Crossing the Other World: My Warcraft System

Chapter 20 The landlord has no surplus food

Perfect, perfect. Facing his father's serious questioning, Garin was confident and everything was as expected. Please call me "Garin Wolong Trollbane".

"Father, I understand what kind of trolls I am going to face. They are primitive, barbaric, cruel, and will even eat us humans." Garin said, feeling a little agitated.

Having played a troll druid in his previous life, Garin had no prejudice against the troll race. He knew that the trolls in the game were just a small and relatively open-minded Darkspear tribe, and he also knew that in the background of the game world, some trolls ate everything, including humans and even their own kind.

After crossing to Azeroth, he was in a real world and could truly feel the world. The saying that trolls ate people was no longer a virtual game background. He had heard of it and had also seen it in the trolls' baggage carts.

He couldn't accept it.

The trolls' diet includes humans, and they eat the people of the kingdom, his future people. He has the ability to change this, and he must change this.

"Father, more than ten days ago, my guards and I encountered a group of twenty trolls in this mining area, and we wiped them out. In Sancha Town, we identified that two of these trolls were on the wanted list of the kingdom's army. One is the troll witch doctor Toby, and the other is the great warrior Atadin. They are the backbone of the Deadwood tribe and have led the team to attack our village many times."

"I cut off those heads myself, father."

Garin said this last sentence to Solas in a firm tone.

There was a brief silence in the study.

Solas seemed to sense Garin's determination from his words. After a long silence, he said, "I agree."

These words were like the sound of nature. After hearing them, Jialin raised his head suddenly and looked at his father with burning eyes.

"Thank you father."

"Don't be happy too soon." Seeing Garin's happy expression, Solas immediately poured a basin of cold water on him.

"That mining area is the ancestral property of the Trollbane family. I can give you the mining rights of that mining area. As for the fiefdom, I will give you the right to fiefdom after you turn sixteen."

"I will give you a cavalry regiment to expand your original guard. Other than that, I have no extra support to give you."

Garin was stunned after hearing this. The first half was all according to his script. He gave them land and men when he asked for them, and it was an elite team like the Highland Cavalry Regiment. Although there was only one team, the selection standard of the cavalry regiment was to have at least intermediate strength, and the weakest among them was at the fourth level.

I guessed the beginning, but I didn't guess the ending.

It doesn’t matter whether the land is granted or not. Garin just wants a superficial army to cover up the military units trained in the base.

It would be fine if they had mining rights. The army could make their own decisions and recruit mining personnel. Then it would be so easy to add sand to the army and the mining area.

But Solas has no other support besides a cavalry regiment? No financial support? No money? Can you give me some money? Just a little bit? It's okay.

"Father, why don't you support me with some gold coins? Can you give me some initial capital?"

Garin couldn't accept it. He used 10,000 gold coins to recharge the base, but it couldn't even make a splash. At most, he could train more than a hundred footmen. He needed Solas' financial support. He really needed the money.

"The kingdom's treasury has no extra gold coins. The army's weapons and equipment need to be replaced, and an order has been placed with Ironforge. This is a huge expense. The Thoradin Wall needs to be repaired, and farmers need to be recruited and paid. We are no longer able to allocate funds to you."

"Not at all?"

"The next tax will be collected after the autumn harvest, which will take some time. After the autumn harvest, the surplus grain will be traded, and then we can allocate a sum of money to you from the treasury."

"Don't you have your own caravan? You must have saved up some money over the years. You should figure it out on your own in the early stages. Now is the time to test your abilities."

Seeing that Solas really had no money, Garin had to give up the idea of ​​asking for land, people, and money. Although he only achieved half of his goal today, he felt very happy.

Just the mining rights of the mining area is an exciting thing. Since ancient times, where there are mines, there is money. You see, "My family has a mine" is a sentence that can better show others that my family is rich and I am rich than this sentence?

No one can refuse minerals that come to their doorstep, and since Solas did not mention taxes, Garin assumed that he did not need to pay taxes to his father.

If you don't say yes, then you don't want no, there's nothing wrong with that.

Others may worry about the initial expenses, such as the need to pay settlement fees when recruiting workers, and the need to pay wages in the later stages. However, you do not need to worry about these issues. As long as you use farmers trained at the base, you do not need settlement fees or wages, but only three meals a day.

I, Garin, will be the largest landlord in Arathi Highlands in the future. The thing I have no shortage of is food.

My biggest problem now is that the base mine is full of mining and I need to open a branch mine.

However, some initial funds still need to be prepared, so as to speed up the progress of the base. Relying solely on the money-making speed of Garin's own caravan is just a drop in the bucket.

The farmer's collection speed is ten units of resources per hour. Garin has already experimented with it and found that ten units of gold are equivalent to the value of five gold coins. This speed is quite amazing.

But this is of no use. The base only allows money to go in but not out. Garin has not found the option to convert the gold mined by the farmers into gold coins. Moreover, Garin discovered that the gold resources defined by the base may not only refer to gold mines.

Including rare ores associated with gold mines, or collected copper and silver mines, etc. After the farmers have collected them, the town hall will absorb them all and convert them into the energy needed by the base. This energy is simply and crudely named gold by the base.

This is really difficult for the great god of the Heart of Origin Base, and Garin expressed his admiration.

There is also timber. Through repeated observations by Jialin, it takes about an hour for a farmer to cut down a century-old tree that is so thick that a person can hug it, process it, and move it into the logging site.

The original forest where the base is located, these centuries-old trees are about ten meters high. Farmers will remove the branches and cut them into one-meter lengths, and then transport them to the logging site. The base wood is displayed as +1.

Garin was quite satisfied with the speed at which the farmers collected resources.

Moreover, the more farmers there are, the speed of resource collection will increase exponentially. There is no population limit for the base. As long as the farm construction speed keeps up and there is no shortage of food, training a large number of farmers is a way to increase one's current strength.

The mines at the base were already fully occupied, so Garin had Cliff divide the miners into two shifts in order to collect gold most efficiently.

Originally, Garin was hoping that his father would support him with some money, so that he could go to the town hall to recharge, and then recruit some farmers and infantrymen to open a branch mine in the southeast mining area, which is the location of the Stonefist Hall.

That idea has now been shattered.
