The journey of film and television world is endless

His words drew the attention of both men, even Tyrion, who had been staring at the sword on the table, looked up at him. Gillyane asked, "Oh, what kind of business? I'm very interested, especially if even the wealthy Lannisters can't refuse."

Liu Yuan reached out and tapped the table: "This was something my subordinate found by chance in the city of Norvos while doing business in Essos. Ser Gillyane, you can appreciate it; I believe you will also be interested."

Gillyane frowned, but Tyrion jumped down from his chair, reached out, and tried hard to pull out the longsword. However, the sword's length of 150 centimeters was very unfriendly to his height. Tyrion struggled for a long time but couldn't pull the sword out. Gillyane reached out and took the sword. He couldn't help but admire it; this sword was so in line with the Lannister aesthetic! It was golden all over, and the golden lion on the hilt was inlaid with two emeralds as its eyes. As the longsword was slowly drawn out, exquisite patterns were engraved on the blade, and the unique water-wave pattern of Valyrian steel could be clearly seen on both sides of the blade.

"This... this... this is a Valyrian steel sword, could it... be... Brightroar!!!" Gillyane was so shocked that he became somewhat incoherent. It was no wonder he was so distraught. Since Torrance II disappeared into the Valyrian ruins with the family sword 'Brightroar,' it had been a full 400 years. The Lannister family, as the top family on the continent, did not even have a Valyrian steel sword of their own.

Tyrion was also very excited. He stroked the blade and said, "Uncle Gillyane, this shouldn't be the family sword 'Brightroar.' I've seen pictures and specific descriptions of 'Brightroar' in the family's library. It should be a two-handed greatsword. This sword shouldn't have such a long history; it looks very new and more ornate. Ser Garland, what do you mean by taking out this sword? Do you want to sell it to the Lannister family?"

Liu Yuan said with a smile, "Hehe, Mr. Tyrion, there is one thing I need to clarify. I am not a knight, nor have I been knighted. A few years ago, I heard that Lord Tywin intended to buy the Valyrian steel sword of the Brett family and was willing to pay a considerable price, but he was rejected by Baron Brett. This time, it's a rare opportunity to come to Casterly Rock, so I plan to visit Lord Tywin to see if he is interested in this sword."

Gillyane asked, "It's an honor! Mr. Garland thought of our Lannister family first. I wonder, Mr. Garland, what price are you planning to sell it for?"

Liu Yuan looked at them and smiled without saying a word. Tyrion quickly tugged at his sleeve and turned to Liu Yuan, saying, "I'm very sorry! Mr. Garland, we can't make decisions about this matter; I need to go back and report to my father! However, I would like to invite you to be a guest at Casterly Rock so that our Lannister family can fulfill our hospitality as hosts. Then, my uncle and I will take our leave first, and we will formally invite you later."

Liu Yuan got up and said, "I've long heard of the grandeur of Casterly Rock, but I haven't had the opportunity to visit it. It will be my honor to visit Lord Tywin!"

Liu Yuan escorted Tyrion and the two men out of the camp gate and watched them ride away on horseback. A playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: The fish are hooked!

A few years ago, Liu Yuan heard in Oldtown that Tywin's Westerlands army had ransacked the entire King's Landing, and it seemed that everything except the Iron Bank branch and the Great Sept of Baelor had been looted by them.

In order to rip off this rich bastard, Liu Yuan re-melted the sword he had made before. It took nearly a month of careful crafting. The sword was 149.3 centimeters long, and the total weight, including the decorative gold and gems, was 3.48 kilograms.

In fact, the Valyrian steel material used was only a little more than 500 grams, which was not as much as the short sword that Count Adrian gave him before he left. This Lion's Roar sword was made as early as three years ago, but it had been left in the space because the time was not right.

What he was most satisfied with was the mechanism on the hilt. When activated, as long as you swing it hard, the airflow will enter the cavity of the hilt. Finally, it will flow out of the golden lion's mouth at the end of the sword, making the roar of a lion. Such a weapon for showing off will definitely get to the pleasure points of these great nobles. In order to sell it for a higher price, he also specially prepared a set of mysterious accessories.

In the afternoon, people from Casterly Rock really came. This time, Tyrion came to invite him in person. He was riding in a luxurious carriage, with ten red-robed cavalrymen as guards. Tyrion said with a smile, "Mr. Garland, we meet again. My father invites you to be a guest at Casterly Rock and has specially prepared a banquet for you tonight. Please come with me!"

Liu Yuan responded with a smile: "I am looking forward to meeting Lord Tywin, Mr. Tyrion, please wait a moment. I need to prepare myself, and I also need to bring a gift."

Among the Seven Kingdoms, the Westerlands is not the largest in area, nor the most populous, nor the most abundant in resources. But without a doubt, the Westerlands is the wealthiest. The hilly areas within its borders give birth to dozens of gold and silver mines, and the output is so abundant that it is staggering! Casterly Rock—Golden Tooth—Castamere—Nun's Deep—Pendric Hills are the main producing areas of gold mines, all of which are coveted. Casterly Rock is the largest mine, and the Lannister family has ruled the Westerlands for thousands of years.

But Casterly Rock was not built by the Lannisters. This castle originally belonged to the Casterly family. Legend has it that the first Casterly lord was a hunter named Carols, who lived in a small village near what is now Lannisport. He accidentally discovered a gold mine during a hunt and then secretly mined it. In order to prevent the mine from being plundered, he moved his whole family into the mine and added defensive facilities at the entrance. After decades of unremitting efforts, he almost hollowed out the top of the rocky mountain, and finally turned it into a huge fortress.

As a result, a golden-haired thief tricked Casterly Rock out of Casterly's hands. No one knows how he did it. He was called Land the Clever, and he was also the founder of the Lannister family. From then on, the Casterly family disappeared into the long river of history, and the once unknown Lannisters rose to prominence. The lion family is beautiful and prolific. After only a few generations of development, Land's descendants became so numerous that Casterly Rock could no longer accommodate them. They dispersed the numerous collateral branches and settled them in nearby villages.

Gradually, this place quickly developed into a city, which is now Lannisport, and countless branch families were derived from it. For example, the Lancers, the Lannetts, the Lents, and so on. Gold mines and trade made the Lannisters the richest in the world, and it was also the foundation for them to control the Westerlands.

Liu Yuan and Tyrion rode in a carriage from the stone bridge into Casterly Rock, and the first place they arrived at was the Lion's Mouth. This natural giant cave is also used as the main entrance of Casterly Rock. It is hundreds of meters high and has been continuously widened and renovated over thousands of years. Today, the wide stone steps are enough for twenty riders to ride side by side. The east-west length of the castle is about two leagues, and many of the buildings are deep in the mountain. According to Tyrion, there are tunnels, dungeons, cellars, barracks, halls, stables, stairs, courtyards, balconies, and gardens inside the mountain.

There is a passage inside the castle that leads directly to the bottom, and there are hundreds of mines below. Even after thousands of years of mining, rich red gold and gold mines still sparkle deep in the rocks.
