Zumulaen was a little dazed by Tonatiu's question.
Where is the best place to do business in Dazar'alo?
Is this a question a troll, and a troll leader, would ask?
Zakaze, who was panting next to him, immediately rushed to say:
"Your Majesty! If you want to do business in Dazar'alo, the best place is of course the Hundred Merchant Market!"
"I remember coming out of the consulate area and outside the Zandalari noble area, isn't there a market?" Tonatiu asked.
Zakaze said: "Of course it's good there, but the goods sold there are all high-end goods. Ordinary trolls can't afford them. The Hundred Merchant Market is a mixed bag. There are more than 20,000 shops in it. It's said that it's hundreds of stores. Shang Market, but actually it should be called Wanshang Market!”
"I even think! In Baishang Bazaar, as long as there is something in the world, you can find it in Baishang Bazaar, or find a seller!"
The young and promising desert youth probably thought that Tonatiu wanted to buy something, so he continued to add:
"Entering Dazar'alor requires Zandalari's permission and a pass. Except for us trolls and the residents of the Zandalari Islands, it is difficult for other races to apply for it. But it is not required in the Merchant Market and the dock area. You only need to notify and register. , anyone can come! So it’s very prosperous there and has all the goods in the world!”
"There are more than 20,000 shops in one market?"
This number is completely beyond Tonatiu's imagination, considering that this is Azeroth, a country with low productivity! Zuldazar actually has 20,000 stores, which is simply unimaginable.
Zakaze: "The entire area where the dock is located is the commercial district of Zuldazar. Not only the Mart, but also several other places are very lively. There are many department stores and shops, but they are not as concentrated as the Mart. I I got some data from Zanshuer, saying that the total number of registered shops in the dock area exceeds 50,000!"
Tonatiu was speechless.
Fifty thousand stores?
This is too exaggerated.
Maybe carrying a load of stuff and selling it on the street counts, otherwise what is the concept of 50,000 shops?
There are probably only tens of thousands of commercial stores in several first-tier cities in China on Earth.
When he arrived yesterday, he only saw endless sailing boats at the pier. After getting to the pier, it started raining, windy, and dark, so he didn't go shopping in the pier area.
Unexpectedly, it is a big market.
Calculating this way, if there are really 50,000 shops, including merchants, bosses and clerks, this part alone may have a population of 100,000.
And that's not even counting shoppers.
Such a large-scale commercial venue allowed Tonatiu to once again feel the grandeur and majesty of Zuldazar.
Little did he know that this was actually related to the special terrain of the Zandalar Islands.
The Zandalari Islands are located in the lower center of the Endless Sea, and almost all of the trade and trade of the eastern and western continents rests near the Zandalari Islands.
If you don’t want to repair here, you can only go to the goblins’ Undermine, or the dangerous and uninhabited Broken Islands.
The Zandalari trolls of this era are very civilized, and they really have a scholarly style. Even if they want to revitalize the troll clan, they still do it in a very civilized way, providing aid, materials, and money, but only this.
And if there are trolls who do immoral things, such as the Haka incident.
Encountered this kind of thing.
Zandalari will even come forward and call on other races or other trolls, and they will pay to kill bad trolls...
Moreover, Zandalari also knew how to let a bunch of old turtles who looked harmless to humans and animals act as middlemen. They set up their own territory and maintain order, and did not directly manage it.
This created the extraordinary prosperity of the Zuldazar dock area.
In the original plot, this prosperity will continue until the catastrophe decades later.
The global tsunami caused by the cataclysm flooded many places on Zandalar Island. The commercial dock area located on the seaside bore the brunt and was almost completely destroyed.
If Prophet Zul hadn't built countless large ships in advance and took most of the Zandalari trolls on board to take refuge, the Zandalari trolls might have suffered heavy losses.
Although Zul's prophecy was there, the Zandalari trolls escaped the catastrophe. However, the dock area was almost completely destroyed by the global tsunami, and Zuldazar was also in a mess.
Later, due to the apparent incompatibility between Zul and Rastakhan, Zandalari began to become radicalized, attracting the hostility of many racial forces.
Amid the civil strife, the reconstruction of the dock area also slackened.
Slowly, Zandalari's status as a transit trade gradually disappeared, and finally only the trolls and the ancestor turtles were left doing business here. There was no longer the bustling scene where merchants from hundreds of tribes gathered before the cataclysm.
Tonatiu didn't know any of this.
It was just when Zakaze said this that he felt that this was a really good place for business!

Temple of Zuldazar. Zansul. Raizan.
A strong and tall blue-skinned troll sat on the throne, "Are all the leaders of the troll tribes here?"
"Your Majesty," the magic lord Lal said, "They are all here. Even the Shattered Spear Tribe of Black Coast and their leader, Jokiel the Soul-Flayer, are here."
A female troll priest with a gloomy face and gorgeous clothes next to her said: "That won't be easy. The Broken Spear tribe has to pass through the territory of those purple skins."
The magic lord Lal said: "Yes. But we helped him, and the pterodactyls helped, and it did not arouse the hostility and dissatisfaction of the Kaldorei."
Rastakha smiled and said: "Thank you for your hard work, Lal."
