Astral Ant Tribe

Long Bai was very familiar with the various trading routines of the Watase Flame Spider Caravan, and he used them on Luo Li.

Luo Li is a qualified businessman who refuses to give in.

After arguing for a long time, the kettle made of ice and fire was finally sold for 8,200 rough stones.

8,000 rough stones was the bottom line for Luo Ji, and he would not give any more.

The other 200 rough stones were Luo Li's appreciation for Long Bai's ability to fight with him for two hundred rounds.

"Are your rough stones calculated together?"

Luo Li asked.

Long Bai: "Let's calculate together! Our harvest will be divided equally."

"Even. Even."

Mo Lan agreed.

——The cunning little ant king deceives others about the God-given seed of the little mantis~

Luo Li consciously saw through it, but did not say anything about it.

Luo Li asked: "What types of force food need to be purchased? Long Bai, you are more familiar with the goods on my back than I am, so I won't introduce them in detail."

Long Bai: "20 green torreya seeds are produced from the territory of the mountain master-level mantis warrior; 20 stone chestnuts are produced from the territory of the mountain master-level horned locust; 100 blood rice seeds are produced from the territory of any mountain master-level ant king... "

Long Bai reported the names of 36 kinds of force food in one breath, and required that they must be produced in the mountain master-level Zerg territory.

Finally, he said: "These add up to one portion, with a total price of 1,000 rough stones. Mo Lan and I need 4 copies."

Luo Li: "..."

Luo Ji: "Long Bai, please slow down. You spoke too fast and I didn't remember everything. Let's start over and count them one by one. There are 20 torreya seeds, right?"

"Mountain Lord-level mantis warrior territory output!" Long Bai emphasized.

Luo Ji: "60 rough stones."

With his mind, Luo Ji controlled the spider silk that bound the luggage on his back to untie it, and like dexterous tentacles, he quickly moved it around. He first took out a large empty spider silk bag, spread it flat on the ground, and then pulled out a spider full of goods. Open the silk bag, separate out 20 green torreya seeds and arrange them.

Luo Ji: "20 stone chestnuts, right?"

Long Bai: "The output of the Mountain Lord-level horned locust territory."

Not much to say about Luo Chen, just control the spider silk to rummage, pick up the goods, and place them neatly...

…

Luo Ji was meticulous in his work. He took out all the 36 kinds of force food reported by Long Bai, laid them out, quoted the price, and finally added up the total price.

Luo Li: "A total of 1,117 rough stones. Long Bai, you calculated wrong on purpose, right?"

Long Bai: "My calculation is correct. What I mean is, after the discount, it is calculated as an integer of 1,000 rough stones."

"Impossible!" Luo Li flatly refused.

Long Bai said quietly: "Luo Li, I remember the purchase price of these force foods, and I'll help you calculate them. Don't worry, the profits are huge."

Luo Li: "..."

You little cutie even plotted against me.

Luo Qi was angry.

"Long Bai, if I had known this would happen, I should not have allowed you to participate in the caravan trade."

"Luo Li, it hurts my heart so much if you say that."

"This is the Continent of Ten Thousand Kingdoms..."

Luo Li only said half a sentence before asking: "How many copies do you plan to buy?"

"Four copies, 4,000 rough stones."

Long Bai: "It costs 8,200 raw stones to make a kettle of ice and fire, and 1,000 raw stones for fruit orchid seeds. The total price of the goods we sell is 9,200 raw stones. Purchase four such force foods, and the balance is 5,200 raw stones."

"Last year, the Zeqi Spider King took you to give me 100 raw stones worth of force food on credit. With interest, you should repay 110 raw stones. The balance is 5090 raw stones."

"When we left the year before last, you gave me 5 black brome grains, worth 2 rough stones... I won't return this!"

It was given to you, and I never wanted you to return it.

Luo Li: "Okay... I'm very touched that you remember it."

5090 rough stones can fit into 5 big pockets. Long Bai is too small to move, and Mo Lan has to make 5 trips to move it back to his territory.

Next year's transaction will require a lot of effort to move here.

Long Bai explained his settlement plan and said: "Luo Li, you give us another 90 rough stones, and the remaining 5,000 rough stones will be kept with you. You can deposit them for one year without calculating interest. Next year, you can settle the account with the same five portions of force food." .”

"I understand what you mean! Smart little ant king."

Under the control of Luo Ji's mind, a spider silk swayed and took away the 100 juniper seeds that were previously quoted for 50 rough stones.

"This is more appropriate."

Luo Li stared at Long Bai calmly.

Long Bai knew that Luo Li would never give in when doing business. He reluctantly nodded his tentacles to express his approval and couldn't help complaining:

"Luo Li, you won't have any friends if you do this."

Luo Li calmly replied: "Business is business, friends are friends."

Luo Ji was very satisfied with Long Bai's concession. He waved his spider silk, took out 90 rough stones, put them separately in a small spider silk bag, and said proactively:

"I'll give you a few more spider silk bags. I'll use them when the territory produces more in the future."

"You are still in need of high-quality planting, right? I'll give you a few more seeds to use as life seeds. Long Bai, what do you want?"

"Orchid grass!" Mo Lan answered quickly.

Luo Chenwei: "Orchids are not an ideal choice for life."

