Natural God's Gift
#142 - The value of the divine spider king silk roll
After the five Flame Spider lords finished their discussion, they departed, leaving only the two lords from the original Flame Spider tribe and Four-Leaf on the mountaintop.
The Ginkgo Lord looked kindly at Four-Leaf on the Maple Lord's back: "Four-Leaf, has the Lucky Clover produced any fruit yet?"
Four-Leaf swayed its antennae: "The flowers are still blooming. I don't know when they will bear fruit. I asked Lucky, but it doesn't know either."
"Alright," the Ginkgo Lord said, merely asking as a matter of routine, not really expecting anything. The flowers bloomed in spring,
and they were still blooming in summer and autumn. How could they possibly bear fruit in winter?
They had consulted the Divine-grade Fruit Compendium and inquired with the Sea Soul Cedar's Divine-Bestowed Seed, but neither had heard of such a situation. The Ginkgo Lord had a feeling that the Divine-grade Fruit from the Lucky Clover would be extraordinary.
However, this was not the time to discuss this. The Ginkgo Lord turned to the main topic: "Four-Leaf, Maple has already told you about the matter, right?"
Four-Leaf: "Yes, the Ginkgo Lord. I'll follow your arrangements."
"Mm," the Ginkgo Lord gently nodded its antennae. Four-Leaf was a very well-behaved spider, saving them a lot of worry.
The Maple Lord: "Ginkgo, when will we start making the Spider King Silk Scrolls?"
The Ginkgo Lord: "We'll start making them as soon as we get down the mountain. It's been a long time since the kingdom has made any Spider King Silk Scrolls. I want to compare it to a past sample."
"Mm, I'll go with you."
Four-Leaf stood on the Maple Lord's carapace, also very curious about the Spider King Silk Scrolls. These were recorded in the Zerg warriors' inherited memories, but it had never seen one before.
In the past, the Purple Cloud Mountain Master had traded a Spider Silk Scroll for a Venus Flytrap Divine-Bestowed Seed with the Blood Vine Lord, but that was a Spider Silk Contract, not a Spider King Silk Scroll that could be used as currency.
The three spiders went to the administrative hall, and the Ginkgo Lord retrieved a Spider King Silk Scroll left by a former Spider King for reference. They went to weave the Spider King Silk Scroll under the Sea Soul Cedar Divine-Bestowed Seed.
Under the Sea Soul Cedar Divine-Bestowed Seed, the Ginkgo Lord asked the Sea Soul Cedar what to pay attention to when making Spider King Silk Scrolls.
As an old tree that had lived for tens of thousands of years, countless Spider Kings had made Spider King Silk Scrolls under its branches.
The Sea Soul Cedar was very clear about how to make Spider King Silk Scrolls.
The Sea Soul Cedar emitted a calm mental wave: "Ginkgo, you're not a Spider King yet. Why do you want to make Spider King Silk Scrolls so early?"
The Ginkgo Lord: "We've acquired too many Divine-Bestowed Seeds recently. Some are very valuable. Even if spread out over five hundred years, we still need to pay for over a hundred thousand worth of Primal Force food each year.
Moreover, many Primal Force warriors are still young and can't eat that much Primal Force food. By making them into Divine-Bestowed Spider King Silk Scrolls, they can accumulate them for future use."
"Good idea."
The Sea Soul Cedar said: "Making Spider King Silk Scrolls is quite cumbersome. Divine-Bestowed Spider King Silk Scrolls also need to add the Primal Energy of the Divine-Bestowed Seed. You make it, and I'll assist you."
"Okay," the Ginkgo Lord took out the old Spider King Silk Scroll and spread it on the ground, copying the new Spider King Silk Scroll from the old one.
With the Spider King Silk Scroll spread on the ground, Four-Leaf leaned over to look. It had heard the Maple Lord say before that Spider King Silk Scrolls were woven by spiders of noble status in the kingdom and were divided into two denominations: ten thousand Primal Stones and one thousand Primal Stones.
It had originally thought they were just randomly woven silk.
The numbers simply represented the number of Primal Stones.
