Astral Ants

Chapter 272 Enough Friends

On the carapaces of the green maple and the red maple, each had a large spider silk bag filled with rough stones, following behind the grass dragon, it was difficult to move, and when it approached the entrance of the cave, its six legs went limp and it was paralyzed.

"Help, Dragon Cypress Ant King~"

"Grass Dragon wants our insect life~"

Green Maple and Red Maple wailed and screamed.

Long Bai: "..."

Long Bai looked at Cao Long, "What's wrong?"

Cao Long said calmly: "These two little things are so courageous, they dare to threaten and blackmail the owner of Qiluo Mountain."

Caolong asked back: "Long Bai, don't you arrange them to stare at me? They are thinking about taking kickbacks first. They can also play tricks. How old is this little soldier? It doesn't matter. I will teach them for you .”

Long Bai: "...a good lesson!"

Long Bai: "...I'll clean them up when I get back."

Long Bai: "Let's talk about business first."

Long Bai waved his tentacles, and asked suspiciously: "Didn't the Lord Baiwei come here first in previous years?"

Caolong: "Baiwei has a lot of goods this year and is busy. Luoli and I will go up the mountain to trade first."

"Oh--"

Long Bai: "Grass Dragon, let's talk about business. How about the food I want from God's Force? Did you get it?"

"of course."

Grass Dragon thought about turning to untie the spider silk rope on the carapace, and began to unload the goods, talking and handing them here.

Long Bai checked each one.

Counting done.

Only then did the grass dragon untie the spider silk rope that bound the green maple and the red maple.

Qingfeng and Hongfeng rushed back to Longbai, and were about to accuse Caolong of his atrocities, Longbai waved his tentacles, beckoning them to go back to rest.

when they go away,
Only then did Long Bai ask: "Caolong, what happened to the metal box last year?"

Caolong: "Sold 1 rough stones, earning hard money."

Long Bai didn't believe it, and asked, "Did you find the Zeqi Spider King to estimate the price?"

Caolong's eight eyes stared at Longbai, without saying a word.

Long Bai: "Tell the truth first, how many rough stones were sold."

Grass Dragon: "12000 rough stones, I'm not a spider to lie to you."

Long Bai asked, "How did Zeqi Spider King estimate its value?"

Grass Dragon: "1 rough stones."

Long Bai: "Okay. Let me tell you the truth, Mo Lan and I did dig up more than two. But you sold it too cheaply, so I'd better find Bai Wei to cooperate. The biggest advantage of Bai Wei's spider is sincerity." ,trustworthy."

"It was really sold for 12000 rough stones..."

Grass Dragon lost his momentum and said, "I sold it to a friend. 12000 is the friend's price."

Long Bai was shocked, and said: "A spider like you actually has friends!"

Grass Dragon said earnestly: "I asked Zeqi Spider King for advice. According to his estimation, 15000 rough stones will be sold very well. If you are not in a hurry, you can slowly sell them at a price of 18000 to 20000 rough stones per piece, and some insects will be willing to buy them."

Long Bai: "Then it's more appropriate for me to sell it to you at the price of 12000 rough stones."

Caolong: "My friend, can you also let me make a small fortune?"

Long Bai: "Yes. But, you have to do me a little favor."

Caolong: "You tell me."

Long Bai: "Go and talk to Zeqi Spider King, I'll exchange 100 metal boxes for a sacred lotus seed."

Grass Dragon: "???"

Grass Dragon: "100?!"

Caolong: "Do you want to exchange for the divine grade Youlianzi?"

Grass Dragon turned sideways and squinted: "Is it for the Molan Mantis?"

Long Bai: "Is there any problem?"

Caolong: "No problem... what about me? We are all friends."

I don't have a friend like you~
Long Bai: "I still have the metal box, I'll sell you 10 at a low price."

"Integer 100 and Integer 10?"

Grass Dragon responded very quickly, and said firmly: "There are more! Bring more! Give me 100 too."

Long Bai: "..."

Long Bai: "How can there be so many? There are only 11 left."

