Yao's ability to observe words and colors can be seen. After seeing Locke's impatience, Yao went straight to the theme and said, "our tribe has some gifts for the knight."
Yao's back wings vibrated slightly, and the sound wave of a certain frequency spread to the outside. A team of thunder locusts, who had already been prepared, came in with two large boxes.
Locke didn't move and continued to watch them perform.
After the box was put down, it made a dull and heavy noise, and there were still a lot of things in it.
Under the sign of Yao's eyes, one of the thunder locusts cut with his arm knife, opened the box and revealed a pile of purple bamboo poles.
"Purple bamboo?" Locke's eyelids move. Every day, several magician wives are nearby, and his knowledge grows more and more. This magical plant containing water system and thunder elements is deeply loved by some magicians.
However, the value of Zihuang bamboo is also relatively low. It is slightly more precious than the thunder bamboo made into a fence by the thunder locust leech people, but it is also limited.
Another big box was also opened quickly. It was also a whole box of purple bamboo.
"Sir, we want to exchange the payment of Zihuang bamboo for the payment of blood locust stone." Yao said to Locke.
In popular words, it is to increase the tribute amount of Zihuang bamboo, hoping that Locke can reduce the tribute amount of their blood locust stone.
Locke patted the bamboo chair with his fingers and didn't give an answer quickly.
He has the power to collect materials from all races in the magnetic suspension mountain. It is up to him to decide how to collect and who to collect. Locke only needs to complete the total amount of materials required by the knight's palace when the floating ship of iron stronghold arrives every quarter.
Locke can help Yao. It won't cost him much. The point is how Yao thanks him.
These two boxes of Zihuang bamboo are Yao's gifts. It seems that the output of Zihuang bamboo in this tribal territory is very high. If you can take such a bribe, you can replace the supply of blood locust stone.
"You can reduce the amount of blood locust stone by half every quarter, but Zihuang bamboo needs to double the amount." Locke said in an indisputable tone.
"OK." Yao is equally cheerful.
Before Locke came here to take office, Yao's tribe colluded with the last garrison knight. Everyone took what they needed. It's no big deal.
Blood locust stone can improve the survival rate of thunder locust leech larvae. It is the most important material of thunder locust leech tribe.
The reason why yaothey tribe suffered heavy losses in the volcanic eruption a month ago, but they can still collect the payment of blazing stones is because of their large population base.
Enough blood locust stone powder fed to the larva of thunder locust leech can not only make the survival rate of the larva reach 70%, but also enhance the physique of thunder locust leech.
As for Locke's request to double the payment of Zihuang bamboo, in addition to filling the gap of blood locust stone, it is also convenient for him to bring it into his pocket.
This is a tacit deal. Although Locke is the manager of the magnetic suspension mountain sent by the knight's palace, he can't openly collect hundreds of thousands of creatures from the magnetic suspension mountain.
Doing too much will cause dissatisfaction from the above, or make the people miserable, so that the material turnover in the next quarter does not meet the standard, and some are the hardships Locke has to suffer.
After a short rest in Yao's tribe, Locke left the position of the next tribe and moved forward.
On the way, Locke pointed to the Yao Tribe he had just left and said to an, "remember, the amount of blood locust stone turned in by this tribe will be halved and the amount of purple brilliant bamboo will be doubled!"
Ann nodded stupidly and wrote it down.
No matter where you are, you really need a flexible brain to mix well.
It is said that the thunder grasshoppers have low wisdom. In addition to fertility and combat effectiveness, all other indicators are lower than those of ledmond people. Locke doesn't think so today.
Yao, the leader of the thunder locust leech tribe, is much smarter than the previous leaders of the ledmeng tribe who don't know how to change.
The magnetic suspension mountains are big and small. Locke thought he could complete the task of collecting thunder blazing stones from all tribes in one day. Unexpectedly, he was busy for two days before he finished all tribes.
It was also the strong suppression and command of many slave creatures in these two days that made all intelligent Aboriginal creatures in Cixuan mountain know the new first-class knight.
Back at the mountaintop house, Locke was tired to death, but he was not in a hurry to rest. Instead, he patiently listened to Ann's report and summarized the harvest of the past two days.
Throughout the magnetic suspension mountains, nearly 100 tribes and hundreds of thousands of creatures, Locke managed such a large place for the first time and had such high authority.
"Out of a total of 98 ethnic groups, 56 have completed the payment. 37 ethnic groups ensure to make up the payment within the next three weeks. Only five ethnic groups say they really can't complete it." Ann reports to Locke.
Locke is generally aware of the situation of the five ethnic groups. They are located in the center of the eruption of the volcanic group. They are lucky not to destroy all the ethnic groups. There are heavy casualties in the ethnic groups. It is useless for Locke to force them any more.
He can't turn these races into mining people out of thin air.
"The contributions of the five races can be reduced as appropriate." Locke touched his chin and said, "you can find other races to make up for the insufficient part. If the contributions of only five races are shared equally, they can also be completed."
"Yes." Ann replied.
Locke's practice made Ann feel that the knight was not as cruel as she thought. At least in some details, Locke did better than her last term. At least he didn't force the five races who really couldn't complete the task to a dead end.
There are also some subjective wishes of ANN, because three of the five ethnic groups that can not complete the task are ledemons.
Ann is a kind ledmon girl.
When he waved Ann away, Locke was free to lie down and have a rest.
The task of stationing in Cixuan mountain is not tiring. He only needs to pay attention to the material handover every quarter. Leichi stone is the top priority and must not be careless.
The importance of other kinds of materials should be at the first level, such as the two boxes of purple bamboo that Locke took bribes, and the blood locust stone urgently needed by the thunder locust and leech tribe.
Holding a light blue stone in the palm of his hand, Locke, who practices the fighting spirit of the wind system, can clearly feel the thunder and fire energy contained in it. What is the reason for the thunder blazing stone that attracted so much attention from the knight's palace.
After observing for a long time, I found nothing. Locke is not a person who likes to get into trouble. If he can't figure it out, he won't think about it. He just fell asleep.
He will stay here for another year. There is plenty of time for him to explore. Moreover, when he first arrives at the ectopic side, he has his own plans in addition to completing the tasks given by the knight's palace.
In his dream, Locke dreamed of women far away in another plane.
