Noah's airship is finally ready, but how to make the airship take off has become a huge problem. The airship's airbag was nearly a hundred meters in diameter, and it was so big that there was no place to unfold it and inflate it.

Noah asked the dwarves to build a huge platform out of stone and giant wood, the diameter of the platform was more than fifty meters, the center of the platform was hollow, it was also circular, and the inner diameter reached twenty meters. This platform, which is more than 20 meters high, has become the most elegant building in Malishen.

It took a lot of effort for the dwarves to carry the finished airbags and ropes, which weighed nearly ten tons, to the platform, and then connected the ropes to the huge basket made of wooden rattan under the platform, and then relied on the stove in the basket to burn the essential oil and heat the air bags.

Gradually, the airbag slowly puffed up, but the process was slow, and it took a full night to fully lift the airbag into the sky.

It was so spectacular, the airbags floating in the morning light swayed and rattled in the wind, eager to break free from the ropes attached to the ground and float into the sky. All the people of Marishen stopped what they were doing and came to watch the feat of Noah's airship test flight.

Today's wind is not very strong, which is very suitable for the test flight of Noah's airship.

The haggard Noah insisted on flying his own work and collecting relevant data. Blue Fairy, Daniel, and Nicole also boarded at the same time, and the huge basket was loaded with at least five tons of stones in addition to the four people who had flown the test. There are also more than a dozen female elf warriors on Pegasus led by Marisa flying in the air, who will escort today's test flight.

Benjamin and Pantony personally cut the ropes that bound the airship, and with a loud cheer, the behemoth slowly rose into the air, and the huge furnace continued to shoot the huge tongue of light blue fire upwards towards the air bag.

It was so shocking that many dwarves and elves on the ground even fell to their knees and slowly bowed down to the huge creature.

The huge basket of Noah's airship, which was raised in mid-air, stretched out a huge sail, just like the tail rudder of a giant sailboat, which could be adjusted along the circular basket at will.

Blue Fairy is in charge of the lookout, Nicole is in charge of controlling the fire, and Daniel is in charge of the tail rudder and adjusting the direction of the airship.

At a height of several hundred meters, the cool breeze blew away the scorching heat of midsummer, and also blew away the tangled hearts of the four people for months.

Except for Noah's insistence, everyone was doubting whether this behemoth could really fly, costing nearly a million gold coins and taking up a lot of dwarven labor, and now it finally flew into the sky as it wished, how could it not be exciting.

The Marishen occupied by Benjamin was originally a secret base, and there was no other way to obtain resources from contact with the outside world except for nearby towns! Benjamin had a thousand empty boxes of jewelry, but he couldn't exchange them for gold coins, and Marishen's construction had basically drained the dwarves' small coffers, and even survival would be a problem if they were not supplied from the outside world. The forest country is very rich because the dwarves have small coffers, but because of the dwarves' coffers, the inflation of the entire forest country is very serious, and the price of ordinary items in the forest country is at least twice as high as that of Ahasia, so the money is not valuable.

As Noah's airship flew farther and farther away and gradually disappeared into the sky, the excited crowd of Malishin began to devote themselves to intense work again, but there was one more heroic character on their lips.

"According to the available data, the Noah airship, which carries five tons of cargo, has a flight radius of only more than four hundred kilometers under the existing conditions!" Noah held the data in his hand and said, "Considering special factors, we can only use the airship according to the effective radius of three hundred kilometers, otherwise, it is very likely to fly out and never fly back." ”

"It's only 300 kilometers?" Daniel said, "In that case, you can only operate in the forest country area, and it seems that the task of exchanging jewelry for gold coins is not yet achievable!" ”

"What if it's empty?" Lan Xian'er asked.

"If it's empty, it can have a radius of about 500 kilometers!" "But the no-load consideration can increase the amount of essential oil fuel, and if this is the case, it can reach a distance of at least seven or eight hundred kilometers." ”

Lan Xian'er also said in surprise: "Such a low capacity and running radius? I thought I could reach at least 50 tons of capacity, but now it seems that the plan to transport the jewels and gold coins by Noah's airship will not be carried out! ”

"I didn't expect that it took a few months, coupled with a lot of financial and human resources, to just create a waste!" Noah said dejectedly, his face even more haggard.

"Waste?" Nicole said, "General Noah, if you let Noah's airship go into battle to kill the enemy, I can guarantee that it will definitely be a perfect treasure!" ”

"I told you, I'd rather destroy it than make it a murderous weapon, Princess Nicole, you don't have that kind of thought!" Noah said, "I'll keep improving it!" ”

"Princess Nicole, do you dare to gamble?" Lan Xian'er said to you.

"How do you bet, what?" You may be surprised to ask.

"Gambling on investment, of course!" Lan Xian'er smiled.

"What to invest in? How much do you want to bet? Nicole is very interested in the way Blue Fairy makes money, and the money bank and pawnshop system model she learned from Blue Fairy have begun to produce benefits in the past two years, although compared to the amount of investment, the money currently earned is not even enough to pay interest, but the prospects of these two investments, Nicole is full of confidence.

