Chapter 93 Don't talk nonsense, it's yours

Arya didn't know that oneself became Night's by accident The biggest hero of the watch industry, Igor survived the biggest financial crisis since crossing into the world of ice and fire with the help of the girl's timely letter of "worth a thousand pieces of gold".

This wave of operations is all about luck, and it's not ashamed to admit it honestly, but isn't that part of the power as the old saying goes? Under the dual effects of luck and operation, the Night's Watch industry not only survived the crisis in one fell swoop, but even completed a leap in capital. Now, in theory, the funds owned by Night's Watch Legion and actually managed by Tyrion have exceeded the liabilities in an instant, and the capital chain can now withstand 100% withdrawal and redemption!
On the day the order was completed, most of the deposit was magically doubled back to the Night's Watch office, and the rest was reluctantly handed over to him after Igor brought his subordinates and the agreement to his door to urge delivery. In hand - It is worth mentioning that Tyrion suggested that Igor remember the order in which these shippers pay the liquidated damages: The first to know the inside information means the bigger the background, so make a list, in the future formation of interest groups, it is very important Most likely it will come in handy.

Valuable advice, which Igor welcomes.

……

Next, is the successive bond redemption stage.

King Robert, Westeros' most powerful irascible Old Brother, didn't negotiate a few rounds with the "Lords Declarant" at all - he gave the ultimatum straight away, and the ultimatum went unanswered for days Afterwards, a mobilization order was issued, and the princes of the Crownlands and all the nobles of the Seven Kingdoms were formally summoned to prepare to gather the troops of all Westeros to quell the rebellion.

In this case, it is completely reasonable for the bond owners to take back Golden Dragon to buy food and grass equipment for oneself and his subordinates Knight and squire. This is not a malicious redemption, so Igor and Tyrion also took the initiative to cancel the penalty of early redemption of bonds in a very "humane" way: every bond buyer, as long as he comes to the office with the bond, can take away the principal plus at least One month of interest, and the first buyers who held the bond for more than a month even got a two-month return.

A decision means dozens of additional expenses for Golden Dragon, but this is not a hot-headed casual fortune, but the hope that through the "good gathering" which is easy to borrow and repay, it is not difficult to borrow again. It's good to loose", so that after the war is over and the owners of these wealth return to Crownlands and King's Landing, they can still think of putting money into the capital chain of the Night's Watch industry.

Although the remaining net assets belonging to oneself of the Night's Watch industry are not small, but with the expansion and development of the project - no one will think that there is too much money in their hands.

In the bright summer sun, Crownlands troops began to gather at a dozen or more li north of King's Landing, Westerlands, Riverlands Reach, Stormland And North, and even Dorne at the far southern end of the continent, a similar scene is happening at the same time. That's right, the person sitting on the Iron Throne only has the title of king, and is actually at the same level as the other seven in terms of identity and strength. The control over Seven Kingdoms is completely determined by the strength and means.

But fortunately, Robert's own martial power and winning record are extremely deterrent, and under Jon Arryn's more than ten years of management, the alliance between the original groups has not yet broken down. , In addition, Littlefinger, who originally planned to provoke the contradiction between Stark and Lannister, was also brought down. In this peaceful atmosphere, the "Lords Declarant" that Vale suddenly jumped out became the target of public criticism. Lion, wolf, deer, and fish naturally want to rescue Eyrie with all their strength, and even the remaining two who once stood on Targaryen's side in the Battle of the Slayers became Robert's enemies, so after the establishment of the new dynasty, they have always been outside the core of power. The Tyrells of Reach and the Dorne Martells, being "defeated and legally bannermen", faced the king's call to mobilize, and did not dare to openly disobey their orders.

Tyrion made a direct assertion: more or less, Tyrell and the Martell family will also send some important people, with no more or no more troops, just enough to leave Robert speechless to help.

The Westeros suddenly appear to be all in one, fighting the enemy, the last time this happened during the Iron Islands House Greyjoy Rebellion. And this time, even the Ironmen, the rebel professional household, responded to the call and sent a fleet to come. Although the ship was basically useless when attacking the Vale of Arryn, the attitude must be in place.

＊＊＊

All of this has nothing to do with Igor, at least that's what oneself thinks. Taking a piece of the pie is not the brain of a baseless outsider like him. What he wants to do now is to quickly set up the first factory, quickly digest orders from Church and other small customers, and receive The final payment injected living water into the capital chain, and continued to expand after stabilizing its position.

