After Arianne arrived in Pentos, Daenerys, who had formed an alliance with Dorne, completely lost her worries, and her power ushered in a rapid development.

She gradually accepted the allegiance of many governors in the Free Trade City. Then, the Church of the Dragon God and the Dragon Blood Chamber of Commerce from Pentos began to station themselves in Lys, Qohor, Norvos, Myr, Tyrosh, and Varan. Tis and Loras, a large number of governors in these city-states have joined the Dragon Blood Merchant Guild and converted to the Church of the Dragon God. In addition, the armies of these cities have also undergone a series of major changes and reorganizations, openly and secretly. Training, and even priests from the Dragon God Church are stationed in these armies.

At the same time, these cities also began to hire a newly formed Dothraki mercenary army to help defend the city and escort the caravans. This mercenary army was newly established. All the warriors in the army were Dothraki retired from Pentos. Lark soldiers, and they are all fanatical followers of the Dragon God Cult.

In this way, Daenerys overtly and covertly controlled the eight Free Trade Cities. The economy, army, and faith of the eight cities were all in the hands of her and the Dragon God Cult. They were only one step away from actual rule. far away.

However, she did not directly declare her rule over these cities, not because she was unwilling, but because Ye Ting suggested that the current political situation in the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros has reached a point where it is about to break out. Like dominoes, the situation of the unification of the seven countries collapsed.

By that time, the Seven Kingdoms, which are deep in the abyss of war, will have no ability to control the situation on the Essos continent. Once the war starts, the ambitious people of the Seven Kingdoms will be like riding a bull with its tail set on fire. The direction of the Seven Kingdoms is completely uncontrollable. After the entire Seven Kingdoms are reduced to a puddle of mud and the war potential is greatly consumed, Daenerys can enter the game from Dorne, sweep across the Seven Kingdoms with a devastating force, and unify Weiss in one fell swoop. Tello.

But now, she must lie dormant and not show her fangs too much to make the Seven Kingdoms too vigilant. Once the Seven Kingdoms realize the threat of Daenerys before the chaos, then they will unite and internal conflicts will turn into External conflicts, in this case, she would have to fight a tough battle across the sea outside her home court, and challenge the entire army of the Seven Kingdoms. Although she could win, it would probably be a tragic victory. Moreover, it will also gain the hatred of the people of the seven countries during the war, which is very detrimental to future rule.

Zhu Yuanzhang's strategy back then was very good. Build walls high, accumulate grain widely, and become king slowly. Now. But you mean you have to adopt such a strategy.

Although King Robert is now fatuous, the dignitaries of the Seven Kingdoms are not sensitive to the intelligence of Essos. But once Daenerys unifies the eight Free Trade Cities in one fell swoop and masters a huge power that is almost equal to that of the Seven Kingdoms, then no matter how stupid Robert is, he will still be extremely vigilant. And those pretenders to the throne will definitely postpone their actions, otherwise they will only give others an advantage.

Until now, it seems that Daenerys's move has been quite successful. Although she took control of Pentos, became the reincarnation of Azor Ahai, and hatched three dragons. However, King's Landing's reaction to this incident was not great. They only used several assassination methods, but Daenerys, protected by magic, easily escaped.

On the other hand, Daenerys is also taking action, and the Dragon God Church and his chamber of commerce are gradually penetrating into Westeros.

As for the Church of the Dragon God, although the belief in the Seven Gods in Westeros is quite strong, the Church of the Dragon God quickly established a firm foothold with its endless miracles. A large number of nobles have abandoned the Seven Gods and turned to the more efficacious Church of the Dragon God.

However, compared to the Church of Dragon God, it was the Chamber of Commerce under Daenerys that reaped a richer harvest.

In recent times, the Free Trade City has established a new organization called the Free Trade Bank.

This organization does not do any business or produce any goods. They have opened stores called banks in all big cities. Any businessman can deposit his gold and silver wealth into a bank in any place and withdraw his wealth at any other outlet through the credentials given by the bank.

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

Therefore, as soon as the Free Trade Bank appeared, it was strongly welcomed by businessmen.

When such a banking organization first appeared, it would inevitably be suspected by others, but the background of the Free Trade Bank was very unusual. Its shareholders included most of the governors of the entire Free City State. Each of these governors can be said to be as rich as the country. If no one of them comes up with a sum of money, even just one percent of their wealth, when all of this wealth is combined, it will be a huge astronomical figure.

