Chapter 389: The Accommodation Problem

Insufficient rooms.

Trivialities should not bother the commander-in-chief of the night watchman at all. But in reality, this problem is really not something that can be solved by a "mayor" in Yam District.

Because it is the guests, to be precise, the unexpected, who are responsible for the unexpected situation of the room shortage.

Caitlin Tully visited the grant with two young girls, a dozen guards and servants, though the main body was only three. The North has a tradition of respecting the Night's Watch, and since he was a night watchman, Egg has always been given a single room every time he visits Winterfell, without exception - even during Robert's visit to the North. The so-called reciprocating the peach, now that he has become the commander-in-chief, he also gives high-level reception to those who come from Winterfell: Mrs. Stark and her two girls each have a room, needless to say, and even the soldiers and servants with him, even if they can't afford to arrange a single room for each person, it is also a room for two or three people, everyone has a bed, and the treatment is no worse than that of the Crown Town Guard.

This time, Egger returned from King's Landing and brought back a new subordinate and two groups of guests: Coburn could arrange for a firemancer to live with him, which was not a problem; Blacksmith Tob Mott, as an invited master craftsman, even if he did not arrange a single room, at most let him live with his assistant, and Iger couldn't open his mouth; and the Earl of Black Harbor and Thoros, although they took the initiative to help, were after all a nobleman, a priest, plus three followers, at least two small rooms or a large room......

Now the fact is that Egger is trying to treat his guests well with good intentions, but the Inner Fort of Houguan Town is not as large and has many rooms as Winterfell. Coming and going, the guest room in the inner fort of Houguan Town was really full.

And that's just the status quo, as soon as the alarm of a strange ghost strikes and all production in the industrial zone stops, at least thirty or forty technical backbones and managers on the list will also move into the inner fort to be protected at the highest level: some of them are craftsmen hired by the logistics department from all over the seven countries, and some are talents trained by Egger himself. They were untrained, and their contracts didn't include "helping the Night's Watch fight the Strangers", and Iger wouldn't let them go until the last resort, even if they wanted to.

If you don't want these guests and subordinates who are of great value to you to live in the warehouse, the inner fort has to spare at least five or six rooms to ensure that you don't have to rush to play when it matters most.

However, as the leader of the Night's Watch industry and one of the important managers of Houguan Town, Yam's accommodation arrangements for these guests are not low, although his rank within the organization is not low, but after all, he is only a "steward" rather than a "master", and he is not qualified to make changes on his own.

That's the real reason why Yamm wants to report the lack of rooms to Egger: just like "Visiting Queen Targaryen to show neutrality" must be done by Iger and not let Nina do it for him, the same thing, the identity of the person who does it changes, and the nature is completely different- As the Commander-in-Chief of the Night's Watch and the Lord of the Lands, a figure of great standing throughout the Seven Kingdoms, he personally explained the lack of rooms in Houguan Town and coordinated accommodation arrangements, whether it was Arya and Messira and the soldiers of Winterfell, or the Earls of Black Harbor and Thoros...... Freeing up a few rooms is just a matter of words. On the other hand, if Yamm jumped out without a name and said, "I'm sorry we don't have enough rooms, so we can't squeeze the guests...... That would be a great faux pas.

***

Leaving the conference room, Egg glared at Arya angrily: "You stinky girl, did you deliberately say that you wanted to fix me in the conference room just now?

"I didn't have ...... I see that your room is not enough, take the initiative to let one out, you don't praise me for being sensible, and you murder me!"

"Okay, just because I don't know the hearts of good people. She didn't admit it, and Egger couldn't really pursue it, "Look at what I told you before, isn't it even starting to get nervous about the place to sleep? ”

"She's gone to the Long Night Castle, she's been gone for days, and I don't know when she'll be back, so I'll stay with Bran. ”

Egstrong suppressed his head-scratching irritability: he actually wanted Catelyn and the others of Winterfell to leave the Grant and return to the North as soon as possible, not only did they not help him at the Wall, but they also needed the Night's Watch to take the trouble to settle and protect ...... It's a pity that when this is said, it becomes an eviction order.

"Where's Maeve, take me to her. Since you're willing to take the initiative to get out of the room, I'll let her move out and sleep with you, okay?"

The two girls lived together to make room for a room, and a few Winterfell soldiers squeezed together to make room for another...... After coordinating with the management of Houguan Town, who are qualified to live in a single room, the problem can be solved quickly, and after a little thought, Egger has a rough plan.

Arya naturally had no opinion: "Okay, it's a bit of a waste to let me sleep alone in such a big room." Maeve ...... She must be playing with Tommen now...... Hey, let me say that she and her brother really had the wrong sex, Tomman should be a girl, Maeve should be a boy, they are more or less brother and sister. A boy who has to take care of everything with his sister, and he doesn't like to ride horses and shoot arrows, but loves to play with kittens, hey-"

"Hey, hey, it's normal to love dancing and swords like you, right!" If this girl hadn't mentioned it herself, Egg would have almost forgotten that she wanted to teach her a lesson with Arya, "Okay, there's no one else here now—why are you standing so far away, come here." Explain to me: What do you think about going sword training with Asha Greyjoy?"

