Chapter 0106: Twenty Years
"Jenny, you go out first, I'll talk to the bachelor. ”
"Yes, Father. ”
"The Magic Mountain has come back and asked him to come to me. ”
"Yes, Father. ”
Jenny curtsy and withdraws.
The door to the study closed softly again.
"Lord Duke, I'm afraid that the Demon Mountain will not be able to contain his temperament and hurt the nobles in the north. Maester Potter said.
Duke Tywin said lightly, "I'm afraid he won't hurt anyone." ”
"Oh, why did the Duke say that?"
The Duke did not answer.
Duke Tywin slowly took out from the drawer a map of the military sentry, a map of the manufacture of snow salt, chopsticks wrapped in red brocade, a picture of coinage, a picture of the machinery of the noodles, and a picture of the sinking bend.
The bachelor was amazed.
"Lord Duke, before this, Lord Gregor has already given you the coinage diagram and the mechanical diagram of the hanging noodles, and the sinking bend diagram?"
"I had these things long before Count Odd told me about the noodle machinery and the sinkhole. ”
The bachelor was silent for a long time.
Count Ode's 'advice' meant nothing to the Duke.
The Duke had long been aware of any move by Gregor Cregan, including the amazing inventions.
"Gregor gave it to me personally. The Duke said as he looked at the Bachelor's surprised expression.
"And he admits that he designed it?" the maester muttered. He found that he knew less than one percent of the Duke about Sir Gregor.
Duke Tywin didn't seem to hear the Bachelor's question, and if the Duke didn't want to answer, he directly ignored it: "Bachelor, the gold mines in the West won't be digging for long, if there are no gold mines in the West, what should the West do?" The Duke's hand picked up the snow salt process flow chart, "Snow salt can become the second gold mine in the West, but it's not enough." ”
The Bachelor nodded.
"The 'wood instead of iron' of chopsticks can effectively reduce the price of weapons and reduce the consumption of iron ore in the Iron Islands after three months, but the amount of iron ore we purchase can only increase, not decrease. ”
"Yes, we need to secretly reserve a lot of iron ore. ”
"The combination of military posts, war drums, and horns can increase the combat power of our legions in the western frontier and surpass our opponents in military warfare. Tywin said.
For the military bachelor is a layman, but he knows that the Duke is an outstanding military strategist, at the age of seventeen he became famous in the battle of the Nine Bronze Plate Kings in the Seven Kingdoms, and at the age of eighteen he destroyed the two most powerful nobles in the West, and killed them all, leaving no chickens and dogs.
"Yes, Duke. ”
"Somen can be sold in the Seven Kingdoms, and it can also be sold overseas, but this kind of high-end ingredient can only be used for nobles, and this benefit will be rewarded to Gregor and Earl Ode, and Castle Rock City only charges a certain amount of taxes. ”
"My lord is so decisive!"
"The sink bend only keeps our toilets from smelling, and once it spreads, everyone can imitate it, and the money from selling it is actually limited and completely negligible. ”
"Yes, Lord Duke. ”
"Coinage is one of the best ways to increase the wealth of the West. Duke Tywin finally picked up the coinage map that the Magic Mountain had given him, "When we run out of gold, the coins we mint are a gold mine that has been secretly hidden, and all of them are pure gold. Tywin looked at the coinage with an appreciative look in his eyes.
"Yes!" replied the Bachelor cautiously.
The coinage was secretly minted by the Magic Mountain, but the Duke had the meaning of appreciation, could it be that the Magic Mountain was not minting coins for himself, but also minting coins for the Duke?
This thought made the bachelor break out in a cold sweat.
The duke's crime of minting coins without permission can be big or small. The king is the duke's son-in-law, the queen is his daughter, the prince and the princess are his grandsons, and behind closed doors, everyone is a family.
But the Duke clearly told Jane that he didn't know about the coinage of the Magic Mountain.
If the coinage conspiracy is revealed, there will only be one person to be held accountable: the Magic Mountain!
The answer is obvious!
The bachelor was in a cold sweat again.
He has served the Duke for decades, and has always had an indelible awe of the Duke, respect is respect, and fear is fear.
"But these are trails. The Duke's face was lonely, "The Lannister family has been inherited for thousands of years, and when the gold mine is hollowed out, the Lannister must find another way to survive. Otherwise, how can it continue to be passed down for thousands of years? The name of the Lannister is a thousand times more important than my life Tywin. The Duke's eyes suddenly fell on the Bachelor's face, "Master Potter, do you have any good ideas?"
Maester Potter was at a loss.
He didn't have a good idea at all.
It wasn't for the Duke himself who said that the gold mines wouldn't be mined for many years, and he didn't even realize the problem.
Every month, the wagons of the gold mines handed over to King's Landing drove along the Golden Avenue into the King's Mint, and who would have thought that this was the last glory of the West?
"My lord, I have no idea about the future of the West. Potter admitted, honestly afraid.
Lying in front of the duke is almost like looking for death. The duke's eyes are sharp, and no one can see people and things.
Suddenly, the Bachelor understood why Sir Gregor would tell the Duke any of his secrets. He also suddenly understood why the Demon Mountain, the chief evil of the Seven Kingdoms, could comfortably do evil things by the side of such a shrewd and ruthless duke.
Everything about Gregor is never a secret to the Duke.
From the time Gregor began to follow the Duke at the age of twelve, for twenty years now, he has never kept any secrets from the Duke.
The people who thought that Gregor had secrets, and the people who made small reports in front of the duke, were all coldly looked at by the duke. They secretly spoke ill of Gregor in front of the Duke behind his back, but each time, the Duke nodded his head to indicate that he understood. It turned out that the Duke himself knew more, deeper, and more thoroughly than these people said.
To bring down Sir Gregor in front of the Duke is impossible with any slander. Unless it's the Duke himself who wants to destroy the Demon Mountain.
Now that the Demon Mountain has suddenly opened up its wisdom and won the favor of the Seven Gods, his series of contributions have given a new dawn to the Duke, making the anxious Duke Tywin think of the future path of the Western Realm.
Fellow felt something faintly about it, but he wasn't sure if it was right or not.
He only understood one thing: don't say anything bad about Sir Gregor in front of the Duke in the future, anything!
There was a very deep and special bond between the Magic Mountain and the Duke that outsiders had not yet understood, and this special bond was different from the relationship between Tywin and anyone else.
Thinking through this, the bachelor suddenly understood what the Duke had said earlier, 'I'm afraid that he won't hurt anyone'.
The Magic Mountain, which is full of wisdom, does not change its viciousness, and is hated by the nobles, perhaps, it is exactly what the Duke wants more.
