semi-detached houses with all amenities were built. In the early 1990s, all the apartments in the village were gasified.
