Natural God's Gift
#271 - Trading share arrangement
"It's good that you have plans." Mountain Master Xuanyu only mentioned it casually and didn't force Siyue to train younger generations.
"Well, Xuanyu, I'll leave Yacong in your care. I'm going to report the results of my territory inspection to Lord Qingfeng."
"Alright!"
Saying goodbye to Mountain Master Xuanyu, Siyue headed to Lord Qingfeng's territory.
Lord Qingfeng was very busy at the beginning and end of the year. Flame Spider merchants returning from expeditions almost had to queue up to report on various matters.
Even though Flame Spider warriors at the Lord level and above went to Ginkgo Lord to handle matters, and Flame Spider warriors at the Mountain Master level and above went to the Kingdom Treasury to exchange for Origin Force food, he was still swamped.
The kingdom simply had too many high-level Flame Spiders now. The Flame Spider warriors had a sufficient supply of Origin Force food to grow, and they could generally advance to high-level Flame Spiders in about 10 years.
The time it took to advance from the high-level stage to the Mountain Master level was longer, ranging from ten to twenty years for some, to thirty to forty years for others. This led to a large number of high-level Flame Spider warriors accumulating across all age groups.
The kingdom currently had over four hundred Flame Spider warriors, and high-level Flame Spiders accounted for half of them, which made Lord Qingfeng very busy at the end of the year.
Seeing how busy he was, Siyue didn't disturb him too much, and reported the results of his inspection of the kingdom's territory.
He also marked the territories he had inspected on a map.
He also took the lineage of Flame Spiders that had been brought back by the Ziyun Merchant Guild with him from Lord Qingfeng back to his Twin Peaks.
When he returned to Twin Peaks, Danggui was leading the Flame Spider warriors to work. After so many years of planting, the durian and banana trees in the Twin Peaks territory had formed a vast garden.
Every September, they would harvest durians in a concentrated effort, selecting all the seeds from the durians. The high-quality seeds would be kept for planting, while the low-quality seeds and pulp would be used to feed the pigs.
Bananas were harvested in November. Because they would remove the pistils during the flowering period of the bananas, these bananas would not produce seeds. They didn't have to go through the same trouble as with durians, having to open each banana and pick out the seeds.
Danggui led the Flame Spider warriors to cut down bunches of bananas from the forest, and then specialized spiders would transport these bananas to the storage warehouse.
The banana trees also had to be cut down and stored well, as they were excellent food for pigs and fish.
Seeing Siyue return, Danggui flew to Siyue and said, "Siyue, you're finally back."
It looked at the densely packed small Flame Spiders on Siyue's carapace, thoughtfully, "Are you planning to train younger generations?"
"Yes," Siyue responded by tapping its antennae. It tapped the ground with its front leg, using the Flame Spider's unique communication method to notify the small Flame Spiders on its carapace, "Come down!"
The small Flame Spiders crawled down Siyue's eight spider legs and quickly scattered into the woodland.
Seeing the small Flame Spiders disappear into the jungle, Danggui asked doubtfully, "Siyue, do these small Flame Spiders not need special care?"
Siyue: "No, there are no animals in the territory that can harm them, and there aren't many of them now. The other Flame Spider warriors can give them some leftovers when they eat."
Now that there were only a few small Flame Spiders, scattered across such a vast territory, as long as they weren't too stupid, they could catch food themselves. Anyway, the forest was full of various insects.
"I've been away from the territory for so long, has anything else happened in the territory?"
Danggui recalled: "Nothing unexpected has happened. Moreover, I also purchased two water carts from Boss Xiaoji, according to your instructions before you left, and placed them near the volcanic lake. It was a bit dry in the summer, and the two water carts played a significant role."
"That's not bad." Siyue was also a little surprised, not expecting the water carts to be so effective so quickly.
Danggui reported various matters to Siyue: "Should we dig a few more storage warehouses on the mountain?"
"Storage warehouses?"
Danggui: "Our current storage warehouse is a bit small. The bananas and banana tree trunks that are cut down every year are almost full. These are all food for pigs and fish."
"Then build a few more storage warehouses."
Siyue: "Have any banana seeds been saved?"
Danggui: "Most of the bananas had their pistils cut off when they were flowering, leaving only a small portion uncut. We have picked out the seeds from these bananas that have been left to seed."
Siyue instructed: "Keep the plump seeds and destroy the dry seeds."
"We know," After so many years, they were used to these tasks.
"Also, at the beginning of this year, we went to Yinmei Continent to trade..."
