Chapter 348: Bridge V
With a 'pop', Sky Blue almost fell from her stool.
She pressed her hands on the table and asked exaggeratedly, "How much?" Millions? ”
Fang Yu glanced at his character panel, and his tone pretended to be very 'flat', even very 'calm', and nodded. "More than six million to be exact."
In fact, he was already proud in his heart, and this was a lot of money, even more than the total money that the Seven Seas Brigade had earned since its inception.
Doesn't that show that he is capable as a captain?
On the side, Sylvide only lowered her head and smiled secretly—these were probably the childish spirits of the captain she regarded as the captain.
But Tianlan didn't care so much, and reached over curiously to cover his forehead: "Brother Ed, why did you start daydreaming." ”
Fang Yu blocked this guy's hand: "What a daydream, this is true." ”
Sky Blue laughed three times.
Fang Yu always felt that this little girl didn't give herself face as a group leader, which was really unbearable.
Sylvid echoed with a smile at this time: "Speaking of which, the Seven Seas Traveler has spent a lot of money this month, and the captain's money is too timely. ”
"Ah, Miss Sylvede even believes such a thing, this is too much to spoil the captain."
"Sky Blue!"
The latter laughed and fled.
She then ran to Alyssa's side, chirping.
Miss Nightingale only smiled and nodded, and looked here from time to time—they had made a fortune—which, as Sylvid had said, was a relief for the need.
When Fang Yu saw this scene, he didn't know that he was being teased. Tianlan, this guy is as good as a ghost, how could she not know that she would not joke about such a thing, she knew from the beginning that it was true, but she was deliberately making fun of him.
Fang Yu couldn't help but be a little annoyed, Luo Yu was not here, Atila was not there, this little girl was going to heaven.
The windfall in the treasury of Bein Fortress was more than expected, and the total amount of the jewels was thirteen million lisel.
Although it was half a penny, the value of the jewelry in it was not so equal, so Fang Yu finally took 6.4 million, while Lu Fu's shield was less, but they were also quite satisfied, and they didn't dare to ask for more.
A few days ago, he had feared that Count Nurman and the Sand King would seek him the money, but later he realized that he had overthought it - the money seemed astronomical to him, but it was nothing to Istania and Bein. It would cost millions of miles for the Grand Guild to arm a main member, and a city in Bein could not be poorer than a guild.
But this gap between the rich and the poor is really excessive.
Fang Yu couldn't help but sigh, when he was in the Dawn Star, the average monthly income of each person in the adventure group was only a few thousand lissells. All the assets of the whole group together will not exceed one million thousand miles, and as for the cash, it will be even less. These 'small money' that others can't look down on are already astronomical in his opinion.
However, Fang Yu believes that one day he will also take these millions of miles seriously, and the Seven Seas Brigade will always have that day. He secretly cheered himself up in his heart.
Of course, the Dawn Star is a special case after all.
Or rather, a special case.
Adventurers are such a group of people, always fantasizing about discovering some treasure of ancient times and getting rich overnight.
When they can't sustain themselves, they will go to the nobles or the royal family to sponsor them, or take a short-term commission to talk about getting by.
As for the normal day, most of them do not necessarily have more income than ordinary people, and even less than ordinary people in big cities like Al Pahin.
However, with the money, the construction progress of the Seven Seas Traveler can at least be greatly advanced, and the building materials that need to be considered repeatedly in the past can also be used directly. The current Seven Seas Traveler is just a seventh-class floating ship, so small that it is almost pocket-sized, and millions of miles away from building one, not to mention that they have prepared so much in advance.
Fang Yu even planned to upgrade the Seven Seas Traveler directly.
Of course, the shape of the keel has been determined, and it can't be changed. But some of the cabins that had been hesitant in the past were ready to go.
First of all, he planned to come directly to a potions cultivation room, and if he wanted to use the auxiliary elves, he would use the most expensive wood spirits, one million, and put the potions cultivation room, the infirmary, and the resurrection room together, as long as it was properly taken care of, the Seven Seas Brigade could continuously produce all kinds of potions by itself in the future.
The most basic potion cultivation room can at least solve the supply problem of mana potions and life potions below level forty-five, and the community says that the worst monthly output is thirteen bottles when a novice takes care of it, and they also have a druid, so how can they not fall to the worst level, right?
The frequency of adventures of the Seven Seas Brigade now seems to be about once every three or four months, and in a few months, hundreds of bottles of various potions can be stored, which is enough for a mission.
Unlike now, they rarely use potions in battle, life potions, and mana potions have never been seen, and they are inserted with a few magic storage crystals when they go out, which is equivalent to treating him, an alchemist, as a mobile power bank. While this is indeed a solution, the Reservoir Crystal is heavy and heavy, and carrying too many of them will have a serious impact on the team's mobility.
What's more, there are all kinds of buff potions, and rich guilds drink them like water. And Fang Yu thought about it carefully, the only type of BUFF potion he had drunk from Dorifen to the present seemed to be an invisibility potion, which was still given to him by others.
