Chapter 294 Credit Rating

Jiang Xi stood silently at the door.

If her beastly husbands hadn't all been in the courtyard, she would have suspected she'd gone to the wrong place.

However, she became even more silent after looking into Lu Liufeng's room next door.

Because Lu Liufeng's house is still the same as before.

Jiang Xi then looked at the houses of the other beastmen one by one, and found that only her house had been beautifully decorated, while the others' houses remained unchanged.

In fact, the palaces in the royal court were spacious and bright, the bedding inside was soft and warm, and all the necessary utensils and furniture were provided. They were far better than their homes in the Lion Roar tribe.

But without comparison, there is no harm.

After Jiang Xi's house was specially decorated, their house seemed bare in comparison.

Mu Ling jumped directly into the female master's room and rolled around on the carpet.

"The female master's house is so soft. Can I live in the female master's house every day from now on?"

His wolf-like eyes gleamed as he looked at the female master, full of anticipation.

Yi Yuexi leaned against the door with her arms crossed and let out a soft sigh.

"You're dreaming."

After saying that, he raised a fox-like eyebrow and looked at the female master.

"My lady, may I sleep inside tonight?"

Before Jiang Xi could speak, Mu Ling's mocking laughter rang out again.

"You're really dreaming!"

Yi Yuexi glared at him through gritted teeth.

"Mu Ling! You've crossed the river and burned the bridge! What kind of beastman are you?!"

Mu Ling chuckled.

"We're clearly competing on skill; you're simply not as good as me!"

"Come out! Let's fight if you dare! You're at the fourth level now, I'm not bullying you!"

"Heh, bullying me? You're dreaming. With your superpower, all you can do is give the female master iced juice."

The two of them, one inside the door and the other outside, started bickering like elementary school kids.

Jiang Xi sighed deeply and turned to leave.

With so many husbands with different personalities in the family, it's impossible for things not to be lively.

At this moment, Lu Liufeng placed some things on the dining table in the courtyard and asked the female master about them.

"My lady, I've been surveying the royal court lately. While the Rainbow Spider Clan's fabrics are colorful and beautiful, they're not very durable. The Gray Crocodile Spider Clan's fabrics, on the other hand, are only available in a single shade of gray, but they're more durable and suitable for the current Lion's Roar Tribe..."

During this time, Lu Liufeng was not idle either.

Because the female ruler wanted to develop the Lion's Roar tribe, in addition to the inn introduced by Riley, there was also a lot of daily trade that needed to be done.

Those spiders skilled in weaving were unwilling to open shops and trade in the Lion's Roar Tribe, so they had to form transport teams to regularly come to the Giant Tree Forest to transport goods back.

The materials from the Rainbow Spider Clan are in high demand and sell well. They don't even consider Lu Liufeng's idea of ​​cooperating with them.

Later, when they learned that Lu Liufeng was the beast husband of the female envoy, their attitude changed drastically. They said that as long as one of their Rainbow Spider Clan beastmen could marry into the tribe, the Rainbow Spider Clan would send a group of its people to the Lion Roar Tribe to weave cloth and open a shop.

Lu Liufeng refused.

First of all, he wouldn't force these random orcs onto the female master for personal gain.

Secondly, the fabric of the Spider Clan is expensive and not durable, making it unsuitable for the Lion Roar Tribe, whose members fight every day.

Later, he also investigated the gray crocodile spider clan.

Their materials are only gray and rather hard, which is not very popular in the Giant Tree Forest. As soon as he approached them, they immediately showed 200% enthusiasm for cooperation, and if the quantity was large, they were willing to send people to the Lion Roar Tribe to deliver goods regularly.

Lu Liufeng told the female master about these things one by one, but afterwards, he was also somewhat troubled.

"Lion Roar Tribe has no goods that can be delivered to the Giant Tree Forest in exchange for Shell Coins. We do not have enough Shell Coins to purchase anything."

Jiang Xi stroked her chin thoughtfully.

Although the food in the Jehol Valley is plentiful, it is too far from the large tribes in the Giant Tree Forest, and it would probably spoil before it even reaches them.

Animal hides are mostly produced and sold locally, not so much that they can be exchanged for money.

At this moment, Yang came in carrying a brightly colored piece of cloth. Seeing the table full of things, he spoke.

"Lu Liufeng, let me set up the table, and you can move your things around."

Jiang Xi glanced at the fabric in his hand and felt a great sense of luxury.

Lu Liufeng had just explained to her how expensive the Rainbow Spider Clan's fabric was; with such vibrant colors, he wondered how many shell coins it must cost!

What a wealthy and powerful royal court!

However... when it comes to being extremely wealthy...

Jiang Xi's eyes lit up.

She quickly helped move the things off the table and asked Yang very warmly.

"Yang, I want to borrow a large sum of money from the royal court in the name of the tribe. Do you think Camus will agree?"

Yang gave her a strange look.

"Why don't you just talk to Wang directly? Why are you asking me?"

Jiang Xi knew this, of course, but she could have asked Yang to sound him out beforehand.

"Could you check it out for me first?"

If Camille's request is too outrageous, there's no need for her to speak up.

Yang shook his head. "I won't ask."

He tried to talk as little as possible about Jiang Xi's matter, because if the king got jealous again and made him go down to receive a beating, he would be in a real predicament.

Yang refused Jiang Xi, so she had to ask him herself.

Because the Giant Tree King moved in that evening and had dinner with her, they could talk directly at the dinner table.

As always, Camus's words left Jiang Xi speechless.

"You are my mistress, I am all yours, and the entire royal court is naturally yours too. Whatever you want, just take it."

Jiang Xi: "We can pay interest."

Camus frowned: "What is interest?"

Jiang Xi: "It means I repay more than I borrowed."

Camus nodded thoughtfully.

"Good idea."

He turned his head to look at Yang.

"It's time to sign a new timber contract with Xinghai Plain. You should draft a new contract based on the interest rate."

Yang reminded him, "Your Majesty, the Star Sea Plains are trading prey with us."

Camus frowned.

"What about the Holy City?"

Yang: "The Holy City has loans."

Camille: "Then let's add a contract for interest repayment. They'll be passing through the Royal Court on their way to the Cursed Lands, so we can have them sign the latest contract then."

Although his memories of the Holy City were vague, he still disliked it.

Whether they release the female or force him and the female to dissolve their marriage in the Holy City.

After giving his instructions, he added something else.

"Just send someone to collect the shell coins the female wants."

Jiang Xi pursed her lips, having no choice but to resort to a roundabout approach.

“What I mean is, it’s not me borrowing it, it’s the Lion Roar tribe borrowing it.”

Upon hearing this, Camus frowned almost imperceptibly.

Yang spoke at the opportune moment.

"The credit rating of the seven tribes in the Cursed Lands is 0."

"In the past thirty years, the Wolf-Dog, Sheepdog, and Scorpion-Tail tribes have borrowed food from the Giant Tree Forest six times, and none of them have returned it."

"The orcs of the Sky-Flying Tribe have been abducting females from various tribes in the Giantwood Forest year after year. Numerous tribes have protested to the royal court, demanding that the orcs of the Sky-Flying Tribe, even those with the necessary permits, be forbidden from entering the Giantwood Forest again..."
