Astral Ant Tribe

Big forces also have big difficulties.

The Longback Pad Armor tribe has a population of over 1,800 insects, and each Zerg warrior has 54 life seeds. Including the wild God-given seeds managed by the tribe, the total number is hundreds of thousands.

According to the minimum standard arrangement of a force plant covering an area of ​​1 square kilometer, it would also require the territory of four districts to fully settle.

…

White Eucalyptus star system, Blue Eucalyptus star, South 3289 area.

The Tianqing cruised along the mountain road and finally stopped at the earth and stone square at the foot of Heisong Mountain, the high-rise settlement of the Longbei Dianjia tribe.

Immediately, the spiritual power of the nearby Force plant came over.

"Wow!"

"What a beautiful star spider!"

"This Star Spider looks very strong~"

"Level three?"

"There is no doubt that it is level three! Judging from its body shape and appearance, it is still a type reserved for private insects."

"Huh--"

"This spider smells familiar, doesn't it?"

"Wake up! Everyone wake up!"

"Wake up! Wake up!"

"A Flame Spider Traveler is visiting!"

"The powerful Flame Spider Traveler!"

There are force plants that do good deeds in the territory, causing them to vibrate with spiritual power and shout.

The hatch of the Azure opens...

immediately,

Another force plant recognized it.

"Red helmet?"

"Hey, this big spider looks a bit familiar."

"The little praying mantis and the little spider also look very familiar~"

"Baiwei Chamber of Commerce?"

"Queen honey?"

"That's right! The Baiwei Chamber of Commerce that deals in royal honey and divine fruits!"

"Langyu, wake up quickly, Baiwei Chamber of Commerce is here to do business with you."

"Langyu, don't sleep! Get up to pick up the guests..."

…

The sleeping armored warriors on the mountain were awakened in droves.

Langyu's drowsy consciousness quickly returned to clarity. He glanced with his mental power and was slightly startled. He glanced repeatedly and was startled again.

——Level 3 Star Spider!

——The size is a bit small.

——But it’s worth tens of billions, right?

——Good guy!

——When we first met, I thought this spider named Bai Wei was powerful.

——As expected, it looks like it is developing very well!

Langyu hesitated for a moment, then the carapace thunder element burst out, and his body turned into a blue-violet electric light, flickering and flowing, landing at the foot of the mountain.

"President Bai Wei!"

"Hearts! Poison beans!"

"haven't seen you for a long time!"

"welcome!"

Langyu was full of enthusiasm, erecting two tentacles and swaying left and right to show welcome.

"Chief Langyu! We meet again."

"Chief Langyu, long time no see!"

"You are in the planetary realm? Congratulations! Congratulations!"

We met for a while and exchanged pleasantries.

Langyu asked strangely: "President Bai Wei, the Baijing Galaxy is so big, how did you find it here?"

"Coincidence! Fate! But there is also a certain degree of inevitability."

Bai Wei explained: "In the Phoenix Eye Star Region, there are eight secondary source points. Among them, the Sheep Hoof Star System has the cheapest land rent and is the first choice for many chambers of commerce. Our chamber of commerce has few insects and does not take up space. It follows other powerful large chambers of commerce. Go and get a piece of land for free."

Bai Wei further explained: "We have just arrived in the White Crystal Galaxy. All things have been settled. We went out for a walk, inspected the market, and planned interstellar trade routes. We happened to see your store in the business district."

"oh!"

"In the vast sea of ​​​​stars, if we can meet like this, it seems that we are really destined!"

Langyu echoed with emotion, looking at the star spider behind him.

"Level 3 Star Spider? This thing is not cheap."

"Yes. But it's not outrageous. It's more than 20 billion, bought with a loan."

Bai Wei solemnly said: "We flame spider warriors survive in the universe and travel among the stars, and the star spider is the most important tool. All the assets of our Bai Wei Chamber of Commerce are on this star spider."

Another tribe's armored warriors woke up and went down the mountain to check.

Bai Wei knows some.

Some don't know.

There was another wave of greetings, introductions, and pleasantries.

Without exception, they are all attracted by the small, exquisite and beautiful Tianqing number.

Entering the starry sky, star spiders and starships are indispensable transportation vehicles. Not only flame spiders, but other Zerg warriors also rely on them and are equally interested in them.

