Chapter 2 Financial Crisis

Qianye knelt down in front of her and caressed the metal skeleton. Even in the real field of view, nothing strange could be seen. However, Qianye was far from being able to see through the space, so he could not tell that it was a space device at the time.

It's also normal.

Qianye flicked his finger again, and a crisp echo came from under his finger. It sounded like a metallic echo, although he didn't know what it was composed of.

"This is not metal, it is actually animal bone, taken from the skull of a giant beast in the void. It naturally has a small attached space, and it is one of the most important treasures of our clan." Qingyue said.

"Such a valuable treasure would actually be placed on your body?"

"It's for the convenience of stealing the blood of the Earth Dragon and other possible treasures." She was quite honest.

Qianye nodded and stood up.

Looking at his expressionless eyes, Qingyue couldn't help but shudder. She suddenly remembered that Qianye had said when he surrendered that day that if he found the slightest bit of restlessness in her, he would kill her immediately. And he secretly hid weapons and energy.

No matter how you think about it, it can only be explained by restlessness.

However, Qianye's frosty face suddenly felt sunshine. He returned the dagger and black crystal to Qingyue and said, "The knife is good, you can take it and use it. The black crystal can also be used."

Qingyue was stunned on the spot. Is this the release of banned weapons and energy? Aren't you afraid that she might be doing something behind her back?

Seeing Qianye turn and leave, Qingyue was really confused and couldn't help but ask: "Why?"

"No reason, I'm in a good mood."

This answer confused Qingyue. She suddenly saw little Zhu Ji beside her, her eyes lit up, she walked over, squatted next to Zhu Ji, and asked softly: "Master, what happened when you went out this time?"

?”

Xiao Zhuji thought seriously for a while and said: "He went to see his sister, and then she drove her back. That's it."

Qingyue was even more confused. This didn't sound like a good thing, it would make Qianye feel "good". She suddenly thought of a possibility, what if Qianye was telling sarcastic words? As soon as this idea appeared, it became more and more obvious.

It is getting stronger and stronger, and there is evidence. Many history books say that the more powerful officials want to kill someone, the more they will smile at that person.

As she thought about it, she couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat. Then Qianye's voice suddenly sounded in her ears: "Come here."

"Ah!!" Qingyue was thinking wildly when she suddenly heard Qianye's voice close at hand. She was immediately frightened and couldn't help but exclaim.

Qianye was standing by the lake at this moment, looking at Qingyue inexplicably, and said: "What are you yelling about? I won't eat you. Bring over those blueprints."

Qingyue calmed down, hurriedly ran to the wooden house, took out all the design drawings, and placed them in front of Qianye. Then she stood with her hands down and stood aside, waiting for instructions at any time. This is her core job and her home.

The foundation of life-saving is that we attach great importance to it. There is a thick stack of design drawings placed in front of Qianye at this moment, all of which are the work of painstaking efforts.

Qianye picked up one, looked at it carefully for a while, and then looked at the next one. When he was flipping through the design drawings, Qingyue breathed a sigh of relief and felt like she was alive. It was no wonder that she was so fragile.

If you don't have enough courage to embrace death the first time, you will be extra afraid of death the second time.

Qianye looked through all the design drawings. It took a lot of time and gave him a headache. He still couldn't understand it. However, he didn't intend to understand it. He just wanted to check Qingyue's results. At least on the surface.

Look, Qingyue is definitely not idle these days. She spends most of her time on these design drawings. As for occasionally taking some time to build a house and tidy up the garden, this is human nature, and it makes her even more cute.

Qianye put down the design drawing and asked calmly: "Now, what do you think we should do first?"

"Engine." Qingyue answered without hesitation.

"Engine? Why? Don't we already have the heart of the Earth Dragon as power?" Qianye was a little confused.

"To put it bluntly, the current Hall of Heroes is a moving earth dragon. The reason why it can fly is entirely because the earth dragon's skeleton naturally has the ability to float, and is driven by the heart. But don't forget, the earth dragon

After all, the dragon is dead, and all we can use now is just some of its remaining instincts. Do you think it can fly very fast?"

Qianye nodded. He also understood that the Hall of Heroes was only faster than the cargo ship at the moment. If it were not able to travel through the void, a military floating battleship would be able to outrun it.

Qingyue pulled out a design drawing, pointed to the complicated spider web-like pattern on it, and said: "The power generated by the heart of the Earth Dragon is extremely precious. I believe that the Zhiji King should leave a series of designs in order to utilize this power.

The power of the void beast can be said to be the top energy source.

With it, we can build many devices that could only be realized on drawings in the past. How can such energy be wasted? Therefore, it is better to use ordinary engines for daily flights. And the space in the Hall of Valor is so huge that we can completely store it.

Enough fuel for several years of flying.”

