Chapter 91 The Price of the Unsullied
"Ask that boastful bitch." Kraznys slowly recovered and sneered, "My accountant has checked her fleet. If all the goods were sold, they would be enough to exchange for 1,000 Unsullied. Together with those gold and silver antiques, they could only buy another 3,000 slaves. We have at least 8,000 trained Unsullied in Aposta. How can she buy them all?"
"Your Majesty, there are more than 8,000 Unsullied in Aposta. Your money can only buy half of them." The little translator said.
Dany raised her eyebrows. When the clerk came to estimate the price in the morning, he told her that the goods of the Grolai caravan were worth 150,000 gold dragons, and the dozens of boxes of treasures on Euron's ship were worth more than 500,000 gold dragons. I thought it was enough to buy all of Aposta, but I didn't expect there would be such a big gap.
On average, one Unsullied is worth 165 gold dragons?
"Are you kidding me? In Westeros, hiring a knight only costs a few dozen silver coins. Even a baptized regular knight, a lord, only costs 100 gold dragons for ransom." Jorah shouted angrily.
After the beautiful Brienne of Tarth was captured by the Warriors, Lord Tarth offered 300 gold dragons to redeem his only daughter.
Brienne of Tarth is the only heir to the earldom.
Even Jaime Lannister thought that Lord Tarth was sincere and offered a sky-high ransom.
Jaime is the son of the richest man in the Seven Kingdoms, so a high price in his mind must be a high price.
As an important suspect in the murder of King Joffrey, the bounty for Sansa Stark is only 100 gold dragons.
Not to mention that Sansa killed the king, she is the first heir to Winterfell in the North, a prospective duke!
Only 100 gold dragons.
The first climax in "Game of Thrones" is Bran falling from the tower, and then Joffrey hired an assassin to kill him and paid a high price - 90 silver deer.
Well, one gold dragon can be exchanged for 210 silver deer.
The legitimate son of the Duke is only worth half a gold dragon.
"Too expensive." Dany shook her head repeatedly.
"Master, they think it's too expensive, and they also said that the ransom for a knight is only 100 gold dragons." The little translator said to the slave owner.
"Bang, bang, bang," the fat slave owner slapped the armrest of the chair and shouted loudly: "Damn it, ask them if 3,000 barbarian knights can withstand the impact of 20,000 roaring warriors."
Hearing the translation, Jorah said without hesitation: "Of course they can."
"Hahaha!" Kraznys pointed at the knight with a carrot-thick finger and laughed: "You should go to Qohor to see, the blacksmith craftsmanship there is the best in the world, and their heavy cavalry is so luxurious. Compared with them, you Westeros tin cans are just a group of beggar soldiers."
Dany couldn't refute this, because she knew how "steel" the Qohor heavy cavalry was, so she didn't understand why the centaurs who could overthrow the heavy cavalry fell at the feet of the light infantry.
Are the Qohor cavalry all just a bunch of idiots?
"The Qohor cavalry has excellent knight armor, but it does not have the superb martial arts and spirit of the Westeros knights."
Dany was not as tongue-tied as Jorah and Whitebeard, and her face flushed with anger, but she did not know how to refute.
After the baptism of the information age, she can easily find a lot of reasons, even if it is a heresy, she can speak passionately.
"The most important quality of a knight is chivalry, humility, honor, sacrifice, bravery, mercy, honesty, justice, and piety.
The strongest point of the Unsullied is that they are not afraid of sacrifice, but this is only the basic requirement to become a knight in Westeros.
If the story of 3,000 Unsullied defending Qohor happened in our Westeros, the knight team would have disbanded in shame long ago, unlike the Qohor cavalry, which is still living shamelessly to this day."
"Your Highness, you said it very well!"
Whitebeard's eyes were moist, and his mood had never been so excited. He intuitively felt that Her Highness had expressed the true way of knighthood in words.
Well, although before today, he had never heard of such a noble and elegant way of chivalry.
Maybe his comprehension is not enough?
Alas, I, the "fearless" Barristan, am not as good as the first legendary knight "Sword of Dawn"!
Well, Ser Arthur Dayne must understand.
Whitebeard thought excitedly.
"Since those barbaric tin cans are so powerful, why do you still come to buy the Unsullied?" The slave owner stood up and roared at the poor little translator: "Ask this Westeros bitch, I want to see how she answers!"
Can this stump Dany?
"Alas, it is precisely because I know how powerful the knights of Westeros are that I plan to go bankrupt and buy all the Unsullied!"
Dany's expression was vivid, and she lamented again and again, "My Lord, think about it, if one grilled sausage can fill you up, who would buy a second one? Isn't that a waste? With this money, I might as well buy a glass of milk."
"I'm worried that 8,000 Unsullied are not enough for the usurpers to kill!"
As she said that, she looked at the fat slave owner seriously and asked, "My Lord, tell me the truth, is there really only 8,000? To be on the safe side, I think the more Unsullied the better."
As Dany spoke, the little black girl translated, and Kraznys listened, holding his head and pulling his coarse black and red hair frantically.
He was going crazy.
He took a few deep breaths and pointed at Jorah Mormont, shouting, "Ask that bitch, since a knight is 100 gold dragons, I will buy him for 300 gold coins."
Aposta used gold coins just like Qarth. Three gold coins were approximately equal to one gold dragon.
"Swish!" Upon hearing this, Jorah suddenly drew the long sword from his waist, pointed at the slave owner and cursed, "You fat pig, go buy your old X."
