"lottery."
Kant opened his mouth slightly, his eyes filled with anticipation.
The things that can be obtained by the system lottery are much better than the rewards obtained by temporary tasks.
The treasure chest opens.
Colorful rays of light appear.
[Ding... You got the "props package"]
[You open the props package and find that there is a lush "date palm forest" inside.]
[Acquisition: "Date Palm Forest" × 2 mu (adult trees)]
In the system dialog box, a card appears.
Above is a bird's-eye view of a forest, which grows lushly on the sandy soil. Among the branches and leaves, you can vaguely see clusters of dates hanging under the leaves, which are obviously mature and ready to be harvested at any time.
date palm.
The most practical desert tree species, Kant is no stranger to this.
Because when I came to the Nalun Desert, there was a temporary task reward, which was 20 date palm trees.
But it does not reach the level of horror of the date palm trees on 2 acres of land!
"Why is there such a reward?"
With Kant's calm heart, he felt dumbfounded at this moment.
The date palms on 2 mu of land seem to be easy to plant, but the current sentry oasis only has 7.5 mu of sandy land, and all of them have been planted with barley. Is there any free space to continue planting these date palms
This is simply a temporarily useless reward for him.
[Ding... system prompt]
[The props obtained in the lottery will be fully realized based on cards.]
As if aware of Kant's doubts, a system dialog box popped up on the retina.
This made him frown even more.
"Fully materialized?"
Kant pondered over this term repeatedly. After all, the hints given by the system were not groundless.
With a slight movement of his mind, the card he just obtained reappeared on his retina.
The date palm trees on the 2-acre land cannot be fully displayed on this small card, but only with the outline of overlooking, covering the whole forest, including the sandy land where the date palm trees are planted.
Seeing this, Kant's heart beat suddenly.
Combined with the special reminder given by the system, he had some realization in his mind: "Could it be..."
Without hesitation, he walked directly towards the northern part of the sentry oasis, which is the agricultural area of "Dherim", where the previous 20 date palm trees happened to be planted.
Based on cards, fully realized.
If this sentence is consistent with what Kant guessed, then he will usher in a new spring.
Ushered in a start no less than when he obtained the governing hall and actually established "Dherim"!
"This is it."
Kant quickly came to the north side of the sentry oasis.
The crude canal network has been dug, and the spring water flows in it, moistening the fields with a lot of sand, bringing precious fresh water resources to this barren sandy land.
7.5 mu of land, the total canal is divided into 14 farmlands.
After all, this is a desert area, even if it is an oasis, the soil is mostly sandy land.
The purpose of digging so many canals is to ensure irrigation. As long as the wheat seedlings can emerge, it means that the irrigation canals pre-divided by Kant and the farmers are effective.
But now, Kant looked at the two rows of date palm trees.
The 20 date palm trees are neat and rooted at the junction of the oasis and the desert. The branches and leaves are luxuriant, lush, with attractive emerald green, which adds a bit of color to the monotonous yellow-orange environment.
Kant hesitated.
But he still swallowed and took a deep breath: "System, can you plant date palm trees?"
"Yes." The system replied.
And Kant's eyes flashed brightly, and his thoughts directly communicated with the cards in his mind.
A mysterious aura descended instantly, and an immeasurable data link appeared in the depths of Kant's eyes, and then spread out, turning into a whirlwind and rushing towards the desert in front of him, covering an area of exactly 2 mu of land.
Quickly, but in seconds.
The data link began to fade, but what appeared in front of Kant was a tall and straight forest.
It is a grove of date palms!
"Sure enough."
Kant swallowed, and clenched his hands with excitement.
He moved his eyes down, scanned the tall and straight tree trunks, and saw that the bottom of this date palm grove was not a layer of soft yellow-orange sand, but a yellowish-brown, hardened sandy land!
Change the world.
This is the only word in Kant's mind that can describe his current shock.
That is, now, Kant finally realized the power of the system.
It really is a world change.
Vigorously replace this layer of sand with sandy soil that can be planted.
This kind of power has gone beyond the comprehension of ordinary people, even a miracle can be justified, and this is precisely a miracle, a sandy land that can only be created by the mysterious mighty power of the gods!
"This is my golden finger."
Kant forcibly calmed his inner fluctuations, trying to calm himself down.
The game system is his.
This power is also his.
He has no reason to be inexplicably excited because of this, as long as he calms down, all of this will become normal.
Kant looked at the densely packed date palm trees in front of him, and couldn't help sighing, "It's really spectacular."
Lush date palms are planted in rows.
This was planned in advance and had been planted as a young tree, so it now looks quite neat.
On the straight and straight trunk, under the slender leaves of the palm family, clusters of full purple-red dates are hanging down in clusters, which means that they are ripe and ready to be picked.
They are date palms in the fruit ripening period.
At a glance, the 7-meter-high date palm trees completely cover the desert to the north.
Kant didn't even know how many date palms there were in 2 mu of land.
[Ding... system prompt]
[50 date palm trees are planted in 1 mu of land, and there are currently 100 date palm trees in 2 mu of land.]
The system also pops up a dialog box to answer the difficult questions for Kant.
"Very good, really good."
For such a considerate system, Kant also smiled brilliantly.
With so many date palm trees, the current food problem has been completely solved. Even if his troops eat dates for every meal and drink the spring water of the oasis, they can last at least half a year.
With careful irrigation and maintenance, after half a year, a new batch of dates will bear fruit again.
But now, Kant finally understood why in the Middle East deserts of the earth, those desert peoples planted very few crops, but rather planted quite a lot of date palms.
This kind of dates, known as desert bread, is equal to staple food such as barley and rice in the hearts of desert peoples!
Now.
Kant estimated that calling on everyone to pick dates would fill the entire storage room to the brim.
Because these 100 date palm trees are equal to the total planting amount of a village, which can supply at least 300 people for several months and last until the next fruiting time.
Although it is half a year, in fact, as long as these coconuts are picked, they will continue to bear fruit quickly.
The time concept of half a year means that the coconut fruit is ripe again and can be eaten!
This kind of tree that grows in the desert climate is not disturbed by the four seasons, bears fruit all year round, and is supplied all year round. Compared with those fruit trees that live in plains and mountains and are affected by the climate, they have great advantages.
This is why it becomes an alternative crop.
"However, these date palm groves are definitely more than just providing food."
Kant's tongue licked his lips slightly.
Kant, who came from the earth in his previous life, of course knew that once there are a lot of trees in the oasis, it means that the oasis has matured and can form its own ecological chain.
The photosynthesis of the trees, as well as the evaporation of water, can keep the temperature of the oasis locked.
It's not too hot during the day and not too cold at night.
Trees can continue to be cultivated to plant more drought-resistant crops. As long as irrigation and fertilization are ensured, it doesn't matter to plant some vegetables and shrub fruits, and this is the planting method invented by the desert peoples.
You can even keep some small animals, such as chicken breeds, sheep breeds suitable for desert survival, or desert horses.
"The emergence of this date palm grove has really put the village on the right track."
Kant sighed, but he was still excited.
Produced by the system, it really is a high-quality product, and there will be no defective products at all!
And considering that he still has 1 point of honor, he can continue to draw the lottery, Kant's eyes are shining.
He can't wait.
"System, draw again!"
