Game of Thrones: Holy Flame King

  Chapter 63 Visit

  Stars fall into the city.

  In a market on the east side of the pier, Samwell finished shopping around and walked into a wooden house.

  Inside the house, Natalie was standing by the window, motionless.

   Opposite her, a young man covered in various dyes was painting on a piece of canvas.

"are you done?"

   "It's almost there, it's almost there! Please wait a little longer."

  Samwell walked behind the young painter and carefully looked at his work.

  Hmm...not bad.

  Although there is no charm at all, but at least it is similar.

  An artist randomly found in the market can paint like this, and the requirements should not be too high.

   Waiting for the artist to finish finishing, Samwell threw a silver stag over.

   "Are you ready? Let me see, let me see!" Natalie rubbed her stiff waist and trotted over to look at the painting.

  The little girl is not as picky as Samwell. She probably saw an oil painting for the first time, and it was a portrait of herself, so she couldn't take her eyes away immediately.

   But before she could see enough, Samwell reached out and took the painting away.

   "Oh~~ I haven't finished watching it yet!"

   "If you want to see yourself in the mirror, this painting is useful to me."

   "What are you using my painting for?" Natalie seemed to react, her eyes suddenly became a little vigilant.

   "Children don't ask too much about adults' affairs." Samwell responded casually and walked out.

  Natalie snorted softly, and quickly followed.

  Out the door, Samwell reached out to recruit two guards, then turned to Natalie and said:

   "They accompany you around the market, I have something to do, and I will be back soon."

   "Where are you going?" Natalie panicked all of a sudden, "I want to follow you!"

  Samwell pointed to the towering castle not far away, and said:

   "I'm going to visit the Dane family, you wait here."

   "Why didn't you take me there?" Natalie was suddenly aggrieved.

   "I'll take you there next time." Samwell stepped forward, waving his hands without looking back, "Next time."

  …

   "Sir Urik, thank you for your hospitality." Samwell ate the bread and salt, stepped forward and saluted.

   "Welcome to Starfall City, Sir Caesar." Uric Shad said with a half-smile.

   It seems that he doesn't want to hide his dislike for Samwell at all.

  Samwell didn't care about the attitude of the other party. After all, Hewan and Dorne had a thousand-year feud, and the acting castellan of Starfall City was considered polite if he could maintain the superficial etiquette.

  The two of them entered the castle and sat down in the living room.

  The maid served coffee and dessert, and then quietly left.

   "Sir Caesar, what is your business in Starfall City this time?"

  Samwell took a sip of coffee and said with a smile:

   "Actually, I have nothing to do, I just want to meet my neighbors. You must know that I have opened up a new territory in Yingzui Island..."

  Urik interrupted rather rudely: "Then you'd better build the castle as soon as possible. Before that, Yingzui Island can't be regarded as your territory."

   "Soon, soon." Samwell didn't seem to notice the provocation in Urek's words at all, "In about two years, my castle will be built."

   "Two years..." Urik secretly recorded the time, "The speed is not bad, not too slow."

Samwell immediately began to pour out bitter water: "Oh, if those savages are always lazy in their work, they will definitely be faster. Moreover, the land in Yingzui Island is barren and there is no way to grow food. I can only transport it from outside. , it's too expensive..."

  Urik was not in the mood to listen to this person's complaints, so he interrupted: "I heard that a silver mine was discovered in Yingzui Island?"

"Yes. But it is difficult to feed so many people with this silver mine alone." Samwell said with a sad face, "I have no choice but to start making wine and selling it. Ser Uric, do you want to buy a batch of mine?" Have a drink?"

  Urik also heard about this from the captains who went to inquire about the news before, so he asked curiously:

   "What kind of wine do you brew?"

   "It's a wine made from mountain grapes. I call it brandy. I just brought some with me this time. You can try it."

   As he spoke, Samwell asked his attendant Kathu to take out the brandy and pour Urik a glass of wine.

  The rich aroma of wine dissipated, which immediately attracted Urik's attention.

  He picked up the glass and drank it down.

  Dorne people have a strong taste, so they usually like to add some spicy spices to their drinking, but when they drink distilled spirit brandy, they are immediately fascinated.

   "It's really good wine!" Urik couldn't help but praise.

  Samwell took the opportunity to sell and said: "If you think this wine has a future in Dorne, why not cooperate with us. I will be responsible for the supply and you will be responsible for the sales."

  Urik rolled his eyes and asked cautiously:

   "How much do you supply?"

   "Ten silver stags to a gallon. This is my uniform supply price to the Tyrell, Hightower, and Redwyne families."

   "You have asked these three families to help sell it?"

   "Yes. However, in Dorne, you are still my first partner, and maybe you will be the last one."

  Urik rubbed his wine glass, lost in thought.

  He noticed that Samwell had always been talking about cooperating with himself, not with the Dane family.

   This means that all the profits from brandy sales will go into his personal pocket.

  Although as the acting city lord of Starfall City, it is unreasonable to cooperate with a river bender, let alone a guy who is building a territory near the mouth of the Turbulent River.

  However, Urik was still moved.

  As an illegitimate child, no matter how long he has been the deputy city lord, no matter how well he has done during this period, Starfall City is not his after all.

  The profit from selling brandy actually went into his pocket.

   What's more, Urik knew that as the real owner of Starfall City, Earl Edric Dane, was about to come of age, he would not be able to hold the position of acting city lord for long.

  That being the case, why not make a fortune before losing power?

  As for the threat of Yingzui Island, anyway, there are still two years before the castle is completed, so I will leave it to Earl Edric to have a headache.

  Thinking of this, Urik changed his attitude of perfunctory hostility before, and the smile on his face suddenly became sincere:

   "Good! Sir Caesar, I am willing to cooperate with you!"

  Samwell felt relieved, knowing that the crisis in the territory was temporarily lifted.

  He signed a consignment contract with Urik with a smile, discussed the details of the wine supply, and then changed the subject, saying:

"By the way, Sir Uric, when I came here today, I happened to see a portrait at the pier market. The person in the painting has brown hair and purple eyes. He looks like a lady from the Dane family. I wonder if you know?"

   As he spoke, Samwell asked Katu to show Natalie's portrait.

  Urik glanced at the painting, then smiled and said:

   "This painting should be of Miss Ashara Dane when she was young. Where did you find this painting?"

   "Bought from a businessman who came to Yingzui Island." Samwell deliberately put on a look of expectation, "Is that Miss Ashara married now?"

  Urik glanced at Samwell, seemed to see through his mind, shook his head and said:

   "Sorry, Sir Caesar, Miss Ashara unfortunately fell into the sea and died more than ten years ago."

  Sam Well suddenly looked disappointed.

  Urik said with a smile: "Sir Caesar, the last lady of the main branch of the Dane family has also married to Black Harbor City. If you are interested, I can introduce you to a few ladies from the side line."

   "This... there's no need." Samwell laughed and changed the topic to other aspects.

  There is no longer any doubt in my heart about the identity of the mysterious female patriarch of the Youya tribe.
