A ridge-grade engine along with its necessary components could be considered a generous offer.

Qianye made sure his thoughts wouldn’t show as he continued flipping through the pages. The contents of the third page caused him to raise his brows: toad-grade warship main cannon.

The toad-grade main cannon wasn’t the most advanced model in the Empire’s arsenal, but just like the ridge-grade engine, it was the most widely-used cannon in the fleet. Its most useful feature was its triple fire capability, allowing the ship to fire three ballista bolts at the same time, or one at a time. The cannon was compatible with almost all special bolts in the army.

Most importantly, it was a main-cannon made for cruiser-grade airships!

The toad-grade cannons were far inferior to the Landsinker in Qianye’s possession, but it was definitely better than the other available main cannons. Be it in terms of firepower or quality, it was far superior to anything Qianye had in store. Song Zining had also gotten his hands on some destroyer-grade main cannons, but the toad-grade armament was beyond his reach.
