Necromancer in another world

Chapter 450 What a Thick Face and Dark Heart
Sitting on the main seat, Leo listened to Adelaide's plan for dealing with various affairs of the Arathor Kingdom, but his thoughts drifted to other places.

It has been more than half a month since he returned to Stromgarde from Thunder Bluff. A few days ago, Pasonia sent him a message. met.As Leo expected, Jaina said that Theramore would fully support Varian, allowing him to return to Stormwind to stabilize the situation.

As long as Varian returns to the center of power in the Kingdom of Stormwind, a battle related to the situation of the entire human race will begin.

In order to go to Stormwind City, Leo is making preparations. He has to handle the affairs of Arathor Kingdom's rear area properly before the battle in Stormwind City begins.

I don't know if God deliberately opposed him, but at this moment a major event happened, that is, the Stromgarde navy led by Binder officially fought with the Bloodsail pirates.With the task of exploring the sea route, Binder finally arrived at Booty Bay after stopping all the way. The commander of the navy of Stromgarde led the long-distance army and just took a short rest before smashing against the Bloodsail pirates.

Originally, this was not a hindrance, Leo's order to Binder was to fight the Bloodsail Pirates, but the situation got out of control during the battle.Binder is from the Kul Tiras sailors of Daelin's lineage, and has old grudges with the Bloodsail pirates. The sailors of Stromgarde were originally newcomers, although they have improved a lot after a lot of training along the way. How could they compare to the Bloodsail pirates who could compete with the Kul Tiras navy?Several successive battles were defeated by the opponent. If Binder hadn't returned to the harbor in time and relied on the port's defense facilities to resist the opponent's attack, the navy of Stromgarde would have suffered heavy losses.

After receiving the battle report that Binder was beaten by the Bloodsail pirates and could only shrink back to the port defense, some people took action. The admirals of the Theramore Kingdom who had not returned to Jaina actually led their soldiers loyal to them quietly Through the teleportation array, they came to Booty Bay to join the battle, and they entered in disorder.

Through the naval battle in Booty Bay, he brought the Kul Tiras navy who was dissatisfied with Jaina in Theramore into his command. This was originally a plan that Leo had arranged long ago. After all, he also came from the blood of Kul Tiras. The sail pirates had a grudge with them, and they couldn't just sit and watch the pirates show off their power in front of the army led by Binder.

Judging from Leo's previous plan, it can be said that it was very successful. Many elite sailors in Theramore were attracted there. They joined Binder's fleet and fought the Bloodsail Pirates in Booty Bay. At the same time, he acquiesced in the fact that he became the Stromgarde Navy.

But the plan couldn't keep up with the changes, and something like Varian happened, and Leo was in trouble.

As the saying goes, if there is no skin left, there will be nothing left. As the largest force of the human race, the Stormwind Kingdom cannot experience major turmoil, at least not at this time, otherwise the power of the human race will plummet, and both Stromgarde and Theramore will be greatly affected. The influence of this kind of influence is extremely bad, and it is very likely that Stromgarde will face a big crisis.

As the two strengths supporting Varian, Stromgarde and Theramore cannot clash at this time, but Theramore's elite navy suddenly jumped nearly one-third to Stromgarde. The chances of a conflict not occurring are slim to none.

"Edelaide, Sinestra is an expert in government affairs. What can you discuss with her?"

Leo pushed Sinai Salaya out. The Queen of the Black Dragon used to be in charge of the Black Dragon Clan. She is indeed an expert under the imperial court. The internal affairs of the Human Kingdom may be different, but it is not difficult for her at all.

Adelaide did not disagree with Leo's words. In fact, he also knew that the future prince of the kingdom was not interested in the complicated government affairs. Sinestra's woman was at work.Edelaide admired her superb political skills and extremely fast efficiency in handling government affairs. What Leo said now was just giving a definite name to the already existing facts.

"Wait a while, in the name of Her Majesty the Queen, send a letter to Jaina of Theramore, telling her that there are priorities, and at this moment, the overall situation should be the top priority."

Leo's order made Adlaide dumbfounded. Stromgarde pried off Theramore's corner and poached nearly one-third of its elite sailors. Now Leo actually wants Jaina to put the overall situation first. Isn't that true? Is Hong Guoguo a bully?

But then again, judging by Jaina's consistent performance, she might really put this matter on hold temporarily, because helping Varian stabilize the situation in the Stormwind Kingdom so that the strength of the race will not decline, Biben did nothing to her The part of the Navy that returns home is far more important.

Poaching someone else's navy elite and asking others to put the overall situation first, this is really thick-skinned, and this is really shameless, but the benefit is that Stromgarde is so thick-faced and black-hearted, so why not?With such thoughts in mind, Edelaide nodded in agreement.