Lal said respectfully: "Your Majesty, this is what I should do. Zandalar will last forever!"
At this time, Prophet Zul, who had been standing silently next to Rastakhan, stood up and asked softly:
"Tornatiu of Falaki, count the time, he should be here, right?"
Speaking of this topic.
His Majesty King Rastakhan seemed to be more energetic, and he looked at Lal.
"Chief Tonatiu arrived yesterday evening. He is currently staying at the consulate in Falaki."
"Ha~"
Rastakhan shouted with a smile, "That's not easy! Falaki hasn't been to Dazar'alor for many years. I didn't expect that the desert trolls would also be unified. Dear Zul, it's just like you said. This
That’s a really good sign.”
Prophet Zul smiled and said: "This is because of your kindness. If you are not willing, the Sandblood tribe will not be able to unify the sand trolls."
"Useless disputes have divided us." Rastakhan mused: "I hope there will never be any more wars among us. By the way, I heard that the sand troll is very strong and a very powerful warrior.
?”
He was asking the sorcerer lord Lal, because Lal, the priest of God Paku, was responsible for bringing the continent of Kalimdor, which is the farthest away from Zandalar and has the fewest trolls.
After thinking for a while, the magic lord told the truth: "That chief is very strong. He is also very powerful, he..."
hesitated for a moment.
Lal finally said softly: "He may be as tall as you. Of course, he must not be as powerful as you, Your Majesty."
"oh?"
His Majesty the God King became curious when he heard that there was a troll as tall as himself, with a height of over three and a half meters and extremely strong muscles.
"Is he a troll? Or has troll powers?"
Rastakhan is already the strongest troll among the normal trolls in Zandalari.
But among the trolls there are those stronger than him, and that is the deformed giant trolls, or the slightly deformed barbarians.
If it was a giant troll or barbarian type, Rastakhan thought it was normal.
"No." Lal said bravely: "He looks normal. Very healthy, very... young. When I first saw him, he was only a little taller than me. But I saw him again half a year later.
, he is almost as good as you."
"As strong as His Majesty? The dinosaur skin has been blown by you! Lal! Wokar doesn't believe it at all!" Next to him, a giant troll who was much stronger than Rastakhan and at least eight meters tall said in a loud voice.
He didn't believe it at all.
It is obvious that the Vokar who said this is a giant troll, that is, a deformed troll.
The fact that a troll like Vo'kar can speak at the Council of Zan'sul is a testament to Zandalari's political enlightenment.
In addition to their natural mutations, most of the giant trolls gain dark power in exchange for part of their lives.
This will make their bodies larger and more powerful, more brutal and savage, but their minds will also become simpler.
They are the most powerful war weapons in the Zandalar Empire, but their lifespan is shorter than ordinary trolls.
In gratitude for their sacrifices, the Zandalari Empire has long established a seat in the Council of Zan'sul for the trolls.
This is to facilitate their provision of war-related insights to the Council and to protect their rights as Zandalari trolls.
The simple-minded Vokar did not believe that the desert troll could be as strong as His Majesty the God-King.
It’s not like Wokar has never seen desert trolls before. Aren’t desert trolls all short and small, with the most severe stoop among the trolls?!
The harsh life in the desert has bent the back of the sand troll!
"In the name of His Majesty Paku." The magic lord said silently: "I did not lie."
Wokar laughed and said: "Lal! You, a troll who was drowned by a female troll, are not a troll at all! You actually said that a desert troll is as tall as your majesty. I have to wonder if your respected majesty Paku made the wrong choice.
Got the troll!”
Lal said: "Your Majesty Paku can't be wrong. Because I can easily defeat you! Wokar, I never tell lies!"
"Do you want to fight?" the giant troll representative said angrily: "Vokar will crush you!!"
Lal sneered: "I can defeat you with one hand! Vokar, a strong body doesn't mean everything! I could defeat you when you didn't become a giant troll, but you can't win me after you become a giant troll.
!”
"Roar~"
The deformed troll roared angrily. He obviously lost control of his emotions. He opened his hands and wanted to rush towards Lal.
Lal also showed no sign of weakness. Paku's power shone in him, ready to deal with Vokar's brutal collision at any time.
When Wokar wanted to rush over, an invisible spider web fell on him, pulling him so that he could not move forward.
The female troll priest with a gloomy face and gorgeous clothes said coldly:
"Wokar! This is Zansul, you are in front of His Majesty and the Prophet! Put away your anger, this is not a place for you to run wild!"
Prophet Zul didn't know when he stood next to Lal, pressing his shoulder with one hand:
"Lal, have you forgotten what His Majesty just said? Trolls, please don't cause any more disputes. We cannot continue to be divided."
The majestic divine power in Lal's body immediately dissipated, and he bowed respectfully:
"Your Majesty, Lord Prophet. Please forgive my rudeness. But I am willing to swear in the name of God Paku that I am not lying!"
"Hmph~"
Wokar snorted coldly.
The giant troll obediently retreated behind the female troll priest.
The grim Rastakhan's expression softened slightly.
He groaned softly.
"You guys are making me interested in Faraki's new leader!"
