An official from the Iron Bank rushed to Werther's side: "Your Majesty Neptune, I can prove that Sir Werther did have an investment three years ago."

Neptune was already sweating profusely, and he wiped his forehead with his cuff while no one was paying attention: "It's good if you have it, you Iron Bank pay the money quickly, and treat Lord Witte and his entourage well."

Werther: "I only have one person. The people at the door were found on the street."

It was only then that those present realized that the group of people who played and sang at the door did not belong to Werther. "Get out! How can you people enter the Sea King Palace!"

The soldiers didn't dare to touch Werther, so they had no sense of restraint with these artists, and dragged them out by holding their arms.

"My lord! You haven't given me the money after listening to the song! My lord! Give me the money!"

boom!The gate was quickly closed by the soldiers, blocking out the noise.

Witt's face remained unchanged: "Except for the repayment of the principal and interest, how much should the Iron Bank pay me?"

"Master Wirt, please wait a moment."

Today's meeting happened to bring ledgers, and several Iron Bank officials ran aside to check them quickly.The surrounding nobles were silent, sitting upright in their seats, not minding that Werther's sudden appearance interrupted their discussion.

"Master Witte, after our calculations, we should pay Master Witte a profit of 11 gold coins."

It was the same official who walked to the center of the hall and said to Werther.

"It's only 11! Think I don't understand real estate!"

Werther was very angry, reached out and grabbed his collar, lifted him up, and yelled against his face:

"I've demolished such a large area, and the land doesn't cost money. Just the pile of broken bricks, and the craftsmen belong to different families. How much can it cost? A small garden next to a stinky ditch can be called a garden and sea view room! The price Sell ​​it at several times! Those who were tricked into buying a house by you nobles also have a small family property, and it is still repaired on the fourth floor! Do you want me to check the account myself?"

Expert!

Several nobles who participated in the project nearby saw that Werther was about to start, so they hurried over to smooth things over, otherwise Werther and none of the magicians present would be able to survive.

"Master Witte, please calm down! The Iron Bank only counted their profits, and our construction side still has a profit that has not been counted. How much do we have?"

He felt winking at the noble next to him.

Another nobleman answered, "We have to pay Mr. Wirt a profit of 21 gold coins."

Werther put down the iron treasury official, straightened his crumpled clothes himself, then turned around and put his arm on a nobleman's shoulder.

"Is it really a profit of 21 gold coins?"

The nobleman whose shoulders were held by Werther was sweating coldly, his hands were hanging by his side, and his fingers kept making hook movements towards the person next to him.

"There is another material fee, which can be considered as the money we earned with Mr. Werther, and there are about 20 gold coins."

42 gold coins is almost enough. Werther thinks this price is more appropriate, and there will be nothing more to squeeze out.

"Okay, you put the money in a box today and transport it outside the southern city for me."

Every inch of Braaavos had been housed, and the Aldawiing was too big to land, so it had to be transported outside the city to the south.

After being confirmed by Werther, several nobles and Iron Treasury officials rushed out of the Sea King Hall to prepare gold coins.But the things here are not over yet, Werther looked at Neptune again:

"I still have a score to settle with Braavos, you! You look quite young, but you should also know about my past with Braavos. People in the nine trading city-states know that the Seven Kingdoms are attacking the Stepstone Islands, How dare you send the Purple Fleet to attack?"

The golden retriever on the throne had a bitter expression on his face: "Master Wirt, it really wasn't me who launched the attack, it was Sea King!"

"Aren't you the King of the Sea?"

The blond Neptune quickly explained: "It's been less than two months since I took office. It's the former Neptune who launched the attack."

Werther: "Your Aquaman can change fast enough, what about others? Call him over and I'll ask him what he thinks."

None of the people present dared to speak out, and finally the blond Neptune answered the question:

"Master Witt, the former Sea King was sprayed to death by your dragon in the sea area northwest of Tylo, and the body was not even found."

"Is it true?" Werther asked those present.

"it is true!"

"The former Sea King was crowned shortly after Lord Werther left, and your father-in-law, Prince Oberon, was also present to witness. During his reign, he listened to slander, appointed villains, and rashly launched a war against the Stepstone Islands. All of us nobles They are all opposed!"

"exactly!"

