In a World Filled with Deserts, an Old Man with Electronic Money

Marilyn is sweet.

"I'm spicy."

"Lord Tallow, I think the curry is dry."

"Really? Medium spicy is the best balance."

"I'm not good at being too spicy, so please be sweet."

"It would be a dry choice. I think it would be better if we defeated the Beast in the heat and sweated. Hey, Tallow."

"I'll make three pots."

Not to commemorate the spread of the sea, but today's dinner menu was seafood curry.

I bought the ingredients at "Online Shopping" for the reason that the number of marine creatures has not increased yet, but I didn't think that opinions would be divided about the taste of curry...

Marilyn and flaw are sweet.

Mu and Urilin are medium spicy.

The label and eyeshah are dry.

Because each one had a different taste for spiciness, we prepared three pots to make curry.

I guess I like it dry.

"... Grand Chief Katu, this very fragrant and delicious smell... is the color zero..."

"That's forbidden!

Mr. Bijour, who is in charge of cultivation centered on the world trees, visited the castle, but as soon as he saw the pot containing curry, he said something that should not be said to those who would eat curry from now on.

I stopped it in a hurry.

"But this smells so good that it looks delicious."

"Do you want some?

"Give it to your partner. I'm glad I came for this time."

"What? What now?

"Now, let's eat this dish! So, what is this dish?

Curry.

"Using a lot of spices is a luxurious dish. Even if it is. I'm sweet."

Mr. Bijour liked curry and changed it, but he didn't like it too much because he was a fruit lover of desert elves, and he ate a little as sweet as his kids Marilyn and Flaw.

Later, curry roots sold well to desert elves, but they were overwhelmingly sweet.

"Sorry about the dessert. This fruit sorbet is cold and delicious."

After dinner, we listened to Mr. Bijour's report while eating fruit sorbets.

"It is the seedling of a world tree that all tribes thought to keep, but it is still a lot lost over the years. I checked and found that there were only five left. I'm going to select a candidate site to plant it."

"The legend that the world trees left a lot of seedlings was correct."

"That's right. But desert elves were wandering days until humans chased Oasis and fled into the moving city. I know a lot of things have been lost, but I can't deny it."

Instead of dying, I had to give up.

Could it possibly have been stolen by humans?

"Nevertheless, it is difficult to grow world trees even in our desert elves, rather than humans today. It must have remained a seedling tree."

If the world trees grow, they enrich the planted land and attract a lot of groundwater.

But it's hard to grow anyway.

Huge amounts of fertilizer and water will be required.

Once you grow up, you don't need so much water or fertilizer, and even if you don't take care of anything, you won't die if you leave it alone, but it's hard until you grow up.

Considering the amount of fertilizer and water purchased in "online shopping", I think it is a big national project.

If we can grow it completely, it will benefit more than the fertilizer and water we use, but I think that with that much fertilizer and water, ordinary countries and oasis will use it for agriculture.

Even desert elves were unable to grow the world's trees.

It will be more difficult for man.

"The seedlings of the world trees are to be searched for if there is time. Now I wonder where to plant those five world trees."

"The north, east and west of the Far South Sea, right? It's better not to be too far from the sea."

Plant global trees to surround the sprawling South China Sea, and expand the green space of the "Southwestern Tribal Union" to promote development.

I think this is the best.

"How about planting a global tree at the tip of the island because the ocean has spread and the land has been reduced to the south?

"The polar point....."

Even on Earth, the polar point of the planet should be cold, so it is not really suitable for planting world trees.

But since the poles of this world are hot, is planting okay?

Because it's troublesome that it didn't work after planting.

"Speaking of which, is it the extreme desert?

"In a desert with rocks and gravel, according to the legend passed down to our desert elves, there is only 'something' at the extreme."

"'Something's a little vague...'

"I agree with you, but I've only been told that."

Actually, there's a pole at the pole, but it might end there.

"Shall we send out an investigation team?

"No, I'll ask Bijour to plant and grow the remaining five world trees."

If you put the fertilizer and water in advance, Mr. Bijour will be able to do the rest.

Exploring the poles would be better for us.

Anyway, I'm relieved to have strong sandbags because of the labels.

"Gori, we can leave town to Gorimacho, and Marilyn and Urilin have to take care of the sea, so we'll explore."

"I see. But I don't want you to wait any longer."

"Why?

"In fact, some of the tribes that will join the Southwestern Tribal Union are dealing with seagoing vessels. The current pole is surrounded by the ocean."

You can't use a sandstorm, so you can send it to desert elves who can handle seagoing ships.

"I'm here. A desert elf that can handle seagoing ships."

"Yes, but the Central Sea is divided and controlled by a human country, and it is very difficult to live there as a people of the sea, and I have been told that we will meet here. It can also be used on sandboats, but sandboats are flat bottom, so it's dangerous to cross the sprawling South China Sea."

"The tribe is using a ship with a keel?

You know very well.

I'm not a sailor, so that's all I know.

Navigation techniques may differ between desert and sea, and it will take time for Mr. Bijour and his crew to get used to seagoing vessels.

It's faster and safer to wait for them.

"I see. I'll have them send me."

Well, I'll tell my brother that too.

We were to have desert elves who could operate seagoing vessels sent by ship to explore the polar point of "something".

Do you buy large quantities of water and fertilizer for the world's trees?
