This round of military organization involved three War Fighting Legions and a total of 200 odd thousand troops, a huge expenditure for the territory.
Based on calculations, if one considered the pension money as well, it would result in a one-time cost of 1.5 million.
The more terrifying part was the daily military expenses.
When the three legions were fully formed, Shanhai City would have 13 legions and just the salary alone would reach 500 thousand gold.
Along with the five squadrons of the Nanyang Navy, considering the monthly grain usage, equipment, war compensation money, and more, Shanhai City's monthly costs would be over a million.
Around 60% of Shanhai City's financial profits would be passed to the military. Deducting all the other expenses, although each month Shanhai City earned over a million in tax, it had truly limited profits.
