Chapter 194 The Wisdom of Spiders: Slate Wheel Carriage

"no problem."

Long Bai checked the lord-level force food one by one, and confirmed that he knew them all, and was able to judge the value and determine the price.

"no problem."

The green maple and red maple quickly completed the inventory of rough stones.

Bai Wei also completed the packaging of 35 cans of Scarlet Light and Southern Suanzao Royal Honey, manipulated the spider silk rope, and took off 6 large spider silk bags in succession, saying:

"It's worth 5 rough stones, the original force food produced by the mountain lord-level warrior territory, you should check it too."

Immediately afterwards, he took off 11 large spider silk bags, "These are the force food produced in the territory of senior fighters, with a total value of 7 rough stones. You have to read them all."

The total value of the force food sent by Baiwei this year is 17, with large quantity, high quality and various categories.

Long Bai led the green maple and the red maple, inspected them one by one, and explained to them.

After half a day, it was all sorted out.

Bai Wei took another spider silk bag and opened it, handed it to Long Bai, and said:

"Longbai, 1000 rough stones/jar of the original force honey jar, I adjusted the shape. This kind of original force honey is for junior and intermediate small soldiers, right? According to my observation, due to the small size of small soldiers , the previous cans, they have to lie on the cans, and it is very inconvenient to eat them. So, I changed to this 'short and fat' shape, and by the way, the mouth of the cans was reduced to reduce the amount of royal jelly. use, saving packaging costs.”

"Oh--"

"Pretty good, very reasonably optimized."

Long Bai picked up one and flipped through it, looked at it carefully, confirmed that the new type of device conformed to the aesthetics of normal insects, and tapped the tentacles to express his approval.

Bai Wei went on to say: "I brought 200 empty cans over this year. Still on the basis of ordering, I will ship more back. If the price is 1000 rough stones/can, I will still take 100 cans. For 2000 rough stones/can, I plan to take 40 cans. The fire-type and water-type elemental force food I sent is too much, you can make a few more cans, and you won’t worry about selling them.”

Long Bai: "Understood!"

After Bai Wei finished speaking, there was no more text.

Long Bai had no choice but to take the initiative to ask: "Where is the ice and fire kettle I want?"

Bai Wei: "...No."

Bai Wei: "This kind of extraterrestrial civilization creations are eventually bought by those wealthy worms. Unless there is an accident, otherwise, they will not be sold. I have entrusted several caravans to help find out. Once there are worms for sale, Help you get it as soon as possible."

"All right--"

Long Bai knew it, turned his head slightly to look at Heart, and asked, "Where are you going to carry it? Come, let me see the wisdom of spiders."

Bai Wei pulled out the two slender metal cylinders at the bottom of the goods and handed them to Heart, and manipulated the spider silk rope to quickly pack up the goods on the ground.

Cao Long couldn't help but ask: "Can two metal sticks solve the transportation problem?"

Bai Wei reprimanded in the tone of an elder: "Stop talking nonsense, read more, learn more, and use your brain more."

Grass Dragon: "..."

Longbai, Qingfeng, and Hongfeng were equally puzzled and completely unable to understand.

Bai Wei: "Go, go to the entrance of the cave on the hillside!"

Bai Wei and Hong Tao bounced and ran towards the hill.

Long Bai and his group quickly followed.

……

Carrying the metal stick, Hearts entered the interior of the starship.

Bai Wei pulled out 4 thick spider silks woven into circles with a diameter of about 1 meter.

The soil ability is activated, controlling a ball of soil to condense into a ball, flatten it, stretch it into a hollow disc, and prop up a spider silk circle.

4 spider silk circles, combined with the ability of the earth element, make 4 hollow discs.

Finally, he took out a small spider silk bag, opened it, and inside were all kinds of metal components, took out 4 metal circles, and embedded them in the disc.

They must have been rehearsed many times.

Hearts moved the discs into the passage one by one, took the metal parts from the spider silk bag, and fixed the discs at both ends of the metal rod.

Bai Wei continued to use her soil ability to condense into a stone slab with brackets that was 2 meters long and over 1 meter wide.

The stone slab also has two holes, which are tied with spider silk ropes.

Holding the spider silk rope, Hearts dragged the stone slabs into the channel, and stuck them on the metal rods and discs to complete the assembly.

"This is called a 'Slate Wheel Cart'. It rolls forward on flat ground, requiring almost no effort, and it is as wide as the flame spider's carapace, so it can transport a large amount of goods at one time."

Bai Wei said, and took all 10 bags of rough stones from the back armor.

The hearts are carried in bags one by one, and placed on the wheeled stone board.

Bai Wei manipulated the spider silk rope remotely to bind and fix the goods.

Heart stood in front of the wheelbarrow, holding the spider silk rope between its jaws, dragging it forward, making a deep rumbling sound, the roulette was rolling, and the wheelbarrow carrying 1 rough stones was easily pulled forward, speeding up, run up.

