Developing the Northwest: I built a city in the Gobi Desert

A few minutes later,

Xu Hao stopped in front of several Haloxylon trees.

It is common sense that there must be water under the green plants.

And this well must be used frequently so it cannot be too far away from the future shelter.

In addition, the shelter should be selected in a place sheltered from the wind without quicksand or red willow trees. Undoubtedly, the flat land with a slightly higher windward terrain is the best choice.

And here is less than fifty meters away from that flat place, the distance is perfect.

In the future, if you have the ability to build an earthen wall around it, it will be a proper Northwest farmyard.

"Fuck!"

After thinking about it, Xu Hao didn't hesitate anymore, and immediately rolled up his sleeves and dug up the Haloxylon tree.

Although I haven't specialized in wilderness survival before, I still know some common sense, especially in the desert, it is no longer suitable for work after eleven o'clock.

As for drilling wells?

As a doctoral student specializing in the restoration of ancient buildings on earth, this kind of life is not difficult for him at all.

After all, ancient buildings include too many things, including the structure and construction of some ancient wells. As long as the method is proper, it is not a problem to get some labor-saving tools to pump water within a day.

Haishi, Tianchen Cultural Headquarters Building,

meeting room,

Xu Chen and the directors of the company were staring closely at the big screen, which displayed the pictures of the respective areas of the ten challengers.

"Mr. Xu, Xu Hao's luck was a little bit bad. He chose the worst oasis, and he probably won't last long!"

When Wang Wu, director of the marketing department, saw Xu Hao digging up the Haloxylon tree, he couldn't help but smiled wryly.

In his opinion,

Xu Hao probably was ready to withdraw from the challenge before he cut down trees and built a shelter immediately.

Now the symbolic digging is just to not lose face and lose too much.

"Him? I never thought he could last for more than three days, but what about the other players? Don't let the other players quit the game after a few days,"

Xu Chen glanced at the information that the staff had just delivered, and rubbed his brows in distress.

It is normal for one or two players to withdraw, but if all the players withdraw, then there is something wrong with the organizer.

"Others? Mr. Xu, the other contestants should be fine!"

Wang Wu was puzzled.

"Look, according to the information just received, there may be a continuous heavy rainfall in the northwest of Longguo in the next fourteen days, and it will last for a long time! It just happens to be within our challenge area."

"It's going to rain continuously?"

Wang Wu was taken aback.

In recent years, the climate in the Northwest has indeed been much wetter than in ten thousand years, but this kind of continuous rain is still extremely rare.

But after thinking about it, Wang Wu felt nothing.

"Mr. Xu, the challengers this time basically brought tarps and sleeping bags. The shelters they built should be able to block the continuous rain this time."

"It's okay to keep out the rain, but what about the temperature? It's very likely that the temperature will drop below zero at night after it rains for several days in a row in the desert, and once it rains, the rain will extinguish the wood, and the fire will not be easy to start!"

Xu Chen leaned back on the chair.

This is what worries him the most.

Because the challenge is in the desert, these challengers wear very thin clothes. Once the body loses temperature, the consequences will be disastrous.

"this"

Wang Wu became a lot more dignified when he heard this.

"Mr. Xu, what should we do now? The challenge has already begun. It's unrealistic to escape this rainy day."

"In this way, you will ask the staff to inform these players later, tell them the weather conditions in the next fourteen days, let them prepare early, and count as much dry firewood as they can store!"

After a long time, Xu Chen sighed.

Right now, there seems to be no good solution. I just hope that these wilderness survival masters can have their own means of heating.

"Okay, I'll notify you right now!"

"Wait, is that voting channel ready?"

Just when Wang Wu turned to leave, Xu Chen suddenly thought of something and asked again.

It turned out that in order to create a gimmick and attract people for this wilderness survival, Tianchen Culture specially organized an online voting event.

Each citizen's ID number can vote for one of his favorite contestants.

If the contestant you voted for can really succeed in the 100-day challenge in the desert, Tianchen Culture will randomly select ten lucky viewers from these voters,

Each of these ten lucky viewers will receive a cheering prize of RMB 500,000.

"President Xu, you're ready!"

Wang Wu nodded.

"That's good, the voting channel will be officially opened at 12:00 noon!"

"Um!"

The so-called layman watches the excitement, while the insider watches the way,

at eleven o'clock,

The number of viewers in Kuaijiu's official live broadcast room has reached 6 million, setting a new record for wilderness survival challenge programs.

At this time, there were not many voices talking about Xu Hao on the public screen, but they kept talking about other players' shelters.

Because in their opinion, Xu Hao is already broken, and someone who doesn't even build a shelter is not worthy of attention at all. It is estimated that the live broadcast will be broadcast tonight and tomorrow he will officially announce his withdrawal from the competition.

"Master Pei, is this a shelter like a triangular hut?"

"At first glance, it should be A-shaped! And this time, all the challengers should build A-shaped shelters. The square can't withstand the wind and sand in the Tengli Desert."

"But isn't his progress a little slow?"

"Hehe, there is no way, who made Master Pei and Populus euphratica exhausted? What species is Populus euphratica? Not a lot!

Especially for Matt, the basic triangular frame has been set up, as long as the tarps are laid to fix the four corners, the shelter will be formed! "

"If you consume Populus euphratica, you will consume Populus euphratica. I'm not worried about Mr. Pei. With Mr. Pei's strength, he can last for a few days even if he doesn't have a shelter."

"That's right, don't you guys see that Mr. Pei has already harvested a lot when he cut down trees?"

"Huh? What did he gain?"

"I harvested a hedgehog and a few desert scorpions, at least I have rations for tomorrow."

"So strong? Master Pei is indeed Master Pei!"

"That must!"

When there were more and more comments on the public screen, a colorful pop-up window instantly ignited the atmosphere of the audience in the live broadcast room.

"What? The official voting channel is open?"

"Then what are you waiting for! Just close your eyes and cast."

The viewers in the live broadcast room of the voting event had known for a long time that even if they guessed the winner of the challenge, they would be randomly selected, but in their eyes, this event was much more reliable than a lottery.

At least real!

"Who are you going to vote for?"

"That goes without saying! Of course, choose one of Mr. Pei, Mr. De and Matt. As for the others, I'll leave it to you!"

"Why? So sure?"

"no way!"

"If I want to say that you don't underestimate any other players except for that Xu Hao, let's take Zhu Qiang, who seems to be the weakest, as an example, his shelter is about to take shape in just one morning, and he is now tying waterproofing to the shelter. Boo, what's wrong?"
