The natural empire of ocean dragons

Chapter 69 The best weaver in the rainforest

The mention of preparing equal remuneration may be because I recently discussed with Lulu and Fujin about the growth and habits of fey, and a very important point was mentioned in it.

The fey will give you gifts, but you must prepare a reward that the fey considers to be equal. If you help the fey, the fey will repay you with the help that it considers to be equal.

Attilan couldn't tell whether Arachne was a fey, so he might have to let the vine see it, as she had a higher vision.

"Evri, have you let Master Jaina see Arachne?"

Evely nodded.

"The master has seen Arachne. She just judged that Arachne would not harm me. She doesn't know exactly what kind of spider Arachne is, unless she asks the natural gods."

Fujime couldn't bear to trouble the gods for such a trivial matter. Of course, she wrote a letter to her family and asked her grandfather to collect information about this spider through the Nature Council.

However, nothing was achieved.

The vine girl could only characterize Arachne as a unique species. In the past few years, she would come to the Black Forest from time to time to visit Eveli and observe Arachne's changes.

Arachne is related to the fey, but she is not a fey. She is a magical beast that has mastered the magic of the fairies. As she grows, there is indeed the possibility of transforming into a fey.

It's just that she hasn't changed even after being eight meters tall, and Fujime has decided that she won't change.

After packing the clay pots, Attilan was ready to leave.

Eveli quickly picked up two pieces of silk and gave them to him and said:

"You take these, and you need to come and take the rest at any time. As for the meat in exchange, give me some of each kind of meat. You can make arrangements for how much these silks can be exchanged for."

Eveli didn't care whether Attilan would deprive her of her flesh in the exchange, it was just a dozen pieces of silk, and she could just weave them again, and it was not a valuable item.

If Eveli trusts him so much, Attilan will naturally not let her down.

It is indeed not cheap to exchange several thousand kilograms of meat for one piece of silk, but for one piece of silk, he can exchange at least one hundred thousand kilograms of wheat flour from the human nobles.

After all, for human nobles, as long as farmers are farming, flour will continue to grow from the land and become taxes and fall into their hands, but silk is different.

One hundred thousand kilograms of wheat flour is not much at all for this rare treasure.

The land in the human kingdom in the north is not like the wasteland being developed by Attilan. Attilan worked hard to develop 100,000 acres of farmland, but in the human kingdom, a slightly larger lord may have this much farmland.

"I will arrange for a team of people to deliver food to you. The food will definitely satisfy you. However, there is no bridge connecting the north and south on the river. You can only get it by crossing the river. If the team goes into the water, the food will not be eaten."

"No problem, I will let the spider watch at the junction of the river and the lake. I will get it as soon as the people and horses arrive."

"Then I'll send the troops to the junction."

He returned to Qinglin Town with two pieces of silk and asked the old fish man to carefully store the silk. However, with the quality of Arachne's silk, the two pieces of silk would not be damaged as long as they were not deliberately damaged.

The problem is here, the quality of the silk is too good, it is good silk, but it is not a good product!

Silk clothes never wear out, so how can Attilan sell new silk.

He felt that it was necessary to let Arachne save some effort when weaving, and it was enough to control the strength of the silk to one-tenth of its current strength.

To be honest, with the quality of this piece of silk, it can withstand the arrows of a ranger professional below level 3 when worn on the body.

Ancient flower-growing generals would indeed wear a silk underwear under their armor to use the tight texture and strong toughness of silk to protect themselves from arrows. The silk was still silk, and spider silk was five times stronger than silk.

Arachne's spider silk is countless times that of ordinary spider silk. This quality of silk is stacked several layers to make silk soft armor. Attilan has reason to suspect that even the horse king's arrow may not be able to kill the wearer. The guy with silk and soft armor.

Once the linen is woven and the fishman tailor's skills are perfected, he will make soft armor out of silk and give it to the family members who have made the most merit.

Instruct the fishman priest to find a man who can run fast and steadily to be responsible for delivering food tomorrow, and let the fishman weavers selected in advance also set out to learn weaving skills.

Attilan found Princess Opea, who was treating the wound of a snake man who was accidentally injured by a wild boar while hunting.

"Opea, where did you get the linen you're wearing?"

"These cloths were made by some craftsmen in the Lizard Tribe who are partners of the Snake Tribe and are good at weaving. They are able to use a plant to make threads and then make them into cloth."

"Although the output is not high, it is very popular in the rain forest. If it were not for the cooperative relationship between us snakes and lizard people, I would not be able to get this linen clothes."

For example, her two female guards wore clothes made of river mussel shells and vines.

"Only a few lizardmen know how to make linen cloth?"

Oppa nodded.

"According to my understanding, there are less than ten lizardmen who master this skill. You must know that the lizardmen are also a large tribe of more than 500 people."

The number of snake people once approached a thousand, but now there are not only more than a hundred old, weak, sick and disabled people left. Before Opea escaped from the rainforest, the lizard people were a large tribe of more than 500 people.

