Chapter 0780 - A Unique Negotiation

Your Majesty, let's hear from your Prime Minister Tyrion Lannister first. He's been with the Magic Mountain for a few days, and he should have some better advice for you. ”

"Of course!" Daenerys looked at the sky, "before we sit down, Arene ......"

"Your Majesty, give me a moment to think about it. ”

"Good!"

Daenerys raised her hand to the sky: "Magic Mountain, you are welcome to negotiate, come down." ”

"Your Majesty, go talk to your flagship. "The sound of the Magic Mountain rolled low over Dragonstone Island like thunder. He tapped the dragon's head with his palm, and the dragon flew towards the flagship of the Queen, in port.

Magic Mountain didn't have any negotiable tone, and it was decided directly!

The dragon flew over the harbor, and the power was like a mountain, overwhelming the sky, and the soldiers on the battleship were all uneasy.

"The Queen's flagship, row out of the harbor and out to sea. Demon Mountain shouted categorically.

The fierceness of the Demon Mountain and the dragon was like an invisible and qualitative force, causing the soldiers on the port warships to look at each other. Without waiting for Her Majesty's order, hundreds of warships slowly separated, and the captain of the Queen ordered the oarsmen to slowly row the flagship from the channel.

The dragon's outstretched wings obscured the entire harbor, blocking all the sunlight over the harbor, as if evening had descended in advance.

On the wall, Arrene Martell said to Daenerys, "Let's go, Your Majesty, go to the flagship." She commanded Viserys to ride the dragon: "Bow down, Viserys." ”

Viserys obediently bowed, his dragon's eyes flickering like jewels. Alene stepped on the dragon's back and looked at Daenerys, "Your Majesty, let's go." ”

"Arrene Martell, the mountain is worried that I have an ambush in Dragonstone that will work against him?"

"Magic Mountain is a cautious man, Your Majesty, and he has no trust in you. ”

"Does he believe you?"

"He's always been cautious!"

Very discreet?!

It's cautious, believe it or not?!

Prudence may be suspicious, scheming, or scheming.

This is Daenerys' first official encounter with the Magic Mountain, which gives her the impression of a cunning snake hiding in a hole and peeping out.

"Your Majesty, do you need us to go to the port first?" asked Barristan Selmy. He and Jorah Mormont both looked at Daenerys with their hands on the hilt of their swords.

Daenerys nodded, and Barristan and Jorah, as well as Argo and Lacarlo, led the royal guards down the city wall and mounted their horses and ran towards the port.

"Draugon!" Daenerys shouted.

Drogen, who was hovering at low altitude, immediately flew down the city wall.

"Bow down!"

Drogon leaned down, and Daenerys flipped onto the dragon's back, "Fly." ”

Droggon glided out and skimmed over the heads of the Dothraki cavalry, Rego following the Mother of Dragons. Viserys groaned softly, flapped his wings, and followed the two brothers.

Three dragons, two beautiful women, flew towards the flagship of the Queen, in the harbor.

The Mountain refuses to negotiate with Daenerys in Dragonstone. Daenerys has a lot of fierce generals around her, and her martial arts are no worse than those of the generals in Clegane. There is no guard in the Magic Mountain, and there is no navy on the sea to respond, so he never trusts it. Be careful, be careful, there's nothing wrong with it.

The reckless image of the Magic Mountain, with a delicate heart and a thick skin, never cares about the reputation of the so-called knight's glory and courage. The so-called heroes are short of breath, and their children are long. Magic Mountain never sees itself as a hero. When it comes to safety, it's better to be a bear than a hero.

If Daenerys wants to laugh at him for being gutsless, then laugh!

Daenerys' generals want to spread the word of mouth about his timidity and dare not enter Dragonstone for negotiations, so word of mouth will be good!

Strategically, never trust your enemies!

With the size of the Demon Mountain, after entering Dragonstone Castle, it would be even more difficult to get out if it was inconvenient to use force in a small space. Even if the Sheep Thief is invincible, inside Dragonstone, the Sheep Thief's size cannot enter the hall and various towers. If there are dead soldiers and the magic mountain die together, the magic mountain will be truly glorious.

Taking your destiny into your own hands is more comfortable than in the hands of others!

In the picture table room, Bran Stark, who was watching all this from behind the curtains, didn't say a word. His face was calm, and no one knew what he was thinking. But his three-eyed raven was jumping around uneasily, and the Magic Mountain's caution once again made Bran feel more difficult than he had ever felt before. The Magic Mountain came to negotiate, but he refused to enter Dragonstone Castle, which Bran and everyone else did not expect.

