Chapter 650 Bank
What did the knights of the Reach capture the nobles of Dorne want him to do?
Obviously it's definitely not a good thing.
However, Dickon Manwoodi was very shy, and he didn't want to die here, so even though the cold sweat on his forehead fell when he heard the request of the other party, he still bravely agreed to the request of the other party.
This was exactly the idea put forward by Karen, a young man from Dorne, the guide of the trip. Everyone, including the commander, nodded in agreement, so they started to implement the plan.
They observed for a long time and figured out the law of the supply team leading to the Prince's Pass, then carefully selected their opponents, and then attacked this supply team.
They were going to disguise as a supply team going to the Prince's Pass, escorting supplies, mixed in, and then took the opportunity to do things, and cooperated with the main force outside to capture the Prince's Pass.
At this moment, they cleaned up the battlefield, dragged all the bodies into the woods and buried them hastily, and then put on the clothes and armor of this group of Dorne soldiers. The customs of Dorne's dress also played a big role. Covering half of their cheeks, no one could see their original appearance, and they all transformed into Dornishmen directly.
And the unfortunate second son of Wang Zhongcheng was held hostage, and he needed to use his face to open the gate of the Prince's Pass.
Today, although he is still riding on his warhorse, shaking his head and whistling, there is still an undisguised panic in his eyes, because there is a tall and full-faced 'Dorne soldier' following him all the way.
The other party had a sharp dagger on his waist, and just before he set off, he made a gesture at the base of his thigh, telling him that there was a major blood vessel in his thigh, and his dagger had just been sharpened so that it could scrape spiders. Leg hair.
If Dickon Manwoody dared to yell or say something in front of the gates of the Prince's Pass, he'd give him a kick here at the base of his thigh.
From then on, Dickon could no longer be a man. On the one hand, the most important thing was that the base of the thigh was the main channel for blood supply to the lower extremities.
Once he was stabbed hard, and then spun around in the flesh again, blood would pour out like a fountain. No one could rescue him in time, and he would die from excessive blood loss.
And as long as Deacon Manwoody cooperated well, they wouldn't do it.
One with a white face and the other with a red face made the young Wang Zhongcheng's second son pale with fright, and nodded in agreement. The little thought just now disappeared, leaving only the trembling ride on the warhorse.
It didn’t take half an hour from the beginning of the attack to the end of the cleanup. Fortunately, because the Dornish nobles strictly guarded against the escape of the people under their control, the people of Dorne could not walk around casually, and the road to the Prince’s Pass was also blocked. For hours, no one else passed by.
Then a group of 'material escort team' embarked on a new journey again, but they did not notice that on a treetop not far away, a gray Merlin was staring at them with its head tilted.
It witnessed this scene all the way, but it didn't make any sound, it just watched quietly.
Viserys was still in King's Landing, but he used the power of the old gods in his spare time. A part of his spiritual power was attached to the Merlin, and he watched the battlefield on the Prince's Pass and looked at Joan. What kind of way does Ann Clinton want to break the city.
"interesting."
Viserys sat in the study of King Maegorhouse, leaning on the wooden armrests of the chair, his fingers tapped softly, making noises.
This picture is being reflected in his eyes, and he has traveled thousands of miles to see what happened over there.
Compared to Brandon in the original trajectory, Viserys' mental power is much stronger than him, and now his body is already burning with divine fire.
Therefore, Viserys can be distracted, while manipulating the Merrier, while on the other hand, he still has his own consciousness and can think about other things.
"His Majesty."
On the other side, Illyrio Morpatis, the Minister of Finance who was reporting to him, showed a slight doubt on his face, and His Majesty the King was rarely distracted when dealing with government affairs.
Now the job of the Chancellor of the Exchequer is to prepare for the overall economic reform of the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros.
The Iron Throne Royal Council passed a resolution a long time ago, deciding to establish a central bank similar to the Braavos Iron Vault and the Thirteen Giants.
People can freely deposit and withdraw their family savings, and the Iron Throne will guarantee depositors.
How much interest do you get for depositing money in the bank?
Of course, don’t even think about it. The central bank will not give depositors any interest, but will only charge a small amount of deposit. Authoritative certification helps depositors preserve their assets.
This may not sound very reasonable, but in fact it is very normal in this day and age. Deposits of iron gold are also charged for custody.
Because of the special properties of metal currency, it is very troublesome to trade, store or keep, and it will be lost or accidental if you are not careful.
Therefore, storing money in the vault has become an optimal solution. Many nobles in the Seven Kingdoms have deposited their savings in the iron vault, including Tyrell, who was confiscated and looked like he was about to fall but did not completely fall. family.
The Rose family has contributed more than one million golden dragons to the treasury, but it is still rich because of the dispersion of assets and investments.
The overall strategy of the Iron Throne is to recapture the North, and the pacification of the Dorne Rebellion is just an accident.
In terms of diplomacy, it is the fleet that sent troops to Nas Island. Their farthest mission will visit Slaver's Bay. Although Westeros does not have slavery, it does not oppose all slaves in the world as domineering as Braavos. system.
They sent troops to Nas Island to protect the former vassals of the empire from being enslaved. Naturally, they needed to negotiate with Slaver Bay. After all, there was no killing without buying and selling.
The military and political aspects have their own goals, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer has been tepid, but Illyrio is actually the busiest person since the country was settled.
The front foot recuperates and recovers from the scars left by the war, and just after the recuperation of the rear foot, the economic transformation begins.
Similar free trade city-states launched a series of economic reforms to break the old financial order.
At the same time, after the establishment of the Central Bank of the Iron Throne, it will start to change the currency in the future, and gradually collect the old versions of the golden dragon, silver moon, even silver deer, copper star, etc. on the market, and then re-melt and issue new precious metal coins.
Yes, congratulations edg!
