World of Warcraft Murloc City Guide - Chapter 341
c341 Gone
Yang Yi followed the little fishman’s empty wine barrel around the backwater village, and then Yang Yi let him go about his business first.
There is currently only one street in the commercial district of Backwater Village. There are many shops on both sides of the street, but the street is deserted.
While Yang Yi was walking on the street, he was thinking about how to attract people so that the backwater village could increase its income.
Yang Yi’s first consideration was the geographical location of Backwater Village.
Yang Yi had already turned over the map of the Barrens, and now the entire map seemed to be engraved in his mind.
With the arrival of the tribe, the Barrens gradually prospered and became a trading center.
A road called the Golden Road runs through the north and south of the Barrens, connecting Thousand Needles in the south and Ashenvale in the north;
There is also a major road that runs from east to west, connecting Ratchet Bay, an outlet to the sea in the east, and the Stonetalon Mountains in the west.
The crossroads is located at the intersection of two major roads, which facilitated its rapid development.
The Backwater Village is just southeast of the intersection.
Not far to the west of the village is the Golden Road, and to the north is the crossroads leading to Ratchet Bay.
It stands to reason that the geographical location of Backwater Village is quite good, the transportation is very convenient, and it is a good place for businessmen and adventurers to rest and trade.
The problem is that the backwater village is a bit close to the crossroads. If you walk faster, you can get there in half a day.
Now the backwater village has just started, and the crossroads is already a central market town for the tribe in the Barrens, so people are attracted to the crossroads.
Yang Yi walked on the street thinking of a solution. The doors and windows of the houses on both sides of the street were closed, and they were all storefronts that had not been rented out.
After walking forward for a while and reaching the middle of the street, Yang Yi finally saw a store open for business.
There were not many people on the street, but there were still people open for business.
Yang Yi was curious about what kind of business this store was doing, so he walked over.
When I got closer, I saw a log store sign hanging at the door, with a row of words written in red ink on it.
(Knights of the Holy Sword)
“Well, you can tell whose store it is just by looking at the name.” Yang Yi smiled.
Yang Yi knew that this group called the Knights of the Holy Sword was actually composed of several classmates in the same class, and the name had nothing to do with the group.
It was the leader of the Knights of the Holy Sword who offered to invest some money in exchange for a house in the Backwater Village, which gave Yang Yi the idea to raise funds from adventurers to build the Backwater Village. Later, the Backwater Village was attacked by centaurs, and when the investment adventurers had no confidence in the fishmen and demanded their money back, it was the Knights of the Holy Sword who chose to believe in Ratchet Town and invest more in the Backwater Village.
Based on the performance of the Knights of the Holy Sword, Yang Yi promised to keep a house in a good location that could be used as a store.
The third-level village house with a storefront in front of me was allocated to the Knights of the Holy Sword by the Backwater Village. The location of this house is perfect, it is right in the middle of the street.
According to Yang Yi’s plan, a second street will be expanded in the future commercial district, with the two streets crisscrossing each other.
At that time, this house will be located at the intersection of two streets, which will be the most prosperous area.
Yang Yi really wanted to keep such a good position for himself, but he had promised the Knights of the Holy Sword, and the Knights of the Holy Sword later helped inform the Centaur’s movements, which was a great help to Ratchet Town, so he could only I reluctantly gave up my love.
As soon as Yang Yi approached, he was noticed by a man and a woman sitting in the store.
When the two of them noticed Yang Yi coming, they immediately jumped up from their chairs and ran out to greet him.
Yang Yi recognized the two people who ran out immediately. They were two young and lively familiar faces.
The boy is the squad leader and the Holy Sword Knight, and the girl is the study committee member and the Holy Sword Knight.
“The mayor is here, and our store is full of glory and glory.” A knight of the Holy Sword sang loudly, making it look impressive.
Yang Yi is very immune to all kinds of weird behaviors of adventurers. He asked: “What kind of business does your store do?”
“Our store is engaged in lumber business, and the mayor is welcome to visit.” A Holy Sword Knight replied.
Yang Yi walked into the store and took a look, and found that there was nothing on the containers inside, but there were some scattered dead branches and sawdust on the ground.
“It seems that business is very good, everything is sold out.” Yang Yi said.
“Hey, business is good, but there is no place to buy goods, and there is no goods to sell.” A Holy Sword Knight said.
The source of wood for the Knights of the Holy Sword is the Ashvale lumberyard in the north. Now that the war in Ashvale is ongoing, it is difficult for them to purchase goods.
“Is this timber business profitable? What kind of timber is the most profitable to sell?” Yang Yi asked.
Faced with Yang Yi’s straightforward question about making money, a Holy Sword Knight quietly asked the two Holy Sword Knights with his eyes. After getting approval, he told the truth: “Our wood mainly comes from Ash Valley, where many white trees grow. Poplar, so we mainly sell poplar. However, poplar is only suitable for building low-grade houses, so the price has never been high. The profit margin is oak. Oak has very good magical properties, and people like to buy it to make weapons and equipment. Unfortunately, oak is rare, and old oak is even rarer. You can see that the containers at the back are empty. ”
Yang Yi nodded after listening. Many of the poplar trees brought by the Knights of the Holy Sword were bought by the fishmen to build the backwater village. Their main customers are the fishmen of Backwater Village, which is probably why they keep their shop open.
