Chapter 35: Qingfeng Village Yangfan Port
Chapter 35 Qingfeng Village Yangfan Port
North of Eversong Forest, Qingfeng Village.
This village is an important transit point connecting the southeast and northwest of Eversong Forest. Over the years, it has become a prosperous gathering place after the key development of the upper layer of Quel'Thalas.
Although there is no town-level administrative division due to the population problem of the high elves, Qingfeng Village, with a permanent population of several thousand and a floating population of over 10,000, undoubtedly already has a town-level flow of people.
Qingfeng Village is located in the middle of a road extending in all directions. To the south is the southern forest village group centered on Taquilin, to the west is Sunsail Port, the largest port of the high elves, and to the east is the Eastern Temple and the base camp of the Farstriders. wide area.
As for the north, it is naturally the bustling and magnificent capital of the high elves - Silvermoon City.
At this time, the ranger troop led by Li Resa happened to come to Qingfeng Village for a short repair.
They have been in and out of Silvermoon City all the year round, and they are used to seeing the drunken and dreamy fellows in the city. It is rare to see such energetic elves. Even the residents living on the side of the road came out with their children to watch this book. The most active regular army in the country.
Charlemagne and others temporarily stationed outside the village felt a little uncomfortable with the monkey-like eyes of their compatriots. They lived in the sparsely populated southern part of Yongsong Forest all year round. Many of them encountered such a large number of people for the first time.
Old fried dough sticks Sclan and Yawen looked at the curious expressions of the rookies and shook their heads amusedly.
"Where is this going? Don't be surprised until you reach Silvermoon City, which has a population of more than 50,000. That is the brightest pearl of our Quel'dorei."
When a group of rangers surrounded the two old drivers asking questions, Charlemagne did not join them. He, who lived in a city with a population of tens of millions in his previous life, sneered at the poor population of the high elves.
'The total population is only in the early 100,000s, so what's so proud of... There is more than that in a small town in my Great Heavenly Dynasty. '
Of course, the fertility of elves is far from being comparable to that of humans, a short-lived race. The longer the life span and the stronger the vitality of the race, the more difficult it is to conceive offspring. The most typical one is the dragon race.
These large lizards can enter the epic stage without any suspense as long as they are adults, and it is almost no difficulty to break through to the demigod stage with a little talent.
But relatively, their fertility rate is also extremely tragic. Although these large lizards are very good at laying eggs, it is a pity that most of them are dead eggs, which cannot be hatched at all, and the children born will take a long time to grow up gradually.
With the free-ranging parenting style of the Dragon Clan, the chance of dying halfway is too high.
The same is true for the high elves' cousins, the night elves. Although due to the original night empire, their total population is much larger than that of the high elves in exile, but the ultra-low birth rate brought about by immortality has also plagued Thailand for many years. Rand.
Now their total population has not increased much compared to the end of the war ten thousand years ago, and even because some tribesmen are tired of eternal life and choose to kill themselves, there is a negative growth trend in population.
So there is still a reason why human beings can gradually become the mainstream of the world today, after all, they can give birth!
Of course wild boars are more productive than humans, but unfortunately this savage race is far behind humans in terms of brains and is not competitive.
Besides, there is no wild boar species in the Eastern Kingdom. Even Charlemagne suspects that there are not many people among the high elves who remember the native species of Kalimdor, the furbolg and the wild boar.
The first generation of high elves who followed Dath'Remar to the east passed away because of the end of their lifespan. Now the new generation of high elves, except some historians, would care about that humiliating history.
After all, being exiled by night elf civilians whom I look down upon is not something to be proud of. Under the deliberate downplay by the Sunstrider royal family and the Silvermoon Council, ordinary people don't even know that they are from the Kalimdor continent.
During the half-day repair in Qingfeng Village, Charlemagne, at the instigation of Yawen and Sclan, took a group of rangers to visit the most prosperous port of the high elves.
Sunsail Port, here is not only the military port of the high elves, but also the largest trading port, where you can see merchants of other races that are difficult to see normally.
Humans, dwarves, gnomes, and even... goblins, although the high elves have not completely opened up to the outside world, a small amount of caravan travel is still necessary in order to prevent the products they make from being unsalable.
Quel'Thalas' fine wine is very popular among humans. After all, the elf's fine wine, which is smooth and has little stamina, is very suitable for the needs of some nobles.
Of course the dwarves have always sneered at this. These dwarves who love to drink have always thought that wine must be strong to be interesting. This view can't help but remind Charlemagne of a certain fighting nation in his previous life...
In addition, all races are flocking to the high elves' enchanted equipment and jewelry, which is also the best-selling export.
It's a pity that the Sun King, out of self-preservation, mostly high-end enchanted products are only circulated in Quel'Thalas, and the products sold are all low-quality products.
Of course, there is an exception country - Dalaran.
Due to long-term exchanges and cooperation, and Prince Kael'thas also lives in Dalaran, the Sun King has specially relaxed the quality of goods flowing to Dalaran. Close one eye.
As long as you are not caught by the Silvermoon Council, then you are considered a successful smuggler. This kind of semi-official smuggling has always annoyed the members of the Silvermoon Council.
But the king felt sorry for his son to please Dalaran. As the instigator of the prince's exile, the council couldn't do everything right, so it just let nature take its course.
This has also led to the fact that in the human kingdom, if you want to buy high-quality elf-enchanted products, you can only go to Dalaran to buy them, which also promotes the development of Dalaran virtually.
Antonidas, the old and sophisticated chief archmage, is of course clear about this matter. In return, he granted Prince Kael'thas the status of a member of the six-member council, and at the same time allowed the prince to build his own mage in Dalaran. tower.
"Are these goblins and gnomes? They do look...weird."
It was also the first time for Cirvanas to see these two races. At this time, she was a little curious as she watched two goblins and dwarves, who were not much different in height, arguing about something with blushing faces and thick necks.
The checkpoint connecting the southern part of Eversong Forest to the Stratholme area often has a small number of caravans, so Miss Windrunner has seen humans and dwarves who came as blacksmiths. There is also a dwarf blacksmith in Taquilin.
But at this time, Charlemagne's expression was quite strange when he heard the content of the quarrel between the green dwarf and the dwarf in the common language.
These two dead dwarves... actually plan to test whose bomb is more powerful on the most important port of the high elves!
