Astral Ant Tribe

(PS: I was careless last night, I’m sorry to all my book friends. Chapter 11 was published, and today’s update is chapter 12)

***

The ants are so powerful that it took more than twenty days to dig out a large pond for Molan's divine Gorgon seeds to take root.

On the top of the hillside, a reservoir with a side length of about 6 meters has also been dug.

Several water diversion canals were dug horizontally, and the water would be filled with water only after two or three spring rains.

The number of specialized chemical worker ants has reached 300.

In the ant nest, newly cultivated large and medium-sized worker ants are born one after another.

Cypress cypress and juniper cypress began to direct the ant colony to dig at the mouth of the valley. They first dug a ditch to redirect the river, and then dug deeper. They needed to dig out a ditch of more than 50 meters in length, 8 meters in width, and 2 to 3 meters in depth. The dam foundation is a huge project.

The wood cut down last year to clear up land for planting silver cypress has been used as material for building embankments, and the quantity is definitely not enough.

Long Bai took the time to search around the mountain, cut the main trunk sieve tubes, and killed a batch of trees first, and then dried them in the sun in the summer. Then they could be cut down and transported directly.

Building a dike also requires the most important material: stones.

If there is no hunting in the spring, the junipers cannot be idle.

Are soldier ants capable of collecting rocks?

Long Bai summoned Juniper and its 150 specialized soldier ants, 30 large soldier ants, and 30 medium-sized soldier ants.

In front of Long Cypress, various samples of large stones, small stones, gray-white, earthy yellow, dark brown, etc. are arranged in rows.

Juniper formed a formation for the soldier ants. A small group of 10 came forward one by one to learn how to identify them.

Long Bai kept repeating the signal: "Go to the mountains and forests to collect these stones and bring them back. No matter the size or shape, bring back those that can be moved."

A small team of 10 animals, after a brief training, Juniper urged them into the forest to look for them.

The soldier ants set off one after another, and soon came back one after another.

Juniper kept shaking its tentacles, ordered the soldier ants to pile up the stones brought back, and then set off into the forest in a small group of 10 to continue searching.

The worker ants and soldier ants cultivated by the Dominion Throne are obviously much more spiritual. Most of the soldier ants were able to return with the stones in their mouths correctly. Only a few were stupid and ran back with the prey. However, they found that the ant king asked for stones instead of food. They quickly threw them away, picked up a piece of soil from the ground, and pretended He was not discovered and slipped through.

The soldier ants were more obedient and disciplined. They repeated it twice without making any mistakes.

There are a lot of large and small gravels in the mountains, and soldier ants can take on part of the stone collection work.

…

There is endless work to do, and time flies by.

It’s that time of year again when flowers bloom all over the mountains and traveling merchants arrive.

Long Bai calculated the time, packed his things, took Mo Lan and set off in a hurry.

The goods sold to the caravan this year are still simple, 60 azure seeds and 200 pandan seeds.

"Long Bai, do you want to tell Bai Wei about the god-given seed of Gorgon Fruit?"

"Don't tell Bai Wei yet! Let's tell Luo Ji first next year. Moreover, we can't tell them that there are two trees. My idea is that Molan, your God-given Gorgon seed is circulating in Yunji Continent, and my God-given Gorgon seed is circulating in the Yunji Continent. The seeds produced by the seeds are sold to caravans."

"oh--"

Mo Lan: "So, to Ghost Fan, Red Fox, White Rice, and Mountain Persimmon, I only tell them about the God-given seed of Gorgon Fruit."

Long Bai: "Smart!"

Mo Lan: "Don't tell Bai Wei? Then shall we still borrow money from it this year?"

Long Bai: "Borrow."

Mo Lan: "Do you want to borrow money to buy a metal can?"

Long Bai: "That's not valuable. I mainly buy Force food."

Mo Lan thought for two seconds and said: "We already have enough trading capital, a rich variety of goods, and enough food for evolution and growth. Why do we need to borrow money to buy it? We have to pay interest."

Dragon Bar: "Borrow an appropriate amount and enrich the types of goods. In addition, it is also necessary to appropriately allocate force food to juniper, juniper, and giant cypress, at least to ensure that they can complete one stage of evolution every year. Conditions permitting, every year Two instars evolve best.”

"Oh~ yes!"

Mo Lan skipped the topic and reminded: "The spider silk bag is not enough."

