Norris, a refugee in the Civil War, civilian status. A soldier of the former Cregan Legion's Spear Battalion, after following the Magic Mountain, was selected into the Magic Mountain Guard Regiment and became a dead soldier.

Norris has a name but no surname!

The Magic Mountain gave him a knight and a surname, and he was no longer a commoner but a proletarian knight. Knight, the most honored warrior, is also the lowest knighthood.

Many great nobles, throughout their lives, failed to become knights.

Knights cannot be inherited, but can only be given by personal qualities and bravery.

Chivalry demands a lot from a warrior.

Norris has a very low level of education, but the chivalry is in contrast to him, and he deserves it.

His wife, Anna, stood beside Lady Elenia, her eyes full of tears.

A knight is the highest affirmation of a warrior. For an ordinary commoner, if he can obtain a knighthood and no longer be a civilian, he will be a celebrity, and his greatest achievement in life will be nothing more than this.

Elenia took Anna's hand at the right time.

Gui, as a duchess, took the initiative to hold the hand of her maid.

It was such a gentle grip, this intimate little act of comforting Anna's emotions, which instantly captured Anna's loyalty, and made Anna feel the urge to follow her to the death at that moment.

Respectful but not arrogant, approachable, always makes people of lower rank easy to be moved!

Anna was in a stirred mood, bowed her head, and said softly, "Thank you, ma'am!"

Magic Mountain led Norris to finish taking the oath of knightly code, and the Magic Mountain longsword removed Norris's shoulder and said, "Get up, Norris Knight Clegane." ”

Norris stood up, and the brothers applauded him enthusiastically.

Edmure also applauded Norris.

"Knight Norris, congratulations. Edmure said with a smile on his face.

With applause, Norris's face glowed, and he looked excitedly at his wife, Anna, who was wiping tears from the corners of her eyes with her fingers.

The wife's excitement was the same as Norris's.

There is no doubt that the dignity of the husband is also the glory of the wife! Many wives are more excited when their husbands achieve something than they are about themselves. That's what Anna is like this at the moment.

Magic Mountain said, "Erin, Joyce, carry it out and give it to Lady Elenia."

Erin and Joyce gave an order, and the four brothers carried out two heavy rattan boxes and placed them in front of Elena, Elenia bent down and reached out to open the rattan boxes, her eyes were full of surprise, and in front of her were two boxes full of gold dragon coins.

Two boxes of golden dragons, a huge amount of money, ordinary little nobles can use it for a lifetime.

"Little sister, this is a part of my heart and Jane's heart. ”

“...... Thank you, brother-in-law, for ....... The emotion in Elena's heart was indescribable, and Anna gently supported her at the right time.

"Buy whatever you want, your sister Jenny and I will never let you run out of money to spend. ”

"Brother-in-law, in Riverrun, by my husband's side, I don't lack anything. Elenia almost cried tears of joy.

Although she was married, she was only thirteen years old. Her heart is still pure. Elenia, who has been taught to marry into a noble family since she was a few years old, is greedy for fame and wealth, but in this world, it may not be a disadvantage, but an advantage.

A noble maiden, who wouldn't want to marry a duke with the highest title?

All Cinderella wants to marry a Prince Charming!

"Brother-in-law!" said Edmure, "I think Ilenia and I would be happier if you could send us two crates of snow salt." ”

"Edmure, we had a detailed plan for cooperation with Snow Salt before the start of the civil war, and now it's time to re-execute the plan. You shut down the messy salt mining everywhere, leaving only a salt cave, and I'll send technicians to take care of the mining and refining and finally making the snow salt, and the profits will be split equally. ”

"No, I'm sixty percent. Edmure said.

Magic Mountain looked at Edmure with a calm look: "Okay, the territory is yours, and I accept four or six accounts." The snow salt will first meet the consumption of the people in the river, and then gradually expand the production, and sell it to the other side of the narrow sea through Seagull Town, so that we can make money together as a family. ”

"Deal, brother-in-law!"

"I'm going to work with you for dark beer and wheat wine in the Riverlands, and you're in charge of all the breweries in the Riverlands, preferably in one big brewery, and I'll be in charge of selling them in Westeros and Essos. ”

"Our Riverland beers have opened up sales channels for the Narrow Sea Free Trade City-State. ”

"Then cut off all the previous businesses and give me all the beers. I will set up two points of sale in the two port cities of Seagull Town and Lannisham, through which any captain and merchant can only buy dark beer and wheat wine. You'll get half of the profit from the sale of beer, and you'll get ten times more revenue than if you were to just charge a little tax on the beer. As production continues to recover, this income will be higher and higher. ”

Edmure's eyes lit up.

