Game of Thrones: The Strongest Dragon Mother

Chapter 416 Unselfish Cleon

When Dany first came to Astapor, the streets by the docks were empty.

Except for their group, they didn't even meet a single foreign trader, and even local residents rarely wandered on the red brick streets.

Two years later, the old city walls with cracked roads and roads were repaired, and the weathered red brick floors on the street were taken out and replaced with new bricks.

Urban buildings have also been optimized, and dilapidated and dilapidated buildings have all been demolished and rebuilt.

Houses with red bricks and black tiles rose from the ground, and three or four-storey buildings lined up along the street.

Residents also plant apples, persimmons, figs, loquats and other fruit trees on the street in front of their houses.

Clean, tidy, with a natural harmonious beauty.

If there were not dozens of pyramids mixed in, it would almost make people mistakenly think that they came to a small county in the 90s.

Tyrion, Clinton and others walked all the way and were amazed all the way.

"King's Landing is also near the river and the sea, but compared with Astapor, it is a big cesspool." The little devil's tone was complicated.

"The air in the city is very fresh, the sanitation is very good, and the sewer system is almost as good as the black wall of Volantis." Pogba, the rib man, commented.

"Ah, Count Cleon, it's Count Cleon!"

"Unselfish Kryon!"

The Great Pyramid is behind the city gate. Leave the pier and walk east half a kilometer along the street under the city wall to enter the north gate of Astapor.

After passing the north gate, there is the People's Square - the punishment square where the Unsullied were trained and the corpses of disobedient slaves were hung - behind the square is the Chaoyang Palace, the Great Pyramid of the Dragon Queen.

At this time, the southern end of the square near Chaoyang Palace was crowded with people.

They gathered tightly together, shouting and cheering to the Earl of Broken Shackles in the encirclement.

Well, Kleon came to Chaoyang Palace one step ahead of them. As soon as he got off the carriage, he was surrounded by countless citizens who came after hearing the news.

"There is Cleon in Meereen, who distinguishes right from wrong and who is loyal and evil, the harpies come to persecute, the dragon and the Father are by his side"

"There is a blue sky above my head, and I have a belief in my heart, not cruel and bloodthirsty, but to defend freedom."

In addition to the citizens surrounding the Earl of Shattered Shackles, there are seven or eight bards standing by, playing and singing, using poetry to make Cleon brave the dangers and crack Meereen's "Anti-Dragon Mother, Anti-Liberty, Anti-People's Eagle" "The Banshee Group Case", and the story of the hero being wronged and imprisoned.

In the mouths of singers, poets and even ordinary people, Kleon is upright and outspoken, he regards death as home, and fights against the entire "anti-singing group" with his own strength.

He is a great man, a fighter who protects the freedom of Slave Bay, and the No. 1 minister of Slave Bay.

It's Master Qingtian!

"Kryon has such a high prestige"

The little devil was dumbfounded, and as his facial muscles twitched, his black nostrils expanded, causing the nearby citizens of Astapor to back away a few steps in fright.

Tyrion has seen similar expressions on other people's faces too much. After the battle of the Blackwater River lost his nose, everyone looked at him with either contempt, disgust, or fear.

From the initial bitterness and depression, he gradually became numb, and finally got used to it.

At this moment, Tyrion seemed unaware of everyone's pointing and pointing. He walked up to Tang De, the leader, and said strangely:

"The harpy group was formed by the Ghis people who were unwilling to submit to the Dragon Queen's rule?"

"Of course, who would rebel except the original slave owner?" Tang De affirmed.

"But why did Queen Dragon arrest Earl Cleon who suppressed the rebellion?" Clinton asked the little devil's doubts.

"It's not the Queen's arrest, it's the normal operating mechanism of the Grand Court."

Knowing that several foreigners could not understand, Tang De quickly explained the law of the Dragon Queen's separation of justice (big court) and administration (guard and gendarmerie).

Finally, he concluded: "The power to judge lies in the court, and the power to arrest and search lies with the guard. If the criminal has the status of a nobleman, a large court must be formed.

Only the Minister of State Affairs can lead the gendarmerie to search for evidence and arrest criminals.

In order to ensure the impartiality of justice, the queen can only play one role in the trial process. "

"The "Law Code" was really formulated by the Dragon Queen herself?"

The little devil was fascinated by it. The judicial system in the "Code" was so standardized, which made him feel refreshed.

Tang De was very dissatisfied with the little devil's suspicion, and said bluntly: "You are just a burlesque actor, what kind of law do you know?

Any scholar who has a little understanding of the laws of various countries should understand that our Code is unique in the world. "

"Although I haven't seen the complete "Code of Laws" yet, I don't doubt its advanced nature."

The little devil first gave a compliment, and then asked his own question: "The Dragon Queen is only 16 years old, and she was even younger when the "Code of Laws" was formulated. She is a genius, without rich experience, and does not understand the customs of various ethnic groups. How can she create such a thing? A perfect code?"

"The queen hatched three dragons at the age of 14, led the tribe across the red wasteland at the age of 14, liberated Astapor at the age of 14, and determined to liberate the entire Slave Bay at the age of 14, completely crush slavery, and change the whole world. This one How can ordinary people do such a thing?" Tang De rolled his eyes and said angrily.

"Uh..." The little devil thought for a while, but was speechless.

"Oh, the Dragon Queen is so wise and powerful, how can men in the world deserve her!" Tyrion said with a meaningful sideways glance at the silver-haired young man beside him.