You can laugh at the cowardice of the Magic Mountain, but to negotiate on the flagship of the sea is indeed the best place to negotiate for the Magic Mountain, which has only two people. If there is any change, if the Magic Mountain cannot escape in its entirety on the sea, then Daenerys and her elite guards will not escape their lives.

Both sides are on the same geographical advantage! No one has the advantage. On the flagship, Daenerys has the advantage of soldiers and generals, but the magic mountain has the advantage of dragons. The sheep thief only needs a breath of dragon flame to ignite the flagship into a big fireball, even if he jumps into the water, who can hold his breath for long? In the end, he can't escape the pursuit of the sheep thief, and no one wants to get a chance to escape.

Thinking of this, the meticulousness of the Magic Mountain's mind made Bran feel a chill in his heart. Bran, who had all the experience of the blood crow, once again felt powerless. Even in the face of the Black Fire Rebellion and the pursuit of the Aliens, the Blood Raven has never had such a fluctuation in his heart. Fierce as cold iron, cruel as black fire, they are just the defeated soldiers of the blood crow. Murderous like the Night King, the strange ghosts sent to hunt down Bran always have to be one step behind him...... The iron and blood of the past swept before Bran's eyes, and countless outstanding and great enemies were wiped out in front of the blood raven, but this magic mountain actually had a layer of fog that the eyes of the Green Prophet could not see.

This is the second time that Magic Mountain has given Bran the feeling of being unable to do so!

Bran's gaze looked through the curtain to the harbor. His three-eyed crow fell silent and began to peck at the corn on the table, and after a while, the corn pecked out, and the three-eyed crow flew out of the window and flew northeast of the sea. At the end of the northeast, there is a free trade city-state: Braavos!

Braavos has two places that the bravest knights, the wisest strategists, and the most powerful kings in the world will never underestimate: the Iron Vault and the Black and White Courtyard. The Iron Treasury grants usury to governors, kings, dukes, and princes of the world, and the House of Black and White has the world's most powerful assassin: the Faceless.

HMS Queen's flagship.

For the first time, Daenerys faced the Magic Mountain up close, as tall as Barristan Selmy, as strong as the Great Bear Jorah Mormont, and as small as a child in front of the Magic Mountain. And Tyrion Lannister, in front of the Magic Mountain, is like a small puppet in the shape of a human.

The arms of the Magic Mountain are as thick as tree trunks. His body was like a wall.

With a greatsword on his back, a fierce look in his eyes, and a face like a rock, Daenerys had never seen such a fierce giant.

This guy can't be considered a human at all, he's just a beast in human skin.

Blood Alliance Guards Jogo and Lacallo's eyes widened as they watched the Demon Mountain, their mouths unable to close! They couldn't believe that there was such a fierce man in the world. Their former leader, Drogo Kao, was also a giant, but much smaller compared to the Magic Mountain.

They had to look up at the Magic Mountain as if they were only half-grown children.

The Magic Mountain is majestic and mighty, and it is unstoppable!

He sat down in a huge chair that let out a slight moan, as if it would shatter with a thud the next moment.

The magic mountain spoke, his voice was roaring, he didn't need to shout, and he didn't roar at all, but his voice was like a suppressed low rolling thunder, intimidating, "Your Majesty, I have brought you the snow salt of the western realm." ”

Moshan took out several bags of salt and opened them, his thick fingers seemed to be a child's arms, looking clumsy, but his movements were extremely dexterous.

The salt packet unraveled, revealing a fine white salt.

Tyrion Lannister, along with Arrene Martell, placed bags of salt in front of Daenerys.

For the first time, Daenerys saw salt as fine as river sand, and the salt was snow-white, not the pale yellow that Daenerys had become accustomed to.

"The snow salt of the West, there is no dirt and stone residue dust, and there is no bitter taste. It's the most delicious condiment in the world. I feed the dragon's roasted meat, marinate it in snow salt, and then coat it with the finest spices from the East. Moshan said politely.

No wonder Drogon, Regor, and Viserys refused to eat cured meat, for this vicious creature had used delicate snow salt and the best spices to roast the dragon's food. The finest spices in the East, which Daenerys herself has not enjoyed many times, are worth a lot of money. She had traveled long distances from Slaver's Bay to the Dothraki steppe, from the steppes to Pantos, to Dragonstone, and had no chance to sit down and enjoy life.

The queen is still like this, how delicate can the delicious food of the three dragons be? Daenerys thought it was the best way to make meat cured in sea salt!