As soon as she entered her professional field, Qingyue became extremely confident and talked eloquently. Qianye was stunned for a moment after hearing this long talk, but he still didn't quite understand. What is the precious power of Dilong's heart and how to use it

, he knows nothing about it. Moreover, the Zhiji King is also an irresponsible guy, just throwing a half-finished Hall of Heroes to Qianye. The special designs that Qingyue guessed that can use the heart of the earth dragon do not exist at all.

.

While Qianye was slandering King Ji in his heart, he kept nodding his head to show that he had listened. As for whether he understood it or not, he would naturally not say it, and he was as smart as Qingyue and would not ask.

However, Qianye understands one thing, that is, first of all, it is necessary to equip some conventional power engines. On the one hand, it can increase the speed and flexibility of the Hall of Valor, and on the other hand, it can also save the void force absorbed by the heart and bones of the earth dragon.

Come down.

As for the fact that there is no equipment that can utilize the heart power of the Earth Dragon, it is not a problem at the moment. These powers can be used to grow flesh and blood, gradually improving the ship body, and will not be wasted. Moreover, when crossing the void, the natural defensive force field of the Earth Dragon will also be consumed.

Heart strength.

"What's the specific plan?"

"This" Qingyue hesitated, thought for a while and then said: "There are several feasible solutions. One is temporary and will definitely need to be replaced in the future. The other is a one-step solution, but it is a bit expensive."

At this moment, Qianye has killed nearly a thousand mercenary hunters and assassins. There are mountains of black crystals in the Anduya space. When he is rich, how can he care about this? The last thing he is afraid of hearing is 'a bit expensive'.

At that moment, he waved his hand and said proudly: "Just use the one-step solution. Cost is not a problem!"

Qingyue perked up and then said with a smile: "This plan is a combination of engine and power sail. The plan is to hang a power sail on each spine mast, which can save a lot of space for storing fuel. However,

The largest power sail currently available is too small, so I

The power sails we finally used were spliced ​​together, and each piece required eight pieces of the largest standard specification power sails. In addition, because of the high driving force requirements, only the top power sails could be used for splicing. Of course, if it can be customized in the future

A special limited edition power sail would be even better!”

Hearing this, Qianye suddenly felt his heart tremble and his vision went dark.

The price of power sails of different grades varies greatly, but the things used on floating battleships are not really cheap. As Qingyue said, the highest grade and largest single power sail costs at least several thousand imperial gold coins.

Even large floating battleships only use five or six cards.

However, the power sail required by the Hall of Valor requires a total of eight individual pieces to be assembled, and the Hall of Valor is several thousand meters long from head to tail tip, with over a hundred spines. Even if only a few dozen of the largest ones are hung on the power sail, at least

It would also cost two to three million imperial gold coins. In Evernight, a few hundred thousand gold coins could arm a division of the expeditionary force.

Now Qianye is equivalent to hanging twenty expeditionary army divisions on the spine mast, which is still the minimum configuration. If we seriously calculate it, we also need to add power sails that provide acceleration, deceleration, steering and balance, and the cost is probably even higher.

Double.

No matter how rich Qianye is now, he can't afford to spend money like this. Most mercenaries don't have much money, and only high-level mercenary hunters and gold medal killers have enough money. So combined, Qianye can only make more than a million in wealth.

Of course, Qianye's net worth is much more than this. The problem is that the real value, such as the Zhiji King's gun barrel, Dongyue, Original Wings, and Black Book, none of these can be sold.

Only now does Qianye truly understand that the floating battleship is a bottomless pit for melting gold coins. The fleets in the empire have been accumulated bit by bit over hundreds of years. The same is actually true for Yongye's side. The Duke and Prince's

The ships seem to be infinitely powerful, but in fact most of them took hundreds of years to build and perfect little by little. It is not surprising that the Maharaja's ship took thousands of years to build.

Therefore, on the battlefield between the Empire and the Evernight Fleet, it is rare to see the appearance of these ancient giant ships that are powerful enough to influence the situation on the battlefield. The real reason is that not to mention the Dukes and Princes, even the Maharaja is reluctant to part with them.

As for the Hall of Valor, this unprecedented floating giant ship, which can even be called an aerial battle fortress, costs astronomical amounts. It is just a branch of the power sail in the power system, and it is also the minimum number of configurations.

Qianye, who feels like a nouveau riche, is on the verge of bankruptcy. If he wants to build the entire battleship to perfection, he doesn't know how much it will cost. At least, it is a number that is huge enough to make the clan desperate.

Qianye suddenly suspected that King Zhiji gave up the Hall of Heroes because he had no money, right?

No matter how maliciously Qianye speculates on King Zhiji, the Hall of Heroes is now in his hands, and this huge amount of expenses is destined to fall on his head.

Qianye calmed down, put on a smile, and asked softly: "Qingyue, do you have any other plans?"

PS: I wish everyone a healthy Dragon Boat Festival, and congratulations to my book friend Xiao Hua Shao on his first birthday today. There will be an update later.
