The meeting was still going on. After understanding the details of the Battle of Torvasa, the senior officials of Silvermoon City began to discuss a practical issue.

How to resettle the people rescued by Michaela.

Don’t underestimate these more than 100 people. After experiencing the massacre of Silvermoon City in the Natural Disaster War, the total population of blood elves today is only over 10,000. These more than 100 people are equivalent to one percent of the population, no.

Decimals!

Regarding this, Michaela is also prepared: "This group of people are currently undergoing examination and treatment in the hospital on the Elder Trail. After this period of construction in Silvery Moon City, many new residential areas have been built and there is enough space for resettlement.

them."

Ah Qiang did not forget to add: "Don't forget the new residential area in the south of Huayuan Market that is under construction."

Michaela also nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, there is another place."

The "new residential area south of Garden Market" that Aqiang mentioned was the project that Humphrey was overseeing when Michaela went to Torvasa.

In addition, here is a supplementary explanation about the living situation in Silvermoon City. When they first regained the city, because there was destruction left by the undead everywhere, the blood elves could only clear out an available house as a temporary dormitory.

Including Regent Aqiang, Ranger General Halduron Brightwing, Archmage Rommath and Ms. Liadrin, they were also living in the dormitory at the time. Mikaela was lucky that the Warlock Guild building was not damaged, so he was able to return

Go to your room.

As time goes by, Silver Moon City is gradually repaired, and many people have moved out of the temporary dormitories and moved into the newly built residential areas. High-level figures like the Regent Aqiang will definitely not continue to be crowded in the dormitories.

Of course, this does not mean that Aqiang will use power for personal gain. In fact, as a blood elf who has witnessed the old Silver Moon City government, Aqiang does not like the extravagant style of the past, so he decided to set an example and would not build for himself.

Instead of a luxurious mansion, he found a fairly large room in his office, the Tower of the Sun, as a resting place.

From this point of view, Aqiang is indeed an excellent leader, and because he leads by example, other high-level officials in Silvermoon City also follow suit, such as Ranger General Halduron Brightwing and Archmage Rommath, who also follow Aqiang's example.

Qiang, found a room in the Sun Chaser Tower.

As for Liadrin, before she became a Blood Knight, she also lived in the Tower of the Sun, but after the establishment of the Blood Knight Guild, as the Blood Knight Lord, Liadrin moved to the Blood Hall.

Back to business.

With the resettlement problem of residents solved, the next topic is to rebuild Silveryue City's industries and restore the economy. You must know that the reconstruction funds of Silveryue City now rely entirely on capital gains, because the industry has not yet recovered, and the government has no way to collect it.

Tax, obviously this is not a long-term solution, and one day the capital will be eaten up.

"Our alchemy workshop, forging workshop, leatherworking workshop, inscription workshop, tailoring workshop, engineering workshop, and enchanting workshop are all about to be completed. And the corresponding medicine mining, mining and skinning industries have already been carried out.

Work."

Just listen to Michaela change the subject: "But we have a real problem."

Without Michaela's reminder at all, everyone present frowned and uttered one word:

"population!"

In economics, the number of people is equivalent to the market size. Today's blood elf population is less than one-tenth of what it used to be, which means that the market size has shrunk tenfold!

And this arithmetic problem is not finished yet.

Before the Scourge War, there was a powerful human kingdom of Lordaeron south of Quel'Thalas, the kingdom of blood elves. At that time, the blood elves relied on their superb enchanting technology blessed by racial talents, making their enchanted products popular throughout Lordaeron.

Lun, and can also use Lordaeron as a springboard to sell goods to other human countries. Even in the Ironforge of the dwarves, you can see enchanted goods from the blood elves.

Therefore, the blood elves' foreign trade business at that time was always in excess, the economy was quite good, and they were very wealthy. No wonder the extravagant style of the old Silvermoon City government was prevalent.

But now, the human kingdom of Lordaeron has been pierced by the sword of the filial son Arthas, and it has completely stopped. As a result, the foreign trade of the blood elves has also ended...

If you think about it, if a country's domestic market shrinks to one-tenth and foreign trade is completely cut off, it will be very difficult for the economy to improve.

What?

In novels are heroes leading the people?

Brother, you also know it’s a novel!

Remember, in reality, the most critical thing for a country is its economy. If you have money, you can do anything, but if you don’t have money, you can’t do anything!

Moreover, because the blood elf market has shrunk, the industry has shrunk, and the shrinking industry has led to a decrease in the employment rate, forming a vicious cycle.

It’s not obvious yet because the reconstruction work of Silvermoon City is not over yet and a large amount of labor is still needed. But the reconstruction work will eventually end. By that time, if Silvermoon City’s industry cannot be revived, what do you think of the blood elves?

How many days can it last?

Economic collapse is no joke!

So is there any solution to this problem?

In fact, there is.

Since the domestic market cannot improve due to demographic problems, we can only rely on foreign trade. If the human kingdom is gone, we will look for other countries. As long as our technology is good and our products are good enough, we will not be afraid of losing sales.

