Dawn Spider

Chapter 176 Silver, you take care of it.
Shark Harbour.

Just like last year, Red Cone waited at the dock with Silver, and Taro followed.

"Fourth brother!"

"Crash! Crash!"

Silver waved its forelegs, and Taro shook its eleventh leaf at the top, greeting it joyfully.

The strong winds are like the air force, fast and have long since crossed the sea to this side. They hover over the dock and slowly descend when they see the cargo ship arrive.

"Fourth brother!"

Yin rushed forward and chased after Jin, asking, "Fourth Brother, what happened? Why haven't any relics or treasures been returned this year? We asked Dafeng, but it wouldn't tell us either."

"..."

I got fired, can I tell you that?

Jin waved his paw impatiently and said dismissively, "Didn't find anything. Don't ask. I'll kill you if you ask again."

"Oh……"

Yin pressed on, asking, "Fourth Brother, will we still get year-end bonuses this year?"

"Let's settle the accounts first!"

Along the way, Jinling and his companion crossed the dock square, climbed a hill, and hid behind it to begin checking the accounts.

Last year, Ivory Island's total revenue from trade was 46.2 Primogems worth of Divine Force Food.

The situation on the Twin Islands of Salas is relatively stable, with the income from the God-given Force Food worth 13.5 Primogems.

Total revenue: 59.7.

The employee's salary is 16.

The final profit from Golden Claw was 43.7.

"This year, we're allocating 1.5 in prizes to Red Cone Mountain Lord, Great Wind Mountain Lord, and Silver. Each of you will receive a divinely bestowed food worth 5000 Primogems."

"Great!"

"Thank you, Mr. Jin!"

"Mr. Jin is so generous!"

"Fourth Brother, can't you give us more?"

“Clatter~Clatter~Clatter~”

Taro was more excited than anyone else, shaking its leaves vigorously and gesturing wildly.

Jin said, "Alright. Taro. You've worked hard too. Here's a reward of 2000 Primogems, a divinely bestowed food. You can exchange it for Primogems with Silver."

“Hua~la~”

Taro readily agreed.

Jin continued, "I'm now a level 4 advanced warrior and I'm preparing to accelerate my evolution to level 5. Next year, I'll need 10 resources for my own evolution and growth. I'll borrow 12 resources from Xiangpu of Qianguo Mountain. Just like last year, I'll lend the remaining 20 to Lord Sikui Mountain."

“Going forward, our annual income will be basically fixed, without major fluctuations, and the handling method will be roughly the same.”

"Ok."

"clear."

"Whoosh!"

Red Cone and Strong Wind agreed.

Taro was overjoyed and vigorously shook the taro leaves in agreement.

Silver Raises its Claw and asks, "Fourth Brother, I've followed up with the visit. Xiangpu has successfully evolved into an 8-year-old advanced warrior. This year, you and the Red Cone Mountain Lord lent it 18, and it molted and evolved into a 9-year-old. Next year, you lend it another 18. After a short rest, it will break through to the Mountain Lord level the year after next. After that, you should consider repaying the loan and stop lending it."

Yin asked, "Fourth Brother, what should we do with the surplus resources? What should we do with the resources that have been returned?"

Jin countered, "Can't we lend more to Lord Sikui? Also, why did I go to such lengths to acquire the Force Food Storage Boxes? Wasn't it to hoard resources?"

Yin suppressed his mental energy and asked, "What about the loan? Are we abandoning it?"

"This job isn't urgent..."

Jin countered with, "Are there any suitable candidates?"

"Yes!"

Yin prompted, "Fourth Brother, Little Fruit Wild Banana is a divinely bestowed seed! It belongs to the Lord of Tianqing Mountain in Yilan Mountain! It should break through to the Lord level as soon as possible!"

"Um--"

Jin seemed to understand something, then said, "Alright! Yin, this job is yours! Go and take care of Lord Tianqing!"

silver:"……"

Yin Youyou said, "Fourth Brother, last year you, you seemed to have told me about a promotion and a raise? Then after it was all done, you didn't give me the raise."

"Wow!"

"Wow!"

Taro nodded seriously, its antennae twitching: "Yes, that's true! I can vouch for it!"
Jin readily agreed, "Okay! Yin, once you get this sorted out, you'll be in charge of all loan business from now on, and I'll give you an extra 1 yuan a year. If the deal goes through, the 'bond' issuance business will also be given priority to you, and if that goes through, I'll give you another 1 yuan."

"Roger that!"

Yin Kai happily agreed, but then realized something was amiss and asked:

"Fourth Brother, are you planning to use the resources from issuing 'bonds' to 'lend' them out?"

"Nonsense. Do you think I could come up with that many resources myself?"

"I'll be in charge of both bond issuance and lending?"

"Yes. Yin, it's a long and arduous journey ahead, keep going!"

"That's not right, Fourth Brother. I've been doing all the work, so what am I supposed to do with you?"

Nonsense! We're a multinational corporation, after all. Do you expect the boss to personally handle all the business?
Jin Moran said, "You can resign too. I'll find another spider to do it."

Yin immediately deflated upon hearing this.

...

The accounts have been reconciled.

After the loading and unloading work at the dock was completed and the working spiders dispersed, Jin Yixing approached the Spider King of the Five Schools to check the accounts, inform him of the amount of gene serum to be used this year, and then entered the kingdom's warehouse to select the divinely bestowed primal force food needed for evolution and growth.

After finishing, we returned to Sikui Mountain.

Finally, let's double-check the revenue from gene-based products generated through last year's equipment processing collaboration.

Confirmed.

