Chapter 18 Three years

 Three years later, in 287 years after the conquest, Werther and Gunthor came to Highgarden in a carriage to participate in the tourney held by the Tyrell family. Of course, they were not there to participate in the tourney, but to talk to Renly about something.
Because Highgarden is located between Storm's End and Oldtown, Vert and Renly have communicated through Messenger Crow for daily affairs in the past few years. For more important matters, they often go to Highgarden to discuss things, and also to establish a good relationship with the Tyrell family.

, this is what Robert hopes to see. There are still many families in the Reach who are secretly loyal to Targaryen. The task of stabilizing the southern Reach and Dorne is basically left to Werther and Renly.

In the past three years, Witte first learned the faith crow science. The faith crow is a low-level magical beast and he has magic power, so he learned it quickly. After he made the black iron hoop that represents the faith crow science, he

After graduating from all subjects, he and his three brothers began to write letters to each other.

Robert and Cersei gave birth to a blond little prince Joffrey in 286, and they were happy.

Stannis is still single and unmarried, but it is not clear whether he has a mistress. The second brother only replies in a few lines every time, asking how to increase the gambling revenue of the Incomparable Games. He wants to be a gambling tycoon.
Renly said that Robert sent an illegitimate son named Edric Storm to Storm's End for him to raise, and he also heard that Robert had an illegitimate daughter named Mia Stone in the Vale for several years.

Year old, said he was very shocked.

Werther often wrote to Nymeria to tell her how much he missed her. She was still his fiancée, thinking that the people of Dorne were open and open, and Nymeria was 3 years older than him, so he was afraid that his head would turn green if he wasn't careful.

After several years of online dating, he kept giving money to the woman without even seeing her in person, and finally found out that she was an aunt. Now, Witte has established a relationship with Nymeria first. When the relationship is good, the risk of being cheated on is reduced.

, to avoid being labeled.

There is also her sister Tyene Sand. Because Nymeria changed her surname to Martell, she is considered the heir of Prince Martell. Tyene has also officially become Nymeria's knight attendant, and is still fighting with her father.

Tyer learned to prepare poison, and said that if he treated his sister badly in the future, he would put poison to kill Werther. What did the little girl know?

They heard that Oberon went to the Eastern Continent to work as a mercenary. I haven't seen him recently, and I don't know if it's true or not, but how can I call him Red Viper without wandering around?

The second one was made of a red copper ring: medicine. The doctors of the city were amazed by the common sense things of later generations, such as disinfection with strong alcohol, suturing of catgut, methods of blood transfusion and disease isolation, etc., this year

From the beginning, bachelors everywhere began to stock spirits and surgical supplies, and the mortality rate of casualties in various places was greatly reduced.

The third one to create is the golden ring: economics. The world's economic system is too simple. Even the economic model of the tournament fascinated the bachelors. How can you leave other methods of making money to others?

The four are forging white steel rings: Metallurgy, the forging technology talent bonus brought by the system, while making white steel rings, their skills have also increased a lot. They have made a pedal pulley machine, which is similar to modern sewing machines but not as precise.

Wheels can be used to process jewelry. They are now produced in small quantities in the Academy and Storm's End, and the demand is not high.

The fifth one was a bronze ring: astronomy. Witte majored in mechanics at the current university. He figured out the 24-hour timing method and time measurement method of later generations, and combined it with the mechanics major to design a 24-hour clock. Now Witte

The timekeeping method of Tello Continent is very primitive. In addition to the fact that the bachelor can measure the big seasonal changes, the way of life is the rising and setting of the sun every day. Witte gave the design drawings to the school city for free, and the school city immediately positioned the meridian standard for the location of the school city.

At this time, he used his connections to contact the lords from various places to fund the construction of clock towers in the city. The city sent an astronomer to be responsible for measuring the time and calibrating the clock tower clocks every day. Now all the capitals have built clock towers, and gradually began to spread to other cities.

Popularity. The school city is very motivated to earn money for construction and operation. Apprentices studying architecture, metallurgy and astronomy often send meat to Werther to express their gratitude.

Of course, this type of large clock is the most primitive mechanical structure. Otherwise Werther would not have given the drawings to the school. The way Werther wanted to make money was to make a desk clock that could be placed at home. Because the quartz time adjustment structure has not yet been developed,

Clocks need to be manually calibrated every day, so the city must first spread clock towers in various places. I don’t know how many years it will take to do it myself, or the school city has a strong relationship.