Long Bai: "Go to Zeqi Spider King first and ask. Use your brain, think of a way, and help me get this done, and I'll give you one."

Cao Long thought to himself, happily said: "Yes!"

Long Bai: "Trade first..."

……

at midnight,
Green maple and red maple leave with Caolong.

at dawn,
Hearts pulled the slate wheeled cart and galloped towards it.

"Heart, there are a lot of goods this year?"

"Yes. The total value of Force food is 65!"

"Are you looking for other caravans to cooperate with delivery?"

"Yes."

"Isn't that a lot of money?"

"It's okay. Baiwei Mountain is in its fifth age, and it needs to be considered as soon as possible for the evolution path after the lord level."

This is a little gold mantis who knows how to plan for the future.

Long Bai nodded his tentacles to express his approval.

Heart: "Longbai Ant King, you can earn more."

Long Bai: "That's right."

Heart: "But Baiwei Mountain Master can't earn enough rough stones, so it has a proposal to maintain a long-term cooperation."

Long Bai: "What proposal?"

Heart: "Let's calculate the marked price of the original honey, with a limit of 100 million. Within 100 million, you get 10% of the refining production cost, which is 10 rough stones. For more than 100 million rough stones, you get 5% production cost."

Heart: "Master Baiwei can use your reputation to guarantee that within three years, you can cooperate with Master Longbai to earn more than 10 rough stones every year."

Long Bai made some calculations, tapped the tentacles, and said briefly: "Yes!"

Long Bai should thank Bai Wei and Hong Tao.

There is also some admiration for both of them.

At the beginning, Long Bai did not have too high expectations when he asked Bai Wei to cooperate in the production and sale of Force Honey.

It was Baiwei and Hongtao who came up with the ingenious method of using royal jelly to seal the original force honey, and they promoted the original force honey, which brought tens of thousands of rough stones to Longbai every year.

It was because of this huge income that Long Bai was able to spend extravagantly at the advanced fighter stage.

"Longcypress Ant King!"

Qing Maple handed over the slate recording the pre-sale information.

Long Bai took it, glanced at it briefly and put it away, saying: "Heart, there is another piece of news, I think I need to inform you and Mount Baiwei in advance."

Heart: "What news?"

Long Bai: "The seed bestowed by the Crimson Light God is about to evolve into a lord level. The shortest period is two or three years, and the longest period is five or six years. My plan is to cut off all its flowers this winter."

"Oh--"

The heart's tentacles trembled, overjoyed, and thinking quickly.

Heart: "A few years before and after the evolution, there is no output of scarlet fruit bestowed by the gods, and the trading of scarlet queen honey will be suspended, right?"

Heart: "Okay! Received!"

Heart: "Master Baiwei and I arranged rough stones in advance!"

……

The deal with Bai Wei lasted for five days before it ended.

Send away the hearts.

The grass dragon hurried over.

"Long Bai, good news! With my unremitting efforts, Zeqi Spider King reluctantly agreed to your exchange request, but..."

"But what?"

"You Lianzi was harvested just last year. The next harvest will be nine years later."

"no problem."

"but……"

"But what?"

"Anyway, if you put the metal box in the cave, it won't generate any profit. Why don't you give it to the Zezi Spider King first."

"When?"

"Now."

Long Bai thought for a while, then agreed: "No problem."

Long Bai took the initiative and said: "I will send you the 10 that I sold to you at a low price, and the one that was given as a gift."

Caolong was overjoyed, "Enough friends!"

……

Long Bai led the ant colony back to Xianglan Mountain, ran alone, and sent the metal box spread in the restaurant to Caolong.

The deal with the Flame Spider Traveler ended this spring.

Send Green Maple and Red Maple back to Kiwi Mountain.

Take the cedar back to Xianglan Mountain to celebrate, count the wealth of the treasure house together, distribute rewards, and then send it to Bailian Lake. This year it will be responsible for the reclamation work of Bailian Lake.

Everything is done.

Long Bai lived in the royal family of the ant nest, and began to use various god-given force food to prepare for evolution.
