Chapter 093: Stubborn Mountain Persimmon (Nine Watches)
After the dragon cypress was promoted to the 7th instar intermediate ant king, the upper limit of the eggs produced by the throne of domination was increased to 6, which is still a four-day cycle, and the average is 1.5 per day.
In the ant nest, uninterruptedly, there are larvae hatching, larvae forming cocoons, and worker ants emerge.
The number of large and medium-sized worker ants reached the planned 600.
The dragon cypress began to breed soldiers in large numbers.
In practice, it is found that soldier ants are not suitable for carrying soil clods, and their jaws are easy to bite the soil clods, but soldier ants can carry stones, which is suitable for collecting scattered gravel in the form of sweeping and hunting, and the efficiency is higher than that of worker ants.
Soldier ants can work part-time as both hunting and quarrying.
The dragon tree plans to increase the number of specialized soldier ants to 300, and the number of large and medium-sized soldier ants to 300.
β¦β¦
Before the onset of winter, a 13-meter-long pond was dug on the south side of the mountain.
Backfill a half-meter-thick layer of soft humus, pour some biogas residue, and after an autumn rain, store a small half pond of water.
The preparations are complete.
Sit back and wait for the spring warmth of the next year, and sow the seeds of the gods as soon as possible.
After a cold wind, the temperature plummets, and the worker ants are low in vitality and return to the warm nest for vacation.
The agreed time for the tour merchant has also arrived, and the appointment can no longer be missed.
It took three days for Long Bai and Mo Lan to hunt a group of large animals by themselves, stock up on enough food for the nest, pack their bags and set off.
While the weather is not particularly cold, go north first.
Take a slight detour halfway through, delay the day, and search for other Force lands along the way.
Didn't find it.
β¦β¦
Silver Cypress Mountain.
The sky is high and the clouds are light, and everything is depressed.
A chilly breeze pierced through the carapace.
It didn't snow, but it was still freezing uncomfortably.
But Ke Jianjia seems to be super hardy, the golden tomato fruit is hanging on the branches, and the persimmon is busy in full swing, not touching the ground.
The persimmon is on the tree, busy harvesting, and the throne of domination is approaching, and it only shakes its slender tentacles, and briefly greets:
"The Dragon Cypress Ant King. Merlan. You're coming. β
"Persimmon."
Long Bai greeted.
Mo Lan turned around, picked up a gourd, and shook it vigorously, making a 'bang' sound.
"The persimmons, the persimmon tree seeds that you collect, are hardy varieties that can be grown alive in the north. When you mix it up, you will mix it in a sowing nursery, and let's subdivide it after the seedlings grow. β
- Persimmon seeds have arrived?!
As soon as the persimmon was excited, he fell directly from the tree to the ground.
The Throne of Domination slowly sank to the ground.
"Mountain persimmons, don't get excited, these are ordinary persimmon seeds, mediocre." Mo Lan fluttered her wings and stepped forward to hand the gourd to the persimmon.
Long Bai picked up a small spider silk bag and asked, "Persimmon, do you remember the azure persimmon I mentioned to you?" β
"Of course!"
The persimmon held the gourd, rolled the wooden cork with its flexible tentacles, looked at it obsessively, slowly raised its head, and suddenly burst into ecstasy.
"Dragon Cypress Ant King, have you found Azure persimmon seeds?"
"Yes......" Long Bai: "However, there are only 10 in total, and Mo Lan and I each took one as a life seed." Now there are only 8 left, you take one for your own life, and the remaining 7 seedlings are multiplied...... There are only 7 of them, try not to make a mistake. β
"Good!"
The persimmon asked worriedly, "Dragon Cypress Ant King, how many rough stones do you sell for these seeds?" Expensive, right? β
Long Bai: "Ordinary persimmon seeds are not valuable, and they will not accept your rough stones." β
Long Bai said solemnly: "It took a lot of money to get the Azure Persimmon Seeds, and they can't be priced with raw stones...... I can give it to you for free, but I have two conditions that are not too harsh. β
Yama persimmon asked, "What conditions?" β
Long Bai: "The first condition, if you are in the advanced warrior stage, all life types must choose Azure persimmon. Of course, I will buy the persimmons that I produce at a high price. β
"The second condition, I may need some ordinary azure persimmon seeds in the future, and you need to provide them for free."
