Sword and Magic and Taxi

The city of Braavos, where the Iron Vault is located, is not on the Westeros Road, but across the sea. This famous city of free trade is very rich, and the iron treasury is its pocketbook. The king of Westeros often borrowed money from the iron treasury to spend the years of famine or upgrade his armaments. Tiejinku’s motto is “no default”, but they don’t only need gold coins, they also accept various methods of repayment, from cattle, sheep, rice, noodles, and even slaves. Backed by the city of trade, these "repayments" can always be realized quickly and become huge profits for the iron vault.

The Iron Treasury has no armed forces. If it encounters a king who is in arrears, it will immediately turn its head to support its opponents. If this king is too good, it will use money to create enemies to recover its investment. Therefore, although it did not participate in the war in Westeros, its use of money is also entangled with this series of wars.

Westeros' biggest debtor is the royal family, which is Geoffrey Baratheon. This is a headache king, combined with stupidity, madness, cruelty, and his own way. Tiejinku has always had doubts about whether he can recover the royal family's loans.

So Tiejinku did one thing. When one of Geoffrey Baratheon’s enemies, his uncle Stannis Baratheon, borrowed money from the Iron Vault, the Iron Vault agreed and gave him a huge amount of money to arm himself and let him Be able to regain the strength from the previous failure and launch a charge to the throne again!

Zhao Mai doesn't care who will become the king, but he has to pay attention to Stannis Baratheon because he did not drive to the capital after borrowing the money, but went north to the Great Wall of Impasse! Stannis is a superstitious person, very concerned about the words of Melisandre, the "Lady of Fire" beside him. And when his beautiful red-robed priestess and Prime Minister Davos Silvers pointed out to him "a terrible threat from the north", Stannis, who believed that he was the king and protector of Westeros, decided to take the throne first. Set aside the contention, "Go and save all the subjects."

If there is no army of Stannis, the night watchmen will be defeated by the army of the "free men" of Mans Reid, the king of beyond the Great Wall, and it is impossible for all the night watchmen to survive. Without the Night Watchman, the Great Wall of Despair is no longer a "Despair", and ghosts can climb south without hindrance, and then sweep the entire Westeros. If that happens, the world of Westeros will really collapse.

It took Zhao Mai only half a minute to understand the relationship in all of this, so the key is "Did Stannis get the money?" He looked at Liu Su who had carried the ambulance, and felt that he still had something to do. Asked him, so he said to Zhong Jianbai, "Director Zhong, is there any kind of lamp that can be used to bask in the sun in the hospital? I was frozen outside the wall before."

Zhong Jianbai paused, and then he understood what Zhao Mai meant: "Yes, you can go with Captain Liu. Did you bring your badge? It doesn't matter if you didn't bring it, just stay with Team Liu."

"Hey, thanks." Zhao Mai waved his hand, and jumped into the ambulance with the flower pots on his back, and sat down beside Zhao Mai honestly. Even though the doctor is reluctant, there is no good way, so the driver has to drive as soon as possible.

"Team Liu, how did you bring down the iron treasury? Did Stannis borrow any money?"

"I didn't understand the economy at all. That's Zhong Chixiu's expertise. You don't have to ask Xu Yaning, she doesn't understand. Although Zhong Chixiu has done very sad things, but his ability is really strong. I remember the bank went bankrupt. And when he encountered the run, Stannis had just arrived in Braavos, so he probably failed to get the money."

"That is to say, he has no funds to form an army, and can't go north to help the night watchman resist the savages?" Zhao Mai sighed: "So, it's not saved?"

"The night watchman is defeated, or Jon Snow is completely dead, then it's over." Liu Su moved his neck slightly and turned his head to look at Zhao Mai with difficulty: "I didn't expect the world to be so unstable, and I I haven’t figured out what Zhong Chixiu is doing. I don’t know who I am or who I am. Every battle will end. This is a lesson!

"Is there any way to remedy it?" Zhao Mai asked.

"I don't know, and I don't recommend you to go there again. If the world collapses, it may not always be possible to evacuate. I know that one person, who was unable to make it in time, was smashed together with a certain planet. This time, yes Concerning the problems with the ministries and commissions, you will definitely be compensated. You don’t need to take risks. And, thank you for saving us. Even if we don’t know what happened later, we know that if it’s not you, we will definitely Has been abandoned."

"Actually, Zhong Chixiu kept asking me to send you back, and then lied that I had killed him, and then sent him to another world. He said that there is the origin of magic, and everything is possible. Do you know where it is? ?"

"Thank you, it made me feel better to hear that he was not going to kill us in the end. I have only heard rumors about the origin of magic, and there is no definite information, but you can ask the old man." His eyes squinted. Take a look at the doctor in the car.

understood. Zhao Mai snapped his fingers, the doctor stared blankly and fell asleep with his head tilted.

"Strong! I now know that Zhong Chixiu must have been convinced by you. I have seen him interacting with a thousand-faced man and a wizard before, but I believe he said that is an indispensable part of the plan. He is very proud of himself and can be obedient. Surrender must be convincing." Captain Liu said in a low voice: "The public and convincing information is that certain times and events are critical to specific abilities and are subject to key protection. For example, the birth of the Three Cleansing World, such as the Lich War. For example, Fengshen and Journey to the West. These time periods are related to the old man, so no one can go without his approval, even if other transcendents are the same, do you understand?"

"I understand that self-protection mechanisms are the foundation."

"Magic can be regarded as a powerful power system, but where did magic originate? Although we are in the East, there are many people who specialize in this. It was later discovered that although magic is powerful, there is no such thing as an old man. , Which means that its origin is not protected by the detached, it should be a place that can be reached. On the one hand, everyone thinks that there is a possibility of detached from the magic branch, so they are all fighting; on the other hand~www.NovelMTL .com~ Some people stubbornly think that the trio is magical detachment, so the so-called origins that can be found now are all deceptive."

"I believe in the latter more. Because all detached persons are not bound by time. Even if they will only appear after tens of thousands of years, they actually existed tens of thousands of years ago. But this will form a kind of The paradox is that all detached persons have been and have been completely produced, and there is no possibility that new ones will appear. I can’t understand it anyway. And the old man is secretive about this issue, just saying that he can’t understand if he doesn’t understand, he can’t give us Explanation."

"Going back to what I knew, once I went to Zhong Chixiu, his room was not closed, so I went in. Many people in the origin of magic were researching as subjects, and I saw that his notes had a time and a coordinate . I know you can grab the order, so I can initiate a request for you now, and you have to receive it immediately. I will cancel it, but you can record it. By the way, I need some gold coins."

Zhao Mai took out his gold coin and stuffed it in Liu Su's palm, then quickly received the order and recorded an address. "How could it be there? Impossible?" Zhao Mai was a little startled, but Liu Su said that this was the most reliable he knew.

"This person Zhong Chixiu is too obsessed, too paranoid, and has flaws in his behavior, but he is really smart. Alas, what a pity." (To be continued.)
