VanCleef has been so busy lately that he has become the World of Azeroth version of a model who has stayed in the house three times.
He and his subordinate Artisans Guild were recruited by King Varian. They stopped all the work at hand and were all taken to the dock shipyard to build ships.
You said that I am a good construction craftsman, but why do I work part-time as a naval architect for no reason?
But fortunately, this official big order provides very generous gold coin rewards, so Artisans Guild doesn't mind working part-time. Anyway, it was just a brief training with the group of dwarf engineers, and then they entered the shipyard and started working.
VanCleef is a standard office worker. Every morning he struggles to get out of his comfortable bed, kisses the woman next to him, goes to the next room to see how his daughter Vanessa is sleeping, and then he walks out of the house in a hurry.
He lives in the old city of Stormwind City, which was the main urban area before the Orcs war and when Stormwind City was not expanded. More than 80% of the middle class live here.
Of course, the gold coins VanCleef earned were enough to buy a house in Noble District, but he still chose to continue living here because he felt that the old city was the essence and traditional style of Stormwind City, and besides, he was not too cold about those hypocritical nobles.
I walked out of my house, got on my old Mechanical Road Buster that I had driven for more than two years, started the crystal engine, and drove onto the crowded streets of the old city.
VanCleef doesn't like the X-52 home-use rocket that Goblins recently launched (see the special chapter for details). Even if there is an offer to redeem a motorcycle with extra money, he is not tempted at all.
First of all, it's because he always feels that Goblins's products are extremely unreliable. Despite the hype in the advertisements about how safe and durable they are, VanCleef firmly believes that those novelty gadgets are simply not as good as the thick motorcycles produced by a dwarf like himself.
The second point is that as a craftsman who works down-to-earth, VanCleef hates the feeling of flying in the sky with his feet off the ground, which makes him feel like he is not in control of the situation.
So let the group of adventurers and nobles use it as they like. I have a family and a lovely daughter, and I don't want anything to go wrong because of a mount.
Stormwind City The streets in the old city are blocked by a large number of buildings on the roadside, so they are completely stereotyped and cannot be expanded or rerouted. Therefore, the old city will be extremely congested during the rush hour.
VanCleef was stuck on the way to the Stormwind City dock. He did not rush the various mounts in front, but waited patiently. As the leader of the Artisans Guild, I naturally have the privilege of being late for a while.
Leaning on the motorcycle and reading the newspaper in his hand, VanCleef had many opinions of his own as he looked at all the big news that had happened recently.
The battle of the expedition Outland has come to an end. Stormwind Kingdom has made huge profits. Because the price of Fel Iron ore has plummeted, Artisans Guild is also a group that directly benefits. At least it is cheaper for them to purchase ore materials.
Lord Eternal Night Divine Emperor and the senior officials of the Alliance did a good job. They did not only consider the interests of the nobles. The civilians were the biggest beneficiaries in this war.
The substantial price reductions in the prices of various raw materials and household consumables, the emergence of various civilian technology products due to the war, and the continuous blood transfusions from the Outland world have all improved the quality of life of the people by several levels.
Even the coolies on the dock now have some spare money in their pockets. The vendors who once sold leftover food and wine from major hotels at the dock have disappeared, or have switched to selling fresh food.
After all, no one wants to eat other people's leftovers. Since you can afford yourself hot, freshly baked food, it doesn't matter if you spend a few more copper coins.
Then there was an article criticizing Lich King and Undead Scourge. In the article, the editor denounced all kinds of atrocities committed by Undead and the human tragedies they caused. I believe that no public will not feel angry and cursed when reading such an article.
However, VanCleef is not a fool. On the contrary, he is very thoughtful, or he has the thinking of a leader.
Recently, there have been more and more news about Lich King, and Alliance has begun to build ocean-going ships and warships on a large scale, which makes VanCleef smell a little different.
It seems that Northrend Continent will soon embark on the Northern Expedition. VanCleef roughly guessed the thoughts of the Alliance's top brass.
But this has nothing to do with him. As long as he is paid enough, Artisans Guild is very happy to contribute to the country.
After all, being patriotic also requires having enough to eat.
Driving the motorcycle, we moved forward slowly for a distance and were blocked again at the exit of the old city.
He shook the newspaper in his hand and continued reading.
The following is a piece of internal news about the Stormwind Kingdom, talking about the situation in the Westfall area.
A few days ago, that group of Syndicate bandits attacked another Westfall farm. Although there were no casualties, the farm's crops suffered heavy losses.
VanCleef hates those Syndicate bandits very much, and snorted when he saw this.
Those remnants of the Alterac Kingdom's nobles from the north are nothing but a scourge to mankind and rat shit. Stormwind Kingdom's many attempts to recruit them all ended in failure.
We need to send troops to eliminate them. They are hiding in the huge and complex mine deep in the abandoned Moonbrook Town.
Deadmines... This group of abominable Syndicate bandits really have no taste and gave their lair such a vulgar name.
VanCleef himself is also a professional. He has the strength of an elite thief. SI:7 once recruited himself, but out of his love for construction and craftsmanship, he did not become a professional thief.
Thinking of this, VanCleef's mind suddenly became active.
Since I hate those Syndicate bandits so much, and I have the strength of an elite thief and skilled craftsman skills, then...
Why not try to expand the business scope of the Artisans Guild?
For example, go to Westfall to help the People's Army there fight against Syndicate, and at the same time make Artisans Guild famous and get a batch of orders.
After all, it is often attacked by bandits, so there must be a lot of demand for construction and repairs.
Shaking his head, he had to discuss this idea with his old subordinates and his family before making any plans.
but... Defias Artisans Brotherhood, this is a good name.
After driving out of the old city, the road immediately became much wider, and the congested traffic suddenly became smoother.
When we arrived at the Stormwind City pier, it was already very lively and crowded.
Unloading of cargo, shipbuilding of ships.
At the passenger terminal next door, a large sea ship of the Night Empire that had just arrived at Stormwind City early this morning was docked quietly. Human and elf passengers were disembarking or boarding the ship with large and small bags.
Arriving at the military area, the crowds here were much thinner. A large number of engineers were coming and going. Four iron-clad warships under construction were parked in the dock not far away. A sharp-eyed eagle head was carved on the bow of the ship.
"Boss, here!"
Hearing the greeting from an old subordinate, VanCleef walked towards a workbench.
A new day's work has begun.
