Astral Ant Tribe

Potato Leaf Star, North 4201 District.

Pandan Mountain.

The insects are busy, selecting sites, digging and improving the soil, and planning and preparing for the rebirth of a large number of Force plants in the tree core.

The half-ant-shaped artist spans space and teleports back to the mountain.

"Your Majesty!"

"Leader Longbai!"

"President Bai Wei!"

Led by Mo Lan, several insects waiting for news at the foot of the mountain greeted each other, and at the same time activated their soul-fixing abilities to notify other insects from a distance.

After hearing the news, the insects scattered everywhere activated their teleportation abilities and rushed back.

"Longbai?\

,""President Bai Wei?"

"How's it going? Is it done?"

"It's done! It's all done! The root territory, source material gems, and zero-level source points are all in place at once."

"Wow!"

"Very good!"

"Thank you for your hard work, Your Majesty."

"President Bai Wei is interested!"

"It can be seen that Old Spider Shuigan is not very happy, but he can't lose his temper at all. Ha. Ha."

"Hahaha."

"It's good now. In the next ten thousand years, we will definitely take root in the Sheep's Hoof Galaxy and develop."

"The territory lease contract has been signed, and everyone can arrange for the tree heart to be reborn."

"I'll be very busy next time."

"Your Majesty, what will happen in ten thousand years?"

"Nothing unexpected happens, it won't move."

"Where is the zero-level source point?"

"After ten thousand years, we won't be able to collect 50 billion raw crystals, and we won't be able to rent a zero-level source point, right?"

"I am very sure of that."

“Develop rapidly for 10,000 years, then go dormant, accumulate capital, and then rent other sources.”

"Not necessarily, right? The trade in royal honey and genetic agents has grown, so there is still hope, right?"

"Things that will happen ten thousand years from now should not be considered urgently now."

"You can activate your StarNet account to view our Chamber of Commerce information. The source point we rent is officially named 'Blue Star System'..."

…

All the bugs started checking the StarNet account capabilities, and sure enough, the information had been synchronized through the StarNet.

There is an additional column in the Chamber of Commerce information: [Source: Azure Star System]

Mind control unfolds and detailed information can be viewed.

There was cheering and chattering for a while,

Bai Wei took out the blue beads refined from the remains of the Force plants that she helped transport, then said goodbye and returned to Huangtaoshan to report the situation.

On the Xianglan Mountain side, the Zerg warriors were also busy going their separate ways.

Long Bai buried his head and released the tree heart of his life seed. The divine pattern in the space on his forehead shone brightly, and then took out the tree heart of the wild god-given seed.

"Mo Lan, don't be idle. You have strong elemental abilities, so you should also help with the work."

"Juniper, emerald cypress, tidy up the caves to live in and build nests for larvae."

"Heiti, Hei Ye, Black Birch, Black Persimmon, Spades, and Black Sophora japonica, the six of you will take the lead in arranging the rebirth of the divinely gifted seeds."

"Juniper, giant cypress, green cypress, silver cypress, rainbow cypress, rainbow tea, rainbow apricot, and rainbow light, you choose the site and modify the soil. Prepare for the rebirth of other Force plants."

"Zi, Hongsang, Green Stone, you three should follow suit and help depending on the situation."

Long Bai gave simple instructions, picked out the heart of the big king cypress tree, and took it with him personally to find an inconspicuous hilltop ten kilometers away from Xianglan Mountain.

The earth element ability is activated,

Turn over the soil, loosen the soil, modify the soil texture,

Build a soil bag about ten meters above the ground and plant seeds into the soil.

The refined blue beads were mixed with water for irrigation.

When exposed to water, they take root and sprout and grow rapidly.

Before setting off to the Qiming Star System, Da Wang Bai fused with Shining Gold and stored a large amount of raw energy, energy and nutrients inside.

Now in midsummer, the light and temperature conditions are perfect.

In just one day, the height of the tree exceeded 10 meters.

Long Bai personally guards, and greets the prosperity mark, tranquility, and spring of life together.

Three days later, the height of the tree exceeded 30 meters.

Half a month later, when the height of the tree exceeded 60 meters, the sleeping soul of King Cypress awakened.

"..."

"..."

"Long Bai, are you there? Such strong natural force! Is this a secondary source point?"

"That's right! This is the Sheep's Hoof star system, the Potato Leaf Star. The force concentration is 2.1, which is three times that of the Jiaolan Star..."

Long Bai introduced the situation at hand in detail, telling him that he had partnered with Bai Wei and successfully obtained a huge benefit from Shui Gan.