From a geographical perspective, the nearest foreign trade target was originally the Amani trolls. Unfortunately, the blood elves and trolls are mortal enemies. Mikaela's ability to sign an armistice agreement is already the limit, and it is impossible to open trade!

At the beginning, the ancestors of the blood elves wanted to solve the troll problem forever, but as a result, the nearest foreign trade channels were completely cut off. It is now the blood elves' turn to taste this bitter fruit.

So being kind to your neighbors is the right way!

Of course, Michaela, who is familiar with the plot of Warcraft, knows that the blood elves will eventually join the tribe, but that time has not yet come because the matter at hand has not been resolved yet!

Just listen to Aqiang say: "If you want to solve economic problems, the key lies in foreign trade."

Archmage Romans then said: "If we want to conduct foreign trade, we must go out and contact other kingdoms."

Ranger General Halduron Brightwing continued: "But if you want to get out, you must solve a real problem!"

After that, a map was placed on the round table in the conference room.

Michaela took a closer look and saw that it was indeed the area located in the southern part of Yongsong Forest, the map of the Land of Ghosts!

Ranger General Halduron-Brightwing stretched out his right index finger and pointed it at the southwest of the Land of Ghosts. Everyone knew that the location pointed by his finger was the undead fortress of Desholm of the Scourge!

When the traitor Dar'Kan unlocked the magic barrier and welcomed Arthas and the Scourge into Quel'Thalas, the undead fortress of Dysholm was established at that time.

Everyone knows the story that followed. Using Dysholme as his base, Arthas led the natural disaster army all the way north, penetrated Silvermoon City, and reached the Sunwell.

It must be admitted that Alsace is very good at choosing the location of the fortress, because on the east side of Dysholme is the only road from Quel'Thalas to the outside world, where the Thalass Trail is located. In other words, as long as Dysholme

If Mu only exists for one day, he will be able to block the chokepoint leading to the outside world. The blood elves will never be able to get out, and they will only be trapped in their own country!

The undead commander guarding Dysholme is the traitor Darkan Drasil. Of course, now Darkan has long abandoned his life and identity as a blood elf and became a member of the undead, forever serving him.

Host service.

For a while, the meeting fell into silence.

It was not until half a minute later that Michaela took the lead to speak up: "General Halduron Brightwing, what is the current situation of the troops we sent to the Ghost Land?"

In fact, with the current situation of the blood elves, they are unable to launch an attack on Desom, but everyone present knows that they have no choice. If they don't fight, they will die. Only by fighting can there be a glimmer of hope.

As the current Ranger General, Halduron Brightwing is in charge of all military matters. He also replied:

"The army has arrived at Taquilin in the north-central part of the Ghost Land. According to the plan, we will first clean up the surrounding undead, try to completely recover the entire northern part of the Ghost Land, and then slowly advance southward to attack Dysom."

Slow and steady is slow, but very effective.

Michaela also nodded and said: "I hope we can succeed."

Halduron-Mingyi smiled bitterly and said, "I'd like to lend you some good words."

Different from the previous battle to regain Silver Moon City, Desomuli's troops are the main force of the undead and are not that easy to deal with. It must be a tough battle.

Therefore, Michaela was also thinking, should she also find an opportunity to go to the Ghost Land to help?

No, no.

Michaela immediately thought of her sister Marlenia, at least not yet. I had to settle her down before I could leave with peace of mind.

At the end of the meeting, Michaela returned to the office and reviewed some documents, all of which were the finishing work of various industrial workshops. I believe that it will not be long before these workshops will be put into use.

"By the way, minister."

At this moment, Bernard suddenly said: "Your next trip is to go to the hospital to visit the compatriots who were rescued by you."

At first, Michaela was said to be a little confused, because in his memory, it seemed that there was no original schedule to go to the hospital. But then he thought about it, even if there was no schedule, he would still go to the hospital after get off work, because Marlene Nia is still there.

"Well done, Bernard."

Michaela put down the reviewed documents and said, "I also happen to be going to the hospital to visit my sister."

"Of course, minister, it's my job to arrange your schedule." Bernard's face showed a smile of a little angel, and Michaela also felt that this private secretary understood people's hearts, which was indeed good.

"Please, minister."

"Okay, lead the way, Bernard."

However, when Michaela walked out of the office, she did not notice that Humphrey, who was walking with him, secretly nodded to Bernard.

Because it was Humphrey's plan to fill up Michaela's schedule. He wanted to make Michaela have no time to think about other issues!

In this way, Minister of Administrative Affairs Michaela, supported by his subordinates, arrived at the door of the hospital. Doctor Eretus, who had already received the news, and other staff of the ruins hospital had been waiting at the door for a long time.

.

"Welcome, Minister Michaela."

Eretus enthusiastically stretched out his right hand and held Michaela's right hand tightly together, and continued:

"Without your timely action, those compatriots captured by the trolls would have been doomed."

"It's my duty."

Michaela smiled and put on the aura of a minister. He did this, of course, because the reporter from "The Sun" was nearby, and he wanted to perform well and try to make headlines again.

Of course, in a positive way.
Chapter completed!
