No matter how good the days are, there is an end,

Half a month later,

Wang Daoyi finally said goodbye to Xiangling and returned to the Chisha headquarters.

Liyue's Lantern Festival didn't affect things in the desert.

The Chisha headquarters is still running very well,

The soldiers are either training or going on patrol,

The headquarters is full of people, merchants, tourists, and adventurers.

It's not that there's anything special in the headquarters.

Mainly, if an outsider wants to enter the Thousand Gully Sands, or even deeper, to venture or do business, they must come to the headquarters to register.

One is to facilitate Chisha to monitor outsiders, and the other is to facilitate the handling of tax issues.

In order to revitalize the commerce of Chisha, West Germany abolished such a thing as tariffs and retained only the commercial tax.

Grain and other basic necessities are also only taxed at a very low price.

At present, the largest source of tax revenue in Chisha is the trade in luxury goods, alchemical goods and special products.

Luxury goods include sandworm oil, a specialty of the desert (sandworm oil is a substance secreted by sandworms, and the wind-eaten sandworm population cooperates with the red sand, so there is no need to kill sandworms to obtain it). ), Desert Gem (a gem from the depths of the desert, a by-product of mining in an underground base.) ), sand lipid pupae (protects the shell of the larvae of quicksand eel, which can be used to make certain advanced skin care products.) etc...

Alchemy goods are naturally produced by Nicholred's alchemy workshop, and there are many categories, which are generally directly customized by merchants who place orders.

As for specialty products, that's more,

Sand coconut fruit, mourning flower, Wanxiang stone, red thought fruit, and even the holy gold worm,

These are products unique to desert areas and relatively precious in the outside world.

In addition to these three major sources of tax revenue, some Chisha warriors returned to their former lives and began to re-establish mercenary groups.

In the past, mercenary groups were formed to earn resources for the tribe to survive.

Now the mercenary group is established because the life of the Chisha headquarters is too comfortable.

The pioneers in the depths of the desert no longer continue to recruit men.

And to the expeditionary camp on the edge of the world, these warriors are not qualified,

In the end, the mercenary group could only be re-established and began to take on the life of receiving tasks.

It is said that their range of activities has gradually expanded to Fontaine's side with the contact between Fontaine and Sumeru.

There are also some people who directly crossed a long distance and went to Nata to find work, and it is said that these people have the support of a certain Chisha high-level behind them.

Sitting on the throne of the gods, Wang Daoyi checked the information records updated in the void while listening to the report of West Germany below,

After playing for so long, it's time to start working, and work starts with knowing the information.

Under the throne of God, West Germany held a thick amount of information, and all kinds of information were gathered in his hands, and they were reported to Wang Daoyi one by one.

"In the past year, the tax funds have increased by more than 100 times, and the activity funds available to the headquarters are currently stable at about one billion Mora on a daily basis, and we no longer need to continue to develop the ruins of the Red King to obtain funds."

Wang Dao nodded: "Well, you have done a good job in terms of taxation, and the next step is to carry out in-depth development of resources, not just simple resource sales." ”

Sid slid the tip of his pen and recorded Wang Daoyi's words under this report.

"The tribal population has also reached a new high, with nearly 100,000 newborns born in the last year alone, and the tribe has set up a dedicated nursery to ensure that these children grow up healthy."

Wang Daoyi showed a smile on his face, the population of Chisha is currently less than one million, and in just one year, 100,000 newborns can be forced, and the difficulty can be imagined.

Of course, this also has something to do with how young and strong Chisha is, and there are not many elderly people.

Now that there is a alliance of Chisha tribes to ensure their survival, it is natural that they will begin to reproduce in large numbers.

It is human nature to have food and clothing and lust.

"Our cooperation with the Akademiya has also become more and more successful, with a large number of biothealists willing to go into the desert to study desert species, and it is expected that within three years we will develop plants that can be initially adapted to the environment of the Great Red Sand Sea," Sid continued. ”

Wang Daoyi continued to nod: "The Great Red Sand Sea, as well as the Thousand Gully Sandy Land, all have the influence of high-level forces, so there is no need to rush the research and development of desert species, just take your time." ”

Sid hurriedly jotted it down, the tip of the pen making a shuttle on the paper.

