Chapter 736 The Backhand of the Steam Sand Consortium
History proves that once the tribe has oil and the help of goblins who can use the oil, their technological strength will improve by leaps and bounds.
The Iron Horde is a clear evidence. This group of barbarians who were still beating people with stones and sticks completed the change of clothes in a very short period of time.
Not only sniper rifles, repeating rifles, and grenades have become the normal configuration of infantry, but other black technology products such as machine guns, machine guns, and even steel stars, aircraft carriers, tanks, and airplanes have also appeared one by one.
Under the operation of the traverser Garrosh, the orcs quickly completed the process of transforming the primitive clan into a modern army. This speed is simply unbelievable.
Once the Steamwheedle Consortium officially joins the oath, Gazlowe of Ratchet City has a high chance of leaving the Steamwheedle Consortium.
This person is a different kind among goblins. Compared with other goblins who are addicted to money, he will use his contacts to make some temporary concessions to a limited extent. Ill is quite trusting and optimistic about him.
Given the personal friendship between Gazlowe and Goel, after leaving the Steam Sand Consortium, there is a high chance that he will lean towards the tribe, or even join directly.
Although Garrosh likes to be reckless, he has never treated anyone who can help his hegemony. It was precisely because of this that Hession was able to rise to power in history.
If Gazlowe joins the tribe, then this shrewd and humane goblin will definitely benefit himself and the new tribe established by Goel.
Once he discovers the oil that the Steamwheedle Consortium has flowed into the market... Needless to say what will happen then.
This is just Gazlowe alone. When oil enters the market, the most sensitive to it are naturally the major goblin consortiums that have long known its usefulness, including venture capital companies, Black Cable, and the Xiushui Zaibatsu.
These goblins, who have no clear position and run purely for profit, will cause turmoil in the international market because of the scramble for oil... Who can say clearly, radical venture capital companies may even take the initiative to provoke fights to **** oil fields.
This is the disadvantage of joining the Steamwheedle Consortium, but at the same time their joining will also bring some benefits to the oath.
First of all, it is the promotion of Charlemagne's future plans. These green-skinned dwarves who can make full use of oil and have no worse brains than dwarfs are really skilled.
Although there is still a certain distance from the extraterrestrial cosmic race Draenei because of their vision, but with their wisdom inspired by the Kaya ore, it is not impossible to learn the technology from Argus from the Draenei. It just takes a certain amount of time.
At the same time, they use goblin capital to operate their minds, vowing that the assets of various countries are likely to grow rapidly under the guidance of their financial advisors, which will also be of great help to Charlemagne's future plans.
Tyrande thought for a while, rubbed his temples and sighed, "There are pros and cons... It's really hard to decide for a while."
Charlemagne also shook his head with a wry smile, "Forget it, since it's difficult to decide, let's wait until the General Assembly and let the countries vote to decide."
Risson used to be the chief executive of the dukedom, and he would inevitably have certain business contacts with races like goblins. At this time, he solemnly reminded Charlemagne.
"Your Highness, regardless of whether the Steamwheedle Consortium is allowed to join or not, the oath must be vigilant against this group of unscrupulous goblins. To the goblins, the immediate benefits are the most important, and promises can be torn at will. .”
Lison's eyes flashed a cold light, "These goblins of the Steam Sand Consortium who know the Lakali Oil Marsh must be removed, otherwise they may give a small part of their profits to inform the other three major consortiums to besiege us."
Charlemagne nodded, "Well, I didn't intend to make it easy for them. If Garridabz hadn't suddenly said that he would join the oath, I wouldn't have given them this breathing time... Wait."
Touching his chin, Charlemagne frowned and said, "Is there such a possibility? The Steamwheedle Consortium has also made two-handed preparations. If it can successfully join the oath, it's okay. If it fails...the half month is just for them to contact the other three. Opportunities for big consortiums.”
"Once the news of the failure comes out, they can immediately notify Hesso, Rustwater and venture capital companies to start a battle with us, or even..."
The old fritter Tyrande naturally also thought of this possibility, she added with a gloomy face, "It might even be possible for Gazlowe to inform the tribe of the true value of the oil."
The room suddenly became quiet, and after a while Charlemagne clapped his hands, and within a few seconds, a bearded night elf walked in from the outside. It was the elder member of the Hidden Path, Brand Eternal oath.
"Brand, get in touch with Emeril immediately. I want to know what the Steamwheedle Consortium has done in the past ten days, and whether there are any suspicious actions."
"yes!"
Brand knew that something was unusual when he saw the serious faces of Charlemagne and Tyrande, and immediately turned around and strode away after receiving the order.
"Why…"
Charlemagne was lying on his office chair with a headache, and Onyxia immediately walked over to help him massage his temples.
"I originally thought that after the end of the Northern Expedition, I would be able to relax a bit, but in the end, there were still a lot of troubles..."
Onyxia tilted her head and thought for a while, then said, "Master, based on what I know about goblins, you and Tyrande's concerns are not impossible. Goblins, a race that is sometimes timid and daring, will be the first to act in times of crisis. A lot of preparations."
Charlemagne waved his hand irritably and said, "Forget it, let's not mention them for now, the truth will be revealed when the information from Emeril arrives, besides, there is nothing wrong with finding a way out for yourself, I just hope they can recognize their own Situation."
Because the three wives were absent, Charlemagne, accompanied by Onyxia, left the Regent's Palace in the afternoon and wandered around.
The Silvermoon Council is still busy dealing with domestic government affairs as usual, and nothing new will happen in just half a month. There are also different opinions within the Council on whether the goblins will join or not. There are 4 people who oppose and agree. than 2.
Mimiron is still soaking in the Royal Great Library and Research Institute. According to him, he has gained a lot. The technological progress of mortals has far exceeded his imagination, and some technologies can even bring him some inspiration.
The alien technology brought by Draenei excited him even more. Recently, he was eagerly absorbing knowledge from Romuel. The terrifying learning speed of the King of Invention made Romuel feel like seeing a ghost.
Charlemagne most hoped that the space navigation technology that Mimiron would learn has also been gradually absorbed by him, but the spaceship passed down from the Naaru idea by the Draenei is not to his liking, in his words...
"What's the use of this kind of coffin board that doesn't even have weapons of mass destruction? Caliber is justice!"