The girl reluctantly approached him, looking like a child who had made a mistake for fear of being beaten: "What are you doing...... Isn't it just a normal exchange, what's all the fuss about!"

"What a normal fight, I'm writing to tell Lady Caitlyn now—her daughter is playing swordsmanship with the daughter of the Greyjoy family in Houguan Town, and what do you think she'll do?"

I'm going to be furious, and I'm going to take myself back to Winterfell right away, and I'll never let her come over again. Arya suddenly became nervous: "Don't you, master! it's all her...... She came to me, and I practiced my sword with a couple of night watchmen, Asha—she just stood by and watched, and then said that there was something wrong with me, and then that there was something wrong with me......"

"And then you're angry, let her beep less and practice?"

"How do you know...... No!" Arya is not stupid at all, she changed her mind and put all the blame on others, "Asha deliberately provoked me to say: she can easily beat me with an anklet to the point where I can't find Bei. I'm not convinced...... And then, and then it became what it is today. ”

"How long has it been?"

"It didn't take long...... It's the second or third time today, and it's too coincidental for you to come back!"

Not even a liar, Iger rolled his eyes. They all affectionately called "Asha", and they must have been talking to each other after Caitlyn left, I don't know how many times, maybe they all made friends. Arya dares to make friends with anyone, sometimes it's a plus, sometimes it's dangerous!

But looking back, Iger knew that he might have overreacted...... Judging from the brief relationship, the daughter of the sea monster is not a hot-tempered and brainless person, and it is unlikely that she would do something stupid to hurt Arya just for the sake of the moment. Most of the time they were just bored and trying to create more opportunities to get out through Miss Stark's line.

It's like trying to make friends with Tyrion in the first place.

However, understanding is understanding, but whether or not you can accept it is another matter. As long as there is a risk that can be avoided, even if it is only a little bit, Egger will never be careless: "If someone provokes you, you will have to do something with them? What if she is unkind and hides evil intentions?"

"She didn't mean anything, we just had a pure-skill exchange and exchange!"

Puff - pure technical exchange and exchange...... It was the first time that Egger had heard the bear child talk about death so high-soundingly, and he was immediately amused by her serious, middle two breathing tone, and shook his head, "Forget it, whatever you say." I am now officially informing you that this kind of exchange and exchange will not happen again, understand?"

"Master~"

"It's not negotiable! Once discovered, your new friend will be permanently disqualified from leaving the cell for ventilation, and the second time you will be discovered, inform your mother. Egger was resolute, "Also, the outer city has been crowded lately, and you are not allowed to leave the Inner Fort without my permission." ”

"Hmm-" Arya clutched her chest as if she had been stabbed, making a pained expression, "People just want someone of the same level and patience to accompany me to practice swords, and if you refuse to accompany me, forget it, I found someone myself, and you don't agree...... Now I won't even be allowed to leave the castle, whether am I your apprentice or a prisoner, you can just put me in a dungeon!

"Okay, don't scream, I want to keep an eye on you because I care about you. Well...... I apologize for having to leave a while ago, and I'll take time to show you around and see interesting things in the next two days, okay. ”

"Hmph, that's pretty much it. Arya was originally a little unhappy because she was forbidden to practice swords, but when she heard this, she was a little inexplicably happy, and put it on and silently grabbed Egg's arm, "Hey, master, did you see the Mad King's daughter on this trip to King's Landing, she really has three dragons?" Also, is she really as beautiful as the rumors say?"

"Dragon, I didn't see you when I went. Iger replied with a smile, "As for the people......

As for people, not only is it beautiful, Daenerys's magical temperament makes Egger's impression unforgettable. With the strong attraction that is inextricable from the world's face, and the inexplicable majesty that makes people's knees weak, every smile, word and deed, obviously only seen once, but it seems to be as clear and memorable as it is imprinted in the mind...... Just thinking about it, Egg can remember the horror of the first sight of her, his heart pounding and blood flow faster.

If he hadn't known that he had crossed into a world of ice and fire, he would almost certainly have been seduced by the Demon of Lust. Egger had to use a lot of self-control to keep himself from thinking about her all the time. Arya asked, and Daenerys's figure and smile suddenly appeared in front of him.

"It's beautiful, indeed, but 'the most beautiful woman in the world' is an exaggeration. Iger controlled his emotions so that the rise and fall of his chest would not be too violent for the girl to notice, "Don't mention anything else, at least my Arya is not inferior to her......"

"Cut, you coax me again. Arya didn't notice anything unusual, and smacked him and giggled.

"I know I'm coaxing you and you're still laughing so happily, you can't find an opponent on the road of narcissism. Egger laughed too, rubbing her hair, and forcibly shook off the Queen's face from his mind, "Let's go, take me to your mother's guards, I need to discuss lodging with them." ”