Bai Wei continued to introduce: "The standard specification is type 3-1-7042. It is designed and manufactured by Luoji Chamber of Commerce. The sales model is [Tianqing 42]. The cabin capacity is relatively small and can carry up to four warriors. The maximum speed is 250 times the speed of light. , it only takes three months to come from the Sheep's Hoof star system..."

Let me introduce it in detail,

A group of insects gathered around again.

The leader of Langyu arranged for the onlookers to hunt and prepare a banquet to entertain the distinguished guests. He led Bai Wei and his entourage up the mountain and continued to talk in detail in the mountainside living room.

"President Bai Wei, when you enter the White Crystal Galaxy, the situation is very different from when you were in your home star and Qiming Star System!"

Langyu put on a solemn tone and said: "First of all, your divine fruit trade, I'm afraid..."

Bai Wei said easily: "It's hard to do anymore. I'll make some on the side."

Langyu asked again: "Then what are your plans now? Trading royal honey?"

"Yes."

Bai Wei: "I plan to purchase god-given force food and make it into royal honey and genetic agents for sale. The profit is slim, but there are many star bugs, so there is no upper limit on the transaction."

"There are two more problems: First, every inhabited star system has a commercial area uniformly opened by the White Crystal Chamber of Commerce. All chambers of commerce can open shops. In the past, people carried goods on their backs and walked around to sell them. The model isn’t working.”

"The second problem is that our Baiwei Chamber of Commerce has too few members and does not support opening stores in a large number of first-level sources."

Bai Wei paused and said: "Based on the above two issues, our Bai Wei Chamber of Commerce has to consider changing its business model. Instead, we should cooperate with those powerful and reliable big forces."

After hearing this, all the leaders of the Longbei Padjia tribe, led by Langyu, raised their tentacles one after another.

Langyu could become the leader of a large tribe with a population of nearly 2,000. He must have had the wisdom of a Chong. He considered this issue as soon as he saw Bai Wei.

Langyu felt hot and asked: "President Bai Wei, how can we cooperate? What do you think of our Longback Pad Armor tribe?"

Bai Wei: "We just want to cooperate with a big tribe like Longbei Padjia!"

"There are two transactions that we can cooperate with. The first is queen honey; the second is gene agent processing."

"The model is also very simple. You give me the God-given force food. I will process it and make the finished product and deliver it. You will then sell it in the store I operate."

Bai Wei thought about her words and said:

"Queen honey is a unique transaction of our Baiwei Chamber of Commerce. We have also set a unified specification. At the mark level, it is still 1,000 raw crystals/jar; at the star level, it is 10,000 raw crystals/jar; at the star level, it is 100,000 Raw Crystal/Tank.”

"For a jar of 1,000 raw crystals, we package a sufficient amount of queen honey worth 900 raw crystals. In other words, the material cost accounts for 90%. After deducting other various costs, the gross profit is less than 10%."

"Then, we will give you as much queen honey as you sell to us."

"To put it more bluntly, it means exchanging raw materials for finished products."

"Our shipping price is 95% of the selling price, and you have a 5% profit. For example, a jar of queen honey that sells for 1,000 raw crystals on the market, we sell it for 950 raw crystals, and you have a profit of 50 raw crystals."

"If the volume is large, we can sell thousands or tens of thousands of cans every year, and the income will be very considerable."

Bai Wei asked: "Chief Langyu, how many Zerg warriors have settled in the Baiyu star system?"

Langyu: "There are about one to two million resident Zerg warriors, but I estimate that there are still two to three million Zerg warriors who go out to work and earn raw crystals."

Lang Yu said: "According to President Bai Wei's standards, the sales of royal honey will definitely not be a problem. Selling tens of thousands of jars a year will not be a problem. The problem is that the God-given force food used for production is not easy to purchase."

"That's right!"

"You can find ways to acquire as much as possible."

Bai Wei: "How much you earn depends on the abilities of the leaders. I am responsible for processing and supplying."

"Um--"

The leader of Langyu said: "Our Longbei Dianjia tribe has more than 2,400 God-given seeds of various kinds. We can use them all as capital to start the transaction."

Langyu asked again: "President Bai Wei, do you still trade genetic agents? How do you do this?"

Bai Wei: "The gene agent must follow the unified standards prevailing in the Zerg civilization. Star Realm costs 100,000 per tube; Su Realm costs 1 million per tube. The material cost for each tube is also 90% of the prevailing price."

