Chapter 171: Warships for Sale



After ten minutes of chaos, the sturdy bronze gate of Qarth finally slowly opened.

Daxos, his body stained with blood, and eleven wealthy businessmen in gorgeous clothes stood behind the door, respectfully welcoming Daenerys and the army of Unsullied behind her into the city.

After entering the city gate, Daenerys and Li Yun got out of the carriage.

Ten iron puppets carrying the sedan stopped it at the gate, then picked up the heavy weapons hanging on the sedan, turned and walked towards the Unsullied, cooperating with them to seize control of the city gate.

Following the arcade streets that crisscrossed the city, Daenerys officially entered this city famous for its wealth.

Unlike the heavy and solid bronze outer city gate, the inner city gate is covered with exquisite and intricate patterns and reliefs, and is inlaid with many gold eyes. The surrounding architectural styles are also magnificent, full of grandeur and magnificence.

Walking on the spacious arcade streets, you can see many white and green marble columns on both sides, on which stand many human-shaped statues as high as five or six meters. According to Dassus, these statues are all ancient heroes who made great contributions when the city was founded.

As Daenerys listened to Daxos's tale of these ancient heroes, she walked through a bronze archway with a relief of two intertwined snakes on top, their scales made of exquisite emerald, obsidian, and lapis lazuli.

Passing through this bronze arch, you enter the largest square in Midtown.

The city's defense guards had been disarmed and were kneeling in the square to be inspected by Daenerys the Conqueror.

Daenerys stood on the high platform prepared for her by the Thirteen Lords, looked around at the city guards kneeling in the square in front of her, then turned to look at Daxos and his eleven companions beside her.

"Thirteen Great Lords of Qarth, why are there only twelve of them?"

"This..." Daxos hesitated for a moment and explained in a low voice, "Harken is in that watchtower, Your Majesty."

Daenerys twitched her lips when she heard this, and waved her hand, saying, "A proper burial."

Daxos responded respectfully.

Daenerys continued to ask: "I heard that Qarth is controlled by the royal family, the thirteen great men, the Tourmaline Brotherhood and the Ancient Guild of Spice. Then why are there only thirteen... twelve great men standing in front of me now?"

Dasos explained respectfully, "Almost all the adult rulers of the royal family are in that watchtower. Only the elderly Recha did not go there in person due to health reasons. He only sent his only son to the tower to watch the battle. Before offering the city gate to you, we found Recha and tried to persuade him to serve you, but unfortunately, Recha had fallen into madness because of the death of his only son, so..."

"So you killed him."

"Yes……"

Dasos responded quickly, then lowered his head nervously.

Fortunately, Daenerys didn't care and continued to ask, "What about the Tourmaline Brotherhood and the Ancient Guild of Spice?"

Daxos explained, "Two of the three most powerful merchants in the Tourmaline Brotherhood are in that watchtower. The remaining one has a good relationship with the usurper of Westeros. He was worried that you would be angry with him because of this, so when you broke into the city, he had already boarded a merchant ship with his men and treasures, intending to flee Qarth."

"Four of the seven rulers of the Ancient Spice Guild climbed up the watchtower. After hearing the news, their successors angrily decided to fight you to the end. However, the remaining three rulers did not think so. They admired your power very much, so when they were discussing countermeasures, they stabbed the four successors in the back. The Ancient Spice Guild fell into civil strife."

"Right now, people from both sides are still fighting at the dock outside the trade market."

“…”

Daenerys was completely upset when she heard this.

She also didn't expect that just one shot from her would plunge the huge country of Qarth into an unprecedented chaotic civil war.

But this is understandable. After all, in this era when the maximum range was only a hundred steps, who would have thought that Daenerys would have an Italian cannon with a range of more than thirty miles?

If these people in power did not believe that the watchtower was absolutely safe, they would not have taken the risk to climb up the watchtower to observe the battle situation outside the city.

Well, death is the best way to reshuffle a city with rigid class structures.

This would save her from wasting time arguing with these stubborn and capitulated nobles...

