Game of Thrones: Battle Royale Game

"Wait a minute!"

"What is the main textile material of Slaver's Bay?" Hominas asked rhetorically.

"Wool?" Xaro blurted out, and then realized, "So, after defeating the Horse King, Ian Darry will conquer the Raza region and obtain a huge wool production area, so his finance minister will plan the textile industry in advance. .Eh, wait, but this still doesn’t explain what the textile industry has to do with fire?”

"Where does the wool come from?" Hominas continued.

"On the sheep."

"What do the Lazarins use to herd their sheep?"

"dog?"

“What did man use to conquer dogs and other animals in the first place?”

"ah?"

"It's fire. Humans have mastered the power of fire and have become the masters of other animals. Therefore, the Supreme Shepherd believed by the Lazarin people is essentially an incarnation of R'hllor." Hominas spread his hands, "The Lazarin people's most traditional textile industry, of course R'hllor also has advanced technology."

Xaro:? ? ?

After being stunned for a full three seconds, Xaro said: "What is this thing of yours supposed to be?" He thought for a long time, and finally said this word in Valyrian that was not in Qarth. "Are you being sophistical?"

"Whether it's sophistry or not, as long as the Lazarins believe it, in short, Celia described a very objective prospect to me. With the previous porcelain as evidence, I believed her words and offered her a sum of up to A loan of 100,000 gold coins.

This is a sure-profit deal. You should know what I mean. With these technologies, even if they lose the war against the Horse King, they only need to use the fleet to take away the craftsmen, and Braavos will accept them. , let them set up factories in Braavos. "

"Looking at your expression, your next word is probably 'but'?"

"But," Hominas said as expected, "I soon discovered that Celia invested all the money she borrowed from me into the metallurgical blast furnace and equipment forging workshop, and even used part of the money to For military spending.”

"Hahaha." Zaro couldn't help laughing.

"I was very angry at the time, so I took the initiative to find her and question her behavior. However, she told me that she only used the money where it was most important. If they lost the war, I would not only earn every penny of interest. If not, you won’t even be able to get your principal back.”

"A naked threat. Even you, if you lose an order of 100,000 Jinhui coins, you will be held accountable by the Iron Bank."

"Yeah, at that moment, I suddenly realized that I seemed to be tied to the boat by them."

"Then you shouldn't continue to invest more money! Losing 100,000 golden coins may make you lose your job, but a loss of 500,000 golden coins will make the keykeepers of the Iron Bank want your life."

"No, the second time I provided her with a loan was not because of threats, but because she provided me with a plan that would allow me to protect my capital and even make a lot of money. She pledged the cooperation and drawings of Astapor's various processes to me. , asking me to lend her another 100,000 gold coins. The condition is that if they win the war against the Horse King, I will return these craft materials. If they lose, then with these things, I can also borrow them from the Iron Bank. Cross over.”

"So, you have it now." Zaro's eyes suddenly became hot.

"Don't think about those things. Since she dared to give them to me in advance, she is not afraid of me stealing them." Hominas waved his hand, "If they lose the war, these things should be mine. But if they win the war, I will But I stole these things in advance, so I’m afraid I can’t escape that master’s pursuit no matter how far I go to the end of the world, right?”

"This" Xaro instantly remembered the rumors about Earl Darry in Meereen. Although he never took the initiative to inquire about these, he had been in Slaver's Bay for a month, and he didn't even know that Ian's finance minister was a red-robed woman. I know, but Ian's 'God's Vision' is really famous.

It is said that every animal you see may be Ian's eyes. Even in places where there are no animals, he can see your figure in the flames. As long as he wants to find someone, no matter where you are in any corner of the world, he can find you immediately and then send out his professional killer team.

Although this sounds too much like a rumor, since everyone says so, it is definitely not a castle in the air.

"So, it is good for everyone to abide by the agreement." Hominas continued.

"But, this is only 200,000, right? I remember you just said that you lent the money of the Iron Bank and all the chambers of commerce operating near Slaver's Bay invested by the Iron Bank, as well as their ships, to Earl Darry. Later, What happened again?"

"Do you know Eres Zo Emde?" Hominas didn't answer, he just asked. This was a way of speaking that he acquired under the influence of Celia. As for who influenced Celia, he didn't know.

"A New Ghis general," Xaro nodded. He had an impression of this man. "Four years ago, a battle broke out between us Qarth and the New Ghis people outside the port of Geos. We dispatched mercenaries, including mercenaries. The 31,000 men inside faced off against the 15,000 Iron Legion infantry and 2,000 mercenary cavalry led by Eres.

The battle on land ended in our disastrous defeat. Prince Hameyer, the Star of Qarth, died on the spot. That boy was hailed as the most promising person to restore the authority of the royal family in Qarth in the past three hundred years. He was very important to us. The Big Three was a big challenge and to be honest I'm glad Erez killed him.

However, outside the port of Yeos, Qarth's navy won a great victory. Although the New Giths captured the port of Yeos, we had already burned the supplies in the port before retreating. Ereth lost his supply lines and knew that his supply lines were unlikely to be restored any time soon, so he ultimately chose to negotiate peace with Qarth. We provided ships to take them back to New Ghis and they released all those captured from the previous campaign. captured Qarth, and promised never again to invade the port of Geos and the lands further east. "

"From a military perspective, how do you evaluate this person?" Hominas continued to ask.

"How do I know about this bullshit military? It's an activity engaged in by lower-class people." More than any Qarth general."

"Before Lord Darry's army set off, I once visited General Eres. He is the commander of this New Ghis Expedition. Because his Emde family has deep trade relations with our Iron Bank. , so our personal relationship has always been good. I found him at that time and asked him if he had confidence in this war, and asked him to tell me the truth." The special envoy of the Iron Bank gently played with the porcelain cup in his hand.

"What did he say?" Zaro asked quickly.

"Don't hesitate, lend all your money to Lord Darry, and you will be richer than the Iron Bank in the future." Hominus said Eres's original words.

"Then you did this?" Zaro couldn't believe it. His biggest competitor in Slaver's Bay and the shrewdest businessman in the world would actually make a desperate move just because he believed someone's words.

Now that Volantis is going well, let's put Qarth and Braavos on the agenda.
