Four hundred and fortieth chapters on the right track(1/2)
"Master, how do you know there is water underground?" Bai Heyang asked.
"Actually, there is water underground. The main reason why deserts are difficult to control is that the dunes are moving, but now we have solved the problem of dunes moving. Will the remaining problems still be troublesome?" Watson asked.
"That's right. Even if the water is dug out, it will be buried soon by the dunes. The dunes are so thick that even if it rains, the rain will soon leak. No wonder I watched some documentaries telling the story of the underground river under the desert." Bai Heyang said.
"In fact, there are many places in the desert. In the past, it was not deserts, but oasis, or even cities. But for some reason, those cities became dead cities later. Some people say that it was because of the lack of water, and the residents had to migrate to other places to settle down." Zhou Zheng said.
Watson nodded, "The technological capabilities at that time were limited, and it was hard to imagine that people today could take groundwater from a depth of hundreds of meters underground. However, we don't need to take groundwater. We just need to condense the water vapor in the air to supply the water supply to our Chinese medicine plantation."
"How to gather water?" Bai Heyang and Zhou Zheng asked.
Watson smiled, "You are busy again."
Watson took out a bunch of talismans like a magic trick: "This time you act separately. Put these talismans in a specific place. Then I will activate them all. We will form a huge water-gathering array here. The water vapor around us will automatically gather."
"I understand now why Master dares to plant Chinese medicine in this desert. With Master's hand, this desert suddenly became a treasure land." Bai Heyang said.
"That's all, when did our master do business at a loss?" Zhou Zheng said.
"Take it now. Don't be stingy. Although this formation is simpler than the previous defensive formation, it is not much simpler. You don't want to stop until you finish your work." Watson said.
Zhou Zheng smiled and said, "Master, don't worry. Although we are lazy, we are still unambiguous in doing serious things."
Zhou Zheng and Bai Heyang and his men took a long time to place all the talismans. Although the water-gathering array is simple, Watson's array is not simple at all. This array is actually a compound array, so the level is lower than that of the outside defense array, but the complexity is not low.
Watson was not idle either. Taking advantage of this time, he moved the seeds of Chinese medicinal materials he brought out from the space. There are many and a wide variety. Priority is given to planting medicinal materials with a huge demand in Fahrenheit. In the future, slowly consider planting some rare medicinal materials, or even ordinary medicinal materials. They will also be planted here. After all, if all of this large place is plated, it will be enough to supply the entire China.
When Bai Heyang and Zhou Zheng rushed back with sweat, they looked at the mountains of Chinese herbal seedlings piled up in front of Watson. They were all stunned.
"Master. Is the military coming with planes to deliver supplies?" Bai Heyang asked.
"Yeah." Watson said.
"Why didn't we see the plane flying through the sky?" Zhou Zheng grabbed his head.
"You are a clever eye?" Watson said angrily. He didn't want to deceive these disciples. He was too lazy to explain to them. With the current conditions, it would be impossible for them to have a space magic weapon. If you tell them, there would be no benefit except to make them envious.
"Master, are we the only ones who do such seedlings?" Bai Heyang thought of the most serious problem.
"What? Don't want to do it? Don't want to do it, go back to the East China Sea as soon as possible. But don't think about coming here in the future." Watson said.
"No, no, no, I don't, but we have too few people. With so many seedlings, we will definitely not be able to plant them all in one go. If they all die, it will be troublesome." Bai Heyang said.
"Yes. Master, you have to think of a solution. In a few days, the engineering troops will come to build a house. Where will these seedlings be placed?" Zhou Zheng said.
"Don't worry, it's impossible for you to rely on so many seedlings to rely on you. Then you can get the Year of the Monkey and Horse Month? Besides, let's plant them, can you plant them? Manager Zhao has recruited a group of farmers in the countryside to plant medicinal materials and will be responsible for the management of these medicinal materials in the future." Watson said.
"Why are they here?" Zhou Zheng asked.
"Come here by plane. Our supplies must also be delivered. Now, in this case, we can only rely on the plane." Watson said.
"The cost is amazing!" Bai Heyang shook his head.
"What's this little money? All those foreigners come to treat their illnesses in the future will be counted on them." Zhou Zheng said.
"I'm not as bad as you think." Watson said.