Langyu: "For example, if the price is 100,000 yuan, how many raw crystals will you give us? Or is it 95% of the selling price, 95,000 raw crystals?"

Bai Wei: "Yes."

Langyu was puzzled and asked: "Processing loss is about 3%? The metal tube for packaging has a fixed price of 2,000 raw crystals, 2% of the cost. Isn't there no profit? Or even a loss? Or is there any other explanation?"

"Our gene agent is slightly different. It is not refined with technological equipment, but uses a 'refining' ability similar to that used to make queen honey. The processing loss is smaller, and we make the difference."

Bai Wei said, the space in front of her swayed, and five silver-white metal tubes flew out, falling towards Langyu and the four leaders next to them respectively.

Open it and look at it. Inside are light blue crystal beads. The original energy is highly compressed and condensed.

From an induction point of view, it is more stable and more durable than those processed by technological equipment.

"I see……"

Langyu commented: "The original power is more pure and of better quality. However, President Bai Wei, compared with the manufacturing of technological equipment, the advantages are not obvious, right? It does not have the distinctive characteristics of queen honey. Moreover, for you In other words, the profit is not as good as that of queen honey.”

"That's right."

Bai Wei explained: "The disadvantage of queen honey is that it cannot be stored for too long and can only be positioned as a 'delicious daily necessities'. The demand is ultimately limited. The starry sky is vast, life in the Force grows and evolves, and genetic agents are the mainstream."

"There is an upper limit on the trading of royal honey, but there is no upper limit on genetic agents. Moreover, the trading of royal honey will create a reputation, and it can also drive the sales of genetic agents."

Langyu thought about it and slowly moved his tentacles in agreement.

Bai Wei: "Chief Langyu, you use technology to create things and process them yourself, and the profit is 5%. If you leave it to us for processing, the profit is also 5%. It saves trouble..."

"no problem!"

Langyu readily agreed and asked: "President Bai Wei, what about the genetic agent transaction at the Sujing level?"

"I'm afraid this is something we won't consider until a hundred thousand years later..."

"But, of course, we can continue to cooperate. It's better to explain it in advance."

Bai Wei: "The gene agent at the Sujing level is 1 million/piece. It is produced with scientific and technological equipment. The profit is less than 7%. If you leave it to us, we will give you a full 7% profit. In other words, after we process it, 930,000 raw crystals/expense .”

"Good!"

Langyu moved his tentacles in recognition.

Bai Wei continued: "There is one more problem. Queen honey and genetic agents are produced by our Baiwei Chamber of Commerce and the Pandan Chamber of Commerce. We also cooperated to register a 'Tree Flower' logo."

"The chambers of commerce that cooperate with us, whether it is raw honey or genetic agents, must have a 'Tree Flower' logo. In addition, all stores that cooperate with us also need to have a 'Tree Flower' logo, and it must be eye-catching."

Bai Wei then explained: "Business trade requires credibility and strength. We are all small chambers of commerce that have just started to develop. Compared with those seventh- and eighth-level chambers of commerce and fifth- and sixth-level chambers of commerce, we have neither credibility nor strength."

"To put it bluntly, no matter how famous or majestic everyone is in the Qiming Star System on their home planet, when they arrive in the White Crystal Galaxy, they are just mediocre and unknown members of the vast sea of ​​insects, thrown into the streets of the business district. , No insect knows it, no insect would take a second look.”

"So, I thought that I would take the lead in connecting chambers of commerce with a certain scale and strength, such as the Longback Pad Armor Tribe, to form a large influence covering the Pad Armor star system and the surrounding first-level source points. '."

"To be more specific, if you want to join and use the 'Tree Flower' logo, the minimum requirement is that the total income earned by all members of the Chamber of Commerce through divine-grade God-given seeds and ordinary God-given seeds cannot be less than 5 million raw crystals each year. .”

"The strong alliance, everyone cooperates, makes some reputation, and everyone benefits together."

"Now we are doing the royal honey and gene agent business together. If it gets bigger in the future, we can also use the name of 'Shuhua' to do other things together and we can all make a fortune together."

"Absolutely understand!"

Lang Yu praised: "President Bai Wei is a spider who does great things. If he dares to think and do, he can make a fortune wherever he goes."

Lang Yu then asked: "Besides queen honey and genetic agents, is there anything else that is relatively easy that we can do?"

