MTL - Stormwind God-Chapter 33 Do you want to bet?

The dock in front of me is small and cluttered.

There was noise and a strong fishy smell everywhere, which made Windsor frown. If it were n’t for the occasional presence of fish in the meal, Windsor hardly knew that Stormwind had a fisherman-only dock.

The not wide wooden pier extends from the sand on the shore to less than forty steps from the water. As you can see, all are small fishing boats. On the dock, a lot of wooden boards are decaying, and there are many hollows. When you step on them, you will not only emit the dangerous sound of "squeak and squeak", but you will also twist your feet if you accidentally.

There is only a slightly larger stone pier in the distance, which is the only special military port of the Royal Navy of Stormwind. The size of the Wang family navy is better than that of the large Mongolian navy. Anyway, it is the kind of object who will be ridiculed if they dare to shout "My journey is the sea of ​​stars".

Three medium-sized armed sailing class 'battleships', that's all for the Storm Kingdom Navy now. Despite the good maintenance, Duke could even see that the paint on the ship was freshly swept up. At this moment, the navy recruits brushed the splint under the supervision of the officer.

But the impression on Duke is still weak! too weak!

In Duke's mind, such a scene could not help but emerge.

The endless orcs, like a huge galloping green wave, roared across every long street in Stormwind City. Although the storm vehicle guard stopped in the middle of the road, despite the brave response, unfortunately, in front of the orc infantry with absolute strength, each line of defense was almost the same as the paper, and was slightly backed out. It was immediately caught in the orc tide and crushed Fly ash.

Tall and extremely strong orcs have artificially created terrible earthquakes one after another. Trade area, mage area, storm fortress ... all buildings are easily destroyed and collapsed like dominoes. All humans have become captives or victims of funeral with Stormwind.

All the land has been heavily blocked by the orc army, and the only lifeline left by the entire Storm Kingdom is the ocean.

One of the seven kingdoms of mankind, the sea kingdom, Kul Tiras, sent a huge fleet to assist the storm kingdom to evacuate the citizens and the army. However, due to the narrow dock, the speed of retreat has not been improved.

This is the first great disaster in the history of humankind in Azeroth in a thousand years-just because of a bad dock.

Therefore, after the second reconstruction of Stormwind, Stormwind has added a huge military and civilian port-Stormport!

However at this moment, here is just a fisherman's wharf that will not even be marked on the city map.

Duke was disappointed.

Not to mention that he couldn't get the boat for a while, even if he did, he wouldn't need it because the dock was too small. And he had trouble getting too many boats.

You little mage, what do you want to do with a fleet that is more exaggerated than the royal fleet?

There must be a proper reason!

In his mind, Duke quickly adjusted his plan.

"Go! Go to the shipyard first."

With a puzzled Windsor, Duke came to the boat yard next to Stormwind City Pier.

The shipyard is not large,

An old humpbacked man with a bare upper body showing no signs of aging muscles, saw Duke approaching, stunned for a few seconds before reacting, bowing and saluting.

After all, a combination of a mage robe, a young mage with a formal mage emblem, and a young knight student in a uniform, is absolutely rare in this place.

"Good morning, Your Excellency Mage. What can Jackson do for you?"

"How big a ship you can build here, I mean the biggest one." Duke pointed straight at the Royal Fleet parked in the harbour: "Can you build that big?"

Old Jackson froze for a moment, and then smiled bitterly: "How can this be, even the warships of the Storm Kingdom were ordered from Kul Tiras. We can only build dozens of tons of offshore fishing or cargo ships here."

"All right! I want ten!" Duke clapped on the spot.

As soon as this word came out, the audience was stunned, not only the old Jackson, but even Windsor, who followed him, was dumbfounded.

"Wait!" Windsor almost dragged him, dragging Dukla out of the shipyard to a place where nobody was.

"Mr. Marcus, the money is yours. I have no intention of asking you how to use money. But if you are going to build a ship for an investment, even if I am just a knight candidate who concentrates on martial arts, I will warn you that you pay deal!"

"Oh ?!" Duke's intriguing expression appeared on his face. "Why do you say that?"

"Looking at your subordinate Ryan, you can dispel this terrible idea. I know that your mage study requires a lot of money, and I also know that most of the existing money-making industries in Stormwind have been occupied by the nobles, but You can't waste money on the boat. "Wendersall waved his arms exaggeratedly, expressing the seriousness of the matter with his maximum body language.

"go on."

"Only poor people will be willing to eat fish that smells fishy, ​​and nobles will not eat this at all. Similarly, it makes no sense for you to build a small cargo ship of tens of tons. In the offshore area where such a boat can go, even a decent town No. Who do you sell the goods to? As soon as you get out of the sea, there are **** naga and fishmen everywhere. "

Duke still laughed.

Windsor became more and more anxious: "It is not that no merchant ships will come. In fact, only once a year, the Kul Tiras merchant ship team will come, and the dock is still the military port. They come to dump those that cannot be sold in the place. Of Lordaeron ’s goods to the nobles of Stormwind. ”

When Duke heard it, he was a bit enlightened.

The Storm Kingdom at this moment is still a barren land in the eyes of the nobles of the major human kingdoms on the mainland. In fact, if it was not for various invasions in the later generations, and the Scourge Army of all undeads would have almost destroyed the human kingdom north of Stormwind City, who would have expected that the Stormwind Kingdom would become the strongest and safest shelter for mankind. How about it?

"Duke! Listen to me, unless you can earn the money of the nobles, it is impossible for you to do any side job to satisfy the money you need to cultivate magic. This is why so many mages become court mages or nobles' exclusive mages. ... "

Duke laughed suddenly, and he smiled brightly: "Windersall, shall we make a bet?"

"Bet? You're almost dead."

"Indeed, whether it is for my personal cultivation or development, I need a lot of money. Then bet on whether I can earn 500 gold coins in three months. If I ca n’t make it, then it proves my That's all there is to it, I will let you go back to Lothar as your Cavaliers alternate. "

Windsor suddenly had an ominous hunch: "If you won?"

"First, I will call you Reggie in the future. Your name is too long and troublesome."

"..."

"Then you will confuse me later. I will tell you who is the hope and future of Stormwind Kingdom."
