Carlin Bay.

A few young aristocrats were boredly teasing the lizard lions unique to Neck.

"I heard that Jones guy has been doing a lot in Riverlands lately?" said Toruń, the second son of the Castellan family, with sudden excitement.

"There's all sorts of news," Toruń's brother Ed said hurriedly.

He and Toren were the first to invite Jones to drink, and they were both the second sons of the family, so they subconsciously regarded Jones as their own.

"Not to mention Jones' 800 cavalry that killed Bamvert, it's said that he defeated the terrifying Magic Mountain later," Ed continued.

"Others say that Jones had killed the Magic Mountain and hung that one's head on a gun. ”

"It's really good to blow, why don't you say that he killed the monarch killer. Jon rudely interrupted the two Stark brothers' teasing.

"Little Jon, we can all understand your feelings. "Your brother has made a name for himself, and you can only tease the lion here." ”

"You...... , I won't say much to you, anyway, I'm going to leave soon, and when I get to Riverrun, I can tell who the real warrior is. Jon Jon said unconvinced.

......

"Is that big man really so powerful, so he looks down on a woman arrogantly?" Daisy, the heir of Bear Island, thought as she listened absentmindedly to them, "It's a pity I can't go to Riverrun to see what he's proud of." ”

"By the way, little Jon, do you know why the Frey family joined us in the north again this time? My father has scolded the Frey family many times in private. Harrion Karstark asked.

"I don't know, but after Lady Catlyn went on a trip, they not only agreed to allow us to cross the bridge, but also sent troops to join the North, so that our chances of victory would be greater. ”

"Mormont, are you so disappointed because you can't fight with the young wolf lord like we do?" Toren asked curiously, seeing Daisy silent.

This time, the northern army will split into two routes, and almost all the cavalry will follow Robb to Riverrun. Most of the infantry would be commanded by Luce Bolton, holding back Duke Tywin to the east as he continued north.

"You—are you really going to fight, not dragging your feet?" Daisy, interrupted by his thoughts, replied with an unhappy look on her face.

Toruń's face was flushed by her excitement, and he was about to fight back, but he was quickly dragged aside by his brother Ed.

......

"Don't you know? Never think about a woman on Bear Island, unless you can beat her. Can you beat her?"

"I can't beat it," Toren said frustratedly.

"That's it, who told you to mess with her. ”

"I'm just asking. Toruń said aggrievedly.

"Don't you see that people don't talk to Mormont very much?"

"yes, it seems to be true, you said that Daisy is very tall, but she looks good, why don't you talk to her so much?"

"It is said that if you want to communicate with her, you must first resist her poisonous tongue, and not only her poisonous tongue, but also several of their sisters, even her youngest sister, who is seven or eight years old. ”

"What kind of people are in this family. Toruń complained.

The little Lori Lyanna Mormont, who was far away on Bear Island, held her cheeks boredly with one hand, looked at the bright moon in the night sky, and said to herself, "I don't know if my sister is thinking about Lyanna now, Lyanna misses her sister very much." ”

......

White Harbor,

Known as the "mouth of the north", it is the most important trading port city in the north and the largest residential area north of the neck.

It's not a day's journey from Carlin Bay to White Harbor, and Joaquin has been going back and forth these days.

The harbor was busy at this time, with a large number of sailors carrying at each wharf, many of them for supplies to the army of the North.

Fishing boats, sturdy armed merchant ships, and broad-bottomed cargo ships lined the shore, but there were only two warships, and they were all in tatters.

Joaquin looked back and forth in the harbor several times, and still shook his head with some disgust, the ships here were really not as many as those in his native free trade city-state.

But before leaving, Jones explained that he had to get a merchant ship that could sail by sea, and even the name had been given, and it was still a woman's name, called "Black Pearl".

Joaquin couldn't understand it, but he could only do it. He observed that Jones had the idea of a ship on his way back to Winterfell from Schooltown.

As for why, Joaquin suspected that Jones was preparing to flee for his life, and of course, a smart person would not tell the truth.

So these days, Joaquin is taking care of the wounded and getting them to spread the word 'magic potion' among the soldiers in the North, while he is here to find a suitable merchant ship for Jones.

......

"Have you found it? You said how many days you've been watching. If that doesn't work, we'll grab one in a few nights. The black light blinded, cut the necks of those crew members, and threw them into the sea. The guy from the Burning Department said impatiently, smelling the fishy smell and the pungent saltiness of the ocean.

"Do you think you're robbing in the mountains? This is the seaside, this is the territory of the Mandalay family. If it weren't for the aristocratic ties of the north, we would have been arrested as spies after walking around the harbor just now. And kill people and hijack ships? Guess the thousands of soldiers in Mandalay will chop you into meat sauce?" Jorkin said quickly with a foaming mouth.

These people from the Scorching Department made him angry, saying that they were here to help him, but the fighting and brawling had not stopped for the past few days, and if he hadn't seen that these people had been sent by Jones to supervise him, he would have really wanted to drive them away.

As for supervising Jones and these people, he felt that it was understandable, and the other party's more than 1,000 golden dragons were all in his hands.

If this money is used to buy murder, it is basically enough to kill someone like him a hundred times, or even more.

If there were really no people from the Scorching Ministry, he wouldn't have stolen the money and run away, he couldn't say for sure.

"Then what do you say? You can't blow the sea breeze here every day. The guy from the Scorching Department said with an unhappy face, this stranger is really troublesome.

Joaquin ignored him, but carefully observed the length and width of each merchant ship, the material of wood, the size and number of masts, and finally pointed to a big-bellied merchant ship and said, "Let's go and ask the price of that merchant ship." ”

"Hey, I don't know if it's enough to leave me more than a thousand golden dragons. ”

Qiao Jin also has no bottom in his heart, needless to say, the price of large longship warships is more than five thousand gold dragons, and it can be seen from the fact that there are only two warships in the entire White Harbor, and the merchant ships that can sail are also expensive, often more than a thousand gold dragons.

"I still don't have any money!"