But the lizard people's biggest partners, the snake people, have perished, so the life of the lizard people should not be easy either.

If he doesn't recruit lizardmen quickly, I'm afraid those lizardman weavers who are good at weaving but not good at fighting will become cannon fodder immediately.

There are lizard people in the rainforest who are good at weaving, and there may be other talents who have been missed. Attilan asked slightly excitedly:

"Opea, do you know there are races in the rain forest that master similar skills?"

Oppa thought for a moment and then shook her head.

"The best at weaving in the rainforest are probably the lizardmen. Other races use tough vines and leaves to make clothes."

"Not weaving, I mean other similar abilities."

Oppa scratched her cheek in confusion.

<divclass="contentadv">"Huh? I don't know, what is a similar ability?"

"For example, are you good at building houses with wood, making weapons, armor, etc.?"

Oppa shook her head.

"Everyone uses weapons made of stone and bones, and houses are built with vines and leaves. I don't think I have heard of anyone making houses like Qinglin Town."

Then Attilan was curious how the lizard people learned to weave linen?

"Opea, do you know how the lizard people learned to weave?"

Opelia shook her head directly, how could such news of a secret skill be spread to the outside world.

"Then you continue to treat him."

The snake man kept his head lowered in shame. As a snake man guard, he was actually injured by a wild boar while hunting. It was indeed embarrassing.

Apparently he underestimated the strength of wild boars in the forest. Not only were the vines in the forest tougher than those in the rainforest, but the wild boars were also stronger. This injured the snake guard who went out to hunt wild boars for the first time today.

Speaking of wild boars, Attilan suddenly remembered the wild boar chariot he borrowed from the old naughty boy. He actually forgot to watch the result of the wild boar, gray rabbit, and mastiff chariot race.

What a pity!

Attilan wanted to ask the satyr about the result of the game, but unfortunately the satyr had already set off to Riverside Town with his caravan, so he could only ask Brother Ya about the result of the game.

Of course, the recruitment of lizardmen needs to be arranged first. When he found the fishman priest, he was encouraging the weavers who would study tomorrow.

"For the sake of the Dragon Lord, you must study hard. Whether the fish people can prosper in the future depends on you, you know!"

"Yes, High Priest!"

Attilan watched the fishman priest's performance quietly, and did not appear until the weavers left.

"You contact Lista and the Centaur leader and ask them to go to the rain forest again to inquire about a tribe of lizard people who can weave. If they are doing well, wait until they are doing well. If they are not doing well, recruit them."

The fishman priest obviously also knew how much food Attilan had left.

"Lord Dragon, if there are hundreds more people with big appetites, we really won't have enough food for everyone. Even if we use forage as the staple food, it won't be enough."

"You don't object to eating grass?"

Attilan was a little surprised.

The fishman priest said cheerfully:

"The pasture that the dragon master asked us to grow tastes better than the water grass we used to eat, and contains more nutrients. With some flour added, the children will grow well."

Attilan smiled and joked.

"You don't let me recruit lizardmen because you're afraid that they can weave and take your place, right?"

"Of course not. The fishmen will always be loyal to the Dragon Lord. The more people weaver, the better. I've had enough of water grass skirts for a long time. I haven't tried wearing linen clothes for decades."

It is true that no one can bear to wear linen clothes, and then let people wear vines, leaves, and water plants like savages.

"Not everyone can learn to weave. To supply all the dependents and still have some left over to sell requires more than ten people. Naturally, the more weavers, the better."

"I still have something to do, so I'll leave first."

Before leaving, Attilan used a shower of grace on Hebangtian as usual.

When he found Ya Ge, Dajiao and Taishan were also with him.

"What are you doing? Making progress secretly without me, right?"

"Isn't it just thunder and lightning tempering? The intensity of the thunder and lightning we summoned can't meet the tempering requirements, so let's get together and practice more."

Taishan was still a little decadent when he said it. He was obviously one of the first druids to join the Thunder Mutual Aid Association, but it turned out that he failed to summon thunder and lightning. It was so embarrassing.

"Brother Ya, what was the result of the last racing competition? It's such a pity that I forgot to go and watch it. When is the next competition?"

Brother Ya looked at Attilan in confusion.

"The last competition was not successful. Master Carrot had something to do and needed to leave the forest for emergency treatment. The competition can only be held after he comes back. If there is not the war against the jackals, the competition can be held in advance."

"But how could I give up fighting gnolls for a racing match?"

Attilan smiled and asked:

"Brother Ya, you said that I went to Halfling Town to recruit warriors for the reason of fighting gnolls. Are there any halflings willing to come?"

"Of course I don't need them to actually fight on the front line. Their main duties are chefs, musicians, wine making, planting guidance and other logistical support work."

"You must know that the first factor in winning a war is logistics!"

Brother Ya gave him a roll of his eyes.

"Are you sure you are recruiting warriors?"
