Chapter 1274 Trend

In early spring this year, there was a rare heavy snowstorm in the central part of the Kingdom of Wind, which caught the residents of the Kingdom of Wind by surprise, having almost never experienced such weather.

Daimaru originally believed that the general direction was the mountains running from northwest to southeast, which could block the cold air from the north and south and prevent it from intersecting with the warm and moist air on the back to form heavy snow.

As a result, Uncle "Red Sand Dust" still overestimated his knowledge of geography and astronomy. Sometimes, weather abnormalities were simply not predictable.

There are very few examples of blizzard disasters in the ninja world. Even in the Land of Earth and the Land of Thunder in the north, such severe weather rarely occurs. The exception is the Snow Country, a small country that is mostly in the polar circle. That kind of ghost place , there are icebergs and snow all year round, but in the Iron Kingdom further south, unusual weather occasionally occurs.

Fortunately, the newly rebuilt Sand Hidden Village had very high standards and the quality of the building materials was quite good. Except for a few unfinished buildings that were crushed by heavy snow, no serious casualties occurred.

"Recently, there have been a lot of thunderstorms, so we need to take precautions against floods!"

He did not rush through the sky, but stepped on the muddy sand with his feet firmly on the ground, one foot deeper and one shallower. Daimaru carefully felt the hardship of hiking.

"The battle between manpower and God's will is so troublesome. A slight disturbance will cause an unpredictable and huge storm..."

Because of the existence of the snowy peaks on the plateau, there is a very large-scale low-pressure area in the entire central part of the Kingdom of Wind. It should have been the rainfall center of the Kingdom of Rain, but a small part was divided by the Kingdom of Grass, the Kingdom of Taki, and the southeastern part of the Kingdom of Earth. Most of them go south and live in the north-central part of the Kingdom of Wind.

It is indeed difficult to climb the several nearly 10,000-meter snow peaks that serve as ice-making towers. However, the central water storage area with an altitude of over 2,000 meters can intercept small flows of passing cold and warm air, but cannot separate the large north-south airflow. Instead, it forms here An extremely exaggerated rainfall point.

If North Glass is a well-deserved prairie with little rain and only irrigated by snowmelt water, the southern slope is the "rainiest pole" in the entire Ninja world.

If we just talk about the rainfall per unit area, it is still far behind the previous Rain Country, but the area of ​​the Wind Country is completely different from that of the Rain Country.

If nothing goes wrong, what was once the driest place in the Kingdom of Wind will become the most flooded area.

Of course, these are all hindsight, developments that were completely unforeseen earlier.

If we had to find a similar analogy, it would be similar to Assam, Punjab and other areas south of the snowy plateau in India in the previous life.

This kind of ghost place, if developed well, is a super granary. If the water conservancy and other infrastructure cannot keep up, it will become a disease-ridden swamp.

The geographical conditions of the Kingdom of Wind are not good to begin with, and it has suffered from floods and droughts for many years. In the previous life, it would not have been able to survive without any industrial foundation.

Fortunately, it was Sunagakure Village that was in charge of the development. Ninjas cannot be measured by common sense.

Once a major disaster occurs, the sand ninjas will mobilize collectively to perform joint ninjutsu.

As far as Daimaru knows, there were more than 200 floodwater reservoirs that were opened urgently a month ago. If not for the strength of Sunagakure Village being much stronger than before, the rise of the puppet industry has allowed many apprentice-level children to also contribute a lot. , it is really difficult to resist the invasion of the rainy season.

Like Daimaru, Chien was wearing a raincoat and rubber shoes, stepping on the mud and sand, and said with a little worry:

"Others are fine. The technical ninjas of the air combat unit who monitor the climate were injured several times by tornadoes and high-altitude mines. One of them was so serious that he almost didn't survive."

"There has to be a process of adaptation, and naturally there will be some trial and error costs..."

Daimaru responded calmly,

"The well-being of tens or even hundreds of millions of people in the future requires everyone to work together. To be honest, I even want the ninjas in the village to do less idle work and increase their commissions in addition to charity tasks. We ninjas work with money. Our profession is not that of a bad person who contributes silently without expecting anything in return. We can help with things like building homes, but we must also let the common people have a sense of participation, otherwise, things that are too easy to obtain will not be cherished..."

