Red Dust

Daimaru was really overjoyed when Grit found himself and implicitly hinted that Fuyi intended to support him in developing the ocean.

Even if it was just understanding, it was a chance for Daimaru to fight for it.

Daimaru, who was a little bit caught off guard, spent two or three days thinking about a plan that could be seen overnight, and let Grit pass it over to Fuyi in private.

Soon after, several elders who knew Daimaru knew about it.

"Has our Sand Shinobi been doing too much recently?"

Daimaru's plan has already been read, and Longsha is not very optimistic, but he holds the attitude that it is okay to give it a try.

Markey nodded in agreement:

"Air combat troops, conflict with Iwa Ninja, regain lost ground, and then jointly train with Konoha Ninja, exchange students, and next year's joint Chunin exam, if you go south to the ocean, isn't it a bit too public?"

The strength is not enough and too arrogant, it is easy to attract jealousy.

Maki and Lonza's concerns are not groundless.

Konoha Village, with a big family and a big business, is fearless, and its allies are steadfast. Not to mention Yanyin Village, a feud, Yunyin Village and Wuyin Village, which are related to ordinary people, seem to have the meaning of increasing protection against Sand Ninja.

Daimaru's heart sank, a little helpless.

Even if they were a little unwilling, they knew that what the two of them said was justified.

After the defeat of the "Konoha Collapse Plan", Sand Shinobi negotiated and regained part of the mission share, but in the end suffered heavy losses.

It will take some time to regain his strength and digest the benefits of Kazeyage's fourth generation and a large number of compatriots in exchange for their lives.

At present, the logistics support unit where Temari is located is the "reserve" formed. It will take at least two years to come in handy to fill the vacancy of a large number of people killed in battle.

Coupled with the northern homeland that he took back not long ago, if you don't manage it well, there may be a risk of losing your gains when Iwanin recovers.

Now that even Fengying doesn't have Sandyin Village, I'm really satisfied.It would be perfect if we could choose a satisfactory Kazekage Wudaimu as soon as possible.

Fu Yi silently pondered for a while, then looked at Daimaru, whose face was sinking like water:

"What do you think?"

"Hard to say!"

Daimaru replied,

"I've done too much sand ninja this year, it's time to cool down, it's too impetuous! But..."

Daimaru hesitated for a while, but still suggested,

"Time waits for no one! I'm afraid that after a year or two, there will be no chance. The five major Ninja villages have no time to take care of him..."

Yun Ren and Yan Ren confronted each other. They were located in the north and could not interfere with the southern sea frontier. Konoha Village had just stabilized the situation and did not want to fight.

Sandyin Village's biggest opponent in developing the ocean is Wuyin Village.

Like Sand Shinobi, Mist Shinobu had just died of the fourth generation of Mizukage, but fortunately there was Terumi Mei, a strong man who could barely hold on to the overall situation, and the elder Yuan Shi was also able to hold on to the situation.

However, Yakura, the fourth generation of Mizukage, is dead, and the three tails are nowhere to be found.

In such a comparison, it is not necessarily better than Shayin Village.

The mist ninjas who began to uphold the open foreign policy, tried to change the traditions in the blood mist, and when they changed, they would definitely not conflict with the sand ninjas.

The ninja world can stop the sand ninjas from "staking their horses" in the southern waters, and almost all of them are not in the state. With such a good opportunity, don't rush to demarcate the sphere of influence. When the Five Shadows Conference opens, the game of force expansion will be over. If If you can't find a new continent, you can only explore outer space.

Maki and Longsha smiled at each other.

It's a good thing for the younger generation to be aggressive. In fact, the two of them are not against it, they just feel that it is unnecessary.

"The village is now in ruins, and it is definitely impossible to invest heavily in the development of the South Seas. However, it must be a good thing to expand into areas in the south that no one has paid attention to..."

The buffer zone between several major powers is not suitable for big fights, nor can it be swallowed.

The large and small islands in the south add up to a large area.

"You mean, let me try first?"

Fu Yi nodded:

"Get ready first, measure the chart, find water..."

Well, it's not bad to have such a result.

Without affecting the overall situation, limited support is the conclusion given by Fu Yi.

Success is gratifying, but failure is acceptable.

That night, the worried Jōnin Centipede sighed in relief after learning about the results of Daimaru's discussions with several elders.

……

In the base for the rest and training of the members of the air combat unit, Daimaru is at his desk studying.

On the opposite wall, there was a large map of the southern waters of the Ninja World, and the table for a meeting of more than ten people was full of messy documents and drawings.

"Water, what a big problem! 』

Daimaru, who was mentally exhausted after thinking for a long time, sat up and stretched.

Everyone knows that the land of wind is seriously short of water.

However, few people realize that in the less developed era, ocean navigation and drinking water were also a big problem.

Because of the seawater everywhere, it is easy to overlook how important freshwater recharge points are during the voyage.

