Game of Thrones: Knight of Glory

For Bert, these few months were the most fulfilling and happiest months he had lived. He was extremely grateful that he was selected by his family to join Duke Tywin's secret army, and he was also very happy that he could be captured by Lind. Otherwise, he would not be able to use what he has learned as fully as he does now.

Although nominally he is Linde's affairs officer, in fact, his authority has long exceeded the authority of the affairs officer. In addition to the empty title of reconstruction consultant of Tengshi Town, he is now also the tax officer of Tengshi Town Pier. Also the dock master.

Whether it is the tax officer or the dock manager, these two positions are real positions of real power, especially the position of the dock manager. He is responsible for everything from cargo ship dispatching to warehouse use. He has been here for the past month. Went to the dock and did not return to the military camp.

"Will this batch of your goods be shipped out tomorrow? Have you found the ship? It turns out that we share the same ship with someone else." Burt asked routinely while signing his name on the shipment form, and handed it to him without raising his head. The businessman also reminded: "Although the water of the Mandeb River is not very fast, you still need to be careful. In addition, even if it is north of Kuqiao, don't worry if the boat capsizes. Note the location of the capsized boat and we will send someone Look along the route to see if we can help you find the goods. Okay, next one!”

"I have a batch of goods to go to Highgarden very urgently. Can you arrange a ship for me in advance? I can give you some extra benefits." A businessman came up and took out a small bag full of coins and put it in On Bert's table, it can be seen from the gaps in the pockets that the pockets are filled with silver deer.

Without raising his head, Bert directly picked up the bag of money and threw it into the wooden frame aside. He said expressionlessly: "Bribery the official, confiscate the bribe money, put him in a solitary room for one day, and fine him ten silver deer. Guard!"

Following Bert's call, the two guard soldiers standing behind him stood up, preparing to escort the person to the confinement room of the ruined military camp.

But the businessman obviously didn't want to be captured without mercy, and the guards behind him also stood up, forming a confrontation.

"I advise you not to resist. Even if you escape from me, you still..." Bert didn't panic at all. He moved his eyes away from the goods list on the table and looked up at the businessman, just to see where he was standing. Behind the businessman in front of him, he immediately froze, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Father, why are you here?"

"It looks like you're living a good life." The businessman standing in front of him was Reese Farwell. He looked at Bert with relief and smiled.

Bert's face was full of smiles, and when he was about to say something, he suddenly thought of something. He immediately stopped the smile on his face, returned to his original serious expression, and said to Sir Rhys: "Sir Rhys Farwell, your Bribery violates the laws of Tengshi Town. I want to punish you now. Please cooperate and don't resist." After that, he ordered the two guards: "Take him to the solitary room."

After hearing Bert's order, the two soldiers were stunned, not knowing whether they should follow the order or not.

"Didn't you hear my order? Do you want me to emphasize the military law promulgated by Lord Linde?" Bert said seriously.

The two soldiers looked at each other, took a step forward, and said to Sir Rees, "Sir, please come with us! Don't resist."

Watching this scene, Reese Farwell had a look of surprise on his face. He looked at his second son as if he were a stranger. Then he smiled and raised his hand to signal his guards not to do anything and let them return. The hotel in the town was waiting for him, and then he said to the two soldiers: "Lead the way!"

After saying that, he motioned to the soldiers to lead the way, and the three of them walked towards the ruined military camp together.

At this moment, the merchants who were handling various matters on the dock all fell silent, and looked at Bert with a hint of awe.

At the same time, Lind, Nymeria and Jon just walked out of the military camp and walked towards the dock. Reese Falwell, who was being escorted, walked towards them and quickly passed by each other.

Lind and Nymeria looked at Rhys Falwell and then turned their attention. After Lind helped Nymeria formulate the territorial laws of Tengshi Town, this was not the first time that someone had been arrested for violating the laws. was fined and imprisoned.

They are not worried about offending the big nobles. Most of the merchants coming here now are ordinary people or exclusive purchasers of certain nobles. Their status inherently determines that they cannot resist when faced with the laws of Tengshi Town.