Relax for three more days,

The height of the King Cypress tree reaches 70 meters, and the soul state is restored to fullness.

"Big Wang Bai, can you fuse the source gems?"

"It should be fine."

"You don't need to save, just use the power of the source stone to speed up the recovery and growth."

"Long Bai, I think this matter may not be rushed."

Da Wang Bai said: "According to my observation, the acceleration effect of the source gems is about 15 to 30 times. The first two have the best effect, and the third one has attenuation. Starting from the fourth one, the acceleration effect is stable at 15 times. about."

"A single source gemstone, if used sparingly, will only last 400 to 500 years. Starting from the fourth gemstone, the final effect of each gemstone is approximately equivalent to 6,000 years of enlightenment under normal circumstances."

"But I feel that it will take at least 50,000 to 60,000 years to achieve the kind of 'adaptive evolution' at the soul level you mentioned."

Long Bai: "..."

Long Bai asked: "Da Wang Bai, what do you mean, there are still three source gems left?"

King Bai: "That's what I mean. However, what I want to say is that even with the assistance of source-quality gems, it will take more than two thousand years to achieve success. Don't worry about the past few years or decades."

Long Bai moved his tentacles, speechless. He thought about it for a while, and the divine pattern on his forehead shone. He took out an elemental gem, pressed the water tentacles on the trunk of the giant cypress tree, and said:

"Take one to fuse first."

"Wang Bai, your understanding and thinking of the world are no longer inferior to mine. You know your own situation best. You can handle various matters yourself."

"……good."

The spiritual power of the giant cypress is wrapped around it, pulling it into the tree trunk.

…

Ye Xiang and Bai Qi were both in the semi-star realm, and their soul consciousness awakened at about the same time.

The recovery status of the other four divine-grade God-given seeds was not much worse than that of the King Cypress, and they woke up one after another after about ten days.

…

"Mantis, secondary source point? Where is this?"

"Sheep's Hoof Star System, Potato Leaf Star, North 4201 Area, Force Concentration 2.1..."

"How many yuan crystals did you rent?"

"free!"

"hehe."

"Do not believe?"

"I believe it~"

"Good news! We successfully rented a zero-level source point with a Force concentration of 0.6 and six primitive planets to be developed. Officially named the 'Blue Star System'..."

"Azure?"

Shuangse Sang was furious and said, "Why? Why should an ordinary seed given by God be named after it?"

"Yeah. Yeah. I'm angry too."

It was a rare agreement of opinion. Mo Lan was equally annoyed and said: "Ant secretly named it without consulting me. Moreover, this naming cannot be changed."

"oh--"

"Ant-"

"That's okay."

"Zhanlan is the ant's first destiny plant, a god-given plant. It is also an alien civilization plant, and it is also a super-grade god-given plant. It is reasonable to say that it is barely enough."

Shuangse Sang asked: "Where is the ant? Please let it come over. I have something to ask it."

"..."

Mo Lan's eyes gradually became colder, she tilted her head to think, buried her head, the divine pattern on her forehead flashed, and a purple-black gem fell out.

"Yeah. Why did I lose my gem~"

"childish!"

Shuangse Sang looked down upon him and scolded, "Mantis! Bring it here!"

The pokeweed divine pattern on Mo Lan's forehead flashed again, and the source gem disappeared.

"I still have something to do. I'm going to go ahead. Ant has a lot of things to do and I'm busy, so I don't have time to talk to you. Shuangse Sang, please stop causing trouble, be quiet and recover well."

Mo Lan said, turned around and left slowly.

Shuangse Sang ignored it, turned his mental power, and asked the king Mo Lan in the distance:

"Dalan, when did you wake up?"

"The night before yesterday."

"Then did you get the Source Stone?"

"got it."

"Have you asked? How many ants did the ants get in total? How to distribute them?"

"...I don't know."

Shuangse Sang's spiritual power deflected again, locking Wu Yi.

"Wuyi, answer the question well, otherwise, I will chase you and chat with you for a hundred years...Do you understand?"

"……able."

"When did you wake up?"

"Four days ago."

"Did you get the Source Stone?"

"got it."

"How many ants did you get in total? How were you arranged?"

"I heard them talking... said there were 20 of them? All the resources have been used to rent land, so we can only satisfy the azure blue god-given seeds and the divine-grade god-given seeds first."

"Ok, I see."

Shuangse Sang analyzed: "Based on my understanding of ants. It must be arranged like this, Azure plus four divine products, five trees, each tree has 3 source gems, a total of 15. The remaining 5 are arranged for King Cypress.”

