Crossing the Other World: My Warcraft System
Chapter 28: Branch Mine Opening
In the days that followed, Jialin got up early in the morning to warm up, and after breakfast he went to the camp to train with his brothers in the Red Flame Army. When he returned at night he used his mental power to connect to the base.
At this moment, the base is on the right track, and various resources have kept up with the consumption generated by the training troops. With surplus resources, Garin is also constantly increasing the number of farms.
During this time, Garin also discovered another ability of the farmer, which is the ability to build buildings that are not affiliated with the Heart of Origin, such as a granary behind the town hall, and the city wall that is being built around the base.
Neither the granary nor the city wall are buildings in the list of bases in the Heart of Origin. It was the militia captain Cliff who suggested to Garin that the wheat on the farm was piled up like a mountain, and a granary could be built to store the food.
Garin was very surprised by this and asked Cliff if he had any other abilities. Cliff's answer opened the door to a new world for Garin.
Farmers are miners, loggers, grain collectors, and builders, so apart from the buildings in the base list, as long as they have blueprints and someone to direct them, they can build them.
So Garin got the blueprints of the Stromgarde granary, and under the command of Cliff, the cut wood was not sent to the lumberyard, but piled up behind the town hall, and several farmers began to build the granary.
Later, Garin had an idea and wanted to build a wall around the base, so he deployed a sentry tower every ten meters, and then asked Cliff to prepare the stones collected from the mine to build a stone wall to connect the sentry towers.
A small base fortress thus appeared.
For this purpose, Garin specially dispatched the Archmage Gandalf back to the base, asking him to lead his troops to capture the Highland Wild Horses around the base and build trucks, while he set off for the southeast mining area. The base also sent out a construction team composed of farmers. In addition to building a new town hall to divide the mine, they can also build city walls.
Originally, Garin was planning to recruit workers to build the city walls, withdraw after completion, and then let the farmers at the base come in to build the town hall. Now he doesn't need to do that. All the work will be done by the farmers at the base. When the time comes, Gandalf will lead the troops to patrol and surround the construction site. There will be no need to worry about anyone discovering anything unusual in the construction of the town hall.
At this moment, Garin had a bold idea. He didn't need to wait until he inherited the throne to meet the condition in the Altar of Kings: the Kingly Way, ruling a city with a population of over ten thousand.
He had no cities, so he built them himself. He had no population, but he could train at bases and plunder his troops. The more people there were, the higher the bonus the Altar of Kings would bring to him.
After this, Jialin felt that the wait was going to be long.
Finally, a week later, a convoy came from the west along Kingdom Avenue.
This was a team of more than a dozen carriages, escorted by a team of nearly two hundred people. The wheels pressed on the bluestone of the Kingdom Avenue, making a creaking sound.
It was not until the convoy stopped at the gate of the manor that Viscount Garson came over to tell Garin that the gold coins had been collected and delivered.
Garin arrived at the gate of the manor with excitement and saw the heavily guarded convoy.
At Viscount Garson's signal, a guard opened one of the many boxes on the carriage. The moment the box was opened, it seemed to shine with a dazzling golden light.
In fact, it was just the reflection of the sunlight on a box full of gold coins.
"Your Highness, these are the gold coins that our three families have saved up. Please check them."
In the human kingdom, and even among the various races in Azeroth, gold coins are not the most widely circulated currency. On the contrary, gold is a rare and valuable commodity no matter where it is.
People mostly use copper coins or silver coins as daily currency. Gold coins only appear in large quantities when commodities are traded, such as when wizards buy experimental materials, sell magic items, or trade between countries. More often, gold coins are only placed in the family treasuries of nobles, waiting for the day when they will be used.
One hundred thousand gold coins was close to one year’s tax revenue for the kingdom’s treasury.
"What an enviable group of dog owners."
Garin was dazzled by the gold coins. As a prince, he had never experienced the kind of life that nobles led, where they spent money lavishly.
In fact, this kind of aristocratic life was just his imagination. If the children of aristocrats were so wasteful, they would be on the verge of decline and would not be able to be passed down for several generations.
"No need to count. I have great trust in Uncle Garson, Teacher Dabire, and Viscount Newo."
"Thank you for your trust, Your Highness. What will you do with these gold coins?"
"Please ask Viscount Garson to help me move the gold coins into my barracks."
"No problem, Your Highness." Garson turned and told the team leader, "Merry, lead the team into His Highness's camp."
After bringing the convoy into the camp, Viscount Garson's men withdrew, and Garin also bid farewell to Viscount Garson.
"Uncle Garson, thank you for your care these days. Now that the gold coins have been handed over, I am ready to set off for the Southeast Mine."
Garson didn't try to persuade Garin to stay, and directly told Garin: "Your Highness, I have gathered people in the fiefdom these days, and we will set off tomorrow after the equipment is in place."
Viscount Garson paused for a moment and continued, "Viscount Newo's fiefdom is in the westernmost part of the kingdom. We are already on the way. Earl Dabire has already led his team to the southeast mine to do preliminary exploration and camp construction."
Garin was amazed at their efficiency, but it was not surprising. If they started working earlier, they could have output one day earlier. Otherwise, it would be a shame to see the fleet of golden coins just now.
After saying goodbye to Viscount Garson, Garin asked Omar to gather the troops and prepare to set off. Garin arranged for three hundred guards brought by Gandalf to escort the caravan.
On the other side, at the base, Gandalf also received a mental link from Garin and began to prepare for the assembly of the farmers. He was ready to dispatch nearly three hundred farmers, waiting for orders to go to the north to open a branch mine.
Before setting off, Garin released a royal falcon and told Danas of Geshak Farm about his itinerary and some plans, and hoped that he would help pay attention to the movements of the trolls in Deadwood Village.
The reason why Garin and several nobles chose this time point was that the high-ranking trolls in Deadwood Village had already passed through the Alterac Mountains and headed to the headquarters of Shadralo-Deadwood tribe in Hinterlands to participate in the grand memorial service for the spider Loa Shadra.
Taking advantage of the time difference of the trolls coming and going, they speeded up the construction of fortifications, gained a firm foothold, and blocked the Deadwood Village from the south and the north by joining forces with the militia led by Danas from Geshak Farm.
Garin had already told his father about his plan and obtained his permission, and gave Danas the right to act according to circumstances.
It was precisely because of the king's nod that the three great noble lords were so active in contributing manpower, money and effort, not just for the threefold profit of the mine.
