Game of Thrones' opening sold the gods

Chapter 69 68. Declaration
The next day, many slaves woke up to a different day!

All the big-eyed and small-eyed people came to the slave square, and the old and new slaves were mixed together.

Seeing the soldiers in sharp armor around them, many people who were originally nobles and were later demoted to slaves by Cleon became active.

It seems that this group of forces that wiped out Cleon has a lot of background. The weapons and equipment of the soldiers are so luxurious. In ancient times, armor was always the most valuable thing, and weapons were not worth much.

In ancient times, the jurisdiction over weapons was sometimes tight and sometimes loose, but the possession of armor has always been a capital crime, not only because the armor is expensive, but more because of the role of armor in warfare.

Schiller took out the iron horn and said in Valyrian, "I am Schiller, and you can call me the city guard from now on!"

"You don't have to worry about where I come from, but Astapor will be under my control in the future. From now on, no matter what your status was before, you will now become citizens of Astapor."

Schiller talked for half an hour, and the efforts of the audience and the other slave owners also understood one thing.

That is, there will be no slaves in Astapor in the future, which makes them think of the woman, but it is obvious that this is not the mother of dragons.

Because the Mother of Dragons does not have such an elite army.

Then Schiller began to drastically transform Astapor.

The first thing is to clean up the remnants of Astapor's old ruling power. It took four thousand elite soldiers to clean up for half a month before Astapor was truly under control.

During this time, both Yunkai and Meereen had heard the news of Astapor's change of master, but strangely, neither city had heard back.

Daenerys of Meereen was completely devastated by the Son of the Harpy, while Yunkai looked like she had nothing to do with herself.

However, Yunkai reprimanded Astapor for freeing the slaves, saying Schiller and Daenerys were the same.

But that's all, obviously Yunkai didn't want to get into trouble and cause trouble for himself.

This gave Schiller some time.

Schiller solemnly issued the "Declaration of Freedom to Emancipate Slaves" and "Letter to Slave Owners", the former proclaiming the freedom to emancipate slaves.

The latter is Schiller's main purpose. The general content of the latter is to let the manor owners around Astapor liberate the slaves in their manors and voluntarily hand over the land.

This will not only save your life, but also keep your money, and don't think about killing slaves to destroy the land and then run away with the money. You have three days to think about it.

And Schiller did not give them three days, but sent troops directly on the first day to sweep the surrounding manor owners.

Because of its excellent equipment, Schiller can divide his troops into multiple groups and act at the same time.

This time, many manor owners who were about to run away were caught, and they were killed on the spot and their property was confiscated.

Facing the honest manor owner, Schiller also kept his promise, allowing them to keep their family property, and they could choose to leave their hometown or live in Astapor.

Schiller said that he has glass, soap, refined salt and other technologies, and he can give them a sip of soup at that time.

This news also surprised many manor owners, and at the same time, they also had clues and guesses about the origin of Schiller and his group.

But this does not prevent them from being happy. You must know that if you can sell what Schiller said, if you can share it with them, you will definitely make more money than being a manor owner.

As time went by, in just three days, Schiller took over the land around Astapor and made a fortune at the same time. There were quite a few manor owners who wanted to die.

After cleaning up the manor owners, Schiller began to recount the population of Astapor.

There are 20 people living in Astapor City, and the surrounding population is around 80, with a total population of about 100 million.

Schiller leased the land to the freed slaves and offered to sell it to them for a silver coin if they worked it for three years.

However, the rent collected by Schiller in the past three years is only [-]%, and the land is distributed according to the head. Basically, one person can be allocated four acres of land.

And each manor is designated as a village, which is more convenient for management.

At the same time, Schiller implemented the system of consecutive sittings. One family broke the law, and all the neighbors around suffered.

At the same time, in accordance with the laws of the river land, Schiller promulgated a new code of freedom, re-establishing the prestige of the law.

When Schiller came to Astapor, he brought not only [-] elites, but also a group of bachelors and key personnel from the Hejiandi factory.

Astapor quickly stabilized following a series of decrees issued by Schiller.

Schiller's reforms are different from Daenerys. Daenerys only unshackled the slaves, but Schiller not only unshackled the slaves, but also found a way out for the slaves to live again.

The rapid stabilization of Astapor stunned Yunkai and Meereen. They had never seen an outside power seize control of the city by force and then stabilize so quickly.

Otherwise, look at Meereen, even if Daenerys has the Unsullied and the three dragons, she is still caught in the "Meereen Knot".

No matter what they think on Schiller's side, after the land was distributed, Schiller began to choose the construction site of the factory.

Schiller has not yet taken root in Essos, so naturally he cannot build the factory outside Astapor.

In the end, Varys' suggestion was followed, and several pyramids were selected for transformation as the basis of the factory.

Schiller looked at Astapor who was gradually stabilizing and started to operate rapidly, and finally took a breath in his heart.

Because it is the first film in which Theon takes root in Essos, Theon attaches great importance to this operation, which also puts a lot of pressure on Schiller.

Fortunately, the first step has finally been completed now, and Schiller has calculated the time correctly. The grain has just been harvested, so there is no need to worry about the grain issue at present.

After Schiller occupied Astapor, he sent a letter to Theon. It would take a few months at most for the first batch of cement to be sent to Astapor, and then he would be truly at ease.

The current Astapor can only be said to be basically stable, thanks to the four thousand elites under Bronn's command to stabilize the situation.

However, the first wave of conscription is already under preparation. At present, 5000 people are tentatively recruited, and then 4000 people will be screened and added to Bolong's command.

The remaining 1000 people form the law enforcement agency, which is used to maintain order in Astapor and handle some legal disputes at the same time.

In this way, Astapor will definitely be much more stable.

However, the first conscription was not smooth, and Schiller had already reduced the treatment of joining the army to one-fifth of the regular army in Hejian, but most people still thought that Schiller was recruiting "death squads!"

In the end, the salary of the army was reduced to [-] copper coins a month, including three meals and lodging before anyone came to sign up.

It took a whole month to stumble together enough five thousand young men who met the requirements.