One of the good things about the backward times is that it is not complicated to do anything. After two weeks of passing the first capital test, the first production line has already started in the workshop that has not been completely completed. , Hundreds of thousands of catties of papermaking raw materials began to be put into a large stone mortar, and a wooden pestle, which was thicker than a human being, began to smash the put in raw materials one after another, driven by a waterwheel. The smashed pulp is added to the alkaline medicine powder and then flows into the next cooking process. The trick to ensure that the product can be delivered continuously is this: as long as the initial feeding is continuous, no matter how many days it takes for the intermediate process, the production can be continuous.

The engravings for "Seven-Pointed Star", calendars, etc. are already ready, just waiting for the large batches of paper to come off the production line. The hired Bard and the writers also began to continuously translate the story from word of mouth to word and substance, and the writers worked hard since Igor had promised them attribution rights on the work. Among these stories, Igor is most concerned about a novel based on the "oneself" story. This book is called "The Fantasy Adventure of Night's Watch", and the story is about the protagonist's first trip as an adult. At the beginning, it tells the process of his travels, travels and adventures... After experiencing countless adventures and tempering growth, the protagonist began to be curious about the shape of the world.

At the beginning of the final volume, the adventurer has traveled all over the continent, resolutely set foot on the ship for the first attempt around the world... Eventually, he is shipwrecked to Westeros, forced to join the Night's Watch, and By chance, he became an officer of the Black Shirt Army, and came to King's Landing to raise food supplies and manpower for the defenders of The Wall.

There are no full-time story writers in this world, and the things written by the Bards are a little rough and fragmented, but the story itself is novel and interesting enough, which is enough. The name Igor West does not appear throughout the story, but anyone with a little more knowledge will know that it is the "chief logistics officer" in the offices of King's Landing Night's Watch.

＊＊＊

This is a bold PR attempt, the more the novel sells, the more people will know about oneself's "experience", and wait until oneself will one day break away from Night's Watch, the less negative influence and opposition it can cause... Igor looked at the drafts of several other novels, and compared to the one that oneself outlined and authored to write, the Bards passed it on by word of mouth. The Knight's story is too old-fashioned, and he has an intuition: even if it only looks at financial interests, oneself's story is the most profitable one.

apart from this, Tyrion has already started to prepare content for the things that Tyrion said "can't be on the table". Since he couldn't find experts in this area, Tyrion simply invited the painter and Bard to move in his favorite. Brothel, work together in a place where the atmosphere is most suitable, and strive to have both pictures and texts.

dwarf showed Igor's draft of Xiao Huang's book. To be honest, compared with "xxYoung Master", "x-people's gang", "xx health" and these famous azure publications from Igor in the world, This thing in his hand is simply garbage, and Igor said that he didn't feel it after seeing it... Of course, as a new thing, it remains to be seen how this thing will perform when it enters the market.

Because he had already agreed to oneself's little discipline, Igor handed the booklet to Arya who was waiting by the side glare like a tiger watching his prey. Originally thought that the girl would soon throw things back with a blushing face, who would have thought that she would giggle and watch with keen interest pleasure while cursing "Master, how are you?" She asked for the orphan draft back in her hand.

……

Everything is going well, the paper produced in the pilot workshop is only for the printing of "Seven-Pointed Star" and calendars, and the production line of the factory outside the city is smooth. Get it running and all the prep work will come in handy.

Igor was looking forward to this day, but waited for other uninvited guests first. A servant from the Red Keep suddenly arrives at the office, claiming that King Robert needs a sworn "true Night's Watch man" to go with the army.

Unfortunately, Igor was the only one who met the conditions in King's Landing.

"Why, do you want Night's Watch to go with the army?" Igor asked with wide eyes, and immediately took out the most reliable and useful shield: "Night's Watch swore not to participate in the internal battles of the Seven Kingdoms."

"Why do you want Night's Watch to go with the army?" p>

"King Your Majesty said that when the Bloody Gate is breached, he will allow the nobles who are in trouble to be clothed in black cloth." The servant said proudly with his nostrils up: "This requires a real Night's Watch to receive and escort to Wall."

"But this is a 'Wandering Crow' business, which is under the charge of the Chief Affairs Officer of Night's Watch in the department, and I am the Chief Logistics Officer!"

How can you tell the difference between your Night's Watch affairs officer and your logistics officer? Servant frowned: "Either you go with me and explain to the king Your Majesty, or I go back and tell Your Majesty that you refused his request, I don't care that much. Don't talk nonsense, it's just you!"
