Chapter 591: One hundred people, all kinds of people
The cakes drawn by Sarlayan made many nobles feel itchy, but some people's faces were still gloomy.
As the saying goes, the butt determines the head.
From the very beginning, these people planned to use force to force Sarlayan to give up his interests. Seeing Sarlayan using his sharp tongue to incite the emotions of everyone around him, they were naturally not in a good mood.
For people who are used to lying down and doing business without capital, it is not that easy for them to stand up and make money.
But at the moment, they don't dare to blatantly come out to oppose it. The atmosphere around them is heated, and one person may make people angry.
Under Sarlayan's special attention, the nobles sitting farthest away whispered something to each other.
Judging from the greedy look in their eyes, these people are probably still like dogs who can't stop eating shit and want to continue doing business without capital.
"Ha~"
A cold light flashed in Sarlayan's eyes, and he greeted Valeera through the soul link, who had already gotten up and came to the door.
"Valeera, remember these people, follow them after the meeting, and let the Backlight Blade closely monitor these guys' territory."
"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away."
There are hundreds of people, all kinds of people.
There were only a few scum among the ranks of nobles, and Sarlayan thought that this cruel world had changed its nature and suddenly became true, kind, and beautiful.
【This joke is not funny.】
[In fact, it is normal. Everyone has different ideas. Some people are willing to make money legitimately based on their skills, while others will think about how to take advantage of loopholes all day long. 】
[Just like contemporary company employees, some want to work hard, get promoted and get a raise to achieve their goals in life, while others just want to sit back and fish, and these salty fish will also unite to exclude those who want to climb up.]
[...To be honest, I am the latter kind of person. I really can’t roll anymore. Those who still retain their enthusiasm will appear very dazzling to me.]
[If you can’t get it, you will destroy it if you can’t do it? 】
[Ahem~ This topic has nothing to do with the current problem Xiaosa is facing, so I will put it aside for now. 】
Sarlayan: "No, it actually has some reference significance. Isn't this what these nobles who just want to lie down and don't want to pay are like this?"
"I don't want to stand up, and you don't want to get everyone moving, otherwise I will destroy you."
[How should I put it? In a sense, I can understand them. Xiao Sa, you are in a different position from them, so it is normal for you to want to kill them. 】
[We can’t let a few rat droppings ruin the whole pot. Azeroth will face endless crises in the future. It’s time for Quel’Thalas to stand up and stride forward.]
[So, some people still eat too much and have time to think about something else.]
[If we could also feel the crisis that is about to threaten our daily lives, there might not be so many salted fish willing to lie down. 】
【Like the big guy next door?】
【Shh~ don’t talk about state affairs.】
As the barrage said, the crisis in Azeroth is far from over.
The Burning Legion and the Ancient Gods were still watching, and the Warden of the Shadow Realm was hiding in the dark to watch what happened, unable to help Sharlayan stop.
Not to mention Quel'Thalas, if one person fails, the whole of Azeroth will face disaster.
There is a saying in another world: if you are poor, you can only benefit yourself; if you are prosperous, you can help the world.
Issalayan's current strength and influence cannot lead the direction of the countries in Azeroth, so he can only start to reform and grow in his own motherland.
The more powerful Quel'Thalas becomes, the other countries that feel the pressure will naturally try to keep up, forming a trend that will indirectly promote the progress of Azeroth in all directions.
Back to business.
The first five-year plan of Quel'Thalas focuses on the reform of the official system, naval construction, educational reform and preliminary national economic reform.
In addition, Sarlayan also plans to promote the upgrading and transformation of military equipment and amplify Quel'Thalas' advantage in magic technology.
On average, it takes at least ten years to train a qualified ranger at the pace of high elves.
This is just a qualification. If you want to train elite rangers, it will take decades at least.
This is because today's rangers use bows and arrows as their main weapons. If you want to be proficient in bows and arrows, practice them to the point where you can hit the target with a hundred steps, and you must work hard for ten years.
In Azeroth, a world where magic exists, the upper limit of using bows and arrows is not lower than the firearms mentioned in the barrage, and it can even be better with the blessing of certain special skills.
Sarlayan did not intend to completely negate the existing ranger training system, he just wanted to provide another brand new option for some new rangers.
Firearms, magic firearms.
Compared with bows and arrows, which require a lot of time to master, firearms are much less difficult to learn and easier to learn quickly.
