Ant Lord in the Star Realm

Chapter 1045: Chapter 701: Xianglan Chamber of Commerce (Part 3)

"Now that we can lead ourselves, why should we remain under other insects? Isn’t that right?"

——That’s reasonable.

——It must be insects who are closely related and mutually trusting.

——Moreover, other insects aren’t as excellent as we are.

The insects nodded their feelers in agreement.

This is indeed a difficult issue to handle.

Should we recruit other less intimate insects and provide them with Divine-Grade Fruits and resources for growth?

If we do, what if they leave after they are fed? Wouldn’t that be a huge loss?

But if we don’t provide, then we won’t be united, and they will leave even faster.

Most importantly, the news about the King Cypress and the six Divine God-Given Seeds cannot be casually known to other insects.

——Don’t casually recruit insects!

Dragon Cypress continued: "The second money-making job I can think of is the production of Origin Force Beads and Ant King Pearls through the Refinement Ability."

"Currently it’s known that human technology can achieve similar effects. I guess other Insect Clans might also possess similar abilities. This field also has competition, so it’s still uncertain if it can succeed."

"Prepare well."

"Fragrant Cypress, Black Sophora, Ghost Fan, White Rice, Chinese Clematis, you should pay more attention to and track the prices of Origin Force Food regularly."

The insects agreed once more.

Dragon Cypress turned back and said: "The core members of our chamber of commerce are those present today. As for future growth and expansion, we will need to increase members, but core members will not be easily added. If additions are necessary, they will come from two channels: first, newly born Assistant Kings, the most reliable; second, the Insect Clan Little Warriors born in our managed territory, selected for training based on merit."

"Insects raised from a young age are truly our own, fostering a sense of belonging."

Dragon Cypress: "The chamber of commerce is also divided into official members and hires. For general work, we can hire reliable insects."

"Hiring is divided into long-term and temporary. Long-term hires involve stable, long-lasting tasks with fixed annual compensation, while temporary hires are for urgent tasks, offering compensation upon completion."

"The situation in the Universe Starry Sky is far more complex than when we were on the home planet."

Dragon Cypress: "In addition, chambers of commerce can collaborate with and hire each other. With capital and strength, there are plenty of partners. Our chamber lacks the insect population, so we can flexibly use other chambers of commerce."

Dragon Cypress finished speaking, paused, and continued:

"Look at the ’Star Network Account’ chronology, it’s currently the Dawn Era, the first era of the New Cosmic Era, in the year 78,110,000. The era is named ’Dawn’, reflecting just the dawn period of the New Cosmic Era. It’s a fitting name, like the dawn of a day, with a long morning, noon, afternoon, and twilight ahead."

"On a cosmic scale, space is boundlessly vast, and time infinitely long, and we are just a small speck in the river of time and space, a fleeting moment. Therefore, everyone should take care to develop the habit of conserving lifespan, hibernating whenever possible."

Dragon Cypress looked at Ink Orchid, solemnly said: "Don’t wander around aimlessly, wasting life. Every December, during the trade month, you can wake up if interested, roam the 1001 Districts of various planets, or as Chairman White Ivy suggested, we can set up a stall to sell Origin Force Honey."

——Understood, Great King.

——Got it, Great Leader Dragon Cypress.

The insects agreed.

Black Cory raised a claw and said: "Great King, should we re-cultivate our current territory and plant some fresh fruit trees?"

Dragon Cypress: "Develop 3,000 square kilometers of land first, planting enough fruit trees for Origin Force Honey production and ant colony consumption."

Blue Catalpa raised a claw, suggesting: "Dragon Cypress Ant King, is it still necessary to develop our unique plants?"

The unique and highly valuable plants of Xianglan Mountain Kingdom currently only include Black Lotus.

Silver Cypress was exchanged with Huagi Mountain, so it’s no longer unique.

Additionally, while many new unique plant species were cultivated, looking around, the entire Twisted Blue Star has similar towering mutant plant species!

Azure and Sea Blue Trees from the Creator Civilization are distinctive, but in the Natural God System, they are only considered at a medium level.

Dragon Cypress deliberated and said: "Plant Black Lotus along the lakeside! Open ten more large reservoirs to plant more Black Lotus. Deploy heavy protection. No matter what, we can’t let this plant species spread out."

"Silver Cypress is worth continuing our focus on cultivation."

"Zhibai, Rainbow Poplar, Nine-Leaf Huangqian, Frost Birch, Green Torreya, Spotted Leaf Thousand-Claw King Orchid, and other top-level tree species can also continue to be planted, attempting to utilize the unique environment of Twisted Blue Star for further optimization."

"Additionally, Azure and Sea Blue Trees can be planted on a large scale, but note, these are also unique to our Xianglan Mountain Commerce Guild, not to be disseminated."

"Understood."

"Yes, Great King."

Blue Catalpa and Black Cory agreed.

Everything was discussed clearly.

Dragon Cypress called Ink Orchid, Tie Bush, and Rainbow Mulberry to set off, heading to North 1001 District to rendezvous with Chairman White Ivy’s group.