Cymbidium:"……"

Shuangse Sang: "Mantis, come back here! Take my 3 gems! Don't quibble! You don't have to say anything about such a big thing. It must be arranged by Ant."

Cymbidium:"……"

Mo Lan: "The resources are shared by Ant and I. These six source gems are mine. I can arrange them however I want, Ant has no control over them."

"Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yes. Yes. Yes."

Shuangse Sang: "Mantis, let's think about the problem from another angle. Let's not mention the King Cypress. Look at Ant's divine product, the divine seed Bai Barberry. It's already at the half-star level, and it has the most valuable effect of extending life for ten thousand years. Aren’t you envious? If you don’t say it on the surface, you must be extremely jealous in your heart, right?”

Shuangse Sang: "Look at your two divine products again. They are just at the Star Mark Realm. Aren't you in a hurry?"

Mo Lan: "There's no rush."

Shuangse Sang: "Okay. I'm not in a hurry then. I'll be stuck in the Star Mark Realm for a million years. Let's see who dies first..."

…

…

brand new territory,

There are many things to deal with.

The first is the need to re-cultivate the ant colony.

Starting with medium, small and micro worker ants and blue ants, about 30,000 are needed to be responsible for the logistics of the ant nest, land reclamation, and the production of queen honey and king beads.

There are about 20,000 soil-type mountain ants, cultivating orchards and transforming territories.

There are about 100,000 wood-type specialized green ants, dedicated to taking care of the original plants.

The Goat's Hoof star system is a secondary source point. The insects living here are either rich or noble. They are all developed and have a certain prestige and status. Generally, they will not take the initiative to cause trouble.

Those who maintain order in the star system are also powerful warriors from the realm.

Once the secondary source point is settled, safety will definitely be guaranteed.

There is no need to cultivate too many territorial soldier ants, just do a good job of patrolling and vigilance.

It is planned to have 30,000 water-type specialized blue soldiers; 30,000 wind-type specialized air soldiers; 20,000 thunder-type specialized thunder soldiers and wood-type specialized blue soldiers each.

Just cultivate 100,000 fighting ants and organize them into the fourth legion, commanded by Jubai and assisted by Hongcha.

…

Long Bai personally directed the design and construction of the Xianglan Mountain ant nest. He also personally took Ju Bai and Hongcha to familiarize themselves with the territory's environment and selected the top of the hill to open separate nests.

It’s been a busy month,

All the force plants were settled, and the ordinary god-given seeds also woke up from their slumber.

All important matters in the territory are properly arranged.

…

In the White Crystal Galaxy, all first-, second-, and third-level settlement sources, no matter who owns them, are organized and established by the White Crystal Chamber of Commerce, and have a unified ‘business district’, which is uniformly managed by the White Crystal Chamber of Commerce.

The business district of the Yangtai star system is located in the south 1001 area of ​​Gongfenxing, which belongs to the Chonglou Chamber of Commerce.

The entire district, 26,000 square kilometers of land, has been planned into streets and shops.

There are tens of millions of insects in the entire star system, and they can be purchased or sold at any time, and they can be bought and sold freely.

…

Bai Wei, Hong Tao, and Zhu Ban, who were inspecting the market, ran back.

"Longbai Ant King, bought the latest version of the knowledge on source point construction and planetary ecological transformation..."

Bai Wei said, and a black disc with gray veins, about 10 centimeters in diameter, and no visible material appeared out of thin air and floated towards Long Bai.

"This thing is called the 'Knowledge Compass'. By injecting a ray of force and communicating with your mind, you can read the contents inside."

"I heard that professional Zerg warriors use the soul system's 'writing' ability to store information in it. Presumably our 'Tree Flower Heart Realm' can also be used. Don't throw it away after use. It can be used repeatedly."

"3000 raw crystals are not expensive, and the price depends on the materials, knowledge is not valuable..."

While Bai Wei was introducing, Mo Lan raised her paw to grab the thing, read the information inside, tilted her head, activated her super brain power, and began to analyze the information.

Long Bai raised his paw to take a picture, and according to the method taught by Bai Wei, he injected a ray of original force and read the content with mental contact.

The majestic information was directly entered into the soul consciousness, and the mind was in a trance.

Long Bai buried his head in thought, briefly 'reading' it and then put it aside for the time being.

"President Bai Wei, how is the market for 'gene agents'?"

"It's not easy to do...any insect can do it..."

Bai Wei: "Any insect that spends millions of raw crystals to purchase a set of technological equipment can make it by itself. A slightly larger tribe or multi-ethnic mixed force with a certain strength will produce and process it by themselves, and then Rent a shop in Gongfenxing Commercial District and sell it yourself."

