Ah! My dear Onyxia, although I would like to play dragon taming with you when I have time, I cannot disobey the king's orders!
Have a safe journey, dear …
Duque heartlessly waved goodbye, which made Onyxia break down.
She asked directly through the soul connection. That tearful voice would break even the most cold-hearted person's heart.
"Master — my dear master! Are you really so heartless? After I became your mount, I have never rebelled. I have always done my best to complete the tasks you give me. For so long, even if I don't have any merits, I have worked hard! Are you really willing to let me go to that damned place with no gold, no treasure, and nothing but broken stones and endless demons? Am I just a thug and a plaything that you can throw away when you are tired of playing with me? "
As Onyxia struggled, she revealed the Dragon's Valley, intentionally or unintentionally.
Duque swallowed his saliva and said slowly through the soul connection, "When you come back, you will see a dragon bed made of pure gold in Karazhan, specially made for you to sleep on."
When Onyxia heard this, her eyes suddenly turned into two shiny gold coins. "Really? You are not lying to me? I don't want a human-sized toy. I want one that I can sleep on in my dragon form. "
"This is your master's promise," Duque said heroically.
Onyxia bit her red lips. "Alright, if you really do it, after I come back, I am willing to add one more item to the dragon taming list. You can decide the specifics."
"It's a deal."
"Deal."
Alexstrasza naturally had no way of knowing the soul communication between this master and servant, nor did she know what kind of dirty deal they had reached. She only knew that this evil little female dragon, who had no interest in guarding the Dragon Sleep Temple, suddenly glowed, gave up struggling, and was willing to work for her.
Well, no matter what, this was a good thing.
She glanced at Duque, and Duque gave her an OK gesture.
Blinking, the Red Dragon Queen was still a little worried. "You didn't pay a terrible price, did you?"
"No, no, no. Onyxia is my most loyal mount. A little reward is only right. Besides, it won't hinder me in any way. "
"That's good."
Alexstrasza would never know how shameless a transmigrator could be.
Golden Dragon Bed?
Duque wouldn't go out of his way to do something so valiant and arrogant.
But Duque was going to open a bank!
That's right!
After Duque had devoted himself to farming for 22 years, the resources of the Alliance had reached an extremely abundant level. As a result, there were more and more economic problems, the biggest of which was currency transactions.
In the past, even before the formation of the Alliance, every country used the Arasuo Gold Coin as a unified currency.
Gold characters were very expensive. Everyone agreed that they were very valuable.
It seemed to be all right.
In the past, buying a top-notch warhorse would only cost a few gold coins.
Now that the Alliance was playing with high technology, when large-scale military products like steam tanks came out, the cost could easily be thousands of gold coins, or even tens of thousands or millions of gold coins. With such a shocking cost, using gold coins to trade was simply asking for death.
The Alliance had already begun to use gold notes to replace gold coins, but the merchants didn't approve of it.
Duque had already decided to issue paper money.
To give paper money value, apart from the best security measures, there had to be enough collateral. As a transmigrator, the easiest thing to think of was a "gold standard" with gold as the core. In the early American economic system before transmigration, paper money could be issued with as much gold as there was gold.
Therefore, the key to issuing paper money was that there had to be enough gold in the Alliance.
This gold couldn't be touched.
Before Onyxia returned, Duque would specially send people to guard it.
When she returned, so what if it became a bed for her to sleep on? He could even say that the Alliance had specially found a demigod dragon to guard the gold.
Duque wasn't worried at all that Onyxia would be corrupted.
Giant Dragons all had serious hoarding habits. They would hide all the valuable treasures in their lair and not give them to anyone. Otherwise, why would so many brave warriors slay dragons since ancient times?
It was very simple. To get rich!
The gold bars were all collateral anyway, and Duque wouldn't take them out for cash. It didn't matter at all.
Moreover, from the beginning to the end, Duke had never once said "I will give you all the gold"!
As for the security and exchange of paper money, that was even simpler.
As a demigod of the Weave, Duque himself had the most profound magic in the world. He could design a barcode on the paper money. As long as a simple money detector was placed in a place where the Weave could reach, it would immediately be able to identify the authenticity of any paper money.
If anyone dared to counterfeit it, the Weave would immediately send them back.
Duque definitely wouldn't mind his Elemental Emissaries suddenly jumping out from the Weave to teach those counterfeiters a lesson.
In Duque's mind, as long as he had enough Elemental Emissaries, he would definitely be able to deal with these situations.
Yes! His plan worked!
After sending off the four Dragon Aspects, Tyrande walked over and whispered, "Goddess Elune asked me to tell you that when you're done, you can go to the Moon Goddess Shrine as a guest. But this matter isn't urgent. "
"Yes."
The gods' business was with the gods, and the mortals' business was with the mortals.
After sending off those high-ranking guys, Thrall could finally come over. He brought Wojin, Magni, and William over.
"Are you satisfied with the loot this time?" Duque asked Thrall with a smile.
Saar grinned, revealing his long fangs. "Phew, phew, I finally don't have to listen to those guys complaining about how the Alliance heroes have better equipment than the Horde heroes." A heaven-defying victory, coupled with the generous spoils of war, could resolve many conflicts without a trace.
Even the Sun King Anastrian, who had lost the most manpower, now had the [Dark Storm Gauntlets], the [Cloak of Clarity], and the [Ancient God's Embrace] on his waist. These pieces of equipment produced by C 'Thun that the powerhouses of the Alliance looked down upon were now nothing to him.
The Sun King wouldn't show any dissatisfaction with Thrall at this time.
Magni said, "When you were busy just now, Thrall and Wojin proposed to us that they hoped the Horde and the Alliance would sign a closer cooperation agreement. If possible, it would be better to sign it in the form of an alliance."
After Magni finished speaking, Thrall and Wojin's uneasy expressions said everything.
At this time, the strength of the Alliance and the Horde was not equal. To some extent, this was an alliance request that was not based on strength, but purely based on feelings.
A majestic lion would never try to make an antelope its ally.
No leader in their right mind would have agreed to it under such circumstances.
Unexpectedly, Duke nodded: "It's not a big problem. As for the specific details, let the people below discuss it."
