Chapter 0020 - Knighthood
To steal gold mines, or to dig gold mines, you need people first, and money second.
Gregor has no one and no money.
As long as there is money, people are not a problem, so in the final analysis, there is still a lack of money.
Gregor looked at Ado Charlotte who was drinking with Sweet-Mouthed Raff, who was loved by the nobles and Lord Tywin.
There is an idiom in Chinese civilization - thousands of wears, sycophants do not wear - the meaning of the idiom is also adapted to the civilization of this world.
It's just slightly inappropriate that Sweetmouth Raff's identity is a civilian.
Gregor decides to reuse Sweetmouth Raff, to use his mouth ability to socialize with the nobles, and in the future, he will also need Sweetmouth Raff's mouth to work the way to make money and build power.
In my previous life, I was an intern in college as a salesman, and the company manager liked to emphasize the most at the morning meeting, which was marketing ability. There are two levels of marketing ability, one is low-level, selling products, and the other is high-level, selling oneself. Sweet-mouthed Raff was born with an advanced level of 'marketing ability': selling himself.
Gregor does what he thinks of, never procrastinating.
He's a wicked man, a scoundrel, a bad guy. One of the great benefits of these labels is that bad people do things without scruples.
Gregor stood up, too tall and too strong, like a god.
"Thomas Man, go get my sword. ”
"Yes, my lord!" Thomas Mann respectfully said.
And the people who were drinking wine and eating meat were terrified.
Addo Chariot's face changed even more.
He was afraid of Gregor, and he didn't want to die. He looked at Sweetmouth Raff with a pleading eye, hoping that Sweetmouth Raff would see the friendship that the two of them had built up by telling brothel anecdotes and singing lewd songs together, and say a kind word for him in front of Gregor.
Thomas Man brought the heavy greatsword, which was longer than the others, and he held it with great difficulty.
Gregor grabbed the two-meter-long giant sword with one hand: "Love, kneel." ”
Sweetmouth's full name is Raff, Raff is what everyone is used to, and he is a commoner without a surname. Having a name and no surname is common in this world, of course, only for commoners and poor people of low origin.
Raffard got up and got down on one knee.
"I now bestow upon you the honour of a knight, and ask Maester Harry and Ser Addo Chariot as witnesses. ”
Raffard was amazed and delighted, his chest felt like it was exploding, and he almost floated with joy.
Master Harry hurriedly stood up and hurried to get the scriptures.
The lord gave his subordinates knighthood, and there was a long knightly oath, and Gregor did not inform Harry beforehand, and Harry was unprepared.
Addo Chariot's heart fell to the ground, and his mood was relieved, and he found that his back was cold. His underwear was already wet with cold sweat.
The executioner Dunson, the notepad Mark, and the absolute die-hard fan Polyvier are all envious and jealous, and all three of them dream of one day being knighted by Lord Gregor, and they can be given knights by their super idol, which is the supreme glory, and they are even more eager for Lord Gregor to give them the last name: Clegane.
Gregor's four King Kongs do not have surnames, and they are all ordinary commoners. Although notepads can be used for simple calculations, literacy is also limited.

There is no ninety-nine multiplication formula in this world's civilization. It is another calculation method that is completely different from the ninety-nine multiplication table.
For the first time, Gregor saw the mathematics of calculations by calculating the intersection of horizontal and vertical lines.
For example, 11 times 11, first draw a vertical line to represent the ten-digit number of the multiplier 1, then draw a parallel vertical line to represent the single digit of the multiplier 1, and then draw a horizontal line and two vertical lines to cross to get two points, this horizontal line represents the multiplied number of tens 1, and then draw a parallel horizontal line to represent the multiplied number of the single digit 1, the second horizontal line still intersects with two parallel vertical lines to get two points, through the intersection of the lower right corner of the number to obtain the single digit of the product 1, and then the point in the upper right corner plus the point in the lower left corner to get the number 1 of the product of the number 2, and the point in the upper left corner to get the number 1 on the hundredth of the product, and the sum gets 121。
With the various educations that the junior polytechnic dog received in the previous life Huaguo, he is in an absolute crushing position in some aspects of knowledge in this civilized world, and he can get a bachelor's necklace in the school city of the old town. For example, calculation, such as industrial machinery knowledge, such as physics knowledge and chemistry level, such as poetry and storytelling......

In the presence of Addo Chariot, and under the leadership of Master Harry, Gregor's sword rested on Sweet-Mouthed Raff's shoulder, and Gregor said a knight's oath, and Sweet-Mouthed Raff followed suit, and when the knight's oath was completed, Gregor's greatsword was on top of Sweet-Mouth's head, and he tapped his left and right shoulders and said, "Get up, Knight Ralph Clegane." ”
Sweet-mouthed Raff was stunned, incredulous.
He had the coveted Clegane surname.
Dunson, Mark, and Polliver all had a bang in their ears, and they were just as incredulous.
Lord Gregor not only bestowed on Sweetmouth the honor of being a knight, but also gave him the surname Clegane, which made them mad with jealousy.
And the words that have always been spoken with a sharp tongue are like sweet mouths smeared with honey, but Raff is stammering, but his heart is like exploding joy. For the sake of this honor and his surname, he willingly died a hundred times for Gregor.
"Congratulations, Sir Raff. Yadu Salot clapped his hands.
Harry the Bachelor, Julie the Girl, Thomas Mann, Dunson, Mark, and Polivier applaud together to congratulate Sweetmouth Ralph on becoming a Ralph Clegane Knight.
Sweetmouth Raff, like Ado, is a knight. The only difference is that Sweetmouth Raff is a proletarian knight, while Ado is a proletarian knight.
*
The higher the knight's rank, the more glorious it is to the person who is bestowed.
Gregor himself, who bestowed upon him the knighthood of the former dynasty, Prince Rhaegar Targaryen, was deliberately facilitated by Duke Tywin Lannister. There is no more honorable knight than the king.
Only a year later, Prince Rhaegar and Robert Baratheon fought in the Trident, and Robert killed Prince Rhaeggar, and Tywin of the West decided to side with the victors and led the Westside army to deceive King Elise Targaryen. The new king needed a good name to get on the throne in order to clean up Robert's dirty business, and with Tywin's acquiescence, Gregor killed Rhaegar Targaryen's infant son and raped the prince's wife.
Tywin Lannister himself gave up the opportunity to bestow Grego, and pushed Gregor to the prince Rhaegar to receive the knight's title, which also shows how much Tywin values his vicious dog.
*
Sweet-mouthed Raff's face turned red and his neck was bruised, and the excitement in his heart could not be described in words: "Lord Gregor, I, Sweet-mouthed Raff, once again swear allegiance to you in the name of the Seven Gods, the old and new gods, no matter what difficulties I encounter in the future, no matter how powerful the enemy I will face, even if the Silver Mountain collapses and the Sea of the Sunset dries up, my loyalty to the Lord will never change." In times of crisis, I will not hesitate to dedicate my life. ”