These villains who see the wind and the wind!Werther didn't talk nonsense: "I don't care which sea king it is, he and the purple fleet represent Braavos, you are responsible for this war! You launched a war on the Stone Step Islands, and I sent a dragon to resist, you know How much meat does a giant dragon eat for a meal? Compensation for rashly launching a war!"

Werther pointed to himself.If you lose the war, you have to pay compensation. It stands to reason that this money should be paid to the Seven Kingdoms and put into the treasury, but Witte intends to keep it for himself. The Seven Kingdoms have no ability to ask for it. Who will get the money based on their ability? Neither!

Neptune is really sweating profusely now: "How much compensation is Mr. Witt going to ask for?"

"A mouthful of dragon flames can melt a fortress. During the battle, my dragon sprayed at least 80 mouthfuls of dragon flames. Calculated as a mouthful of 3 gold coins, I will be compensated with 240 million gold coins!" Lion Werther opened his mouth and shouted at a higher price.

If they bargain, then continue to talk to them, in case the other party agrees, it will make a lot of money.

"Master Witte, all the money in the Sea King's Palace is not so much! It was all spent by the previous Sea King building warships and conscription!" The blond Sea King cried anxiously, fearing that Werther would lose his temper.

Werther stood silent.

"Boss! The palace steward, come here!" The blond Neptune ran down from the throne, and hurriedly called the steward of the Neptune's Palace over to count how much money he still had to spend.

Not long after, he called a few big nobles together to discuss, and the faces of a bunch of people were not good-looking.

Witt still ignored them, but sped up the rotation speed of the five magic balls behind him a little. When the magic balls rotated slowly, there was no sound. Once they were accelerated, for example, the flame balls of the destruction department would buzz with the air, changing The white magic ball will make a slight sizzling sound.

Werther was expressionless and motionless, only the sound of the magic ball behind him was getting louder and louder, and everyone present felt very uncomfortable. They wanted the sound to stop but dared not, for fear that the magic would fly out when the sound stopped.

The blond Neptune came to Werther again, he was only as tall as Werther's shoulder, and looked up at Werther:

"My lord, Braavos can only scrape together two million gold coins!"

Witte: "Really only 200 million?"

Blonde Neptune: "There are really only so many, and the animals raised in the Ten Thousand Animals Garden are still worth some money!"

"As a human being, I have always kept a line for others. If you lose the war, you have to admit it. Prepare gold coins quickly, and just give me one of your rarest animals."

It's useless for Werther to take animals. He accepted a strange animal from them to satisfy Oda Wiing's greed.

This time the payment went very smoothly. One advantage of gold coins is that they can be circulated everywhere. Braavos gold coins are slightly smaller than gold dragons and lighter in weight. If converted into gold dragons, the compensation received this time is only 200 million gold dragons .

Outside the city, the Braavosians packed the gold coins into packing boxes and put them in a big net. Amidst their exclamations, Aldaviing fell from the sky and ate a snow bear in one bite. walk away.

Chapter 170: Happy

With the dragon as a means of transportation, Werther's range of activities in the continent of Essos is much larger.

This trip to the nine major trading city-states will not only go to one place. Werther told Audaweiying that snow bears are as rare as giant dragons, and one is worth 50 gold dragons. Audaweiying regrets swallowing it in one bite. Taste it carefully, it is grateful for Werther's generosity, and the speed of flying is very fast, very hard.

Originally Werther planned to take Viserys' skull back to Tyrosh, but after some understanding, his skull had already been taken away, so he had to return empty-handed.

When Viserys Targaryen died three years ago, his body was taken by his guards and cremated according to the Targaryen tradition, with the ashes placed in jars.The skull was Werther's trophy, no one dared to claim it, and it was placed in the Temple of the Moonsinger by Braavos officials along with the urn.

Until the previous year, the urn and skull were taken away by an unknown person after paying a large storage fee.

When he came out of Braavos and went south, he secretly visited Pentos City.

Daenerys hatched three dragons, as well as the remarks that discredited herself in the nine major trading city-states. After investigation, Werther got some information.

Illyrio Mopatis, one of the governors of Pentos, was away on business for a long time, and his servants didn't know where he went.

After Daenerys hatched the three dragons, she got very close to the people of the Golden Group. Two months later, she moved eastward with the people of the Golden Group and never appeared in Pentos again.

