I'm Going Both Ways On Game Of Thrones
Chapter 37 Small Businessmen's Expectations
Having figured this out, Sansa nodded reluctantly, "Yes, but you have to be careful with it! That's all I have."
Arya nodded quickly, reached out and quickly snatched the wooden box from Sansa's hand, and then ordered the maid outside the door to prepare a bucket of hot water, and she wanted to take a shower again.
Sansa stayed in Arya's room and waited until Arya finished taking a shower, ignoring Arya happily telling about the magic of soap, and hurried back to her room after getting her soap back.
White Harbor is the largest harbor city in the north, and the Mandalay family is the master here.
As the largest port in the North, the White Harbor is home to many merchant ships from Westeros and the Free Cities across the Narrow Sea.
The prosperity of business and trade has led to numerous taverns and inns in Baigang, and the sailors on the ship who are constantly coming and going have also prospered the business of the women's branch in Baigang.
Ragged fishermen, pushing carts loaded with fish caught in the sea in the morning, hawked along the street on the pier.
Wagons loaded with goods, one after another, passed between the port and the wharf.
The upstairs of the store facing the street suddenly opened from time to time, and a woman poured a basin of water down, and the unlucky person who happened to pass by was often drenched, causing the women upstairs to laugh loudly.
Bare-footed children, holding toys such as wood and wire picked up from the rubbish heap, chased and scrambled to and fro in the alley, and from time to time there were shouts of scolding from men.
The entire Baigang City was full of vitality for a while. Compared with the territories of other nobles in the north, Baigang was obviously richer.
In particular, White Harbor City, which is the main commercial connection between the northern border and other territories, has brought a lot of wealth to the Mandalay family.
Todd, a small businessman from White Harbor City, took out his only silver deer in the winter market town outside Winterfell five days ago, and bought 10 gel pens and 50 gel pens from Jason Liu. Refills, and 50 blank sheets of paper, desperate to make a fortune.
Yes, according to Todd's more than ten years of experience in the business, this magical gel pen and refill with many advantages, as well as white and flexible white paper, quills, inks and The parchment was too strong.
This kind of thing is simply born for the nobles.
At that time, he saw these things, and saw the young noble from the far east demonstrate with his own eyes, Todd couldn't help shouting in the bottom of his heart, buy, you must buy as many as possible.
Therefore, he not only emptied his purse, but also sold the high-quality wheat from the east that he had worked so hard to transport from Baigang to Bidong Market Town to those townspeople at a lower price. The Silver Deer also bought this magical paper and pen.
After spending all the silver deer on his body, and with only a few dozen copper stars left, Todd drove the carriage back to Baigang with a fiery heart.
Hundreds of kilometers away, Todd hurriedly spent less than five days, and finally returned to Baigang City.
"Todd? Why did you come back so soon?" Wife Doreen opened the door and saw her husband, whose face was pale, and helped drive the carriage into the house worriedly.
Todd's face was pale and bloodshot in his eyes, but he was still in high spirits. "Hurry up and get me something to eat and drink. I'm almost exhausted from the way back from Winterfell."
Wife Doreen brought the evening's toast, and 10-year-old eldest daughter Eudora carried a kettle and poured Todd a full glass of water.
Gumbling--
Ha, Todd poured the water in the cup directly, then let out a comfortable moan #yin, glanced at his eldest daughter, Todd waved his hand, "Yudora, go and boil me some hot water, I'll take a good shower later, and I'll go out later!"
"Oh, I'll go right now, father!" Eudora nodded obediently, and hurriedly entered the kitchen to prepare hot water, which she had done for her mother many times.
He picked up the toasted bread that was still steaming on the table. Because of his hard work, their family life was not bad. At least the bread was half wheat, not the kind of black bread that was mixed with an unknown amount of sawdust and was as hard as bricks. .
Chewing on the bread, Todd looked around the room, but didn't see his youngest son, and asked his wife Doreen, "Where's that kid Claret?"
Doreen was in the small yard, leading the horses back to the stables, preparing hay and water for the horses.
Hearing her husband's question, Doreen wiped the sweat from her forehead and replied, "Clayt ran out to play and hasn't come back yet. But he should press fast, it's almost time for dinner, he'll come back when he's hungry. ."
Todd nodded, not surprisingly, children from poor families are like this. When they were young, a large group ran around and played crazy, just like when he was a child.
Ignoring his younger son, Todd devoured the whole piece of long bread and drank two more glasses of water, feeling that his stomach finally felt better.
When Doreen finished feeding the horses, she saw that her husband only ate bread, and she couldn't help but say, "Why did you eat all the bread? There's still carrot soup in the pot, and I'm about to serve it."
"Forget it, I'm full, and I have something to go out later. Please put the hot water for me, and I'll go out after taking a shower!"
Todd waved his hand, then walked into the room, opened the musty-smelling closet, found his best set of clothes, and prepared to change into it after taking a shower.
Doreen wondered why her husband was in such a hurry, but she still carried Eudora's hot water with a wooden bucket and poured it into the tub in the room, and adjusted the temperature with cold water.
Todd took off his clothes and scrubbed his body in the bathtub. The person he was waiting to see was very important to him, but he couldn't let the smell on his body offend him.
After taking a shower and putting on his best clothes, Todd greeted his wife, took two gel pens, two refills and a piece of white paper, and walked out of the house.
Not long after walking out of the door, I saw a thin figure running quickly from a distance.
Todd reached out and grabbed the other's collar, feeling the struggle of his men, Todd couldn't help but scolded, "Clayt, you bastard, come back so late, don't you want to eat dinner!"
5-year-old Clayt, who is thin and small, but has very smart eyes, stopped struggling when he heard his father's familiar voice, hugged Todd's thigh with open arms, and shouted happily, "Father, you It's great to be back!"
"You bastard,,," Todd's originally tense face suddenly melted, he touched his son's little head, slapped lightly, and scolded with a smile, "Go home for dinner, I'm going out for a while. Come back, I'll take care of you later!"*
