Chapter 463 Game of Thrones

After Meereen was captured, Daenerys began to implement the system she had implemented in Yunkai in Meereen.

Slavery was abolished, land and houses were distributed to slaves, they were allowed to own personal property, and taxes were adjusted to five to one.

This tax rate is very low compared to other slave city-states. At the same time, she ordered that taxes be treated equally for everyone, and even nobles must pay taxes.

In other places, just paying taxes uniformly would cause big troubles, but here in Yunkai and Meereen, this decree was passed directly.

After all, the emancipation of slaves had just been completed, and there were very few nobles in the two cities, and they were still remnants of the previous slavery system.

They have no right to object at all.

And her attendants also obeyed her orders. But elsewhere she and her order encountered resistance.

In Slaver's Bay, after she led the army away from Astapor and Yunkai City, spies and spies sent by other slave owners began to create chaos in the city.

And the other city-states in Slaver's Bay band together and no longer trade with the city owned by Daenerys. The slave city-states originally relied heavily on trade. After being isolated by other city-states, Astapor, Yunkai and Meereen all had problems.

The most obvious food problem is that the food output of the three city-states is not high and they cannot be self-sufficient. In addition to food, many things also require trade.

After taking control of three cities, Daenerys suddenly found herself outnumbered. This insufficiency does not mean that her army is insufficient, but that there are too few people under her who can serve as officials.

In this era, the literacy rate was pitifully low and there was a shortage of city managers. Seeing this situation, Daenerys can only handle a lot of government affairs by herself.

This means that she spends a lot of time dealing with government affairs every day. Daenerys didn't even have time to study magic, but even though she was so busy, the situation in the city did not get better as she hoped, but it still seemed chaotic.

"Your Excellency, we should not waste time here. Your main task now is to lead the army to the Seven Kingdoms and regain your Iron Throne." Barristan, Daenerys' attendant, said.

As the captain of Daenerys' father's Iron Guard, Barristan has extraordinary martial arts skills. Although he is old, Daenerys still relies on him for important tasks.

"Barry, if I can't manage a city well, then what qualifications do I have to manage the Seven Kingdoms?" Daenerys said, looking at the old man in front of her.

"Even if I use my army of dragons to sweep across the Seven Kingdoms and finally sit on the Iron Throne, will I become the next Mad King?"

Daenerys' words silenced Barristan. In the end, he agreed with Daenerys's point of view and served Daenerys as captain of the Iron Guard, hoping to assist Daenerys in bringing peace and stability to Meereen.

Because of the assassinations of those slave owners, Barristan decided to help Daenerys train a team of knights to protect her safety. Daenerys agreed and asked Bali to train men from among her squires.

But this does not change the dilemma Daenerys faces now. In desperation, Daenerys had to come to Richard for help.

"Your Excellency, I need your help." Daenerys came to Richard's laboratory for help.

Richard said without raising his head: "What trouble have you encountered?"

"I now have to deal with all kinds of government affairs in one day. I handle all the government affairs in the three cities of Meereen, Yunkai, and Astapor. I can't handle it alone!" Dany! Liz said.

After Richard reorganized the dragon blood chain in his hand, he put it into a petri dish for cultivation, and then said, "Is it because there is a shortage of manpower to manage the city?"

"Yes."

"You are against slavery. The nobles in the city are not willing to work for you. You can't even find tax collectors. In this case, you can change your mind and train a group of officials yourself."

"Training managers by yourself?" Dani has never thought of this method at all, because she knows very well that this kind of thing is very difficult to operate.

In this era, many positions are actually hereditary, and knowledge is only in their hands, and ordinary people have no chance to access it.

It would be too difficult for her to reinvent the official system.

"Apart from this, do you have any other options? Or are you willing to bow to those slave owners?" Richard asked.

"Only by doing that can you truly hold power, otherwise you're just a rubber stamp, a mascot, and that's what Game of Thrones is."

Daenerys immediately responded: "Never!"

"I will never compromise with those slave owners!"

"Then open a school and train your own managers so that you won't be constrained by them. In the future, you will have to fight for the Iron Throne. After you sit on the Iron Throne, the people below will still treat you. What can you do if you go against your will?"

After hearing this, Daenerys understood that it was imperative to build a school.

"Don't think that training managers is so difficult. It's actually very simple. You don't need to train them to be all-rounders, you only need to train them in their work part. As long as those people are not stupid, they will learn it soon!"

"And you have dealt with so many government affairs during this period of time, I believe you have your own set of solutions for government affairs. You can sort out all the government affairs you have dealt with during this period."

"Category, all types of government affairs are divided into types, these types of government affairs are basically similar in solution, you can use it as a solution."

"Sorting out the solution for each type of government affairs that you think is the most perfect. If you encounter a similar thing next time, just follow the method you sorted out before!"

"Although this way of handling government affairs is not so perfect, it is enough to manage these cities. After all, the original system of this city is not very good!"

"At the same time, you can also use this set of things to teach and train a group of managers in a short time."

"Although these managers have limited abilities, after a period of adaptation, the best ones will also show their talents. When the time comes, you will train those talented people and get better management talents."

"You don't need many schools like this, you just need to spend some time training."

Richard's words made Daenerys suddenly enlightened, and she immediately got up and returned.

Next, Daenerys ordered people to sort out all the government affairs she handled during this period, and then selected 100 smart people from the slaves.

