Chapter 89
For example, Whitebeard and Barristan, who are disguised in front of them, seem to have been loyal to four monarchs and three Royal Family, and now they seem to plan to re-employ with the fifth Lord (Dany).
More exaggerated than Lu Bu, a three-surname slave?
Not really, not to mention Barristan's achievements in quelling the Ninepenny Kings Rebellion, nor his single-handed rescue of Mad King Aerys' life during the Duskendale Rebellion.
Like the battle of Usurper, he was in the Battle of the Trident with Prince Rhaegar, Rhaegar died in Ruby Ford, Barristan himself survived unscathed until he recovered from his serious injuries, Targaryen Dynasty is over.
As for why he didn't kill Robert Baratheon to avenge the former Lord... Remember the first-generation divorced man "Prince of Dragonflies" Duncan?
Because Dany's uncle Duncan betrayed his marriage with House Baratheon, King at that time could only let Princess Rhaelle marry Storm City to appease Duke Baratheon's shame and anger, and Robert was Rhaelle's eldest grandson.
Put it in normally, this side bloodline is useless, but it can provide an excuse for the subjects at the critical moment - peace of mind to the new king to acknowledge allegiance's self-comfort.
"Khaleesi, can you give me more wives?" Effendi leaned over and said to Dany awkwardly.
In the process of going through the 1st Step of the marriage system, several couples as examples are all older horse men.
Dany knows too much about his family's habit of messing around with people. If he chooses a young couple, there will be no more than a dozen or even a dozen of young and beautiful female horse men. If there is a large-scale cheating phenomenon, she will What's the point of the "model couple"?
So, she deliberately chose a group of elderly people to get along with the children, the female horse men are old and degenerate, there must be few lover-horse men have no chastity and concept of marriage, female horse men Male horse men are generally not rejected - more bed companions are good for her, and with young and beautiful female horse men to choose from, who will hold hands with old horse men?
The old horse men are too old and powerless.
In this way, the two old horse men can live a solid life after they get married!
"You forgot so soon?" Dany stared at the old horse men, holding up the Horse Men Legal Code and scolded: "It has your signature on it, and you swore to abide by the "Horse Men Legal Code". Horse Men Legal Code ”.
How is the legal code stipulated?
A Khalasar is not allowed to marry more than one wife until there is no major war and the male to female ratio is higher than 1:1.2 !"
In fact, as long as the ratio of males to females is less than 1:1, marrying multiple wives is beneficial to the development of the tribe, but a buffering process needs to be considered.
Perhaps the ratio of unmarried men and women was 1:1.01 at this time, and immediately after a collective second marriage, it became 1:0.9, or even higher, which disturbed the harmony of Khalasar.
"hehehe...I know, I know," Effendi rubbed his hands together, nodded like garlic, "Khaleesi, there aren't many old people in the new batch of slaves. I don't know though. How to calculate that ratio, but obviously there are more women than men!"
hearing this Dany's expression froze, this old guy is really right!
There are almost no old male horse men among the newly added horse men, but there are more female horse men with full faces.
Is it difficult for Dao Idol to have stronger survivability than male horse men and female horse men?
"Can you do it?" Jorah expression looking down on looking at the old man with a pigtail braid on the back of his head, "I think you are a lot older, and you don't have a good life for a few years, so don't. What a waste of oneself's few remaining lifespans!"
"You—" the old horse men blushed, and if he was a few years younger, he would have rushed the knife at him.
“Why do you want so many wives?” Dany asked.
"Help me raise horses!"
"Isn't your company all herdsman?"
"Ai, even if I am a Commander, I have to If I have more wives, I can let them help me herd."
Dany asked with a blank face: "Then what are you doing?"
"I instruct them to feed the horses. Hey! I'm getting older, and I don't have a good life for a few years, so I have to pay attention to my health." The old man argues with the courage of one's convictions.
Is it like I command you to let go, sitting in the comfort of your office and verbally commanding?
Dany's mouth twitches.
Ser Jorah was stunned, "This is an old fogey, it's such a beautiful idea, this is trying to be a nobleman!"
"I can allow you to marry two wives, but they must be Voluntary. And because of your extravagant style, you can't choose a wife among the new horse people, as long as the white-haired woman in our original Khalasar is willing to marry you, you can marry two wives." Dany said.
Effendi asked around, but no one wanted to be his wife.
When he asked the reason, a female horse men in her fifties said: "I oneself also have work assigned by the tribe to do, marrying you not only does not help me, but asks me to help you. Let the horses go, there is no shortage of food and drink in Khalasar, why should I suffer with you?"
These words made Effendi blushed and almost ran away.
Dany next to him was laughed heartily, and seemed not at all worried about the failure of Oneself's "Model Couples Project".
The female horse men told the truth!
horse men are barbaric, that's right, the Khalasar system is backward, but primordial society is close to Public Ownership, horse people work for the tribe, Dany guarantees that everyone will have food and clothing, old horse Men do not need to raise children to prevent old age, nor do they need the support of their wives.
At least for now.
"In this way, any married female horse men can be allocated an extra glass of kumiss every morning." After Dany smiled, he casually proposed a solution, "Their husbands can't grab the kumiss, and also Don't interfere with their work."
