Game of Thrones: Lord of the Deep

Jack looked Ivan Gru up and down.

This guy is not as bad as Mando said. On the contrary, Ivan looks like a very smart young man.

"Hello, Prime Minister. I have heard of your name for a long time. The reputation of the Dragon Father is well known. I am so excited to meet you in person today."

Although Ivan was flattering, his excitement was not fake.

Before, his father was very sure that Jack was a person who would do things if he received benefits, but he did not believe it.

He thought that all dignitaries were selfish and misers.

But he did not expect that Jack would directly push his father to the position of deputy prime minister.

This made Ivan very excited. After all, as the son of the prime minister, his status would definitely rise.

And his father also won him the opportunity to become Jack's attendant. He finally had a ticket to become a player in the center of power.

"Ewen, you look good. Follow me from now on.

The first task for you is to notify all administrative officials who have not yet taken office to hold a meeting at the Prime Minister's Pyramid."

"Okay, I'll go now." Ewen left quickly.

Then Jack said to Mando: "Let's go, Lord Mando, let's go to the Prime Minister's Pyramid first."

"Lord Mando, what do you think of the current situation?" Jack asked as he walked.

Manduo knew that Jack was testing him, so he immediately said:

"We haven't gained a firm foothold yet. There is an assassin in Meereen called the Sons of the Harpy.

Although this assassin does not have a strong assassination technique, it is not afraid of life and death.

They usually hide among the people or even the former slaves, and the number is unknown.

What I am most worried about now is them. They are like poisonous snakes in the shadows. Once we show signs of fatigue, they will stick their heads out and bite us hard!"

Hearing Mando's words, Jack's trust in Mando increased a lot.

Being able to take the initiative to talk about the situation of the Sons of the Harpy means that he has been thinking about the problem on Dany's side.

And the Sons of the Harpy did become Meereen's biggest problem.

Even when the slave owners returned to attack Astapor, Dany had no chance to sneak attack the slave owners' coalition.

Because as soon as Dany left with the Unsullied, the slave owners in the city would regain control of Meereen.

"Yes, the Sons of the Harpy are indeed a big threat. You will be an administrator in the future. Is there any way to eliminate the Sons of the Harpy in your jurisdiction?"

Mantuo remained calm on the surface, but was very surprised in his heart. Jack seemed to have known about the existence of the Sons of the Harpy for a long time.

After getting his mood right, Mantuo said: "The Sons of the Harpy cannot be eradicated for the time being. We can only wait for them to show up, follow the clues, and completely eradicate them."

But although Mantuo said he would eradicate them, he didn't have much hope in his heart.

He knew how difficult the Sons of the Harpy were, but it was not easy to say it now.

Jack didn't care about Mando's answer. He didn't expect Mando to make any effective suggestions.

The Sons of the Harpy are actually the dead soldiers raised by the nobles of Meereen, and some free people who hate Dany very much.

For the Sons of the Harpy, Jack has thought of a simple way to deal with it.

Although it may not be possible to completely eradicate the Sons of the Harpy, it must have a suppressive effect.

The two walked and talked, and soon arrived at the Prime Minister's Pyramid.

The Prime Minister's Pyramid is a small pyramid next to Dany's big pyramid.

At Jack's suggestion, Dany renamed the Big Pyramid the True Dragon Pyramid, and set this small pyramid as the Prime Minister's Tower.

In the future, the Prime Minister's Tower, renamed from the small pyramid, will be Jack's residence and office.

As for the Deputy Prime Minister, Jack can only say that he is not qualified yet. In the future, all the regular officials in the Round Table will have a small pyramid as their residence.

This can reflect the difference between the prime minister and the deputy, as well as the gap in status and power.

Jack led Mando into the Prime Minister's Pyramid. The upper floor had not been cleaned up yet, only the first floor had been cleaned up.

The first floor was also where Jack would work in the future.

It is worth mentioning that the pyramid was not as dark and damp as Jack had imagined.

On the contrary, as the residence of the top dignitaries in Meereen, the pyramid was warm in winter and cool in summer, with good light transmittance and ventilation.

Moreover, there was artificial glass in the Game of Thrones world, so the interior of the pyramid would not appear dim.

After waiting for a while, the remaining ten people also arrived one after another.

"Please take a seat, everyone. From the moment Her Majesty the Queen appointed you, you are the administrators of your respective special zones. I need to tell you something."

Jack thought that some things must be explained, otherwise it would likely cause trouble later.

"The first is the management problem. I don't want to hear rumors about you oppressing freemen or new freemen in the future."

"Second, you should have enough literate people to assist you in management.

So the collection of taxes is left to you, and then you submit it to His Majesty.

I don't mind you embezzling, but don't let me catch you, otherwise the position of administrator will be handed over to someone else."

Jack simply gave a warning to prevent this group of people from causing public resentment.

"Third, you will compile a set of laws for me within three days.

This code applies to everyone, regardless of nobles or commoners. Do you understand what I mean? "

Everyone nodded. Jack wanted a code to govern Meereen, and this code must be absolutely fair.

This task is very simple. Just modify it according to the previous slave owner code.

"Finally, you go to your respective administrative districts to count the population, including all nobles and freemen. Be sure to count them clearly.

Then form a community with ten neighboring households. No one, including nobles, is allowed to move or hold gatherings of more than 20 people at will.

In the community, if one family commits a crime, the other nine families will be treated as guilty.

Of course, if you take the initiative to expose it, you will not be punished, and you will be rewarded. "

"Also, let your people inform that there are a large number of reactionaries in Meereen, including spies, assassins, sons of harpies, etc.

Anyone who reports and verifies the truth will be rewarded with fifty gold dragons, and His Majesty will personally distribute the money. "

This is Jack's first method to deal with the Sons of the Harpy, the system of collective responsibility.

Since the Sons of the Harpy are hiding among everyone, Jack will let everyone monitor the Sons of the Harpy at all times.

And there is another benefit to doing this, which is to fully control the labor force of Meereen and keep everyone under the surveillance of the government at all times.

At the same time, the benefits of Jack winning over these nobles are also reflected. These nobles will provide enough literate people to help with the work.

For example, how many people under Dany can count in the job of counting the population?

Although the Unsullied are very powerful, how many of them can be literate?

And there is an invisible benefit, that is, this group of nobles will also win over other nobles to become their allies.

They will also be afraid that they will be isolated by all the nobles, and will unconsciously win over familiar nobles.

These nobles who are won over will become Dany's potential allies.