"The Wind Erosion Sandworm clan is also willing to accept our employment to develop a desert boat project, which is expected to be completed in half a year, and it will be more convenient to transport materials or people in the desert at that time."

As the heirs and dependents of Apep, the wind erosion sandworm was given a piece of land by Wang Daoyi to recuperate.

Later, caravans often passed through the territory of the wind-eroded sandworms, and these clever dragons learned to collect tolls.

However, as more and more merchants came to the desert, the toll could not be collected forever.

So, the Chisha headquarters sent people to negotiate with the wind erosion sandworms, or you can come and work for the tribe.

The wind-eroded sandworms that had been poor for a long time were naturally successfully subdued.

Red sand provides safe land and food to ensure the reproduction and survival of wind-eroded sandworms.

The Wind Erosion Sandworm will transform into a sand sea boat, serving as a desert vehicle for Red Sand.

"That's good, but we have to continue to develop mechanical vehicles, and we can't stop." Wang Daoyi said softly.

With the purification and crystallization of Chisha energy and the solution of the energy problem, the vehicle is a machine that has officially entered the demand list of Chisha.

Sid nodded: "This has been taken into account, the wind erosion sandworm will only operate in some quicksand and storm danger areas, and we still use mechanical power on normal trade routes." ”

"Alright, go ahead." The king bowed his head.

Sid then reported: "The Flower Spirit Clan thank you for preserving their place of existence, and are willing to open up some of the purchase rights of the Spiritual Nectar to Chisha. ”

Spiritual nectar is a liquid material that can only be condensed by the spirit of the crown flower, and has some of the characteristics of the two energies of spiritual light and nectar, and has great utility in alchemy, blacksmithing, and pharmacy.

After it came into contact with Chisha, it was listed as a controlled substance.

"Well, over there, Hua Ling, try not to bother, just leave a few diplomats to pay attention." Wang Daoyi didn't want to break the peaceful days of the flower spirit.

"Okay, my god, in addition, the Naga Juna group has completed the inspection, except for the head of the school, Na Xian Juna, no one else is involved in the matter of the abyss cooperation, the Akademiya sent a communication, willing to re-admit the order, but the Naga Juna group rejected this proposal, they are willing to continue to stay in the desert to conduct research, and share the results of research with Chisha."

Nagajuna's group leader Naxian Juna cooperated with the abyss in an attempt to take away the power of the aura, and was finally defeated by Ying,

Naxian Zhu Na is naturally a dead end, but Naga Zhu Na is indeed innocent, and many of them still adhere to the ancient covenant and are not bewitched by the abyss.

"Nagajuna... Whatever they want, just trade in materials normally, and if they want to go back to the Akademya, they don't have to stop them. ”

Wang Daoyi knew that Nahida wanted these scholars to return to the Akademiya, but unfortunately, due to long-term unfair treatment and even discrimination, these desert scholars were not willing to go back.

In this case, let them continue to stay in the desert, and when they want to go back, Wang Daoyi will not stop them.

The tip of the West German pen slid and it was recorded: "The Giant Machinery Engineering Project is progressing well, and we have developed a variety of large machines including Giant Mining Machinery, Giant Shield Machinery, Giant Lifting Machinery, Giant Excavation Machinery, etc. ”

"Well, in addition to the giant machinery project, small construction machinery also needs to be developed, and a large number of small machinery is needed to help the underground base." Wang Dao nodded a little, this is something he is more concerned about, after all, manpower is limited, and machinery is the best tool.

"Okay, I'll inform the construction machinery researchers." West Germany recorded again.

"In partnership with the Liyue Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, we have embarked on a large-scale desert town project, which is expected to be completed within five years, at which point the desert people will be separated from tent-like dwellings."

"Feiyun Chamber of Commerce...... Well? The business of the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce has been done here? How is it still a construction business? ”

The business of the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce is very large, and this royal road does not deny it, but how to do it in the desert, it is still a construction business.

Wang Dao's eyes fell, with a hint of puzzlement.

