Money, wealth.
This was a big problem!
After carrying out the Floating-Space City plan, Søren suddenly felt that his generous finances were a little tight. Not to mention the very expensive experimental progress of Gloria and Fallen Witch, just the first phase of the Floating-Space City plan had already cost a lot of money. To use a metaphor, building a Floating-Space Tower was equivalent to building an aircraft carrier, which was only a little difficult for a country. Then building a Floating-Space City was directly preparing to build a space battleship (Space Fortress). The speed at which all kinds of research materials burned money was simply terrifying!
For example, Gloria and Fallen Witch.
Even if there was no progress in their research, at least 30,000 Kindler's materials would be burned in a month.
Looking at the entire material plane, only Søren and Modor City could afford it. If it were other forces, they would have a financial collapse in an instant. Just ordinary experiments needed to burn 360,000 Kindler's materials in a year. If there was a breakthrough in the experimental results, then the cost would increase exponentially.
Søren was fine before he started the Floating-Space City plan.
After he started it, he felt that even if he was a god, it was really not easy to make money to support these two women who burned money like water!
However.
If Gloria and Fallen Witch were successful, the benefits would be unimaginable. It could almost be said that the progress of the entire civilization would be pushed forward.
In short.
What Søren and Modor City were doing now was almost single-handedly promoting the progress of civilization in the material plane.
So the speed at which they spent money was naturally imaginable!
Maybe it was because they had been spending money too fast recently. Søren wanted to pull Princess Royal in. Arendelle still had a lot of wealth anyway. It would be a waste to put it in the treasury. It would be good to use it to climb the alchemy technology tree.
As soon as the idea appeared, Søren felt that it was very feasible.
So, when he had an in-depth conversation with Gloria in the evening, he mentioned his idea a little.
He didn't expect Gloria to agree directly.
Moreover, Gloria was more knowledgeable than Søren.
At that time.
Gloria said, "That's a great idea! However, Arendelle also had his own noble forces. If there is no visible wealth, they may not be willing to take out so much wealth. "
Speaking of which.
Gloria got up from the bed naked. As the velvet quilt slid down, her beautiful body was exposed to the air. However, the two of them weren't in the mood to have sex. Gloria waved her hand and took out a piece of paper. She handed it to Søren and said, "This is what I saw when I was flipping through some books."
"Look!"
"This is called an airship!"
"It was used for a long time in the Arcane Empire! It looks a bit like a ship, but the sails have been replaced with balloons, and a small floating ring has been installed at the bottom. "
"Currently, the entire sea is not as safe as before."
"Whether it's the south coast's trade, Arendelle's trade, or the eastern countries' trade, it's not something that ordinary merchant ships can satisfy."
"That's why I'm thinking of trying to modify a batch of airships."
"If we can make a batch of samples, the trade between the south coast and Arendelle can be restored, and may even surpass the past."
Airship?
Søren looked at it and couldn't help but be stunned. Wasn't this thing an airship to him?
Why didn't he think of it?
After looking at the paper, Søren's mind suddenly became active. He pondered for a moment and said, "How much is the cost? Is it troublesome? "
Gloria shook her head and said, "The cost is mainly focused on the floating ring."
"Currently, we've figured out how to make thorium, but the cost is still above 15,000 Kindler."
"For specific implementation, we can quote more than 30,000 Kindler."
"I believe that many Chambers of Commerce and nobles are willing to pay this money, and the daily maintenance of the airship can also bring in a sum of income. We still have many witches who lack a daily job."
Maybe she felt that she was spending too much money.
Even Gloria began to think about how to make some money to support the family. She was quite virtuous.
"Good idea!"
Søren put down the paper and put his hand on Gloria's full chest. After kissing her fiercely, he said in a deep voice, "If the airship appears, it can completely make up for the current sluggish trade."
"And the trade in Mordor city can no longer be limited to sex."
"That's a great idea!"
"Maybe we can also contact the Church of Wealth. I think the Church of Wealth must be very interested in this thing that can improve trade."
Mordor city had a large number of warships and merchant ships.
But because of the outbreak of the Avatar Crisis, sea trade was not as easy as before. If some of them could be transformed into airships, then all trade could be restored and safer than before. Because there were fewer enemies in the sky, the only trouble was that the control requirements were much higher than before.
"I still need to think about how to use this thing!"
Søren had a lot of ideas as soon as he opened his mind. The airship must still be in his hands. He pondered for a moment and said, "You can start experimenting in the next two days."
"If it succeeds, I'll go to Arendelle in person after a while."
"At that time, we can first transform our own batch of warships and merchant ships. The trade in the eastern countries has shrunk by nearly 60%. We must pull these back."
"I think the Northern Witch Council will also be very interested in this thing."
"You can contact the Eye of the North in person. The airship must need spellcasters to carry out daily maintenance. If we want to expand the scale, we can't do it alone."
Gloria also nodded when she heard the words, but there was a hint of blush on her charming face. She raised her hand and patted Søren's fingers, and whispered, "It needs spellcasters to carry out daily maintenance."
"And it's best to have a spellcaster with you when sailing."
"We only need to firmly grasp the core of the floating ring and the magic energy drive part of this thing. The rest can be handed over to the Northern Witch Council."
"But!"
"This thing also has a drawback!"
"That is, the cost is too high. It is only suitable for transporting high-value goods. Before the problem of magic energy supply is solved, the profit brought by ordinary trade of goods may not be as good as the consumption."
Søren thought for a moment and said, "These can be done slowly. The most important thing for this thing at present is to transport strategic materials and the things that are currently in short supply."
"Let's see Arendelle's reaction first and then consider the next step."
After that, Søren picked up Gloria. She provided such a good idea today. Søren felt that he needed to reward her.