Seeing Jorah like this, Kraznys laughed instead. He waved away the guards who rushed up and said lightly, "See, he's very angry. What does it mean? It means he feels insulted, because he thinks he is far more than 100 gold dragons.
Haha, my Unsullied has been trained since the age of 5, and is far superior to a regular knight in martial arts training and physical conditioning.
Does knight training have such a high mortality rate as the Unsullied?
Hey, the so-called knight, the only valuable thing is the meaning it represents.
Noble?
Ask this Westeros bitch, does she want a warrior or a noble status?
Tell her, a warrior of Aposta, a prostitute of Kaiyun, and a high-level slave (high-tech slave) of Meereen.
Noble status is also a trait. If you want to buy a noble, go to Meereen. You may be able to buy a few kings there, hahaha."
The slave owner was not lying. Slaves themselves were not valuable. For example, Dany could buy four centaur slaves with one silver coin.
But in the process of training a successful Unsullied, the slave owner paid too high a price.
An Unsullied who obtained a spiked helmet had five slave warriors who died of exhaustion during training lying beside him, and 10 children who failed the test were buried under his feet.
The expenses of those losers are naturally included in the cost of the Unsullied.
Therefore, the price of 160 gold dragons is a little expensive, but it is not a high price.
After a moment of hesitation, Dany said, "I bought a lot, can it be cheaper?"
The slave owner said a few words to the little translator, and the little black girl said, "Your Majesty, use all your jewelry and goods to exchange for 4,000 Unsullied, and then the good master will give you an additional 100 Unsullied."
Even a 10% discount is not enough, too stingy!
"Excuse me, what other property do you have that you haven't shown?" The little translator asked again.
"On the sea route from Qarth to Aposta, I encountered a pirate ship," Dany said thoughtfully, "My lord, have you heard of the 'Red Devil' that has been making a lot of noise on the Summer Sea recently?"
After hearing the little translator's words, the slave owner held the armrest of the chair, stood up in shock, and asked, "Did this bitch rob that pirate ship? No wonder she is so rich."
"The red-shelled longship docked at the dock is the Red Devil, Euron Greyjoy, a sea monster family in the Ironborn Bay of Westeros. I am now holding him in the bottom warehouse." Dany said.
The slave owner's fat and sweaty right hand gently patted the mahogany armrest, and said carefully: "I didn't expect that these guys even captured the Red Demon. New Ghis, Qarth, and the Jade Sea City-State Alliance have all issued wanted orders for the one-eyed demon, and the total number is more than 100,000 gold coins.
Tell that woman that the Red Demon Ship and the Pirate King can be exchanged for 1,000 Unsullied from me."
After hearing the little translator's words, Whitebeard hurriedly advised: "Your Highness, Euron is a lord. If you sell him as a slave, not only will the Greyjoy family feel greatly humiliated, but all the nobles of the Seven Kingdoms will feel the same."
"He's not a slave," the little translator explained, "The Red Demon is notorious in the Jade Sea, and many city-states have wanted orders for him. And the good master said that, let alone a lord, even a king can't be exchanged for 10 Unsullied from him."
"If it were any other place, it wouldn't be a big deal to hand Euron over to the city-state guards, but this is Slaver's Bay, Aposta, and the person being handed over is a notorious slave owner." Whitebeard was very anxious, fearing that Dany would sell Euron.
1,000 Unsullied, Euron is too valuable!
In fact, Euron is only worth 500 Unsullied. The Serenity has become very popular in the Jade Sea and the Summer Sea, and its value has risen to 500 Unsullied. Many city-states want to study the ship and want to know why it is so fast.
Dany waved her hand to tell the old man not to get excited. She glanced at the slave owner meaningfully and said with a smile: "I promised that if Euron told me the correct way to enter the ruins of Valyria, I would give him and his group of pirates freedom. The queen's reputation is worth three dragons, and 10,000 Unsullied can't buy it."
"Your Highness is wise!" Whitebeard breathed a sigh of relief and praised with a smile.
"The ruins of ancient Valyria?" After hearing the little translator's words, the slave owner's face changed drastically. His thick three-chin trembled as he said, "Quick, Nass, stupid sheep, ask, ask that bitch quickly, did the red demon really go to the ruins of Valyria in the sea of smoke?"
"Dang, dang, dang!" Dany knocked a few times on the smoky black arm armor of Jorah beside her, "Look at this low-key and luxurious armor, and then look at the faint Valyrian magic runes. My good master, who do you think, except the Dragon King, has such noble Valyrian steel armor?"
"Harpy," the fat slave owner stared at Jorah's armor with his eyes almost bulging out three inches, and groaned, "Yesterday I thought this barbarian knight was the same as those, cough cough, I thought he got a fake Dragon King armor to show off his taste!"
Six thousand years ago, the ancient Ghis Empire's Sons of the Harpy Legion dominated the continent and was invincible, and the training method of the Unsullied was to simulate the Ghis Legion.
Now that the Gith have fallen into slavery, they no longer have the bravery of their ancestors - in fact, after being tamed by Valyria for 5,000 years, there are no pure Gith in Slaver's Bay at all, they are all mixed-blood - but the Aposta slavers are still proud of their identity as "Sons of the Harpy".
They live in pyramids, wear tokar robes, and their black and red hair stand up high.
Then, young people imitate the dress of the old imperial legion warriors, put on the Valyrian dragon king armor, and command eunuch slaves to fight each other in the arena, pretending to be an ancient imperial general and a Valyrian dragon king.
