Chapter 2551

This way, during rest periods, they could gather to discuss problems collectively, and also summarize the issues they couldn't solve, leaving them for Zhao Chi to answer.

Moreover, when Zhao Chi came to answer questions, since their time was unified, all the female craftsmen could be present to hear.

This was the most efficient method.

After all, Zhao Chi was only one person, and his time was limited.

And the vast majority of questions could only be answered by Zhao Chi alone.

Now the female craftsmen were all practicing, so Zhao Chi waited nearby for a while.

Very quickly.

The time of one Quick-Work Talisman passed.

Sounds of relieved breathing could be heard everywhere.

Zhao Chi had Qi Yue gather all 500 female blacksmiths together to answer their questions collectively.

He estimated there wouldn't be few questions.

Sure enough, truly everyone had questions.

Right at the start, almost all the blacksmiths raised their hands.

Zhao Chi first called on Ding Dang to ask questions, bringing out all the common issues first.

Answering one common question could resolve the doubts of quite a few people.

Then he would answer individual questions separately.

Zhao Chi said: "There are many questions where I don't know the principles either, but I know what to do to increase the success rate and the premium-product rate. You only need to follow my answers to do it. As for why, you can study it slowly when you have time later. Understand?"

"Understood!"

The female workers' answering voices were equally crisp and uniform.

Zhao Chi carefully and meticulously answered the questions with patience.

The female workers grew more and more puzzled the more they listened.

After all, it really went against intuition; Zhao Chi himself felt it was far-fetched when he said it, but the fact was that it could be done this way.

Zhao Chi didn't explain further, just told them to follow the steps.

After hearing this, many female workers naturally began to try Zhao Chi's method.

Of course it succeeded!

Those steps passed smoothly.

Although there were still flaws in technique, those were merely issues of proficiency and could be improved through practice.

The female craftsmen truly clicked their tongues in wonder, and their admiration for Zhao Chi increased a bit more.

It consumed a full hour and a half right there in the armory.

He answered as many questions as possible.

Immediately after, Zhao Chi hurried without stopping to the clothing factory.

Similarly, the clothing factory consumed even longer, a full two hours.

He answered several key questions.

Although it took a long time, and he would have to spend this much time answering questions every day going forward,

this time investment was worth it.

Finally, it was done.

From the recent rest until now when the questions were all answered, nearly six hours had passed in total.

But there was no further movement from the Eternal Tree.

Zhao Chi had originally thought the young sapling spirit, still in its infancy, would get hungry quickly.

But that wasn't the case at all.

There was no change at the scene in Chaoge Town, and when Zhao Chi checked the sapling spirit's information in the system, it had not entered a hungry state again.

It seemed more hassle-free than imagined.

That wasn't bad either.

It was already 8 PM now.

There was still a lot of work.

Although there were two more bloodlines that could be decomposed, he still hadn't bought the Racial Gene Expansion Stone, so he'd hold off for now.

After all, the "Slick Skin" decomposed from the "Water Sprite" gene hadn't been improved yet; even if he decomposed more good genes, there would be no slots.

Moreover, the current genes of the Taoyuan Tribe were all very good, and Zhao Chi didn't want to replace any of them.

Let's talk about it later.

He had originally intended to enter Qi Yue's costume-making.

But...

The system sent another notification.

The bounty for Tier-3 materials was complete!

Upon seeing this news, Zhao Chi was also a bit surprised.

That fast?

It was only just past 8 now; the task hall hadn't closed yet.

Then he'd hurry over to turn it in.

Before leaving, Zhao Chi said to Qi Yue:

"Qi Yue, I'm going out for a bit.

"Help me go notify Gu Yan, have her personally select 5 professional farmers to specifically tend to the sapling.

"Later, based on the saplings' growth, let her decide on her own to add personnel, but they must be our own people with a loyalty of 10 points; don't use slave laborers.

"And likewise, farmers must be on watch and tending them around the clock.

"I'll be back in a bit."

Qi Yue nodded: "Understood, my lord. I'll go notify them right now."

Having said that, Qi Yue immediately headed for Chaoge Town.

Zhao Chi also teleported to the Great World in an instant.

Shubei Town.

Nights in the Great World were still rather dark.

The main road in Shubei Town was brightly lit and even more crowded than during the day.

Various stalls along the road had nearly spilled out onto the street itself, with the aromas of all kinds of food and barbecue drifting everywhere.

Diners sat nearby, chatting loudly and laughing heartily, seeming quite free.

It's winter now, after all.

How is it just like a summer night?

Zhao Chi glanced at the side path nearby — it was very dim.

Only one spirit-energy lamp every great distance apart, with torches still serving as the main lighting.

It gave people a distinctly unsafe feeling.

Perhaps it was actually very safe.

But Zhao Chi didn't want any complications, so he made his way the whole way via the main road, dodging and weaving, and arrived at the Mission Hall.

The Mission Hall at night was still packed with people.

Unlike during the day, the smell of alcohol and barbecue inside had increased quite a bit.

Some people were drunk and babbling nonsense.

Quite a few others were chatting loudly.

The environment inside was even more chaotic than during the day.

The situation on the second floor was much better.

The lords on this floor were relatively quieter.

The moment Zhao Chi connected to the Mission Hall's system, a staff member approached with a smile.

"Hello, Mr. Since your quota with us has reached the standard, you may go to the third-floor VIP room to take on missions."

Zhao Chi was very surprised.

But it was also within reason.

Today, after all, he had delivered a huge number of missions at this Mission Hall, with the total amount reaching over 200,000 gold coins.
