Thin white salt slipped from Tywin's fingers.

Very beautiful grains of salt.

It is different from the salt grains that are usually used to eating and seeing: the usual salt grains are coarse, yellowish, and sometimes there is some bitterness in the salt.

Tywin's fingers were stained with salt, as fine as sand and as white as snow.

His fingers were sticky to his lips, salty and delicious.

A packet of fine white salt without the slightest bitterness. Crystal clear, never seen before.

The price of salt is very expensive for ordinary people, and poor families eat less salt and cannot afford it. Salt is extremely profitable, but for the West, which is rich in gold and silver mines, it is naturally less profitable to dig salt to produce salt than to produce gold and silver mines.

The famous Golden Mile, which starts at the Lion's Mouth in Castle Rock and ends in King's Landing, the capital of the Seven Kingdoms, was dedicated to transporting gold and silver mines to King's Landing's mint. At the end of each month, the wagons and ox carts of the gold and silver mines fill the entire avenue, front and back, and there is an endless stream. The wagons and ox carts of the major families in the west are all on the road of the Golden Avenue, and what is pulled out is the mine, and what is pulled back is the golden dragon and the silver deer.

"Go to the kitchen and tell the chef to use this snow salt for cooking today. ”

"Yes, sir. ”

Master Potter carefully wrapped the salt.

There is a popular saying about salt among the people: salt is as expensive as gold.

Expensive not only refers to the high price, but also refers to the scarcity of goods.

Master Potter carefully wrapped the snow-white salt and covered it with a brocade box.

"Where did the snow salt come from?"

As white as snow, Tywin casually gave the salt a name: Snow Salt.

"Maester Harry wrote to me that Sir Gregor had inadvertently made it. ”

"Oh!" Tywin said casually.

Master Potter walked briskly out. He couldn't smell the blood in the room or the commotion of animal fur and flesh.

The air in the slaughterhouse smelled weird and bad because of the long killing of beasts and domestic animals, which made it difficult for Master Potter to come in every time.

"Master Potter. Tywin said. He wiped his hands very carefully, and then trimmed his nails very carefully.

Duke Tywin is a skilled slacker at slaughtering beasts and livestock, and he loves to do it.

The best butcher among the servants could not match his skinning skills.

"Send two letters from Gregor to Tiger Chariot in King's Landing. ”

"Yes, sir!"

"Tell Tiger that it's time for him to take care of his sons. ”

"Yes, sir. ”

King's Landing, the capital of the Seven Kingdoms.

The castle where the king lived, the Red Keep on the high hill of Aegon.

The Red Fort is surrounded on three sides by cliffs that cannot be climbed, and there is only one northern gate to enter and exit.

The Red Fort got its name from the tall walls made of red rock.

On both sides of the gate of the Red Fort are the left and right military camps responsible for guarding functions.

Next to the barracks on the right, there is a neat row of stone houses, where the royal courtiers lived.

There is also a neat row of stone houses next to the barracks on the left, where the nobles from all over the Seven Kingdoms came to King's Landing to do business.

King Robert Baratheon decided to head north to Winterfell to visit his brother Lord Eddard Stark, whom he had not seen for more than a decade, and invited the stubborn Eddard Stark to come out and be his prime minister, the hand of the king over ten thousand people.

Knowing Eddard Stark's indifferent nature of fame and fortune, the king had to invite him personally. Eddard is a frozen stone in the North that cannot be summoned with a single raven, and the king and Eddard grew up together in the Arryn Valley, and their relationship is greater than that of their own brothers, and the late King's Prime Minister Jon Arryn is their common adoptive father.

King Robert was a man of ostentatious and pomp, and in addition to the royal courtiers, the great lords of various places also received his raven letters, ordering them to send their nobles to follow him north.

In addition to the Dorn Territory thousands of miles away at the southernmost tip of the kingdom, the Iron Islands in the Sea of Sunset, and the destination this time, the northernmost northern frontier of the kingdom, the rest of the subordinate countries, in order of south to north, are: the High Court Tyrells of the Riverlands, the Baratheon family of Stormrest, the king himself and the royal courtiers of the royal realm, the Lannisters of Castle Rock City in the West, the Arryn family of the Eagle's Nest City in the Vale, and the Tully family of Riverrun City in the Riverlands, all received the king's raven orders- The king ordered them to send his nobles to follow him north. The greater the number of people, the greater the carriage, the greater the pomp, and the livelier the scene, the more satisfied, happier, and happier King Robert Baratheon became.

Tiger Chariot was sent by Tywin Lannister of Castle Rock in the West to deal with King Robert's orders.

King Robert Baratheon was the son-in-law of Tywin Lannister. Cersei Lannister, the queen of the kingdom, is the eldest daughter of Duke Tywin.

Tiger Chariot, who represents the nobles of the West, has the unique opportunity to go north with the king this time, which is a great honor for the Chariot family. Tiger Chariot was happy, he felt the glory of the supreme one.

Tomorrow, a mighty troop of men and horses will leave King's Landing and head north to Winterfell, which should have been a very happy thing, but Tiger Charlott is frowning, like pins and needles.

He had just received two letters.

The letters were sent from Castle Rock in the West, and the two letters were not addressed to him by Duke Tywin, but by Ser Gregor of the Magic Mountain addressed to Lord Tywin. Lord Tywin forwarded two letters from Sir Gregor to Tiger, but Tywin did not write to Tiger, but Fellow University added a sentence in the space to Gregor's letter: Lord Tywin, Lord Tywin told me that he thought it was time for you to take charge of your son.

It's this sentence that is more heart-wrenching than Tiger losing Alvar Charlotte.

In Westeros, the sons of the family are not entitled to inherit or distribute any of the family's property, except for the heirs of the family. How much they can get depends on the mood of the patriarch himself. All the wealth and territories of the family belong exclusively to the heirs of the family, which is determined by the laws and traditions of the Seven Kingdoms. However, laws and traditions could not prohibit the conflict of interests between brothers. Some brothers killed their elder brother and became heirs themselves. In order to consolidate their heir status, some brothers choose to kill their brothers.

These extremes are rare, though.

Tygo's seven sons, except for the eldest Ado Chariot, who is very important to the family, the rest of the sons are all going to run their own lives in the future, which is why many of the sons of the great nobles choose to be mercenaries, and some even choose to join the Night's Watch of the Desperate Wall in order to avoid the open and secret battles for the interests of the family. For example, Sir Weimar Royce, the youngest son of the great nobleman of the Vale, Jon Royce.

Who is Weimar Royce?

It's the arrogant captain of the opening trio in the first episode of Game of Thrones, who insists on checking on the killing of the wildlings despite the advice of his two subordinates, and then is the first boy Ranger to be clicked by the stranger.

In this world, the lives of children who are not the heirs of the family are not particularly important to the entire family in key matters.

Tiger came to King's Landing, the youngest son Alva and his men robbed the daughter of the Magic Mountain and raped him in the mines, and then the Demon Mountain got angry and came to the door to find trouble, these things are not important, the important thing is that the actions of the Charlotte family offended the authority of Duke Tywin.

Gregor's coarse man knew that two letters in a row had reported the matter to Duke Tywin, and none of the six sons of the Chariot family reported the matter to Duke Tywin, and they did not inform Earl Tywin, and directly designed a bloody settlement in private, which violated Duke Tywin's taboo.

Moreover, the Magic Mountain is Tywin's dog, and the Greot family didn't give the owner face by killing the dog at all, and they didn't bother to inform the owner, which was a very stupid decision.
