Foreign Land Reclamation By a Vegetable-growing Skeleton Chapter 1355 - 1355 916 5 Haha this pot is not that big

Chapter 1355: Chapter 916 5? Haha, this pot is not that big after all Chapter 1355: Chapter 916 5? Haha, this pot is not that big after all Nagi felt he was going crazy. He was just a second-hand Goblin rchant; if he caused so trouble, at most he would die. But he never expected Ange to pull out a pot that could annihilate his entire race.

In the current Friel Empire, anything related to Chaos Stones could potentially lead to the extermination of one’s race, not to ntion that Ange had actually managed to grow a Chaos Tree?

The Chaos Trees outside were alive? And they could bear Chaos Stones? If this news leaked out, a hundred Magician Groups would swarm here and surround the place.

Chaos Stones were a powerful type of energy crystal, capable of providing energy for chanical Constructs, Flying vehicles, Magic Crystal Cannons, and other alchemical devices, with an energy density many tis higher than Demon Crystals.

Of course, that wasn’t the main point. The main point was that Chaos Stones could actually be grown? Such powerful energy crystals could actually be planted from the ground?

The way energy is sourced is a form of revolution, and the way energy is acquired can also cause a revolution.

If Soul Energy needed to be plundered, refined, or lay dormant, then the growth rate of souls would be very slow.

But if a Soul Network was established, Soul Energy could flow continuously. Breaking through the Mourning Black Crystal was just around the corner; this was the revolution in the thod of acquisition.

If the Empire could get these trees, plant them everywhere, wouldn’t it solve the energy problem? In the future, Flying vehicles, teleportation gates, heating, lighting, and more could all be powered by Chaos Stones.

This idea was too beautiful; it drove the entire Empire insane, with everyone searching for the seeds of the Chaos Trees.

Unfortunately, the Divine Light Association was also strict in protecting the Chaos Trees. Before evacuating, they sprayed poison on all the trees. Most were poisoned to death, and those few that survived often died because no one understood how to plant them properly.

On the current black market, a live Chaos Tree was already being priced at six million Magic Crystals, with no fixed price— it was estimated that the price would soon exceed ten million. This price was enough to tempt individuals from the Divine Light Association to take risks and steal live seeds to sell.

Now Ange was telling him that the Chaos Trees outside were alive. Even if there was only one alive, it was a treasure worth at least six million Magic Crystals. Although he hadn’t looked closely, Nagi knew that there were definitely more than one alive outside.

Damn, he was just a small rchant and didn’t want to do things that would wipe out his entire race.

Just as Nagi was stepping on the pedal to climb into the chanical Construct, Ange said, “Profit, you, five percent.”

Nagi froze on the pedal. Countless numbers flickered through his mind. He felt weak all over and slid off the pedal, “Really… really five percent profit? For ?”

Ange nodded. As the Lord God of Fraudsters, even if he had never done business, he had seen how silver coins were made, and of course, he knew that the best way to motivate a rchant was to share the money.

“Five percent of six million is three hundred thousand,” Nagi continued, “rise to ten million, and five percent is five hundred thousand. Hiss— If there’s more than one tree, the five hundred thousand has to double. Hehe, seems like this pot isn’t too big after all. I’m in.” Excited, Nagi turned around and found everyone looking at him as if he were a fool.

The Monarch said, “We didn’t say we were selling the trees. We just want you to help with procurent and sales. Why are you so excited?”

“Hehe, hehe.” Nagi rubbed his palms together. “A steady stream is better. Even if you really gave a Chaos Tree, I wouldn’t dare sell it. I’m just calculating fixed assets. With one tree, we have ten million in fixed assets. Two trees, twenty million; five percent is one million Magic Crystals. That’s enough, enough. As for appreciation and liquidation, that’s for later.”

Watching Nagi’s familiar movents, the Monarch couldn’t help asking, “Are all of you Goblins as shrewd as you are?”