As for oak, Yang Yi had heard about the special effects of this wood, and he asked the old blind man to buy some of them.
Then the two of them told Yang Yi some knowledge about wood, and finally complained bitterly, saying that it was difficult to do business and make money.
Yang Yi had just asked casually, but he didn’t expect the two of them to say a lot, so he quickly reached out to stop them.
“As long as there are more people on the street, you can make money in any business. You also know that the adventurers have run to the crossroads. I’m thinking about how to call the adventurers back. Do you have any ideas?” Yang Yi asked.
The two didn’t expect Yang Yi, the fishman mayor, to ask them this question, and they were stunned for a while.
Yang Yi has an advantage, that is, he knows himself. Knowing that his brain is not so good, he asks more people.
A holy sword knight stared at the two holy sword knights with his eyes, wanting to have a fierce eye contact.
“You are the squad leader, you have a way.” The two holy sword knights said with their eyes turned away.
Yang Yi looked at a holy sword knight.
“What the study committee member said is right. Everything she said is right.” A Holy Sword Knight said, “Our study committee member is both discerning, kind-hearted, smart and beautiful…”
The two Holy Sword Knights couldn’t listen any more. She turned around and left before the Holy Sword Knight finished speaking.
“Although you left, I will always be here as long as you look back.” A Holy Sword Knight called out affectionately to the backs of the two Holy Sword Knights.
Yang Yi was speechless. Why did he suddenly start licking?
A Holy Sword Knight probably saw Yang Yi’s mood at the moment. He clenched his right fist and raised it to his chest: “I believe that as long as I lick fast enough, other dogs will have no way to start.”
The young man was very energetic. Yang Yi applauded him and asked: “What’s your method?”
“Ahem,” a Holy Sword Knight coughed twice and put down his fist, “Mayor Poseidon, I didn’t lick randomly just now. Our study committee member just said that there must be a way. I know her very well.”
After hearing what he said, Yang Yi felt that there was a high probability that it was impossible. Of course, he didn’t have much hope, so there was no disappointment.
Yang Yi walked out of the store and walked on the street.
After a while, a small patrol fishman ran over.
It turned out that Slark, who had been unconscious, woke up.
Yang Yi was concerned about Slark’s injury and hurried back to the hotel.
Slark sat on the bed in the hotel. He found that his dorsal fin was corroded by venom and was in a very low mood.
The dorsal fin of a murloc is equivalent to the fleshy comb of a bird, which is a sexual feature used to attract the opposite sex. The destruction of a murloc’s dorsal fin is equivalent to the destruction of a rooster’s comb. No wonder Slark is in a bad mood.
Yang Yi walked over and wanted to say something to comfort Slark.
Slark saw Yang Yi standing up and said, “Lord, the multi-headed snake has hidden in the lake again. What should we do?”
“You should focus on healing first. You don’t have to worry about the multi-headed snake. I will find a way.” Yang Yi said.
Yang Yi actually didn’t have any good solutions. Facing high-level enemies, the most feared thing is that the opponent has high defense and escapes.
The enemy has high defense, and the attack cannot break the defense, no matter how many people there are, it’s useless.
The enemy can escape, and it’s all in vain if it escapes after fighting for a long time.
The multi-headed snake Geshalahan happens to have both of them, and it can also spit out poison for group attacks, which is really a headache for Yang Yi.
Yang Yi can only discuss this matter with Jagu and Jerrick.
Are they going to use the same old trick and lure the multi-headed snake up with food again?
Just when Yang Yi and the others were worried, the little fishman Empty Wine Barrel suddenly ran into the inn.
“Mayor, Empty Wine Barrel has something to report.” The little fishman Empty Wine Barrel said hurriedly.
“What’s the matter?” Yang Yi asked.
“The multi-headed snake, the multi-headed snake is gone.” The little fishman Empty Wine Barrel said anxiously.
“Gone?” Yang Yi asked, “What do you mean? Tell me.”
“Mayor, it’s like this. Since the multi-headed snake appeared, the lake has been restless. As long as it moves, the lake water will be muddy. But today, Empty Wine Barrel found that the lake water has been silent, so he quietly went into the water to take a look, but he couldn’t find the multi-headed snake.” The little fishman Empty Wine Barrel said.
Yang Yi was discussing with Jagu and Jerrick about how to deal with the multi-headed snake. After hearing what the little fishman Empty Wine Barrel said, they immediately ran to the lake.
In order to confirm whether the hydra was really not in the lake, a large group of fishmen from Dead Water Village went into the water to search in the lake.
As a result, just as the little fishman Kong Jiutong said, the hydra Geshalahan disappeared.
“It’s such a good thing.” Yang Yi was overjoyed.
It was best that the hydra Geshalahan disappeared, and the town of Ratchet would not have to go through so much trouble to defeat it again.
“But with the huge size of the hydra, it is impossible for it to climb ashore and leave quietly through land, so how did it run away?” Jagu asked as he looked at the lake.
Yang Yi also felt strange, and he said: “In fact, we don’t know how the hydra appeared in this lake. We fishmen have already explored this lake before, and we can be sure that the hydra was not in the lake at that time.”
Everyone was puzzled.
The minotaur Jerick was thoughtful, and he looked to the west, where there was another oasis in the Barren Land – the direction of the Sweet Water Oasis.
“I think the secret of the disappearance of the hydra is hidden under the ground of this land.” Jerick said slowly.