It didn't expect it to be so different from what it had imagined.
The Spider Silk Scroll on the ground opened, presenting a square Spider Silk Scroll about fifty centimeters in size.
The edges of the Spider King Silk Scroll had ten-colored patterns, representing ten series. At the top of the Spider King Silk Scroll were two lines of Flame Spider Kingdom characters.
The first line of words was 'Flame Spider Kingdom Guarantees Issuance'.
The second line of words was 'This scroll can be exchanged for any Divine-Bestowed Primal Force food of equal value'.
Below these two lines of words, an earth-yellow Great Flame Spider pattern was printed in the center of the Spider King Silk Scroll, and then a purple-gold number 10000 covered the Great Flame Spider pattern.
Several lines of text were drawn in the lower left corner of the pattern.
The first line was Spider King Silk Scroll number 250000.
The second line was the issue date, 16500 years.
The third line was the circulation year, with the words '16500-17000, circulating for five hundred years' drawn.
In the lower right corner of the pattern was a slightly smaller Sea Soul Cedar pattern, only five or six centimeters in size, with a small number 10000 covering the pattern, and a line of words below the pattern 'Soul-type Divine-Bestowed Seed Guarantee'.
At the very bottom was a line of small print: 'Spider King Silk Scrolls with extensive damage or missing parts will not be exchanged'.
This posed a slight risk to Zerg warriors holding the Spider King Silk Scroll, but the Spider Silk Scroll was invulnerable to water and fire. As long as it wasn't deliberately damaged and was properly preserved, it would basically not be damaged.
Looking at so many patterns on the Spider King Silk Scroll, Four-Leaf exclaimed: "It's so complicated."
They usually made Spider Silk pouches, at most drawing a grass or a leaf. Why would they need so many patterns?
The Maple Lord said: "The Spider King Silk Scroll has a back as well as a front. This is a great test of a spider's weaving skills."
Four-Leaf couldn't imagine that weaving such a complicated pattern on a thin piece of Spider Silk was already amazing, and they still had to weave the back. No wonder the Spider King had to weave it; perhaps only the Great Spider had the skill to do this?
The Ginkgo Lord weaved according to the old Spider King Silk Scroll. There were too many patterns, and it was difficult for it to weave. Spider Silk was sticky, and once it stuck together, it couldn't be taken apart. If it wasn't woven well, the entire Spider King Silk Scroll would be ruined, so it weaved very carefully.
Referring to the previous Spider King Silk Scroll, some places had fixed styles that could be directly copied, such as the text and patterns.
Some places had to be changed, such as changing the number to 010000, the time to 00200 years, and the circulation time to 00200-00700 years, a circulation time of five hundred years.
Just as the Ginkgo Lord was almost finished weaving the front, leaving the original Sea Soul Cedar pattern blank, Four-Leaf was wondering when a point of pure Soul-type Primal Energy suddenly gathered on the Sea Soul Cedar Divine-Bestowed Seed tree and directly hit the blank space, imprinting a dawn redwood pattern with Soul-type Primal Energy, and then the Ginkgo Lord wove a 10000 number over the pattern to cover it.
Before Four-Leaf could ask, as if knowing what it was thinking, the Maple Lord immediately explained to it: "The number and imprint of the Primal Energy of the Divine-Bestowed Seed on the Spider King Silk Scroll mean that our kingdom has the strength to pay for Primal Force food and is not randomly making them."
Four-Leaf:
"If we don't weave the numbers and imprint the Primal Energy," the Maple Lord chuckled, "wouldn't we be able to make as many Spider King Silk Scrolls as we want? The other Zerg warriors wouldn't buy it."
Four-Leaf: "Aren't they afraid that we'll repeat the numbers or make a lot of large-numbered Spider King Silk Scrolls?"
The Maple Lord: "Spider King Silk Scrolls aren't just used by our Flame Spider merchants. Sometimes there are large transactions between races that also use them. If duplicate numbers are discovered, the Flame Spider's reputation will be ruined.