Qian smiled reservedly:

"It is impossible for the Godaime to agree. Now that he has this ability, he will definitely not advance these things at the cost of hard-earned property or even his life..."

"I know!"

In the final analysis, Daimaru and Gaara are currently in different positions, and their ways of looking at problems tend to be consistent in most cases. Occasionally, they may have differences.

"He is now not only the Fifth Kazekage, but also the 'Grand Imperial Palace' in charge of the affairs of the Kingdom of Wind. Not only Suna Ninja, but everyone in the Kingdom of Wind is his subject! At least in name only..."

The palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh. When the Suna Ninja has some spare strength, it is understandable that Gaara pushes a little to benefit the general public.

Daimaru didn't refute, and thought that no matter what, it was fine. It was important to establish rules, but the long-term vision of releasing water and raising fish was also indispensable.

There will be a period of peace for at least ten years, and infrastructure construction will be accelerated to pave the way for future development.

As the saying goes, "accumulate gradually but gain little", Sunagakure Village is still in the period of accumulating strength, and efficiency is the priority in everything.

The two of them were walking when suddenly they felt their feet slip, and the sand layer with a lot of water seeped into it was like a soft cushion floating on the water.

"This is a large quicksand pit. Because it has been soaked in water, it has begun to develop into a swamp."

Following Daimaru's narration, Qian hurriedly marked it on the map. When he returned, he would immediately arrange for people to deal with it. Either build it into a reservoir, or protect it to maintain ecological diversity and see what it would become.

"I finally understand that some things really do not develop as I imagined. The Kingdom of Wind will indeed become a livable land of plenty in the future, but there are also problems. For example, precipitation is seriously uneven, and some places have annual The rainfall exceeds 20,000 millimeters, and some areas are still in the dead zone of the trade winds, with no rain all year round! In addition, seasonal floods are rampant in the rainy season, and thirst is unbearable in the dry season.”

The overall climate is somewhat similar to that of northern India, but because of its vast area, it is a bit like the area south of the Sahara Desert, with conditions dominated by tropical rainforests and seasonal savannas.

This is not based on Daimaru's personal will. Although there are some problems, there are generally solutions.

It is naturally a bit exaggerated to say that man can conquer nature, but it is still possible to improve conditions through artificial facilities.

If artificial lakes and canals are properly developed, this would be a natural choice.

Leaving the quicksand swamp area, in front of us is a large sandy melon farm.

This kind of melon is very similar to the watermelon in the previous life. It should be a variant of the same kind. In a place with strong sunshine like the Kingdom of Wind, it is really suitable for growing. As long as there is sufficient water for irrigation, the yield and sugar content of this kind of melon can be greatly improved. , far beyond the variety found elsewhere in the shinobi world.

"This place was actually contracted by Yemu, I, and some familiar colleagues. It used to be a barren land, and no one cared about it. After we rented it, we planted some cash crops to supplement our family income. Unexpectedly... It’s quite profitable!”

"Um?"

Daimaru frowned slightly, feeling a little displeased with Qian's words. The other party also knew that Daimaru was more disgusted with the first-line ninja army buying property. Chien and Yami and a group of subordinates joined forces to buy property, and they must do it in the name of relatives and friends.

Today's Sunagakure Village certainly does not have detailed regulations that stipulate that ninjas and their families are not allowed to do business. In Sunagakure Village, there are only one or two people who open snack bars, flower shops and puppet making workshops.

"Let's just leave it like this for now. There's no need to rush to get rid of it. It's definitely not okay for you to be sidelined, but...it's understandable!"

Due to the initial selection of talents, most of the cadres under Daimaru came from poor families. They became ninjas in order to support their families. Daimaru was not a stingy person, and he was paid a lot, but he could not stand up to his weak foundation. The whole family was hungry , and there are even quite a few like this.

The Country of Wind is full of opportunities, but those who can seize them are still a small group of people who stand tall and see far.

Now there is such a contradiction in Sunagakure Village. The first-line ninja troops are not allowed to buy properties. Many opportunities that are just around the corner are not available to private forces. In addition to official capital, there are also wealthy families like Miss Saya's family. Valve has the strength to receive these fruits that are about to mature.

Instead of allowing those established forces to continue to expand, it would be better to let upstarts such as Qian, Yeme and Saho stretch their hands.

