Zax waved his hand helplessly, "You may think that it has nothing to do with whether we take the sea route or not. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 Info, however, I must tell you, it has a lot to do with us. ”

"Like I said before, we goblins rarely grow it, so where does this food come from? I'm sorry, but if it's trade, the gains outweigh the losses, and this thing is not worth much in a peaceful area, but it is expensive in a war-torn area. We rarely buy grain, I say that you get the idea, right? ”

Locke seemed to understand something, and he nodded.

"Our people, our seamen, most of them are people on the wanted lists of the Kingdom of Kul Tiras and the Kingdom of Stormwind. If it's purely the Stormwind Kingdom, it's better to say that they are not a pure maritime country after all. And if you go around the far point and walk from the endless sea, you can also walk away. ”

"Not so with the kingdom of Kul Tiras. First of all, they are a maritime power, and their warships can be paved, from the kingdom of Kurtilas to the kingdom of Gilneis. Their warships were faster than ours, and any pirate who dared to challenge them at sea was hanged on their masts. And they are just outside this sea, thousands of kilometers away. When we pass through the open sea of the Kingdom of Gilneis, we must pass through their zone of control. And if you choose to bypass them, it's farther than taking the road. ”

"Although! Their country has left a large part of the navy and warships, but ours is not yet their opponent. ”

"So... Dear customer, do you understand our difficulties? Zax lowered his head in embarrassment.

It turned out that this group of pirates was afraid of the navy of the Kingdom of Kurtilas?!

Who has made you do bad things? Locke sneered inwardly. But he immediately caught the key point!

Kingdom of Kurtilas? Navy? Navy? Navy! The navy of the kingdom of Kurtilas!

Locke suddenly remembered a country that had never appeared before in the game, a maritime powerhouse.

Kurtilas is a huge island sandwiched between Lordaeron and the Eastern Kingdom, across the sea from the western coast of Kazmodan.

Compared to their northern neighbor, Lordaeron, the Kultiras were wealthy and patriotic. They used to wear green clothes and use flags marked with the pattern "Anchor of Kul Tiras".

Like the inhabitants of the Hillsbrad Hills, they believe in the Light, and they celebrate the Festival of Tribal Defeat every year. They hated the Scourge who ravaged the lands of other kingdoms, the Naga, the Fishmen, and the pirates who attacked ships to steal resources, and the Orcs who destroyed their proud fleets in the Second War.

They are staunch members of the Alliance and loyal friends of Ironforge.

It's just that now...

Locke sighed, afraid it was enough.

During the natural disaster, Gianna Prodmore, as the eldest daughter of the king, took a part of the people of the kingdom of Kul Tiras, crossed the endless sea, came to the continent of Kalimdor, and established the human city of Theramore in the dust swamp.

Later, the king of Kurtilas, Admiral of the Alliance, Dalyn Prodmoor, took most of the fleet with him to the coast of Lordaeron to fight the Scourge.

Later, when the Tyrisfal Glade lost control, Daylin Proudmoor left the battlefield with a fleet that left Arceth before destroying Lordaeron.

They crossed the endless sea, exhausted by months of sailing at sea, and finally arrived at Theramore, which was founded by Gianna on the continent of Kalimdor.

There, Daleen discovered the city founded by the orcs. A hero who made a name for himself in the Second War, Gianna's father was a sworn enemy of the Horde and he was determined to destroy Durotar, the territory held by the Orcs, before they could gain a foothold. He refused to keep the peace with the orcs, and he led the fleet to coastal attacks on all orc civilians and troops encountered along the way.

The fragile peace agreement between orcs and humans is threatened, and the tensions between the two races begin to intensify. Gianna had to choose between keeping the peace between the two races or helping the orcs defeat her father.

After a struggle of ideas, Gianna chooses the latter, and she helps Sal defeat her paranoid father. Unfortunately, the Admiral died in battle before Gianna could prove to him that the Orcs were no longer bloodthirsty monsters and reconcile with him.

Out of Gianna's loyalty to the Horde, the orcs agreed to allow her forces to return safely to their home in Theramore. In return, Theramore became the city where the Horde would never attack.

But Locke knew that the contract between the Alliance and the Horde was as thin as a piece of paper, although Thrall and Gianna still maintained a certain personal friendship.

However, it is not a personal friendship between the two that can make all the soldiers and civilians below let go of their hatred. And in the future, the new Great Chief of the Horde. Little Hell Roar even dropped an arcane bomb on Theramore, leveling Theramore....

