Chapter 249: CCXLIX. Dawn and Narcissus
From public funds, 1,400 Golden Dragons were allocated, leaving 700 Golden Dragons remaining.
To purchase two forty-meter-long warships, each equipped with thirty-six cannons.
One was named "Dawn Breaker."
The other was called "Daffodil."
SS Fuma Keqing Revenge itself had thirty-six cannons and added seventy-two more, evolving into its full form. With the proper weight distribution, it would now be a full combat vessel, capable of carrying cargo, but only a little.
Among these, eight hundred Golden Dragons were spent on the ships, and six hundred on the cannons, without any odd amounts because they were all purchased at a flat rate.
If they were thirty-two-pound cannons, buying so many wouldn’t be possible with six hundred Golden Dragons, so a mix of twenty-four-pound and twelve-pound cannons were also included.
They were now docked at Taylor’s private pier, ready for inspection immediately.
At four o’clock in the afternoon.
After the inspection was complete, the two newly purchased ships were already moored on the public harbor, not needing to approach the pier since there was no cargo to unload.
The cannons were also in working order.
