Dawn Spider

Chapter 219

Qingsha Port.

The cargo ship continued to slow down and slowly entered the dock.

The strong winds swirling in the air descended vertically.

"I have met the King of the Wood Spider! I have met the King of the Carefree Spider! I have met Lord Famu! I have met Lord Yunxun..."

A long string of greetings and well wishes.

Every time a cargo ship approaches, Dafeng stays far away, mainly because the ship is full of Jin's elders, and it's too much trouble to greet them.

Da Feng quickly relayed the message, saying, "Huo Tong brought 30,000 soldier ants to greet us; they're resting on that mountain peak. Boss Jin, should I notify Huo Tong to bring his troops over?"

Jin said, "Arrange for 100 soldier ants to come to the dock."

"Roger that!"

Dafeng agreed, then quickly reported, "Our archaeological excavation team's Jin Nan, Xue Guo, Tuan Hua Lord, as well as Zi Feng and Huang Ying Mountain Lord have all arrived and are with the ant army."

"The Leaf King and the White Lord of the Two-Colored Cockroach Tribe, along with their kin, transported 400 million God-given Force Foods to purchase the 'Force Convergence Shield'."

"We discussed it together and checked it again. After confirming that there were no major problems, we accepted it."

"it is good!"

Jin agreed, saying, "Have some soldier ants come and pick up the little spider; I'll go handle it."

"Ok!"

The wind agreed and sped away.

...

The cargo ship docked at the port, its metal gangway extending out to the shore.

"Friends from the seven tribes, please wait a moment."

"We're unloading some cargo here... some small spiders."

"Everyone, stay still! Watch your step!"

The Worry-Free Spider King and the Oak Spider King shouted with their spiritual power.

The gold and olive branches, rubbing their chelicerae together to produce sound, directed the round purple flame spiders to line up and disembark.

The little spiders were incredibly bold. As soon as they landed, they adapted to their environment, looking around, pointing with their claws, and rubbing their chelicerae together to make a sound.

"Click~"

"So many bugs!"

"Ivory Island is indeed lively!"

What kind of insect is that?

"That's a longhorn beetle! And those huge tentacles!"

"So ugly~"

"Look over there! Look! It's an incredibly ugly bug!"

"What kind of bug is that? Its ass is sticking up to the sky."

"..."

No wonder these guys were beaten to death and maimed on Silk Sunflower Mountain; the strong scent of silver and Red Cone Mountain Lord.

—Damn it! Has the bloodline been contaminated?

Jin felt a headache coming on from the noise and commotion. He rubbed his chelicerae and hissed, "Quiet! Quiet! Be careful! Some clever insects can decipher the sonic signals of our Flame Spider tribe."

"Crack!"

"Didn't you tell me earlier?"

"Crack~"

"There's an insect watching us over there, do you understand?"

"..."

The spider swarm gradually fell silent. A glare from a few burrowing, ferocious-looking mountain grasshopper warriors in the distance silenced them all.

Soon,
Fire Tube, leading 100 soldier ants, rushed to the dock.

Jin, Shanlan, and Huotong jointly directed the little spiders to climb onto the backs of the soldier ants, which would then carry them to the northeastern tip of the island, to the kingdom of the red-headed termites.

...

Outside the square, behind the mountain, in the woodland.

An army of 30,000 termites has been stationed here.

The insects from the archaeological excavation team were also present.

Greet everyone upon arrival and introduce Shanlan to them.

Everyone is already aware of the sales details for the 'Force Convergence Shield', so I won't go into further detail. I'll simply state:

"The White-haired Lord used his own share to offset 1000 million of the 600 million divinely bestowed resources of the Two-colored Cockroach tribe, and paid 400 million, which is considered to settle the account."

"Of the 1000 million divinely bestowed resources for the Flame Spider tribe, 400 million have been received this year. To facilitate storage and transportation, I have arranged for them to be transported back to Silk Sunflower Mountain for processing. The remaining 600 million will be paid in two installments next year and the year after."

Lord Jin Nan raised his antennae, pointed to the 400 million divine resources sent by the two-colored cockroach tribe, and asked with a raised paw:

"Boss Jin, what should we do with the divinely bestowed resources that have now reached the claw level? Should we distribute them first?"

Lord Bai Cang said, "The amount is too large, and we can't gather the enhancement attributes everyone needs in a short time. Boss Jin's idea is that it will gradually convert the required attributes through trading."

Lord Bloodfruit asked, "Boss Jin, what about the Flame Spider Kingdom? What types of divine resources do they have there?"

Jin replied, "The main elements are fire and earth, with some earth and water elements as well."

Jin said, "The other three Force Convergence Shields were sent to the Southern Continent for sale. The Kashiwa Spider King took one as a sample and helped us sell it. The asking price was 2000 million, with a minimum price of 1000 million. We can't be sure what the final price will be for yet."