Fortunately, he had long been accustomed to a life of poverty, and he didn't think it was a big deal.
Like the shield of Lufu, you can't move a small task at every turn, and you have to prepare a lot of things such as fixed-point teleportation scrolls and glider backpacks, and the Seven Seas Brigade really can't play it.
But after reaching level 20, the danger level of adventures of the same level will be greatly increased, and potions are indispensable and cannot be saved. Therefore, the Strange Thing Workshop can be dispensed with, but the Potions Cultivation Room can still be made if necessary. Although it is a large investment, it can save a lot of money for the adventure party in the long run.
And it will make future tasks easier.
Then there's the construction of the storage warehouse.
As the name suggests, this thing is used to house flexible builds.
After all, the Seven Seas Traveler is a special floating ship, and the loading of the Fairy Heart and the Tata Residence are determined, and it is actually a very huge dragon knight construct - the fairy dragon knight build. This type of dragon knight build is inherently designed to assist combat craftsmen and control a large number of flexible build battles.
It's like a drone carrier.
And the mothership, naturally, needs a hangar -
The Battle-Tinkerer is arguably a regular in air-sea combat, as most of the Battle-Tinkerer's flexible builds can fly - even land-based structures such as the Walker can be fitted with flight components to adapt them to the air-sea environment.
However, the flexible construction of the combat craftsman is not small in size, and even the higher the level of flexible construction, the larger the volume. Although it is not impossible to fit on a large floating ship, it will take up a lot of space on board, and second, it is obviously a time-consuming and laborious task to transfer the structure to the combat deck during battle.
And venturing on the air and sea is not the same as venturing on land, which is full of towns, and in today's advanced alchemy, there is always a place to replenish parts and wear and tear. But once out to sea, it will take ten days and half a month at every turn, so most of the combat craftsmen will prepare a lot of spare structures, and these spare structures will definitely not be able to be stored one by one with information crystals.
Fang Yuan's crystal interior space is already ridiculously large, but it is only enough to fit one Alfin Twin, one Kraken Build, plus a few Angels and some small Builds, and it is already full.
At the same time, he didn't buy this crystal, and he couldn't afford it, and this thing would cost hundreds of thousands of miles on the market. And if he had two spare builds for each of his flexible builds, he would have at least three information crystals, plus spare parts, and the information crystals alone would be about to catch up with one-fifth of the value of the 'Seven Seas Traveler'.
The Seven Seas Brigade is clearly not extravagant enough to do so.
What's more, on a large floating ship, there must be more than one combat craftsman, each combat craftsman has its own spare structure, and the information crystal required is only an astronomical amount.
Although the Seven Seas Brigade only has one combat craftsman, Fang Yuan, but with the abilities of Miss Tata and the Fairy Dragon Knight, this problem is actually even more serious-
Fortunately, since such a fact exists, the predecessors are obviously not stupid, and have long considered such a situation. The biggest reason why information crystal is expensive is because it is too small, and in the smallest possible ether structure, it can contain the most material transformation information, which is the real value of information crystal.
But large-scale information crystals are actually not that expensive.
Assuming that the two-person tall information crystal, and the internal storage space is the same size as the one in Fang Yuan's hand, its price is only one-tenth of the former at most.
With a few of these crystals, Fang Plover could even store as many flexible builds as an army on the Seven Seas Traveler - if he could afford to buy as many flexible builds, of course.
Originally, he didn't think about constructing a storage warehouse, because this thing was still worth a little money, and the information crystal was very fragile, especially under the conditions of such a large weight and volume. Of course, building a storage warehouse is not to find a warehouse, just put a few such large crystals in, but also to design a protection system and a delivery platform.
The latter is actually the key, and how to summon a flexible construct from the information crystal is still a problem of how to throw it from the ship to the ship. The construction storage library is located on one or both sides of the hull, directly connected to a gate on the side of the ship, which is equivalent to a hangar that can be opened to the outside.
This set of gate and platform system is the big one, about worth hundreds of thousands of miles, and Fang Yu didn't even think about it in the past.
But now, you don't have to think about it so much.
After all, this is one of the Seven Seas Traveler's job.
The guy who eats, of course, is as reliable as possible.
Coupled with the two special cabins, the Seven Seas Traveler that Fang Yu originally envisioned was almost perfect.
As for more special cabins, he didn't think about it for the time being - not that there was no money, but after adding basic cabins such as chart rooms, anchor rooms, living cabins, and resurrection rooms, there was not much space on the ship. Originally, the Seven Seas Traveler was just a seventh-class boat, and there wasn't much room for it.
However, the basic cabin can also be upgraded to another round on the original basis.
For example, more fire- and impact-resistant materials can be used, the aether lines can be upgraded, and the magic engine can be replaced with the latest model to maximize the power of the fairy heart, although it may be increased from one percent to two percent. But it's twice as good.
