Red Dust

Soon after, Daimaru, who left in a hurry, did not notice the white-haired youth with a hood, pretending to be an ordinary tourist, with an inexplicable smile, and habitually propped up the glasses frame on the bridge of his nose:

"I was almost discovered! Now is not the time to contact... But, it's almost too soon!"

Although he is not afraid of a face-to-face encounter, Daimaru, who has become famous, is obviously not as easy to deal with as it was a few months ago.

Following the pharmacist pocket who came from the unknown battle at sea, I originally wondered if there would be an opportunity for the mist ninja, but I didn't expect to meet an acquaintance by chance.

This time, there is no special goal, but it is not good to come back empty-handed.

There are not many test subjects in the southern stronghold. Sweep the nearby underground bounty office, catch a few decent wandering warriors and rebels and go back, and you can also serve as a sparring partner for Sasuke Uchiha.

In addition, Deidara, who has just "started", also needs to make a lot of preparations and spend a lot of money to revive it, and it has to come in handy.

Chapter 0437 Necessary pomp

From a high altitude, the power station and desalination plant look like a series of low-rise bungalows crawling along the coastline.

But in fact, most of the active main areas are below the horizon.

The entire factory area has nothing to do with the magnificent atmosphere. If they were not told, no one would think that this is a seawater desalination plant that took a lot of resources to build.

In fact, many residents of the nearby oasis have been to the camp many times and do not know what Sand Ninja wants to do here.

Many of the caravans that came and went did not understand the nature of this settlement, but regarded it as a temporary settlement and a distribution center for goods.

Until today, the busy sand ninjas have become more numerous, and they have attracted everyone's attention.

"Feng Ying?"

When Gaara, surrounded by everyone, entered the hastily cleaned up camp, everyone woke up like a dream. This place is not a simple supply station, otherwise, Fengying would not have to come in person.

only……

"Fengying is so young?"

Everyone already knows the news of the birth of the new Fengying. The changes at the top, and the people below are not so sensitive. When I saw the appearance of Gaara, I had a real impression.

As the local half "earth emperor", Daimaru received the dusty Kaze and his entourage.

After the formal ceremonial interaction ended, Daimaru privately invited "little brother-in-law" into his personal residence for a deep discussion.

"I thought you wouldn't be able to come, why did it suddenly happen?"

"Before I left, I informed the people below, and before they quarreled with a result, I set off directly..."

As if remembering the faces of those people, Gaara couldn't help but let out a smile.

After receiving Daimaru's report, Gaara didn't tell anyone, just suppressed the matter, and announced it suddenly when it was imminent, which caught the elders who were used to Gaara's "well-behaved and sensible" style by surprise.

There are naturally supporters, and there are many people who oppose it. Some people even thought maliciously, let Gaara die outside, and the backlash after killing the red sand scorpion and Deidara did not come, Konoha Village asked if support was needed, and Sandyin Village's answer was also ambiguous.

Before reaching a consensus, Gaara left with the members of the Shadow Guard who were loyal to him, leaving behind the senior advisors who looked at each other in dismay.

Although Gaara doesn't take Gaara seriously, no one has the desire to stop him.

After all, he is the leader in name. Once he makes a move, it will be like tearing his face.

Think about how Gaara came to power?

strength!

The dark history of the past, although criticized by people, is also the source of fear. Although Gaara has reformed, who can guarantee that he will not return to his old ways and shoot to death those who are tough to block?

Talking about the rules with the elders and advisors, to put it nicely, is to respect the seniors. In fact, it means to compromise with each other. Once the superiors have no scruples, the people below will not have any means of checking and balance except for the fish and the net.

"Occasional willfulness is understandable! You are still young and a little emotional, the elders will not take it to heart..."

Daimaru said with a wicked smile,

"Just stay for a few days when you come, there's no rush anyway..."

For serious matters, it's not my turn to make up my mind.

Let's test the bottom line and let everyone know that Gaara is not a person without temper. When I go back, I admit my mistake, and honestly counsel for a while, and it will be all right.

Even if some people don't want to give up, what can they do, and then change the wind and shadow?

Even Fu Yi, who is not pleasing to Gaara's eyes, would not think so frivolously.

"I see!"

Gaara, who replied, looked at Daimaru's humble residence.

A slightly larger military tent was transformed into a residence that integrates office and life.

It seems that the breath of life is not too strong. Daimaru is not an ascetic who will refuse a superior material life, but he does not deliberately pursue it. As long as it is comfortable enough, it is okay to be simple.

"Why not build an office building?"

"No hurry, wait for the desalination plant to start running, and if you have money, build a luxury office building..."

"You're so welcome!"

"When starting a business, it's okay to share weal and woe with my subordinates. When it comes to enjoying the results, I, the 'boss', are all poor. How can the people below handle themselves?"

The subordinates are bigger than the leaders, do you want to mix up?

"Appropriate extravagance is not a bad thing, and let the onlookers who want to enter have confidence in us..."

It's not decent, how can you talk business with those "thumbs up" who have huge sums of money?