Long Bai: "Mo Lan likes orchids. Luo Qiao, help her collect orchid seeds. We will pay her."

Luo Ji was silent for a while and asked: "What kind of variety do you need?"

Long Bai: "There are no restrictions on varieties for the time being. Luo Qiu, when you go to a place suitable for orchids to grow, entrust the local Zerg warriors to help collect the seeds. This is just a matter of a few words for the caravan, right?"

"Isn't it troublesome to move it? You need to be paid!"

Luo Qiu: "Based on the variety, we collect at least 10 seeds for each variety and then charge you 20 rough stones. How about that?"

Mo Lan jumped up and down, cheering and agreed: "Yes! Yes!"

"Okay. I've written it down."

Luo Li then asked: "Long Bai, what about you?"

Long Bai: "I want 20 seeds each of green torreya, king fir, golden pine, silver fir, snake apricot, black emperor peach, red tangerine, blood orange..."

Long Bai immediately named 15 of the mainland’s top species.

These are cultivated by large tribes after countless generations of insects, and they involve the interests of the tribal groups. The seeds are not sold to the outside world and are strictly prohibited from being released to the outside world.

But Long Bai also knew that the caravan had a way to get it, and Luo Li occasionally had it on his body.

When caravans sell or give away these plant seeds, they usually issue a stern warning: [It can only be used for planting, not for cultivation and breeding, let alone spreading]

Life-seed plants produce Force food and cannot be kept for reproduction.

The seeds produced by conventional sowing and growing trees can take root and germinate normally, and then grow into large trees, which can then be cultivated on a large scale.

If you do this, once you are discovered by others, you may be ordered to eradicate it. In serious cases, it may trigger tribal conflicts or even escalate into war.

However, Longbai lives far away in Yunji Continent and has no such concerns at all. He plans to open orchards in Fanglan Mountain and Molan Mountain to plant these top plants on a large scale.

There are two benefits to large-scale cultivation: first, it greatly increases the probability of obtaining a God-given seed; second, once a God-given seed is obtained, the value of the Force food produced is also among the highest in the continent.

Luo Li was not stupid. When he heard the number reported by Long Bai, he immediately understood what he was thinking and said politely:

"Long Bai, you have to pay for the original stone."

Long Bai: "Don't you want to send it away?"

Luo Ji: "I only said I would give you two seeds for planting, but I didn't say I would help you build an orchard."

Long Bai was dissatisfied and asked: "Luo Li, Mo Lan and I purchased something worth 9,000 rough stones from you, and you are so stingy and only willing to give away two seeds?"

Luo Li said angrily: "Don't you know the caravan very well? Then you should also know where these seeds come from?"

Long Bai: "Then give less, 10 pieces each."

Luo Li was silent, thought for a while, and said seriously: "Long Bai, you plan to take Mo Lan to open an orchard in Yunji Continent and plant it on a large scale, right? Let me give you a suggestion, don't be greedy for too much, it's best to Specialize in one large species of plant.”

"No matter what you do, only by being focused and dedicated can you get things done and become bigger and stronger."

"I can only give you 10 seeds each of Green Torreya, King Cedar, Golden Pine, Black Emperor Peach, Kuili and Spotted Pear. You can try planting them first and choose a suitable large one, and then I will help you Get more seeds.”

"All right……"

Long Bai agreed.

Luo Li didn't know about the throne, and she didn't know that Long Bai could develop the ant kingdom.

With a single male ant king and a mantis warrior, it is difficult to cultivate and manage a variety of plants on a large scale.

Long Bai couldn’t say much.

All deals settled.

Luo Qi uses spider silk to pick up and load goods.

All kinds of force food, plus 90 raw stones, a big pocket full.

Finally, Luo Li handed five colorful spider silk rolls to Long Bai.

One side of the spider silk roll is embroidered with turquoise lacquer grass, which was spun by the Spider King himself. It is its token and is called the 'Spider King Silk Scroll'.

The other side of the spider silk roll is embroidered with a red spider, and the red color represents 1,000 rough stones.

5 Spider King Silk Rolls means that the caravan led by the Zeqi Spider King has deposited 5,000 rough stones.

If you can't find Luo Ji when you look back, you can go directly to the Zeqi Spider King. The thing belongs to him and he will be responsible for it.

Long Bai packed up his things and asked, "Luo Li, we have God-given seeds in our territory. Will you come back next year?"

Luo Li: "I have another trade route in the Continent of Ten Thousand Nations. There are many old friends waiting for me. I have to go there every other year. On the Continent of Ten Thousand Nations, I can only come once every other year. "

Luo Li asked: "Long Bai, do you know Master Bai Wei?"

Long Bai: "Of course."

Luo Li: "What do you think of it?"

Long Bai: "Very good..."

Luo Li: "Next year, Bai Wei will follow the Zeqi Spider King to the Continent of Ten Thousand Kingdoms, and he will come to trade with you. Long Bai, what do you think?"

Long Bai: "Luo Li, I believe you."

Luo Li: "You can also trust Bai Wei."

"And the Zeqi Spider King, he admires you very much."

Luo Li added, and then said: "After I go back, I will explain everything clearly to Bai Wei. Next year, you just need to take the Spider King's letter and give it to Bai Wei, and she will give you the force food."

"The same goes for God-given seeds. Bai Wei will give you a fair purchase price and help you keep the secret."
