Chapter 367: Braavos
The multi-day sea trip was not as bizarre and adventurous as Winnie had expected, and the main development of ice and fire was not above the sea, and there were not as many pirates.
Because only two continents had a relationship with the main civilizations, the profits of navigation were not as high as expected, and the goods traded were almost the same, so the main economic gains were still in the shops near the port.
Without the swarming merchant ships, there would be no pirates, but there are also people in nearby ports who don't mind doing a little bit of business.
The two of them arrived at Braavos, northwest of Essos, a hundred and eight thousand miles from Meereen Yuankai, where the Targaryen girls were.
However, as soon as he stepped into the continent of Essos, Yi Huan sensed the existence of the world's energy, the energy storage of the distant southeast, and there was only one main person in the ice and fire world in that location, the storm Daenerys.
"Dragon girl...... Yi Huan's face showed a strange smile, and he slowly muttered to himself.
Rejecting the slave transport characteristic of Essos, Yi Huan used money to find a carriage common in Westeros, and Braavos had all kinds of coins, whether it was Essos' or Targaryen's or even the virtuous king's.
But it doesn't matter, the Magic Gold can make anyone think that they are receiving the gold they want.
Fortunately, the people of the Ice and Fire World don't have any concept of finance, otherwise the various types of gold coins would have been enough to make King's Landing go bankrupt.
But now it's almost over, and the Lannisters still owe a lot of money to the Iron Vault of Essos, something Tyrion knew as Chancellor of the Exchequer.
The Iron Treasury is a bank-like organization in Essos. Some resemble the Medici family in medieval Florence. However, they are more disciplined. It's not the Faceless Assassin organization that is spying on Yi Huan.
Lifting the curtain of the carriage, Yi Huan stared lazily at a porter who was walking in the same direction, with heavy cargo on his shoulders, several fulcrums covered with calluses, and from his countenance, it was obvious that he had been malnourished for a long time.
Noticing Yi Huan's gaze, he seemed a little cringe, even a little flustered. He didn't dare to look at Yi Huan, just like a low-class poor person.
But Yi Huan didn't withdraw his gaze, still staring at him with so much interest, and after a while, the poor porter saluted Yi Huan slightly, and then turned an alley and quickly disappeared.
"Nasty flies?" Winnie on the side asked as she fanned the wind.
"yes." Yi Huan smiled, "I sue him in his head, I hate surveillance, this is the first time, the next time to start." See one, kill one. ”
"They're not going to give up." Winnie thought as she spoke.
"I know." Yi Huan nodded. "The Faceless ones will also send people, and they will send people who they don't think they will be seen by me, that's their idea and practice, and I think ...... No one will escape my perception, so they will all die. ”
"If it's so troublesome, why don't you just let them disappear."
"The person who is hidden is the most difficult to find, especially if he hides only for the sake of hiding, unless he exterminates the people of a city, there will definitely be fish that slip through the net, there is no need to make such a big move." Yi shrugged his shoulders, the Faceless Assassins were unprofitable.
As for the practice of spying on Yi Huan, it is obvious that someone is buying his intelligence at a large price, and the Faceless One is also in the business of an intelligence dealer, and those who are interested in him, Yi Huan thinks that it is either Dorne or Stannis.
The two forces that are both interested in the continent of Westeros, the former may have this idea, the latter has been doing this, Stannis has a friend and a military advisor The Witch in Card, who understands the power of wizards, is even more interested in wizards like Yi Huan.
Yi Huan's guess was right, the person who spent a lot of money to buy his information was none other than Stannis, who often traveled back and forth between the two continents, and as he had just received a large debt from the Iron Vault, he spared no effort in purchasing information.
At this time, he was struggling with the mess that had followed the defeat in King's Landing.
Westeros' continental power is intricate, but there are protagonists and supporting characters, and the King of King's Landing, the capital of the Seven Kingdoms, is undoubtedly one of the most central characters in this game.
Baratheon is the king's family, and the old kingdom Robert Baratheon married Cersei Lannister and gave birth to a prince, but unfortunately this prince is the child of Cersei and Jaime, the pure illegitimate son of the Lannister family.
There was no blood relationship with the Baratheon family, and after the death of the old king, King's Landing unknowingly changed hands, and Baratheon's name became Lannister's.
As the younger brother of the old king, of course Stannis Baratheon would not agree, in fact, he didn't care if the blood of the kid on the Iron Throne belonged to his brother, he just wanted to get the Iron Throne.
Even if he hadn't thought so, he would have done so under Robert's unfair treatment, and the dynasty of House Baratheon should not be in the hands of fools, referring to Lan Li, his younger brother.
It shouldn't be handed over to the Lannisters, and even if that kid is really a descendant of the Baratheon family, he wouldn't care, after all, there are still few brothers and sons who have killed each other for the throne since ancient times, and the rumors of Cersei and Jaime incest just gave him a just-in-time reason.
In the battle for the Iron Throne, there is no such thing as family affection and love.
He needed to go north to win the allegiance of more people in more of his family, but again, the golden gold in the Iron Vault was an indispensable resource, and soon news of the arrival of wizards from King's Landing in Essos reached Davos Seaworth.
Stannis's most capable men.
"It's so hot here." Winnie fanned the wind as she pulled back the curtains on both sides, "It's much hotter than Westeros." ”
The city-state of Essos has more of a Mediterranean style, the same environment and the same temperature, but the heat is estimated to be no problem soon, and if the absorption end is lost, the energy will be out of balance, and the winter will sweep the world sooner or later.
"Maybe you can ask Aria for tips on staying cool, she's always hot there." Yi Huan took out the magic lamp and shook it gently in front of Winnie.
"If you want to let her out, then I won't agree." Winnie gave him a blank look, "Just bless me with a thermostat spell." ”
Yi Huan took back the magic lamp and replaced it with a magic wand, although Alia lives in the magic lamp, but in most cases, the internal environment of the magic lamp will remain relatively stable.
This is different from the bumpy carriage, which staggers to the busiest inn in Braavos. (To be continued......)
