After a while, the whole car began to shake slightly, and there were bursts of weird sounds coming from inside.

Since everyone's attention was focused on the airship that was gradually disappearing above their heads, no one noticed the behavior of this doggy man and woman.

After the airship was completely out of sight, they finished their work and walked out of the carriage.

In order to cover up the strong hormonal smell on their bodies, the two sprayed a large amount of perfume on their bodies.

However, if you look closely, you will find that the silk stockings worn by the lady have been changed from black to flesh-colored.

A maid got into the carriage, put black stockings stained with unknown mucus into a bag, and cleaned the floor and seats.

You don’t need to ask to know that all these products from the industrial age were brought by the planeswalker Zuo Si, and they are deeply affecting the daily lives of the residents of Askatra.

In particular, silk stockings and lace sexy costumes have received unanimous praise from both the upper-class aristocrats and the special service establishments in the streets and lanes that are almost as numerous as pubs.

In this regard, the veterans of Faerûn have reached a consensus with their counterparts on Earth without any obstacles.

It even indirectly caused the birth rate to skyrocket in Askatra, Luskan and Nelanthel Islands.

Although many of them are illegitimate children whose fathers don’t even know who they are...

"Amazing invention!

Lord Soth, please allow me to express my most sincere gratitude to you on behalf of the Goddess of Wealth and the church.

Because the emergence of airships as a means of transportation means that land trade will become more prosperous than before."

Waking's electorate, and also the church's top leader, Saranda Olium, solemnly bowed and bowed.

Although he had already known about the cooperation between his goddess and the young man in front of him.

But after witnessing the terrifying cargo capacity and the astonishing flying speed of the airship, I was still shocked and speechless for a long time.

Because in terms of efficiency alone, this thing has surpassed the existing wooden sailboats.

If it can be mass-produced, the influence of the goddess of wealth will definitely increase significantly.

Zuo Si smiled and waved his hand: "No, no, no, the airship is not my invention, I just improved it."

As a person who thinks he has some integrity, he will not put things invented by others on his own head, even if that person does not exist in the current world.

But Sarangda O'Reum said disapprovingly: "At least you brought it to Faerun, and countless people will benefit from it. If you don't mind, can you tell me how many large ships like this you have on hand now?

Airship?"

"I prepared six large airships like the one you just saw, and ten small airships that are only about one-third the size.

The former is mainly used to run fixed routes.

The latter is dispatched to specific cities based on demand conditions and runs some routes with relatively large trade demand.

According to my plan, to connect all the inland towns on the entire west coast, about thirty airships will be needed at this stage, which should be enough.

Each fixed route has a round trip of no more than ten days at most, which can meet the transaction needs of most towns.

If everything goes well, I will consider expanding eastward, signing agreements with Tumis, Cormyr, the Valley, and surrounding cities along the Sea of ​​Fallen Stars, and opening new routes.

In short, this matter cannot be rushed, we must be steady and take our time."

Zuo Si calmly stated his plans and arrangements.

Obviously, he is not in a hurry to completely replace the world's backward transportation with airships.

On the one hand, the production cost of this thing is really not low.

Even with such a convenient tool as shimmering oil, it still consumes a lot of resources, and complex enchantments must be performed after the main body is built.

Otherwise, relying solely on flash oil for replication, the resulting airship would simply not be able to fly with a giant pod of the same size using such a small airbag.

In other words, in terms of high-level magic stability, Shimmering Oil is not as powerful as it is in terms of mechanical and organic transformation.

If the target being transformed originally possesses magical abilities, then the shimmering oil can naturally keep them intact.

But if you don't have magical abilities and want to rely on shimmering oil to give them, the consumption will become very staggering, even exceeding the original manufacturing cost.

Fortunately, Zuo Si has already begun to develop No. 7 Shimmering Oil, trying to greatly enhance its capabilities in the field of magic.

On the other hand, Zuo Si was not sure whether the emergence of such a disruptive thing like airships in Faerûn would stimulate the sensitive nerves of some gods, so he planned to test the waters first.

