Chapter 67 Chaos is a Ladder

While Igor and Tyrion talked about the details of building a printing industry chain, Back to the hotel together. When entering the door, Boss told Igor that a youngster came to him in the afternoon to ask for money.

"It should be the son of the mine owner who you introduced to me." Igor thought about it carefully, oneself has not borrowed a sum of money yet, so naturally there is only such a person who can come and ask oneself for money. : "Probably the Dragonglass mine can start, and it needs funds... There are so many things that I almost forgot about it."

"Let Jyck send a sum of money tomorrow." Tyrion without The slightest hesitation said, "Alas... the first time I found out - it seems that the money is not enough."

"The signboard will not arrive in two days, but you can go to pick up the seal tomorrow." Igor Said: "Get the first loan as soon as possible."

"That's the only way to get rid of oneself... Well, I think about it, where to start."

The two went upstairs while talking. Everyone had a busy day, and after having dinner together, they went back to their rooms to rest.

＊＊＊

Tyrion may be really resting, but Igor is not so comfortable. For Imp, it may all be just a fun game, if say The wealth of the previous generation is the capital of trial and error for the next generation, and behind him is House Lannister, who is one of the most qualified to take risks in this world.

But oneself can't, oneself's parents are not even in this world, this scam is about his next survival in this world... He has to spare no effort. Anyone who may harm oneself's interests is an enemy.

Pace around the room, he racked his brains thinking of ways to prevent Littlefinger from gaining Eddard Stark's trust.

Hour after hour passed, and one plan after another was abandoned. If it was a simple sow discord, anyone would do it, but this time oneself's opponent was the top player in Game of Thrones. Either kill him directly, or don't let him find out that oneself is against him - otherwise, if you are not careful, you will lose your life. After thinking about it, Igor finally had to admit that fighting people was not as fun as the grandfather said.

The most direct and violent way is to inform Eddard Stark of the fact that Littlefinger murdered Jon Arryn, but this is a little different from the last time when Joffrey was framed - Petyr instructed Lysa Tully to poison her husband Duke Arryn This happened while oneself was in the Wall, and the truth is known only to both the participant and the instigator. Where does oneself impossible come from "hearing" the news... Moreover, this move can't be used again and again: a Night's Watch is not doing business, and listening to all kinds of top-secret information all day long, Ed will how to think?
oneself wants to play the upright and loyal Night's Watch soldier, not The Spider.

So, maybe it's time to use the scheme that was finally abandoned during the last Winterfell incident, the anonymous whistleblower?
But how should the anonymous report letter get to Ed... In this King's Landing with eyeliners, a single step of negligence may have fatal consequences. Littlefinger may not have confidants and friends, but at least he has money and connections... And oneself has nothing for the time being. If exposed, a glass of poisonous wine, a dagger or a cold arrow can completely erase the existence of oneself.

Sending a letter through Arya is also not safe. A ten-year-old girl has no scheming. She may not take the initiative to sell "master", but in front of the dearest father, an unintentional word will be exposed. oneself.

It has been quiet outside the window, and there is no curfew in King's Landing, but unless there are major festivals in this era, there is generally no such thing as a night market. Igor long sighed then said, putting out the candle and lying on the bed, hoping to figure out a way to wake up tomorrow, as he did last time in Winterfell.

Maybe he has been thinking about ways to deal with Littlefinger, and when he closed his eyes, the other party's motto floated in his ears.

Chaos is the ladder.

……

Chaos is a ladder. There is actually some truth to this sentence. In a world where classes like ice and fire are solidified into a near-condensed world, the best way is for the people below to want to be promoted. It is to create chaos. Chaos will damage the interests of those at the top of the society, and if some people are harmed, others will definitely benefit.

The problem is that in the chaos, the people who benefit should be fairly random, and even wildly unexpected. Littlefinger's ability is that he can make oneself reach the places where the "wounded and bleed" of the great nobles precisely, catch the "blood" they shed, and become the biggest beneficiary of the chaos. At this point, he even throws Varys, a same-level player who is good at long-term layouts, a few streets away. Similarly, using the stock market analogy, Varys and Littlefinger bought the same stock with a general trend of rising. The former profited by holding it for a long time, while the latter could use micro-manipulation, selling high and buying low, so that the benefits of oneself far exceeded that of oneself. The stock's overall rise.

Igor was amazed and admired by this innate talent.

But Petyr is by no means without flaws. In the original plot, he vividly and thoroughly demonstrated the limits of what a thorough realist can do, using the power of palace politics to play with almost everyone. in the palm of the hand. But the problem is that, in addition to pursuing oneself's ambitions for power and position, he did not show any political ideals - that's fine in the early stage, and until the end of the game, he didn't even "make up" an idea to attract followers or Consolidate the power that oneself has grasped. Before the revolt, a reckless man like Chen Sheng and Wu Guang knew how to shout, "The prince and the general are like Ning's seed", you have nothing, why sit on the Iron Throne?

Littlefinger said that players who are strong and strong, good at strategy and have no moral bottom line are indeed more likely to emerge from troubled times to become winners. But that's all, he is the most powerful destroyer, but he will never be the ultimate winner - his best destination is to help a certain power rise to dominate the world and then follow him to eat meat, but he just wants to sit on the throne, this impossible realization The goal of his life eventually cost him his life: All Littlefinger's power is that he is oneself, anyone who comes to him, and even if he kills him with a knife when he reaches the peak of life, no one will cry for him, let alone start. even revenge.

If Igor just wants to see what happens to him, he can just do nothing and wait, and Littlefinger will eventually kill oneself. Without Arya, there would also be Bellia and Celia who eventually jumped out and killed him. But here's the trouble: what oneself wants to do now is beat Littlefinger on the battlefield where he's most comfortable, and that's a little harder.

 …

Chaos is the ladder.

Chaos is the ladder.

If Littlefinger wants to create chaos, oneself has to maintain stability. Igor read the imaginary opponent's motto in his heart, ready to fall asleep.

But a voice suddenly emerged from the subconscious: why? Why guarding peace must create stability, and if it is contrary to its cultivation, it creates chaos together, and the chaos of King's Landing situation intensifies to the limit beyond the controllable limit, so what will happen to fight poison with poison? The biggest advantage that oneself has is to know the inside story, give up this and think about running to play tricks with Littlefinger, only those with severe obsessive-compulsive disorder will do this. Since the enemy wants to stir up the water, why can't you step in and stir the water so that no one can see clearly, see how you can benefit!

Igor was shocked by this bold idea, and for a moment even wondered if it was Greenseer or a similar god stuffed into oneself's mind, but after careful scrutiny, he found that this move is feasible! No matter how intense the Game of Thrones is and how fierce the undercurrent is, as long as the palace fight does not turn into a war, and the market and people's livelihood are not affected, oneself's deception can continue!

Stir up this pot of muddy water and make the situation so complicated and chaotic that it is difficult for any Game of Thrones player to profit from it. At that time, "stay out of the way" and play seriously and dutifully Oneself and Tyrion of the money game can become the biggest winner!
A lot of things can cause confusion, but what is the lowest cost?
Rumors.
