My Apocalypse Territory

Chapter 354: Chapter 349 Floating Airship’s First Flight (Big Chapter)_2

Currently, sales are only radiating around Green Shadow and Luoxia, as well as areas surrounding Lin City like Heng City and Shuo Lake. Despite the numerous merchant teams running back and forth, the goods are hardly enough to meet the needs of the local Awakeners.

Due to transportation issues, it’s even impossible to open a new sales area in Jing City.

Tang Yu had considered using Floating Chariots for transportation, yet even if the Floating Chariots were filled with Space Backpacks, they couldn’t transport much cargo at a time, and it was impossible to fit large items into the Space Backpacks.

The number of Floating Chariots was also very limited. Each cost up to two hundred thousand Source Crystals (converting materials to cost price), some rare materials could only be accumulated slowly. Up to now, the Territory only had about a dozen, half were given to the Armed Department, the Intelligence Department took four or five, he himself also needed to keep at least two, and then he had to spare a few for followers out on missions…

There were no Floating Chariots available to spare for transporting goods.

“Floating Airships are different, they cost over two hundred thirty thousand but have much greater carrying capacity than Floating Chariots. It’s just that, given our current finances, even by cutting corners, we can hardly build a few.”

Tang Yu frowned.

The treasury had been fluctuating between the alert and crisis lines; even though he owned a mine, he was barely holding on.

The income from the Source Crystal Mine was stable at several tens of thousands of Source Crystals a day, and Resource Point One, after deducting the maintenance costs of defense structures, could also bring in a small twenty to thirty thousand a day. Sales of rune equipment across various regions, combined with income from the Spirit Space and Martial Arts Hall, had now become a major source of income, varying from tens of thousands to over a hundred thousand Source Crystals.

However!

Building one defense structure cost thousands of Source Crystals, the expensive ones tens or even twenty to thirty thousand; setting up a defensive line suggested spending millions. Expenses on followers and employees were not small either, requiring an expenditure of at least a few hundred thousand Source Crystals weekly. Moreover, each activation of his newly constructed battle system cost tens of thousands of Source Crystals yet could only maintain operations for less than a minute…
