Chapter 46: Under the Mask

In the arid desert hinterland of Karimdor on the south shore of Karimdor, one of the largest trade events in history is taking place. Fleets from the East sold large quantities of dwarven spirits, dark beer, precious stones, and oil to goblin traders, who in turn sold large quantities of water and food to these "traders" who traveled from afar. Everyone knows that Kurtilas is famous for its maritime trade.

The desert city of Garkison has been so busy these days. The "caravanserais" of Kurtilas bought not only local food and fresh water, but also local products from Karimdotanalis. Flying snake scales are everywhere here, and the quagmire swamps in the north are a handful, while in the east, there is no such product. It is the upper raw material for making scale armor and some leather goods.

Kodomon's skins, rosin, amber, crystals, pyrite, etc., have also become the objects of purchase by the crew of Kul Tiras. Since the precious metal of gold coins was in circulation throughout Azeroth, the whole of Gakison, for a few days, was like a giant trading market. Prices at all market stalls have more than tripled, and hotels and inns are almost in short supply...... Dalin's fleet, a large trade order, is more than the annual revenue of the entire city of Garkison.

The goblins could barely stop laughing, and they were even more hospitable to their wealthy masters, the Kurtilas. The mayor of Knightson, Kozmoz, even had his men serve Dalin's fleet for free, repairing their broken "merchant ships". and set up a banquet and invited Dai Lin and his party every day.

The Colosseum, located in the center of the city, is open all night. Due to the arrival of a large number of foreign tourists, the demand for entertainment consumption has increased dramatically, and in the desert, there are not many items that can provide entertainment, and the bloody and brutal competitive game of beast fighting has become the first choice of the crew of Kul Tiras.

Of course, there are also red light districts, and the price of blood elves, which are extremely rare in the city, has risen to sky-high prices in a few days...... Because usually goblins don't choose these elves, only humans are good at this......

In short, a trade has spawned countless side hustles...... It sparked enthusiasm throughout the city......

Of course, only the leading players in the trade, Daelin and Ares, knew that all of this was just a faΓ§ade. The fleet is anchored here, and this trade with the goblins is only to replenish supplies and food, and their real purpose is not so simple as trade.

"Your Majesty, thirteen warships have prepared enough fresh water and food for us to sail at sea for three months. In addition, all kinds of materials have also been prepared. Ready to set sail. ”

In the evening, after the feast, the personal guard entered Dalin's room and reported on the week's trade purchases. Basically, all the battleships were adequately supplied. In addition, the board of the ship was strengthened using the technology of the goblins, nominally to protect against pirates, but the smell of gunpowder in the war became stronger and stronger.

"Good. Also, Is there any news from Varian? ”

After listening to the guard's report, Dai Lin nodded with satisfaction. At the same time, it is a very important issue to be concerned with another issue. That's the whereabouts of the King of the Storm. This is the goal set by everyone before the departure, and it is also the king of Ironforge Magni. Copperbeard's primary concern. Although Dalin couldn't wait to go to war with the Horde, he still didn't forget to look for Varian in his heart.

"Not yet, but there's a clue. Following your instructions, we did not dare to conduct a large-scale investigation for fear of suspicion. At present, the only clue is that two years ago, there was a powerful human here, who could single-handedly pick up a crocodile. Outwardly, this man bears a striking resemblance to King Varian. In addition, this person appeared mysteriously, and the place where he appeared happened to be the place that Naga said. And, no one knows his real name. His identity is a mystery, and because of his extremely strong fighting power and lack of identity, this man was captured by the orcs and became a slave. Maybe a slave to the fighting beast. This is information bought from goblin tipsters. We suspect that this man is the real King Varian. ”

The guard said earnestly.

After listening, Dai Lin nodded thoughtfully. All of this brought back memories of the prosperity of his alliance in the past. At that time, Lordaeron was still alive and Stormwind was rebuilding...... And now, as long as Varian is found, Stormwind has hope of getting back on track. He and Magni will do their best to help the young king become a great king. Although both Dalin and Magni have more or less dark thoughts of meddling in the affairs of Stormwind City, the reality is that the problems of Stormwind City can only be solved by the people of Stormwind City themselves, and this person is their king......

……

Daelin prepares for war against the orcs under the guise of trade, however, Gakison, the sprawling desert city, is not content to be left alone. Goblins are a smart race, a greedy race, so to speak, greedy to the point of madness. While Dahlin was sharpening his knives, in the basement of Gakison, the city's chamber of commerce representatives and the city's owner, the goblin Kozmoz, were also collectively discussing another huge business - they planned to sell these goods and goods from the east to their old acquaintances on the continent, the tribe.

Kurtiras's fleet brought just too many goods and cargo. These things are no longer something that can be digested by a single Knightson City. Goblins need to stock up and sell slowly. But then, profits come too slowly. From the day they received the cargo, the frenzied goblins had a bold idea - not only did they want to eat the entire fleet, but they also wanted to resell it to others. The other races that inhabit the continent - orcs, minotaurs, and trolls.

However, considering that Kurtilas was a member of the Alliance, which had always been at odds with the Horde, the deal had to be done in secret. That's why Kozmoz summoned the people of the Goblin Chamber here today.

"It's too dangerous to do that, even though it can double the profits."

"My suggestion, let's not rush to find the tribe connector first. Kurtilas' fleet is still in our harbor, and when they are gone, we will connect with the Horde and resell the goods. ”

"But what if they don't go?"

In the secret meeting room below the town hall, the goblins of the Garkison Chamber of Commerce each have their own opinions. The feasts of the night did not intoxicate them at all, and their eyes shone again at the mention of money and trade......
