On the day of the opening of the Federal International Bank of Westeros, almost all the nobles and wealthy merchants on the entire continent rushed to the scene as much as possible to congratulate them.

No way, in the past few months, it seems that only King's Landing is changing.

But in fact, there are many changes in various places in the entire Westeros continent, either overtly or covertly, and the most frightening of them are various "accidents".

According to the private statistics of a well-wisher with some status and strength, in the past few months, the entire Westeros continent has died in at least three digits due to various accidents.

It is no longer uncommon to die by being bitten to death by a fierce beast while hunting, accidentally falling to death while riding a horse, being hit and killed by a carriage out of control, and suddenly dying from a sudden illness.

According to the various ways of death in the statistics, the most aggrieved way to die is to accidentally choke to death while eating or accidentally choking to death when drinking.

The most "popular" way to die is to die when rolling the sheets with a woman.

The most painless way to die is to fall asleep and die quietly.

Well, for those unlucky people, it doesn't matter if it's the most aggrieved way to die, or the most "popular" way to die, or the most painless way to die, it's definitely not a good thing.

In fact, with the size and population of the continent of Westeros, there is no day when people will not die, and it is not without death caused by various accidents.

But the point is that a large number of people who have died due to various accidents in the past few months are either nobles or wealthy businessmen, or high-level executives of a certain organization.

Just one or two or ten or eight of them will not attract much attention. After all, accidents can happen at any time in life.

But a triple-digit mortality rate is obviously not a normal thing, let alone the fact that almost all of these people can threaten the reign of Robert Baratheon. Either it is intended to hinder the implementation of the New Deal.

Such obvious commonalities appear in different dead people, but anyone with a little brain can see that this mass accidental death incident is absolutely, absolutely, absolutely not simple.

But it didn't work!

Even if someone finds out that it's not easy. It's probably related to a popular figure in front of a certain king, but so what?

It's not like no one has ever done such a thing as assassination, but what is the result?

The deceased, who was supposed to commit suicide after the matter was revealed, appeared directly in court as a witness to accuse the instigator.

It didn't take long for the next day for a hundred horsemen to appear on the commander's territory.

Then, there is nothing more.

Liu Ruian, who didn't let the hundred knights make a move at all, just threw it out with a spell.

After the earth shook and the mountains shook, whether it was a building or a person, it was all ashes.

Such a ruthless means. For those "lucky people" who haven't had time to do it, it's not a fright but a horror!

It is precisely because of these scary speculations that all the territories on the entire continent of Westeros have expressed sufficient support for the new policy of the capital's King's Landing.

Fortunately, Liu Ruian was not stupid enough to slap people, and the necessary "sweet dates" were soon sent out.

Since the harvest time of high-yield wheat has not yet arrived, many people still have reservations about this "sweet jujube".

However, the establishment of the Federal Exploration Agency of Westeros quickly made the dukes and the nobles who owned the territory extremely enthusiastic.

No way, the climate of Westeros is indeed not very good, far less pleasant than that of Essos.

However, the minerals on this continent are extremely rich, at least under Liu Rui'an's exploration, many valuable minerals have been discovered.

The most common are metallic minerals such as copper and iron. The most valuable ones are, of course, gold, silver, and gem mines.

The problem is that the minerals that are easy to find in Liu Rui'an's opinion are quite difficult for the Tu people in this world.

The open-pit mines, which are obvious and easy to mine, are not only remotely located, but also poor. Almost all of them have already been occupied.

When the dukes and nobles found out that the Westeros Federal Exploration Agency was able to find all kinds of ore veins with incredible accuracy, it would be really brainless to see the benefits inside.

Of course. Sweet dates are to be sent, but how to send them is another matter.

It's not. For those requests from dukes and nobles to invite the Federal Exploration Bureau of Westeros to their territory in search of ore veins, Ryan Liu did not allow them without any conditions.

I want someone to find you a mine. Wide! However, the cost of prospecting is at your own expense.

At the same time, if the vein is found, half of the entire vein production will be nationalized.

And that's not all, you'll have to pay taxes on the remaining half.

After all, the entire continent of Westeros belongs to His Majesty King Robert Baratheon, and if you are given the right to mine and a certain amount of income, you can steal the fun.

As for how much this tax will be collected, don't worry, it depends on what mines are happening over there.

The specific tax rate will be directly linked to the specific mineral, in a word, the more valuable the mineral, the higher the tax rate.

What's the horse? You say such unequal conditions of cooperation, who would want to?

In fact, on the contrary, after these conditions were announced one by one, the enthusiasm of those dukes and nobles did not diminish in the slightest.

Just kidding, even if more than half of the veins produced have to be handed over to the state, don't forget.

If it weren't for the Westeros Federal Exploration Agency, there wouldn't be even the remaining half.

Of course, if it were in the past, these dukes and nobles would definitely not agree to such harsh conditions so easily.

But now it's different, Robert Baratheon's prestige is increasing day by day, no, it should be skyrocketing.

Under such a general trend, who can and who dares to do it.

Even if you still have some ideas, you have to find the right opportunity.

On the day of the opening of the Federal International Bank of Westeros, tens of millions of new currencies were exchanged for the official issuance of the bank.

Don't think it's too high, there's more to the new currency than just gold.

For ordinary people, copper coins are the most commonly used currency in daily life, and even many places still maintain the custom of bartering.

Those who were able to use silver coins were either merchants or wealthy people from well-to-do families.

As for gold coins, they are basically only available to nobles and wealthy people.

Nearly half of the tens of millions of new currencies that were exchanged were copper coins.

Silver and gold coins were basically exchanged by the nobles to show their loyalty, or for some other purpose.

Thanks to Liu Rui'an, he not only found several large-scale gold, silver and copper mines before, but also combined the power of the scientific and technological side and the mysterious side to create a special "fool-type" minting production line.

Raw materials such as gold, silver, and copper are simply thrown into the port, and a flood of new money will pour out of the exit. (To be continued.) )
