Astral Cockroach

Currently, there seems to be some unpleasantness between the four merchant teams that trade with Li Bamboo Peak. They no longer meet in Autumn Maple County and travel together as they used to.

Chonglou and Yuzhu's group arrived at Li Bamboo Peak early in mid-February to complete their transactions, and then hurriedly rushed to the next stop. Now, the Iron Saber Mountains, Red Tangerine Mountains, and Green Ridge Mountains on the way to Crimson Fortress County all have more than one God-Given Seed. Every mountain range along the way is profitable.

Xianghun and Zijing merchant teams have a better relationship, and they arrived in early March.

It's the same old routine year after year. They greet each other with polite conversation, chat briefly, and then begin trading.

The trading process has long been standardized. First, they count the goods sold by Li Bamboo Peak and calculate the price. Then, Banbu informs them of the goods he needs to purchase this year. At the same time, if the merchant teams have new and suitable Origin Force foods, they will introduce and recommend them to Banbu. Banbu often buys a batch and asks Baba about them later. If they are useful, he will purchase them in large quantities next year.

Next is the Zijing merchant team. Banbu simply spends Origin Stones to purchase goods from them. In previous years, he would at most sell them a batch of ordinary bamboo seeds that were not worth much.

After the transaction was completed, County Lord Zijing pointed her chelating limbs at the Bloodthorn God-Given Seed not far from the trading square and asked with doubt, "Mountain Lord Banbu, is your Bloodthorn God-Given Seed still in a state of growth?"

Banbu said half-truthfully, "In recent years, I have used a large amount of God-Given Seed remnants, and it seems to have made a breakthrough. It has begun to grow again this spring."

County Lord Zijing knew that Li Bamboo Peak was hoarding three warehouses of Boundary Tree remnants, which were high-grade goods from beyond the sky, so she did not doubt it. She then asked the question she was most concerned about, "Mountain Lord Banbu, the Bloodthorn seeds produced this year must have increased significantly, right?"

Banbu said, "It should be good."

County Lord Zijing asked, "How much is it expected to reach? Can we sell it to your merchant team?"

In the beginning, the Zijing merchant team was only invited by the Xianghun merchant team to help in an emergency. At that time, Banbu had made a fortune in the Illusionary Glare Maze and planned to purchase Origin Force foods in large quantities to accelerate the promotion of Li Bamboo Peak members to Mountain Lords.

The original plan was to reduce the purchase of Origin Force foods after being promoted to Mountain Lord, and the Zijing merchant team would no longer need to come.

The change was that Banbu made a windfall in the subsequent treasure hunt process, and his net worth reached tens of millions. After the Li Bamboo Peak members were promoted to Mountain Lords, they had the financial resources to continue to sprint towards the County Lord level, and the Origin Force foods purchased each year increased rather than decreased.

Therefore, the Zijing merchant team continued to be invited to trade.

Such a large merchant team detouring to come, only selling goods, without a purchase quota, and only one-way profit, is indeed a bit unreasonable.

Banbu readily agreed, "The estimated output is 15,000 seeds. I will take out 3,000 seeds to sell to your merchant team. In addition, the output of the Mud Bamboo and Fire Oil Tea God-Given Seeds in Li Bamboo Peak has increased. Next year, I will take out a batch to sell to your Zijing merchant team."

The Mud Bamboo God-Given Seed strengthens the ability of earth and stone. It is bred by the red ant warrior Firethorn. The bamboo fruits produced previously were all sold to the Chonglou merchant team. Firethorn's promotion to Mountain Lord doubled the output, which was an expected increase.

"Fire Oil Tea…"

County Lord Zijing and County Lord Xianghun looked at Li Bamboo Peak at the same time.

It was a red mass, as bright as fire.

The trunk of the Fire Oil Tea God-Given Seed reached a height of about 45 meters, and the number of condensed tea fruits was as high as 3,000, with the quality reaching the upper grade, only a line away from the top grade.

It is still using plant gene fluid for continuous strengthening, and Boundary Tree remnants are used continuously. This year, the output will definitely increase.

With high quality and a large quantity, the Li Bamboo Peak members cannot digest it all after eating it. Banbu plans to take out 1,000 to sell to the merchant team.

The output of the three God-Given Seeds is quite considerable. County Lord Zijing was overjoyed and asked, "Mountain Lord Banbu, do you need to pay a deposit?"