Gaara smiled noncommittally:

"Excessive and wasteful, you are all righteous!"

"This world is so superficial, I can't help it!"

Daimaru spread his hands carelessly,

"People are not easy to speculate, they can only make use of the situation. The world recognizes such rules!"

"As you please! Don't get caught..."

"rest assured!"

How to describe these people in the ninja world?

"Leeks" who have not experienced the test of a perfect financial meat grinder have almost no concept of various "hidden exploitation".

It is good to be able to instinctively feel the relationship between strength and weakness, wealth and poverty, war and peace, stability and killing.

Only a very few elites can see through the inner essence of the world.

The leader of a "progressive organization" in the ninja world like Nagato actually believes in the ridiculous idea of ​​collecting tailed beasts and using absolute force to forcefully eliminate the war in the ninja world. What the hell did Lai also teach them in the first place.

Not as good as Madara Uchiha's "Eye of the Moon" plan!

The Ninja world version of "The Matrix", although it is a scam in the end, the idea is not too biased.

After a short rest, Daimaru led Gaara, riding a simple elevator, to the ground several dozen meters deep, through the metal corridors, and came to the huge generator set.

Along the way, Gaara was surprised to see that the original oil lamp had gone out, and the brilliance of the incandescent lamp had dispelled all the darkness.

"Didn't you say that the ceremony was held in the evening, and it has already started?"

Daimaru grinned:

"It's a trial production! If you don't try it in advance, what should you do if you make a fool of yourself in public?"

Although the thermal power plants in the Shinobi world are primitive, they also have mature technology; multi-stage flash desalination of seawater, although Daimaru knows the principle, but the actual craftsmanship is also ignorant. World version of the desalination intermodal plant.

Because the coal is not yet in place, we have to temporarily collect scattered coal in the Land of Winds for emergency, and use giant puppets to provide power to make up for the shortage. The power system is no longer a problem, and seawater desalination is relatively troublesome.

0438 Double Track

In the long run, the scale of the existing power plants and desalination plants is far from enough, but it is still in the stage of trial and error adjustment while running, and it is not necessary to adopt too high standards to require new plants.

With limited coal resources, it is impossible for the plant to maintain a minimum operation.

In order to alleviate the lack of energy, a batch of modified war machines were disassembled into parts, moved into the ground, and then assembled, under the control of the puppet master apprentice, to provide auxiliary power for the unit and boiler.

Boiler drainage in thermal power generation, after reaching the saturated state, enters the flash chamber, and then the pressure is reduced by the pressure reducing valve, and the high temperature saturated steam is circulated and cooled, the energy of the thermal power station is efficiently utilized, and the seawater desalination speed is increased step by step.

Primitive, rough, and even the noise of machines and puppets reverberating underground, making people feel a little irritable.

Only after seeing the slightly steaming clear water slowly pouring into the underground reservoir, did everyone's face look a little better.

Because most of the manpower to run the factory are ninjas from Sandyin Village, Daimaru has paid attention to it and has not developed in the direction of a "sweatshop". Unfortunately, there are insufficient resources and there is not much room to improve the working environment.

At the beginning, I can only endure it a little bit, and when I have more money later, I will give out more subsidies.

Fortunately, the physical quality of ninjas is far superior to that of ordinary people. Ordinary people are really unable to adapt to this kind of environment. Over time, most of them will fall into a sub-health state.

If it weren't for the production of fresh water, and the tasks given by Daimaru were well paid, even ninjas didn't want to work long hours in such a place.

After patiently greeting all the compatriots who worked hard, Gaara and Daimaru stood in front of the dark pipe with a diameter close to a person's height and listened to the murmur of water flowing inside.

"Iron sand is actually not a very good material for water pipelines. Stainless steel and antifouling alloys are too expensive. They can't be used now, so they can only make do with it..."

With the three generations of Kazekage, Daimaru alone can build the entire underground water network with sand and iron materials in two or three days. The price is a waste of time and insignificant chakra.

Iron sand is fine for a short time, but it must be replaced after a long time.

"Take your time, we can wait!"

Gaara nodded knowingly.

Such a big thing can't be done overnight, and it's already very good to be able to do this in a short period of time.

Daimaru stepped forward, unscrewed the valve that was originally used for sampling water, and a clear stream of water spewed out, filling a small bucket in a short while.

Gaara didn't shy away from picking up a water ladle with a wooden handle, filling it up and taking a sip.

"It doesn't taste very good, but it's fresh water..."

"It's inevitable! The need to improve water quality will be discussed later!"

Daimaru replied calmly.

There are many components in seawater, and there are many volatile substances. Distillation and desalination does not mean that all impurities can be removed.

It is good to be able to remove most of the salt and harmful substances. The real industrial preparation of drinking water has astonishing processes. The activated carbon filtration and chlorine water disinfection known to ordinary people are only one of the trivial steps.

For the residents of the Land of Winds, people who have a bad taste and are not suitable for drinking too much may have diarrhea. This trivial matter is really not worth mentioning.
