Chapter 257: Life in the Desert (11)
"You have rich conditions? Hehe, you prodigal son who has nothing, and you dare to negotiate terms with us!"
The queen seemed to have heard some great joke, and she walked back to her chair, sat down, and played with her nails. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Are young people nowadays so ignorant of the sky?"
"Don't you know if the sky is high and the earth is thick, and you are qualified to negotiate terms with the king and queen, won't you know when I say it?"
"Huh...... Then just say it, don't say that we didn't give you a chance when the time comes. ”
In their opinion, what conditions could Fuyu have, as she said, she was just a wandering and helpless prodigal son.
And they are the most noble people in the entire quicksand country, they want money and money, rights and rights, what other conditions can make them excited?
"Water, my condition is water. Fuyu said unhurriedly.
The queen was about to make another sarcastic remark, but the king, who had not spoken, spoke.
He sat up straight, his eyes like a torch.
"What do you mean?"
Sure enough, the thing that can make the king of the quicksand country fall in love is the water source!
"King, listen to his nonsense, he is just a mortal, can he still be the rain god who descends to earth and conjure up rain for us?"
The queen thought she had heard the funniest joke of the day, that someone should dare to propose a solution to the water problem in the desert.
If the water problem can be solved, won't they solve it themselves, and they still need to wait for others!
"Listen to him!"
The king looked at her, and with that glance, the queen stopped talking.
"I was able to alleviate the problem of water scarcity in the desert, I was able to improve the desert environment, and of course, to tell the truth, it was not a short-term project, it took several years to accumulate. ”
"How many years? How do I know you're not lying? How do you prove that you really have a way?"
"I have stayed here to manage the desert for the past few years, and the king only needs to send some soldiers to monitor me, and I believe that under the surveillance of your manpower, I will not be able to escape. ”
"But what if you don't see results? You only said that it was a few years, so if you are a few years, thirty or fifty years, wouldn't you be deliberately delaying time!"
"Ten years, I only need ten years, within ten years, the desert environment is alleviated, that is, I have done it, if there is no relief, then you and I will settle today's account. ”
With that, the king fell into deep thought.
According to the annals of the palace, tens of thousands of years ago, the land here was also red and willow green, grass grew and warblers flew, and there was abundant rain and suitable temperature, but then for unknown reasons, it became such a barren desert, no matter how they thought of it, they could never go back.
If he can really solve this problem and return the country of quicksand to a country with distinct seasons, then he will become the most accomplished generation of kings in the history of the country of quicksand, and he will be famous for centuries.
It's better to believe him, and he can't make any mistakes left and right.
"Okay, then I'll believe you once, make you the first executive envoy of the Quicksand Country, and give you ten years to deal with it with full authority. ”
Fuyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and finally passed this level.
"You live in the General's Mansion, and if you want manpower, ask him for it, and ask him for anything you want. ”
Fuyu knew that the reason why the king found the general to be her companion was because there were countless capable people in the general's mansion, and with them watching by her side, she couldn't escape.
"King Xie is sympathetic. ”
"Then I'm going too, father, and daughter want to go too, don't you agree? ”
"Nonsense, one of your daughters' family has never been out of the palace since she was a child, how can she stand it outside?" the king stopped her.
"I don't care, I'm going to go, anyway, I'm already in time, I'm not a child. ”
The king is very indulgent to this daughter, as long as she is petty and coquettish, he can't do anything about her.
"Okay, okay, you go, but bring a few more people with you, don't be bitter about yourself. ”
In the end, Fuyu and the princess, the two left the palace together and lived in the general's mansion.
Although the general did not believe much in his claim of ruling the desert, he still obeyed the king's orders.
Early the next morning, Fuyu set out with a group of people, and the place they were going to was a place where the sand around the royal city was still relatively wet.
There are many people living in the royal city, and it is not easy to transform it now, so she can only start from the surrounding areas of the royal city first.
"Young Master Mo, why did you let us bring so many saplings?"
Accompanying him is the deputy general of the great general, and he is also the second master of the quicksand country, according to Fuyu's vision, he is the confidant of the great general, and his learning is exquisite, and his martial arts should be above her.
"Vice General Zhao, we brought saplings, so naturally we want to plant them. ”
"Why do you want to plant trees?"
"Because the green plants under the sky have the effect of locking water and fixing sand, as long as we plant it alive this year, it will not take two years, and the surrounding environment will have obvious changes. ”
"Then why don't you plant flowers and plants, which have a short lifespan, won't they work faster?" asked the princess curiously
"Because the root system of flowers and plants is too short, it won't take long, as long as they can't absorb water, they will still die, and when they die, the surface is exposed again, then the previous efforts are all in vain, and they have no long-term sand fixation effect. ”
Fuyu paused and continued, "Trees are different, they can condense moisture in the air, although we can't see the presence of water, but there is always something in the air, and what is left after they absorb it, and what is not used up, will flow into the ground, and once there is moisture in the ground, it can grow dwarf flowers and shrubs on its own, in the long run, this is the most suitable way." ”
The people of the Quicksand Country don't understand this statement, they just think that what Fuyu said is divine.
Vice General Zhao rubbed the tiny sapling in his hand and asked uncertainly, "Is it really useful?"
"As we know, if there is nothing on the surface, then as soon as it is exposed to sunlight, it will immediately heat up, and when the temperature of the ground rises, the water in the ground will evaporate at an accelerated rate, and in the end, all the water will evaporate, and the area of desertification will continue to expand. So, if we plant plants on the surface, we will prevent the groundwater from evaporating, thus protecting the ground, and it won't be long before an oasis is formed. ”
What Fuyu said was colorful, but Vice General Zhao and the princess looked embarrassed.
"We don't know. ”
Belch....
Well, Fuyu thinks too much, this is not the 21st century with advanced technology, if they understood the law of ecological balance, they would have governed it themselves a long time ago.
