Chapter 463 The Second Wine Festival

Profits will not be transformed out of thin air. When the dual-track system was implemented, the state sold materials to civilians and nobles at low prices. The state had to bear part of the losses in this transaction. In other words, the price dual-track system initially needed a sum of funds to lay the foundation, and then the market would run bit by bit before Lordaeron could obtain profits.

Who will pay for this money? Vanessa will definitely not pay for it. It is true that she has money, but it is difficult to explain if the money is lent to the country in her personal name.

Since the western wilderness, she has claimed that she is an honest person and her character cannot collapse. A regent who is rich enough to rival a country is likely to arouse people's disgust. It is best to have traces to follow, and not to spend a lot of money out of thin air.

What to do?

At the critical moment, her good friend Goblin stood up.

"Hehe, the Rust Water Consortium is willing to provide loans, haha, you can borrow as much as you want." Gary Vicks, the trade king of the Goblin Rust Water chaebol, personally rushed to Lordaeron to interview her.

This big chin and greedy goblin looked at Lordaeron with a firm foothold. Even if he started a battle with the Undead Legion, he would not be defeated. After measuring the benefits and risks, he immediately led the team to Lordaeron.

Vanessa didn't mind this. The other party's choice was quite clever. Before the dual-track system, Lordaeron didn't need to borrow money. After a few months of implementation, he didn't need to borrow money. At this time, he was short of money.

"How much interest?" she asked.

“Same as hot sand.”

Vanessa refused: "Impossible."

Can the timely help and the icing on the cake be the same?

They started a long negotiation on the loan figure and interest, as well as the collateral.

In the end, it was difficult to reach an agreement. The Rust Water Consortium borrowed 400,000 gold coins to Lordaeron and paid it off in fifteen years. The interest rate was 10% less than that of the Hot Sand Consortium. These 400,000 gold coins cannot be discounted. If you borrow 360,000 gold coins as 400,000 gold coins, that won’t work!

However, Vanessa also made a promise that she would use this money to buy supplies of 100,000 gold coins from the Rust Water Consortium. If the price is the same in the subsequent transaction, then she would give priority to the goblin supplies. The Rust Water Consortium's priority is half a level lower than that of the Hot Sand Consortium.

Lordaeron's collateral is three ports, five iron ore and two gold mines.

The trade king Gary Vicks is very rich, but he did not pay out of his own pocket. Instead, he mobilized the group's money to do business with Vanessa. If he made a profit, he would belong to the group's own. If he lost, he would belong to the group!

The two economic entities that ultimately signed the agreement were Lordaeron and Rust Water Consortium, which had nothing to do with Vanessa and Gary Vicks.

Even if the Rust Water Consortium has a big family and a big business, it will take time to mobilize 400,000 gold coins. Vanessa has gradually relaxed its control over commodity prices and transformed the country from a planned model to a market model bit by bit.

In mid-September, Jalia's artifact, the Wrath of the Holy Light, was officially manufactured. The Prophet's Gift that he had received from Kiljadan was also added to the staff. As soon as the staff was formed, it emitted an extremely dazzling golden holy light. Lula even added some power to the staff. Jalia, who held the artifact staff, finally had the style of a king of a country.

The appearance of the tomb of Tyr attracted the attention of all countries. King Gerne Greymann, who had been staying at home, rarely left Gernez and made a solemn sacrifice to the tomb of Tyr.

Kings of Varian, Boval and Prince Anduin from the Storm Kingdom also worshiped each other.

After the worship, Prince Anduin made a request, and he wanted to learn the way of the Holy Light from Galia.

"Forgiveness and benevolence should be the way of the monarch. The warrior's path is not suitable for me. The Paladins also emphasize combat too much. We need peace, not only peace between countries, but also peace between alliances and tribes."

The little lion is two years older than that, twelve years old this year, and his body has grown taller. His voice has just experienced the voice change period, but it can be seen that he has already made certain plans for the future.

Don't treat others as fools. You will understand many things by reading more books. The battle between the alliance and the tribe, the future master-slave position of Lordaeron and the Storm Kingdom in the alliance, and even the dispute between the royal power and ministerial power of the Storm Kingdom. Many things can still be seen as long as you want to see.

To reconcile the contradictions, Prince Anduin wanted to serve as a bridge connecting Lordaeron and the Storm Kingdom, and to use his relationship with Galia to resolve the possible conflicts between the two countries. He believed that the Pastor's Way was the most suitable for him.

Vanessa had a very happy expression: "Haha, okay, very good, I personally support it."

Boval also expressed his appreciation: "This is a good idea, and I personally support it."

Only King Varian and Jaliya themselves didn't think so much. King Varian felt that his son was a little regretful that he hadn't become a soldier. Although he was not interested in the government, it was okay to teach his son with martial arts. Does his son dislike him now? Jaliya was confused. How much does he have, but he still didn't know? Can he teach him well?

Regardless of what they thought, Anduin wanted to learn, Vanessa and Bervar also expressed support, and this matter was decided.

In order to celebrate the still intimate relationship between the two countries, and to welcome King Varian who came from afar, Vanessa and a group of nobles held the second Wine Festival in Lordaeron.

This time the scale is larger, the number of participants is more popular, and the prizes are even more luxurious. Even the Sheep in the Winter Wine Festival has been upgraded to the Tub Sheep in the Winter Wine Festival!

King Wa was a little enthusiastic about this kind of activity. He had not returned to China when the first wine festival was held last year. At this time, he watched a group of people compete for drinking, eating meat and racing sheep, so he went over to help with it with excitement, and then rode the goat three laps himself.

Since King Va attended, as a reciprocal national leader, Galia also had to attend, but she was very uncomfortable with this noisy environment.

"Sister Jalia, drink it quickly! Don't hesitate, it's dry in one sip!" Seeing that she couldn't let go, Vanessa put a large glass of dwarf ale on the table and signaled her to drink!

"So many of these?"

"Drink quickly, drink quickly!"

"Jalia, drink quickly! Everyone is watching you." Vanessa and Jaina were not bothering to watch the fun, and they both started to cheer.

Jalia had to put down the court etiquette, tilted her neck and drank a whole cup.

"Good wine! Another glass of Dalaran red wine!"

"Yo? You can drink it, let's have another glass of Rockmodan beer!"

Vanessa and Jaina hid on the side and laughed secretly. Jalia soon drank her face and her eyes were blurred.

Strong! The Azerothians have really strong physiques.
