Astral Cockroach

"Mountain Lord Banbu, based on my understanding of Divine-bestowed seeds, I can confirm that the bamboo rice produced by your Emerald Bamboo Divine-bestowed seed will be of excellent quality."

Chonglou's tone was very confident.

Banbu didn't refute.

It should be noted that the Purple-Gold Divine-bestowed seed divided into 243 sub-plants without using any primal stones, the primal force concentration of Lizhu Peak was just sufficient. The Emerald Bamboo derived 64 underground stems, yet it required the assistance of primal stones, which directly showed that the Emerald Bamboo Divine-bestowed seed was more powerful than the Purple-Gold Divine-bestowed seed.

Tracing back to the source, it was still a problem of plant species, or rather, it was determined by the genes themselves. Bamboo and Xun grass are both herbaceous plants, but bamboo is much, much stronger than Xun grass.

Banbu said, "I can't determine yet how many years it takes to flower and bear seeds."

Chonglou asked, "Mountain Lord Banbu, what bamboo species did the Emerald Bamboo Divine-bestowed seed originally belong to? It doesn't seem like Lizhu bamboo."

Banbu smiled and said, "Mountain Lord Chonglou, this leads to another deal."

Chonglou asked, "What deal? It wouldn't be a new bamboo species, would it?"

Banbu said, "A newly discovered bamboo species that can flower and bear seeds once a year, I named it 'Golden Silk Bamboo'. The Emerald Bamboo Divine-bestowed seed is a hybrid of Golden Silk Bamboo and another bamboo species."

"A new bamboo species that can flower and bear seeds once a year!" Chonglou couldn't help but exclaim, "Mountain Lord Banbu, the favor of the Natural True God towards you is a bit too biased!"

Banbu smiled and said, "Hehe, I think so too."

Chonglou asked, "How many Golden Silk Bamboo are there? What is the scale? How many seeds do you have on hand now? Does it come with some kind of strengthening effect after being nurtured into a Life Seed?"

Banbu said, "I just discovered it last year, there's only one, and its growth condition is very poor, it only produced three seeds. I have already nurtured one of the seeds into a Life Seed and planted it, and the other two ordinary seeds have also been planted, and they are growing very well."

"If there are no accidents, I will be able to collect all kinds of important data this year… However, I will not consider selling it within the next three years."

Chonglou said, "I understand, a wise choice."

Banbu added, "Perhaps I will never sell it."

"Hmm?" Mountain Lord Chonglou was surprised and asked, "Mountain Lord Banbu, do you intend to make this bamboo species a symbolic Life Seed plant of the Jinping Mountains?"

Banbu said, "I have this idea, but not entirely, I will have a definite answer this year."

Mountain Lord Chonglou jumped away from the topic of Golden Silk Bamboo and said, "Mountain Lord Banbu, if the flowering and seeding cycle of the Emerald Bamboo Divine-bestowed seed is within 5 years, that would be a stable and huge income!"

Banbu asked, "Mountain Lord Chonglou, are you interested in ordering? Pay some deposit, and the first year the Emerald Bamboo Divine-bestowed seed flowers and bears seeds, your caravan's needs will be met first."

Mountain Lord Chonglou didn't answer directly, but asked, "Before us, Mountain Lord Huabai came, right? The aura of the Emerald Bamboo Divine-bestowed seed is compatible with their Black and White Flower Roach tribe."

Banbu said, "That's right, they came, saw the Emerald Bamboo Divine-bestowed seed, and had a very strong intention to buy it. They will definitely give a better price than the caravan, but I don't think they are willing to pay a deposit."

"I'm not willing either." Chonglou said, "What if the flowering cycle of the Emerald Bamboo Divine-bestowed seed exceeds 10 years? Wouldn't the deposit be equivalent to paying for nothing?"

Banbu said, "After all, it is a bamboo species, a brand new bamboo species with no precedents to refer to, I can understand."

Chonglou said, "Mountain Lord Banbu, I have a good suggestion, are you interested in hearing it?"

Banbu said, "Please speak!"

Chonglou said, "Right now, we can only determine that the bamboo rice is of good quality, what we can't determine is how many years the flowering and seeding cycle is, right?"

Banbu said, "That's right."

Chonglou asked again, "Mountain Lord Banbu, your development potential is infinite, and you are currently short of primal stones, right?"