Thinking of this, Daenerys immediately gave an order, ordering a thousand Unsullied and five Iron Golems to go to the dock to help the three leaders of the Ancient Guild of Spice to quell the civil unrest.

After the order was given, Daenerys turned her head again and looked at Daxos beside her.

"Are the Tourmaline Brotherhood and the Ancient Guild of Spice strong at sea?"

"Very strong!" Daxos said solemnly, "The Tourmaline Brotherhood owns more than 800 ships, including more than 600 merchant ships and more than 200 warships. The Ancient Spice Guild is even more powerful. They own about 1,200 to 1,300 ships, most of which are merchant ships, and the rest are warships."

“It sounds really strong.”

Daenerys curled her lips, turned her head and looked at Li Yun and asked, "Will Jade sell the aircraft carrier?"

Li Yun's mouth twitched, and after thinking for a while, he said, "The aircraft carrier is definitely not for sale, but the destroyer of World War II should be no problem. After all, Zuo Yu is not an ordinary billionaire now. He has replaced the Anthony family and successfully promoted to the real power holder of the high table as the Zuo family."

"He even protected John Wick, who was wanted by the High Table. He is now serving as the chief instructor at the Kunlun training camp in San Francisco, enjoying a high-paid retirement life. Oh, by the way, Zuo Yu mentioned to me last time that if you feel that you are short of talent, you can send a few smart officers to the John Wick world for training."

"Trained by whom, John Wick?" Daenerys rolled her eyes. "I need an officer, not a killer!"

Li Yun shook his head and said, "Killer training is only part of the business of Kunlun Training Camp. Zuo Yu's original words were that whether you want an officer or a pilot who can drive a tank or a plane, he can provide the corresponding service."

"Why didn't you tell me earlier? I'll contact him right away!"

Daenerys' eyes lit up, and she immediately took out the jade token made from the void and edited a message with her spiritual consciousness.

Daxos and the other eleven giants looked at each other, wondering what Daenerys and Li Yun had talked about.

But looking at the look on Daenerys' face, it should be a gratifying thing.

After about three minutes, the jade token began to vibrate.

Daenerys' eyes lit up and she quickly read the information with her spiritual sense.

"You want a warship, right? No problem. I have a Russian general friend who used to be a rear admiral in the Ukrainian navy. At that time, the Ukrainian government could not pay the navy's salary, so they blew up the warship in anger and sold the parts for money. After getting the money, the members immediately disbanded, and he, as the captain, fled to Russia with his subordinates."

"According to him, many disintegrated countries that were once part of the Red Empire are now facing the same problem. If he and I come forward together, we will most likely be able to contract all those warships that are almost retired..."

"As for the Kunlun Training Camp, we undertake the training of assassins, special forces, officers, tank drivers, warship pilots, helicopter pilots, fighter pilots and all other modern military services. In addition, there is a limited-time discount for cross-border services, buy one get one free!"

"If you need this service, I can give you the same Black Gold VIP membership as Zhao Lihe, and only charge you 40% off for each service. How about it? Are you interested?"

Daenerys was indeed very tempted, and immediately edited a message: "Deal, I want all the warships you can buy, and by the way, 20 more officer training places, as well as 10 tank drivers and 10 bomber drivers... Hmm, it feels a little bit insufficient, forget it, let's talk about the exact amount when we meet!"

After sending the message, Daenerys put down the jade token, turned to look at Li Yun and said, "I want to go to the Temple of the Undying to meet those wizards and the so-called immortals. Do you want to come with me?"

Li Yun happily said: "Of course."

Daenerys smiled, turned to look at Feng En who had been silent, and said, "I will leave the matter of dealing with the city guards and quelling the civil strife in the Ancient Guild of Spice to you. You won't let me down, right?"

“…”

Feng En had never expected that Daenerys would entrust this matter to him. He was stunned for a few seconds, then quickly knelt down in front of Daenerys, flattered, and spoke in a fanatical tone.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"Your will is the direction of my sword!"
