I became a god by treasure hunting after arriving 500 years early-Chapter 754 - 544: What? Cannon, Airship! _2

Chapter 754 -544: What? Cannon, Airship! _2

Spirit Essence has many uses; it can accelerate the cultivation of the Extraordinary Spark, enhance the quality during a craftsman’s forging, and even provide energy for many Mind-based creations!

Ta Gang turned his head, indicating for him to calm down.

It’s always right to ask about the price first. At worst, you can just choose not to buy it.

Lu Yuan smiled: “We have plenty of things… feel free to take a look.”

The surrounding secretaries handed over several tablets, showcasing the list of supplies Green Grass City could provide.

Because things happened somewhat hastily, this list is actually not very complete, mostly based on Lanpeng Civilization’s Materialism system.

While adventuring in Pangu Continent, it’s always best to have a hidden hand.

The most advanced human technology products are not suitable for display; selling some outdated equipment also counts as clearing out inventory.

However, it’s evident that the magnitude of this list caused the two City Lords to be faintly shocked, momentarily stunned on the spot.

“What is this… a cannon?”

Ta Gang pointed at the black hole of the cannon barrel.

Duke Lanpeng loudly exclaimed: “Yes, this is the Sea Horse Ripper High Altitude Gun developed by our Lanpeng Clan, with a maximum range of 45 kilometers using regular rockets and 70 kilometers using guided rockets, an excellent choice for civilized warfare.”

“Oh, you might not know how long a meter actually is… here’s a ruler, measure it yourself.”

“Moreover, the price of the shells is very affordable and easy to maintain.”

“As for the power of the shells.”

“Boom!” A video image of the cannon firing appeared on the tablet, a bomb bursting open, creating a crater.

Both City Lords shuddered together.

They are aware of cannons, many cities possess them, effective for long-range shooting but lack utility in close combat.

However, what Green Grass City provided had much more power and range than they imagined.

“How much does it cost?”

“The price is negotiable; our intention is to set it at 1 Spirit Essence per unit.”

“That’s too expensive…” The price made their faces turn pale.

“Ahem, specifically, specialized negotiators need to discuss it; buying one cannon comes with hundreds of shells, anyway, the price is negotiable.”

“How many are there?”

Duke Lanpeng waved his hand grandly: “However many you need! Currently, there’s a stock of one thousand cannons, bulk purchase discounts! We deliver right to your door; it’s tough traveling in this icy, snowy land, doorstep delivery it is.”

Both City Lords were stunned, not because the cannon was too cheap… but why do you have so many cannons?

What concept is a thousand cannons? Just the annual maintenance cost is astronomical.

“Too expensive, too expensive,” Ta Gang muttered.

You must understand, 1 Spirit Essence is quite a large unit; a cannon from the Dwarf Clan costs about 0.4 Spirit Essence per unit.

Immediately after, a shiver ran through his body.

Doorstep delivery, this condition is quite generous— the Dwarf Clan doesn’t offer this service.

Now there are negotiation representatives from two cities!

They’re worried that if the other city’s representatives buy a heap of cannons and flattened their own city, what then?

The greatest profit in this world is robbery; the soul can indeed be squeezed to produce Spirit Essence!

Divine Skills are even more valuable!

One Divine Skill is worth dozens of Spirit Essences!

This principle they understand; spending a hundred Spirit Essence to buy cannons, to loot other civilizations, is certainly a huge profit.

The two City Lords exchanged glances, intangible sparks clashing in the air.

Don’t buy cannons to rob me! Otherwise, don’t blame me for turning ruthless!

And don’t you rob me either!

Finally, the two calmed down, taking a few deep breaths.

No way; after all, they are compatriots, there’s even intermarriage between cities, it won’t come to squeezing souls.

But the next image shocked their hearts once more.

“Is this… an airship? A dirigible?”

This massive steel and concrete creation rose straight from the ground, carrying tens of thousands of tons of cargo at once.

The thick hull, gigantic tonnage, and roaring propellers evoke a full sense of security.

“Phew—” they couldn’t help but exhale a mouthful of murky air.

In the Northern Territory’s icy and snowy environment, transportation is extremely inconvenient.

Most civilizations still use Carrying Beasts, sleds to transport goods!

But even if supernatural beasts are stronger, how much cargo can they carry? A few tons at a time is the limit!

Therefore, powerful civilizations choose to build rail trains; however, the weather often snows, the maintenance cost for rails is high, so rails are usually only used to connect mines and cities.

Considering all this, the best way to transport over long distances between cities is naturally the airship!

To avoid natural disasters, the larger and heavier the airship, the better!

When a blizzard hits, the airship can land on the ground for a respite.

Heading off again after the storm.

One might say, the airship is the economic foundation of powerful civilizations!

Without civilization trade, living in isolation inevitably leads to poverty; there’s no way out.

“What’s the cargo capacity of this airship of yours?” the Great Scholar asked.

“You can have as much as you want,” Lu Yuan answered resolutely.

Even Floating Cities, they’ve sent out two; the tonnage of such Floating Fortresses can indeed be infinitely increased. freewebnøvel.com

“Lord, you must be joking. How could the cargo capacity be infinitely large? Can your materials expand infinitely?”

Since this fortress was the property gifted by the Lanpeng people, Duke Lanpeng was to explain: “You might have misunderstood; this Floating Fortress is made with ‘Pandora Crystal Stone,’ not an ordinary hot air balloon. The basic principle is the anti-gravity principle of the Pandora Crystal Stone.”
