Chapter 195 The sphere of influence of the high elves
"You'd better settle the last account first!" Yulin Blood Eagle sighed.
He actually has no expectations about the possibility of settling the bill now.
"The gold coins can be given to you now, but four gunboats are difficult to deal with." Antonidas said, taking out a check for 50,000 gold coins from Dalaran and giving it to Yulin Blood Eagle.
"Ah, did you really bring it?" Yulin Blood Eagle said as he took the check in surprise.
Sylvanas looked at the check in Yulin Blood Eagle's hand with envy, fifty thousand gold coins! She said in her heart.
"I understand that the shipyards in the human kingdom are now going all out to build warships to support the war, but they can't stop paying forever! Is this okay? I don't want gunboats anymore, so I entrusted Quel'Thalas Shipyard to help me build four large ships
Transport ship. You will pay for the construction of the ship at Quel'Thalas Shipyard. When it is built, I will propose it. After all, you still have an advantage. No matter how expensive a transport ship is, it is not as expensive as a gunboat. What do you think?
"
Yulin Blood Eagle folded the check and said: "You can discuss the payment method with the Quel'Thalas delegation here. I can rest assured with their guarantee."
Antonidas thought about it and felt that there was not much pressure to pay this way, so he agreed. So a group of people walked inside and sent someone to call members of the Quel'Thalas negotiating delegation to negotiate with Antonidas about the price of four transport ships.
matter.
Yulin Blood Eagle provided two improvement sketches provided by the Griffin Knights, as well as some improvement suggestions. Since there were no prohibited military weapons and equipment, the three parties quickly signed a contract. After all, four large transport ships are nothing.
It's a small business, and the Quel'Thalas delegation is still happy to do it.
The contract was signed in the name of the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas, the Kingdom of Dalaran, and the Lord of Quel'dannis.
The delegation from the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas is happy because the shipyard can start working and can generate income. Antonidas from the Kingdom of Dalaran is happy because the payment pressure can be alleviated. The Haebayashi Blood Eagle is also happy because four new aircraft carriers have been acquired.
.Only Sylvanas is not happy because she has no share in this business.
After the Quel'Thalas delegation and other elves left, Antonidas said: "What kind of business? Now we can talk about it!"
"It's not a big deal. Last year I bought 30,000 sets of various types of wrenches, locks, chain armor suits and weapons and equipment. I plan to arm 5 to 6 foreign legions this year to help me wipe out the trolls in Sutland. But
Somehow the news leaked out, and the king discovered it, forcing me to resell these 30,000 sets of armaments to Stormwind City."
Yulin Blood Eagle said: "Stormwind City is in a tight situation now and needs support. That's what I talked about with her. I hope she won't bring this up in the negotiation meeting. I can give her 3,000 sets of armaments, but she won't do it.
, saying the risk is too great.”
"Don't you want to sell these 30,000 sets of armaments?" Antonidas asked.
"Why take action? There are so many refugees now, and I don't know how many more will be in a few months. With these 30,000 sets of armaments, I can arm 5 to 6 legions of troops at any time, and I can wipe out Xutlan. I can just take a few.
What's the money for? What is the main product of Xuntlan? Gold and wood! With these legions, I can easily wipe out the trolls in Xuntlan."
Yulin Blood Eagle said: "At that time, I will have five or six legions, covering most of the Xutlan area, and hundreds of thousands of trolls. Am I still afraid that I won't be able to find gold mines? Is there no one to dig for it?
?I’m not just fighting for gold? Now that I have the gold coins, I have the guard force, I have the territory, and there are no enemies. What’s the difference between setting up a small kingdom? Is it worth it to change hands for so little money?”
"Why does your king force you to sell these 30,000 sets of armaments?" Antonidas asked.
"Do you think the king is a fool? Can he watch helplessly as he exiled a group of political prisoners and then armed half the kingdom of Quel'Thalas with a military force? If not for the Zul'Aman trolls who wanted to attack Quel'tha on a large scale
Lars, if he can't make a move now, I guess he will have already arrived at the city! How could he just send my sister-in-law out to warn me?" Yulin Blood Eagle said.
"Your sister-in-law?" Antonidas asked him strangely.
"She! The jade dragon Sylvanas Windrunner, and his sister the ice phoenix Alleria are my wives!" Yulin Blood Eagle said.
"You don't have to sell it if you don't want to!" Antonidas said with a smile.
"I don't want to sell it. I don't need to be called by the king. My sister-in-law beat me first!" Yulin Blood Eagle said with a bitter face.
"Can you sell this batch, take the gold coins and buy them quietly?" Antonidas said.
"Old man, why are you still telling lies? Look at how much the price of arms has soared now. Can you buy it if you have money? You humans are all expanding their armies and restricting the sale of armored weapons. Who should I buy from? Yes.
If so, you would have used it to support Stormwind City, why are you still thinking about the little armament I have?" Yulin Blood Eagle said.
"You can just buy it quietly after the war!" Antonidas said.
"After the war? After the war, the refugees have all gone home. If I buy the equipment, who will be armed? If there is no equipment, it will be of no use to anyone!"
Yulin Blood Eagle sneered: "The king's timing is really good. Now that I have the equipment, I can choose whoever I want. When I could easily arm five or six legions, he gave me my plan with just one word."
Overthrown. When your war is over and the refugees are gone, it will be useless no matter how much armaments I have."
Yulin Blood Eagle said angrily: "But he doesn't want to think about it. I only have a small number of people and I am far away from the mainland of Quel'Thalas. What is he afraid of? I, Queldenis, am powerful, and I am not within the sphere of influence of the high elves?"
Is it necessary to target me? I think his head must have been crushed by the door!"
The sphere of influence of the high elves? Antonidas was shocked, but his face did not change at all. He smiled: "Even if you are armed now, when the war is over and these refugees form a legion, many people will go back.
"
Antonidas smiled easily.
"That's not necessarily the case!" Yulin Blood Eagle said with a smile: "When the time comes, I will have so many trolls helping me dig gold, and my foundation will be stable. If you want to keep people, just let them go. If you don't want to, just let them go. I will
Pay high wages to hire people from Quel'Thalas to reorganize the army. That's a lot. How much trouble can those feared troll captives cause?"
Antonidas thought about it and felt that what he said made some sense, but he suddenly remembered the problem. He frowned and said: "Such an army consumes a lot of food, and food is not cheap now."
"Tch, I've thought of this a long time ago! I've stocked up on a lot of food, enough to last for several years!" Yulin Blood Eagle said.
"The king ordered you to take in some human refugees!" Sylvanas listened for a while and immediately understood what he meant! It turned out that he wanted to sell armor, but he was trying to trick people! But Sylvanas didn't just want to sell it.