Danggui reported all the matters in the territory to Siyue, so that Siyue had a general understanding of the affairs in the territory.
In the following time, Siyue stayed at Twin Peaks and did not go out. On a small peak not far from the hillside woodland, it hollowed out the entire hilltop with its Swamp Submersion ability and hardened it with its soil solidification ability, creating a large storage warehouse.
In addition, it also created a rather large swamp pool. As long as various collected bird droppings were dropped into the swamp pool,
animal bones, fallen branches and leaves, etc., allowing these decaying substances to volatilize and produce natural fertilizer.
In addition, it also used its Life Irrigation ability to create water containing Life Origin Energy and mixed it in to increase the effect of the swamp water. It even mixed in several squares of fertile soil. It believed that with the fermentation of time, this swamp pool would definitely become the best fertilizer.
Siyue and Danggui were busy for a month, and roughly completed the things that should be completed on Twin Peaks this year. Time also came to the end of November.
Siyue had told the Flame Spider merchants before that it would allocate the trading shares of its God-given Seed production at the end of November this year, so it sent Danggui to notify all the Flame Spider merchant teams with strength.
For other Flame Spider merchants, the trading share of any God-given Seed was very important, let alone that the current Siyue had 17 God-given Life Seeds.
Currently, the entire kingdom, including the wild King-level God-given Seeds, the arboreal wild God-given Seeds, and the Flame Spider God-given Life Seeds,
added up to only about one hundred and thirty God-given Seeds. Siyue alone accounted for more than one-tenth of them.
Moreover, after it advanced to the Mountain Master level, the level of its God-given Life Seed would be raised to the same level as the insectoid warriors.
Mountain Master-level God-given Origin Energy food was already a very good thing in the early stage of Origin Energy Rebirth. Whether it was the high-level stage, the Mountain Master stage, or the Lord stage insectoid warriors, they could all eat this level of God-given Origin Energy food, which made its value even higher.
Even if Siyue's so many God-given Life Seeds could only get a little share, they would be very satisfied.
Flame Spider warriors of at least the Mountain Master level gathered on the earth and stone square at the foot of Twin Peaks. Among the six Flame Spider tribes, none of them were absent.
The reason why they were all Flame Spiders above the Mountain Master level was because of the current environment of the Myriad Races Continent, only Flame Spiders above the Mountain Master level could independently trade.
High-level Flame Spiders can only act together with Mountain Lord-level Flame Spiders of the same lineage. Their trades are also conducted with small tribes along the trade routes, and they don't have much autonomy.
Everyone arrived at the earthen plaza, chatting familiarly with each other. The Flame Spider Kingdom currently has only three or four hundred Flame Spider warriors. In the current stage, only a few dozen can be promoted to Mountain Lord level or higher.
The spiders are all around the same age and quite familiar with each other. Although they all came to compete for a share of the Four-Leaf God-Given Seed trade, the atmosphere wasn't too tense.
Firstly, no matter what, as long as the Kingdom's Six Departments of Flame Spiders need God-Given Origin Power food, the Original Seed Flame Spiders must first allocate 30%-50% of their share to the Kingdom, ensuring the Kingdom has enough to eat first.
Under this basic condition, even if they don't get any God-Given Origin Power food trade share today,
it won't delay their consumption of God-Given Origin Power food.
With this foundation, why would they be anxious?
Secondly, the Kingdom also has more than a hundred God-Given Seeds that produce. If they can't get a trade share here, they can get it from the Kingdom. At most, it'll be more common and ordinary, but it won't affect their merchant foundation.
Thirdly, as mentioned before, Four-Leaf has so many God-Given Seeds that the amount of God-Given Origin Power food produced each year is enormous. It is estimated that none of the trading caravans present can consume so much goods.
As long as they are polite and haven't offended the other party, they should be able to get a little bit of a trade share, right?
“Belamcanda Lord—”
“Raspberry Lord—”
“Plantain Lord—”
“Torilis Lord—”
After some Mountain Lords, the Lords also arrived one after another. Everyone was surprised to find that the vast majority of Lords had also come. Mountain Lords from the same tribe stepped forward to greet them.
“Zi Yun Lord,” When Zi Yun Lord arrived, even more Flame Spider warriors greeted it.
Everyone knew that the Zi Yun Trading Company had the best relationship with Four-Leaf, and it obtained the largest share of God-Given Origin Power food in previous years.
The Zi Yun Trading Company, with the help of several opportunities, rapidly increased the wealth in its claws. The strength of the trading company is not much weaker than those old-brand Lords. It is said that even Four-Leaf's God-Tier Fruits, it has a certain quota among them. No one knows how it managed to do it.
