"Director Theodore, could you give us an idea of the price range for advanced airships like the Dawn Airship?" Hearing that airships could be sold for non-military purposes as described by Director Theodore, most people breathed a sigh of relief and asked further questions.
Seeing that someone had already taken the bait, Director Theodore calmly answered: "Ladies and gentlemen, as you know, it's not easy to build an airship that can traverse the entire world. If it were the previous two generations of airships, it would be fine, but for the most advanced AU-3 Airship, its cost has already exceeded sixty thousand pounds. The selling price should be around eighty thousand pounds."
Doing business with capitalists, naturally, they would try to drive up the price as much as possible. Even if the true cost of the Dawn Airship was only over forty thousand pounds, it did not stop Theodore from asking for such a high price.