Anchor chains, cables, marine balancing systems, cranes, dinghys, wind element detectors, can all be replaced, although these things are horribly expensive, and high-end goods are still just as unaffordable, but at least there is no need to buy second-hand ones.
Fang Yu calculated carefully, and suddenly felt that seven million Riesel didn't seem to be as much as he imagined.
He also looked at the account of the past half a month—it had been sent from Tansnir by Attila from the side—the Seven Seas Traveler was still only in the keel laying stage, but the shipyard was already spending money.
He realized that he had made some mistakes in his previous estimation of the price of shipbuilding, and he was counting the average price above the community, but in fact did not take into account the price fluctuations.
In places where the shipbuilding industry is developed, shipbuilding workshops are concentrated, and all kinds of supporting workshops are also concentrated, and related materials and components are cheaper. But in a place like Tansniel, the price was actually much higher than he had estimated, and the corners of his eyes jumped a little at the corner of his eye.
It's no wonder that Sylvid said that if it weren't for the money she had, the construction of the Seven Seas Traveler would have been in a lot of trouble. In fact, even now, the eldest princess has already paid them a lot of money, although this money may not be nothing to Her Royal Highness the princess, but in Fang Yuan's opinion, it is also a difficult favor.
And this is just something on the ship, everyone in the Seven Seas Brigade has improved a lot of levels after this round, but the equipment has not been updated, and a new round of equipment is needed. Although he can afford a part, and the raw materials are also in charge of the people of Tapolis, he is not a real all-rounder after all, and alchemy is divided into categories.
After reaching level 20, there are some things he can't make, so he has to buy them-
In the past, in order to build ships, everyone was frugal, and they were eager to break a penny into two cents - not to mention updating equipment or something, at most it was to find a whiteboard to change it into. However, with a little money, you can consider replacing some key equipment with a little better quality.
The Seven Seas Traveler is important, but the strength of the Seven Seas Brigade itself is the foundation for their further development in the future.
At the end of the day, everything costs money.
Fang Yu was shocked when he saw it, put down the account book, and his previous pride disappeared a lot.
Windfalls come easily, but they are just as quick to spend, and this large sum of money is naturally more than enough to build the Seven Seas Traveler, and there is even a lot of surplus.
But what about after that?
Shipbuilding costs money, maintenance costs the same, and the floating ship is a gold-swallowing beast, so it's no wonder that ordinary small guilds can't afford it. Fang Yu realized that he had thought about the problem a little simple before, but fortunately he was lucky to get a windfall this time, but unfortunately this kind of opportunity will not appear every time, and then he has to find a way to find a real source of income.
Sylvid seemed to see what he was thinking, and smiled slightly: "Captain, the floating ship is a scarce resource, and when we have a ship, we can use it to transfer cargo or guests or something, and the cost of daily maintenance will be available." ”
Fang Yu shook his head.
Of course, he understood that the noble lady was just comforting herself, and to put it bluntly, she was just a businessman, but how could it be so easy? If you're not careful, don't talk about making money, maybe you'll have to discount your capital. It is not so easy to become a believer in Lady Roman. What's more, there is no such talent in the team.
Tianlan is a bit of a business acumen, but if she knows the specialties and seasonal price fluctuations in various places, she is not as good as Kita.
However, such a thing can be put to a later date, and in any case, it is good news that the Seven Seas Traveler can be built smoothly. He calculated the time, and when he had enough money, he would return to the Tansnir shipyard and work a little more overtime, and he might be able to see the brand-new ship that belonged to them next month.
Now that the date for the launch of the Adventure Mission's floating ship has been put on the agenda, it is only natural that the Seven Seas Brigade will have to hurry up and take care of some of the last things in Istania before then.
"We are fighting to leave Istania by November."
Thinking of this, Fang Yu said with some seriousness.
"Until then, it's best to settle Her Highness the Princess's commission perfectly - I'm going to go back to Lie Bein in a few days, and if it goes well, find the person Her Highness wants to contact, and the matter here will be completed."
"Then we'll return to Tansniel, where we'll concentrate on shipbuilding, and when the Seven Seas Traveler is launched, we'll set off for Nosniel, where we'll meet the lizardmen in the Rusty Swamps—and then Cape St. Huyen, and after rounding Cape St. Huyen, we'll make our next stop on the Scepter Coast—"
He still has some business to attend to on the Shore of the Wand.
After all, Bishop Tirios had been promised, and Shana and his teacher R, and it so happened that these things came together.
Everyone nodded, and it was naturally the captain who had the final say on how the adventure group acted.
After Fang Yu said this, he suddenly stopped.
He counted the time, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional, feeling that he hadn't been in Aitalia for long, and in the blink of an eye, it had been a year and a half, close to two years, and as soon as December passed, it was the point in time when he first arrived in this world. After spending his first half in this world in Capka, he was led by Miss Scapet on his first adventure in Aitalia.
He spent the long summer days of the last year in the forest of Egunne, followed by the encounter with the elven ruins, then the traveler's rest, Dorifin, and so on......
Time flies.