Taking into account the timetable given by the barrage, Sharlayan, who was in a tight mood, did not have the time to slowly train soldiers in Lordaeron, so quick training was the most suitable option for the current situation.
After returning from his mission to Kul Tiras, Sarlayan planned to go to the National Defense Research Institute to see the situation. He wondered whether the researchers could complete the modification and design of the firearms within this time.
…
The cake-painting meeting ended successfully, and most of the nobles bid farewell to Sarlayan enthusiastically, and then hurriedly returned to the territory with the minor nobles under their command to prepare in advance for the upcoming sea opening policy.
The few nobles who were closely monitored by Sarlayan did not cause trouble at the meeting, and left without saying a word after the meeting.
The thieves of Backlight Blade will continue to monitor them and report them immediately if they notice any trouble, leaving them no chance to cause trouble.
This injury allowed Sarlayan to fulfill his promise and stay in his own territory for a full week.
Onyxia returned a lot of information on her way to Lordaeron.
The East Tirisfal region includes the Eastern Plaguelands and the Western Plaguelands mentioned in the barrage, and is collectively referred to as East Wilder in the administrative division of Lordaeron.
In this vast administrative region, not only the Stratholme region and the center of Lordaeron are at odds with each other, but the lords of Darrow County and the Hand of Tyr are also opposed to Terenas and Quel'Thalas.
There is a lot of dissatisfaction with the approach.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! When Onyxia crossed the Sodorir River and entered the area that would later be called the Western Plaguelands, the atmosphere here was completely different from the previous one.
It's different across the river.
Due to its proximity to the capital, the Andorhal region is more loyal to central Lordaeron.
Hearthglen, far away in the North Vale, is managed by Tirion Fordring, one of the five original paladins.
Tirion Fordring was very critical of Terenas's foreign policy and believed that the king should not use hegemony to force other countries to surrender. As a result, the relationship between Hearthglen and the Royal City of Lordaeron has not been very good.
However, different political views from the king did not affect Tirion Fordring's loyalty to the country.
Generally speaking, except for Keldaron and Icewind Hills, which originally belonged to the Kingdom of Alterac and were later annexed by Lordaeron, the entire Western Plaguelands... let's call it this name.
The entire region is very obedient to central Lordaeron, which is very different from the Eastern Plaguelands across the river.
What she saw along the way made Onyxia deeply understand what it means to be far away when the mountains are high, and it also made Sharlayan feel the importance of geopolitics.
This also served as a reminder to the current Quel'Thalas. Sarlayan even teleported to Silvermoon City to meet with Kael'thas and suggested that he strengthen his control over the overseas territory of Crystalsong Forest.
The last time I received a message from Onyxia, she mentioned that she was in the town of Andorhal.
Andorhal is the location of the most important granary in the East Wilder Administrative Region and is directly under the jurisdiction of the Royal Family of Lordaeron.
Andorhal is located right in the middle of the Western Plaguelands, with connections in all directions.
In recent years, Icewind Ridge and Steinblade farther south have been troubled by the Syndicate organization, and even Andorhal dare not relax its vigilance to the south.
According to Onyxia's comments along the way, the Kingdom of Lordaeron seems to be still strong, but in fact there are many hidden dangers hidden in various noble territories.
The Barov family, which rules Keldaron, was originally one of the top nobles in the Kingdom of Alterac.
Before the execution of Alterac King Aiden Prinod, Terenas promised them that a member of House Barov would be placed on the throne of Alterac.
At that time, the Barov family enthusiastically promised Terenas that they would follow Lordaeron's footsteps, and only Lordaeron would follow the lead in the Alliance Conference.
The result...everyone knows it.
The anxious Terenas gave up on supporting the puppet and violently swallowed Alterac into Lordaeron, thus leaving endless hidden dangers.
The Barov family deeply resented Terenas for going back on his word. Kaerdaron was only nominally subordinate to Lordaeron, but in fact he had been secretly colluding with the Syndicate.
Farms across the Western Plaguelands are deeply exploited by local nobles. The farmers' lives are close to being miserable, and a large-scale peasant uprising may break out at any time.
"Ha~"
Sarlayan sneered and threw away Onyxia's letter: "My home is in a lot of mess. I don't want to focus on rectifying the house, but I'm still busy flirting abroad. Who gave you the courage, Liang Jingru?"
Valila: "Who is Liang Jingru? Another confidante of yours?"
"...This is not important. It is just a metaphor and does not refer to a specific person."