Therefore, no one will believe that free travel cannot provide money.

In addition, Free Trade Bank also conducts loan business.

Anyone can borrow a sum of money in a free trade bank with a certain amount, and the interest rate is much lower than that of ordinary usury. And the background of Free Trade Bank allows him to ensure that in most cases the arrears can be recovered.

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 die-hard loyalists or fanatical followers of the Cult of the Dragon.

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

This is also a means for Daenerys to control these governors.

At the same time, this bank has replaced the"Iron Bank" status with its larger amount of funds, more advanced systems and more outlets.

The Iron Bank is the most important bank in Braavos - of course, these primitive banks can only be regarded as charging usury. It was extremely wealthy and often lent money to outsiders, and among its clients were the kings of the Seven Kingdoms.

While all Free Cities have their own banks, the Iron Bank is wealthier and more powerful than all the others combined. It has a terrible reputation when it comes to collecting debts. When princes or kings default on their debts, or are foolish enough to disrespect their contracts with the Iron Bank, new princes or kings (with financial assistance from the Iron Bank) spring up. These new princes or kings would then have to recognize the previous debts and repay the money they borrowed from the Iron Bank to win the throne, lest they suffer the same fate as their predecessors.

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

On the one hand, the knowledge possessed by Ye Ting can allow Dany to quickly build more powerful and advanced merchant ships and warships. On the other hand, although the"Sea King" of Braavos has a terrifying fleet, it cannot face the huge fleet. Dragon, these wooden fleets are nothing. The dragon only needs to breathe dragon breath in the air, which is enough to annihilate any fleet.

Now the Free Trade Bank has become the creditor of quite a few nobles in the Seven Kingdoms, including King Robert himself.

In fact, under Robert's rule, the treasury of the Seven Kingdoms had already been heavily in debt.

After becoming king, Robert refused to worry about political affairs, left everything to the royal council, and squandered the money left by Aerys II to satisfy his various material desires.

Just recently, his first"Hand of the King""——The Prime Minister—and also his adoptive father—Jon Arryn unexpectedly died of illness, so Robert led a large royal team and traveled long distances to Winterfell to meet the last person he could trust—Northern Eddard Stark, the Guardian of the Realm and the adopted son of Jon Arryn with Robert. Ned had not changed much from the last time they met nine years ago, but Robert had grown fat and frail from drinking and debauchery, and was a completely different man.

As his good friend, Eddard Stark had to take over the position of Prime Minister. Only then did he realize that the royal family already owed a huge debt of six million gold dragons. His creditors included his Queen Cersei's natal family, the Lannister family, The Tyrell family and the Church of the Seven that control the Reach, one of the Seven Kingdoms、Losey's Merchant House and today the Free Trade Bank.

By lending money to the king, the Free Trade Bank soon opened up in the Seven Kingdoms and opened branches everywhere. Through the Free Trade Bank, Daenerys was able to learn detailed information about Westeros, and Able to use wealth to support the struggle for power in Westeros, and even manipulate the future civil war of the Seven Sevens.

And what about King Robert? He was unaware of everything and was still addicted to jousting and material enjoyment. He completely ignored his debt situation and ordered a grand and extravagant jousting meeting in the name of welcoming the new prime minister.

However, Ye Ting knew that the entire plot of A Song of Ice and Fire actually started from here.

Yes, time has entered 298 AC - by the way, AC refers to the Chronicle of Aegon, referring to Daenerys's ancestor, the first"conqueror" of the Targaryen family to conquer the Seven Kingdoms. Calendar used by the maesters and educated men of Westeros in the year Geng was crowned in Oldtown.

Now, in the Seven Kingdoms, the seeds of chaos have long been planted and will soon erupt. Even King Robert himself and princes like Eddard Stark will die under political conspiracy. Then comes the battle for succession——""War of the Five Kings", all this is Daenerys' chance.

And just recently, Ye Ting's research has come to an end. , research on Ysera's bloodline, he has found the method of the dragon Animagus.

Therefore, he plans to temporarily leave the continent of Essos and go to King's Landing before returning to the world of"Harry Potter" After all

, I came to the world of"A Song of Ice and Fire" and met Daenerys of the dragon family who represents"fire" and her three dragons, but I didn't meet Star, who represents"ice". Ke family, it still feels like something is missing.

In addition, he also wants to add fuel to this huge conspiracy and make the world more chaotic.
