With the sound of "Ding!", Josie and Daenerys completed the transaction. Daenerys's warehouse had four more rifles and 400 rounds of ammunition, while Josie's warehouse had
120 ounces more gold.
And unlike the last transaction, which was some gold jewelry, this time the gold was all melted gold nuggets, exactly 12 pieces. Obviously Daenerys also prepared a large amount of gold in advance for the purpose of the transaction - although it was
In two different worlds, the languages, characters, weights and measures are actually different, but these differences will be automatically converted or translated by the trading system, which is very convenient.
Seeing so much gold at once, Qiao Xi couldn't help but feel a little excited.
This is a full 3.4 kilograms of gold. If converted according to the price of gold before he traveled through time, it would be more than one million soft girl coins.
Although his financial situation was not bad in his previous life, except for real estate, he had never seen so much cash.
I have seen more gold than this, but that was in a gold shop.
Resisting the urge to take out the gold and play with it, Josie was about to shut down the system. How to cash out so much gold had to be considered. Although the last sale of gold went smoothly, the shopkeeper named Old Hawk seemed to be okay.
It's true, but now that the amount of gold has increased 12 times, it's hard to say what will happen.
"Wait, Josie!" But at this moment Daenerys stopped him.
"What's the matter?" Josie asked somewhat unexpectedly. After all, Daenerys was leading the Dorax army back to Slaver's Bay to put down the rebellion at this time, so she was quite busy.
"I like this book very much, especially the description of the qualities a monarch needs to possess, which makes me feel deeply. If I could have read this book a few years ago, I am afraid that Slaver's Bay would not be the place it is now.
In such a chaotic situation, the content of this book is still relatively limited. For example, the book does not introduce the details of the monarchs mentioned. I am very interested in the experiences of these monarchs, so can you help me find some more information?
Are there more books about these aspects?" Daenerys said, holding the copy of The Prince that Josie had traded to her before.
As an exiled princess, Daenerys grew up constantly on the run and rarely lived a peaceful life for a few days.
So let alone the monarch’s education, even the basic education he received was very imperfect.
In the past, when there were fewer people and less land, we didn’t feel much of it.
But as her subordinates became more and more powerful, Daenerys's shortcomings in this area began to appear.
How to reconcile the conflicts between various forces and classes in the territory in your hands, how to control your subordinates, how to govern the place, and what kind of monarch you should be.
These are what she needs to learn.
And this has become one of the biggest reasons why she is still stranded in Slaver's Bay... Due to the lack of governance experience, various city-states in Slaver's Bay are constantly in chaos. Not only is the power in her hands unable to continue to grow, but it is constantly being consumed.
Her original resources and power.
As for several of her important subordinates, they are also helping to teach her what kind of monarch she should be, such as Tyrion who just defected to her not long ago.
But what these people want is to make Daenerys the monarch they want, rather than really helping Daenerys become the monarch she wants.
In the past, Daenerys couldn't see through this, she simply felt that she wasn't doing a good enough job, so she made constant compromises for it.
However, the content of this book seemed light, but the key point of the theory of monarchy made her understand a lot of things.
Daenerys has been able to reach this point because her understanding ability is very strong. In the past, it was just her vision that limited her.
And after she obtained the plane trader, she contacted Qiao Xi and saw this book "Monarch".
A brand new world has already opened in front of her.
She also became interested in various related literature and history of the world where Josie lived.
"Of course, but it will take some time. After all, there are quite a lot of related books." Qiao Xi agreed without the slightest hesitation.
As the only trading partner at this stage, Daenerys's rapid growth is a good thing for him.
Only if Daenerys matures quickly and becomes a qualified monarch, will she be able to avoid the many detours she took in the original plot in the future, and will not be as tragic as her final death in the original drama.
Only in this way can Josie and Daenerys maintain their deal.
And if Daenerys dies, the plane beacon will find a new host. This process is completely random.
It would be fine if the new host was also a lord, noble or the like, but if it was bound to a beggar or someone else with nothing, it would not be fun.
Qiao Xi also had to spend energy to support the other party and wait for the other party to have a certain amount of wealth before trading with him.
So the first time he met the beacon, he was able to find a rich and powerful host like Daenerys. Josie's luck was actually very good.
It’s hard to say whether we will have such good luck when the new beacon is produced next year.
Therefore, in addition to making money from trading with Daenerys, Josie is also happy to help Daenerys in other aspects.
Even if he wasn't worried about irritating Daenerys too much, Josie would have wanted to tell her all the plot of Game of Thrones.
"Thank you so much. Originally, after returning to Slaver's Bay this time, I planned to go to Westeros as soon as possible. But now, I plan to study for a while and accumulate more strength. In addition, if possible, I hope to
Equip the entire Unsullied army with this rifle." Daenerys said.
"...I'm afraid this can't be done in a short time. After all, I'm different from you. I'm just a small figure in my world. It's okay to have dozens or hundreds of guns, but it's not that easy to have eight thousand.
Yes." After hearing Daenerys' words, Josie said helplessly.
Although the United States does not ban guns, if you want to buy 8,000 guns at once, you obviously have to buy them from arms dealers.
If he does this, Josie will surely come to the forefront.
And as a boy who is only 15 years old, he has a lot of wealth but does not have the power to match it. He is afraid that he will be eaten up in a matter of minutes.
After all, Josie is still alone and lacks help.
But trustworthy and reliable helpers are not so easy to find, especially for Josie.
Josie's full name is Josie Kahn, and she is of Austrian origin. To a certain extent, she is a fellow countryman with the mustache.
When Mustache annexed Austria five years ago, his predecessor's parents fled Austria with him and immigrated to the United States.
When they were in Austria, their family had some assets, but in order to escape, they basically sold all their original assets at a low price. After arriving in the United States, they bought this small apartment and basically fell into the abject poverty class.
My father found a job at the port to support the family of three.
Although they have stayed in the United States for five years, because only my father understands English, the family has not integrated into the local society very quickly.
Although my predecessor also went to school in the United States for several years, apart from becoming slightly proficient in English, I actually didn’t learn much, and due to my own personality, I didn’t make many friends.
What's even more unfortunate is that just over three months ago, when my predecessor was not at home, the couple who were at home ate an insufficiently cured sausage and died of food poisoning. They died very hastily.
This was obviously a huge blow to a 15-year-old boy who was new to the world.
Even if it weren't for the help of the priest in the community, the original person would not know how to bury his parents - and that would basically use up the little money left by his parents.
Since then, the original person has never gone to school again.
After three months of being confused, he was replaced by the current Josie.
Such a monotonous interpersonal relationship makes it impossible for Josie to find a trustworthy friend or relative.
After hearing Josie's explanation, Daenerys nodded to express her understanding. After all, she had also experienced Josie's current predicament.
"But speaking of reliable helpers... would you like me to send you a few Unsullied?" Daenerys said after thinking for a while.
"The Unsullied?" Hearing Daenerys' words, Josie couldn't help but feel a little moved.