"I want to invest in war!" Lan Xian'er said, "Benjamin is very short of money now, we can invest in him, if he wins the war, the money we invest will make him pay thirty percent interest per year!" ”

"Didn't he have jewelry, didn't we say we would buy his jewelry?" Nicole asked suspiciously, "Why don't you buy it now?" And, why are you bringing this up? ”

Lan Xian'er shook her head and said, "In times of war, jewelry is not valuable, although we can convert jewelry into gold coins through Fuxing City and Alchemy Country, but the problem is that I have tried everything I can, and I haven't figured out how to transport the jewelry out and gold coins in!" I originally wanted to wait for the Noah airship to be built and use it for transportation, but I didn't expect that the capacity of the Noah's airship was so low, and it was not enough to travel back and forth between these two places, it was too far! ”

"Even if you invest in Benjamin now, how are the gold coins going to come in?" Nicole said puzzled.

"Of course it's Qianzhuang!" Lan Xian'er said, "The money bank and pawnshop in Fuxing City already have branches in Madeya City, why don't you transfer the gold coins to Malishin through the bank?" ”

Nicole's eyes lit up and she said, "No wonder you advocated the establishment of a branch of the money bank in the Forest Country from the beginning, and you had already planned to do so!" ”

Lan Xian'er smiled and didn't answer, but Nicole shook her head and said: "Madeya's money bank did absorb a lot of gold coins at the beginning of its construction, but now that the forest is in turmoil, most people will keep the gold coins in their hands, it is estimated that there has been a run on the money bank for a long time, where did so much money come from?" Moreover, pawnshops will also mortgage many items because the citizens of the forest country need money, and in Madeya, not only do we have no money, but we also need to put money into it! ”

Lan Xian'er smiled: "Long before entering the Forest Country, Higg asked Denilson to transport the money to Maderia's bank, a total of 50 million gold coins!" You must not have imagined that money was actually won by betting! Otherwise, how dare I say buy Benjamin's jewelry? ”

"Gambling wins? It turns out that you have already prepared to invest! Nicole was surprised and said, "So, Madeia City has 50 million funds in reserve?" However, how to transport it into Marishen is also a problem! Marishen's military base cannot be exposed yet, and if so much money is used, it is inevitable that the other party will not be aware of it, and it may destroy Benjamin's plan at that time! ”

"I originally wanted to use Noah's airship!" Lan Xian'er said: "Let the money be transported to other cities in the normal way of circulation, and then find an open place on the way, use the Noah's airship to transport the jewels from Malishen, and then transport the gold coins into Malishen!" But now Noah's airship can only transport five tons at a time, one or two million gold coins, which is too little! ”

"In that case, no matter how much money is in the treasury of Madeya Money, there is no way to bring it in?" Nicole asked, "What can you think of to keep the large amount of gold coins from going unnoticed, and still safely transport them into Marishen?" It's so hard! ”

"No matter how hard it is, you have to do it!" Lan Xian'er said, "It's a pity that my storage ring spiritual power is about to run out, and the space is about to collapse, otherwise, I can transport more than 10 million gold coins at a time!" There is a way, and you need to go back to Benjamin to discuss before you can decide! ”

"Storage rings need spiritual ores? So, you need to get Benjamin to win as soon as possible and claim the Druid's realm so that you can mine your ore there? Nicole said with a smile, "This investment is too risky, I will be overturned if I lose, and if I win, I can't see too many actual benefits except for making some money, unlike you and Benjamin who have huge prospect interests, but I don't see any returns." It's obviously your own business, but you have to say that you want to help Benjamin invest, and you have to pull me, hehe! ”

Blue Fairy said, "Princess Nicole, are you too shrewd? I know that Princess Nicole doesn't care about making that little money now, she cares more about profits, you say, what benefits do you need? ”

"You're wrong, I don't care about profits, I can help you! Just rely on you to help us find the square tower in the alchemy country, and I am willing to help you! But I need you to promise me one condition! ”

"On what terms?" Lan Xian'er was very surprised.

Nicole said seriously: "Hehe, Blue Fairy, I know that you have a lot of secrets, I am very interested, I don't need you to tell me all the secrets, but when you return to the clan, you must take me and Daniel!" ”

"This ......" Lan Xian'er hesitated, the Valley of Flowers was originally all the secrets of their clan, and now only Higg and Delonso knew about it, although Shante had been there, but she didn't really know the real core secrets of the Valley of Flowers, and now Nicole offered to go to the Valley of Flowers, how could she be the master herself?

Nicole laughed, "Since we're doing everything we can to help you find the ores your people need, you won't even tell us what they're going for, it seems like we're having a thankless time!" ”

Lan Xian'er said: "It's not that I don't promise you, it's easy to say other things, this matter is not trivial!" Since you have this idea, I can only report it to the patriarch before I can bring you in, and I promise to do my best to make it happen! But, in any case, please keep all the secrets you know now or will know about us secret, otherwise it will bring unpredictable dangers! ”

Nicole nodded solemnly and said, "We will!" ”

"People say that two women are in one play, it seems that there is really nothing wrong with it!" Daniel drank the chilled Hundred Flowers Fairy wine and said, "The conversation between the two of you in this heaven is simply dividing up the world!" Look down, this beautiful river and mountain, you two women are pointing at it here, like something in your own bag, and finally pull me and Noah in, eh! ”