This time I went to Highgarden to prepare to sell the first batch of clocks from Storm's End to the Tyrell family. This is the money-making business for Werther and Renly.

Mages cost money, as Werther and Renly have realized recently. Werther's advanced magic and Renly's intermediate magic can no longer be learned by reading a book. During practice, auxiliary equipment must be used to experience the flow of magic, but to be able to

Equipment that carries magic power must use Valyrian steel. Although the current forging skills cannot produce Valyrian steel, reforging is still possible. Magic auxiliary equipment is not a magic item, but can channel magic power, similar to that of later generations.

Physical and chemical experimental equipment.

According to Dr. Thurgood's book "Inventory", there are estimated to be thousands of Valyrian steel swords, daggers and other weapons circulated in the late Valyrian Dynasty, and there are 227 in Westeros. There are only a few other magical products.

They are all damaged, and there are also some cutlery and jewelry.

Let Renly send people all over the continent to collect pieces of corrugated steel products, and send them to the Citadel to be recast by Werther into magical auxiliary products. After using them, Werther will write down his experience and then transport them back to Storm's End to Renly. Until there is Sky Blue

When Li paid monthly profits to the people at Storm's End, the steward said he had no money, so Werther and Renly began to think of ways to make money.

~~~

As the capital of the Reach, Highgarden has the most beautiful surroundings. The white castle is surrounded by fields and flowers, and there are many golden roses. The city wall is a three-layered form of a ring within a ring. The first and second floors

There are various houses and a well-tended plant maze inside. If there is no one to lead the way, you will not be able to find the city wall gate. Many fortresses in this era used this kind of maze structure to increase the difficulty of siege. Walk one level further inside and you will enter.

With a huge garden, courtyard, spray paint, artificial waterfalls, marble stone corridors and stone carvings, it is indeed the most beautiful castle in the Seven Kingdoms. The Baratheon family's Storm's End looks like a large prison compared to Highgarden.

However, the rule of the Tyrell family is not very righteous, and many of the vassals below are dissatisfied.

About 300 years ago, Aegon the Conqueror burned all the old king and his family of the Reach to death. As steward, Tyrell opened the city gate and surrendered. Aegon appointed the steward as the guardian of the Reach, Duke of Highgarden. The other nobles suddenly became unhappy.

, you need soldiers, food, and nobles. Why should you, Tyrell, be the Duke of Highgarden with a steward? But because of Aegon's strength, he dare not take action. From now on, the Tyrell family can only rely on continuous marriages and interests.

Transport to stabilize.

Garlan Tyrell greeted him at the door of the hall. The fat boy was now a little thinner, and his brother even gave him a nickname: Garlan the Brave.

"Duke Werther, Uncle Gonsol." Garland said hello to the two of them

After eating the crumbled bread and salt from the waiter's plate next to him, Werther asked

"You've gotten stronger, Garland. How many kilograms of training swords do you have now?" Werther's current strength is not inferior to that of an adult. Every time he comes to the High Court, he beats Garland to the ground. The little fat man is very convinced of Werther.

of.

"Now I can practice with a 5-pound sword for an entire morning."

"Where are the Duke of Metz and the old lady?" Although they are relatives, when visiting someone else's house, according to etiquette, you must first visit the host. Gunthor saw a lot of nobles from the Reach gathered around one side of the hall, but he didn't see it.

The two of them asked Garland.

"Father and grandma are in the hall. Renly has arrived. Grandma asked me to pick you up." I said, Garland led the two of them and squeezed into the middle of the crowd.

After squeezing through the crowd and walking to the inner circle, I saw a clock about 1.5 meters high hanging under the wall on one side of the hall. Next to it was Renly, who was dressed in luxurious clothes. He was introducing the functions to Mace and Olenna. "The whole clock starts from the top."

Made of fine sandalwood, the dial is 12 inches in diameter and made of pure silver. Each time number is inlaid with pearls, which is gorgeous and extraordinary."

Renly opened the dial from the side again, revealing the mechanical structure of a clock that was extremely sophisticated in this era;

"The real essence is inside, all designed and produced by Witte himself, with an error of no more than 1 second for twenty days of continuous operation."

After that, every time he mentioned something, the nobles surrounding him let out an exclamation.

When Olenna and Mace saw Werther and Gunthor coming, they simply said, "We'll go to the study later." They were obviously attracted to the clock.