"Is there a plan for the kingdom's maritime trade rights?"

Leo then raised a new question. Edlaide was a little confused about this matter. The Kingdom of Arathor is now in a state of disrepair and it is time to carry out large-scale trade. Among these trades, sea transportation is the most important. , why do you want to make a plan to restrict trade? Isn't this adding to yourself?

Although full of doubts, Adelaide organized a staff to discuss a plan after Leo explained the matter. Out of trust in Leo, no one in Stromgarde questioned his order, or in other words, Leo appeared under the authority that no one dared him to question his orders until the problem arose.

"The plan has been drawn up, but..."

Edelaide hesitated when he spoke, he wanted to ask Leo's purpose for doing this, but Leo didn't mean to explain.

"Now that it's ready, let Sinestra take a look. If there are no problems, let Viri take this plan to negotiate with Gallywix. I believe that the Bilgewater Plutocrats will not be able to refuse."

The so-called maritime trade restrictions are actually an idea Leo came up with from the world before crossing. It is absolutely impossible to impress the mercenary Gallywix without offering heavyweight bait, even though the character of this goblin trade prince is really It's scumbag, but how can he be so clueless if he can sit in his position?
To put it bluntly, Leo's maritime trade restriction is to sign an exclusive agreement with the Rustwater Conglomerate, allowing the Rustwater Consortium to conduct exclusive business. Once this agreement is signed, Stromgarde will only accept the trade ships of the Rustwater Consortium.

What is the most profitable business in the world?
Monopoly, only monopoly!
Although Leo did not restrict trade on land, sea freight was a big part of the trade, and the wealth he could earn by monopolizing this was enough to impress Gallywix. In order for the goblins to really contribute, Leo was not too deceitful this time.

Not too deceitful?
Well, in fact, this is also cheating people.

The agreement says that Stromgarde does not accept trade ships other than the Bilgewater Plutocrats and is not subject to this restriction, but it does not say that the ports of the entire Arathor Kingdom will not allow trade ships from other forces to enter-in fact, this is not the case. possible.As long as Leo thinks, he can turn Fadil Bay, which is not far from Stromgarde, into a port. The distance between the two places will not take much time for ships from other forces to go there even if they have to go overland. .

For the Bilgewater Plutocrats, this agreement plan is not as good as Leo described for them.

Fadil Bay, which has been intentionally abandoned, may not be remembered by Gallywix. Even if he can think of it, it is impossible to refuse to monopolize such a big piece of Stromgarde's maritime trade. You must know that this trade prince is known for his crazy wealth.

If this still doesn't allow Gallywix to make a decision, then Leo will contact Silvermoon City to let the blood elves stand with him and drag the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas into it.In this way, it would be strange for Gallywix to be able to control the huge temptation of monopolizing the sea trade of the two kingdoms under reconstruction.

The blood elves, who are trying to restore the former glory of the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas, have a much larger trade volume than Stromgarde, and the exquisite enchanted equipment and magic gems made by the blood elves are in high demand. If they can monopolize the sea trade, Garive Max's wealth can increase by at least [-]%. As a trade prince, he can't refuse, because if he doesn't do this, someone else will do it, such as the Blackwater plutocrat.

I have already cast the bait, Gallywix is ​​a fish he has to swallow, the Bilgewater Conglomerate is not the same as the Blackwater Conglomerate that is quietly developing, as long as he can make a lot of money, he will not care whether it will expose the powerful war power of the goblins Potential is such a thing.

Thinking about the war potential of goblins who can stand shoulder to shoulder with gnomes in terms of engineering, Leo feels that he can relax a little bit. The war situation where the Bilgewater plutocrats messed up in the Plaguelands has become a new force to contain the Scourge, whether it is the Alliance or The Horde can get a chance to breathe. Everyone can solve the problems of the Aqir Empire beetle in Silithus first and then deal with the Scourge.

"Lord Leo, good news!"

Viri suddenly walked into the conference hall with a look of joy, and saw his personal guard captain Leo's heart move. Could it be that Scarlett has left the customs?

"Her Majesty has been successfully promoted to Epic, she asked me to report to you, and I will come after she has cleaned up."

Viri's next words confirmed Leo's conjecture. It was indeed about Scarlett. The female knight who had retreated for many days in order to break the barrier between legends and epics finally appeared. She has successfully promoted to a strong epic rank. By.

This shrew really succeeded, but when it comes to grooming...Leo scratched his head a little, wondering how long it would take, it is said that it takes a lot of time for women to do this kind of thing.

"Great, Her Majesty the Queen has successfully promoted to an epic powerhouse. She can control the power of the Judgment Armor and the Sword of Ashcandi. Now the family will soon regain its former glory."

Edlaide laughed happily, in stark contrast to Leo scratching his head.