"Master, we didn't say you are bad. We mean you are good at making money. If you make money from foreigners, no one will say you are bad. Don't foreigners' cars be sold in our country to raise a few percent of the price? When they come to our place to treat diseases, we have to increase the price several times." Zhou Zheng said.
"Yes, that's how it should be. They love to come or not. Our medicinal materials are grown from our country's land. People in our country naturally need to enjoy discounts. Why do people in other countries enjoy discounts? Don't they like to engage in technical blockades? We also have a technical blockade. If we don't agree, we won't even treat them." Bai Heyang said.
"What words have become bad things when you both say." Watson said.
"Master, we are right. By the way, why haven't your water-gathering array been opened yet? Open it quickly. Let's open our eyes and see how this water-gathering array gathers water." Zhou Zheng said.
"Okay, then start." Watson recited a spell, and a spiritual power flew out from his hand and shot directly into the array eye of the water-gathering array. A spiritual power suddenly shook around the array eye. The array of spiritual power shook around. Then the water around began to gradually gather, and black clouds gathered above the large shield. Water vapor slowly gathered into raindrops in the clouds.
"Boom!" A rumbling thunder sounded in the dark clouds.
"Isn't it really thunder in the sky? We don't even have a place to hide here. If the thunder is really hit, we can't hide." Bai Heyang said.
"I don't hide, and I don't need to hide. If thunder strikes, it will also strike you." Zhou Zheng said.
"Why just chop me and not you?" Bai Heyang asked.
"You have a lot of bad water, who will you chop if you don't chop?" Zhou Zheng said.
"You're just a stolen water. Oh, it's raining. It's so heavy!" Bai Heyang looked around and found that it was raining everywhere in the entire medicinal planting base, but there was no rain at Watson station.
"Master, why is it not raining here?" When Bai Heyang walked to Watson, he was already covered in moisture.
Zhou Zheng rushed over, "It's so strange. It's raining everywhere. Why didn't there rain drops here?"
"Master. This is not what you control, right?" Bai Heyang asked.
"What do you think?" Watson smiled.
"Master, are you a god? How can you call the wind and rain?" Bai Heyang asked.
"If you reach the stage of the elixir, you can do this too," said Watson.
"Can you do the innate stage?" Bai Heyang asked.
"Unless you improve your cultivation to the peak of your innate level, you may be able to barely do it." Watson said.
"Then you get the Year of the Monkey and Horse Month." Bai Heyang was immediately depressed.
Watson was still very fast here. A large shield was directly connected to a large shield. All the large shields were connected into a line and directly extended to a place with highways. Then there was road construction. Watson directly used magic to harden the ground and directly made a road, which was much faster than the speed of the engineering team building roads. In a few days, a spacious road connected all the shields. Vehicles transporting supplies drove in one by one.
"Master, your machine is completely a perpetual motion machine. After going all the way, it has become a road. If you go to contract the highway, our country's road and bridge companies will have to drink the northwest wind. The most important thing is that you have completely solved the problem of regeneration of building materials." Bai Heyang said.
"How about you let Baiheyang go and build a road and bridge construction company. I can guarantee that Baiheyang can earn a lot of money back in the future." Zhou Zheng said.
"That's not possible. I won't do this. I have to learn Taoism, and this move is very important." Bai Heyang said.
"Don't talk nonsense, the people who come to grow medicinal materials have been summoned. You guys will help me watch from today onwards." Watson said.
Those who came to grow medicinal materials were farmers who came to work from the south. Fahrenheit Pharmaceuticals gave a lot of money, so they didn't care wherever they went to farm. When they came to this desert, they were quite worried at first, but when they got here, they found that the desert was not scary at all. They couldn't even feel that it was in the desert. If they hadn't come, they saw the desert on both sides of the road, they would have thought they had arrived at that large farm.
Ma Xiaoming is a farmer in southern Hunan Province. After going to the East China Sea, he found a job, but it didn't cost much a month and lived in a very expensive place. After a month, he could fill his stomach. When he saw Fahrenheit recruiting planting workers, he immediately signed up. As for where to plant, he didn't even look at it. He just saw that he had to buy food and accommodation from 5,000 yuan a month. He didn't pay attention to it at all that it was clearly stated that it was going to the desert to do planting.
"How to plant in the desert? Isn't this nonsense?" Ma Xiaoming said.
He Yunyun is Ma Xiaoming's fellow townsman and signed up with Ma Xiaoming.
"You care whether he can grow it or not, and the pharmaceutical industry will pay us monthly salary. I care whether they grow ginseng or radish." He Yunyun said.
