Illucia came to Aaron this time well prepared. Different from the suggestions he made when he first came to Covenant City, the suggestions made by Illucia this time were more practical. The work of Covenant City's administrative officer in the past few months was not in vain.
The first thing Illucia introduced was about the specific construction of Covenant City. VanCleef introduced this aspect to Aaron, but what Illucia said was different.
VanCleef just introduced the purpose of each building on his drawings to Aaron, letting Aaron know what the uses of these things are. Other than that, VanCleef didn't say anything else.
Illucia mainly focused on introducing the connections between these buildings and the significance of such planning. Although Aaron was not very interested in these, he still listened carefully. After all, Illucia will only serve as a political officer in Covenant City for ten years. This territory is still Aaron's own after all. If he cannot control these conditions, even Aaron himself will feel ashamed.
However, because these plans were based on Illucia's previous plans, the time taken was not very long. Soon Illucia ended this part and began to put forward his own suggestions and plans for the future development of Covenant City.
"Covenant City The biggest problem is insufficient production. Although the trading company under your name is developing very well, the development of a city cannot only rely on one industry. This is too risky," Illucia said seriously, "So we need to develop new potential in this city."
Aaron couldn't help but reveal a wry smile after hearing this. He also knew very well that if Covenant City relied solely on Ya-Mei Trading Company to develop, there would be many troubles. This can be seen in reference to the famous "Rust Belt" area in Aaron's hometown. A city that relies on an industry to develop is as brilliant as it is at its peak, and how embarrassing it will be when this industry declines.
However, Covenant City are there any new industries that can be explored now? Aaron After a cursory thought, I feel that there is no hope. The terrain of this land that originally belonged to Troll is not very good. Planting various food crops here can only meet the needs of the people in the city. It is more difficult to obtain wealth through this.
There are no minerals underground in Covenant City. At least Amani Trolls, which has settled here for tens of thousands of years, has no relevant discoveries. As for developing the timber industry by taking advantage of the geographical location close to Eversong Woods, it is even less reliable. Although Covenant City An area near has also been classified under the jurisdiction of Covenant City, but there are not many trees in this area. The trees outside the territory belong to Quel'Thalas and have nothing to do with Aaron.
Covenant City's remaining geographical advantage is a port. When Stonemasons' Guild's work is completed, the port's capacity will inevitably increase greatly. Unfortunately, Covenant City's land transportation conditions are not very good, and the port is not a trade hub. Traveling to and from Covenant City Most of the ships in the port are here to buy Ya-Mei Trading Company products, and the rest are ships that transport grain to Covenant City. In addition, there are Sunsail Anchorages with better conditions nearby, so they really do not have the conditions to develop maritime transportation.
"Can we develop any tourism industry?" Aaron said helplessly.
"Don't you think those rich people would come to Covenant City without visiting the famous Silvermoon City?" Illucia looked at Aaron with a strange expression, "Before talking about this, there is another question I think needs to be said.
What Aaron didn't expect was that Illucia didn't continue talking about this topic, but talked about those Orcs issues. "Lord, I think Stonemasons' Guild After taking over the construction lag of Covenant City, leaving those Orcs simply in Covenant City is just a waste of food." Before, Illucia thought it could make Orcs does some less detailed work. Anyway, there is no need to pay for using these prisoners of war. Just enough food and shelter from wind and rain are enough. But after seeing the work efficiency of the Stonemasons' Guild, Illucia changed his mind, and began to feel that these Orcs were a bit redundant, especially since these Orcs now lacked motivation to work, and when it came to eating, one was more than the other.
"Then let's send these Orcs back to His Majesty Terenas," Aaron asked tentatively. He vaguely felt that Illucia was not just complaining when he mentioned Orcs at this time, but he was not sure what the other party wanted to say.
"Lord, let me tell you straight. We can take these Orcs to the north to harvest trees. By the way, the news I got that there is a lot of wood in the north should not be false." Illucia gestured Northrend on the map. position, "In addition to making full use of the labor force of these Orcs, sending these Orcs to Northrend can also prevent certain things that are not conducive to Covenant City and you, the lord, from deteriorating."
"It's not good for me." Aaron scratched his head, not knowing what Illucia was talking about.
Illucia sighed, "Lord, your tolerant attitude towards Orcs seems to me to be a sign of your kindness, but in the eyes of those who don't know the details, Covenant City's attitude towards Orcs is simply a Betrayal, this situation is not obvious yet, but I have heard some discussions about this matter. If this continues, if someone adds fuel to the flames, I am afraid it will be very detrimental to you. It is not impossible to take Covenant City into the Alliance and hand it over to others."
"Is it so bad?" Aaron didn't realize that just getting a batch of Orcs from the prisoner of war camp to help him build a city would have such consequences, "Then let's get Orcs Go to Northrend. Anyway, it's just to install more people. I hope Kul Tiras people won't be unwilling to carry these Orcs because of what happened in Second War."
"Is there anyone else you want to take with you when you return to Northrend this time?" Illucia asked curiously. Aaron only brought back Vereesa when he came back this time. But from what he said, it seems that there are others who want to go to Northrend with him.
"Yes, I left before." Before Aaron finished speaking, he saw the communicator placed in the corner of the room suddenly light up, and then he saw a humanoid shadow appear from the communicator, it was Ironaya.
This was the time that Aaron and Ironaya had agreed to notify each day of their itinerary. Aaron was worried that Ironaya would go the wrong way.
The female giant's shadow circled in the room, looked at Aaron and said, "Aaron, we are almost at Elf Gate."
"You have almost arrived at Elf Gate." Aaron was a little surprised. Ironaya's marching speed did not exceed Aaron's expectations. Now he has arrived at Elf Gate The speed around is considered normal. Aaron What is strange is how Ironaya knows the name of the place. It seems that the female giant asked the locals for directions, and promised, "I will pick you up immediately to avoid any trouble."