Before he finished speaking, many old women horse men's eyes began to shine.
But Dany's not finished yet!
"In any marriage concluded under the witness of dragon and me, the husband must hand over the property of oneself to the wife, and the wife is responsible for guarding the husband's chastity and property. If a child is born, Khalasar is responsible for helping Raised, and reward mother with half a catty of horse meat every day."
"Effendi, I would like to marry you." The female horse men who had just dismissed the old man excitedly yelled.
"Effendi, marry me, although I know you are poor, but I don't dislike it." Another old woman, horse men, jumped.
"Effendi, I'm going to marry you, so I can be a second wife."
"Effendi..."
It seems that In an instant, Effendi, the old bachelor, took on the aura of a national husband.
"No, I don't..." Effendi looked towards the female horse men cheering to marry oneself, as if it was a Banshee of baring fangs and brandishing claws.
Well, the goblin of the Old Monster of Blackmountain is not Xiao Qian.
"Khaleesi, I'm not getting married, I don't want a wife, I don't want one." He begged Dany with a crying voice.
"No, as you oneself said, if you want two wives, you can't have one less." Dany held back his laughter, tried his best to straighten his face, and scolded severely.
In the end, Effendi was wronged and chose two old female horse men of hair grey-white. In addition to his oneself, the twelve old horse men of the herdsman and artisan company also successfully got rid of the single.
But they only chose one wife.
Then Dany called out Big Black and placed it on the desk. She sat on the side herself, and the happy dozen or so female horse men held the sad-faced male horse men. Proceed forward to bow and worship.
First to Khaleesi, then to Mother of Mountains to the northeast, and finally to Big Black.
Big Black didn't accept their gifts in vain. He drew a sketch of the two on a parchment with his paws "shua shua shua", and wrote "marriage" in Chinese characters taught by Dany. Certificate" three words.
Like a printer, Big Black is fast, getting 13 engagements in just over half an hour.
In order to celebrate this epoch-making collective marriage, Dany also sent people to the city to buy more than a dozen cattle and sheep, dozens of barrels of wine, from 5 pm to 9 pm, connected to four boats Sailors, everyone completely relaxed once.
Well, even Euron in the cage was given a roast leg of lamb and a large jug of wine.
The moon and stars are sparse, the sea in the north is sparkling, and the reflection is faint and cold. Also like countless nights for thousands of years, in the high Heavenly Flight Hall the drunken stupor.
The pyramids of Egypt were prepared for the afterlife, but the pyramids of Astapor were the residences of the wealthiest slave-masters. Their pyramids had no spires, and the vacant platforms above were built into gorgeous hanging gardens.
Every day at dusk, the Good Masters ordered silk lanterns to be lit on every flight of stairs, and all the pyramids were illuminated.
But the streets, squares, and arenas on the ground floor were pitch black, and in the darkest barracks imaginable, some little boys were feeding their puppies with leftovers—that was where they were Pets acquired on the day of castration.
Even on the merchant ship, Dany and the others could see the yachts with colorful lanterns slowly cruising toward the Worm River, and they heard soft music and the laughter of men and women in the distance.
These Ghis slave-masters will park their yachts by the water's small islands, and young men and women with black and red upright hair will walk on the shallows, enjoying endless food and wine, and some adult fun, Unbridled, ignoring others to watch.
On the top deck, Dany looked out into the distance, and said with emotion: "Astapor slave-master's life is more extravagant than those Merchant Princes in Free City."
"Good Masters towering into the sky" The Pyramid of Clouds, built of the bones of countless slaves, the red wine in their glasses is like the blood of slaves." Whitebeard frowned: "bricks and blood built Astapor, and bricks and blood her people.
This is an old poem that a Maester taught me when I was a kid, and I never knew it was so true.
Her Highness the Princess, maybe you don't want to hear it, but I still want to Discourage you from buying those slave Warriors.
--Anyone who is involved in the slave trade is guilty.
That's what the Maester told me too, buyers will promote the market, buy Slave has a positive effect on the slave trade."
"Hehe, it is rare, ordinary people are not qualified to accept Maester's teaching." Jorah faintly smiled.
Dany laughed, indifferently said: "Arstan, I've made a decision."
"Ugh..." Whitebeard stomped on his cane, clearly upset. calm.
"Astapor has a slack defense, why didn't Khalasar knock it down?" she asked, seemingly casually.
"Her Highness the Princess, for two reasons." Jorah walked over to the fence, looked at the hilarious horse men on the lower deck, and said earnestly: "Astapor has Unsullied, the story of 3000 Unsullied defending Qohor is true. Yes, this is one of them.
Second, Slaver's Bay is close to the Dothraki Sea, which is very convenient for Khal to come here to sell slaves, and the two sides have formed a stable trade relationship.
horse men why Looting the city?
It's nothing more than gold and silver property, slaves.
If the people of the slave city-state are turned into slaves, who can the horse men sell the slaves to?"
"And, just as Pentos, Norvos, and Myr's Magisters did, the Sons of the Harpy would only be sure to entertain passing Horselords and give them plenty of gifts.
And Khal accepted He'll be on the road soon after the gift, because he's already got what oneself wants—far less expensive than attacking the city."