"Most of the forces that have become the climate, the Force food produced in the territory is processed into genetic agents by themselves. It is difficult for us to purchase it! At least, it is difficult to do it here in the Sheep's Foot star system. You have to go to the first-level source Run."

Long Bai: "In that case, the speed of the Star Spider is crucial."

Bai Wei: "Yes. Moreover, we have too few insects. Maybe we need to find other chambers of commerce to cooperate."

Bai Wei: "I discussed it with Hongtao and Styloma and made a preliminary development plan. You can listen to it, Dragon Cypress Ant King."

"We are renting a shop in the Sheep's Hoof star system as our base camp. Stylus and Yuteng will be the permanent residents, and Longbai Ant King and your Fanglan Mountain Chamber of Commerce will also send two Zerg warriors to help."

"The normal business is to sell force honey, queen honey, genetic agents, purchase high-quality force food from the star realm and above, and purchase god-given force food from the scar realm and above."

Bai Wei considered her words and said, "Let's focus on the gene agent."

"Due to the large quantity and variety of ordinary force food, there is a serious overflow within the Zerg. Therefore, it will not be processed into gene agents and will still be traded in the form of seeds."

"Only food given by God will be processed into genetic agents that can be preserved for a long time."

"The average star-level god-given gene agent is a standard 100,000 yuan/piece. The soul type is ten times the price, 1 million/piece. The soul type is special, let's not mention it for now."

"Let's calculate based on the conventional god-given gene agent. The raw materials usually account for 90% of the selling price, and the processing loss is 3%, which is 93%. The metal tube used for packaging is expensive, with a fixed price of 2,000 raw crystals/piece. There is also the cost of royal jelly used for packaging, but the amount used is small and insignificant."

"Calculated in this way, the cost of using technological equipment to process and produce genetic agents exceeds 95%, plus the cost of starship transportation, and the final profit is less than 5%."

"But if we do it, without processing losses, the profit can reach between 7% and 8%? A raw crystal sells for 100,000 yuan, and the profit is 7,000 to 8,000 yuan!"

"If it's a god-given gene agent at the Sujing level, the unified standard is 1 million per tube. Diluting the cost of encapsulating metal tubes, the profit exceeds 9%, and one can earn more than 90,000 raw crystals."

“If we can make it bigger and do it, the benefits will be considerable.”

Long Bai tapped his tentacles to express his approval and asked: "Where are the force honey and queen honey?"

Bai Wei: "Old rules, the cost is controlled at about 95%, and we only make a meager profit of 5%. We still make 1,000 raw crystals/can of trace-level queen honey."

"Considering that there are still a large number of Star Realm and Su Realm Zerg warriors in the White Crystal Galaxy, they must be upgraded simultaneously. For the Star Realm, we will make 10,000 raw crystals/can. For the Su Realm, we will make 100,000 raw crystals/can. Can."

Bai Wei paused and then said: "The business of ordinary raw honey has low profits. Just make it in moderation. If you don't make it in large quantities, it will waste royal jelly. Once royal honey becomes famous and the market opens, we will use ordinary raw honey to make it." Honey stopped.”

Long Bai moved his tentacles in approval.

Bai Wei: "The most important thing is the divine fruit trading! This has become complicated, I'm afraid it won't be possible."

"We have inquired about all the eighth-level and seventh-level chambers of commerce. They all issue letter rolls similar to the 'Tree Flower Letter Card'. The models are similar, but they are bigger."

"For example, the Luoluo Chamber of Commerce, the unified name they issue is the 'Luoluo Message'. The model is slightly different. They have specialized shops in every galaxy and every commercial district, specializing in the trading of divine fruits.

They will list all the divine fruits in the hands of the chamber of commerce, number them, announce the sale time, location and price, and issue the corresponding numbered letter rolls, which are usually not broken into pieces. One divine fruit is a coupon, usually Is issued in batches of 5 to 10. "

"All Zerg warriors can make a reservation at the designated sales store in advance with the 'Luojun Message'."

Bai Wei: "There is also the way to distribute the Luojun letter scrolls... For example, Longbai Ant King, your divine night scented fruit, has a market price of 4 million raw crystals/piece. The Luojun Chamber of Commerce may come to you and offer you 3.6 million/piece. Purchase it at the price of a piece, and pay with the Luoji letter roll you need corresponding to the amount."

"When you get the Luoluo letter scroll, you can sell it or exchange it with other Zerg warriors. You can also get it from any shop in the Luoluo Chamber of Commerce that specializes in the trading of divine products and exchange it for letter rolls of other types of divine fruits. The rules are high Swap low, or trade more for less, but not vice versa.”