Banbu waved his antennae and said, "No, let's discuss it next year based on the specific quantity and quality."

County Lord Zijing asked again, "Mountain Lord Banbu, the improvement of ordinary life seeds on Li Bamboo Peak is even greater, right? Do you plan to sell some?"

The profits of the Illusionary Glare Spider Tribe merchant team consist of two major parts: one part comes from within the insect race, mainly trading Origin Force foods condensed from God-Given Seeds, with low profits but high unit prices; the other part is selling high-quality Origin Force foods condensed from ordinary life seeds to the Northern Wilderness beast race, with low unit prices but high profits and especially large transaction volumes.

(Insect races restrict the circulation of Origin Force foods condensed from God-Given Seeds to the Northern Wilderness beast race)

The large and small packages of goods carried by the merchant team are mainly ordinary Origin Force foods purchased along the way from the territories of insect warriors at the County Lord level. If the quality of the Origin Force foods produced by a certain ordinary life seed in a Mountain Lord's territory is good enough, they will also purchase it.

In the past two years, the quality of ordinary life seeds has been significantly improved by using Boundary Tree remnants for irrigation and promotion. Previously, the Chonglou and Yuzhu merchant teams had already proposed purchasing them, but Banbu had rejected them.

Banbu shook his antennae and refused, "Li Bamboo Peak still has many beast warriors, and the demand for ordinary Origin Force foods is very high. There is no surplus to sell."

After Banbu finished speaking, he added, "However, in recent years, the growth rate of the wild Cliff Cypress God-Given Seed has accelerated, and the quality has continued to improve. According to my observation, it should be able to complete its first transformation and growth within five years, and the quality of the condensed cypress seeds will not be too bad, and the quantity will definitely be sufficient."

County Lord Xianghun had visited the wild Cliff Cypress God-Given Seed on the mountain in her early years and knew some of the situation. She was surprised and said, "So fast?"

Banbu said, "Yes."

County Lord Xianghun couldn't help but say again, "Mountain Lord Banbu, you should take out some God-Given Seed remnants to sell to our merchant team. The demand is not large, just a few bags will do. We won't sell them, we'll give them as gifts along the way to those promising warriors, and the price is negotiable."

Banbu was unwilling to reveal any more information about good things that could improve the quality of life seeds, so how could he possibly take them out for sale?

Banbu shook his antennae and did not respond.

County Lord Xianghun was just asking to try, so she didn't pester him too much and asked, "Mountain Lord Banbu, I remember that the growth potential of that wild Cliff Cypress God-Given Seed was originally good, right? If it improves again... first of all, the output will definitely not be low, right?"

Banbu nodded his antennae and said, "The tree body is huge, so if nothing unexpected happens, the output should be quite high, so I plan to split the produced cypress seeds and sell them equally to your Xianghun, Zijing, and Yuzhu merchant teams."

Origin Force foods that strengthen the physique are the easiest to sell, and buying them is making a profit.

"Thank you!" Xianghun said her thanks.

"Mountain Lord Banbu, thank you for your trouble!" County Lord Zijing followed suit and thanked him, secretly rejoicing in her heart: She had finally squeezed into the Li Bamboo Peak profit circle, and in the future, she would be able to steadily earn at least 25,000 Origin Stones from here every year. In the future, when Banbu is promoted to County Lord, the income will increase exponentially again.

Thinking about this, she scanned with her divine sense and realized that Banbu was already a six-year-old Mountain Lord, and he was not very far from becoming a County Lord.

How could it be so fast after only a few years?

Thinking of the high-quality Origin Force foods that Li Bamboo Peak purchased every year, worth more than 500,000 Origin Stones, County Lord Zijing chose to remain silent.

…

After seeing off the merchant team, Banbu returned to Li Bamboo Peak and continued to lie down, no longer easily going down the mountain. Hongdao and Hongmi took turns entering the jungle to hunt and bring food up the mountain.

Baizhu was also capable. He shrank back to the top of Li Bamboo Peak and waited until mid-March before entering the next round of gene evolution.

Before going to sleep, Baba helped to check and confirmed that the probability of failure was less than 5%, which was barely within an acceptable range.

After waiting for half a month, Baizhu successfully woke up, which was considered a relatively normal sleep evolution at the Mountain Lord level.