The persimmon was slightly stunned and said in surprise: "No problem!" Thank you, Dragon Cypress Ant King, and thank you Mo Lan. β
"You're welcome." Mo Lan waved his tentacles in a grand manner.
Long Bai: "Persimmon, I have a little suggestion, do you want to listen?" β
Yamakami: "Listen! β
Long Bai: "After all, you are just a single insect, time and energy are limited, it is recommended that in the follow-up operation, the persimmon trees that have been planted will be eradicated, and gradually replaced with azure persimmons, and in the future, you will mainly operate and cultivate the azur persimmon plant." Other kinds of persimmon trees can be planted in moderation. β
Eradicate?
The persimmon hesitated, tangled, slowly shook its tentacles, and said firmly: "I have time and energy to take care of more persimmon trees!" β
Long Bai: "......"
Mo Lan: "......"
I have long seen that this persimmon is a dead brain, and Long Bai and Mo Lan are not easy to persuade it.
Long Bai skipped the topic and asked, "Mountain persimmon, the silver cypress seeds and persimmon fruits produced this year are still there, right?" β
Yama Persimmon: "Yes!" It's all there. The persimmons were just harvested two days ago and are still fresh. β
When it came to the transaction, the persimmon took the initiative to ask: "Dragon Cypress Ant King, is there still a god-given southern sour date?" β
"Yes!" Long Bai was secretly happy and asked, "Persimmon, do you also think the effect is good?" β
"I think it's very good! Cheap and easy to use. β
The persimmon gathered the persimmon seeds, ran away a few steps, spread its elytra, and stretched the brown membranous wings hidden under the elytra.
Buzz ~ Buzz ~ Buzz ~
The persimmon flapped its wings and slowly rose into the air.
The cold wind swept and the leaves fell.
ε±±persimmon excitedly says:
"Now I can barely fly! Two or three more of these reinforcements will definitely be able to regain the ability to fly. I'll be able to fly and pick persimmons. That way, it's much more efficient, and I can plant more persimmon trees. β
Mo Lan regretted a little and said: "However, we only brought 200 southern sour dates with us this time. β
Long Bai persuaded with good words: "Mountain persimmon, it is best for high-level warriors to focus on comprehensive physical strengthening, supplemented by the talent system. Southern sour dates can be eaten, but in moderation, for you, 100 per year is very suitable. β
Long Bai: "That's kind advice. Mo Lan and I have endless southern sour dates that we can't eat and sell, and we want to make money, but we can't just make money, we also have to think about our trading partners. Persimmon, think of your deceased elder Yinbai......"
"Oh-"
Yama persimmon said in frustration: "I understand ......"
The persimmon was silent for a while, and asked stubbornly, "Did you only bring 200?" Then I'll buy 200 pieces, eat 100 pieces this year, and eat another 100 pieces next year. β
Long Bai was speechless for two seconds, and then promised, "Okay!" β
β¦β¦
This year's output in the persimmon territory is slightly higher than last year.
All of them add up, resulting in a total of 7,200 rough stones.
200 southern sour jujubes, 2000 rough stones.
There are still 60 ghost fans left, and it's all inclusive, 1500 rough stones.
A jar of ant honey made by mixing dozens of Force foods that strengthen the physique, 2,000 primordial stones.
In the end, the dragon cypress helped it choose a serving of mixed Force food worth 1,700 rough stones.
After the transaction was completed, I headed southeast and rushed straight to the next stop: Baifan Mountain
The main thing is the output of the high-grade ball cricket warrior rice, in just one year, the yield has not increased much, the quality has not changed, and the unit price that has been set before remains unchanged.
This year, the flesh of the black rice tree and the white rice tree was eaten by the white rice and black rice themselves.
The final price is 7,000 rough stones.
Simply complete the transaction, don't linger, go straight to the Jianlan Plain, and search for the God-given seed.
There is no gain. Continue to the next stop: Onifan Mountain
