World of Warcraft Murloc City Guide - Chapter 383

c383 There is a mine at home

After the three little guys finished their report, they happily carried the Sea Witch Slate and left.

Yang Yi sat alone in the center of the town, and he checked the town’s attributes.

[Murloc Town Center]

[Medium Murloc Town]

[Civilization Level 5, Military Level 5]

[Civilization Value: 22091/50000, Military Value: 44982/50000]

Compared with before the expedition to Mulgore, the civilization value of Ratchet Town has increased by about 2000 points, and the military value has increased by about 4000 points.

During this expedition to Mulgore, nearly fifty of the fighting murlocs in Ratchet Town died and more than two hundred were injured, but the military value did not decrease but increased. This is mainly due to two reasons. First, the fighting murlocs who went on the expedition have been tempered in actual combat, and their experience and level have been improved; second, many murlocs have joined Ratchet Town in the past month, which has enhanced its military strength.

During this period of time, the improvement of the civilization value of Ratchet Town was much slower than the military value, mainly because the construction of Ratchet Town was a hindrance.

The lack of wood has greatly restricted the construction of Ratchet Town.

This town construction is part of material civilization. Because large-scale construction cannot be carried out, the civilization value will naturally rise slowly.

As for spiritual civilization, it is even more of a headache for Yang Yi. How should the spiritual civilization of the murlocs be built?

Putting aside the headache in advance, Yang Yi opened the map of Kalimdor and found the location of Azshara.

A big circle was drawn on the map of Azshara, which is where Yang Yi planned to build a logging camp.

Azshara is considered a cursed land by the night elves. The weather there is abnormal and storms always come. In addition, the winding reef maze under the sea makes it very dangerous for ships. Therefore, the tribe and the alliance ignored this area at the same time, and there are only one or two small outposts.

However, these harsh conditions are not a problem for the murlocs. Storms have basically no effect on the murlocs, and the reefs under the sea surface are not an obstacle to the murlocs. This is also the reason why Yang Yi plans to build a lumberyard in Azshara.

However, Yang Yi knows very little about the actual situation of Azshara, and he has never been there himself.

“There is too little information about Azshara outside, and even adventurers rarely go there. Now we only know that there are the two largest murloc clans in Kalimdor, and there are naga and sea giants. When Swat comes back, let him take a team of murloc ambushers to explore the way first.” Yang Yi thought.

The matter of building a lumberyard in Azshara cannot be rushed. The power of Ratchet Town does not cover Azshara. It needs to be done step by step. For the time being, we can only spend money to buy wood.

Speaking of money, Yang Yi also had a headache for a while.

Ratchet Town has developed many industries, but so far most of them have not been able to generate income for the town. It is good to be able to be self-sufficient.

Fortunately, the town now has a new way to open up and make money, which is the mine that has just been mined.

A small mine was built at the location of the former canyon murloc village on the Commercial Coast.

From then on, Ratchet Town finally lived a life of having a mine at home.

Yang Yi has already chosen the name of this mine, which is Canyon Mine.

With the three dog-headed brothers, Jinya, Gag and Narg, and the hundreds of dog-headed slaves who are good at digging that Ratchet Town bought early in the morning, the Canyon Mine operates smoothly.

A small dock was built on the coast closest to the Canyon Mine. Every two or three days, a sloop would run back and forth between the small dock and Ratchet Town.

A large amount of ores, stones and gems were mined and transported to Ratchet Town, among which [copper ore] and [inferior stone] were the most.

[Copper ore] is mainly used for forging equipment, and a small part of engineering equipment needs to be used.

Because the fishmen do not like to get close to the forging furnace, the forging industry in Ratchet Town has never been able to develop. The forging room in the town usually only hammers and repairs weapons and equipment, so the consumption of [copper ore] is not large.

Ratchet Town left a part of [copper ore] for the engineering workshop, and planned to sell the rest for gold coins.

[Inferior stones] can be used to make [inferior gunpowder], which is an indispensable material for [small fireworks]. All of them are reserved for the fishmen engineering technicians to process and practice.

This vein under the canyon of the Shanglv Coast is mainly copper ore, and occasionally tin ore and silver ore can be dug. Therefore, in addition to a large amount of [copper ore], the canyon mine also produces a small amount of [tin ore] and very little [silver ore].

In addition to ore, there are also a large number of [inferior stones] and [rough stones] and other by-products mined during mining, as well as [malachite], [tiger eye stone], [shadow stone], [green agate], [secondary moonstone] and other gems within level 3.

The output of mining is very rich, and this is still a low-level copper vein.

It is precisely because of this attractive output that Yang Yi has been hiding the existence of the vein and has been reluctant to build a mine.

Until now, Ratchet Town has a certain ability to protect itself, so it has decided to build a mine for large-scale mining.

There is now a large pile of [Copper Ore] in Ratchet Town, as well as a small amount of [Tin Ore] and [Silver Ore], and a few small bags of gems.

Those bags of gems are stored in the center of the town. Yang Yi opened the bag and took a look. The colorful gems were dazzling.

“If I wasn’t short of money, I really wouldn’t be willing to sell these gems.”

In fact, he was reluctant to sell the [Copper Ore], after all, ore is a strategic material, and you can never have too much.

“If I sell these things to goblin merchants, the middlemen will make a profit. It’s better to ship them to Exile Port and sell them. The trade license I bought from Gazlowe can come in handy now.” Yang Yi thought.

Yang Yi decided on the matter of the lumberyard and the mine. Then he jumped down to the town center and took a tour of the town.

The development of Ratchet Town has been on the right track. Old Blind Eye and his team also arranged the follow-up matters before the expedition. With the efforts of the three little guys, Guji Gudong and Little Naga, everything in Ratchet Town is running normally without any mistakes.

In this way, a few days later, the fishmen who went to Mulgore returned.

The purpose of this expedition has been achieved. The triumphant fishmen were warmly welcomed in Ratchet Town. Yang Yi simply held a celebration party to let the fishmen eat and drink well.

The next day, Yang Yi summoned Old Blind Eye and the others to the center of the town, and he decided to reward them according to their merits.

Ratchet Town will definitely encounter various battles in the future, and each murloc will perform differently on the battlefield, so post-war evaluation and rewards and punishments are essential.

The murlocs have a very direct way of thinking, and only by making rewards and punishments clear can the murlocs work hard on the battlefield.

Yang Yi sat on a chair in front of the big table, while Old Blind Eye, Brak, Magofen, Swat, Jagu, Thief Eye and other murlocs sat in a row on the straw mat.

They are the heroes of this expedition to Mulgore.
