Chapter 119: Long Winter II

Ever since the Battle of Winterfell, Lyn felt that Sansa and Tyrion's relationship had become different.

Sure enough, not long after Sansa arrived here, they lived together.

After all, they are a couple who have gone through a formal wedding, so it is reasonable for them to live together again.

Linn knows that Sansa is an ambitious person, but under the current situation, her father Eddard has to surrender even if he is alive. What can she do? What can she dare to do?

Tyrion did not refute after hearing Linn's somewhat teasing words, but instead smiled proudly,

He is content with his current life, a peaceful life, a beautiful wife and a child who will be born soon, plus there is a place to display his talents.

His dream life is nothing more than this!

It's just that the target is a different person...

"Okay, let's talk about business!" Lin En said seriously:

"Snow has also begun to fall at Storm's End. It seems that the power of the long winter is still strengthening. Should everyone north of the Blackwater River move here?"

Neither Ronald nor Tyrion understands the changing of seasons, but it doesn't matter, someone does.

Ronald stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, we met with several professors at the university before we came. They turned out to be bachelors in the city who specialize in seasonal changes,"

"Their opinion is that the long winter will continue to intensify, and there are currently no signs of slowing down!"

Linn nodded, indicating that he understood.

Now the University of Storm's End is the largest teaching institution in Westeros, and it is also a research institution that brings together all the top scholars. Many of the bachelors in the city have already come here.

They gave up their bachelor's status, and after swearing allegiance to Lynn, they obtained permission to teach and continue research in the university, and even received financial support from the university for their research projects.

Several professors who have studied history and meteorology for many years asserted that the long winter is getting stronger and stronger and is far from over, so preparations must be made as soon as possible.

"Since that's the case, let's start making arrangements! Can Hebend still be able to bear so many people?" Linn frowned and asked Ronald,

Ronald shook his head and said, "I can't bear it! The Reach has also been affected by the long winter, and food production has been decreasing. Now there is a big gap. If the people from the King's Realm and the Western Realm are moved here again, where will they be placed?

?What should we do about the food shortage?”

Tyrion frowned and said tentatively: "There is no need to move all the people from the Western Territory. The influence of the long winter has not reached that far yet. Don't let everyone from the King's Territory come over either!"

Next, Tyrion introduced his idea to Lyn,

He believed that people from the royal family could move into King's Landing. The Battle of King's Landing a year ago had left the huge city of King's Landing empty of ten rooms. It could be used with a little repair. Moreover, it was close to the Forbidden Forest and there was no shortage of heating wood. As long as food was needed, it could be used.

It can keep up and can accommodate a large number of civilians.

Moreover, doing so not only reduces the risks and costs of relocation, but also reduces resettlement fees. At the same time, it is easier to manage by gathering people together. After all, these people have been managed by the church for many years and must be transformed in order to integrate into the kingdom.

Lin En nodded. He was not worried about the food problem. He would borrow it from the Iron Bank in the worst case!

Now it was not Lin En who was begging Tie Jin Kuo, but Tie Jin Kuo who was begging him.

Linn rolled his eyes and said to Ronald: "Go to the representatives of the Iron Bank and tell them that I want to repay this year's loan!"

"Return? At this time?" Ronald was surprised! Nowadays, things are tight. Even breaking a gold coin in half is not enough. Why are you so anxious to return it?

Tyrion also doesn't understand that the Iron Bank's debt collection method is nothing more than supporting hostile forces. But now Westeros is almost completely unified and has no opponents.

And now in the long winter, survival is the biggest problem. Who would think of seeking death at this time!

Lin En did not explain to them why, and the two of them followed the order and left.

The representative of the Iron Bank was ecstatic when he found out that Linn was going to pay back the money. He kept expressing his gratitude and returned to Braavos three days later with three shiploads of gold coins.

A month later, bad news came from the Iron Bank!

Their treasury was actually stolen!!!

The place where the gold is stored in the iron gold warehouse is strictly kept secret. It is one of their top secrets and few people in the world know about it.

In fact, the location is in an abandoned mine when they were founded. There is only one exit. There are guards guarding it day and night. These guards are all slaves who were born and raised here and are extremely loyal.

Who would have thought that someone could sneak in without anyone noticing and steal all the countless gold inside without being discovered by any guards? This is simply impossible!

So much gold, even if it is loaded in a horse-drawn carriage, would take a month. How could it suddenly disappear?

The theft of gold this time almost caused the Iron Bank to collapse. Fortunately, they kept it strictly confidential and no one knew about it for the time being. But there is no airtight wall in the world. If the Iron Bank suddenly cannot borrow money, sooner or later it will be noticed. When the time comes,

They must die without a burial place.

Fortunately, at this time, His Majesty Lin En of the Kingdom of Storms suddenly offered to purchase a large amount of food and even pay part of the money in advance. This is simply a great benefactor who provides help in times of need!

The Iron Bank quickly buys grain from various places in Essos, and then transports it to Westeros non-stop.

The food from the Iron Bank has taken over Lin En's food supply, and Lin En's gold coins have solved the gold shortage in the Iron Bank. Everyone gets what they need, so happy!

The fourth year of long winter,

The snowfall line continues to move south, and it starts to snow in Highgarden, which has never snowed before! Fortunately, Linn is well prepared. With a lot of gold, food from the Essos continent is constantly arriving, and Westeros's

There was no food shortage among people.

Now all the people in Westeros have gathered south of the Blackwater, and north of the Blackwater River, there are very few people left in King's Landing. Moreover, I heard that the north has not seen the sun for a year, and there is a terrible long night.

It happened after all!

The horror of the long night is not in its coldness, which is already very cold, but in its destructive power.

No matter how cold the winter is, there are always animals and plants that can survive because they can see the sun.

But if it is a long night, the absence of the sun for a long time will cause all the local plants to become extinct and the ecology will collapse on a large scale. Even if the long night passes in the future, recovery will take a very long time.

Everyone is praying, and they thank His Majesty Lin En for his gift and help, otherwise most of them would not be able to survive this long winter.

More and more people worship Lin En as a god!

At the same time, many people suggested that His Majesty Lin En should unify the continent. With countless achievements, he should no longer be called a king, but should be an emperor, Emperor Lin En!

The fifth year of long winter,

It has been snowing in Highgarden for several months, the North has not seen the sun for two years, and King's Landing has also begun to enter darkness!

The Iron Treasury was stolen again!

The sixth year of long winter,

Linn stood on the Arm of Dorne! Looking at the Stone Step Islands in the distance.

The Arm of Dorne was a land bridge connecting the two continents of Westeros and Essos. It was located on the narrow sea between the current Broken Arm of Dorne and the disputed land of Essos. It is now broken into

The Stepstone Islands.

About 12,000 years ago, the First Men came across the sea from Essos through the Arm of Dorne and had a war with the Aboriginal Children of the Forest in Westeros.

Ancient ballads say that the greenseers cast powerful spells that raised sea levels, swept across the land, and shattered the Arm of Dorne.

Since then, the connection between the two continents has been severed!

But today, Lin En came here, and behind him were two giant dragons and countless warriors!