All the rumors that were unfavorable to Werther in Pantos, after tracing the source, were all said by members of the Golden Group when they were drinking in the tavern.

The three pieces of information all indicate that Daenerys has come together with the top management of the Golden Group, and has left the nine trading city-states and headed for the Dothraki Sea region. The terrain there is too large, and Werther can't find them even riding a dragon. Can only give up and continue south to Volantis.

Oda Viying appeared directly above the city of Volantis, and after circling a few times, Werther jumped down and landed on a large square in the city.

When they landed, the soldiers of the Elephant Party had already laid out the guard of honor and received Werther according to formal diplomatic etiquette. Dofas Pennymeen, whom he had not seen for a long time, dragged Werther into the castle.

The three consuls all attended the reception banquet. The slave owners who used to hire slaves to dig pits, and several businessmen who sold their strength were also there. Everyone was full of wine and food. Werther wiped his mouth and said to everyone:

"Everyone is a big shot in Volantis, and you should know that Tyroshi is under construction. In my own name, I purchased goods worth 150 million gold coins from Volantis."

Hearing this number, Dofas Pennymeen knew that even if he was loyal to Werther, one person would definitely not be able to take such a large order, so he just wanted to get a little more share: "Duke Werther, what kind of goods do you need? Are you here?" All of them are famous people from the city of Volantis, as long as Duke Werther asks, we can provide them.”

Werther: "All kinds of glass produced in Volantis, in addition to all kinds of architectural and decorative glass, I also want to customize round glass for watchmaking. There are also silk and spices brought from Yuhai. infrastructure supplies, and hired a large slave construction team.”

Dofas Pennymeen: "There are too many goods. My opinion is that the people present should negotiate and provide the goods. If we can't get them all together, we will inform other merchants. How do you feel about this, Lord Witt?"

He came forward and distributed the benefits to the people present to win the relationship. Werther also supported him: "You are one of the consuls. I just place the order, pay the money and receive the goods. As for the intermediate process, I don't participate."

"Thank you very much for the trust of Duke Witt! We will definitely provide the best quality goods and the strongest slave builders!"

After some careful discussions, all the trade contracts were finally signed before night. Werther said goodbye to nobles and merchants one by one with contracts as thick as a stack of dictionaries.

At night, Dofas Pennymeen brought another consul of the Elephant Party: Nesiso Wisama. The two wore black hooded robes and secretly came to the luxurious guest room where Werther was temporarily staying in the dark. Nesiso came to swear allegiance to Werther on behalf of the family.

After Dofas was loyal to Werther, his power and wealth grew rapidly, and he persuaded the other two consuls in the previous war to form an alliance with the Seven Kingdoms and send troops to contain Rees and Mill.

As luck would have it, the city of Rees was being attacked by pirates and the Seven Kingdoms, and the Volantis navy took advantage of the situation to attack and captured the city of Rees in one fell swoop.Let Dofas Pennymeen's popularity reach its peak, and his support in the army is also ridiculously high, so there is no need to worry about the next term.

The victory came too suddenly. While the dream of thousands of years became a reality and cheered the people in the city, the high-level officials were at a loss.They didn't think about how to rule the city of Reese at all, they just wanted to kill all the people of Reese and rob them of their wealth, and Werther's public declaration of alliance with Reese prevented them from doing too much.

Now Reese City is apparently independent, but in fact, all the high-level nobles have been killed, and the people who manage Rees City are all Volantene nobles.

Among the three consuls, Dophas Pennymeen, who was originally the weakest, has overwhelmed the two and has become the most powerful and respected family in Volantis.As a member of the Elephant Party, Nesiso Wisama naturally began to turn to Dofas and asked why. It turned out that he had secretly pledged allegiance to the new Dragon King Werther Baratheon.

The Volantenes' yearning and adoration for the dragon is deeply rooted in their bones, and they are also proud of it.Neciso Wisama made up his mind to give his allegiance to Werther after seeing a giant dragon with a wingspan of nearly 200 meters flying over the city today.Werther doesn't have the silver-blond hair and purple eyes of Valyria, but as long as the Dragon King can bring benefits to his family, even Werther is a dwarf.

After the swearing-in ceremony, Werther showed his approachable side, let the two sit down, and Werther poured them wine himself.

