"If there is no emotion, what is the point of being a god? If you become a god, you only know faith, and if you become a strong person, you will blindly pursue strength and lose your emotion. Then such gods or people are just slaves to faith and power. Having the freedom of wanton emotions, this should be the real goal." These words were not only an answer to Arianne, but also Ye Ting's request for himself.

Hearing such an answer, Arianne smiled sweetly, looking at the man in front of him as if water was dripping from his eyes.

In fact, Ye Ting also felt a little strange about Arianne like this.

Most of Dorn’s women have hot personalities.

Arianne Martel, as the heir to Dorn, is even more unlikely to be like an ordinary lady.

In the original book, in order to achieve her own goals, even her father dared to calculate, and even her own body dared to sacrifice. If one finds someone similar to her from the history of the earth, it must be Cleopatra, Cleopatra.

Because of this, Ye Ting was very strange in his heart when he saw Arianne now knowing and speaking softly.

Another point is the joy in Arianne's tone.

That kind of happy feeling is not like a person who is forced to come over to be a saint at all.

In the original book, she even tried to escape from Yangji City due to marital problems, and tried to seduce someone about the same age as her uncle. She didn't look like the kind of woman who would willingly go to church to be a nun.

In fact, Ye Ting himself didn't understand women.

Originally, Arianne might be very dissatisfied with this fate. But the moment he saw Ye Ting's appearance, all his dissatisfaction disappeared immediately.

Not to mention, besides possessing powerful power and unfathomable wisdom, Ye Ting is not a true divine envoy and generally has no emotions. From the dialogue between him and Arianne himself, as well as the Ye Ting witnessed by Alian. The mode of getting along with Daenerys. It has already made her twelve points satisfied.

In other words, the woman in front of me has already given it for nothing.

However, Ye Ting immediately understood the speed that this woman gave for nothing.

Because she has now unzipped her belt, and her loose robe has slipped to her feet.

He immediately feasted on the exotic scenery.

The petite man does have a good figure that makes him angry.

How do you say that? Childlike big breasts.

Arianne came straight to Ye Ting and straddled his lap boldly.

Ye Ting at this time has long been confused, are all women in this world like this?

Daenerys gave it for nothing on the first night of the meeting, and Melisandre also gave it for nothing on the first night of the meeting. Today, Arianne has only just met for a long time.

However, Ye Ting had no energy to think.

As soon as he stretched out his hand, he grabbed Arianne's arms and underarms, and gently lifted her up like a kitten.

Giant dragons have never been passive creatures.

Item 0179

Since Arianne arrived in Pantos, Daenerys, who had reached an alliance with Dorn, completely lost her worries, so her power ushered in a rapid development.

She successively accepted the allegiance of many governors in the free trade city-states. Then, the Dragon God Church and the Dragon Blood Chamber of Commerce from Pantos began to station in Rees, Kehall, Novos, Mill, Taloshi, and Varan. Tis and Loras, a large part of the governors of these city-states have joined the Dragon Blood Chamber of Commerce and converted to the Dragon God Church. In addition, the armies of these cities have also carried out a series of major blood exchanges and renewals. For training, the pastors of the Dragon God Church are stationed in these troops.

At the same time, these cities coincidentally began to hire a newly formed Dothraki mercenary regiment to help defend the city and **** the caravan. This mercenary regiment was newly formed, and all the soldiers in the regiment were Doss who retired from Pantos. Rake soldiers, and are fanatical followers of the Dragon God cult.

In this way, Daenerys controlled eight free trade city-states overtly and secretly, and the eight cities were controlled by her and the Dragon God Sect in terms of economy, army or belief, and it was only one step away from actual rule. Far away.

However, she did not directly announce the rule of these cities, not because she was unwilling, but because Ye Ting suggested that the current political situation in the seven countries of Westeros has reached the point where it is volatile. With just a single push, it can be like Pushing to the domino level, the situation of the reunification of the seven countries collapsed.

At that time, the seven countries that are deep in the abyss of war will have no ability to control the situation on the continent of Essos. Once the war begins, the seven countries’ careerists will be like riding on a bull with a lighted tail. The direction of the Seven Kingdoms is completely uncontrolled. When the entire Seven Kingdoms are broken into a mud and the war potential is greatly consumed, Daenerys can enter from Dorn, sweep the Seven Kingdoms with a destructive force, and unify Vis in one fell swoop. Tello.

But now, she must lie dormant, not show her fangs too much, and make the Seven Kingdoms too vigilant. Once the Seven Kingdoms realizes the threat of Daenerys before the chaos, they will instead unite, and internal conflicts will turn into External conflicts. In this case, she would have to fight a tough battle outside of her home court across the sea and shake up the entire seven-nation army. Although she can win, it is likely to be a tragic victory. Moreover, the hatred of the people of the seven countries will be reaped in the war, which is very detrimental to future rule.

At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang's strategy was very good. Build walls high, accumulate grain, and slowly become king. now. But you mean you must adopt such a strategy.