Hearts alone can pull 1 rough stones and run along the passage, it really doesn't look like much effort!

That's fine too!Longbai, Caolong, Qingfeng, and Hongfeng were stunned.

The structure is not complicated and can be understood at a glance.

However, before I saw it, I couldn't think of an ingenious structure even if I scratched my head.

——This chariot is better than the ruling throne!
——I open up wasteland and expand the land, can I use wheeled carts to transport earth and rocks?
Countless thoughts flashed through Long Bai's mind, only to feel that a door to a new world opened before his eyes.

After thinking about it again, I immediately realized the problem.

This thing can only run on hard flat ground, not on rugged mountainous terrain, nor on soft ground.Both uphill and downhill are particularly strenuous and prone to loss of control.

Long Bai lost interest in the 'Slate Wheel Cart'.

Bai Wei was still complacent, patted the grass dragon's back armor, and said with earnestness and earnestness:
"Little Grass Dragon! You are still too young. If you want to quickly become a qualified flame spider traveler, being able to speak well is not enough. You also need to develop a good habit of observing and thinking more, understand?"

Grass Dragon: "...Understood."

Heart pulled the cart and ran for a long distance, then pushed it back and said, "Master Baiwei, should we transport the rough stones first? The order is wrong! The original food should be transported there first. The Dragon Cypress Ant King stayed there to make The original force honey, I will make another trip to transport the rough stone, and then transport the finished original force honey back. This arrangement is more reasonable."

Bai Wei: "Ah—"

Bai Wei: "Yes! I know. I'll test it with the rough stone. After the test, let's move it out. First transport the force food."

……

On the wide, straight and flat main passage, the green maple and red maple run to lead the way, followed by the heart pulling a cart.

Long Bai and Cao Long followed behind, chatting while walking.

"Long Bai, where did those two kinds of god-given fruits come from? Bai Wei sent them here?"

"It doesn't have that ability. They are two wild god-given seeds I found in Yunji Continent. One is called 'Scarlet', which is mutated from the golden fruit tree; the other is Nanzizao, which has strengthened membrane wings. Bai Wei gave up other transactions, and only cooperated with me in the original force honey trade, and helped me deliver 1 rough spot stones every year, and as a condition, gave it the share of the two god-given seeds."

"Oh, I see."

Caolong lamented: "I made a bet with Yudou. I bet that within five years, Bai Wei would lose all the 5 rough stones that she borrowed from Zeqi Spider King. Alas, I'm doomed."

Long Bai: "..."

Caolong: "Longbai, you are so courageous. Baiwei is so unreliable, if it leaks the news of the wild god-given seed in the Ten Thousand Kingdoms Continent, you will die."

Long Bai: "Isn't it all right?"

Grass Dragon: "Be careful!"

The ant kingdom in Xianglan Mountain is growing day by day, and Long Bai is not that afraid, so he changed the subject and asked, "Caolong, what are your plans?"

Grass Dragon: "What are you going to do?"

Long Bai: "Ludou has started to trade independently."

Grass Dragon: "I'm still young, I'm still early, let's mix it up first. How much profit is 'Force Honey'? I really want to try it!"

Long Bai: "I mixed cheap and affordable original food worth 700 rough stones to make a can, and sold it to Bai Wei for 800. Bai Wei sold it for 1000 rough stones. The cost of the metal pot should be 20 rough stones to be reasonable, and the cost of royal jelly About 30 rough stones. The price of 1000 rough stones/can of original honey, sell a can, the profit is about 150 rough stones.”

Long Bai: "There are also food for high-level fighters and mountain master fighters. The price is 2000 rough stones/can. The cost of metal cans and royal jelly will not increase, and the profit of a single can is as high as 350 rough stones. In the future, we can also make 3000 rough stones/can Yes, higher profits."

Grass Dragon: "Sounds like attracting spiders... But it's not that easy to sell a can. Currently, the quality of the business route between me and Ludou is relatively low."

Long Bai: "I have newly obtained a hybrid and mutated Emerald Flower Hanlan God-bestowed Seed. It is of the wood type and is being bred. It will produce orchid seeds in a few years. Half of the share will be given to the owner of Qiye Mountain, and the other half will be given to you. ..."

The grass dragon was startled and jumped up, "Another seed bestowed by the gods?"

Long Bai said calmly: "Yes——"

Grass Dragon quickly calmed down and said with a smile, "It's really good to be friends with an ant king who is favored by the God of Nature."

"Yes—" Long Bai felt the same way.It's nice to be friends with a praying mantis favored by the nature gods.

Grass Dragon: "I'll also ask Zeqi Spider King to see if I can get some royal jelly."

Long Bai hesitated for a moment, but for the time being, he decided not to tell Cao Long about the news of 'Ant Royal Jelly', so he changed the topic and chatted.