The vast majority of civilians can still only do some grassroots work to make a living. There is no need for the top forces to rush to suppress it, but it is a good thing after there are more people sharing the pie.

but……

"Everything will be done in accordance with the rules. After the expiration date, the industrial funds and public welfare institutions that will be established in the village will be introduced as strategic investments, and then listed on the securities exchange market to show fairness..."

"You...don't object?"

Qian said shyly,

"We were not the ones who started this matter. After someone got in touch with each other, they directly took our share. We are all neighbors, so it's not easy to refuse forcefully..."

"I understand the ways of the world, no need to explain!"

Daimaru waved his hand,

"As long as it is legal, you can do it, but we are all people in power and we must be more cautious. For us, it is just a breeze blowing in our face and falling on our compatriots at the grassroots level, which is more than a million pounds!"

"I see!"

"Actually, this is also a good thing. I am too busy and my eyes are fixed on heights. It is impossible to keep these trivial matters in mind all the time. There are actually only two things in governing a country: making the pie and dividing the pie. Now we are still in the early stages. State, unfair pie sharing exists, but it is not the main problem. The biggest drawback of our Kingdom of Wind is that we make too few pies. The general public is too weak and has no ability to make more pies. The old forces have naturally stabilized. , do not favor leap-forward development that is too risky. Only upstarts like you have more motivation to work hard to create more big cakes outside of traditional fields..."

Daimaru pointed to a large patch of green shoots that had just grown in front of him.

"Other than you, who could know the opportunity here, be absolutely sure of success, and have the ability to make it happen? If it were left in the hands of others, I'm afraid they wouldn't even have the ability to solve the problem of irrigation water. No matter what, you have done so many great things. I can eat the pie myself, and save the motivation to grab other people's pie. The process is flawed, and morally it is suspected of enriching one's own pockets and using power for personal gain, but with so much extra pie, it's not too bad..."

"If you put it like that, I can probably understand how to deal with similar things in the future!"

Qian nodded knowingly, feeling very lucky that his immediate boss was Daimaru. He was a headstrong guy who also knew when to be flexible.

"I'm lucky to have you and Yemu helping me. If it hadn't been for your silent efforts over the years, I wouldn't be where I am today..."

Being able to keep up with Daimaru and also complete every task that is not well known to outsiders very seriously is really difficult for the two teammates.

"I've neglected to care for you all these years. I wonder how your family is doing?"

"Not bad! You know, although my family is quite ordinary, it is still much better off than yours. Now that my parents are more and more comfortable, it is rare for them to have other thoughts?"

"Huh? It's really..."

Daimaru was stunned, and when he saw Qianna's expression that seemed to be happy but helpless, he immediately came to his senses,

"Are you urging you to go on a blind date?"

"No! My mother is pregnant again!"

"That...what a surprise!"

Daimaru, who was startled, quickly made up his mind and said,

"Auntie is not yet forty years old. If you really want to, it's okay. After all, it's a happy event..."

Residents of Sunagakure Village generally get married and have children at an early age. Qian is only in his early twenties, and his mother is only about forty years old.

For example, Daimaru's mother, Wu Ye, got married late because she was an outsider. In addition, Daimaru's father passed away early and lacked a supporter. Among the same families, they are relatively poor; Qian's ancestors were local households, although they were not wealthy. Her background and connections are not bad, and raising a daughter like Qian is quite easy.

Nowadays, the younger residents of the Kingdom of Wind will plan their future according to their family background.

With Bentou, having more children has become a good choice.

Why will there be a terrible baby boom in the next few years after the war?

As long as the victorious countries enjoy the dividends of the war, it is quite profitable to have children. The collective wisdom of the general public cannot be counted on, but they are still quite sensitive to the situation around them.

Due to insufficient population, Sunagakure Village and the Country of Wind introduced a large number of immigrants, and their compatriots saw it.

Since the shortage of people is serious and we would rather benefit outsiders, then having more children is definitely not wrong.

"The due date is next month, and I don't know if it will be a brother or a sister!"

Qianya chuckled and responded,

"I never thought that I would be a sister one day..."

"It seems that the medical force has to be divided into a group of midwives. The obstetrics and gynecology department of the hospital is expected to be very busy in the future..."

As they talked, the two walked through the wide artificial canal and saw an endless windbreak of date palms, palm trees, hibiscus and bald cypress...
