Chapter 21 Desert Oasis, 10 acres of Elaeagnus elata forest


Chapter 21 Desert Oasis, 10 acres of Elaeagnus elata forest

After Richard set up the transaction, he went directly to rest. He never expected that it would cause such a heated discussion.

At this stage, what the novice lords lack most is undoubtedly food.

Each lord had to support hundreds of people, sometimes three to four hundred.

As soon as they opened their eyes, these residents opened their mouths to eat and drink, which made it difficult for most of them.

"Glory Era" is not a modern era where you can just go out and buy several trucks of rice.

If you want to obtain food, the most direct way at present is to hunt.

However, hunting inevitably encounters dangers and may even endanger life, making it a high-risk behavior.

It is rare that 70% of people can muster the courage to explore this strange world in the past two days.

And planting, even a plant like Elaeagnus lucidum that matures once a month, takes time.

Therefore, most people have very limited means of obtaining food and can only barely maintain their territory.

There are a few people with outstanding abilities who are not willing to sell too much of the food they obtain.

The small part that can be sold is simply a drop in the bucket for the market of 20 billion lords.

There are even fewer people as wealthy as Richard.

Amidst the heated discussions of countless people, he fell into a deep sleep.

Wake up early the next morning.

After finishing washing up, Richard went to the hall, had breakfast served by two unusually majestic cooks, and slowly opened the forum.

Two messages popped up in the private mailbox.

"Ding~ Once the item you are looking for is sold, you will get a 1-star resource treasure - spring water fragment*1."

"Ding~ Once the item you want to buy is sold, you will get a 1-star resource treasure - spring water*1."

After a cursory glance, Richard was sure that the Elaeagnus elata forest was in place

Then I felt something was wrong and took another look.

Obtain a 1-star resource treasure - spring water.

There is no suffix of fragment

"Someone directly exchanged the treasure of spring water for 500 units of food??"

After Richard realized this, he felt happy. This was purely an unexpected surprise!

Even an ordinary 1-star treasure is worth at least 2,000 units of meat in Richard's opinion.

Unexpectedly, the other party sold 500 units. Are you waiting for rice to be ready?

This unexpected gain made him think seriously.

"Next, maybe we can take advantage of the strong early demand from other lords and exchange prey for more good things"

"Now I have the treasure of spring water, and two more fragments.

"As long as I get another spring water fragment, I will have two spring water treasures in my hand, and the water problem of Twilight City will be solved."

This unexpected gain made Richard quite excited. After thinking about it, he asked the cook to call Karu.

Not long after, Karu hurriedly entered the hall.

"Good day, my lord, what are your orders?"

Richard smiled slightly, reached out and took out two resource treasures, Elaeagnus elata forest and spring water, and explained their functions.

After listening to this, Karu was so excited that he almost burst into tears.

"Is this the legendary gift from God?!"

"Gods above, you must be the son of God sent by the gods to save us!!"

"The City of Twilight will surely become a pearl in the desert under your leadership!"

10 acres of Elaeagnus angustifolia matures once a month.

This is of immeasurable value to Twilight City.

As an old man who has gone through countless ups and downs, Carew has rich experience.

He knew that hunting could bring good profits, but the problem was instability.

And it's fraught with danger.

In contrast, the income from farming is extremely reliable, and it is completely worth it even if it takes a long time to cultivate.

"You personally take people to the surrounding areas where Elaeagnus elegans is grown."

"Remember, the Twilight City will expand very fast in the future. The selected area cannot be too close, but it cannot be too far to avoid accidents that we cannot handle in time."

Karu nodded excitedly, and the wrinkles on his face seemed to come alive.

"As you wish, I will go down and make arrangements immediately!"

Not long after, the entire Twilight City was in a state of excitement because of the news delivered by Karu.

The great lord, under the blessing of the gods, received a gift from the gods - 10 acres of Elaeagnus elata forest.

And it’s a miracle plant that matures once a month!

This news boosted the morale of the residents who had just woken up, and they rushed to help Karp choose a suitable location.

Thanks to the efforts of many residents, five candidate locations were placed in front of Richard in less than an hour.

"Lord, these locations are flat and neither far nor close to the City of Twilight. They are all very suitable for placing Elaeagnus arborescens trees. Please make your decision."

Richard opened the rough map and compared it with the system map.

After a while, he pointed at one of the points on the rough map on the table - the lumberyard, and tapped it twice with his index finger.

"The Elaeagnus grove is placed here."

"This place is about 1.5 kilometers away from the Twilight City. The terrain is relatively flat, and the extremely rare desert bees are also nearby."

"Yes, my lord!"

Richard stood up and said, "Call all the residents, and we will plant the Elaeagnus arborescens."

Garp's wrinkled face relaxed a lot, as if the wrinkled paper had been smoothed out.

"They have been waiting for a long time!"

Richard took Garp out and found that everyone in the entire territory was there.

"Good day, Lord!"

"Lord."

Seeing him appear, the residents in front of him raised their chests and bowed.

Richard nodded, and, escorted by the mummies and scorpion warriors, walked straight towards the lumberyard.

After the residents saw the strong poisonous scorpion warrior, there was another heated discussion, and their awe for him rose again.

"That must be the newly recruited unit of the lord, it's too powerful"

"The scorpion tail is thicker than the arrows of any siege ballista I have ever seen."

"."

In the crisis-ridden desert, Richard serves as the master and sole ruler of the Twilight City.

The stronger he is, the safer they will undoubtedly be.

Therefore, the army in Richard's hands has been strengthened, and the residents are very happy.

Ten minutes later, the group arrived at the lumberyard.

At this time, the long-arm peon was cutting wood. When he saw Richard arriving, he immediately worked harder, as if he was fishing when his boss came to inspect.

Richard ignored these guys and walked through the lumberyard to the other side.

The terrain in this area is very flat with no obvious depressions or bulges, making it suitable for placing an Elaeagnus arborescens forest.

Moreover, Desert Bee is only ten minutes away from here, so it will be easy to transport it later.

"You guys wait here."

Richard walked forward alone for several hundred meters.

Then he slowly stopped under the gaze of everyone, bent down and buried the seeds of Elaeagnus angustifolia into the yellow sand.

He took out a pot of water from the system space and poured it on the sand.

The sand was soaked with water and immediately condensed into lumps, darkening in color.

After pouring a pot of water, Richard put the pot into the system space, turned around and walked towards the residents.

But the moment he took the first step.

Elaeagnus seeds take root and sprout at a speed hundreds of times faster than the video, and grow green leaves.

That touch of green became the starting point of the journey together. On the surrounding sand, dozens of buds sprouted at the same time.

In the shocked eyes of the residents, every time Richard took a step, a patch of green shoots appeared behind him.

This scene seems like a miracle from myths and legends.

At this moment, he is like a god with the power of life descending into the mortal world. Every step is pregnant with hope and the future.

The long yellow sand behind is covered by lush green.

Those seedlings of Elaeagnus angustifolia grow at an alarming speed. Under the influence of special forces, the yellow sand on the ground slowly condenses into blocks and turns into soil

When Richard returned to the logging camp, the 10 acres of Elaeagnus elata forest was already lush and green.

The residents looked at him with eyes full of heat and madness.

At this moment, it was as if he was the incarnation of a god.

Richard turned to look at the Elaeagnus jujube. At this time, the Elaeagnus jujube tree had grown to half a person's height.

And it is still growing at an extremely fast rate.

The miracle of life in the desert. (End of chapter)
