"It's big enough, but what are you going to do?"

Tyrion was led astray again in a daze, and though he intuitively felt that Egg was talking gibberish and whimsical, memories and experience told him that the last time he felt this way, Egg had finally put the cash flow of the bonds into action and built an unprecedented Night's Watch industry. With the experience gained from managing and running this "company", he was able to set up a bank in the Westland when he returned to Lannisport...... What if this time, he can really put all his bold words into practice?

"Set a small goal first, and unite Westeros for the Queen. Iger held out a finger and finally got a chance to throw a second bait, "You played a joke on me when you were at Castle Black years ago—you said you wanted to take me to your old son and tell him that there were so many benefits to choosing a dwarf as an heir, so that he could pass on the city of Castle Rock to you." Remember?"

Tyrion's eyes widened, "Remember, you mean ......"

"That's right. Egg raised his head, "Now I probably have a real reason to let him pass on the Lannister family patriarch to you." ”

"Doing great things and making a name for yourself" is the superpie or long-term goal for Tyrion, while "Guardian of the West, the Duke's Throne, and Castle Rock" is a practical benefit that can be obtained by the other party right away...... These two tricks go hand in hand, and there is no fear that the other party will not be impressed.

Tyrion's mouth was still slightly open at the first shock of the news, and the night watchman on the other side continued without stopping.

"It took me a long time to convince Your Majesty to let Jaime, who was already dressed in black, live, and allow the Lannisters to survive. But there is one thing she is determined to hold on to, and that is that your father, Duke Tywin, who was King Aerys Prime Minister but ultimately betrayed the Targaryens and dealt the final blow to the latter, must step down and stay away from the center of power...... And the new guardian of the West must be served by someone who has not participated in the war of the Raiders, and has never stained the blood of the Targaryen family. ”

There was no doubt that Tyrion was meeting the demand, but Egg took a breath and still hadn't finished casting the bait.

"In addition to being the ruler of the West, the position of Chancellor of the Exchequer in the Imperial Council also awaits you. After all, only the governor of Lannister Bank has the amount of gold he controls, the financial means and experience he has, and the connections and connections he has...... Coupled with the noble status of the Duke of Kaiyan City, it is enough to convince the public and appease anyone's opposition, and sit firmly on that important chair for a long time. The advanced skills and knowledge I possess can only be turned into reality with the vast wealth of the West, and the full cooperation and support of a strong and long-serving Chancellor of the Exchequer. ”

Egger stretched out his right arm, crossed the table between them, and handed his fist to the dwarf.

"How's it going, brother, do you want to join the gang?"

Obviously came to talk about the conditions of surrender, why was he inexplicably dragged into the gang to do big things?

Tyrion looked distressed.

The first thing he understood was that Egger was asking, but he had no intention of accepting a rejection.

Then there is a sober realization that with so many rewards and benefits, the price to be paid or the task to be completed may be huge and difficult to the point of appalling.

This little night watchman who once even needed to be rescued himself to leave the Great Wall has grown to such a powerful point that even he Tyrion Lannister is in awe and even a little afraid after only a few years of hard work!?

It's clearly a pitfall.

However, after hearing Egger say that "people die twice", Tyrion couldn't resist the temptation to jump into the pit and do something big with him!

"You bastard......" The dwarf gritted his teeth, tried to stretch out a short arm, clenched his fist and touched the other party: "Count me in!"

Egger felt the strength and determination from the opponent's fist, and showed a big smile, and after a long moment he retracted his expression, regained his seriousness, reached out and pulled a copy from the pile of papers on the table, and used a serious tone: "Great, then, we can start talking about the current one—not so big, but it must be solved quickly." ”

......

After a while, Tyrion was faced with incredibly harsh conditions, and finally understood why Iger had to get him to agree to join the gang before he could get down to business.

If it weren't for the "lofty ideals" and "ultimate goals" first...... This kind of romantic gadget that he didn't have aroused his curiosity and hung it, and he probably got up and turned away after hearing the two conditions.

The first is Tywin Lannister, the current Duke of Castle Rock...... Volunteering to join the Night's Watch in black, it was only natural for him to leave the center of power and vacate his position as ruler of the West.

This is an excessive, but understandable consideration given that the former's hands are indeed indirectly stained with the blood of countless Targaryen family members.

But the second was to relocate all of the Lannister's core staff and gold to King's Landing and place them under the royal family's jurisdiction, and at the same time impose the gold controls that Tyrion was familiar with—only this time the Westlands became the controlled side, and all gold mining, smelting, and minting were subject to the central government's surveillance and control.

If the former is just a change of power within the Lannister family, then the latter is asking for their old lives: the western realm wants no territory, no population, no grain production...... Why does it occupy a place among the Seven Kingdoms and even rank among the best?

Isn't it just because you have money?

How much effort did it take for Tywin to rebuild and restore the war-torn land to the extent that the Dragon Queen wanted to pick the fruits of his decades of achievement and hard work?

If he really agrees to this condition and hands over the management of the vast wealth of the Westside to the Iron Throne - to put it mildly, if something happens in the future similar to the mad king's time, the Westside can't swallow his breath and decides to break with the Iron Throne and turn his face, the Lannisters will not even be able to take out the strength to rebel and flip the table, and they will be like a dog chained!

"It can't be. Tyrion said categorically, "I am indeed no longer what I used to be, and I have a huge voice in my family...... But after all, it's just a son. My father, who was old and strong, still had the authority to speak the word, with him at the head of the West, my uncle Kevon second, and I, the banker, at most third...... And he, as everyone knows, Duke Tywin is a man who always puts the interests of the family first, and it is negotiable to ask him to give up his position for the continuation of the Lannister surname, but how can I convince him that it is for the good of the family to transport all the gold from the West to King's Landing for storage? Even I don't believe it!"

"It's not for the benefit of the Lannister's family. Iger shrugged and acknowledged the fact that there was no argument at all, "I don't expect Duke Tywin to agree at all, but right now—isn't the future Duke of Tyrion sitting right in front of me? If you agree after you take over, will your father be able to travel all the way from the Wall to stop this from happening? ”

......

If in the previous conversation, both parties were still talking about the future and discussing the conditions as friends, then this sentence finally tore a small corner of the beautiful appearance, revealing the cold reality inside.

Egger was a friend of his Tyrion, but hardly a friend of the Lannisters!

"Hey, just imagining my dear father reuniting with Jaime and Joffrey, three generations of grandparents, at the Great Wall, I'm about to laugh out loud. ”

Forced to laugh and pull out a wittic, Tyrion's heart sank to the bottom.

Egg was asking him to- hide the latter from Tywin, and then do it himself after he agreed to put on the black clothes and give way!

In doing so, if he had done what he had said, he would have assisted the Queen and Iger during his tenure as Chancellor of the Exchequer – building an empire of unprecedented proportions, extending military and financial supremacy to every corner of the known world, and keeping the name "Tyrion Lannister" in every chronicle and history textbook for generations to come...... That's a good thing.

But what if he doesn't succeed in the end?

The name of himself, who led the Lannisters to give up all their wealth and stretched out their necks to be put on the chains of the queen, was afraid that his name would be engraved on the pillar of shame forever, and would be regarded as an example of stupidity and cowardice for all ages.

It's like roasting him on the fire!

Feeling the non-existent heat coming from his back, the Kaiyan City Lord and the Western Realm Guardian Position, who were extremely attractive just now, suddenly became less fragrant at this moment.
