Take the ride to dominate the game

Chapter 33

Stonewall City, the hall.

"You mean, you want me to help you find stonemasons and carpenters on my territory?" Genos asked, looking at Arthur sitting in front of him.

Arthur nodded, "That's right, but not just a few stonemasons and carpenters. I also need a large number of adult males to cut trees, dig pits, and move stones, and a bachelor to direct the construction, if he has experience in city building That would be great. Of course, I'll pay for it."

"In addition, I have to hoard a lot of potatoes, wheat, peas and other grains, as well as some seasonings, wine, clothes and other miscellaneous things. I hope to buy them from my uncle's territory."

After mobilizing the people to build the village three days ago, he suddenly discovered that they alone couldn't do it.

Not to mention that the available labor in the early [-]s can only dig ring pits and cut trees, let alone the problem of building stone walls. Just coordinating the meals and accommodation of thousands of people has already left Arthur and Amber in a hurry.

After all, it is inexperienced.

After getting them on the right track of digging, Arthur immediately went south to seek the help of the Earl of Stone Hedge City.

Earl Janos took a sip of his wine and said leisurely, "There is no problem at all."

He extorted three thousand gold dragons from Raven Tree City, and he was in a good mood for a while.

After thinking for a while, the Earl said: "I can also issue an order to ask some master craftsmen and apprentices in the workshops in my territory to help you. It's free. Adult males are not a problem. two hundred?"

Arthur replied sincerely: "Around two thousand, it takes a month's work."

Genos almost lost his grip on his wine glass, "Are you going to renovate the castle?"

Two thousand adult men, even in his earldom with a population of one hundred thousand, is not a small number.

"No, it is to build a bigger stockade so that when a war breaks out, all my subjects can come in and take refuge, so the project is a bit larger."

Hearing this, Genos liked this distant nephew even more, "Don't worry, as long as the people of Raventree City dare to retaliate against your territory, I will send troops to stab their assholes."

He subconsciously thought that Arthur was guarding against the Blackwoods.

Arthur did not correct Janos' misunderstanding, and no one could have imagined the political direction of Westeros in the past few months.

The alliance between the Northern Territory and the Riverlands did not have any substantial conflicts with Lannister in the Western Territory, except that the two hostages were taken.

If Eddard Stark hadn't been beheaded by Joffrey's order and silly Robb hadn't become king, I'm afraid Tywin would be happy to make peace with the two families after the little devil came back.

There are always fools, but if Robb has a little bit of the heart of his ancestors, King Torrhen Stark, he will not try to be king.

Because of these factors, the entire Hejian land became the most miserable kingdom in the War of the Five Kings. The peasants were displaced, the food accumulated over the years was robbed by all walks of life to be used as military rations, and the villages were burned to the ground. .

Even the wolf family, which Arthur liked more, never restrained the robbery behavior of the northern army in the river.

It can only be said that these nobles don't have many good things.

"Thank you for your great assistance." Arthur took the wine glass handed over by the servant, and took a sip, "Very good wine."

Although he thought the wine was average, he still praised it out of conscience.

After all, it is asking for help.

"If you can stay in Shili City for a few days, I can call Bangui, a bachelor from Alan City. He has experience in building cities and meets your requirements." After thinking about it for a while, Genos said his suggestion.

The Vance family of Alan City is a powerful branch of the Vance family of Travel Rest City, and is also the title of earl. The relationship with Shili City has always been good.

"That would be the best, but I'm going to buy things in your territory, and I don't have time to accompany you. This Benji, please recruit him, and I will pay him enough salary."

"That's unnecessary." The Earl waved his hand, "Alan City owes me several favors, let their bachelors work for you for free."

Although he didn't understand why Genos was so enthusiastic, Arthur accepted and expressed his gratitude.

The earl emphasized again: "I can also issue an order for two thousand adult men to ensure that you get people who are really capable of activities. You only need to provide board and lodging."

"Thank you very much." Arthur felt more and more ghostly.

These two conditions are not petty favors, and I don't know what Genos wants to do.

"As for craftsmen, carpenters, etc., there are many workshops under my name. How about this, I will ask Hendry to take you to various villages in the afternoon, and they will let you choose, um... the total number of masters and apprentices should not exceed two hundred. "

Another big favor, you know, 200 people in the workshop have left their jobs, which can stop a lot of ongoing work, which is a big loss.

Arthur didn't even dare to accept it, it would be bad if the Earl made any strange request.

But in order to build a defensive stockade, he had to accept it.

"I'm really sorry to make you so..."

Before Arthur finished his words of thanks, he was interrupted by Genos.

"Small." The owner of Shili City suddenly approached, letting his aging face come into Arthur's eyes.

"If you can tie up Brewood's men again, I will give you more help."

Arthur was taken aback, "You mean you want me to tie Brynden again?"

This is not a trivial matter. If Arthur does this once, no matter whether he is justified or not, he is afraid that he will not be able to hang out on the north bank of the Red Fork River.

"Alas~" Genos let out a long cry, "How can you catch a sheep and pluck its wool?"

"Old man Titos has three sons and a daughter. The second son Lucas, the third son Horst, and the daughter Bethany can all be kidnapped!"

"Of course, I don't want you to focus on the kidnapping. I just want you to pay attention to this matter. If you have the opportunity, you will fuck with his family. I will back you up."

Arthur readily agreed.

It's not a mandatory requirement anyway, so don't worry about it.

The War of the Five Kings started a few months later, who still remembers such a trivial matter.

After finalizing the details, Janos, Arthur, Hendry, and Janos' daughter Jayne had lunch together.

In the afternoon, accompanied by Hendry, Arthur went to more than a dozen large villages, and successfully selected two hundred craftsmen in the workshop, including experienced masters and a certain number of apprentices.

He will take these people back to He'an Village first, and then come back to receive [-] laborers.

Of course, a large amount of food and daily sundries will also be purchased at the same time, and these labors will be carried to his territory together.

At night, Shili City.

"This Arthur is too troublesome." Hendry complained to his uncle when he returned home.

"Isn't it just a small territory, as for taking so much trouble?"

Genos didn't take his nephew's complaints seriously, "They are guarding against a big family like Blackwood, so there is nothing wrong with doing this."

"That can't be prepared as if the Seven Kingdoms are going to fight. After all, he has been nested in his small castle for too long and has no knowledge. He just had a fight with Raventree City, and it's just like a cup of fire and a shadow of a snake."

The earl nodded, agreeing with Hendry's point of view, "It is true that Lord Ed and King Robert are young and vigorous, and the days of peace will continue for a long time. Arthur's reaction is too much. Of course , I support him in doing so, and I will never object to actions against Raventree City."

The stone walls of Stonewall recorded their words.

Before long they would regret their foolishness and praise Arthur for his foresight.

We the North and the Starks will not make peace with the Lannisters until the last riverman's blood is shed.