Long Bai: "Please ask for more."

Mo Lan: "Then you ask Bai Wei for 10!"

Long Bai: "..."

Mo Lan smiled happily, thought for a while, and said as if chatting with nothing:

"Long Bai, there is a question that I have never been able to figure out... You see, we only have four trading partners: ghost fan, red fox, white rice, and mountain persimmon. The force food we earn is enough for us to grow and evolve. Wanzu There are millions or tens of millions of Zerg warriors on the mainland. In such a rich place, why is Bai Wei so poor?"

Long Bai thought for a moment, considered his words, and said: "There are many reasons, but I will only tell you the two most important points."

"First of all, the Flame Spider Travelers are divided into five tribes, namely, the Round Purple Flame Spider, the Symphony Flame Spider, the Purple Flame Spider, the Watase Flame Spider, and the White-legged Flame Spider. There are many Zerg tribes in Wanzu Continent, but the Flame Spider Travelers There are also quite a few. We have only come into contact with the Watase Flame Spider tribe."

"Traveling merchants pursue profits. If a place is rich, a large number of traveling merchants will immediately flock to it. If a tribe is rich, there will be many caravans who want to enter it and take a share of the profits. However, those who can finally obtain stable trading rights, It must be those large caravans with strength. More caravans without strength can only go to places with few insect populations and poor force power."

Mo Lan asked: "Is Bai Wei... the kind of traveling trader who can only go to barren areas and trade with poor Zerg warriors?"

Long Bai: "Absolutely. It works with Luo Li and sometimes trades with Luo Li's customers. Luo Li will pay it a certain amount of money."

Mo Lan asked: "What about the second reason?"

Long Bai said: "Over there in the Wanzu Continent, various tribes live together, and there are also interactions between tribes. Between the same tribe and the same tribe, and between tribes, they can trade with each other and exchange what they have. The Zerg warriors in the Wanzu Continent The reliance on flame spider merchants is much lower than that of Cloud Trail Continent. Each Zerg warrior needs to find relatively little force food to sell and buy from caravans every year."

It’s not difficult to understand~ Mo Lan: “That’s it!”

…

…

…

Bai Wei jumped in line and followed closely behind the Zeqi Spider King into the flat square under the hill.

The Zeqi Spider King found a good position, spit out the life seed, and took root on the ground.

Bai Wei quickly moved her position and spit out the life seed.

"Zeqi Spider King, can I go trade?"

This time, Bai Wei learned the lesson and didn't run away in a hurry. She asked the Zeqi Spider King first.

"Bai Wei, don't be impatient..."

As if deliberately, the Zeqi Spider King paused for a while and said slowly:

"Last year, I heard Luo Li complain that the little ant king named Long Bai was getting more and more cunning. I think it is necessary to tell you the details of the travel business transaction in detail."

"No need. Luo Li told me a hundred and one times before coming here. I remember it all."

Bai Wei turned around and left.

I walked to the foot of the hill, climbed up the hill at a faster pace, and ran to the grove where the trade was done the year before.

"Cymbidium!"

"Xiao Longbai?"

"Wow, is that the force food produced by your 'Azure God-given Seed'? Blue seeds? What type of strengthening effect?"

After all, at the mountain master level, Bai Wei used the flame spider's special induction of the spider silk bag to detect the contents of the bag Mo Lan was carrying from a long distance away.

"The quantity is a bit small."

Bai Wei muttered, and before waiting for Long Bai's answer, she asked again: "Last year's fruits were ripe? Then your azure god-given seeds should bloom, right? How many flowers have bloomed and how many fruits have hung this time?"

Long Bai was speechless and choked for a while, then replied methodically: "The blue god-given seeds produce extremely delicious berries, which are different from any other fruit on land. The pulp was eaten by Mo Lan and me. , only 60 blue seeds are left."

"The strengthening effect is consistent with previous speculation, which is the strengthening of the comprehensive water element ability."

"It's not blooming yet this year. It's blooming in early summer."

Long Bai finished.

Mo Lan helpfully added: "Long Bai is now the intermediate ant king, but Zhan Lanzi's force content and quality are already equivalent to high-level! A super-grade god-given seed from the ocean!"

Bai Wei: "!!!"

Super product!

It's finally my turn to get rich!

Bai Wei was ecstatic and said: "Quick! Let me see!"