In the face of the gods' doubts, Sid did not panic, and explained: "The cooperation with the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce is mainly because they have bought out the working time of Kaveh scholars in the near future, and among the scholars who are good at planning large-scale buildings, Kaveh scholars are the professionals that Chisha needs and is most familiar with. ”

Bought out Carvey's working hours?

Wang Daoyi quickly had a memory in his mind,

Yes, at the time of the Akademiya's celebration, Xingqiu recruited Kaveh, which seems to be preparing for the construction industry,

Tut-tut, worthy of being the second young master of the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, actually let him be pressed.

Chisha wants to build a large number of desert towns, and the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce has mastered the best architects,

In this wave, even if only one-tenth of the order is eaten, the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce will make a lot of money.

"Hmm, I see, let's go ahead."

"Okay, my god, the desert canal system is working well, although there have been several siltation events, but with the help of His Excellency Feligis, they have all been solved in time, and with the irrigation of the canal, it is expected that after the harvest of crops this year, we can achieve a complete elimination of the need for food from the outside world for the first time."

Food, this is an inescapable topic in the desert, and it is also one of the biggest difficulties in Chisha,

Don't look at the fact that after Wang Dao came, Chisha didn't seem to be short of food, but in fact, it was all exchanged for the treasures in the ruins of the Red King.

Essentially, it is still doing a kind of non-renewable resource trading.

Later, Chisha developed and developed many small oases, which only relieved some of the food pressure.

It was not until the development of the desert canal and the establishment of large-scale plantation oases that the real self-satisfaction of food was completed.

"Well, the Oasis matter is very important, and it must be protected, this is our lifeblood." Wang Daoyi focused on the road.

West Germany also replied solemnly: "Please rest assured, there are dozens of patrols on the canal, each team is a battle-hardened warrior, and under the canal, there are a large number of dragon lizards cruising to ensure that there will be no problems, but when it comes to dragon lizards, ......"

"The reproduction speed of xenomorph dragon lizards is too fast, resulting in the loss of control of the species balance in some reservoirs, and after discussion, we extradited some xenomorph dragon lizards to the Juxiang Coast, relying on the sea, temporarily solving the problem of dragon lizards reproducing too fast."

There was a hint of helplessness on Sid's face.

The dragon lizard is a creature that has been encircled and suppressed in most countries.

Here in Chisha, it is protected, not only is there no danger, but it can also be fed by humans.

Comfortable environment, plenty of food, wide range of activities.

This led to the dragon lizard beginning to multiply in large numbers.

At first, it was only fine in the Baji Reservoir, but later Wang Daoyi sent them to reservoirs and canals all over the desert.

This rate of reproduction is even more explosive.

So much so that the random hunting activities of dragon lizards have affected the ecological environment within the waters.

"Hmm...... Xenosaurus ...... Juxiang Coast, do a good job, and then I will give them an order to reproduce to a certain number, and let them divide on their own. ”

Let the dragon lizard divide itself into groups and expand outward, and when it encounters other extraordinary species, it will naturally stop reproducing and developing.

Sid continued: "A communication has been sent from the expeditionary camp, the Fatui have begun to withdraw their troops in small quantities, and part of the defensive line has been released, and there are suspected ancient ruins remaining in the area of the defensive line. ”

The expedition camp on the edge of the world has been bringing benefits to Chisha in a steady stream.

The technology developed by those Akademiya scholars from ancient ruins made a share of Chisha's share.

The expeditionary force, having tasted the sweetness, naturally wanted to increase its efforts.

Wang Daoyi shook his head slightly, if it was normal, he would also increase the investment in manpower, but the construction of the underground base is more important at the moment: "Tell them that the headquarters will not be able to provide support for the time being, and if necessary, they can cooperate with the Mondstadt Expeditionary Force." ”

Sid wrote down and continued: "The alchemy workshop has repeatedly asked for more capital investment, and in the past month, it has consumed nearly 100 million Mora of resources, and it is still asking for more capital investment. ”

The investment of nearly 100 million Mora is already a rare big project in Chisha.

But Nikored did not tell what the West German project was.

This raised questions in West Germany.

"The project of the alchemy workshop is very important, and it is necessary to increase capital investment, and there is no need to worry about it."

The Alchemy Workshop has several projects.

But a project that can swallow up such a huge amount of money and that even West Germany cannot know.