"Brother-in-law, I will sell all the beer in the riverland, and you will not deliberately lower the price of my people. ”

"I will buy it at a slightly higher price than the original price. This would dispel all wariness and hostility from the workshop owners. Of course, any workshop owner who dares to sell to other third parties is breaking the law against the law, Edmure, you need to make a law and declare that your people are not allowed to sell beer to anyone but me. ”

"Deal!"

Magic Mountain smiled slightly, the status and relationship are in place, and there is power in his hands, doing business to make money, that is a matter of one sentence. It couldn't be easier.

The Magic Mountain, which has been deformed by the cultivation of advanced civilization, knows that there is no more profitable business than monopoly!

And in this hierarchical society, the power of the great lords is the royal law.

And he knew that it wouldn't be long before Edmu would have to come to the Westside to find him, and he would start another project with him: opening a branch of the Cregan Bank in Riverrun.

Edmure himself had to come to the door, and it would allow the Cregan Bank to enter Riverrun smoothly. Of course, the banks in Seagull Town will also open soon. Well, by the way, there's also King's Landing's banknote rollout plan.

In King's Landing, Cersei is still waiting for a reply from the Magic Mountain.

The Magic Mountain provides Cersei with a permanent way to print money, which invisibly amplifies Cersei's greed and allows her to see the glimmer of light to solve the royal family's financial crisis. Of course, there is a huge risk in this dawn - if the crazy printing of paper money flows into the market, the paper money will really become paper, not money. - Of course, Cersei couldn't have understood this.

Showing the benefits and letting others take the initiative to ask for cooperation is a smarter business method.

Despite Cersei's letter, the Magic Mountain is in no hurry to enter King's Landing to implement the paper money plan, and he returns to the West, where he has something more important to do.

Winter is coming, but it's against the Northerners, especially Stark.

Westside, there are still many warm years to come.

The most important thing is to do a good job in the western frontier first, consolidate power and financial resources, and turn the western frontier into one's own reserve and base area.

People have no foundation, everything will be duckweed!

Through Littlefinger and with the help of his fierce soldiers, the Magic Mountain has managed the valley, and through forced marriage, he has taken advantage of the 'ultimate ideal' of his little sister Elenia to marry into the great nobles, and has managed to get the Riverlands.

What the north needs most at the moment, the magic mountain will bring to the north.

The Stark family is a grateful family and a family that will repay the favor, and the mountain knows that his investment is worth it. In the last moment, if Daenerys Targaryen, the Mother of Dragons, and the Mountain are incompatible, the Mountain will need the help of the Stark family at that time.

With powerful allies on the outside and stability and prosperity on the inside, everything seems to be progressing in the plans of the Magic Mountain, and he can feel that his power and money are growing day by day. And thinking of the future, Magic Mountain's thoughts flew to the Great Wall of Despair.

Calculating the time, Gavin Westerling, the father-in-law secretly arranged by the Magic Mountain, should be about to arrive at the East Sea Wanggang of the Desperate Great Wall.

*

The Great Wall of Desperation stretches across Westeros, stretching from the Grand Canyon of the Wolf Forest Mountains to the west, with frozen shores and icy bays beyond the Grand Canyon. Bear Island, the territory of the Mormont family, is located in an icy bay.

From the east of the Great Wall to Seal Bay in the Narrow Sea, the easternmost military fortress near the sea is the famous East Sea Lookout.

There is a small port in Donghaiwang, which serves as a channel for the night watch's trade and the night watchman's shopping.

Iron ore, cloth, and beer were brought ashore from this port, and wild beasts and skins hunted by the Night's Watch were sold from this port to the city-state of Braavos in the Narrow Sea.

Since the morning, there have been many big people on the shore of the port.

This scene is extremely rare.

The water conditions in Seal Bay are complicated and the winds are raging, but the weather is fine today, but the snow has never stopped.

It was garrisoned by less than 200 men led by Carter Pike for a long time. Donghaiwang has its own bachelor.

