#61 - Chapter 24: Three Hundred Thousand, You Don’t Lose
Casterly Rock's seaside portion includes a separate harbor. The harbor is fully equipped with docks, shipyards, and shipbuilding facilities. This harbor is essentially a large cave carved out by the sea against the western wall of the giant rock. Its nine natural cave entrances have sufficient draft and width to allow longships and even flat-bottomed merchant ships to enter and exit freely, unloading cargo.
Along the way, Liu Yuan chatted a lot with Tyrion, and he learned that Tyrion is already 16 years old this year. Speaking of which, this is also a poor child who lost his mother as soon as he was born and is not liked by his own father. Even his sister feels that he killed their mother and has always rejected him. Moreover, he is a deformed dwarf, which makes even more people look down on him. But the only ones who are really good to him are his own brother, Jaime, and his uncle Kevan. He also has very few friends. Tyrion smiled bitterly: "Everyone treats me like a monster. I can see how they see me in their hearts. Dwarf ~ freak ~ hahaha ~ my title of 'Imp' is what they spread."
Tyrion learned that Liu Yuan was two years younger than him, and he found Liu Yuan's 1.8-meter height incredible. He showed a look of envy in his eyes. Liu Yuan also told him about his life in the Citadel, even without avoiding his own origins. He also comforted him: "Tyrion, so what if you are a dwarf? I am still a bastard! I have lived under the same castle for six years, and I have not said a word to my own father. My mother also died shortly after I was born, and a maid raised me to the age of six, but she also died in the end. During the Tourney at Harrenhal that year, we encountered remnants of the Kingswood Brotherhood on the way to King's Landing. I took action to save my brother, so I was accepted by the family, and since then I have been studying at the Citadel."
The two chatted very agreeable, Tyrion admired Liu Yuan's extensive knowledge. As a modern person, Liu Yuan did not have discriminatory psychology towards dwarves and disabled people, absolutely treating everyone equally. He didn't even have any sympathy for him, which made Tyrion very touched, and he almost become sworn brothers with Liu Yuan in the carriage.
The carriage passed through the winding mountain road and finally arrived at the fortress on the top of the mountain. This is the center of Casterly Rock. Tyrion pointed to a tall tower in the distance and said: "That is the Hall of Heroes, which is famous throughout Westeros. There are even legends on the Essos continent across the Narrow Sea. When I was a child, Jaime and I liked to go there the most. I will take you there when I have the opportunity. Father is still waiting for us!" After speaking, he led the way and entered the main hall of the castle.
Liu Yuan waved his hand, and two soldiers lifted a heavy box and followed behind. These two people did not carry any weapons, and the guards at the door simply checked it and let them pass.
The guards pushed open the hall door, and the world-renowned Golden Gallery came into view. Everything here, including the walls and floors, all shone with a golden light under the reflection of the lights, all displaying the Lannister family's abundant wealth.
But with Liu Yuan's eyes, he could see that those furnishings were gilded, and the floors, walls, and dome were all made of a kind of slag powder. So pretending~
After passing through several checks, they finally arrived at a spacious hall. What came into view were tall bookshelves, filled with various books. This should be the lord's office. At this time, there were more than a dozen blonde Lannister family members standing in the hall, including Kevan whom he had seen in the morning. The one sitting on the lord's seat was Duke Tywin Lannister, and this was the first time Liu Yuan had seen this legendary figure. He was not at all like the one in the TV series, but the aura of being in a high position for a long time was impressive.
Tywin waved his hand, and all the previously chaotic people stood at attention on both sides. It could be seen that he had authority in the family, and even Tyrion obediently ran to the side and stood still. Tywin said: "Oh ~ welcome to your arrival, Ser Galon. I heard my brother say that you brought a treasure. Can you show it to me?
Liu Yuan bowed slightly and said: "Your Grace Tywin, I am Galon Settigar, the second son of the Lord of Claw Isle. To correct one point, I have not received any knighthood and cannot be called Ser. As for the treasure I brought, please wait a moment, Your Grace Tywin and everyone."
Liu Yuan then took off the Lion's Roar sword from his waist and handed it to Tyrion. Tyrion held the sword in both hands and ran to his father, respectfully handing it over. Tywin got up and took the sword, carefully examining it. With Liu Yuan's eyesight, he could naturally see the corners of his mouth turning up, and he seemed very satisfied.
Tywin drew the longsword, and as the sword slowly came out of its sheath, it revealed the golden luster of the blade, as well as the water-like pattern representing Valyrian steel. It could be seen that Duke Tywin was very happy. It is said that he was also a powerful warrior when he was young. Since he took control of the Seven Kingdoms, he only hoped to have a matching sword for his status. He found many fallen families and wanted to buy Valyrian steel swords, but he was rejected. Seeing the others' fiery gaze, he passed the sword down. His brother Kevan was the first to grab it, gently waving it.
Duke Tywin turned to Liu Yuan and said: "Then Mr. Galon, I like this sword very much, let's talk about the price! Or what do you want to get from me?" His expression was calm, and he was sure that the Settigar kid would definitely sell the sword. Moreover, the Lannister family's wealth gave him enough confidence.
Liu Yuan slowly stretched out three fingers: "Three hundred thousand gold dragons."
"噗~呲(噗~呲: spluttering sound)!" Tyrion, who was secretly drinking alcohol in his chair, was so surprised that he spat out the wine. Duke Tywin's face was also not very good-looking. He thought that Liu Yuan would ask for a high price, and he also made a mental price range of one hundred thousand gold dragons. But he didn't expect Liu Yuan's appetite to be so big, three times as much. Tywin said with a gloomy face: "Are you kidding me? The value of a Valyrian steel weapon is at most sixty thousand gold dragons, even if it is a masterpiece, it is not worth three hundred thousand gold dragons."
Liu Yuan was not afraid at all. He stepped forward and took the Lion's Roar sword from Tygett's hand. He pressed the sapphire on the hilt with his thumb and said to everyone: "I once read a book written by Archmaester Mellyon about the noble family genealogy in the Citadel, called 'The Lineages and Histories of the Great Houses of the Seven Kingdoms', which mentioned that the Lannister family's motto is 'Hear Me Roar!'" As he spoke, he waved the sword in the air, and with his movements, the sword actually made a whistling sound, like the low roar of a beast. Then he made a few more movements, and the sword made other sounds. These whistling sounds combined were very similar to the roar of a lion.
The eyes of several Lannister members lit up. This Lion's Roar sword was simply custom-made for their family. Everyone looked at Duke Tywin with eager eyes, and everyone understood the meaning in them: Boss, buy it! Be sure to buy it!
Duke Tywin cursed inwardly: A bunch of useless teammates, I can't lead you at all. In fact, he was also very tempted, but his brothers were too impatient, wasn't this handing the knife to someone else and waiting to be slaughtered? He squeezed out a sentence: "That's not enough!"
Liu Yuan knew that Duke Tywin had wavered, and all he needed was to add more fire. He used the tip of his sword to lift the red cloth on the gift, revealing the golden box below with exquisite lion patterns engraved.