Bai Wei: "First of all, it must be all kinds of work around the Origin, including the search for the Origin, the construction, development and operation of the Origin star system."

Bai Wei: "Currently, our strength is limited to development and operation. However, leasing source points is too expensive. I was thinking about whether we could raise raw crystals together, rent source points together, transform operations, and produce gods." Give the seeds and take them directly to auction, or sell them internally."

"The large amount of raw crystals exchanged can be divided proportionally. Or we can continue to rent source points, continue development and operation, and snowball like a snowball, getting bigger and bigger."

"good idea!"

Langyu praised her habitually and hesitated: "Many ethnic groups and forces work together to operate? This can easily lead to disputes, right?"

Bai Wei: "You can still play like this. Let's work together to establish a 'Shuhua Chamber of Commerce' and contribute proportionally. For example, if we raise 100 billion in the initial stage, our Baiwei Chamber of Commerce will contribute 10 billion, and the Pandan Chamber of Commerce will contribute 10 billion. You The Pad Armor Chamber of Commerce will invest 10 billion and find a few more powerful chambers of commerce to invest together and hold shares according to the proportion of investment. Each of them will send a reliable and smart insect to join the 'Shuhua Chamber of Commerce' to jointly manage the chamber of commerce and decide the size of the chamber of commerce. Affairs.”

Bai Wei: "10 billion can't do anything big, but 100 billion can. You can rent zero-level source points and buy various technological artifacts. Then, for land reclamation and management, everyone negotiates and coordinates internally, trains soldiers, and hires corresponding Capable warriors work and are paid."

Lang Yuning focused on moving her tentacles, then shook her tentacles, and said: "It can be foreseen that when the interests are great, various internal conflicts will inevitably arise. With all due respect, President Bai Wei, I'm afraid you do not have the absolute authority to coordinate conflicts. and strength.”

Langyu followed up and said: "This is what I have learned from serving as the leader of the Longbei Dianjia tribe for 40,000 years. There are too many insects, and various conflicts of interest within the tribe and between fellow tribesmen give me a splitting headache."

Langyu raised his paw without politeness, and one by one, he clicked on the top management of the Longback Pad Armor tribe on the left and right sides, and said:

"They all have their own bugs, and the tribe is divided into various hills and groups. Every time resources are allocated, there will be fierce arguments and disputes."

"..."

The leaders were slightly embarrassed.

Lang Yu: "This is the case within the same race. President Bai Wei, think about it, why don't we just start a fight between different races?"

Bai Wei: "Civilization is to continue to develop upward while facing and solving problems, arising and resolving contradictions."

Langyu shook his tentacles and said: "We, the Longback Pad Armor Tribe, are not good at and don't like fighting."

"..."

Bai Wei was speechless.

Didn’t you just say that? Is there a lot of internal fighting within the same clan?

"All right--"

Bai Wei said: "This is my idea. Nowadays, no one has the financial resources and ability to implement it. It will not be too late to consider it in detail in the future."

Bai Wei skipped the topic and continued: "As for the transaction of royal honey and genetic agents, Chief Langyu, there are still many details we need to discuss."

"My idea is to establish an interstellar trade path between the secondary source point Sheep's Hoof star system and the 1.8-level source point Xiang Huo star system. Drive a third-level star spider and follow the interstellar trade route between the two points. Wandering back and forth..."

As Bai Wei spoke, she suddenly changed the subject and asked: "Chief Langyu, you should be in great need of some life-extending magic products, right? Not to mention that every warrior should eat them, but those insects who are often active and deal with tribal management affairs should Eat one to compensate for the loss of life span."

"President Bai Wei, do you have a channel to exchange for the divine longevity product?"

Speaking of this, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became lively again, and the leaders of the Longback Pad Armor tribe asked:

“What is the life extension effect?”

"How many can you get?"

"What's the price?"

"We really need the life-extending magic product. We old guys usually don't dare to move."

"But when the planetary realm begins, extending life is very troublesome~"

Bai Wei explained: "The divine longevity fruit, as the name suggests, can extend your life span for ten thousand years. The effect goes deep into the soul level and has effects on planets, stars and realms."

"The flower and fruit cycle lasts for 33 years. Each batch produces 5 pieces, and the market price of a single piece is 4 million. I can make the exchange and exchange it for the divine pine nut. One for two, but I still need to compensate for the divine crystal worth 1 million. Give food to the Force..." (End of Chapter)