"Salary should not be a problem. Fahrenheit Pharmaceuticals is a big company. I heard that all the drugs were sold abroad. The one-twenty-year-old drug you bought last time was produced by them. The medicine is expensive and the effect is really good." Ma Xiaoming said.
"Why is there no wind and sand in this desert? It's really strange. There is obviously a desert on both sides of the road!" He Yunyun said.
"Yes. It looks like it's the same as a painting." Ma Xiaoming said.
There are hundreds of people like Ma Xiaoming who come to do planting. These people are far from enough for Watson. Planting medicinal materials is not like crops. This thing requires careful cultivation. Otherwise, there will be no harvest at all.
With more people, the progress of planting activities is naturally very rapid. With a large number of machinery, the speed is even faster. However, future management is a big problem. The area that an industrial planting worker can take care of is very limited. Fortunately, medicinal materials are not actually a delicate thing. Pharmaceuticals have understood their habits. Planting is still very easy.
"Master, I always feel that this place is more comfortable than the base in the East China Sea. What's going on?" Bai Heyang asked.
"It's actually very simple. Although this place is a desert, it is a pure land that is not polluted. So the air is naturally much better than ordinary places." Watson said.
In a month, the plantation finally looked a little bit. Planters no longer sleep in temporary tents, but in houses. Although the house is not a brick house, but an iron house, it is still quite comfortable inside. The temperature here is very suitable, let alone air conditioners, even fans, etc. This surprised many people. In the desert area, the temperature is very high during the day, but at night, the temperature will drop significantly, but here, whether it is day or night, the temperature difference is not particularly large.
The medicinal materials are planted very well. Almost all of them survive. Those who sow seeds have a very high germination rate. What is most surprising is that when the fields are short of water, there will always be a rain here in a very timely manner. The pool where workers live is always filled with water. The water towers for domestic water have never been cut off. No one knows where this water comes from. There is also electricity for domestic use, and there is no generator or wind power equipment for power generation. However, there is always electricity in the planting base.
"We don't feel like we are growing medicinal materials here." Ma Xiaoming said.
"I'm not growing medicinal materials, what are I doing?" He Yunyun asked.
"I feel like I am enjoying my happiness! The elderly in the village are not as easy as us. We don't spend a penny on food and accommodation a month, and we still have a salary of 5,000 yuan. What are we doing if we are not enjoying our happiness? It would be great if we could bring our wife here." Ma Xiaoming said.
"Yes. If your lover is willing to come, we still lack staff here. You can bring your wives and your relatives can also call them. As long as you do not violate our rules, you can do things." When Watson came, he heard two workers talking about things.
"Mr. Hua, is it really possible?" Ma Xiaoming asked.
"Of course. When did I tell lies?" Watson said.
"If this happens, I will call my wife to come over. But she can't find this place." Ma Xiaoming said.
"You ask them to go to Donghai. I'll give you a call and just make that call when you arrive in Donghai." Watson said.
"At that time, can I manage the same place with my wife?" Ma Xiaoming asked.
"Of course, as long as you complete the daily workload," Watson said.
"That's great." Ma Xiaoming was very excited.
"You are still used to living here?" Watson asked.
"It's okay. It's just a little secluded. Everyone lives far away and is not very convenient for entertainment. But it's pretty good. The air here is very good, and it's more comfortable than my hometown. When my wife comes, life will not be so monotonous." Ma Xiaoming said.
"What you are talking about is indeed a problem. There are still men here, so it is definitely not the case if this continues. Don't worry, the situation here will get better and better. You must also do your best to grow the herbs well. There will be more and more varieties in the future, and more and more people will be treated. You have made contributions." Watson said.
"We have heard of Fahrenheit before. If you have a cold, we all use special cold medicines. Take one pill and it's good." Ma Xiaoming said.
"Don't worry, Mr. Hua. If you don't cherish such a good job, that's not a big deal." He Yunyun said.
"By the way, if you have children who have difficulties in going to school, you can also come to us. We have our own school. The school is free of tuition. But it is not that easy to come in. But our own employees naturally have to enjoy this preferential treatment." Watson said.
After getting on track here, Watson returned to the East China Sea.
"Xiaosen, it's better not to go to the street lately, it's not safe." Zheng Jingying said.
"What's going on?" Watson just came back and didn't know what was going on.
