Chapter 79 Paxter
The speaker was clad in a black silk-lined velvet tunic embroidered with roses.

This person was tall and tall, with an extremely handsome and handsome face, somewhat similar to Loras, the Knight of Flowers.

Next to him was a middle-aged man with a bald head and a white beard. He had a stern face and a serious expression.

"Count Tully, welcome to my house." The Duke of Mace, who was sitting behind the huge table, first expressed his welcome to the middle-aged man, and then asked his son:
"Why don't you give this Mr. Arthur a weapon? This is what Loras wrote to say."

Hopper followed behind Arthur, and explained to his friend in a low voice:
"This is Garland, the second son of the Duke of Mace, and that is Lord Randyll Tarly of Hornhill, who hates the Dornishmen very much."

As soon as Arthur was reminded, he probably knew something was wrong.

Horn Hill is located at the junction of the Reach and Dorne, and the Tully family has led the defense and counterattack against the Dorne for hundreds of years. How could they have a good impression of the Dorne?

And this Earl of Tarly, who defeated Robert at Ashford 15 years ago, is extremely brave and aggressive, with a tough personality.

Rumor has it that in order to ensure that the heir to the family was a Predator, he recruited two wizards and performed blood magic on his weak eldest son, Samwell Tarly.

After it didn't work, the two wizards were beaten up and left in despair.

Then the second son Dickon became his main training object. In order to pave the way for Dickon to inherit the family, the eldest son Sam was sent by him to the Great Wall as a night watchman.

Arthur could only be considered unlucky to meet such an iron-blooded and ruthless person.

Who made him come here with a dozen Dornishmen?

Garlan Tyrell gave his father an explanation.

"Because this person came to the River Bend with the blood troupe of the notorious mercenary group, so I judge that Lord Arthur is not a good person. Giving them armor and weapons may make them hurt other innocent people. I suggest that father not sell give him."

"That's it." Duke Metz's face turned cold, his attitude obviously changed.

My third son may have been deceived by this person, but the second son was right.

He turned to Arthur, "You heard what my son said, so I decided that High Court will no longer sell weapons and armor to you. As for the [-] gold dragons in storage, you can withdraw them at any time. If nothing happens, You can leave now."

After finishing speaking, he began to deal with the next matter, which was the territorial dispute between the Oakheart family and a certain minor nobleman under the rule of the Western Lions.

Only wrong names, no wrong nicknames!
Arthur had a deep understanding of this.

Lord Mace Tyrell, with his actual actions explained why his nickname is "inflatable fish".

Although the blood troupe has a bad reputation, it may be able to walk freely in Westeros, which obviously cannot be a reason for refusing the deal.

It could only be that Lando Tarly, who hated the Dornish people so much, persuaded Garland to stop the deal.

A few words from the second son can make him a dignified duke and take back what he just said.

I really don't know who he learned his lord education from.

Can such a move convince his vassals?
The friend who made friends with Arthur was Loras who was far away in King's Landing City, and he couldn't help him now.

Buying the weapons and armor from the Rose family is considered a waste of time.

Fortunately, Redwin's family can still get [-] sets, and they can also recruit some free warriors, so this trip is not in vain.

Arthur didn't hesitate anymore, and asked the twins to take him to see Earl Paxter.

After walking a long way in the huge castle, they finally found the Earl of Qingting Island who came to their aunt and mother-in-law's house.

"It's just a small matter, just to say hello, and let you come all the way to Gaoting."

It may be that he has been in contact with various businessmen who come to Qingting Island to buy wine for a long time, and Paxter, a middle-aged man, seems to be extremely knowledgeable.

As soon as he entered the room, the earl first gave up his seat, then asked the servants to bring fruit plates and pastries, and then chatted with Arthur about the deal.

The tone is very enthusiastic and the attitude is very peaceful.

From the first meeting, Arthur felt that he knew him very well.

It was in stark contrast to the attitudes of the Tyrells.

"It's not in vain, at least I got to know the Earl." The lord of Moulin Rouge who sat down replied.

As for Arthur, he treats anyone who treats him well.

Change your heart!
The Hopper and Horace twins have behaved very well since they were convinced by him. They tried their best to protect Arthur's face on some occasions, and even sneaked back to Highgarden with him just to help him buy some armor and weapons.

Now that their father was so amiable again, it made Arthur feel that he could form a deeper friendship with them.

The earl asked about how Arthur met his two sons, and how Arthur won two championships in the hands of a group of well-known fighters.

Arthur and the twins talked about what happened in King's Landing very cooperatively.

"Seven layers of hell." Earl Paxter sighed, "Who in the entire continent can stop your hammer now?"

"Magic Mountain? He is too clumsy, he can only be beaten to death by you obediently. I can only say that your enemies are unfortunate, they may not even leave a whole body."

The Earl of Qingting Island babbled for a while, and then sent two stewards to take Arthur to the ferry town to inspect the goods.

Although he treats everyone equally, but his status is there, it is impossible to accompany Arthur for some weapons and armor.

Arthur had no problem with that.

Although the exchanges between nobles often do not distinguish between titles, the distinction between high and low is still very clear.

The twins went with Arthur. They regarded themselves as half-landlords, so the hospitality was very good.

The way they went was almost the same as when they came last night. After half a day, they arrived at the ferry town.

"It's all here, please check."

The two stewards took Arthur and others to the long ship docked here, and then directed the boatmen to move out the things Arthur needed.

The three main types of weapons are full-length bows, half-handed swords, and long spears. The main armor is chain mail covering the torso and neck, and there are [-] sets of full plate armor.

"Full sincerity, your father is really an honest man." Arthur was very satisfied with the armor given by Qingting Island.

Just these [-] sets of plate armor covering from head to toe are already worth the trip.

Chain mail is worn by big soldiers, pierced armor is worn by veterans, and plate armor is truly elite equipment.

With Arthur's combat power, with hundreds of formed plate armor troops like this, he can cut through the infantry formation of tens of thousands of people several times.

There are a total of [-] gold dragons in these weapons and armors, and the average little nobles basically can't afford so much money.

But compared to the [-] golden dragons that Arthur got from the two championships, it was a piece of cake.

This also made Arthur feel again how much Robert loves to spend money.

A bonus from a martial arts tournament can arm an army of considerable strength.

After the inspection, everyone went to the town for lunch.

Of course, they went to the best pub in the whole town, and the twins recognized a few people they knew.

"Cousin, why are you here?"
