Game of Thrones: Overlord of the Deep Sea

Chapter 71 You Underestimated Him Too Much
In the evening, the heat dissipated, but Meereen was still brightly lit and full of people who came out to stroll.

After Jack returned to the Prime Minister's Tower, Vetteril immediately ran over.

"Brother, the Deputy Prime Minister's people came today and brought several boxes of gold, silver and jewelry, as well as a lot of porcelain."

"Take me to take a look." Jack didn't expect Manduo to be so efficient in handling affairs. After dinner in the morning, things were delivered in the afternoon.

A total of five large boxes were sent, equivalent to about [-] gold dragons. It seems that Manduo already understood what Jack meant during the dinner.

They can embezzle half at most, but half of the embezzlement must be handed over to Jack, otherwise no one will be embezzled.

In addition, Daenerys licensed Jack to pay taxes in the second district, so Jack could get [-] gold dragons in one go.

The prosperity of the second district is second only to the central district under Dani's direct jurisdiction, and the tax revenue every three months is about [-] gold dragons.

According to Jack's speculation, the tax revenue of the central area under Dani's charge is worth [-] to [-] gold dragons.

Calculated in this way, Meereen's tax revenue would be 40 every three months, and 160 million golden dragons a year.

But it is a pity that such a high tax cannot last for a year. After the construction of the Kaiser Pass and the artificial canal is completed, the tax will definitely be cut in half.

Maybe after replanting olive trees and vines in the salt land, Meereen's fiscal revenue can be restored to a million gold dragons a year.

It seems that there are a lot of million gold dragons, but there are more places to spend money.

Not to mention anything else, the [-] Meereen garrison, the [-] free folk legions, and the [-] Unsullied, it would cost a lot of money to feed the [-] troops.

In addition, there are no slaves in Meereen now, and the servants in the Great Pyramid are paid a lot.

There are other miscellaneous expenses, and one-tenth of the tax for a year is not bad.

What's more, with so much money, only half of it may end up in Dani's hands.

After seeing that there was no problem with the belongings sent by Manduo, Jack ordered his servants to send the five boxes of gold and silver to the warehouse he bought at the dock.

In order to send the bribes and "filial piety" received back to Atlantis more conveniently, Jack bought a large warehouse directly at the pier.

Every time the giant wave merchants travel to and from Meereen, they will bring the money back to Atlantis by the way.

And the servants and guards of the Prime Minister's Tower are all Atlanteans, so they are trustworthy.

At the same time, Atlantis formulated very strict criminal laws and surveillance against corruption and bribery. The Seagull Organization is a surveillance department that Jack just established.

The sitting system not only caught the Son of the Harpy in Meereen, but also the little bird of Varys.

At that time, Jack suddenly felt that the establishment of the intelligence department needed to be speeded up, because no matter in what era, intelligence occupies a very important position.

So Jack formed Seagull, which is divided into two departments.

They are the White Gull who monitors the interior of Atlantis, and the Gray Gull who monitors the whole world.

Due to the particularity of this department, both departments were established by Jack himself.

In order to build a big framework, Jack racked his brains to recall the organizational frameworks such as Jinyiwei, Black Ice Platform, and bad people in the history of his previous life and novels.

Finally got the seagull's frame out before the hair fell out.

The highest level is the Commander Seagull.

Then there are two white gull commanders and two gray gull commanders.

Five official positions are set up at the principal and deputy levels, with a total of ten people, who are the central power controllers of the Seagull Organization.

Further down is the first-level seagull to the third-level seagull, and the third-level seagull is the lowest.

Level 30 seagulls are responsible for towns with a population of more than [-].

The second-level seagull is responsible for towns with a population of more than 20.

The third-level seagull is responsible for towns with a population of more than 10, and those with a population of less than [-] are also under the jurisdiction of the third-level seagull.

And in the end, there are thousands of households, hundreds of households, and ten households under these levels of Seagull.

Ten households manage the brigade and the small team, with five members in the brigade and three in the small team.

The total number of brigades and squads under each ten households cannot exceed three teams.

These are members with a formal establishment, and in addition to them, there are a large number of informants to be developed.

The informants are not organized and their identities are kept secret, and they will only be rewarded each time they provide information.

In this way, the basic framework of Seagull is established, and the next step is to select people, and then build the framework and slowly fill it with flesh and blood.

As for the task of Commander Seagull, Jack handed it over to Vetteril.

This little girl has grown rapidly under the guidance of various teachers, and her little head is no longer as smooth as before, and her whole body reveals a spirit of agility.

Although the little girl has never been in contact with intelligence work, Jack has already given her the framework and ideas, so just learn slowly.

Varys was a slave and an actor at the beginning, didn't he also weave a big web covering the world, and was also called an octopus spider.

And Vitril is much more reliable than the octospider. After all, since she was 11 years old, she grew up drinking the milk given by Jack, so the relationship between the two naturally goes without saying.

In addition, Jack seldom goes to the battlefield now, and the long sword tsunami that helped him a lot in the past is now just a decoration.

Not only did Jack have a tsunami in his hand, he also had two Valyrian longswords.

One of them was cut off by the tsunami during Jack's testing, and was then smelted into five spear heads to create five spears.

In the end, Jack officially awarded the Valyrian Dragon King armor and the tsunami to Vetterier.

The meaning of this set of armor and long sword is like Shangfang's sword, which is a symbol of Jack's power. As long as he is wearing armor and holding a long sword, it means that Jack is in person.

Jack's full trust also moved the little girl to tears, making her study harder.

At this time, in the Gru family's mansion, Ivan was complaining to Mando that Jack was a vampire.

He just learned that half of the golden dragon embezzled by his father was handed over to Jack Poseidon.

There was no anger on Mantu's face, "Ivan, do you know why we have to give as much as Jack said he wants?"

Ivan shook his head, "I don't know, but even if he wants half of it, we can pay less, and he doesn't know how much tax we collect."

"Hehe." Manduo sneered, motioning for Ivan to pour himself a glass of wine.

Yiwen immediately understood what his father meant, picked up the flagon and filled the mandala.

"Yes, it seems that you have indeed learned something from being with Jack. At least your eyesight is much stronger than before."

After taking a sip of wine to moisten his throat, Manduo continued:

"Son, you underestimate Jack Poseidon. Daenerys has seen her before, and even often. Do you think that Meereen's current policies are beyond what she can think of?"

Ivan's face froze, and he said weakly: "Isn't this what Her Majesty the Queen proposed at the court meeting? We have all seen it."
