Chapter 247: Chapter 199: Fruit Seeds, War Activities Begin_3

Now we can skip the intermediate steps, why can’t we?

"Wow! You change faces so fast."

Blue Ghost exclaimed in surprise, this Human Treasure Bag really could change faces huh.

"Go into detail."

Shang Jia pointed at the Cooking Fruit on the ground, eyes fixed on Chen Qing.

"The planting cost of the Cooking Fruit is very low, it has a short growth cycle, high yield, and doesn’t have too many environmental demands."

"But, I can’t guarantee that it will be suitable for the soils of Mist Sea and the Deserted Sea."

"It does require energy to grow."

The poverty of the poor three seas is reflected in every aspect, including the infertile soil, and even the seawater is barren.

Basically, there are very few edible fish species in the seas of the poor three seas.

Whereas in the Rich Three Seas, even the air is filled with energy.

If it can only grow in the Rich Three Seas and Central Sea, then what use is it for Shang Jia and her group to obtain the seeds?

The Mist Sea would still have to live in poverty, what they want to address is the survival of the civilians in certain parts of the Mist Sea, not the other seas.

"You have a way to solve this, don’t you."

Shang Jia bit into the candy in her mouth and gave a faint smile towards Chen Qing.

This wasn’t a question for Chen Qing, it was a demand for Chen Qing to solve it.

"How low exactly can this cost be that you speak of?"

Blue Ghost stroked his chin. He had no feelings for the Deserted Sea; he just wanted to make money.

Hai Boqiluo felt the same. She wasn’t even a human, and the Sea Clan’s diet differed from that of humans.

"Don’t change the subject."

Shang Jia brushed Blue Ghost aside with one hand, eyes still on Chen Qing.

Honestly, despite how the pirate and Bounty Hunter forces of the Deep Blue Sea now have names and fame, most are from the poor three seas.

However, those who are truly rooted in the Deep Blue domain and control it, are still people from the Rich Three Seas.

No matter whether they’re pirates or Bounty Hunters, their ultimate fate lies either in the sea or in the Scarlet Sea Domain.

They won’t stay in the Deep Blue Sea forever.

They are just passersby temporarily staying in the Deep Blue Sea.

Even pirate groups like Demon Dragon and Ghost Bone show some humanity, but many more like Bai Xian Jie Luo Mei oppress, slaughter, and traffic, rampaging everywhere.

Moreover, even Demon Dragon and Ghost Bone can’t avoid such things.

When they leave, new pirate forces will rise.

Good people do not become pirates.

Cooking Fruit cannot change this situation but can make life a little easier for those civilians.

"I can’t give you a definite answer."

Facing Shang Jia’s menacing gaze, Chen Qing did not back down, steadily looking at Shang Jia.

She never makes promises lightly, let alone agree to do something she can’t.

"..."

"So you’re saying you’re not incapable of doing it, right?"

You Gu interjected between the two, grasping the meaning in Chen Qing’s words and asked.

"What do you need? I can steal it back for you."

In this regard, You Gu was very confident.

When the Ghost Bone Pirate Group and the Demon Dragon Pirate Group join forces, there’s almost nothing they can’t steal.

"You can pick any of those machines."

Shang Jia also threw in her stake; she didn’t need most of those machines and could only sell them to some black market traders.

Generally, legitimate trade caravans would not want to deal openly with them pirates.

Of course, that’s just openly; behind the scenes, they’re all eager to do business with them because traders chase profits after all.

But, prices tend to be high when underhanded, so pirates like to call them black traders.

Chen Qing didn’t say a word; she was thinking.

This transaction was undoubtedly a good deal, and Chen Qing was lucky to catch Shang Jia and the others in a particularly generous mood.

This was also related to the Deep Blue War.

With the outbreak of the Deep Blue War, the poor three seas will only suffer more, the cost of living will rise, the death toll will soar, and the people from the Rich Three Seas will even like to use those from the poor three seas as cannon fodder.

Chen Qing should have agreed to the deal right away, but she had her own considerations.

If what she lacked was anything, it was definitely Extraordinary Points.

It was not difficult to obtain Extraordinary Points, especially under the current war situation.

However, the Cooking Fruit Grass had already evolved once, and it was not certain how many Extraordinary Points would be needed for the next evolution.

Just as Chen Qing was flashing this thought in her mind, suddenly, the long-absent system came online again.

It was as if it had heard the thoughts in Chen Qing’s mind.

[The Delu Gu family has conquered the Babalu Family, and the Deep Blue War has officially begun—]

[The system is currently updating—countdown to update 23:59:59]

[The contents of this system update are as follows:

Deep Blue War event.

Chen Qing and Zhao Fuli exchanged glances, and Shang Jia and a few others sharply detected something.