Although King Lauber is faint now, the dignitaries of the Seven Kingdoms are not sensitive to the intelligence of Essos. But once Daenerys unified the eight free trade city-states in one fell swoop, and mastered a huge power almost equivalent to the seven nations, no matter how dazed Robert was, he would also be vigilant. And those pretenders to the throne will definitely postpone their actions, otherwise they will only make others cheaper.

Up to now, Daenerys' move like this is quite successful. Although she took control of Pantos and became the reincarnation of Azor Yahai, she also hatched three dragons. However, the reaction of King's Landing City to this incident was not too big. They only used several assassination methods, but Daenerys, who was protected by magic, easily avoided it.

On the other hand, Daenerys was also acting, and the Dragon God Church and his chamber of commerce were gradually infiltrating Westeros.

Regarding the Dragon God Church, although Westeros’ belief in the Seven Gods is quite strong, the Dragon God Church quickly gained a foothold with its endless miracles. A large number of nobles have abandoned the Seven Gods and turned to believe in the more effective Dragon God Church.

However, it was Daenerys's Chamber of Commerce that had a richer harvest than the Dragon God Church.

In the recent period, the free trade city-state established a new organization called the Free Trade Bank.

This organization does not do any business, nor does it produce any goods. They have opened stores called banks in all major cities. Any merchant can deposit his gold and silver wealth in any bank in any place, and withdraw the wealth at any other branch through the credentials given by the bank.

This greatly reduces the inconvenience and risk caused by the businessmen carrying too many financial reports when they are doing business.

Therefore, as soon as the free trade bank appeared, it was greatly welcomed by business people.

Such a banking organization just appeared, and it will inevitably be suspected by others, but the background of the free trade bank is very unusual, and its shareholders cover most of the governors of the entire free trade city-state. Each of these governors can be said to be rich and enemies. If they each put out a sum of money, even if it is only one-tenth of their wealth, it will be a huge astronomical figure if all these wealth are combined.

Therefore, no one believes that the free trade bank cannot give money.

In addition, the Free Trade Bank also concurrently serves as a loan business.

Anyone can borrow a sum of money in a free trade bank with a certain amount of collateral, and the interest rate is much lower than ordinary usury. The free trade bank's background allows him to guarantee that he can recover the arrears in most cases.

Of course, on the surface, the Free Trade Bank has nothing to do with Daenerys.

But in fact, all the top executives in the free trade bank are either Daenerys's subordinates or her diehard or fanatical followers of the Dragon God cult.

In short, the Free Trade Bank is completely controlled by her, and even other governors as shareholders have no right to speak.

This is also a means by which Daenerys controls these governors.

At the same time, this bank has replaced the status of the "iron vault" with a larger amount of funds, a more advanced system and more outlets.

The iron vault is the most important bank in Braavos-of course, these primitive banks can only be regarded as loan sharks. It is very rich and often lends money to outsiders. Among its clients are the kings of the Seven Kingdoms.

Although all the free trade city-states have their own banks, the iron treasury is richer and more powerful than all other banks combined. It has a terrible reputation when it comes to collecting debts. When the prince or king defaults on their debts, or is stupid enough to disrespect their contract with the Iron Vault, new princes or kings (with the financial assistance of the Iron Vault) will spring up like mushrooms. These new princes or kings must recognize their previous debts and repay the money they borrowed from the iron vault to win the throne, lest they suffer the same fate as their predecessors.

Today, only Braavos among the nine free trade city states is still independent. It is clear that Daenerys is going to play on the stage, and Braavos, as the most powerful free trade city-state, its source of wealth is mainly from navigation and the "Iron Vault". Now the business of the Iron Vault is due to the Free Trade Bank. It was a devastating blow, and in terms of navigation, it could only have a temporary advantage at best.

On the one hand, Ye Ting’s knowledge allows Daenerys to quickly build more powerful and advanced merchant ships and warships. On the other hand, although Braavos’s "Sea King" has a terrifying fleet, he faces the giant dragon. , These wooden fleets are nothing. The dragon only needs to breathe dragon's breath in the air, which is enough to wipe out any fleet.

Now the Free Trade Bank has become the creditor of a considerable number of nobles in the seven countries, including King Robert himself.

In fact, under Robert's rule, the treasury of the seven countries has long been in debt.

After becoming king, Robert was unwilling to worry about politics, threw everything to the Imperial Council, and squandered the money left by Iris II to satisfy his various material desires.

Just recently, his first "hand of the king"-the prime minister-and his adoptive father, Jon Alling died unexpectedly from illness, so Robert led a large team of kings and traveled long distances. Go to Winterfell to meet the last person he can trust-the guardian of the north, Ed Stark, who is also the adopted son of Jon Allyn with Robert. Compared with the last time they met nine years ago, Ned hasn't changed much, but Robert has become weak and physically weak from indulging in alcohol, and is completely another person.