Although there are many large and small islands in the sea, there are very few that have ready-made fresh water. Coral reefs, guano islands and uninhabited islands account for the vast majority.

Every island that has fresh water to supply is extremely important.

If Sand Ninja wants to stably occupy a large number of islands in the south, the issue of livability must be considered. If the establishment of a base also requires the transportation of fresh water from other places, it will be too much loss.

In fact, to put it mildly, the Land of Winds itself is extremely dry, and there is no fresh water to support overseas.

Being located inland, there is really no way; but the coastal area is still a little bit of a turnaround.

Almost inexhaustible seawater, if it can be converted into fresh water, even if it is only a very small part, it will be of great help to Sand Ninja.

Is desalination difficult?

It's not difficult!

The hard part is controlling the cost of desalination.

The southern sea area is dry, hot and has little rainfall. The use of primitive solar energy to evaporate seawater to prepare fresh water can ease the difficulty of water use a little, but the amount is too small to help.

Chapter 0382 There is nothing to do

When the whole ninja world knows that the country of wind is seriously short of water, it is basically impossible for the residents in the country of wind and sand to buy cheap fresh water.

There is no shortage of hardships such as sitting on the ground and asking for cards. Even Konoha Village, which is an ally, sells strategic materials to Shayin Village at a lot higher than the market price.

In a sense, there are not a lot of precious metals in the Land of Wind, but the money will never be enough. Key resources are controlled by others, and exploitation is inevitable.

Daimaru had thought about it for a long time before, and wanted to find a way to alleviate the water shortage in Sandyin Village, but it was impractical.

The most direct means, of course, is to use the power of ninjas.

Can water ninja desalinate sea water?

It should work, but Daimaru doesn't know.

However, to support a ninja village, or even the fresh water of a big country, how many water escape ninjas are needed?

With this spare time, it may be more cost-effective to let these ninjas do tasks and buy water with money.

What's more, there are not many ninjas who are good at water escape in Shayin Village.

"Purely relying on "manpower" cannot solve the problem! 』

It is not difficult to come to this conclusion.

So Daimaru thought of using the "dirty body" of infinite chakra to help.

Not to mention whether it can be achieved or not, at least the current Daimaru does not have the ability to learn the S-level forbidden technique such as reincarnation of the dirty earth.

In Daimaru's mind, the ideal desalination method suitable for Shayin Village should be limited participation of ninjas, using ninjutsu to cross the key technical gap, and then relying on ordinary people and even natural forces to achieve a large amount of seawater desalination.

In view of this, among several suitable methods, solar-heated distillation is the first to be eliminated, and the amount of fresh water preparation is too small.

The advantages and disadvantages of the reverse osmosis method are very obvious. The biggest problem is that the chemical technology of the Ninja world is too backward, and there is no way to produce a cheap and efficient reverse osmosis membrane.

Originally the most energy-saving low-temperature multi-effect distillation desalination technology is the method that Daimaru has the most high hopes for. The result is a pity, whether it is materials, heat conduction and exchange, and technological maturity, it is far from the ideal height.

As for those desalination methods that look more high-end but more difficult, there is basically no possibility of realization in the ninja world.

In the end, only one of the more traditional desalination technologies stood out.

That is multi-stage flash evaporation.

In terms of energy saving, multi-stage flash evaporation is far inferior to low temperature and multi-effect, but it is superior in that the process is simple and the material requirements are not high.

The most important advantage for Daimaru is the large amount of seawater desalination in a short period of time.

In addition, the safety is high, and ordinary people are competent enough to operate; if it is a ninja, it can even give full play to the advantages of extraordinary power.

In the end, Daimaru made up his mind to choose multi-stage flash evaporation. One is that it can be combined with a thermal power station to prepare fresh water with the waste heat of the power plant; play.

The entire ninja world is in the transition stage from the steam age to the electricity age. Since the petrochemical industry has not developed, the internal combustion engine has no room to play.

Stupid, stupid, is the current state of the ninja industry.

High-power, high-output, low-efficiency mechanical and electrical devices are the mainstream.

This level of technology is especially suitable for super-large thermal power plants and multi-stage flash desalination plants.

As for the coal and iron resources required by thermal power plants, as well as the pollution caused by them, the Ninja world has not yet reached the point where it needs to be considered.

"A power generation and multi-stage flash desalination plant by the sea can already support a small town! 』

The industrial towns prospered by factories are rarely seen in the ninja world, and there are many Daimaru before crossing.

The idea should have a great possibility to be realized. The problem is that the initial investment is too scary, and it is impossible for the village to invest too much money without seeing the water created by Daimaru.

But without strong support, where can Daimaru change a power plant and a desalination plant?

"How can I convince the elders who have absolutely no concept of industrialization and scientific spirit to agree with my ideas? 』

The biggest problem at present is to convince others that the so-called "multi-stage flash desalination technology" is not what Daimaru is talking about in order to cheat money.
