Astral Ants

Chapter 124 A Disgusting Ant
"Zeqi Spider King, I'll go to Qiye to discuss it."

Bai Wei rooted the life seed in a hurry, left a word, turned around and ran away before the Zeqi Spider King agreed.

Zeqi Spider King: "..."

Bai Wei came to the business district where the Caowu caravan took root, went straight to Qiye, got closer, lowered her mind, and asked:
"Master Qiye, have you got the orchid seeds?"

"of course."

"How is the quality?"

"Excellent."

"What about the price? Zeqi Spider King ordered us to unify the purchase price."

"The unit price is 11 rough stones/grain."

"it is good!"

"goodbye!"

Bai Wei turned and left, patiently walked down the hill, climbed up the hill quickly, and ran towards the grove.

Long Bai and Mo Lan each carried a spider silk bag and waited.

"Molan! Wow! You left me with so many pandan seeds! That's great!"

"Huh? Little Cypress, what are you doing with a metal can?"

"Lord Baiwei Mountain!" Mo Lan greeted happily, opened the spider silk bag with a stab, and proudly said: "600 grains!"

Long Bai waved his tentacles and said, "Let's look at the orchid seeds first."

Bai Wei manipulated the spider silk, twirled one, inspected it with style, and then lowered the price: "10 rough stones/grain, I will take it."

Mo Lan: "Okay."

Long Bai: "OK."

Bai Wei: "???"

Why don't you two bargain?
Bai Wei was overjoyed: I made a lot of money!

Suddenly enlightened, realized something was wrong.

That bastard Qiye is cheating on me? !
Bai Wei: "Mo Lan, at what price did the Lord of Qiye Mountain buy it? Can you tell me?"

Mo Lan: "10 rough stones/grain."

really!

The worm's heart is sinister!
Bai Wei was secretly annoyed.

Long Bai said leisurely: "600 god-given fruit pandan seeds, 6000 rough stones."

Bai Wei: "That's right."

Long Bai: "It's time to pay back the 4000 rough stones I owe Luoqin, including 4800 rough stones with interest. There are also 500 rough stones from Skygreen Persimmon Seeds. This time the total is 5300 rough stones."

Bai Wei calculated silently for a while, and said, "That's right."

Bai Wei: "You guys have 700 rough stones left, do you need to buy something?"

"No rush." ​​Long Bai opened the spider silk bag he was carrying, revealing the metal can inside, pressed it with both feet, pulled the buckle with his molars, and opened the lid.

The faint and sweet fruit aroma spreads out.

There is the original force scattered.

"This is--"

Bai Wei stared at it for a while, manipulated a spider silk rope, dipped it, and tasted it.

"It tastes good."

"There are many kinds of force food for strengthening the body."

"The aromas of many kinds of fruit come together."

"And a little honey mixed in."

Bai Wei manipulated the spider silk rope, ate several mouthfuls, and praised: "Delicious! Delicious!"

Bai Wei asked again: "What is this?"

Long Bai: "Ant honey."

Long Bai explained: "Didn't I acquire the ability to mutate the water system? A new ability awakened by the evolution of a high-level ant queen. You can refine, concentrate, and mix various foods, including force foods, to make this sweet ant honey. "

"Really? So powerful!"

The spider silk rope binding the goods on Baiwei's carapace was untied, pierced and pierced, and the spider silk bag containing the original force food was opened, and a spider silk bag was spread on the ground, and various original force food was taken out and placed on it.

"Long Bai, show me how to refine, concentrate, and mix?"

Long Bai: "..."

Mo Lan: "It's not convenient to show..."

Long Bai: "What's so interesting about this, it's almost like bees making honey."

"Really? Let me see." Bai Wei was extremely curious.

Long Bai and Mo Lan thought about how to explain the source of the ant honey before they came, but they never expected that Bai Wei, a stupid guy, would ask for a live production.

Mo Lan: "Master Baiwei, please give me an estimate first."

Bai Wei: "How many raw stones did you use to make the original force food?"

Long Bai: "Based on the selling price to the caravan, 700 rough stones."

Bai Wei woke up suddenly, understood what Long Bai meant, and asked, "Can you make ant honey in batches?"

Long Bai: "Yes."

Bai Wei: "We can cooperate to make metal cans and ant honey in large quantities, and then..."