A Flame Spider asked: "Zi Yun Lord, Four-Leaf said it wants to re-plan the trade share of God-Given Origin Power food. You have the best relationship with it. Have you heard any news? How does it plan to allocate the trade share?"
Zi Yun Lord said frankly: "Four-Leaf has been burying its head in evolution these years. I haven't contacted it for a long time. I don't know how it plans to allocate the trade share."
“Uh…” Hearing Zi Yun Lord say this, everyone was a little speechless, and they didn't doubt its words.
Their Flame Spiders are relatively united internally. Deceiving their own kind is equivalent to ruining their own reputation, and everyone doesn't think Zi Yun would deceive them.
Moreover, there is nothing to deceive about this. No matter what, Four-Leaf will definitely say how to allocate the trade share later.
They turned to ask another Lord who had just arrived: "Qing Feng Lord, Four-Leaf grew up under your guidance,
do you know how Four-Leaf plans to allocate the trade share?"
Qing Feng Lord was speechless: "I don't go out to trade. I came here to discuss with it the trade share that belongs to the Kingdom."
Fine, another useless question.
When the Mountain Lord-level and Lord-level Flame Spiders gathered on the plaza at the foot of the mountain, Four-Leaf didn't brazenly make everyone wait in the nest chamber on the mountain.
It asked Dang Gui and the others to catch five or six pigs, kill them, and bring them to the earthen plaza, cutting them into slices for everyone to taste carefully.
It also quickly came down the mountain to entertain everyone.
Everyone ate the meat slices while chatting with Four-Leaf, completely unlike the scene outside where they had to argue with other insect warriors over a single Primal Stone.
“Four-Leaf,” After eating a few pigs, everyone scraped their mouths with their forelegs and began to get to the point: "According to convention, insect warriors are allocated a trade share of Origin Power food after being promoted to Mountain Lord level."
“Since you have more God-Given Life Seeds, everyone wants to know how you plan to allocate the trade share of God-Given Origin Power food?”
Four-Leaf ate a few slices of pork and also sorted out its sensory limbs: "Currently, my Life Seeds haven't produced Origin Power food yet, and I don't know how long it will take to produce after being promoted to Mountain Lord level.
I'm telling everyone in advance to avoid any disputes if I'm not in the Kingdom one day."
Four-Leaf stated its plan: "This is what I'm thinking. Exchange equivalent God-Given Origin Power food for equivalent God-Given Origin Power food."
“For example, my God-Given Sea Date Seeds are Life-type God-Given Origin Power food. If you want to exchange shares, use the same top-tier God-Given Seed, or God-Given Seeds with excellent quality and price, that produce Life-type or Strength-type God-Given Origin Power food to trade."
“My God-Given Morning Glory Seeds are pure Elemental-type God-Given Origin Power food. Just use the Seven Great Elemental-type God-Given Origin Power food to trade.”
Hearing Four-Leaf say this, everyone looked at each other, frowning. This condition was easy and difficult.
Easy, of course, refers to the fact that God-Given Seeds like Morning Glory are not of very high quality and are relatively common. The trading caravan leaders present more or less have similar God-Given Seed trade shares. It should be easy to exchange for a little God-Given Origin Power food trade share.
Difficult, however, refers to the fact that trading God-Given Sea Date Seeds may be a bit difficult.
God-Given Sea Date Seeds are already almost the top-tier God-Given Origin Power food in the Star Realm. It is not easy to find God-Given Origin Power food that is comparable to it.
Hearing Four-Leaf say this, if they don't have God-Given Origin Power food produced by top-tier God-Given Seeds, they won't be able to trade for God-Given Sea Date Seeds?
Most of the trading caravan leaders here came for the God-Given Sea Date Seeds. Now that they can't trade for them, how willing would they be?
Belamcanda Lord raised a question: "Four-Leaf, what if we don't have God-Given Origin Power food produced by top-tier God-Given Seeds?
You, a single spider, shouldn't be able to eat so much of the remaining God-Given Origin Power food, right?"
Four-Leaf: "I've already thought about this problem. This is my plan."
“Taking God-Given Sea Date Seeds as an example, 50% of the trade quota belongs to my partners. The Kingdom will communicate with the other party to obtain this share.”
“The remaining 50% share is my own. I will leave 10% of the share for myself to eat, and the remaining 40% share will be traded out.”
“For this 40% share, I will first trade it to partners who have God-Given Origin Power food trades. If there is any surplus in the trade, the remaining share will be traded equally to other interested trading caravans.”
