Chapter 303: The Conditions of the Hot Sands

As Kezan's ship entered the harbor, the bells were tolled.

The goblin girl Jenny stood at the port with her mother and waited eagerly, but after everyone disembarked, she did not see her father.

"You promised to return all the captives. Does Kezan intend to break your promise?"

Li De angrily questioned the person in charge of Kezan. Under his power, the opponent was fighting, but he still said it bravely.

"The King of Steamwheedle said that regarding the release of Mr. Noggenfogg, you need to go to Kezan in person to discuss it in detail. We are only executing orders and do not have any decision-making power."

Listening to the goblin's complaint, Li De did not make things too difficult for the other party. He knew that this guy was telling the truth, and finally let them go back to Kezan.

Looking at the mother and daughter standing in front of him with tears in their eyes, Li De solemnly promised them.

"Don't worry, I will definitely bring Noggenfogg back safely."

After watching the mother and daughter leave, Li De recruited some of his most trusted people.

"This guy from Hotsand detained Noggenfogg and invited me to Kezan. He must have wanted to put forward additional conditions."

"Protector, we should also take countermeasures against such people who go back on their word. I propose to release Gryzlik and return to Kezan."

Haggard gave this advice, and the others unanimously agreed.

Unlike the Hanhai Governor's request for the release of the prisoners, Kezan never mentioned asking for the return of the prisoners at all.

Those guys still hope that the Hanhai Protector will never release the prisoners, so that they can divide the property of those prisoners left in Kezan, and the richest one among them must be Grizlik, one of the six kings.

Li De said that he could consider this suggestion, but what he wanted to discuss most now was obviously what Hot Sand wanted to get from the Protector of the Vast Sea. Thinking of this, Li De couldn't help but sigh, and he began to miss Kel'Thuzad by his side.

It's time.

The war was completely over, and many people who had been seconded to Li De's command because of the war had returned to their home countries, including Kel'Thuzad and Garin.

However, except for these senior commanders, the soldiers of the First Division all stayed in the Hanhai Protector. If they were demobilized and returned to their hometowns, there was no regulation on their local treatment, so Li De proposed that the Hanhai Protector should be in charge of them.

All placement work.



In the end, Li De decided to go to Kezan in person. He was not worried that the other party would play any tricks to endanger his safety. Malfurion was in Kezan at this time.

If Sha dares to provoke a conflict, he will undoubtedly bring about his own destruction.

However, in order to facilitate contact with Malfurion, Li De decided to go with Shandris Feather Moon.

The road from Tanaris to Feralas has been opened, and the Guardian of the Hanhai who has initially tamed the manticore also has his own flying unit, so traveling between the two places is much more convenient.

After deciding on tomorrow's itinerary, Li De didn't do much work this whole day. The division of labor at all levels of the Hanhai Protector was quite reasonable, allowing Li De to have his own time.

In this way, he walked around with Shandis all afternoon. Li De was extremely familiar with every street in Gadgetzan, but when he was with the person he liked, he would not feel the same even if he walked the same road many times.

boring.

In the evening, the two of them sat on the mountain outside Gadgetzan and watched the sunset.

"Li De."

After snuggling together silently for a long time, Shandris suddenly spoke.

"Um?"

"I heard that the king of Lordaeron proposed a marriage to you."

Li De was a little surprised by Shandis' words.

"You know all about this?"

"The streets of Gadgetzan are talking about this, and I'm not deaf."

There was a slight hint of jealousy in Yuyue's tone, which made Li De burst into laughter.

"Why are you bringing this up? The princess of Lordaeron is just a little girl, less than half my age."

This answer does not satisfy Yuyue. Just like Terenas himself said, girls grow up in the blink of an eye. What's more, when it comes to age, Yuyue is many times older than Li De.

"Li De, what do you like about me?"

Shandis asked, holding Li De's shoulder.

This is really an eternal problem. Li De chewed his teeth and thought about it for a long time.

Valley

"How do you want me to answer this? There is no reason, I just like you."

"Perfunctory, you are a leader, and the interests of many people are tied to you. Even your marriage is not something you can do as you wish. Why don't you decide your marriage based on interests?"

Li De felt like his head was a little big. Why do night elf women also like to make things difficult for others on this kind of issue?

"Ha, you think I am such a useless person? I have to sacrifice my own marriage to bring everyone to prosperity? This is a false proposition."

As he spoke, Li De reached out and hugged Shandis. Yu Yue struggled slightly and still asked without giving up.

"You still haven't answered my question directly, why do you like me?"

Li De hated this question so much that he simply stopped pretending, showed his cards, and whispered into Shandis's ear.

"You have to listen to the truth, right? The truth is that I only have impulses in my heart when I face you."

This answer caused Shandis's face to turn crimson, and she clenched her fist and gently hit Li De's chest.

"You are so vulgar."

Li De stopped talking and directly grabbed Shandis's ear.

"Well……"



Early the next morning, a refreshed Li De, accompanied by Shandis, took a boat to Kezan.

"These guys are really tenacious. They experienced a defeat not long ago, but they started production so quickly."

When he arrived at Andemi Harbor, looking at the busy goblins on the dock, Li De couldn't help but sigh.

"Putting aside everything else, this racial character that refuses to admit defeat is indeed a bit scary."

Shandis also said in agreement.

"After landing, we will first visit the Archdruid, and then I will go to see Hot Sand alone. You can ask Archdruid Malfurion to understand the current situation on Kezan Island."

Regarding Li De's arrangement, Shandis nodded lightly in agreement.

The meeting with Malfurion was very monotonous. Because Li De was not familiar with the other party, the two did not have much communication. They only exchanged a few polite words on the surface. After handing the place to Shandris, Li De Go to see Hot Sand alone.

"Strim Wilder, don't you want to meet me? I'm here and tell you your purpose."

After meeting Resha, Li De didn't give him a good look at all.

"For the sake of our already paid 1 million gold coins, don't be so indifferent, my friend."

Resha said smoothly, snapping his fingers and ordering the waiter to bring expensive red wine.

Li De didn't touch the glass of wine, but his expression softened a little, as the other party said, for the sake of the gold coins.

"You violated the terms of the treaty and are still detaining our important personnel."

"Don't say that, Nogfogg and I are also old friends. In fact, after he was captured, I treated him quite well. Even during the most intense period of the war, he was able to stay in Kota Kinabalu.

Zan moved freely, but only after Grizlik was captured, his movements were slightly restricted."

"I have no intention of quarreling with you. I demand that you release him immediately."

"Of course I will let him go..."

Risa took a sip of red wine.

"It's just that while releasing people, I hope to cooperate in some aspects with the Hanhai Protector. Of course, there will be no trading relationship between the two. Even if you don't agree to cooperate, I will still release Marin."

Li De knew that this guy really had the conditions.

"Tell me first what kind of cooperation it is?"

"Kezan hopes to produce textiles for Hanhai Protector. Are you willing to introduce your country's advanced textile technology to Kezan?"