The Night's Watch's fleet is anchored in the East China Sea, with both large ships capable of traversing the Narrow Sea, as well as slender and nimble warships. The fleet is primarily used to patrol Seal Bay to catch smugglers who sell weapons to savages.

There are also some fishermen living in the vicinity of Tokaibo. Whether outside or inside the Great Wall, there are several small fishing villages. The night watchman, fleet fighters, and local fishermen were familiar.

To the west is the Green Guard, a military fortress that has been idle and abandoned for thousands of years, and has long since been dilapidated.

The people waiting on the shore were all dressed in cold fur, and in the center was Eddard Stark, whose face had been frozen purple and black in the cold wind since he arrived at the Wall.

The slightly thin man next to Ed was Sir Onion Davos Seaworth, who was taciturn and had gloomy eyes.

The Night's Watch, Commander Jon Snow, was not here, but he was stationed at Castle Black to prevent the Wraiths from launching another wall-climbing raid.

The Wraiths had been defeated by them several times, but Eddard Stark believed that it was actually a temptation by the Wraiths, who seemed to be holding out something and did not launch a real large-scale attack. This made Eddard Stark very puzzled, and in order to stabilize the morale of the army, Eddard Stark hid his worries in his heart and never told anyone.

Eddard Stark stood by Carter Pike, the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Sea Lookout, an extremely ugly man with a pointed forehead and a pointed chin, an iron breed who had been a pirate. It was because of his mastery of water nature and water warfare that he achieved the position of commander of the East Sea Lookout and was in charge of the only fleet of the Night's Watch.

"It's coming!" shouted a lookout soldier on the bridge of the fleet.

"What flag?" called Carter Peck.

The cold wind blew his voice to pieces!

Seal Bay has devoured an unknown number of ships, and experienced people like Davos Seaworth are reluctant to pass through Seal Bay.

In Seal Bay, there is the island of Casgus, which is home to a rare magical creature: the unicorn.

The unicorn on the Crab Claw Peninsula in the royal territory is a species brought by the people of the Casges Islands who migrated to the Crab Claw Peninsula.

The islands of Casgus were nominally part of the Stark family of the North, but they were never actually conquered, and the people of the islands were de facto independent. When the weather is good, the people of the island come out to raid.

"Commander, it's the banner of Braavos, the Titan flag!"

The Titans, the iconic building of Braavos, is a giant built on two islands, and the giant's two feet are on the two islands, and the ships of all sizes enter the Braavos port from under the legs of the Titans.

"It's Count Gavin. Ed said.

In the secret letter that Moshan wrote to him, he said that he would fly the Titan flag and hire the Titan merchant ship. The purpose of this is to keep the Iron Throne from knowing that the Mountain is secretly funding the North and the Night's Watch.

Eddard Stark remembers the evil of the Magic Mountain, but he also remembers the kindness of the Magic Mountain.

Behind Eddard stood a man with an ugly face and a fierce gaze: Sandor Clegane, the hound. After joining the Brotherhood of the Flagless, he came to the Great Wall of Desperation with the Brotherhood of the Banner, where everyone believes in the Red God, but the Hound is an exception.

The Hound has become an independent person on the Great Wall, and he does not listen to the Brotherhood of the Flagless Brotherhood boss Berry Dondelion, and he has no interest in the Red God prayer meeting held by the red-robed monk Thoros, and never participates.

But because he was invincible in every battle against the Wraiths, fighting and forgetting his life, he earned the respect of the Night's Watch and other brothers, whether it was Eddard Stark or Jon Snow, or the leader of the Brotherhood without Banners, the Lightning-King Berry, who no longer controlled his ways.

To the surprise of the Hound Dog, who secretly sent a ship to deliver supplies to the Wall of Desperation, the Hound chose to follow Eddard Stark to the East Sea Lookout.

He wanted to see what the mysterious material sent by the Magic Mountain was.

The things that would have Eddard Stark pick up in person must not be beer, iron ore, cloth, or anything like that.

It is said that the magic mountain did not specify exactly what it was in the letter, he only said that it was the most urgent thing for the night watchman and the Great Wall legion, and it was said that there was a large ship full of them.

Fortunately, the merchant ship survived the storms of Seal Bay and finally appeared in everyone's sight.

What exactly will be the mysterious material secretly sent by the Magic Mountain?

Magic Mountain, Magic Mountain, Magic Mountain Again!

The corners of the hound's eyes twitched slightly!
