Chapter 040 Investment Conference


On one side, Aitch is in full swing of modernization, and on the other side, Westeros is already in chaos.These days, Kate, misled by Baerich, mistakes Tyrion for Bran's killer and arrests Tyrion on the way back from King's Landing.Ned Stark is stabbed by the Queen's brother, and Jaime, who stabbed him, escapes.Ned's investigation also gets closer to the truth, and Cersei grows more and more worried.According to the plan, Aitch does not plan to get involved in the near future and concentrate on development.It's November 298, which means that King Lauber is not far from his death, and the Westeros drama will begin after that.By 299 the Red Comet will appear, and Edge's dragon will be ready to hatch.Unlike in the original book, where Daenerys passed by Quells long after the dragon hatched before buying the Unsullied, Aitch planned to go directly to buy the Unsullied.As an aside, there is still a big gap between the plot of the TV series and the plot of the original book, and Daenerys's plot in Quells is very different.According to Edge's attention during this period of time, the world is still generally based on the setting of the TV series, and a few places that are not covered by the TV series are carried out according to the original book.Aitch now has gold and has opened the Mint.One of the most lucrative deals in the world is coinage.Aitch did not launch paper money, although paper money will bring more benefits to Aitch, but the economic and political level has not reached the standard that can make Aitch's paper money recognized by all forces, and it is counterproductive to rush to implement it.Aitch imported a large number of stamping machines from the Bloodline world and transformed them into coinage machines.The currency of the Middle Ages was hammered out by hand, so when watching TV dramas, you can find that most of the coins are not round enough, and the definition of the printed patterns is not the same, which is an inevitable phenomenon in the manual era.Switching to mechanical stamping is different, each coin is the same size, regular shape, and clear lines, so the Aichi became a good coin as soon as it was issued, and it was very popular in the market.This is the advantage of issuing gold and silver coins, because the value of the currency itself does not need to be guaranteed by Edge's credibility, and it will only be after unification that Itch intends to implement paper money.The gold coins issued by Aitch depict Aitch's own family coat of arms.Every nobleman in the world of A Song of Ice and Fire has their own family crest, and the merchandise of these family crests sold well in Edge's previous life.In this life, Aichitu saves trouble, coupled with his identity as a dragonborn, and directly uses the game icon of The Elder Scrolls 5 as his family emblem, that is, a dragon with wings spread.After getting engaged to Daenerys, Aitch changed the crest and increased the dragon head to three heads, which is a three-headed dragon, because the Targaryen's crest is a three-headed dragon, a change that touched Daenerys very much.In the previous life, the English York Dynasty had a rose war, and finally the Tudor dynasty was established, after marrying Elizabeth, the family emblem of the two families was a white rose and a red rose, and after the marriage, it was changed to a two-color rose with red on the outside and white on the inside, which increased the sense of identity of the two forces.The same is true for Edge's change of the family crest here, signifying the merger of the two families (although Daenerys' brother is still alive and the Targaryen family is still there, he is glamorously ignored as he is helpless).Aitch sent people to contact the slave owners of Astapor, and on the other hand, he sent people to contact all the major powers of all the nine free trade city-states to prepare for the investment conference of the Herald Castle.Aitch's current plan for Essos is mainly focused on the two places of Free Trade City and Slave Bay.The operation in Slave Bay had not yet begun, and Aitch on the side of the trading city did not intend to conquer it by force.The lifeblood of these trading cities is in the traders, and after Aitch has mastered a large number of goods from the modern plane, even the original Pirates of the Caribbean world will be reduced to a dumped plane, not to mention a few trading cities?

When Aiqi has mastered the economic lifeline of all cities, then the nine major cities will not bow down?

Aitch issued a notice inviting all the business groups in the nine major trading cities, including special groups such as the Iron Bank in Braavos, the Alchemist in Reese, and even Aitch also made an invitation to the assassination organization "Faceless", and it is unknown if he will come or not.While waiting for representatives from all parties to come, Aiqi purchased a large number of goods in the modern plane, hoarded goods, and waited for the convening of the investment conference.In the blink of an eye, it was time for the conference to convene, and many of the leaders, including the Governor of Illyrio, came to the venue in person or sent spokespersons, and Aitch and Pamo presided over the entire meeting.With Pamo's trade network in the Bloodline world, a large number of sought-after goods were collected in a short period of time, and the production capacity of the modern plane was far beyond the reach of the Middle Ages.All the business groups suddenly found that the whole venue "I have nothing else, I have his fine, I am good and he is cheap", and all the goods are purchased in huge quantities, and they are completely unable to compete.Pantos produces a lot of dairy products and wine, and the cheese sold by Aitch is piled up, and the modern plane is not too simple to blend with alcohol.Kohor produces steel, Rees produces fine brocade, and modern plane blast furnace ironmaking produces more than 1,000 tons of steel a day, and mechanical weaving can be uninterrupted 24 hours a day.Mill's main focus is on glass products, and modern glass is completely worthless......

Each trading city has found that the goods in front of them are better and cheaper than their own, and there are many products that they cannot produce.There are only two paths in front of them.The first way is not to buy, and then others will buy it at a low price, and then compete with a low price and higher quality and their original trade, and then they will start to lose money, and the goods that advance will be smashed in their own hands.The second way is to pool the money to buy all the goods, and then sell them at a high price, so as not to let these goods flow into the market at a low price, so that the value of the products that you originally operated will be devalued.Most of the merchants chose to spend their money to buy Aiqi's goods, and if they didn't have enough money, they would make up with other merchants, and if they didn't have enough money, they would make up with the money lenders on the spot.In advance, Aitch informed the Iron Bank in advance, and reached an agreement with the Iron Bank, and the Iron Bank only recognized the money, and saw that it was profitable, so of course it was willing to participate.Aiqi also didn't want the Iron Bank to make all the money, so he also set up a bank of his own and also undertook the loan business.The reason why Aitch gave the profits to the Iron Bank was because the wealth accumulated by the Iron Bank over the past few hundred years was very high, and Aitch did not plan to stand on the opposite side of the Iron Bank in the short term.If the Iron Bank were to invest its money in Edge's enemies, it would still cause a lot of trouble.That's why Archie gave the Iron Bank a share of the profits and maintained a good relationship with Braavos.But what will happen when Edge's power becomes stronger, not certainly.
