Stormwind Wizard God-Chapter 582: Back on Draenor
Chapter 582 - Back on Draenor
The year 3 after the Dark Portal was a relatively peaceful year for the Alliance.
Duke continued his evil training of Jaina, oh no, it was careful teaching.
He adopted a completely different teaching method from the Dalaran mages. In terms of character shaping, Duke would often take Jaina to Tirisfal Glades to clear out the orcs, or take Jaina to the Swamp of Sorrows to deal with the orcs and various swamp creatures there.
The princess, who was once as beautiful as a flower, often went out clean in the morning and came back in the evening covered in mud because of Duke's torture.
At first, letters of complaint from the head maids and ladies-in-waiting of Kul Tiras flew to their country like snowflakes. Later, they found that many times even after they had been confirmed to be presented to King Daelin, they still fell on deaf ears. They also realized that their own king had condoned all this.
In the field of magic, Duke's education method is more like free-range.
After the system scanned it, Duke directly told Jaina that you can study any book in any area here, and you can study any type you want. If you can't find the book, ask the ghost, oh, ask Khadgar.
Bored Khadgar reads magic books every day because he has nothing to do, so he is more proficient in magic than Duke.
Of course, Duke always finds a way to demonstrate its presence and value.
Every time Jaina practiced new magic, Duke could always see at a glance what the problem was with Jaina and how to practice the super magic expertise of the magic under the scanning of the system AI.
After some discussion, even if Jaina was unwilling to accept it, she had to admit that this mentor, who was only four years older than her, was indeed qualified to teach her.
It was May of the third year after the Dark Portal, the end of spring and the beginning of summer, and the cement road that ran east-west through the entire Elwynn Forest was basically paved. With Duke providing the advance payment and technology, the railway project was officially launched by the dwarves and employed a large number of Stormwind Kingdom workers.
At the same time, there is an equally grand reconstruction project for Stormwind City.
Llane once doubted whether it was reliable for a country as weak as Stormwind to carry out two extremely costly projects that required a huge amount of manpower and material resources at the same time.
Because from a purely monetary perspective, the cost is more than 10 million gold coins, and no one can calculate the funds required for various small projects.
Duke responded: "If someone else were to do this, it would be looking for death, but I am a once-in-a-millennium genius in internal affairs in Azeroth, so leave it to me."
The Duke spoke in a very arrogant manner, and the interior ministers were not convinced at first.
I have to say, for a college student who knows a little about market economics and travels to this medieval world, it is extremely easy to manage the economy.
Simply giving away relief food and clothing did initially prevent the worst situation of people starving to death or freezing to death.
But if you give too much and for too long, another result will occur - it will easily breed lazy people.
It's not that there aren't people with holy character in the world, it's just that there are too many mediocre people that people yearn for saints. On the other hand, if everyone in the world were to live a life like an ascetic monk, 99% of people would not do it.
Duke's approach is to provide work-for-relief.
The first step was to issue a notice, telling the people directly that the country had just been destroyed and had no money. In order to help people get through the difficult times and not starve to death or freeze to death, the country had already handed over all its assets, and a lot of money and materials were borrowed. Instead of simply issuing a notice, the mayors, village heads, and civil affairs officials in various places were asked to publicize it to the people almost every day.
The second step is to implement the IOU system. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
The kingdom doesn't have that much gold in circulation. Fine! IOU!
Duke took three days to set up a complete IOU system.
Those who received disaster relief grain from the state in the winter had to write an IOU based on the quantity and quality.
Those who took the cotton-padded clothes also owed money.
Those who get new houses owe more.
This is all owed to the Kingdom.
Then when spring comes, it's time to repay the debt. When the busy farming season is over, they have to work for the country according to their abilities.
How much does it cost per day to build a railway?
How much does it cost to join the patrol?
After working for a while, the people found that, hey! Working for the country to pay off debts, they could get some extra IOUs every day, which they could exchange for necessary food and daily necessities.
The IOU made by Duke cannot be counterfeited because it is a magic item made by his magic apprentice. The cost of making IOU itself is far greater than the value of IOU itself.
The result was a complete internal circulation economic system controlled by a planned economy. After two months of operation starting in March, when Llane cautiously came to Duke to ask how much the country owed, Duke directly gave him a deficit of zero, oh no, a huge surplus. Llane and the interior ministers were stunned.
Llane was ready to sell land and state-owned assets to ensure that the people could live a good life. Anyway, most of the nobles had been exterminated, and their fiefs had fallen back into the hands of the Wrynn family, so they could still make a living by selling land.
Now Duke actually told him that not only did he not lose anything, but he also made a huge profit.
Llane didn't understand anything.
The Home Secretary doesn't understand either.
Duke shook his head and explained:
"Let me tell you! IOUs are actually gold coins. It's just that I took advantage of everyone's gratitude and secretly lowered the wages. Then I created a market environment where gold coins can't buy things, but IOUs can. This made everyone work a lot more for the kingdom without realizing it."
"Now it's free to feed the people and rebuild. But we still receive gold coins from the Alliance countries! That's the money to build Nethergarde. However, a very important logistical part of the initial investment is to build this railway across Elwynn Forest. I use this to revitalize the market economy of Stormwind Kingdom."
"In addition, due to the smooth transportation, the specialties from all over Stormwind Kingdom have also begun to be collected by the kingdom. The kingdom directly sells them to Kul Tiras's sea merchants and converts them into foreign exchange. Therefore, in the latest March and April, the kingdom has a monthly surplus of about 1.2 million gold coins."
After Duke finished his calculations, Llane and all the interior ministers knelt down.
Duke smiled and looked to the southeast. His sight seemed to pass through space and land on the Dark Gate thousands of miles away.
"Sorry, Horde. Our Alliance has been revived ahead of schedule. What about your tribes?"
The Horde Across the Dark Portal...
Very bad!
When Kilrogg Deadeye's Bleeding Hollow clan and Kargath Bladefist's Shattered Hand clan returned to Draenor late last year, they were faced with a world that was completely out of control.
the Horde lost its chief again and returned to the chaotic state of clan separatism.
The major clans were fighting each other for almost the entire winter.
