In this camp, which doesn't even have an official name, Daimaru is actually busier than in the Sand Hidden Village.

It is actually clear which of the ministers in charge and the "temperance envoys" who are in charge of military and political affairs are under the most pressure.

What's more, it's still a new settlement that is in ruins, and as long as the subordinates can't make up their minds, they need to be dealt with by Daimaru.

In the village, these should all be made by the Wind Shadow and the Elder Advisors, and a large number of directly subordinate departments participate in the implementation.

The settlement, with a permanent population of no more than 300 and a peak population of no more than 1,000, is only a small village with a slight popularity.

In fact, without any foundation, relying on Daimaru to lead a group of ninjas to open up the wasteland, the camp supported by pure investment, the daily expenses make Daimaru flesh pain, and only the income generated by the transactions of those irregular caravans is still 108,000 miles away from breaking even.

Of course, the size of the camp has reached such a point that the model of large-scale development can no longer be sustained, and if the power plant and desalination plant that have long maintained this settlement are delayed for too long, all the beautiful scenes envisioned in the plan will become a flash in the pan.

Money and materials can't support it on the one hand, and the water resources that feed so many people can no longer rely on ninjas to use ninjutsu to get water.

There are already few groundwater resources, and because of the proximity to the sea, the salinization is a bit serious, and the quality of most of the natural freshwater resources is extremely poor, and it is only barely enough to drink.

In the final analysis, it was Orochimaru who thought badly and underestimated the difficulty of opening up coastal settlements in this era.

The massive amount of knowledge received by the information explosion in the previous life all shows that the prosperous areas are basically not far from the seaside.

But in ancient times, when the productive forces were underdeveloped, the argument that the closer to the sea was the same as the closer to wealth, is debatable.

To be precise, the closer you are to the mouth of the great river, the closer you are to wealth.

There are rivers that communicate with the inland nearby, bringing inexhaustible fresh water, and only when the time and place are right and the people have the foundation for development.

The mature and developed coastal areas are basically the products of the radiation of the economic belt of "a certain river basin", and simply relying on one or two seaport cities is a dead end.

As a matter of fact, the conditions in most of the coastal areas are not good, the salinized areas are not suitable for the development of agriculture, there are not many natural resources, and the industrial base does not exist.

"Therefore, if we can't have a close connection with the Land of the Wind here, to be precise, with the Sand Hidden Village, it will all be an empty ...... in the end."

At Daimaru's kind invitation, Temari reluctantly agreed to stay a little longer and return after lunch.

It's just that in the messy camp, I really can't find too good cooks, and those shark meats, how to say it, after entering it, it really can't be called delicious.

In addition to refining a lot of oil for other purposes, the purine content is amazingly large internal organs, and the big pill is not to eat, because I am afraid that I will get gout at a young age, and the days when I want to eat it are too difficult.

However, there are still many people who like this thing, after all, it is meat, although it is not delicious, but pickled is also a rare animal protein supplement.

Temari tasted a few sips of the steaming fish soup, frowned and handed the seemingly smooth and fatty fish meat to the black cat at his feet to taste.

"Are you going to admit defeat? Why don't you stop your losses in time......"

The blonde girl didn't look at the talkative Daimaru, and seemed to find it more interesting to pretend to be a well-behaved feral cat begging for food.

"Failure is not enough to ......"

Although the shark broth does not taste good, it tastes much better than most pills such as the Ryo Pills, and as for the trace harmful substances that have not been removed due to substandard cooking techniques, it is not worth mentioning to the ninja's physique.

"The stage of throwing money to buy people's hearts in the early stage has passed, and now we must start to come up with 'dry goods', otherwise we can't see the future just by 'burning money', and it will be bad if the 'partners' lose confidence......"

Capitalists are not philanthropists, and patience is limited.

"What are you going to do?"

"First use the power of the puppeteer to start the seawater desalination plant, so that everyone can see that the dignified 'Red Sand and Dust' uncle is not a mouthful, but there is a way to desalinate seawater! At this time, confidence and expectation are more important than making money with real money......"

No matter how good the truth is, it is not as beautiful as PPT, and after having a model, there are big people who have too much money to spend and rush to send money.

"First, use manpower to start the power plant and desalination plant, and let those puppeteers of the three-legged cat go on top first; Firepower replaces manpower, let's talk about it next, the plan can't catch up with the changes......"

To maintain a settlement of a few hundred people, a group of puppet apprentices is enough to maintain, and in the past half a year, Daimaru's workshop has sold so many basic puppets, which has directly or indirectly promoted the birth of many puppeteers.

Bad planning in advance, spending money to release tasks for these fledgling puppeteers to manipulate large puppets to drive the flash chambers and pressure reducing valves of generator sets and intermodal transport, and produce electricity and fresh water for a start-up settlement.

It's just that it costs a little more, but the meat is stopped in the pot, didn't it make Sand Hidden Village and Sand Ninja make money in the end?

When the settlements begin to operate normally, it is enough to "cut leeks" and earn back with profits, if they collapse now, there will be no future.

Before starting to implement it in a down-to-earth manner, Daimaru really felt that he had thought it through enough, but in fact, many things could not be completed as planned, and the biggest problem was that the coal shipped from the Fire Country could not arrive on time as planned.

It's really not the country of fire and Konoha Village that obstruct it, the industrial level of the ninja world is like this, from mining, mining, transportation to delivery, there are checkpoints everywhere, and it is the biggest mistake that Daimaru made to measure the efficiency of the ninja world with the developed logistics system of the information age.

Daimaru was thinking about whether to issue a mission in Konoha Village, so that Tiantian, who was proficient in time and space ninjutsu, could use her storage scroll to directly load tens of thousands of tons of coal and transport it.

Just think about the expenses, or forget it, such a toss, the money in Daimaru's hand was lost in a few clicks, the shipping is slow, but it is cheap, and it is not too late to squander it when you have money, and you can't waste it casually now.

"It's finally time to start making fresh water, are you ready?"

Temari asked with some concern.

"Don't worry! This time, the parts you brought, assemble them, debug them, and you can start the initial ......"