What's more, the laws Linde formulated for Nymeria are not the chaotic aristocratic laws implemented by the nobles now. In summary, there are only three laws. The first is bribery, the second is fighting, and the third is stealing, something similar. There are three chapters in the Tengshi Town Edition.

As for the punishment after violating the laws, there are only two types of confinement and fines. Generally, fines are used for minor cases, and confinement is used for serious cases. Confinement is not a dungeon, but is sent to Linde specially prepared for those cavalry and soldiers who violate military regulations. A little dark room that will definitely impress those who break the law.

This is actually some testing done by Linde for his future territory. Not only the territorial regulations, but even the entire Tengshi Town is part of the test.

As several people passed by, Jon also casually glanced at Sir Rhys who was being escorted. He didn't recognize Sir Rhys at first, but subconsciously thought that this was just a person who accidentally violated the territorial laws, until he followed Lind. The two of them took a few steps forward and were surprised to realize that the person being escorted was Sir Rees. They froze on the spot and looked back at Sir Rees to confirm that they had seen correctly.

"My lord, my lord!" After confirming that Sir Rhys was taken away, Jon quickly caught up with Lynd, pointed at Sir Rhys who had walked away, and said: "The person who was taken away by the guards just now is Sir Rhys."

Hearing Jon's words, Lind and Nymeria were stunned for a moment, and turned their heads to look at Sir Lys.

At this time, Sir Reese, who was being escorted, seemed to have noticed Linde and the others' gaze. He also turned his head to look at Linde and the others, and waved to Linde and Nymeria.

"Jon, go ask the guards to release him." Nymeria quickly ordered.

"Wait, Bert is at the dock now, right?" Lind stopped Jon and asked.

"Yes." Jon thought for a moment and said, "He has been at the dock during this time."

Lind thought for a while and ordered: "That's it! Let's visit Sir Rees again after he is put in solitary confinement!"

Nymeria asked: "Will this cause Sir Lys's dissatisfaction?"

Linde shrugged and said: "If he is dissatisfied, let Bert be handed over to him for punishment. Anyway, it is not us who punish him, but his son."

When Jon heard this, he couldn't help but mourn for his cousin. He could imagine how angry his uncle would be with Bert when he came out of the dark room.

At this time, Sir Reese seemed to realize that neither Lind nor Nymeria meant to let him go, and the smile on his face froze. He could only follow the two guards into the military camp, and then came to a row of people who looked like In front of the small dark room of the toilet, he was locked in.

Since the person he wanted to see was imprisoned in the small dark room, there was no need for Lynd and Nymeria to continue to the dock. He asked Jon to go to the dock to inform Bert that he already knew that he had locked up Sir Rhys. Something happened.

The two returned to the office in the military camp and continued to deal with the unfinished matters before.

The next day, Sir Rees was released. Bert took a day off and waited outside the confinement room early. After Sir Rees was released, he immediately took Sir Rees back to the hotel where he lived. In the afternoon The father and son just came to the military camp to meet Linde and Nymeria.

"Countess Nymeria." After Sir Rhys entered the office, he saluted Nymeria first.

Nymeria bowed her head slightly and saluted, and said: "Sir Reese, I still like to hear people call me Earl, not Countess."

Sir Rees smiled, turned to look at Linde, and said: "Knight Linde, I have heard of your reputation for a long time, the number one swordsman in the Seven Kingdoms." He said with a meaningful tone: "I didn't expect to be number one. The first time I met you, I didn’t see your exquisite swordsmanship, but I saw another side of you. You know, you remind me of a person.”

Hearing this very familiar sentence, Lind was stunned and said with a smile: "Sir, the person you are talking about cannot be Lord Randyll Tarly, right?"

Sir Rees couldn't help but be startled and asked: "Has anyone else said such things to Lord Lynd?"

"Master Garlan Tyrell and Lord Fertimo Crane both said similar things." Lind suddenly asked with interest: "Are I really similar to Lord Randyll Tarly?"

Sir Rees smiled and replied: "They don't look alike, but you can see similar shadows in certain behaviors."

