Chapter 1593: Her Her Her Her (1)

All items have been exchanged.

Zhao Chi and Su Qin immediately teleported back to Clear Bamboo Town.

Inside Clear Bamboo Town, the wooden walls had been completely built, separating those male soldiers outside.

The female elves were bare-legged, far freer than before. Quite a few elves were dripping wet, clearly just back from the Carefree Spring in Peach Blossom Village.

Seeing Zhao Chi, the elves greeted him one after another in soft, high-pitched voices.

A bevy of beauties, even more attentive than his own female villagers.

Su Qin was delighted to see them like this: "How about it? I tell them every day that their outfits were all given by you, that the Carefree Spring is also your gift for them to enjoy, and even their safety is under your protection."

Zhao Chi was a little surprised.

"There's no need for that, it sounds a bit excessive."

Su Qin shook her head: "It's not excessive at all, and it's all true. In the future, if you need anything, you can deploy them at any time. Menkending Society will definitely listen to you very well. Even if you transfer them directly to your territory, there won't be a problem."

"Got it, but I won't do that. After all, you're an independent lord too."

Su Qin sighed: "Sometimes I really envy Sister Gu Qing and the others. I don't want to be an independent lord either; I want to be your subordinate."

"You are my subordinate lord right now, and my wife."

Su Qin laughed: "Wife? Hehe."

"Stop giggling foolishly. Let me ask you—if I convert you into a Peach Blossom Villager, truly making you one of my own, would you be willing?"

"Huh? Is it really possible?"

Su Qin's voice rose as she asked in pleasant surprise.

Seeing her reaction, Zhao Chi already knew the answer.

"It's not real, I'm just asking. There's only this possibility."

"Oh…I thought it really was possible. Of course I'm willing. If you can, convert me right away."

"Doing that might cause you to lose your independence."

"What? I don't want independence, I just want to stick with you."

"Then I understand. Let's start the improvement. Give me the blueprint and the improvement book."

"Okay~"

Su Qin happily handed them over.

At the same time, activate the "Commission Improvement Book," selecting Zhao Chi as the target.

A dim light drifted and swayed.

Zhao Chi felt himself merge with Clear Bamboo Town, as if this Clear Bamboo Town were his own territory.

This effect would last for a period of time before failing, or until Zhao Chi completed the improvement of one technology.

Zhao Chi first clicked to use the finger-cot blueprint, and Su Qin immediately received a notification:

【Congratulations, your territory already has mastered the "Finger Cot" crafting method】

Zhao Chi didn't waste time, quickly using the "Finger Cot Improvement Book" and "Finger Cot Super Improvement Book" in sequence.

Light blazed.

Two streams of light intertwined and rose into the sky.

Finally, an image of a finger cot condensed before Zhao Chi's eyes.

This finger cot looked very much like half an incomplete glove, with most of it cut away, only covering the thumb, index finger, and middle finger positions.

Improvement options appeared.

【Please choose an improvement direction】

【Finger Cot Improvement Points】 20 points

【1. Finger Strength 10%】 10 points

【2. Fatigue -30%】 10 points

【3. Pain -30%】 5 points

【4. Comfort 10%】 2 points

【5. Cleanliness 20%】 2 points

The lowest cost among the options was still 2 points.

So these 20 improvement points could only max out one of them.

That's a bit few.

He didn't know what the specific materials for making the finger cot were.

Looking at the image, most of it should be cloth, with leather at the fingertip positions.

"Su Qin, hurry to the tailor shop and see what the materials for this finger cot are, then tell me."

"Huh? I'll go right away."

Su Qin twisted her perky bottom, darted into the tailor shop in a flash, then darted back out in a flash.

"The main material is cloth at 80%, plus 18% leather, and 2% rare material. I'll send it to you to see."

For cloth, it could basically be replaced by Gu Qing Silk.

As for the rare material, Zhao Chi also had plenty.

"That's great, wait for me."

After saying that, Zhao Chi disappeared directly.

Leaving a dumbfounded Su Qin behind.

But soon, Zhao Chi appeared, holding a large bundle of white, transparent silk thread in his hand.

Su Qin was still standing in place: "Zhao Chi, you…went to get silk?"

"This isn't silk, I'll explain later. Do you have any master-tier tailors among your captives?"

"There are a few, all given to me by you, but they're still prisoners right now, very low compliance, and none of them have been converted yet."

"Any expert-tier tailors?"

"Same situation, but a few can barely be converted. Want me to convert them?"

"... Forget it, expert-tier probably won't cut it..."

Zhao Chi frowned as he looked at Su Qin.

Su Qin had absolutely no idea what was going on.

She watched Zhao Chi frown, reached out, and gently stroked the space between his brows: "Don't frown, alright? Whatever it is, you can tell me. Even if your improvements aren't perfect, it really doesn't matter."
