Chapter 484 North and South

It was already deep in autumn, and the night in the country of wind was rolling up the cold wind and sand, and the howling sounds like beasts roaring one after another.

In summer, it is so hot that on cool days, the desert at night is frozen to death.

The dry wind blew on the skin, and even the Sand Ninjas who were used to it felt very uncomfortable. The Konoha Ninjas who were still stuck in the Wind Kingdom were even more uncomfortable.

Every year when the wind and sand are blowing, men, women, young and old in the Sand Village will apply some moisturizing oil. Otherwise, the corners of your mouth will crack and you will feel uncomfortable when you eat.

Especially for the beauty-loving little girls, they will not neglect to take care of their skin.

The scorching sun in the country of Wind is still vicious during the day, which makes most of the female Sandun's skin look healthy in bronze, but there are also many beautiful girls who are naturally beautiful, have good skin and do not like sun marks.

Such an environment also provides many opportunities for the merchants in the Sand Village to make money, especially foreign merchants, who will most likely bring some affordable and cheap skin care products to sell. Although the unit price is not high, the demand is large and the profit is very generous.

Unfortunately, speculators who are expecting to make a big profit this year have miscalculated.

After the successful development of the South Coast, the prices of seafood in Sand Village plummeted, indirectly making some inflated necessities no longer so unattainable and luxurious goods that are rarely consumed once a few years. Yin Shiren can grit his teeth and bear it on the festive days of the New Year.

Especially the newly opened whaling and other industries, as well as related marine catches, provide a large amount of animal oil, or high-end skin care products used for cooking, even ambergris, whale oil for oil lamps, etc. The rare high-quality products in the past have gradually become popular in the Sand Village.

The civilians at the bottom still didn't feel it deeply, and the upper-class people in the village clearly felt the changes around them.

To be honest, even if you have money, you can't find a place to consume, especially in the Sand Hidden Village. In the past, due to the great pressure of war, war machinery represented by puppet technology developed rapidly, but the private economy was almost stagnant. Not to mention self-sufficiency, there was no decent handicraft industry. All activities had to be revolved around ninja services, such as Daimaru's mother who had run a laundry for more than ten years.

Now, Sand Village, which has improved its external environment, has begun to try to change its previous attitude of killing high pressure, becoming more open and compatible with different lifestyles.

Of course, no one in the entire Sand Village can understand this subtle transformation. Even Daimaru can only do some pushing hands from a high-level perspective to slightly relieve the pressure on most civilians in the village.

There is no way to talk about other things. Children who have been malnourished since childhood are too weak and cannot even pass the ninja school entrance exam.

But now, the situation has improved a lot. Gaara, who was walking home, looked happily at the side of the road that was not closed to welcome customers.

In the past, in the slums of sand, the wind and sand were slightly stronger and the sky was getting darker, and there were no people on the road. Every family was closed and there was nothing outside except the noisy and bustling winds through the streets and alleys.

A few minutes later, Gaara, who came to the door, knocked on the door gently. Without waiting for the guests to be welcomed, she opened the door with the key and walked in.

When I changed into household slippers and walked through the entrance hall, I saw Kankuro looking through the newspaper as if nothing had happened. There was a cup of hot tea on the coffee table in front of me.

I looked up and looked at Gaara who came back, but Kankuro's posture did not change.

"Come back? The food is still hot, there are cold drinks in the refrigerator..."

"Um!"

Nodding quietly, Gaara took out the dinner prepared for herself and sat at the dining table and ate it on her own.

I can still maintain a business attitude outside. After returning home, Temari was gone, and the way the two got along was quite strange.

It’s not like being unfamiliar. In fact, the relationship between the two is quite harmonious. They always feel very awkward when they get along with each other like ordinary family members.

Gaara, I, is not a talkative person, and the "home" puppet master who is wandering on the passing line of communication skills, and I don't know how to deal with my own brother.

When I first became the purpose of the Five Dynasties of Fengying, Gaara often lived in Fengying Home.

As a village’s “shadow”, it has a bit of a meaning of regarding the village as its home. The core of power in Konoha Village is called Naruto House. It basically follows the Sand Hidden Village regulated by Konoha Village, and naturally also calls the administrative center Fengying House.

After Gaara gained a little bit of foothold and had no need to eat and live in Fengying House, she would come back from time to time to gather with her brothers and sisters.

Although there was a speechless embarrassment, the two brothers seemed to be used to this way of getting along and were not very restrained.

Of course, at this time, Temari needs to be present at home from time to time.

I don’t know how long it took to get rid of the traces of the wind and sun on my face. The blonde elder sister, who had taken a small pot of plants that I don’t know what it was, walked out. Looking at its lush leaves, it seemed that they had just been watered.

"What's this time?"

Kankuro looked at Temari happily and placed the seedling potted plants on the terrace outside the window.

"Bottle Tree..."

"baffling!"

Kankuro makes an unknown nasal sound and no longer pays attention.

The day before yesterday, I stared at the green plant that was said to be called the traveling cannabis the day, and forgot to prepare dinner, which made the three siblings hungry for a long time.

Five days ago, I brought back two pots of spherical flower plants with great smell... What is the name "Heather".

The strange smell in the room has not yet dissipated.

"What's strange?"

Temari said indifferently,

"The bottle tree has strong water storage capacity, the traveler canna absorbs water and solidifies sand, the heather is evergreen all year round, has strong vitality, is easy to survive, and will be of great use in the future..."

The above three plants are all selected by Damaru after using wood escape to ripen, which are similar to the plants of the same name in his previous life. In addition, the wind-proof, nitrogen-fixing and alkali-resistant black pine, Damaru intends to improve the vicinity of Awaji Village into a slightly livable savanna.

With this goal, we will use several suitable plants to establish a preliminary biome on the South Coast, and then find other ways to extend northward in the oasis pattern until a series of land transit stations leading to Sand Village are established.

When the time is ripe, see if Daming can pay for money and establish a railway line that runs through the north and south.

Although it is a bit difficult, you have to try it.

Relying on the transport of luxury goods by air combat troops to make small profits is a small fight. Only railway lines with large loads and high efficiency can support the long-distance transportation of bulk goods, allowing Sand Village and the South Coast to truly connect into a whole.