Who would dare to do that when it concerns the Flame Spider's reputation of hundreds of millions of years?
As for the numbers constantly increasing, that's also impossible. There are constraints."
While they were chatting, the front side was already finished. Lord Ginkgo began to work on the back, turning over the old Spider Queen silk scroll. It was covered with dense writing.
With her extraordinary eyesight, Fourleaf could barely make out the contents. They were arranged in tables, filled with tiny words listing various Origin Power foods and their grades.
She guessed that these were probably the kingdom's various externally sold Origin Power foods from the past. However, it didn't seem to indicate which were God-given Origin Power foods and which were ordinary ones.
Presumably, Lord Ginkgo would also weave based on the Origin Power foods they currently possessed, but what was woven into the Spider Queen silk scroll would definitely not be limited to the kingdom's production.
The Origin Power foods that had fixed transactions with the Flame Spider Merchants in the Myriad Races Continent should also be woven in. Otherwise, no matter how wealthy the Flame Spider Kingdom was, it wouldn't be able to supply all the Origin Power warriors on the continent.
However, Fourleaf didn't need to worry about these things. She would just watch Lord Ginkgo weave.
Lord Ginkgo took a long time to weave one scroll. Fortunately, with the experience from the first one, the speed of weaving the second and third scrolls increased significantly. It only stopped after weaving ten scrolls.
Seeing how difficult it was to weave a Spider Silk Scroll, Fourleaf's teeth ached as she watched: "This is too troublesome, isn't it?"
"Troublesome?" Lord Ginkgo stopped weaving to rest. Hearing Fourleaf's words, it educated her: "Every line of text and every pattern on the Spider Queen silk scroll represents our kingdom's credibility and attitude.
Even the prices of the Origin Power foods on the back are valuable references. Each change in the price of Origin Power foods can potentially determine the evolution direction of the insect warriors.
For other tribes, it may take months or even years to weave a Spider Queen silk scroll, but we can weave it in just a few hours.
If we all treat the Spider Queen silk scroll casually, would other insect warriors think it has value?
If we want the Spider Queen silk scroll to gain the trust of the insect warriors and be collected with peace of mind, we must pay attention to every detail."
"Oh," Fourleaf nodded her antennae, seemingly understanding.
At this moment, Lord Ginkgo turned to Lord Green Maple and said, "Green Maple, you've been watching for so long, you should know how to make the Spider Queen silk scroll, right?
You make the God-given Spider Queen silk scrolls with a denomination of one thousand, and I will make the God-given Spider Queen silk scrolls with a denomination of ten thousand and the Divine-grade Spider Queen silk scrolls."
"Okay!" Lord Green Maple had been eager to try for a long time. It let Fourleaf get off its carapace and began to make the Spider Queen silk scrolls with a denomination of one thousand.
Lord Green Maple asked, "How many Spider Queen silk scrolls with a denomination of one thousand should we make?"
Lord Ginkgo thought for a moment and said, "According to the previous practice, the number of Spider Queen silk scrolls woven each year can only be half of the output of the God-given species.
The annual output of the Sea Soul Fir God-given species is one hundred units of Origin Stone's worth of God-given Origin Power food. We can make Spider Queen silk scrolls worth five hundred thousand Origin Stones.
But currently, no one can afford such high consumption. Just make fifty scrolls."
According to the standard of an annual output of one million, they could make Spider Queen silk scrolls to replace five hundred thousand Origin Stones.
However, based on the needs of commercial circulation, the two types of Spider Queen silk scrolls needed to be divided in half. They could make twenty-five scrolls with a denomination of ten thousand and two hundred and fifty scrolls with a denomination of one thousand.
But this still depended on the consumption ability of the insect warriors on the Myriad Races Continent.
"As you say."
The Spider Queen silk scroll with a denomination of one thousand was a little smaller than the one with a denomination of ten thousand, only thirty centimeters square. The overall appearance was similar to the one with a denomination of ten thousand, but with slight differences. The serial number of the Spider Queen silk scroll with a denomination of one thousand started with 000001, and the one with a denomination of ten thousand started at the end, perfectly symmetrical.