“我的想法是，大家先按1000万计算，确定各自分配份额。5%分成比例就是300万份额。10%分成比例则是600万份额。”

"I will slowly circulate the divine resources obtained through the transactions, and settle accounts once a year. Once I have exchanged them for the divine food that you need, I will deliver it to you in a timely manner until the quota is fully paid."

"Okay..." "It seems like it will work..."

The insects hesitated before agreeing.

Jin followed up, saying, "But that would be very troublesome. We'd take a little this year, a little next year, you take a little, I take a little, and the accounts would be very complicated."

"Therefore, I will first issue everyone a corresponding amount of 'trust currency' for bookkeeping. Later, for every amount of divinely bestowed food that is redeemed from me, a corresponding amount of trust currency will be returned. This way, I don't need to keep accounts, and things won't get chaotic."

Lord Jin Nan jumped up and down, saying, "Boss Jin, you're at it again, trying to sell your credit currency."

The Blood Fruit Lord turned to the side and glanced at him, saying, "Boss Jin, I heard you're lending money for a fee on the Twin Islands of Saluo? You wouldn't be deliberately withholding our resources and then using them to make a profit through lending, would you?"

"How could that be? There aren't that many people who need loans."

Jin calmly explained to everyone, "Our Flame Spider Kingdom produces less than 20 million God-given Seeds a year. According to my estimate, Ivory Island produces only about 50 to 60 million God-given Seeds a year."

"This time, we need to exchange a total of 6000 million, mainly fire, water, and earth elements. Everyone will also need to choose the types. In addition to you, there are many other insects that need it. We definitely can't exchange that much in one or two years. The God-given Seeds can't produce such a large amount of God-given Force food that everyone needs. It's destined to take many years to meet everyone's needs."

"Changing a little bit every year, with uncertain categories and amounts, makes bookkeeping troublesome and prone to errors. Using credit vouchers eliminates these problems."

"I think it's great! I have no objections."

Lord Bai Cang waved his tentacles in response.

You're talking nonsense! You've already redeemed your 600 million, where did you get your opinion from?
"alright."

Lord Tuanhua agreed.

"can."

"no problem."

"It's a small thing."

"..."

The other insects hesitated, then agreed. They were quite certain that this guy, Jin, was planning to use everyone's divinely bestowed resources for lending.

"Then it's settled."

"These are divinely provided foods, so please choose what you need and take some with you. I'll keep the books."

"As for the remaining shares, I have time now. I'll weave paper money for everyone and arrange for a strong wind to deliver it."

--OK!

The insects agreed.

Open the spider silk bag and begin sorting.

Jin estimated prices, tallied amounts, and simultaneously compiled ledgers and recorded accounts.

It took some time to get it done.

The two-colored cockroach tribe delivered 400 million divine resources, but there wasn't much that everyone needed, so they took about 30.

The remaining termites were carried by soldier ants to the Red-headed Ant Kingdom, where the Queen of the Secret Order selected them. The last remaining termites were airlifted by strong winds to Mount Silk Palm for processing and storage.

The issue of distributing the spoils from last year's excavation has been preliminarily clarified.

...

Everyone was happy to receive the food bestowed by God with the power of the Force.

Lord Jin Nan immediately began to devour the food.

"Boss Jin, you brought the mountain olives here, does that mean it will handle the processing cooperation of the God-given Seeds for you? So you can focus on researching how to find and excavate the relics of alien civilizations?"

"No. I plan to take the mountain olive tree with me for a year to get up close to various divinely bestowed seeds, broaden my experience, and familiarize myself with the pricing of Force foods. In the future, I will arrange for it to be in charge of the shops."

"Forehead--"

"Shops?"

"When will we start excavation this year?"

"Where should we dig? Still at site 1002?"

"Ruins 1002 are no good; they're swarming with insects. The moment we move our claws, a huge swarm comes rushing at us."

"Change locations? But where to change to?"

"No rush..."

Jin asked, "Where are the three old insect kings? Have they started construction?"

The Blood Fruit Lord said, "I secretly inquired and found out that the Stone Insect King is still resting on Wuchao Mountain."

Jin looked at Lord Jin Nan.

Lord Jin Nan said, "The King of Eshu Insects hasn't made a move either."

Lord Tuanhua lowered his mental energy and said, "Last year's false news about us digging up 1000 boxes of divinely bestowed food was too much of a shock. Many insects who were originally managing their territories honestly have left their territories and joined the digging team. Ivory Island is a bit out of control and in chaos. It will take some time for everyone to calm down."

Lord Jin Nan asked, "Shall we... dig somewhere else?"

"Not urgent!"

Jin said, "Then we'll take a vacation too. This time it'll probably be a long vacation. We'll see. If the three old insect kings make a move, we'll follow suit."

"Row!"

"no problem."

"Boss Jin, please send a strong wind to inform me."

"On call."

"..."

The insects agreed.

After chatting for a while,
A strong wind led the way in the sky, and a fire tube directed the ant army to set off.

Lord Bloodfruit and Lord Purplewind went together to the Red-Headed Termite Kingdom to help renovate the territory and build a batch of living chambers for the little Flame Spiders.
