I opened an adventurer's guild in another world.

Anno, upon returning to Xuelong City, immediately went to the Craftsmen's Guild and found Selena.

When Selena learned that Anno was coming, she immediately remembered how he had easily tricked her into selling the Selena to him for a paltry ten million gold coins.

And it's the kind where you pay after you use it!

Because she herself was deceived by Anno's sweet talk, Selena has no way to go back on her word now.

But now, Selena has decided to take revenge on Anno.

She didn't even have the maid make tea for Anno after she sat down.

"How's it going? Has the Serena been wreaking havoc on the battlefield?"

Selena crossed her arms, rolled her eyes, and asked her first question about the magic spaceship.

Looking at her expression, Anno quickly understood the cause and effect after a moment's thought.

I guess he felt he lost out afterwards, and now he's planning to give Anno a hard time.

Anno chuckled lightly and asked indifferently, "How long have I been in the other world?"

How many battles can be fought in such a short time?

Where can you gather real-world combat data about magic spaceships so quickly?

Three questions in a row completely killed off Selena's last bit of interest.

"Then why have you come to see me now?"

Selena looked at Anno warily and said, "Let me tell you, the Craftsmen's Guild has no more wool for you to fleece."

Also, when are you going to pay back the ten million gold coins you owe me?

The artisans' guild is almost starving.

Selena's statement is somewhat of an exaggeration.

The artisan guild is now quite large; it's no longer the small one it used to be.

Even though a large amount of money was spent on developing the magic spaceship, it was only a difficult period of time.

It won't take more than a month to recover.

"I'm actually here to give you money!"

Anno leaned back in his chair and said casually, "I went to another world. Although I didn't get enough combat data from the Selena, I made a small profit of one billion gold."

Moreover, judging from the Serena's only battle, the magic spaceship's effectiveness has exceeded expectations.

Therefore, I plan to place a spaceship order with the Craftsmen's Guild.

Clang!

Selena stood up from her chair, staring wide-eyed at Anno in disbelief, stammering, "Ten...ten...ten...ten billion!"

The girl realized for the first time how quickly the profits from war could come.

It wasn't until Selena became the president of the Craftsmen's Guild that she learned the prices of daily necessities.

Although the artisan guild is also very good at making money.

However, compared to Anno's ability to earn a billion gold coins just by traveling to another world, it's nothing.

Selena even thought that if Tester's poor brother knew how rich Anno was now, he would definitely beg Anno for a share.

"Cough cough..."

Selena cleared her throat and said to the maid waiting for orders, "Jelica, serve the Count tea!"

Upon hearing this, Jellica lowered her head and walked out of the reception room without saying a word.

As Jelica left, he couldn't help but think to himself, "Just now you said, 'If the lord wants tea later, just tell him that the entire Craftsmen's Guild is eating dirt and can't afford tea.' But as soon as you heard 'one billion,' your attitude immediately changed 180 degrees."

However, when Jelica heard the lord say "earned a billion gold," her heart couldn't help but pound.

For a mere maid, let alone ten billion gold coins, even ten million gold coins would be an unattainable fortune.

As expected of the omnipotent lord!

After waiting a moment, Selena, who was massaging Anno's shoulders and back to please him, saw Jelica return with tea. She immediately walked over, took the tea tray, and personally poured tea for Anno.

"My most wise and mighty lord of Klang Valley, are you satisfied with this tea?"

Selena asked with a smile, "If it's too hot or too cold, I'll change it for you right now!"

"Perfect!"

After taking a small sip, Anno put down his cup and said to Selena, "While I think your current attitude is good, I still prefer your rebellious side!"

"Hmph, you're getting cocky just because I called you fat!"

Selena playfully punched Anno's arm, then said seriously, "You told me about a billion, it's for building the magic spaceship, right?"

Anno rubbed the spot where Selena had hit him and nodded, saying, "I'll give you 500 million and six months to build me a fleet of at least fifty ships!"

This fleet will include the Serena-class Type I armed ships;

A lighter, faster Type II armed spacecraft, one class smaller than the Serena;

And the high-capacity Type III transport spacecraft.

There are three types in total: Type I (ten ships), Type II (thirty ships), and Type III (ten ships).

How about it, can you do it?

Anno had discussed the three models with Selena before, so she immediately understood what Anno meant.

The Type I armed spaceship is equipped with 13 magic crystal cannons, boasting powerful firepower but relatively slow speed. It can normally carry 500 soldiers.

Type II armed spaceships are equipped with 5-7 magic crystal cannons, have moderate firepower, and are relatively fast. They can normally carry one hundred soldiers.

The Type III transport ship's primary function is to transport supplies obtained from other dimensions. Due to the limitations of the width and height of the dimensional portal, increasing the capacity requires increasing the length of the transport ship's hull.

The Type I armed spacecraft has been successfully developed and can be used on the Type III transport spacecraft; all that's needed is to increase its capacity and remove the turrets.

The Type II armed spacecraft also needs further research on its flight speed, aiming to increase it to three to five times that of the Type I, and the higher the better.

"Three types, a fleet of 50 ships!"

Selena frowned slightly, and after thinking for a while, she said, "We can start building Type I and Type III now."

The only limitations are energy and materials!

"You don't need to worry about those two things. It won't be long before the adventurers bring back materials more suitable for shipbuilding, as well as magic crystal ore, from the other dimension."

"manpower!"

Serena looked at Anno and said, "If I have to build a magic spaceship while also researching the Type II, I don't have enough highly skilled craftsmen around me."

Anno shook his head and said, "If it's not enough, you can train them. You can find a way to turn the spaceship manufacturing process into a production line so that ordinary craftsmen can also participate."

We can also poach talent from other countries...

Selena bit her lip and considered for a long time before finally saying, "In that case, I'll have to pay more. I want 7 million for this order!"

Anno countered, "Once the production line is built, the cost can be further reduced. 5.5 million!"

Selena retorted without backing down, "Whether it's recruiting artisans or training elite artisans, I'll need to spend a huge amount of money. 6.5 million!"

Anno: "6 million, that's the most I can do!"

"make a deal!"

......

Sodar!

"What? You gave Selena's guild supplies and money worth 6 million gold coins?"

After hearing about the order from Anno, Tester immediately pounced on Anno's side, hugged Anno's waist like a rogue, and said, "Brother Anno, I also have a business deal I'd like to discuss with you."

You invest 5 million in me.

No, 4 million will do!