"Are there already sixteen ships?

This is really exciting news!

If you want to open a route in that city, please be sure to let me know.

I will ask the church to organize local merchants to fill the warehouse as much as possible to avoid waste.

But in terms of price, I hope you can give me some discounts.

After all, this can increase the church's appeal and influence among business people, and at the same time help you promote the airship so that more people can quickly accept it."

Saranda Olium quickly stepped into the role she played and began to fight for the interests of the goddess and the church.

Zuo Si smiled and nodded: "No problem.

If it is a group order from the church, I can give you a 10% discount.

This price is basically only a little more expensive than shipping by sea, so it should be easily accepted by businessmen.

If the church's orders can occupy more than 50% of the warehouse, another discount can be given on this basis.

This way it’s no different from taking a boat.”

Hearing these words, Sarangda O'Ream immediately exclaimed excitedly: "Walkin's on top! Is this true? It's as cheap as shipping!"

"Of course it's true.

And I also opened many value-added services on the airship.

Rich people pay high prices to live in the upper floors and enjoy the best food, wine, scenery, bathrooms, casinos, and luxurious rooms.

There are even cocktail parties, dances and concerts held every night.

As for ordinary passengers, they live on the lower floor.

Although the conditions may not be as comfortable as the upper level, it is not as cold, humid, and smelly as the lower level of the cabin.

The most important thing is that traveling by airship is much safer and faster than traveling by horse-drawn carriage on land.

Regarding this aspect, I hope that the church will be fully responsible for its operation.

I wonder what you think?"

Zuo Si suggested very simply and directly.

You must know that the airships he brought to Faerun, without exception, were "completed" by No. 5 Shimmering Oil, and they are out-and-out living intelligent machines.

Therefore, after confirming the route, no human operation is required at all, and all the work can be completed by yourself.

The energy consumed by flying can be directly drawn from the magic network.

Anyway, with the oil there, even if any part is broken, it can be repaired in just a few seconds.

Excluding the cost of construction, the operating cost of the airship is wirelessly close to zero.

Therefore, Zuo Si felt that he could directly outsource the service industry on the airship to the Goddess of Wealth Church.

It can save both labor costs and operating costs, and you can just sit back and wait to collect the money.

“I’m extremely happy!”

Saranda Olium agreed immediately without even thinking about it.

What a joke!

No fool would agree to such a good deed.

With his decades of experience in the business field, he can see at a glance what amazing benefits operating the airship service industry can bring.

What's more, the church can take this opportunity to expand its influence and bind more businessmen to it to form an interest alliance.

But how to allocate it is a big problem.

Especially when Sarangda Olium plans to abdicate in favor of someone else, and the following five ambitious women with the title of "Shangjin" are preparing to compete for the highest leadership position.

The old man knew very well that the "Five Shrews" were personally recognized by the goddess, and planned to train them into independent talents to cope with the church's upcoming crazy expansion.

There is no doubt that the first trial flight of the giant airship caused an unprecedented sensation in the entire Askatra.

Many bold and adventurous merchants have chosen to take their goods with them and embark on the journey to Silvermoon City in the North with the airship.

You must know that Silver Moon City is located inland. In the past, traveling by land or river was not only time-consuming and laborious, but also faced many dangers.

Many people in Amn may never have the chance to see it in their lifetime.

But now, with the advent of airships, it only takes a few days to get there, and the fare is not expensive, much cheaper than taking a carriage all the way there.

Therefore, in addition to businessmen, many adventurers, scholars and wealthy citizens with some wealth also joined this journey.

Wherever the airship passes, people on the ground will raise their heads and stop to watch.

The people on the airship looked down at the scenery on the ground with a certain sense of superiority, as well as those as small as ants, or the monster tribes in the forests and deep mountains.

Some guys who were so idle that they even spent money to buy a bag of potatoes from the back kitchen, stood on the ventilation deck outside and threw it down to kill the hordes of goblins, orcs, orcs and gnolls on the ground.
