Game of Thrones: Overlord of the Deep Sea

Chapter 51 Building a New Economic System

After everyone left, Jack returned to the courtyard he had rented. After all, just after he ruled Meereen, he took bribes from the Great Pyramid, and the influence was not very good.

After returning to the mansion she rented, Vetteril immediately went up to ask after Jack came back, "How are you? Are you not injured? You don't send someone back to deliver a letter, you're worried about me."

Jack touched her little head with a smile, and comforted him: "Don't worry, who am I? Only I can hurt others, how can anyone hurt me?"

After appeasing Vetteril, Jack sent someone to contact the eleven nobles. He had been following these nobles for a long time, and their home addresses were also clear.

Time passed, and it was evening in a blink of an eye. Jack summoned the last nobleman, Manduo Gelu.

When Manduo came to visit, he brought not only 12 gold, but also countless gems and gold accessories, with a total value of at least [-].

For a small nobleman like Manduo, this money is definitely hurting.

Jack immediately stood up to greet him, "It's all my family, why are you bringing so many gifts?"

"The Prime Minister is joking. It is because of the family that he brought some worthless vulgar things to visit. You and Her Majesty the Queen liberated the Slaves Bay. Naturally, it was a lot of hard work. It is my heart to bring some gifts to visit. Please. Be sure to accept it."

Mantuo's face was full of respect and admiration, even if the other party was a teenager, he still didn't feel awkward at all.

"Hahaha, look at what you said, then I'd rather be obedient than respectful. I'll accept this little gift. Sit down quickly and go prepare some food and drink, Vitril."

"Okay, I'll go right now."

With a smile on Man Tuo's face, he quickly criticized this "little gift", but he took out [-]% of the family's wealth, and almost emptied the house.

"Then I will sit down boldly and thank the Prime Minister for his hospitality."

"You can still call me Mr. Prime Minister, just call me Jack in private, don't be restrained."

"That won't work, you are a celebrity by the queen's side, the queen's right and left hand, respect to you is the most basic!"

"You, okay, then I won't say more, come and drink first, and the food will be served after the meeting."

The two chatted very happily, like old friends for many years, and Manduo even kept his mouth shut about the assignment of the 13th special zone, while revealing information about Meereen to Jack.

After the dishes were served, the two drank even more happily until the moon completely illuminated the earth at night.

Only then did Jack take the initiative to say: "Mantu, you have also read the plan for District 13, what do you like?"

"It's all up to your arrangement, I only have one small request." Mantu said cautiously.

"Oh? Let's hear it." Jack signaled Mantu to speak boldly.

"Master Prime Minister, you are young and promising. My incompetent son is idle in the army all day long. See if you can take him with you so that he can gain knowledge and learn from you." Man Tuo said embarrassingly. .

"Well, no problem, I remember your son, Ivan Grew, right?"

"It is his honor that you know his name, my lord."

Jack didn't expect this old boy to let his son follow him. If this fell into the eyes of other nobles, it would be a naked betrayal.

"No problem, just let him go to the Great Pyramid to find me tomorrow."

"Okay, thank you, thank you for your hard work."

As soon as she sent the happy Manduo away, Missandei came to her door, "My lord, Your Majesty called you to discuss something important."

"I'm going right now."

Soon Jack came to the top of the Great Pyramid, and saw the refreshed Daenerys. It was obvious that after being nourished, she had a good night's sleep.

Jack came to sit down opposite Daenerys, and Dany asked with piercing eyes: "I heard that you act in the name of the Queen's Hand?"

Everything that happened today has been reported to her.

"Why, you don't want to? Then I go?"

"No, I didn't say I don't want to. Tomorrow I will officially grant you the position of Queen's Hand. In addition, I decided to stay in Meereen to learn how to govern. Are you willing to assist me?"

"Something happened to Astapor and Yunkai?" Jack asked first.

"How do you know?" Daenerys was surprised, but no one informed Jack.

"I guess, the slave owners of Yunkai are not dead, and slavery will definitely resume after you leave, and the ruling council you left in Astapor is even more fragile."

Dany pursed her pink lips, and said with a little shame, "Yunkai did resume slavery after I left, and Astapor was also controlled by a butcher named Cleon."

At this time, Dani has realized that slavery cannot be eradicated by military strikes alone.

"This is normal, but this is not something we should consider now. The first thing we need to solve is the economy. We need to establish a new economic system. After the slaves are freed, no merchants will come to Meereen to do business."

Dany didn't know what to do for a while, so she could only tentatively say: "Perhaps, we can sell salt, copper, Giscari wine, olives, and olive oil."

Jack shook his head, "If these things are profitable enough, then this place wouldn't be called Slaver's Bay.

Copper was worthless, and salt and guiscari wine were not of much profit.

The only ones that make a decent profit are olives and olive oil, and wine, just barely. "

Dani frowned, "But the olive trees have been lost by the slave owners, and so have the vines. We will not be able to restart these trades in a short time."

"This is the problem. Without the slave trade, we basically can only sit on the mountain and live on the money you snatched from Astapor. How much do you have now?"

"About 860 million golden dragons, enough for us to support for a while to figure out a solution."

"If there is no war, it can indeed last for a while, but what if there is a war?"

"You mean the slaveholders of Yunkai are coming to attack us?"

"The slaveholders of Yunkai are just one of them. You freed Meereen, and it will take months for the news to spread.

The slaves in other lands would be ready to move, especially Volantis, all Yunkai'i's allies. "

At this moment, Dani realized that the situation might be more serious than she imagined, "Then can you do anything?"

Seeing that Jack didn't speak for a while, Dani narrowed her eyes slightly, and directly used the beauty trick, and slipped into Jack's arms.

"Since you have said it, there must be a way. Tell me."

However, Jack, who had already had a good time in the morning, was still able to enter the sage state at this time, unmoved.

Seeing that Jack was unmoved, Dani continued to say coquettishly, "Then what do you want?"

"money!"