Long Bai: "You buy the bitter, unpalatable, or even poisonous force food from the Wanzu Continent and the Wanguo Continent at a low price, and give it to me to refine, remove the bitterness and impurities, concentrate and mix, and make this ant honey."

"I use the original food that sells for 700 rough stones, make it into a can, and sell it to you at a price of 800 rough stones per can."

"If you ship it to the Ten Thousand Races Continent, you can sell it at a price of 1000 rough stones per jar. You can earn 200 rough stones per jar."

"That's right!" Bai Wei's compound eyes lit up when she saw the business opportunity.

Long Bai picked up a prepared wooden sign sample and explained:
"I use the thick and powerful pattern of the hind legs of a praying mantis as a mark, which represents comprehensive physical strengthening."

Long Bai turned to the other side of the wooden sign and said, "I used the raspberry pattern, which means that the taste and aroma of ant honey is light."

Long Bai: "Considering that different insects have different tastes, I designed a total of four types of ant honey: light fragrance, strong fragrance, dried fruit fragrance and mixed fragrance. Today I only brought a can of the fragrance type as a sample."

Bai Wei: "!!!"

Bai Wei understood what Long Bai meant, and was too excited to speak.

Long Bai continued: "The jars containing the original force ant honey can be made into the same type. When I finished the production, I tied such a wooden nameplate with a spider silk rope on the lid of each jar, indicating the type of enhancement and the taste. type."

Bai Wei: "Understood!"

Pointing to the rice grain-shaped groove on the wooden sign, Long Bai said, "One grain of rice marks represents the value of 1 rough stones. For the Force Ant Honey we make, we only set 1000 rough stones/can and 1000 rough stones/can for the time being. models."

"In this way, when you sell goods, you no longer need to worry about complicated price calculations and waste time. Just counting rice grains is simple and straightforward."

Bai Wei: "!!!"

"Extremely clever idea!"

"Genius idea!"

Bai Wei praised wildly.

Long Bai: "Take a sample first and try the effect. If there are bugs willing to buy, we will gradually increase the quantity and then make large batches."

Bai Wei: "There must be bugs who are willing to buy it! You just make it in large batches!"

Long Bai shook his tentacles lightly and said, "Not necessarily."

Bai Wei: "Why?"

Long Bai: "Ordinary worms find it difficult to accept innovative new things, especially when they have drawbacks."

Bai Wei: "Disadvantages?"

Mo Lan rushed to explain: "The original force in the original force ant honey will slowly drain."

"...Yes."

"It's a fatal flaw."

Bai Wei heard the words, the excitement and ecstasy disappeared, she looked at the metal can again, thought for a while, and closed the lid.

Meditate induction.

Long Bai: "I tested it with Mo Lan. Putting the lid on can effectively lock the original force. Within a year, there won't be too much loss. But if it can't be sold for a long time, serious quality will appear. question."

Bai Wei: "Force food in the form of seeds, stored in a spider silk bag, it can last for two or three years, and it can last for four or five years, and it will not deteriorate."

Bai Wei: "The biggest risk of traveling in business is that no one is willing to buy the original force food. When I was young, there were many losses caused by this."

Long Bai: "Yes. So we must first confirm that the things can be sold, and then consider gradually increasing production."

Bai Wei: "Understood."

Bai Wei opened the lid, manipulated the spider silk rope again, tasted a few mouthfuls, rekindled her confidence, and said:
"It's even more delicious than the original force honey. Absolutely, definitely, there must be insects willing to buy it."

Long Bai: "That also needs to be confirmed first. You have the backing of Luochen Mountain Lord, and you are not afraid of losing money. Mo Lan and I can't afford it."

Bai Wei: "...I can't afford it either."

Bai Wei was displeased, and asked, "How is this ant honey made?"

Bai Wei and Mo Lan have the same personality, and they must get to the bottom of strange things.

But the ability of 'refining' was not mastered by the ant king, Long Bai.

"Just like honey."

"Honey? Specifically?"

"It is to eat something, digest it, spit it out, eat it again, spit it out again, and repeat it a hundred times..."

"you?"

"Could it still be Mo Lan?"

"Damn! You are such a disgusting ant!"

Bai Wei wanted to vomit.

However, with the powerful digestion ability of the mountain master-level flame spider, the ant honey is absorbed almost instantly when it enters the stomach, and it can't spit it out even if it wants to vomit.
