Chapter 88 News from the Demon-forbidden Prison!
Everything in Modo City is piled up with money.
Sauron had basically never pursued any luxurious enjoyment personally. All the wealth he accumulated was either used to improve his strength or subsidize the consumption of Modo City. Otherwise, Sauron could definitely live a more luxurious life than the king. However, as a noble god, he did not take material enjoyment seriously at all. As long as he entered the kingdom of gods in the future, Sauron would do whatever he wanted, because there was a country's resources for him to squander.
Three days later.
It was a very peaceful day.
However, for the residents of Modo City, there are still many new things today, such as a ship docked in the air on the dock. At this moment, Modo Port has surrounded many people, not only the residents of Modo City, but also many merchants from the South Coast and other places. At this moment, they are all looking at the airboat in front of them with shock. They are not very unfamiliar with this thing, because from the perspective of laymen, there is a boat under the entire airboat, but the sails are replaced with balloons, and then a propeller-like thing is installed at the tail.
Businessmen are born with a keen vision of chasing profits.
So as soon as they saw the floating boat, they realized the huge business opportunities hidden in it, and then they inquire with their respective relationships with the senior management of Modo City. The officials of the city hall have met several groups of people who want to give gifts to find out the news today. Especially some old-fashioned chambers of commerce controlled by nobles on the South Coast, they directly asked whether the floating tower will be sold, and the price will not be a problem as long as they are willing to sell it.
Business opportunities are just one aspect.
On the other hand, the forces behind the merchants realized the strategic value of the floating boat.
Although this thing is far from comparable to the floating tower of Modo City, if a battlefield can fly, and if there are several cannons on it, it will be amazing combat power!
At least you can beat many enemies in the sky.
The situation was even better than Soren imagined, because on the first day of the air craft, many people expressed their interest in it.
Some nobles from the Chamber of Commerce from Arendale secretly stated that they could buy it for a large price.
At this time.
Soren and Golia, who are very short of money recently, are not polite. They saw that the reaction was good and doubled the price. The transformation of a standard floating boat directly requires 60,000 Jindlers.
The net profit is about 45,000 Jindler!
Even though Sauron opened such a high price, the renovation of the floating tower was still sold out in batches.
The Northland Witch Council asked for one. The Wizards Alliance asked for one (it was probably bought back and studied), followed by the nobles of Arendale customizing three (the wealthy Arendale had many old nobles who accumulated a lot of wealth), followed by an order from the Principality of the South, and two orders from the Chamber of Arendale in the Eastern Kingdoms.
Even the Chamber of Commerce secretly controlled by the Principality of Rosad secretly placed a batch of orders.
Naturally, Sauron will not be unable to get along with money. The technical content of the floating boat is not very high. The core is still in the application of energy and floating rings. The technology of the floating ring has been traded. However, the core materials are still in the hands of the production of [Seryin]. In other words, even if the Wizards Alliance and the Northland Witch Council know how to make the floating rings, the materials still need to be purchased from Modo City.
Don't worry about this thing, because the production of [Seyin] requires the synthesis of things from the Astral Realm, and the output of Modo City is not very high.
at last.
It is the big head from the Fortune Church. The Fortune Lady is worthy of being the richest god, and she directly placed a dozen orders. The twelve floating boats were 720,000 Jindlers, and Soren made a net profit of nearly 540,000 Jindlers.
I have to say that high-end alchemy technology is really profitable!
On the same day, Sauron received an order sent by the city hall officials and the deposits paid by many chambers of commerce forces. The amount reached a terrifying amount of more than 300,000 Jindler.
As long as all the current orders are completed, Sauron earned nearly 800,000 Jindler in one go!
It has far exceeded the tax on maritime trade.
"This is simply a robbery of money!"
Sauron looked at the order statistics in front of him happily and said to Golia beside him: "According to this progress, we can quickly collect the funds needed for the second phase of expansion."
Goria's expression was quite calm, and she said slowly: "The alchemy technology required by the airship is not high."
"The Northland Witch Council and the Wizards' Alliance will definitely imitate it. At most, they will have the ability to make their own float boats in just one or two months."
"Our future orders may only be the South Coast."
"The focus in the future should be to turn to the [Seyin] aspect. Making floating rings is absolutely inseparable from Seyin. Even if they understand the technology, they must buy Seyin from Modo City."
Upon hearing this, Sauron nodded and said, "It makes sense."
"But by then the number of floating boats should be quite large. Trade should have recovered at that time."
If you estimate conservatively.
Research on floating boats can bring about three million Jindler wealth to Modo City, and these are still cash-related. When trade resumes, Modo City's taxes will also increase, and various benefits will be continuously made up for Modo City's current huge capital consumption.
In fact, the Church of Wealth has always wanted to give money to Sauron.
But Sauron didn't want it. After taking the money from the Church of Fortune, he must give up a little in many aspects of Modo City. Sauron definitely doesn't want the Church of Fortune to get involved in everything inside Modo City.
It was already the limit of Sauron's development in the port, and the interior of Modo City must be absolutely controlled by him.
……………………
Everything is going on in an orderly manner.
Sauron received news from the high priest that after defeating a group of marine monsters, they successfully approached the Pirate Island. However, they have not yet landed on the island, because it has become the habitat of Kou Tao fishmen.
This is a large fishman.
Some Kou Tao fishmen stand up to more than two meters tall, which is much harder to deal with than dark scale fishmen or other fishmen species.
Looking at the entire sea area, the shark people can fight.
There was a message sent back by the high priest who was very interested in Sauron, which reads: "My Lord. I felt the magical power of chaos near Pirate Island."
"This is not a dead demon area, but I can feel a restriction."
"It's a bit like a mystery lock, but it's not certain yet. However, it's easy for low-level casters to cast spells here to fail, as if there is a force that imprisons the energy here."
"I suspect it's the reason for the Forbidden Demon Prison, but we will have to wait until we enter."
