If only a few Refugees sought shelter, the Zhao Family Village would certainly offer generous assistance. However, as you mentioned, the situation involves a vast number of Refugees. Zhao An sincerely stated:
"Your words guide the flow of benefits and burdens, and we have no objections; indeed, we share this desire. Yet, when it comes to rescuing the Refugees, I fear we may find it difficult to commit."
Yun Xiao Yi understood that Zhao An was a benevolent gentleman who did not judge the wandering souls with a narrow perspective, but he surely faced insurmountable obstacles.
"Please feel free to speak openly about any difficulties; there is no need for hesitation."
Zhao An took a deep breath and slowly replied:
"Esteemed Guest, there are indeed many barriers that need to be overcome. The first concerns food supply. The Zhao Family Village can barely sustain itself at present; if we recklessly embark on extensive relief efforts, our capabilities may be overwhelmed."
Upon hearing this candid admission, Yun Xiao Yi nodded gently in agreement. It was reasonable; he encouraged Zhao An to continue.
Zhao An nodded again and continued:
"Next is the issue of water quality. Fortunately, thanks to your generous donations, this problem has been alleviated. Furthermore, regarding housing arrangements, we will do our utmost to repurpose existing dwellings to accommodate the Refugees. Given the current number of houses in our village, we can probably house at most around a thousand people."
"As for sanitation, with the help of the Noble Person's miraculous dairy products and medicines, that should not pose a challenge either. However, maintaining order is another issue; areas with large populations are prone to conflicts."
Zhao An nearly enumerated all potential obstacles, leaving Yun Xiao Yi astonished by the complexity of these issues. It became clear why past dynasties were reluctant to undertake large-scale resettlement of refugees during disasters.
Indeed, it was a thorny problem! Moreover, even if they succeeded, they might not receive the praise they deserved; and with a slight misstep, chaos could easily ensue due to overcrowding and the instigation of certain ambitious individuals.
Yet it was precisely because of these difficulties that the value of this endeavor shone through; when no one else was willing to step up, courage was needed to take on such responsibilities.
Thus, Yun Xiao Yi patted Zhao An on the shoulder in encouragement:
I have noted these issues and will do my utmost to help resolve them properly. Furthermore, I do not expect you to immediately accept all the Wanderers; rather, I advocate for a step-by-step approach, progressing gradually.
Such words not only assuaged the concerns within Zhao Anxin but also strengthened their resolve to face difficulties together. On one hand, we aid the refugees; on the other, we address problems as they arise. Remember, I will always be your strongest support. Any challenges you face can be discussed with me at any time.
With Yun Xiao Yi's firm promise, Zhao Anxin's worries dissipated, and he felt a sense of ease. After some deep contemplation, he thought to himself, if these tasks are trivial, why should they be assigned to him specifically? Since the immortal chose to entrust such an important responsibility to him, it must mean that he was recognized in some way. If he could excel in this task, surely the immortal would not be stingy in rewarding him.
With this thought in mind, Zhao Anxin felt a surge of excitement and patted his chest, saying, "Rest assured, I will carry out all your instructions without fail."
Yun Xiao Yi nodded in satisfaction and gave him an encouraging look filled with trust. Next, Yun Xiao Yi led Zhao An to the backyard with all the livestock he had brought over. The backyard was a spacious open area covering nearly two thousand square meters.
Yun Xiao Yi briefly planned out this area, dividing it into sections for crop cultivation and livestock raising. Since most plants require soil for growth and the villa's backyard was originally paved with sturdy gneiss tiles, Yun Xiao Yi intended to make some improvements. He took out two gleaming iron hammers from his backpack and wielded them with both hands like a professional miner. He had become quite adept at extracting iron ore using this method.
He swung his arms vigorously, letting the sharp hammer strike repeatedly against the exceptionally hard Gneiss stones. The sound of each impact resonated like music, every blow ringing out loud and clear. The hammer's digging effect was remarkable; even the extremely tough Gneiss seemed as soft as tofu under its assault. In just a few seconds, a massive Gneiss boulder was shattered into pieces, scattering into smaller stones that only he could see. These small rocks floated in the air, trembling slightly.
He stored these Blocks in his backpack and replaced them with soil Blocks to fill the gaps. After about ten minutes, all the foundations in the crop planting area had been replaced with nutrient-rich soil. As for the livestock area, it remained unchanged.
This arrangement was made because the creatures in the game had several unique traits: first, the animals here did not need to eat to survive. Although some sheep and similar creatures would nibble on the grass roots in the soil, they would not die from a lack of food or grass roots, nor would they undergo any status changes due to this. Similarly, other types of animals were no different. Even if they were never given any food from a young age, they would still grow and develop healthily according to their natural progression.
