Day by day in the infinite game

Chapter 213 213. Travel in the Desert ([-])
The discovery of precious underground water sources has brought a lot of convenience to the tree planting army.

Tang Qinqin has completed more than half of his current mission goals, with a survival rate of 95%.

That 5% was because she was afraid of scaring the villagers, so she quietly transplanted it into the accompanying space. Anyway, this game task is not limited to this scene. In another place, the saplings cultivated in the accompanying space become ready-made sand prevention Forest.

During the tree planting process, we encountered several sandstorms, but these times, the experienced players have learned countermeasures and are no longer afraid of these natural weather phenomena.

Seeing the wind and sand filling the sky, and the sand wall moving in the distance, without saying a word, I found a cover, covered my mouth and nose, and lay down. My movements were even more skillful than those of the villagers who had experienced them for half a lifetime.

Everything went smoothly, and everything was moving in the direction everyone expected.

The villagers of Huyang Village are very grateful and appreciate this group of young people who are not afraid of hardship and work hard.

When they first arrived, the villagers thought they were just another group of tourists.

When they were about to leave, the villagers felt reluctant to leave.

With the efforts of this group of young people, the sand control forest has expanded its forest area. The survival rate of the saplings they planted is extremely high. They quickly took root and grew lush.

All kinds of garbage that were originally very annoying to dance with the yellow sand have disappeared because of the efforts of this group of young people.

What they plant is not just trees, they plant green and hope.

Preventing and controlling desertification and planting trees are our efforts to make up for the mistakes of indiscriminate deforestation and wanton destruction of forest vegetation due to greed and short-sightedness, which led to the worsening of desertification of the natural environment.

As the saying goes: It takes ten years to grow trees and a hundred years to cultivate people.

It takes a long time for a small tree to grow up, and in desert areas with harsh living environments, its growth process will only be more difficult, and it is extremely difficult to grow into a mature seedling.

Desertification prevention and control, soil and water conservation, and desert greening should not only be the responsibility of generations of people who fix borders and control desertification, but also the common responsibility of each of us.

After the game mission goal is achieved, the players bid farewell to the enthusiastic villagers of Populus euphratica Village and set off to the next scene.

The game scene this time is a vast and boundless salt-alkali land.

We've all heard the name Saline Land.It is also known that it is a type of soil that neither farmers nor crops are interested in.

Saline-alkali land is a type of salt accumulation, which means that the salt contained in the soil affects the normal growth of crops, and plants in severe saline-alkali soil areas can hardly survive.

There are tens of millions of hectares of saline-alkali land in my country, and how to "turn waste into treasure" and make rational use of precious land resources has always been a key research work of relevant state departments.

There are not few tree species suitable for planting in saline-alkali land. The common ones are wolfberry, populus euphratica, sandy date, poplar, Haloxylon, arborvitae, as well as Zhumei crabapple, ailanthus, tamarisk and so on.

Planting these saline-adapted trees can not only improve the soil, but also increase farmers' income.

……

Hongxing Village has always been a village where people live in poverty and are poor.

The foundation of farmers is land. With land and diligent sowing, there will always be food.

The area of ​​Hongxing Village is not small, and the land area per capita is enough to provide enough food and clothing for a family in other areas.

But even so, almost every family in the village did not have enough to eat, their faces were sallow and their muscles were thin, and the whole village was in poverty.

Just because the area where Hongxing Village is located is covered with saline-alkali land, and due to climate and other reasons, it is difficult for ordinary crops to grow on this land, let alone the yield.

With the development of the times, social progress, technological changes, and the implementation of new policies, the villagers of Hongxing Village began to change their strategies and tried to learn to plant various economic crops and trees that are suitable for the local environment.

I didn't have much hope at first, but it gave the villagers a big surprise during the harvest season.

This once barren land, where nothing could be grown, has now begun to become one of the important producing areas for cash crops such as wolfberry. As the soil slowly improves, the types of crops that can be grown increase, and the villagers begin to make a living in a real sense. The road to escape poverty and become rich.

Hongxing Village has now become a rising and dazzling "red star" and a model village for nearby areas.

The game mission for players here is naturally not to "add icing on the cake". The new round of side missions is [Find ranger Lao Hu; plant 6000 suitable trees in severely saline-alkali areas, with a survival rate of not less than 85%. ]
Forest ranger Lao Hu was later a villager in Hongxing Village. When he was young, he responded to the country's call and came to the western region to reclaim wasteland and plant trees. He worked hard for most of his life. Later, he settled in Hongxing Village and took root.

He has a lot of experience in managing saline-alkali lands, and this is also a valuable experience that he has accumulated over decades and gained little by little.

When he first came here, the forest farm here was just a few sparse trees, and they were still stunted, as if they were bald.With no experience, he just relied on the spirit of not being afraid of hardships, tiredness, and perseverance to face difficulties. He crossed the river by feeling the stones all the way and turned this place into a real forest. The trees are growing well, lush and full of vitality. It is his contribution. A lifetime of painstaking efforts.

When the players found Lao Hu, he was tending his sheep leisurely.

In recent years, he has planted high-quality forage in saline-alkali land. Starting from one sheep, he has gradually grown to the size of a flock now. He has provided new ideas for generating income in Hongxing Village and has also received multiple personal commendations.

Facing such an admirable senior, even the bluffing old Tian didn't dare to speak loudly, and stood respectfully with his hands down, posing as a well-behaved junior.

"Master Hu! Hello..." Dong Mingzhe, as the spokesperson of the players, consciously stepped forward to communicate.

"What are you here for?" Old Hu Xu has been exposed to wind, sun and rain for a long time. He looks very thin, but he looks very energetic.Especially that look in his eyes, most people would not dare to look at him.

"Are you also here for the forest?" Lao Hu asked in a bad tone.

Recently, for some reason, many people have started to get interested in this forest land. Several groups of people have come to negotiate with Lao Hu and want to buy forest trees from him. To put it bluntly, they just give him money, and they cut down the trees and transport them. Walk.

Not to mention that this forest was the result of his decades of hard work, but to talk about the important role of this forest, he would not be able to nod his head in agreement.

This forest is not only a benchmark for saline-alkali land management, but also an important "contributor" to soil and water conservation and improvement of the natural environment in the region. It has formed a relatively complete forest ecology and has been included in the country's key protected forest areas in the western part of the country.

He had explained it in a good-natured manner at first, but then one after another people came to bother him about this issue. He got annoyed and scolded some of them and left.

What a bunch of short-sighted bastards!