Dafeng, carrying the resources, said goodbye and left.

Silk Sunflower and the Lord of Red Cone Mountain delivered last year's gene serum to the warehouse of the Sea Lemon Mountain Kingdom.

Salesmanship is largely a matter of talent. After a brief business training, Yin took Yutou and set off for Qianguo Mountain and Yilan Mountain to discuss loan business.

Jin Anwen stayed at Mount Sikui to rest and began preparing for her 4th-year growth and evolution, using divinely bestowed primal energy food and primal crystals to accelerate meditation. …

...

Qianguo Mountain.

News has arrived that the cargo ships that went to the southern continent for trade have returned.

Neither the Lord of Wild Indigo Mountain nor Elephant Pu had the heart to go to the fields to work.

Tianlan had no interest in venturing into the jungle to search for the divinely bestowed seeds. She left her nest early in the morning, sometimes circling the mountain peaks, sometimes speeding along the ridges.

In the late morning,
In the distance, along the rugged mountain path, figures could be vaguely seen.

"coming!"

With a cheer, Tian Lan transformed into a streak of blue-gold light and shot out.

Yin, carrying Taro, traveled unhurriedly along the mountain path, manipulating an extremely thin spider silk to whirl and cut through the branches and leaves on both sides of the road, clearing a path for Taro behind her.

"silver!"

Sky Blue exclaimed excitedly, "Taro! You're here too!"

"Whoosh!"

The taro swayed in response.

Yin asked, "Are the Lord of Wild Indigo Mountain and Elephant Catkin both at Thousand Fruit Mountain?"

"Of course!"

Tian Lan said, "I knew you would be coming in the next day or two, so I'm waiting for you."

"It's good that you're here."

Yin quickened her pace slightly.

Taro was too slow; it took him quite a while to get to Thousand Fruit Mountain.

Lord Ye Dianshan and Xiang Pu warmly greeted them.

After a brief greeting,

Yin first removed a spider silk bag and opened it.

A loan agreement with a face value of 60,000 and no interest, along with six banknotes with a face value of 10,000 each rolled up in a tube, floated and hovered in front of the elephant.

“Xiangpu, this is the 6 divine resources lent to you by the Lord of Red Cone Mountain. It follows the same rules as last year, so I won’t repeat them.”

"it is good!"

Xiang Pu readily agreed, gathering his spiritual power to imprint his mark on the loan agreement.

Silver was returned to the contract.

The elephant used a metal wire to bind the currency and hung it on its antennae.

Silver then removed another spider silk pouch from its carapace and opened it.

Two loan agreements floated and hovered in front of Xiangpu.

Yin said, "Xiangpu, this is the 120,000 that my fourth brother promised to lend you, split into two contracts of 60,000 each. When you repay in the future, you will repay in installments of 60,000 each. Once you have repaid 60,000, we will return one of the loan contracts to you."

"understand!"

Xiang Pu agreed, glanced around, didn't recognize the written characters, but could roughly make out the patterns, and most importantly, recognized the numbers, confirming it was 60000. Without thinking too much, he imprinted his mental energy on the image.

Yin retrieved the loan agreement, controlling a thick stack of spider silk vouchers, which floated and hovered in front of the elephant.

Unfold the package, confirm that the denomination and quantity are correct, then roll it up into a tube and hand it over to Xiangpu.

"Ok."

"no problem."

Yin and Xiangpu spoke at the same time.

This year's lending business was successfully completed.

With 18 divinely bestowed foods upon his claws, Elephant Pu was overjoyed.

"Yin, you must be tired after walking such a long way. You rest, I'll go hunt some food."

"No need to trouble yourself. Taro and I set off from Zitan Peak at dawn to come here. We're not tired."

"Taro, it's been a long time. Why don't you go see the Golden-Mouthed Scorpiontail Banana? It often asks about you."

“Whoa! Whoa!”

Taro vigorously tapped the eleventh taro leaf at the top in response.

Together they arrived at the garden where the Golden-Mouthed Scorpiontail Banana had taken root. Taro enthusiastically offered its two growth abilities, controlling the green wood-type primal energy mist to envelop a large area of ​​the plantlets.

"Taro is evolving and growing quickly; it shouldn't be far from reaching the Mountain Lord level, right?"

"Far from it. Right now, it can only unleash a maximum of 20 growth abilities at a time. According to the pattern, it needs to reach 33 to reach the advanced peak, which means it will take at least another ten years to grow."

"That's... not slow!"

"Where's Jin? Is he resting at Mount Sikui?"

"Yes."

"What relics were unearthed last year?"

"It seems like there was no harvest last year."

"..."

Yin, Ye Dian Shan Zhu, Xiang Pu, and Tian Lan chatted idly outside the garden.

Seeing that the Golden-Mouthed Scorpion-Tailed Banana's divinely bestowed seed had absorbed the growth power of the two hairs, Silver quickly took his leave:
"Taro and I should set off now. We should try to reach Sumu Peak before dark, and then we will have to travel a long way to reach Yilan Mountain."

"Yilan Mountain?"

Tianlan's antennae twitched, and she asked, "Is this Yilan Mountain, where Lord Tianqing and Liusang reside?"

"Yes!"

Yin asked curiously, "Sky Blue, do you recognize them?"

"know!"

Tianlan said, "I searched for divine seeds in the jungle. I've been there every year when the flowers bloom and the fruits ripen. I went to visit them. I went into the wild jungle with Liusang to search for divine seeds."

"Oh--"

Yin's heart skipped a beat, and she invited, "Tianlan, why don't we go together?"

"Okay!"

Tianlan agreed without hesitation.
