Vientiane Throne of Civilization

Chapter 1714 Implementation Arrangements
Shi Lei acted quickly. After a quick look around, he arranged a dormitory for them and had the soldiers take them down to rest.

As for specific inquiries, we'll talk about them when we have time. As the commander-in-chief here, he's quite busy with his daily work.

After Ali and Tata left, Jie Liancheng asked a question out of curiosity...

"So, do you have any talented people?"

Shi Lei nodded.

"There is one, that is Tata, with three stars in endurance. Although he is not outstanding, he is still considered an excellent talent."

"He also has a good talent, called 'Desert Guide'. He is very familiar with the desert. With a little training, taking him along on the next mission should be a great help."

"Besides that, there's another one named Ali."

As Shi Lei spoke, he flipped through the registration forms he had completed.

"Although all five of his attributes are at two stars, he has a great talent called 'Sand Defense Man.' He has a greater advantage in sand defense compared to ordinary people, so I plan to assign him to the sand defense department."

The desert control department is a new department established this year by their Great Zhou Dynasty in response to the desert environment here.

After all, this is a task that will obviously take three to five years to complete.

In this way, a special department was set up for them, and the people from the Greenery and Environmental Protection Bureau who came before have all been transferred to the sand prevention department.

"As for the rest of the people, there's nothing special about them judging from the panel."

At this point, Shi Lei paused.

"Of course, they are all desert people. Compared to us, they are definitely more adapted to the desert climate and have more relevant experience, so I plan to arrange for them to work here."

Clearly, in just a short while, Shi Lei had already sorted out his thoughts.

"When I checked the panel just now, I asked a couple of questions. Some of the people had experience in raising and caring for camels. Since we're going to breed camels anyway, we can just assign them to take care of the camels."

"The other group of people were assigned to the sand control department, just like Ali, to assist in sand control work."

The arrangements were finalized early the next morning.

Ali and Tata were still somewhat dazed when they received the news.

Although they had only stayed here for one night, and the total time was probably less than half a day, this experience felt like a dream.

This was something that the desert people, whose daily lives were originally close to those of the tribal era, could never have imagined.

With this kind of life, they'd be willing to be slaves to the Great Zhou!
At this point, Ali and Tata naturally had no complaints about the work arrangements made by their superiors.

As for camel feeding, we fenced off a piece of land for them to raise camels for now.

The department facing the greatest workload right now is the desertification control department.

By the time Ali and his fellow desert dwellers arrived to report for duty, the daily work of the desertification control department had already begun.

Right now, the wood elves from the sand control department are studying the seeds and saplings they brought back yesterday.

Seeing this, Ali felt more confident.

He still has an advantage, at least in terms of experience in cultivating these desert plants.

However, just as he was thinking this, he saw one of the wood elves raise its hand...

[Wild Growth!] In an instant, fresh branches sprouted from it, and in just a few blinks of an eye, a shrub with many branches, about half a person tall, appeared before everyone's eyes.

Ali froze on the spot. He subconsciously rubbed his eyes, wondering if it was just too hot during the day and that he was hallucinating.

However, the reality before him left him no choice but to believe it.

"How...how did they do that?"

Hearing the commotion, the wood elves turned around and looked over. After noticing Ali and the others standing there dumbfounded, the wood elf who was the head of the sand control department waved to them briskly.

"Don't just stand there, come over here right now."

Faced with this entirely new world, the desert people, whose brains have been subjected to continuous shocks since yesterday, are not only not relieved, but their situation has become even more serious, and their brains are no longer able to function at all.

Fortunately, they can still understand what is being said.

Seeing the desert people approaching, the minister didn't waste any words and directly stated, "From now on, these desert plants will be your responsibility."

This left Ali even more bewildered.

From Ali's perspective, the wood elves could simply wave their hands and these plants would grow. Was there any need for them in all of this?
Having probably discerned Ali's intentions, the minister offered a brief explanation...

"We can only accelerate the growth of the plants, but they still need someone to take care of them on a daily basis."

The minister paused at this point.

"Of course, as the scale grows, your small team will definitely be too busy. I'll assign a team to learn how to care for these desert plants on a daily basis."

Regardless of Ali's reaction, the minister quickly made arrangements.

There was absolutely no intention to explain much to Ali and the others.

In the minister's view, Ali and his group were like cavemen who had suddenly arrived in modern society; there were too many things they couldn't understand.

If we were to explain it to them one by one, it would take days and nights to finish. They don't have that kind of time right now.

So now the main message is, 'You don't need to know that much, just listen to me and get the job done.'

Anyway, once you stay here for a few months and get used to life here, you'll basically understand most things.

At this point, they are only conducting small-scale trial plantings of the newly collected desert plants to see how they will grow.

After figuring it out, we started planning to expand the planting area.

The work of the sand control department here is undoubtedly busy.

However, the addition of desert plants and later grassland plants has gradually shown some effectiveness in their sand control efforts.

At least after the fragments of the world were pieced together, the situation in the buffer zone that was formed gradually stabilized, and it was no longer like before, where it was almost one-sidedly and continuously turning into sand.

During this period, the wood elves undoubtedly made the greatest contribution.

After all, if things proceeded at the normal pace, the sand-fixing plants would have only just been planted, and it would take at least several more years to stabilize or even improve the desertification problem.

However, the existence of the wood elves greatly increases the growth rate of plants and significantly improves the efficiency of sand prevention and control!
