The evil forces roaming the heavens

Chapter 661: There is no loyalty in King's Landing, and the Iron Bank does not believe in bandits!

As summer arrives, the sea breeze blows across Braavos.

In this place known as the Free Trade Federation, the Golden Dragon represents everything.
On an extremely large galleon, the deck was lowered and soldiers in full gear came down from it.
Holding the Black Dragon Flag in his hand, the Krieg soldier looked at the civilians in front of him with a cold gaze.
Due to the construction of the archipelago, seafood is a daily food in Braavos. However, this is too stimulating for Zhang Cheng, just like when he entered King's Landing!
Covering his nose with a handkerchief, Zhang Cheng slowly came down from behind.

Looking at Zhang Cheng, the Iron Bank staff immediately stepped forward and said, "Welcome, Count Zähringen!"

"Nice to see you too, Dean!"

Extending his hand, Zhang Cheng spoke with a smile on his face.
"Let's go, many people are waiting for you!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng with a smile on his face, Dean, the person in charge of the Iron Bank, quickly spoke,
"No problem at all!"

Following him into the carriage, Zhang Cheng looked out the window at Braavos and said, "This place is so beautiful!"

"Of course, Braavos is a free land!"

Dean explained with a smile, his eyes full of pride.

But after hearing his words, Zhang Cheng covered his handkerchief with his hands, and raised a barely perceptible sarcasm at the corner of his mouth.

Because if this is really a land of freedom, then why are there so many poor people?

You know, although Braavos is known as the freest place in the Free Trade Federation, the oppression it suffers is not necessarily less than that in other places!
For example, in terms of taxation, as long as you are a citizen of Braavos, you are obliged to pay taxes.
How else do you think Braavos created its vast fleet?

Arriving at the Iron Bank known as the "Continental Bank", Zhang Cheng could not help but be amazed.
Because this is indeed the center where golden dragons gather. Look at the gate and the defense. It is even more magnificent than the Federal Reserve!

Thinking of this, Zhang Cheng's eyes couldn't help but sparkle, because if he could make a fortune here, wouldn't he make a fortune?

But just as Zhang Cheng's mind was turning, Dean next to him said, "Let's go, Count Zellingen!"

"Ok!"

With a smile on his face, Zhang Cheng hid his thoughts and waited for the night to fall.

After all, robbing the Iron Bank in broad daylight seemed a bit excessive;

Iron Bank: Can you do it at night?

Zhang Cheng: What else?

Entering the magnificent Iron Vault, Zhang Cheng discovered that there seemed to be more guards inside than outside.
No wonder there has never been any news of the Iron Bank being looted over the years. It turns out there was an ambush.
After robbing the Iron Bank, you still have to face one more problem, which is how to escape from the Braavos fleet.

As the strongest force at sea, Braavos maintains its armed forces to ensure the safety of the Iron Bank.

So, if you rob the Iron Bank, it would be like slapping the Braavos fleet and the face of the Sea King!
That’s right, the king of Braavos is the Sea King!

But he is not the "Sea King" as we understand it, but a symbol of sea explorer!
Entering a luxurious box, Zhang Cheng sat on a chair with a smile on his face and said, "Regarding this loan, I think the Iron Bank has already made arrangements, right?"

"We have discussed your plan to borrow 200,000 gold royals from the Iron Bank carefully and feel that it is a bit risky!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Dean smiled.

"Risk? Why? Is the honor of my Zellingen family worth more than two hundred thousand?"

Looking at Dean with a serious face, Zhang Cheng's idea of ​​plundering the Iron Bank became more determined! He had come to borrow money shamelessly, but the other party was not going to give it. What else could he do except change his vest and become an outlaw?
"We thought that you could use the resources on Skaggs Island in exchange, right?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng with a smile on his face, Dean explained,

"Braavos wants Skaggs?"

Asking Dean, Zhang Cheng raised the corner of his mouth, his eyes gradually flickered and he asked: "Aren't you afraid of the Stark family in the North?"

"No, no, Lord Zähringen, you invited us so Braavos could enter Skaggs, didn't you?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in front of him, Dean spoke again.
After hearing what Dean said, Zhang Cheng laughed and said, "You mean, you have to enter my island in my name before you are willing to lend me money?"

“Come to think of it, it seems to be true!”

Looking at Zhang Cheng with a smile on his face, Dean couldn't help but say again: "If you are willing, we can increase the loan to 500,000 gold royals!"

"Then what is your purpose in wanting Skaggs? Do you want to help me develop that island full of barbarians?"

Looking at Dean in front of him, Zhang Cheng started to joke.
You know, even if he fought hard on Skaggs Island, there were still many tribes of barbarians, and he only occupied less than half of the territory.

There will be many more tough battles ahead? This is why Zhang Cheng needs the Unsullied, because they are the epitome of cannon fodder!

"The trading point at sea is very important to Braavos, but because Skaggs is too close to Westeros, we cannot send troops to attack, otherwise it will easily attract the attention of the Stark family."

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Dean explained with a smile on his face.
"So you thought of using me?"

Looking at Dean with interest, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

"This is not exploitation, this is negotiation, this is cooperation. I believe Count Zähringen also knows the credibility of our Iron Bank. For this, we can give you the lowest interest rate and favorable conditions in all aspects!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Dean laughed quickly.
"Okay, no problem, I agree!"

After hearing what Dean said, Zhang Cheng thought for a moment and immediately agreed.

After all, 500,000 gold dragons in exchange for the other party's entry into Skaggs Island is simply too much of a profit.
And don't think that once the other party arrives on the island, they can easily establish a trading base.

You know, there are not only barbarians but also goblins on Skaggs!

No one knows what a group of irrational beasts will do!

With his eyes twinkling, the corners of Zhang Cheng's mouth gradually rose, because he had decided that he would not only borrow money, but also levy taxes from Braavos!

After discussing various conditions, Zhang Cheng agreed enthusiastically.
After all, Zhang Laogeda had borrowed money from his opponents in the past, but he borrowed the money to buy cannons. But guess what he was going to do with the cannons?

Zhang Laogeda: I bought a cannon, do I need to pay back the money?
Zhang Cheng: I don’t recognize signed documents, let alone those that are not signed!
Iron Bank: It’s over, this is even more ruthless than the last time I borrowed money!
Coming out of the iron vault with guards every 10 steps, Zhang Cheng looked at the towering buildings behind him, his eyes gleaming.

Because once night falls, this city will usher in the saddest day.
Watching the carriage deliver the box full of golden dragons onto the ship, Zhang Cheng was escorted to an exotic manor.

As he drank, Zhang Cheng looked at the powerful people in the city with a smile in his eyes.
Because this simply provides him with a perfect alibi!

After all, who would dare to believe that Zhang Cheng, who played music and danced with them at night, would break into the iron vault late at night?
Not to mention that they didn't believe it, even Zhang Cheng couldn't believe that he would actually be jealous of someone's wealth!
Zhang Cheng: Being a count is not as good as being a gangster!