Dragons are gluttonous, arrogant, picky, and wealthy. After eating the roasted meat of the Magic Mountain's snow salt and spices, they will no longer eat Daenerys's cured meat unless they are extremely hungry. That's too rough!

Although Moshan spoke very politely, his body, eyebrows, eyes, and voice still gave Daenerys the feeling of a savage barbarian.

"Thank you, Magic Mountain!" Daenerys sat upright, her snow-white neck raised. The queen is majestic and dignified, but unfortunately, in front of the Magic Mountain, her body is too petite, and she can't show the queen's momentum in front of the Magic Mountain.

"Your Majesty, if this snow salt is sold to the East, to Slave Bay, to Quells, will it be sold for a good price?"

Daenerys frowned slightly, Magic Mountain is here to talk about this?

"I think so, Magic Mountain. ”

"Your Majesty, I still have this gift for you. ”

Magic Mountain took out a delicate gift box, the surface of the gift box was carved with a dragon-shaped relief, opened it, and inside the box was a snow-white object. Daenerys saw this thing for the first time, rectangular and pure white.

The Magic Mountain held the object in both hands and placed it in front of Daenerys.

"What is this?"

"It's paper!" said Tyrion Lannister.

"Paper!" Daenerys was surprised, she had never seen paper like this before.

Daenerys is familiar with paper, made of sheepskin or other animal skins, which can change greatly with the humidity and dryness of the weather.

"This is a paper made from tree bark, grass, bamboo strips, etc., and then made into paper through a variety of small processes, and I only have this one. It took a lot of time for my family maids to make such a book. Your Majesty, you know that Westeros has a civil war, and I don't have any free time. ”

Daenerys stood up, rubbing the paper with her hand, which felt smooth and delicate like jade.

How is it possible in the world to have such delicate paper?!

"You made it?"

"The method that my wife came up with, my family's maids tried to make it, and it took more than half a year to make a sample, but it can't be produced on a large scale yet, all because of this damn war. But it could have been better, the color wasn't white enough, and the surface wasn't smooth enough. ”

This is a rough version in the eyes of crossing the Magic Mountain, but in Daenerys's eyes, it is a miracle.

Daenerys flipped open the paper, which was so thin that it seemed to be able to pass through light.

She had never seen such wonderful paper. It is flat and thin, and there is no convex or concave when you touch it.

"How to write?"

"Quills, branches, and oracle pens can all be written. Writing lightly is sufficient. Tyrion Lannister took out the quill, unscrewed the lid, and placed the ink lightly on Her Majesty's right hand.

Daenerys picked up the quill and felt her excitement, a surprise and eye-opener gift for her, as she wrote her name and a long list of titles on the paper. The nib of the pen writes coherently and lightly on the paper, without a sense of clumsiness and condensation, which is very different from the thick and difficult parchment paper.

"Your Majesty, if this kind of paper were to be introduced all over the world, I think children from poor families would be able to buy very cheap books. If there is no war, you and I can make peace, and I hope to promote this paper to be marketed all over the world. ”

"Is it expensive?"

"Bark, trees, grass or bamboo. These things are common and not expensive. ”

"Is the process complicated?"

"Frustration, pounding, frying, baking, sifting, spreading, filtering, etc., is very simple when you are familiar with it. ”

"Your lady is a genius. ”

"Your Majesty, Lady Jenny also invented the submersible bend, a bend that can be used in the toilet to seal off the stench. Here are the drawings. Tyrion Lannister pulled out the blueprint of the Sinking Bend and spread it out in front of Daenerys.

Barristan, Jorah, Argo, Lacarlo, and others looked at each other, completely unaware of what these guys were negotiating. Isn't the negotiation a-for-tat bargain in the military?

Tyrion was a first-class eloquent, and Daenerys soon understood what the Sinkbend was and how to make it. This made her surprise even stronger.

The lady of the Magic Mountain is a genius inventor!

"Your Majesty, in the three cities of Slaver's Bay, you can use submersible bends to drain sewage, and there will be no more foul gas poured back into the room or the floor through the sewer pipe. Ordinary people can also live a clean and hygienic life like an aristocracy. Magic Mountain said.

Daenerys looked up at the Magic Mountain: "The Magic Mountain, are you here to talk about business, or are you here to talk about the military?"

"Business is military, Your Majesty, and I brought you Westerling noodles. This is the finest pasta made from the finest flour, with eggs, spices and snow salt, which His Majesty must have never tasted. ”

The magic mountain looked at him, and Aliane Martell took out a handful of Westerling noodles. The noodles are wrapped in white paper and tied with a golden ribbon in the middle.