Nagi quickly said, “Of course not. Many Goblins are stubborn, only know alchemy, not shrewd at all. Letting them do business would be a sure loss.”

From Nagi’s indignant tone, it seed he had been swindled by so stubborn Goblin before.

“Speaking of which,” Nagi shifted his tone and asked, “Which one of you two is the big boss?”

Wrench complained with dissatisfaction from the side, “Why are there two? There are clearly three ‘people’ here, why can’t I be the big boss?”

Nagi chuckled and pointed at the spot in front of the Monarch, “If you dare to stand here, I’ll believe you might be the big boss.”

Wrench looked at the Monarch, then back at the spot Nagi pointed to, muttering under his breath, but ultimately didn’t dare to step forward.

Co on, with all the years Nagi had been traveling north and south, couldn’t he tell soone’s status?

The Monarch pointed at Ange, “He is your boss.”

Nagi imdiately picked up on the subtlety, he was ‘your’ boss, not ‘our’ boss, and the difference was significant.

“Boss, what do you need to do?” Nagi turned to Ange and asked.

Ange spoke of many things, mainly so fertilizers, tools, containers, raw materials and the like. The agricultural techniques on the farm, how should one put it, were quite primitive for Ange. Technologies like drip irrigation, slow-release fertilizers, top dressing, foliar application, and supplental lighting were all absent.

Ange needed a large number of materials and tools for comparative experints in order to possibly increase the yield of Chaos Stones.

“Are these all agricultural goods? How much could they be worth?” Nagi was a bit disappointed.

He thought it would be so big business deal. Agricultural goods, because of inherent limitations, could never be expensive. If the cost of agricultural goods went up, agricultural produce would correspondingly beco expensive, and then many people wouldn’t be able to afford to eat, leading to starvation.

Staple foods must be cheap enough for everyone to afford, so correspondingly, the agricultural goods must also be cheap. The taste of staple foods is often not the most important aspect; unit cost is.

“This, buy one of these.” Ange pointed at Nagi’s lumbering chanical Construct.

Nagi perked up, “You want to buy this? This one was custom-made for , equipped with Dragon Pattern Steel Armor, and various Mithril Magic Patterns, Soil Forge Burn, Gem Enhancents, and Piercing Enchantnts—it’s very expensive. If it’s just for logging, you could buy the simplest version for one-twentieth the price.”

Ange thought for a mont and nodded, “Two.”

Nagi left with the one hundred and twenty Chaos Stones that Ange had grown over the past few days. As an energy crystal, a Chaos Stone’s energy density was about ten tis that of a Demon Crystal. In the territory of the Divine Light Association, the basic exchange rate between Chaos Stones and Demon Crystals was kept at ten to one.

But now the Friel Empire had a knee-jerk reaction; the people of the Empire were extrely interested in all goods, rumors, and information related to the Divine Light Association elents and were especially curious about the Chaos Stones that grew on trees.

Originally at a ten-to-one ratio, the Chaos Stones were hyped to twenty-to-one in the black market. One hundred and twenty Chaos Stones were equivalent to two thousand four hundred Demon Crystals, more than enough to buy two basic lumbering chanical Constructs.

On the other hand, the Monarch was sowhat perplexed, “What do you need a lumbering chanical Construct for?”

“For the King,” Ange said.

“For ?” The Monarch was taken aback, rembering that he had ntioned that thing was ‘handy for chopping people’—could the kid have taken it to heart and decided to get one for him?

The Monarch felt a warmth in his heart and said, “Then I don’t want the simple version. I want a very expensive custom version, even more expensive than Nagi’s.”

Although he declared he wanted a more expensive one, once Nagi bought the chanical Constructs back and Ange exploded the Chaos Stones with his gaze, causing the Power of Chaos to splatter onto the chanical Constructs, the Monarch couldn’t help himself anymore, “What are you doing? Modifying it? Why do I feel like the Power of Chaos is seeping into the chanical Construct?”