These people will be the first batch of students in the government academy. These slaves are all innocent, have blood feuds with the slave owners, and will never be won over by them.

After confirming the loyalty of these people, Daenerys began to train them.

At the same time, Daenerys also gave simple training to his maids, asking them to help her sort out all the government affairs.

Then the most appropriate disposal method was selected from each category.

With Richard's method, Daenerys often only needs to take a look, and then she can come up with a disposal plan, and the speed of handling government affairs has increased sharply.

The disposal of affairs that originally required a day of non-stop can now be easily done in two hours.

Next, Daenerys's school was also opened, and the 100 people selected were all smart people, and they knew very well what they were facing.

At this time when the dissemination of knowledge depends on family inheritance and the poor have almost no knowledge, it is impossible for them to get the opportunity to obtain knowledge.

Now, the matter of changing their own fate, and even the fate of their families, is right in front of them. As long as they grasp it, they and their families will completely cross the class in the next few hundred years.

So, all these people studied very seriously.

They were even more focused on Daenerys's narration. Although many of them did not understand the text, they still wrote down the knowledge in a way that they could understand.

At the same time, Daenerys was also teaching these people the text. As long as they were willing to learn, the text was not an insurmountable barrier for them.

After Daenerys established the academy, Daenerys often took these students to deal with various matters in person, just to make them familiar with government affairs as soon as possible.

At the same time, the slave owners in Slaver's Bay did not stop, and they were still doing things in secret. After consulting Richard, Daenerys began to implement the Baojia system in the city she controlled.

She set up the civilians into groups of ten households, and each group had a headman, who was responsible for the ten households. Once a stranger was found, he should ask in time, and if he was a suspicious person, he should report it immediately. He was also responsible for assisting in collecting taxes.

These slaves were originally rescued by him, and they had a high degree of recognition of Daenerys. The baojia system was implemented quickly without any obstacles.

With the baojia system, those spies who sneaked in to make trouble were successfully exposed.

In just three days, dozens of spies sent by other slave owners were captured in Meereen. These spies were originally mixed in the crowd in the city, but they were reported without knowing what was going on.

For a time, the spies and killers in Meereen were swept away. Without these people making trouble, the public security of the entire city was immediately stabilized.

After seeing the effect of Meereen, Daenerys immediately sent people to Yunkai and Astapor to implement it.

The emergence of the baojia system caused great losses to those spies. Originally, most of these spies were from the Sons of the Harpy, which was funded by slave owners and came here to cause trouble.

As a result, they were caught off guard and a large number of people were directly captured by the Baojia system.

Daenerys hated these bugs hiding in the dark and directly ordered all the spies to be beheaded and their heads to be hung on the city wall for public display.

Although the Sons of the Harpy had the strong support of slave owners, its scale was only a thousand people, and it lost one-third of its manpower at once.

And then, the difficulty of their wanting to cause trouble increased several times.

The Sons of the Harpy gnashed their teeth at Daenerys, but they dared not be as reckless as before.

Seeing the failure of the Sons of the Harpy, these nobles had no better solution for a while, and could only continue to blockade their economy, while at the same time, they took the time to train the army.

After seeing Daenerys' elite army, these slave owners finally learned their lesson and spent a lot of money to recruit and train more troops.

Seeing a lot of money flowing out of their hands, these slave owners felt a dull pain in their hearts and hated Daenerys even more.

Daenerys solved the public security problem and temporarily solved the government affairs problem, but there was still a problem that had no good solution, that is, food and supplies.

Since she raised the banner of liberating slaves, the slave owners have cut off trade with her, and now all three cities are short of food.

Now they can survive partly because of the food reserves of the slave owners in the past, partly because of various livestock, and partly because of the high-priced food that Daenerys bought from other countries.

If the food problem cannot be solved, then all her rule will be a castle on the beach, which will disappear without a trace when a wave rushes over.

Faced with this situation, Daenerys actively opened up trade routes on one hand and encouraged planting on the other.

Daenerys distributed the land to the civilians, who were very active in farming. Many wastelands outside the city were reclaimed and planted with food.

If a large amount of land is cultivated, if everything goes well next year, they will no longer worry about food, but the problem is that is next year, and this year's food has not been solved.

Daenerys can only ask Richard for help again. Richard has a lot of supplies, and food is naturally available. He directly took out 20,000 tons of food from his personal space, which is enough for Daenerys's people to eat for two years.

With the help of Richard, Daenerys solved most of the problems, but the trade problem was still not solved. As a city-state that thrives on trade, it will naturally decline rapidly without trade.

At the same time, only through trade can Daenerys get enough money to arm her army and build her warships.

Then lead the army back to the land of the Seven Kingdoms and recapture the Iron Throne.

But after the trade was blocked, the city's tax revenue plummeted, which delayed Daenerys' idea of ​​forming an army fleet again and again.

At this time, a noble of Gis found Daenerys and said that he could help Daenerys solve the trade problem.

This noble named Hizdahr zo Loraq was very rich and ran a gladiatorial arena business. He was the largest and most numerous gladiatorial arena operator in Slaver's Bay.

During this period of time, Hizdahr had been persuading Daenerys to reopen the gladiatorial arena business, but Daenerys thought the gladiatorial arena was too cruel and had always refused.

In the past, Daenerys might have considered appeasing these nobles, but after solving the food and security problems, she no longer planned to appease them.
