Capítulo 503: Adhania's Navy

The tour of the naval base came to an end with the showcase of the second new ship.

And as for convincing Pasha Farzah to join in the effort, it proved to be ultimately unsuccessful.

Even when Lady Inayah pointed out in an incredulous tone, "But with Alexander's new ships we can catch up to the other powers and become invisible both at land and sea. Won't you join us even then?"

The old man still did not want to commit resources to this endeavor, only saying, "To win the civil war, we need a strong army. That is our most important immediate need and we should focus on that."

"Having a navy can wait."

Lady Inayah had heard this type of myopic thinking for most of her life, and the fact that the most powerful man in Adhania refused to invest in a navy even when such glaring evidence had been presented to him hurt her.

But this type of mindset had been developed for generations and it was hard for any noble to change, with Djose and her family being the only two exceptions.