"Sir?! Mr?! Locke's ears heard the call of goblins.

"Oh?!" Locke came to his senses, and he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "You go on, I'll listen." ”

"Look... Shall we go by land? Zax asked tentatively.

"Nope! Take the sea route! Locke rejected his offer, joking about what the soldiers will eat when you arrive in two months! Not to mention the surviving populace.

"You find a way to send the food over, and I will be responsible for all the expenses along the way!" Locke said solemnly, "This matter is non-negotiable, I can give you a price increase for this!" ”

"This.—" The goblin hesitated, and he sat down in his chair, thinking with his arms on his chin.

Locke wasn't in a hurry, he had to think about it. What if he managed to get the food over? Even if he didn't go by sea, he would have to buy their food, because there was no way, and if he didn't buy them, he would have nothing to eat. Now he is relying on their food for emergency relief.

"Yes!" The goblin suddenly raised his head and said categorically, "But! Yours give me some compensation! Because, our ships are not used! We're going to find other goblin trade captains and rent their ships! Each ship costs a fee of five gold coins! ”

"Even! We're going to replace all the crew too! You also have to pay an extra gold for each crew member! Zacks, the goblin, looked at Locke and said bitterly, "This account is not easy to calculate, and the money is not for me!" It's for my competitors! ”

"Don't worry!" Locke breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, so that his own people could eat. My plan was also carried out smoothly. "This transaction is completed, and I will give you some additional benefit fees."

"Okay." Zax said listlessly, "This money is not for me." ”

"Now, let's talk about the other deals." Locke smiled and said to the goblin, "I think you should take a note, I need a lot of things." ”

"Oh, really?" The goblin instantly pulled out a small black leather book from his magic bag, and then brought a pair of clear glasses.

"Distinguished customer, I'm ready, you say."

"Listen, I'll charge a few of the gnoll druids we agreed on before, and the price is still the same as before. This is number one. ”

"Second, in the human kingdom, recruit all kinds of craftsmen; There are blacksmiths, carpenters, stonemasons, as many as I want, and the price of five gold coins for a craftsman. After they are brought, I will be responsible for their resettlement, and you will be responsible for keeping them safe on the way back. ”

"Third, I need your goblin engineering masters, and if you can recruit a few for me, come a few. If you can't recruit masters, senior workers, intermediate workers, and junior workers, it's okay. However, this price is not necessarily, 100 gold coins for a master, 10 gold coins for a senior engineer, 5 gold coins for intermediate level, and 1 gold coin for beginner. ”

"Fourth, in the human nation, recruit homeless vagrants, ex-servicemen who intend to join the army, naval officers and non-commissioned officers, and I want as many as I want. 1 silver coin for an outcast, 10 silver coins for an old soldier, 1 gold coin for an officer, 10 gold coins for naval officers, and 1-10 gold coins for non-commissioned officers to see experience. ”

"Fifth, buy horses from other regions for our crusaders, tentatively ten thousand. As for the price, it will be agreed in person"

"Sixth, if possible, we want to use goblin airships here as a means of daily dual-use transportation, keep an eye out for experts in this area."

"Oh! I'll interject! That's no problem, there are a lot of this kind of airship engineers in our goblins, and many of them have no food to eat, and they are definitely willing to come. Zax said with a smile.

Locke also smiled, why did he mix up and have no food, Locke knew. Because the goblin was born out of goblin engineering.

Everyone remembers that phrase in goblin engineering.

Goblin products! Stirring!

Yes.

An airship flying in the sky will fly and fly with mechanical failure and plunge headlong into the ground...

However, compared to the current Lordaeron, these mechanical failures can be ignored for the time being, although their failure rate is as high as 100:1.

"Seventh, we need your helicopters and fighter jets, and our crusaders will also set up an air force, and if you can get engineers for helicopters and fighter jets, I will give you 500 gold coins alone."

"Oh, I'm afraid it's difficult." Zax touched his chin, "They are all treasures in every group, and they won't leave easily." I'll keep an eye on it for you. ”

"Eighth," Locke thought for a moment, and Zax, the goblin, looked up and looked at him excitedly.

"I don't think about it yet," Locke said truthfully.

"Hey, dear customer! Time is money! Zax said dissatisfied, "You're wasting our common property!" ”

"Let's do it first." Locke thought for a moment, "I'll contact you when I think of something else." ”

"Okay, though." Zax looked at the notebook in his hand and said, "There are so many things you need, and the value is amazing!" I need some deposit, I hope you understand. ”