The two lords kept weaving the Spider Queen silk scrolls. The Sea Soul Fir God-given species occasionally injected a stream of Soul-type Origin Power into the silk scrolls. Only Fourleaf was bored and dozing off in place.
Lord Ginkgo stopped weaving after weaving twenty God-given Spider Queen silk scrolls with a denomination of ten thousand. These two hundred thousand, plus the fifty God-given Spider Queen silk scrolls with a denomination of one thousand that Lord Green Maple still had to weave, added up to two hundred and fifty thousand.
In this Origin Power reincarnation period, the Spider Queen silk scroll was just being piloted, so it shouldn't sell too much. These should be enough, and even if they weren't, they could weave more next year.
After weaving the God-given Spider Queen silk scrolls, Lord Ginkgo began to weave the Divine-grade Spider Queen silk scrolls. The text at the top of the Divine-grade Spider Queen silk scrolls was different.
The first line, 'Flame Spider Kingdom Guarantees Issuance,' was the same.
The second line of text became, 'This scroll can be exchanged for any item of equal value.'
The change in just a few words had a completely different meaning. This meant that as long as one possessed a Divine-grade Spider Queen silk scroll of sufficient value, one could purchase various treasures within the kingdom, creations of extraterrestrial civilizations, or even Divine-grade fruits and God-given species. As for God-given Origin Power foods and ordinary Origin Power foods, they were even more trivial.
Lord Green Maple also stopped to rest. Seeing that Lord Ginkgo was about to start weaving the Divine-grade Spider Queen silk scrolls, it asked.
Lord Ginkgo carefully calculated and then said, "Everyone knows the value of the Divine-grade Spider Queen silk scrolls. If it weren't for urgent claw problems, everyone probably wouldn't sell them.
The annual interest of Lantern is 12,000 Origin Stones, the interest of Job's Tears is 10,000 Origin Stones, and the interest of Raspberry is 20,000 Origin Stones, for a total of 42,000 Origin Stone silk scrolls.
Logically speaking, weaving four scrolls with a denomination of ten thousand and two scrolls with a denomination of one thousand would be enough, but considering that other lords may also want to buy them, I'll just weave forty-two scrolls with a denomination of one thousand, to facilitate everyone's transactions!"
"Very reasonable." The two spiders chatted for a few sentences and continued to work. There were really too many Spider Queen silk scrolls. They worked from day to night and still hadn't finished. Fourleaf was bored because she had just evolved.
So she lay down under the Sea Soul Fir God-given species tree and quietly took a nap.
It wasn't until the sun rose again the next day that Fourleaf woke up leisurely. After waking up, she found Lord Ginkgo and Lord Green Maple lying on the ground asleep, with a thick layer of Spider Queen silk scrolls neatly placed beside them.
"Finished?" Fourleaf stretched out a claw and rubbed her eight eyes.
The noise she made when she woke up also startled Lord Ginkgo and Lord Green Maple.
Lord Ginkgo placed a Spider Queen silk scroll in front of Fourleaf: "Fourleaf, we've finished our work, now it's your turn."
Fourleaf looked innocently at the Spider Queen silk scroll in front of her: "What should I do?"
Lord Ginkgo pointed to the lower right corner of the front of the Spider Queen silk scroll. The lower right corner of the God-given Spider Queen silk scroll had the Soul-type Origin Power imprint of the Sea Soul Fir, while this place on the Divine-grade Spider Queen silk scroll was blank: "Sew a cloverleaf in this position with your spider silk."
"Okay," she wasn't good at weaving complex patterns, but she was too familiar with sewing cloverleaves.
She slowly sewed her four-leaf clover logo on the silk scroll. After she sewed one, Lord Ginkgo took it and sewed the denomination of 1000 on it.
Fourleaf worked for most of the day before sewing the four-leaf clover logo on all forty to fifty Divine-grade Spider Queen silk scrolls.
And if there were no accidents, she would have to sew a batch of such Spider Queen silk scrolls every year. These were all debts.
She suddenly felt a lot of pressure!