There is only one one - the casting of the [Deception] ballast.

Although there are the remains of the cocktail as materials, it still requires a lot of cherished accessories to cooperate.

The nearly 100 million Mora funds were used for the consumption of these precious materials.

"Yes, my God." Sid lowered his head, since the lord of the red sand said that he didn't need to care, as long as he gave money, then Sid didn't care.

"Finally, the underground base project, currently mobilized 5,000 people, is located on the side of the Thousand Gully Sandy Dama Mountain, due to the concealment of the project, so the base construction speed is not fast, and it is expected that it will take at least half a year to put into use."

After speaking, Sid finally closed the thick notebook in his hand,

Obviously every message is short enough,

But West Germany still reported for more than an hour, and he barely finished speaking.

On the throne, Wang Daoyi nodded slightly, and then praised: "Good job, hard work." ”

Sid bowed his head: "This is what I should do, my god." ”

"Haha, don't be modest, Sid, do you know? Fate is so magical, I met you and formed a fate before I ascended to God.

From the elders of a small tribe in the desert,

To this day, the real ruler of Chisha,

Sid, you have proven yourself, you are a talented person and a person who deserves my reassurance.

You attended my wedding as a member of your family,

I won't treat you as an outsider anymore, so in the future, you can relax in front of me and not have to be so honestly afraid. ”

In the center of the temple, Sid's body trembled, not afraid, but grateful.

"I will follow you to the last day of my life."

Wang Dao laughed: "Hahahaha, that is really an incomparably distant day." ”

Sid was his patron, and Wang Daoyi used his authority to give him the power to wind and sand.

As Zhongli had said, once he let go of the ban, the whole of Liyue would be infected with his breath.

Sid has been by Wang Daoyi's side for a long time, and his soul has long been in the shape of Wang Daoyi.

Although West Germany is not yet an immortal species, it can still live for more than a hundred years.

Without waiting for Sid to continue speaking, Wang Daoyi got up from the divine seat: "Let's go, go and see the underground base, this is also the project you have to pay attention to this year." ”

As he spoke, with a slight wave of his hand, the dark blue leyline passage engulfed West Germany.

And Wang Daoyi also disappeared into the temple.

Thousands of sandy lands, Dama Mountains, underground space.

As the location of the eternal oasis, the place where the heavenly nail falls, the leylines here are unusually stable,

However, this is nothing to Wang Daoyi.

The powerful divine power tore through the leylines and led Sid out of the leyline passage.

The otherwise silent underground space is extremely noisy.

Wang Dao glanced at the location, fortunately, although it is also the Dama Mountain area, it is still a little far from the Eternal Oasis.

Come to think of it, this is the location that Feligis helped choose, and such a noisy thing can't be close to the Eternal Oasis.

After all, Feligis is to protect the peace of the Eternal Oasis.

The arrival of Wang Daoyi and Sid soon attracted the people who stayed here.

A holy relict warrior whispered to the warrior next to him, and then walked over: "My god, Elder Sid, Your Excellency the Chief Alchemist is in the depths of the base, and I have already notified someone to look for him." ”

Wang Dao nodded: "Don't worry, you take me to shop first, how is the construction of the base now?" What is the general plan? ”

The holy relics warriors are all Wang Daoyi's guards, so naturally they will not resist Wang Daoyi's orders,

He walked up to Wang Daoyi and led the way for the gods: "Your Excellency the Chief Alchemist has planned four main areas, the living area, the industrial area, the research area, and the logistics material area, and the current base is under construction in the living area and the logistics material area. ”

The living area ensures the basic activities and residence of the personnel in the base.

The industrial park is responsible for the subsequent industrial construction and production.

The research area is responsible for the development and testing of new projects.

The logistics area is responsible for the storage and supply of materials at the base.

He pointed to the construction site not far away: "There is the living area, according to the current plan, after the construction of the living area, it covers an area of more than 100 acres, in addition to the normal accommodation building, including restaurants, bathing centers, training camps and other facilities..."

Wang Daoyi looked at his point,

On the construction site in the distance, a large number of red sand workers are working, mainly to widen the space and strengthen the rock wall.

It's really still a process of doing the groundwork.