Banbu said, "That's right, I'm in urgent need."

Chonglou said, "I can pay a deposit of 1000 primal stones to order the first batch of bamboo rice produced by the Emerald Bamboo Divine-bestowed seed. Let's take 5 years as the deadline, the caravan will pay 1000 primal stones to order, if the Emerald Bamboo Divine-bestowed seed condenses bamboo rice within the 5-year period, we will have priority to buy it. If it cannot condense bamboo rice within the 5-year period, the ordered primal stones will be counted as a loan, and you will have to pay us the corresponding loan interest."

Banbu asked, "How much?"

Chonglou said, "A moderate discount, borrowing 1000 primal stones, returning 2000 primal stones after 5 years."

This loan model is simply charity, okay? It seems that the caravan hasn't learned to offer high-interest loans yet!

"Mountain Lord Chonglou, I will remember your generosity!" Banbu agreed decisively and asked with a smile, "The Emerald Bamboo Divine-bestowed seed is of high quality, can the deposit be higher?"

Chonglou said sincerely, "Mountain Lord Banbu, you should be clear that it is already a very risky behavior for us to pay you a 2000 primal stone deposit in advance. In the Jinping Mountains, fierce beasts run rampant, hiding unknown numbers of beast warriors, and you, excuse me for speaking frankly, are weak, and the possibility of accidents is too great. It should be noted that beast warriors attacking insect warriors' territories happen every year, and are common."

Banbu nodded his antennae and didn't refute.

Previously, the high-level warriors of Iron Saber Peak took turns to patrol, and the switching of different scents scared away the fierce beasts near Lizhu Peak.

Since Fengling moved to Lizhu Peak, the high-level warriors of Iron Saber Peak no longer come to help, and after the beginning of spring, the number of various fierce beasts around Lizhu Peak has obviously increased.

Banbu said, "Mountain Lord Chonglou, please rest assured, during the Purple-Gold Bamboo Rice maturity season, I will invite Mountain Lord Tiedao to come and help guard it, and there will be no accidents."

Mountain Lord Chonglou said, "It is precisely because you have Mountain Lord Tiedao as a backer that I dare to pay the deposit."

After discussing and agreeing on the deposit, Banbu and Mountain Lord Chonglou returned to the south side of the mountain, at this time, Luoshi, Xuemai, and the four Flame Spider warriors had just finished weaving the silk bags.

Fengling had been standing beside them, watching silently. When she received the silk bag, she was overjoyed. Previously, only Mountain Lord Tiedao, Yabai, and Putao had silk bags in Iron Saber Mountain, and she was always envious when she saw them. She didn't expect that she would get one as soon as she moved to Lizhu Peak.

While Fengling was happy, she also felt a little complicated. She was very clear that the itinerant merchants of the Phantom Flame Spider tribe put profit first and never dealt with poor warriors like them. Because Banbu possessed three Divine-bestowed seeds, they gave her one as a gift because of Banbu's face. This was because she benefited from Banbu.

"Banbu, this is for you!"

Xuemai came to Banbu with the silk bag and pointed to the pattern on the silk bag with a grin and said, "This is Banbu, this is Xuemai, we are friends, we will trade every year in the future, right?"

Banbu looked at it. Xuemai had advanced to an intermediate warrior, but her weaving and painting skills had not improved at all. She was still a soul painter. In the pattern, the two crooked insects could only be roughly identified. The one with six legs was a cockroach, and the one with eight legs was a spider.

It's ugly, but it won't affect the use anyway.

Banbu accepted the gift and said with a smile, "Thank you, Xuemai! We are friends, and we will trade every year in the future."

Chonglou said, "Xuemai, there is a transaction now, Banbu still needs to choose 1000 primal stones worth of goods."

"Really? That's great!" Xuemai was delighted.

Banbu also asked Fengling, "Fengling, you can choose 100 primal stones worth of goods."

"Ah?!" Fengling stammered and asked, "Banbu, how come there are 1000 primal stones again?"

Banbu said, "The deposit for the first batch of bamboo rice from the Emerald Bamboo Divine-bestowed seed."

Fengling shook her head and scanned back and forth between Banbu and Chonglou, and said worriedly, "It's not certain when the Emerald Bamboo Divine-bestowed seed will condense the first batch of bamboo rice, right? What if…"