Seeing that the atmosphere of the conversation between the two parties was very good, and was not affected by yesterday's punishment at all, Bert, who had been tense since entering the room, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Then Sir Lys chatted with Nymeria for a few more words. During the conversation, Sir Lys cleverly did not mention Nymeria's rumored father, but simply praised Nymeria's mother. After a few conversations with her, she gained Nymeria's favor, thinking that he was a trustworthy elder.

However, Lind, who was standing aside, looked at Sir Rees with a strange look. If he had not confirmed the identity of the person in front of him and just listened to his conversation skills, Lind would have had the illusion that he was facing Littlefinger. Everyone is the kind of master of words who can use words to make people relax their vigilance and gain the trust of others. It must be said that Sir Rhys's ability to become a famous sea merchant in the Western Region is indeed extraordinary.

However, Reese Farwell was not among those influential figures more than ten years later. It must be that something happened in the past ten years.

Afterwards, with the conscious cooperation of Sir Reese, Lind invited him to become the exclusive purchaser of his army and Nymeria Tengshi Town, and the matter was quickly settled.

Sir Rees promised Lind that he could provide supplies such as food and weapons at prices lower than the market price. He could also help Lind purchase some other rare items, and even attract some merchants to Tengshi Town and Lind's future territory. , prompting its rapid prosperity.

As for Linde, what he needs to pay is that before Sir Reese voluntarily gives up his position as an exclusive purchaser, Linde and Nymeria cannot have a second exclusive purchaser.

Lynde hesitated a little bit about Sir Lys's request, but Nymeria readily agreed.

The reason why Nymeria agreed so readily was not because of the goodwill caused by Sir Rhys's words just now, but because in the Seven Kingdoms, most of the lords' exclusive purchasers are fixed and hereditary. , just like a noble family, so Sir Reese's request seems to her to be very normal and reasonable.

After careful consideration, Linde did not find any drawbacks for the time being, so he agreed to Sir Rees' request. '

After that, the three of them signed an oath contract. Since there were no monks from the Church of the Seven Gods, they had no choice but to find a bachelor who had completed his travels and was preparing to return to the school city as a witness to the oath contract.

After each of them put away the oath contract, Sir Rees said to Lind: "I have already prepared the list you asked Mr. Mus to give me before. The rest is easy to say, but the war horse is a little difficult and needs to wait for a while. That’s it.”

Linde said solemnly: "It doesn't matter, don't rush this, take your time, and if possible, find a war horse that suits Nymeria's figure."

"Is it suitable for the count's figure?" Sir Rhys looked at Nymeria.

Nymeria frowned. Although spending time with Linde and others during this period of time, she had gradually adapted to her unusually tall figure, but being stared at still made her feel strange.

Sir Rees suddenly said: "I know that there is a horse that may be very suitable for the Earl's figure, but I am afraid it will be difficult to get it."

Linde looked curious and said, "Tell me about it."

Sir Reese thought about it for a moment, and tried to describe what he learned in as short a language as possible, and said: "I went to Sunspear City not long ago, and I listened to the people there in the tavern talking about the discovery of a man in the mountains near Divine Grace City. Among the horses, there was an extremely tall and powerful wild horse. It was said that its body was much larger than that of ordinary wild horses. Some horse catchers ran to catch it, but they all failed because this horse was very smart and could catch people. It was led into a group of wild beasts, and many horse catchers were fooled and ultimately failed to come out of the mountains.”

Hearing Sir Lys's words, Lynde felt a little interested, but Nymeria frowned. It was obvious that she was more or less resistant to things in Dorne.

Linde seriously considered the possibility of going to Dorne to capture the wild horse, but after repeated thoughts, he shook his head and said: "It will take too long to go to Dorne, and it is simply impossible here. You've been away for such a long time." He turned to Nymeria and said, "Sorry, I can't help you catch that horse."

"It doesn't matter." Nymeria smiled and shook her head and said, "The war horse you gave me is also very good. There is no need to find other war horses."

Watching the conversation between the two, Sir Rees seemed to see something, and an inexplicable smile appeared on his face.