Witte: "Now that both of you have pledged your allegiance to me, I hope you will unite and fight against foreign enemies!"

Dofas was terrified: "Lord Werther, Volantis has been governed by the Tiger and the Elephant since ancient times."

Seeing that he misunderstood, Werther quickly corrected him: "I will not interfere in the internal affairs of your Volantis. You two can even show discord in public. The enemies I am talking about are the remnants of the Targaryen family. , Daenerys Targaryen!"

Neciso: "I heard that she hatched three baby dragons. If they are not controlled, they will become a serious problem in the future. The governor of the Tiger Party mentioned it many times and wanted to find Daenerys."

Werther: "She has a dragon. Once a dragon grows to the size of two horses, it can fly people into the sky. You better not mess with Daenerys. Just look for her news and bring it to me." .”

Dofas and Neciso agreed.

The three little dragons are a huge temptation for those of them who have Valyrian blood. Even if they are not the blood of the forty dragon king families, they will definitely try to tame the dragon after they find the dragon.

Werther can't control everyone's desires, and they will give up after they are sprayed to death by the dragon, and the news will be notified to him sooner or later.For this kind of external forces that take the initiative to seek refuge, as long as they can get the desired results, Witte doesn't care about their specific process.

After a few days of busy work to check the goods, the merchant ship Yang Fan set off. The heavy cargo ship is expected to take a month to reach Tylosi City.On the way home on his dragon ride, Werther circled a few times over the city of Rhys and made Alda Wiing yell a few times before flying back to Tyrosh.

The highlands of the inner city of Tylosi, originally a large area of ​​noble gatherings and the castle of the Maharaja, are now in ruins.According to Werther's plan, except for the Duke's Castle, no buildings will be built here for the time being.In addition to King's Landing City and Old Town, this place will be the residence of the largest magic school and branch of the Academy City in the future.

When Werther floated to the ground, Odaviing had already flown to its Skull Island.

In Tylosi City, especially the entrance of Werther's temporary residence, there are more Dornish soldiers guarding them, and several Dornish nobles are also eating in nearby restaurants, turning their heads to pay attention to the situation of the house from time to time.

"I can still sense Tyene's magic power, there is no violent fluctuation, so nothing should have happened, right?"

Werther hurried home. The Dornish soldiers guarding the gate had been here for a long time, and after recognizing Werther, he quickly opened the gate.After entering the house, I realized that not only the outside, but also many people in the house.

"Werther! You are finally back!"

Tyene ran over and wanted to jump up to hug Werther, but the young woman on the side quickly grabbed her.

"Duke Witte! Good afternoon!"

"Master Witte! Good afternoon!"

"Hello." After returning the salute, Werther raised his eyebrows at Nymeria who was sitting beside him, explaining.

Nymeria got up and walked in front of Werther, straightened Werther's wind-blown jacket with her hands, then looked into Werther's eyes and said:

"After confirmation by a dozen experienced ladies in the city, Tyene and I are both pregnant!"

"That's great!"

Werther was really happy, and there was an indescribable feeling in his heart. Various thoughts in his mind were constantly colliding, and his heart was full of mixed feelings.

There have been countless power struggles under the banner of the Clan, Crowned Stag.But I am a time traveler, born with no sense of belonging to this world, I just want to play in the world.The blood of the dragonborn gave him powerful magic and dragons.In fact, Witte has always acted with the mentality of a prodigal son and a ranger.Now that the world is about to have its own offspring, the combination of these thoughts makes Werther very uncomfortable.

After seeing Werther's appearance, Nymeria's originally smiling face turned into grievance, and she touched Werther's face with both hands: "Don't you like children?"

Seeing Nymeria's appearance, Werther finally realized that his wife had just said that she was pregnant, and she had a bitter look on her face, which would make people have such bad thoughts. She immediately turned into a smiling face and hugged Nymeria tightly:

"Trenee! Come and give me a hug!"

Holding the two girls in his arms, Werther dared not use his strength now: "Until you give birth, I won't go anywhere! Oda Viying has to come to Tyroshi to patrol every day!"

Tyene: "Okay, but we can't accompany you."

Werther patted Tyene's head: "You're pregnant and still think about these things."

Nymeria: "They are all sent by my father. After he heard that I was pregnant, he sent a lot of people over. From now on, they will directly belong to me."