Little Griffin looked gloomy, his eyes drooping and he said nothing.

Seeing this, Clinton felt very helpless. He had hoped that the Dragon Queen would have one-tenth of Rhaegar's compassion and wisdom.

Qi Dafei!

Sighing, he changed the subject and said, "Since the judicial system is so perfect, and Cleon is ruthless and sticks to the Code, why is he still arrested?"

"Dangdang"

A group of Unsullied rushed out of the Great Pyramid, beating the gongs to disperse the crowd.

In the end, they lined up in two rows and isolated a passage, allowing Cleon and the guards who escorted him to enter the hall.

The crowd of onlookers dispersed, and the figure of the Earl of Broken Shackles disappeared at the entrance of the palace gate, and Tang De led the fire mage and Clinton to walk forward again.

As he walked, he shook his head and sighed, "It's also my fault that Earl Cleon is too rigid and selfless. In the case of the Harpy, he hit a wide range of people, and a small number of innocent people were implicated."

"How many people have been wronged? They can bring down a respected earl." The little devil was surprised.

"Not sure, but a total of 6 people have been imprisoned, and [-] people have been sentenced to death. It's a bit—"

"Seven Hells!" Tyrion howled, his ugly face flushed by the sun turned pale in an instant, "How many Giths are there in Meereen?

I remember that the ratio of slaves to freemen in Volantis is four to one. I think the ratio is even higher in Slaves Bay. How many people are there in Slaves Bay?

Did Cleon capture all the Gisians?

This method is simple, and it guarantees that even a bad guy can't escape, but "

"How can there be all? Meereen has nearly 20 Ghisians!" Tang De said.

Tyrion looked up at Tang De, and asked strangely: "Do you have any misunderstanding about being unselfish?"

"Earl Cleon completely abides by the "Code of Law" and has no personal affair." Tang De said seriously.

"How come there are so many Gith people in Meereen?" Clinton asked in amazement.

Tang De explained: "After the liberation of Slave Bay, the previous slave business naturally couldn't be done. The queen then optimized and adjusted the economic structure of the three cities.

Astapor developed manufacturing and heavy industry. Kaiyuan, the original capital of bed slaves, was converted into a granary. The Ghis people who trained bed slaves moved to Meereen, and Meereen developed handicrafts and light industries. "

Dany is such a benevolent, kind, and upright queen. Naturally, she can't directly say to the common people: Meereen is the battlefield I chose, and I will let the disobedient Ghisians go to Meereen as cannon fodder.

Of course, she didn't lie completely, optimizing the industrial chain is also one of the purposes.

"What is heavy industry and light industry?" Tyrion asked curiously.

"Well, the Queen said that those sectors which provide means of production are called heavy industry, and those which produce means of consumption are called light industry"

The customs inspector scratched his head and said with a troubled face: "Don't ask me what is meant by 'materials of production' and 'materials of consumption', I don't quite understand either.

In short, mining, smelting, forging metal ingots, burning glass, logging, and building sea ships are all heavy industries.As for light industry, well, everything except agriculture is considered light industry! This is easier to understand. "

Connington and the fire mages were stupefied, but Tyrion looked uplifted and his eyes sparkled.

"But I see that most merchant ships come to Astapor, and few go to Meereen." He asked again.

Tang De frowned and thought for a while, then said uncertainly: "The industrial layout does not seem to be complete. There is no doubt that Meereen was the most prosperous and had the most craftsmen and craftsmen.

But they were all slaves, and after being liberated as new free citizens, they all moved to Astapor.

Now, heavy industry and light industry are in Astapor.Meereen mainly develops cash crops, such as olives, soybeans, and peanuts.

Especially olives, the olive oil from Slave Bay sells well all over the world.

There were also large olive groves in Kaiyuan, but unfortunately they were all burned to the ground by slave owners. Now they can only grow wheat, corn, turnip and other food crops. "

"Wonderful, wonderful!" cried Tyrion, clapping his hands.

"What's so wonderful?" Little Griffin looked at him like he was crazy.

"Uh," the little devil was stunned, his ugly face tangled, "I don't know what's so good about it, but this kind of industrial layout has a strange beauty and is very harmonious."

"Aesthetic sense?" Little Griffin completely regarded him as crazy.

"Optimizing the industrial chain can double the production efficiency." A slightly immature female voice suddenly came out from the side.

Tyrion turned his head and saw a little black girl with a round face and a flat nose, looking at him with big round golden eyes.

"Ah, it's the Lord of the City." Tang De respectfully walked across to the little black girl, bowed and saluted, and said, "Your Majesty, Inspector of the Customs Commodity Inspection Division, Tang De Hope, has seen Lord Missandei."

"City Lord?" Everyone was shocked.

"The city owner is a female dwarf?"

Tyrion looked at Missandei with inexplicable kindness.

It seems that the Dragon Queen is able to do whatever she can, regardless of her background.

That's right, even the crooked fire mage with the shape of a monster has a high salary of "millions of gold coins", and it is very reasonable for a dwarf to be a city lord.

If the Dragon Queen doesn't care about her status as a Lannister, she doesn't know whether she can become the Hand of the King with her own wisdom.

In just a split second, countless thoughts flashed through Tyrion's mind.

But the next moment, Tang De slapped him on the back of the head and reprimanded him: "You think you must be a dwarf if you are as tall as you? Missandei is only 11 years old!"