Bai Wei said: "The most disgusting thing is that these shops of the eighth- and seventh-level chambers of commerce specialize in the trading of divine items, and they also provide cross-chamber exchange services. For example, if you hold a letter scroll worth 3 million yuan, but you need to re- There is a certain divine fruit sold by the Chonglou Chamber of Commerce. Then, you can go to the shop of Luoluo or Chonglou Chamber of Commerce and exchange it for a letter from the Chonglou Chamber of Commerce corresponding to the divine fruit worth 3 million."

"It is equivalent to say that this kind of letter has become the hard currency of the entire Zerg civilization. Theoretically, as long as you master one divine product, you can buy all types of divine fruits in the three major galaxies through exchange!"

"The seventh- and eighth-level chambers of commerce have reputation guarantees. Our third-level small chambers of commerce do not."

Long Bai: "..."

Long Bai: "Very good. Very good."

Long Bai: "Then we don't need to issue 'Tree Flower Letter Plates' or anything like that. Directly anchor the letter rolls of these large chambers of commerce."

"For example, we sell the divine night scented fruit directly in our own store at a price of 4 million yuan per fruit, and payment must be made with a letter from a large chamber of commerce."

Bai Wei: "...Yes."

Bai Wei: "Then there's nothing wrong with me. The trade in divine fruits that was supposed to be lucrative was ruined by these big chambers of commerce."

really.

Those who are willing to disclose information about divine products can open their own store and sell them publicly.

If you don't want other insects to know that you have a divine item, you can take it to the Great Chamber of Commerce for sale.

Third-level small chambers of commerce are no longer eligible to participate directly.

Long Bai: "President Bai Wei, you can also do derivative business of letter rolls. I did a little calculation and found that there are many tricks in it!"

Bai Wei: "...that's right."

Bai Wei sighed: "There are many tricks. But the first profit was taken away by the big chamber of commerce, and the profit is no longer good. It can't be done much anymore."

Long Bai shook his tentacles gently and said nothing.

Bai Wei continued: "In the Sheep's Hoof Star System, there is also a 1.9-level source point called the 'Citrus Star System'. There are also a large number of Zerg warriors living there, and business is prosperous."

"Let's go back and rent a shop in the Xiang Huo star system. Qingtao and Nandi will be stationed there permanently. King Longbai Ant, you must send at least one assistant king there to direct the refining of the blue ants."

"For other first-level source star systems, we can only find cooperation with other chambers of commerce to help sell queen honey and genetic agents, and purchase God-given force food."

Bai Wei: "Me, Hongtao, and Dudou, the three of us drove the Star Spider and traveled around various points of the Force. Distributing goods, transporting goods, and visiting some wealthy and powerful forces on a large scale."

Bai Wei: "Currently, the development of the White Crystal Galaxy mainly relies on royal honey and genetic agents for profit. The transaction of divine products can only be done incidentally."

As Bai Wei spoke, she changed the topic and said, "However, Long Bai Ant King, I have found a more profitable business! We can cooperate and do it together! It will be more profitable than your zero-level source point operation!"

Long Bai asked: "What business?"

Bai Wei: "Contract the mission of source point construction, build star systems, and develop life planets."

Bai Wei: "In the universe, 99% of the source points and matter do not overlap. In most cases, the source point is born in one place, but the matter falls in other places. To build the source point galaxy, it needs to be moved nearby and suitable Stars need to collect materials and create planets.”

"This is a big project, usually starting at one trillion yuan! Moreover, the zero-level source point of the White Crystal Galaxy is only about half developed. Such a project is relatively easy to contract."

"Also, after the Source Point star system is built, it needs to be cultivated and an ecosystem built. King Longbai Ant, the ant colonies you cultivated using the Throne of Control are stronger and smarter than ordinary ants. You must be good at this."

"The most important thing is that we have 'adaptive evolution' and 'technological star core'. We have great advantages in doing this kind of work!"

Long Bai: "Theoretically speaking, yes..."

Long Bai: "But right now, with our little capital and strength, we can't do such a big job, right?"

Bai Wei: "It's definitely not possible now. I'm talking about long-term considerations. Let's first determine the direction of future development."

Are you thinking too long-term? You are using light years as the unit of length...

Long Bai clicked his tentacles and said: "It depends on the situation, you can consider it!"

Long Bai greeted: "President Bai Wei, Hongtao, Styloma, Molan, Baifan, Black Sophora japonica, Green Heart, let's go to Gongfenxing, South 1001 Commercial District." (End of Chapter)
