Chapter 69 Westfall Trade Market 2
Soon the gnolls below who were resting or conducting transactions noticed the human soldiers on the city wall and immediately grasped the handle of the weapon vigilantly.
After noticing that the human soldiers were just standing guard on the city wall, the gnolls in the market temporarily calmed down.
Comparing the proportion of humans and kobolds and murlocs above and below the city wall, it was obvious that the murlocs accounted for the majority. The wise men among the jackals secretly breathed a sigh of relief, basically ruling out the possibility of murlocs and kobolds colluding with humans to trap them.
.
Ordinary gnolls observed that the human soldiers did not have official signs, they were not the Stormwind soldiers who often expelled them, and the humans on the city wall did not make any hostile actions, so naturally they could not be listed as hostile targets.
Seeing that the jackals didn't react excessively when seeing humans, Zhang Weidao finally let go of his uneasiness.
It would be troublesome if these gnolls shouted to kill on the spot as soon as they saw humans. Even if there were more familiar murlocs to mediate, it might not be possible. At this time, the cold attitude of the gnolls was enough.
In fact, Zhang Weidao overthought some things. Most of the jackals were entrenched in the hills and mountains, and they no longer had much conflict with the humans farming on the plains.
Except for sometimes stealing food from the farm and being expelled by the soldiers, other times it was a matter of course. The two sides did not really form a deadly feud, and it was not that they had to fight each other when they met.
After discovering the appearance of human soldiers on the city wall, the atmosphere of the trading venue was still a little affected. After all, the relationship between jackals and humans was not good, and both sides had a lot of grudges in their hearts.
At this time, the old blind man rushed to the market with a few spellcasters. When the gnolls saw the legend of the western wilderness, they immediately ran over excitedly, because the human beings were a little unhappy and their mood instantly improved.
The melee-type gnolls gathered around the old blind man asking for advice, while the spellcasters from the two races were exchanging spell knowledge together, and other unrelated professionals gathered around to join in the fun.
The atmosphere in the venue instantly became harmonious with the appearance of Old Blind Eye, and both parties began to enter into a normal state of communication.
Zhang Weidao couldn't help but sigh that this person's effect was so powerful that he instantly impressed these more wary guys.
At the same time, he saw that the spell casters on both sides were actively discussing spell knowledge, but most of the time it was the jackals who asked questions unilaterally. Zhang Weidao began to pay attention to the murloc's spell casting talent.
When I first started dealing with the murlocs, I discovered that they had more spellcasters. Now it seems that not only do the murlocs have a large population base, but their knowledge reserves are also considerable.
Murlocs, who can be seen everywhere in Azeroth, are very convenient to obtain general knowledge about various professions.
Just look at the fact that in the past few days, there are always fishmen bringing all kinds of strange items to the exchange office. They can get you any weird things.
Zhang Weidao plans to develop some equipment specifically for murlocs, so as to better attract them to work hard. After all, it is too monotonous to only have weapons that can be exchanged.
Those gnolls, on the other hand, are not so particular about their equipment. The weapons are basically universal, and the armor only needs to be modified to fit it.
With the participation of Lao Blind Eye, the trading market under the city has completely turned into a professional experience exchange conference.
After the trade representatives from each tribe completed the handover of goods, they all gathered together to exchange various experiences. The market management did not hesitate to spend some food and drinks.
As the sun set, the feast came to an end. The gnolls who came to trade took their goods and returned to the tribe with satisfaction.
Seeing the jackal leaders happily leading their men back, Zhang Weidao returned to the mine very happily.
Just now, Old Blind Eye and the others were bragging about their glorious deeds. These team leaders also unintentionally revealed their identities. They are basically the powerful people in each tribe.
These guys came over through scouts to try out the trade once, and then went into battle in person the second time they made the official trade. All of them were bold guys.
However, these jackal leaders are not weak in strength. They are all advanced in strength, but none of them have been promoted to the hero level. So when the orcs invade, they are indeed no match.
Moreover, they didn’t know the hero-level combat power of uniting and beating the orcs to death. In the end, they were defeated by the orcs and had to live in hiding.
In fact, these jackals are just like the fishmen. Even if a powerful leader emerges to unify the tribes, it is unlikely that the orcs can defeat each other when they invade.
Just seeing that Old Blind Eye had tens of thousands of murloc soldiers, he had a lot of conflicts with the orcs, but he didn't get any benefits.
Treat fighting like a group fight. Once the war begins, they rush forward in a swarm. There is no threat in front of the fully formed army. They can only rely on personal force to knock down a few enemies and then run away.
However, these races that do not have many twists and turns are indeed easier to fool. In order to provide them with enough food and provide high-quality equipment in exchange, they can be successfully tied into tanks. Zhang Weidao's employment conditions
I accepted it easily.
The jackal leader who returned to the tribe distributed the supplies and began to arrange the members of the tribe according to the employment requirements.
The members of the tribe with strong combat capabilities will arrange border patrol missions after the formation is registered. Zhang Weidao contracted the task of monitoring the twilight forest across the river to them in sections, dividing the sections according to the number of combatants from each tribe.
The remaining young men in the tribe will also be employed by the mine, and they will all go to the mine to participate in production and construction. It is said that they are all labor jobs such as transporting materials. As long as you have the strength, you can do it.
Whether they are combat employment or production employment, they include food and accommodation, and monthly supplies are distributed to support the whole family.
When the Jackal leader heard about such generous treatment, he couldn't believe it at the time, and felt that the young human in front of him must be stupid.
Isn't this feeding their entire tribe for free! As long as they help fight and work, the whole family can have enough to eat. This condition is too good. The jackal leader quickly raised his paw and pressed his paw prints on the employment agreement.
Later, he was afraid that Zhang Weidao would regret it, so he called his men to get the supplies and ran back to the tribe to arrange manpower, preparing to bring most of the manpower to report tomorrow.
According to the leader of the Jackal tribe, there is no need to think of ways to fill the bellies of the tribe every day, let alone worrying about food sources. This is the perfect way of life!
And you can also eat a variety of delicious food, and there is a fixed supply of wine. Thinking of the wine he drank at noon, the jackal leader couldn't help but pick up the wine bottle and take another sip.
Wine is a very precious thing. Even human commoners cannot often drink this kind of wine, let alone other backward races.
Wine is very precious in the Jackal tribe, and the shamans are very strict about wine. They can only drink some during sacrifices during major festivals.
So when Zhang Weidao proposed a condition that included the supply of wine, everyone from the leader to the shaman agreed unanimously, and all the strong labor force of the entire tribe was sold on the spot, just to obtain those precious wine quotas.
The excitement on the Jackal leader's face when he signed the employment agreement dumbfounded Zhang Weidao, who was observing their reactions.
In fact, Zhang Weidao still doesn't know enough about the value of wine. You must know that Jiage went to the Black Iron Dwarves before, but in exchange for a lot of rare materials and minerals.
