On the other side of the Narrow Sea, there are nine free trade city-states, of which the city-state of Pantos is the closest free trade city-state to King's Landing.

Illyrio was the wealthy merchant governor of the city-state of Pantos.

He was in the business of spices, keels, precious stones, silk, etc., as well as some shady trades.

Unscrupulous business is the most lucrative to buy *** such as the slave trade, clandestine trafficking, and brokers between assassins and employers.

Illyrio is not short of money and is in a high position, but human desires are endless.

The mountain knew that Illyrio and Varys were conspiring and were bent on helping Targaryen return to the throne.

There's a piece of information that you don't know when you travel through the Magic Mountain: who is Varys's father, who is his mother, is he a civilian orphan or a person with an identity?

There is no clear disclosure of the Varys family in the original book, and some vague information is revealed, which is also very vague.

And the magic mountain excused the 'blood wizard' in order to make his 'prophet' reasonable. People would naturally think that what the Magic Mountain knew was because of the prophecy of the 'Blood Witch'.

Even so, there are a lot of things that the Magic Mountain can't know: for example, maybe it's not the simple Varys family. After making his fortune in Reese City, Varys came to Pantos City, where he became acquainted with the handsome and skilled mercenary Illyrio Mopatis, and the two worked together, one to spy on other people's secrets, and the other to sell secrets - the secrets of many governors, princes, and nobles were very valuable, and they were also willing to spend a lot of money to block the channels of dirty news, so Varys and Illyrio soon made a lot of money.

Illyrio, who had made a fortune, became the real governor of Pantos, and the eight-clawed spider, who was known for his establishment of the Little Mouse Organization that dotted the free city-states, was favored by Aerys Targaryen, King of Westeros, and hired as the country's Minister of Intelligence.

Neither King Aerys nor later King Robert knew where Varys' family came from, and no one cared about it, but the Magic Mountain wanted to know this, and he had some vague conjectures that came from some inconspicuous details of the original story he had read before the time travel.

Maybe the conjecture is far from the real situation, maybe it's just a little sideline, but in any case, a civilian boy can quickly and skillfully establish a little mouse organization spread across the nine free trade city-states, and this invisible hand has also reached Slave Bay in the Far East, the Jade Sea Island, and the big cities in the East farther away, no matter how you look at it, this is a miracle that Varys with the status of an ordinary person cannot accomplish at all.

Illyrio is not very curious about Illyrio, who is a mercenary who lives on a sword, later became an assassin, and then partnered with Varys, becoming the behind-the-scenes boss who sells the secrets of the big guys; for such a boss, it is not affordable to kill him, and his power is also in Pantos, and because of the war, Pantos and Braavos signed a peace agreement, and the price paid is that the city must not have its own armed forces.

If the city of Pantos was a mercenary, then the mercenary was forced to give up the right to own the sword because of the contract oath. What are you afraid of a mercenary who has no sword?

Illyrio's intelligence value is not very useful, but he is very, very, very rich.

This time he brought fifty little birds, as well as several boatloads of spices, precious stones, silk, and cloth sold to the nobles. The place where Illyrio trains the little birds was not built by him, but by Varys.

In this regard, Varys is an expert.

When the Magic Mountain said, 'I won't kill you, let's talk about the price.' When you think your hair, your beard, your eyes, your ears, and your hands are worth a dragon', Illyrio didn't show any frustration, he breathed a sigh of relief.

That's how he negotiated with others a lot of the time, and that's how he made a fortune. It's just that after making a fortune, Illyrio's body is getting bigger and bigger, people are getting fatter and fatter, his martial arts are getting worse and worse, and people have changed from fierce and fierce to hedonistic, greedy, lustful and cunning.

It's hard to say whether this is progress or regression.

But Magic Mountain doesn't care about that, he cares about how much money Illyrio can pay.

This time is different from the situation of breaking into Riverrun, going too far with Riverrun, it will lead to a civil war in advance, and force the king to side with the Tully family to deal with the Magic Mountain and the West, and it is still very taboo to cross the Magic Mountain. And for Illyrio, the Magic Mountain is not afraid of anything.

He can kill Illyrio without fear of causing a counterattack from any force.

Kill for nothing!

Illyrio's partner, Varys, has the ability to play in the little birdies, who are children who have never been trained in martial arts at all. Varys, who does not have military power, never pays attention to the Magic Mountain. Moreover, the Magic Mountain knows the secret of Varys, which has a crime called treason.

Illyrio was very cheerful: "Lord Count, I have a total of five ships of spices, precious stones, silk and cloth this time, and all the money and costs will be given to you." ”

"How much is it?"

"Plus my ten gemstone rings, about 120,000 golden dragons. Illyrio looked honest and began to remove ten rings on his ten fingers, including rubies, sapphires, emeralds, gold, and agate.

"One million golden dragons, pay off the money, and I'll let you go. Magic Mountain said lightly.

This price is a hundred times more than the money it took for the Tully family to redeem Riverrun. Duke Horst Tully of Riverrun redeemed Riverrun, but it was only 10,000 gold dragons.

Illyrio, Varys, Bernie, Angay, Julie, and the Clegane bandits are all stunned.

Illyrio smiled bitterly: "My lord, at your price, you need me to go back to Pantos City to sell my manor and castle, and some of the keels that have been in stock for many years." ”

Angay's heart moved when he heard the dragon bone, he knew that the dragon bone was the strongest, toughest, lightest, black because the dragon bone contained iron, the black dragon bone bow was a rare treasure, the least powerful but the longest, and it was also the legendary bow of the Dothraki cavalry on the other side of the Narrow Sea.

To make a keel bow, the first material you need is a keel.

An Gai moved, trying to interject for a keel long enough, but Moshan noticed An Gai's abnormal movement, and he raised his hand to stop An Gai's voice.

Now is a critical moment in the negotiations, and the Magic Mountain will not allow anyone to interject. Gotta let Illyrio know that the Magic Mountain is serious, and if he doesn't come up with this money, he will die.

"Then go sell it, collect the money, and I'll let you go back." Magic Mountain said lightly.

Illyrio's eyes looked at Varys.

Varys knew that Illyrio's savings were going to be emptied this time, but he was able to save his life. The Magic Mountain is going to cut down Illyrio, and if it is cut, it will be cut down, and no one can do anything about it, and they can't report to the king and the prime minister, and Varys himself has no power to restrain the Magic Mountain.

"Illyrio, pay the Earl 100,000 gold dragons first, and the rest 900,000, I will inform your butler as soon as possible to realize the belongings of Pantos's house, and then transport them over. ”

"It's going to take at least three months!" Illyrio felt the pain in his heart.

"I can wait three years!" Magic Mountain said lightly, "Ange and Julie, Bernie, brothers, you take Master Illyrio out, I still have something to say to Master Varys alone." ”

So, Illyrio was taken away, and the Magic Mountain and Varys came face to face.

"Give me a map of the underground passages of the Red Keep, Lord Varys. Magic Mountain stood up and stared at Varys condescendingly, like a hungry lion staring at a nimble but overly fat black goat.
