Chapter 48 Persuasion
"However, I am worried that Earl Layton will not agree to revise the contract."
"Well, there is indeed a possibility." Margaret also felt that the Hightower family would not easily agree to share profits with others, so she said, "How about I ask my mother to talk to Earl Layton?"
"This is not good." Samwell quickly persuaded, "If this is spread, others will say that the Tyrell family is robbing their vassals for profit."
"Okay then." Margaery had to give up the idea just now, "How sure are you that you can persuade Earl Layton to re-sign the contract?"
"Well..." Samwell put on a heartbroken expression, "It depends on how much I am willing to give up to the Hightower family. Hey, Earl Layton will probably ask for a higher share."
Margaret also felt a little embarrassed when she heard the words, and said:
"Thank you Sam, I will explain this to my father and ask him to give you a higher share to make up for the loss."
"You are such a kind lady!" Samwell tried not to laugh out loud, "Actually, I would rather be compensated in other ways than share."
"other aspects?"
"Yes. As you know, most of my current citizens are savages, and there are too few Hewan people among them. There is a great hidden danger hidden in the racial imbalance, and it may explode one day. , and as a nobleman of Hewan, I still trust the people of Hewan more. Therefore, I hope that His Excellency the Duke will allow me to send people to collect the refugees in High Court and let them go to Yingzui Island to become my subjects."
"This..." Margaret hesitated.
Of course she is aware of the importance of the population of the territory. Any smart lord will not allow his subjects to leave, even those without land.
The last time Samwell secretly recruited dock laborers to develop, it was actually a violation of the rules, but because the number of people recruited was not too many, the Tyrell family didn't bother with him.
Now he has the idea of being a refugee again.
Margery didn’t know how many refugees there were in Highgarden, but it was definitely not a small number. How could Samwell abduct them casually?
Seeing that Margaery hesitated, Samwell persuaded again:
"Miss Margaery, those refugees who lost their land can't pay taxes for the Tyrell family, and keeping them will only affect the urban environment. The more they are, the more polluted the beautiful Highgarden will be. So please let them Let me erase this scar for House Tyrell!"
"I'll go back and discuss it with my father." Margaery still didn't agree directly, and then seemed to be worried that it would chill Samwell's heart, so she quickly added, "Don't worry, even if father doesn't agree to let you gather the refugees, you can Will compensate you in other ways."
But I just want population!
Samwell now has only a few hundred Hewan people under his command. Compared with the tens of thousands of savages, this number is too small, and as he gradually expands to the depths of the Red Mountains, he will definitely conquer more savages in the future, but Hewan It is difficult to replenish the number of Taiwanese.
Although Samwell does not actually discriminate against savages, this proportional imbalance exists objectively, and racial problems will easily erupt in the future.
The best way is to increase the number of Hewan people in the territory. It may not necessarily exceed the savages, but at least they must occupy a sufficient proportion so that the savages will not dare to mess around.
Moreover, with enough people from the River Bend, Samwell can promote the intermarriage of the two races and promote racial integration, instead of being like now, there are not enough people from the River Bend under his hands to be divided into savage girls.
Thinking of this, Samwell said again:
"Miss Margaret, I know that you are different from ordinary noble ladies. You have a kind heart. When I was in High Court, I heard beggars say that you received alms from you, and the baker said that you bought Their hot pie, I heard from the farmer that you had a cordial conversation with them...Although you were born noble, you were never high. So I believe that you also understand the difficult life of those refugees who lost their land.
I am here to assure you that after those refugees become my subjects, as long as they are willing to work hard, they will have no worries about food and clothing! May the Seven Gods bear witness to my words! "
Hearing this, Margaery finally couldn't help looking into Samwell's eyes.
Samwell immediately looked at him with the most honest and confident eyes.
After a long time, the beautiful girl finally nodded seriously and said:
"Okay, I will try my best to persuade father to agree to your conditions."
This is the promise I want!
Samwell was ecstatic in his heart, if he wasn't worried about being beaten to death, he really wanted to hug the girl in front of him and kiss her.
Since Margaret said so, then this matter is basically a sure thing.
The Duke of Metz has never been very assertive, and he will not break his precious daughter's heart for some lowly refugees.
"Thank you for your help, Miss Margery, your kindness will definitely be rewarded!"
"Sir Caesar." Margaery's tone suddenly became solemn, "I hope you can remember today's promise. Perhaps one day I will go to your territory in person, and if I find that their living conditions have not improved..."
"Then you can announce to everyone that Samwell Caesar is a man who broke his oath!" Samwell said solemnly.
"Okay!" Margaery smiled sweetly again, "I believe you won't let me down, my knight."
Samwell looked at the girl's clear eyes, but suddenly felt guilty—
Is it really okay for me to try my best to calculate a little girl, and even take advantage of her kindness?
But immediately, Samwell comforted himself—he really has the ability to make those refugees live a good life.
Brandy and silver mines, with these two cash cows, Yingzui Island will definitely become a wealthy territory.
So, he is really not cheating.
However, using and calculating are really useless...
But if you want to achieve a career, how can you not use some small tricks?
As for Miss Margery... just find a way to compensate her in the future.
Samwell suddenly thought that this "Highgarden Rose" had a bad ending. The Tyrell family wanted her to become queen, so as to return to the core of power. She also married three times under the family arrangement. A king, but they are all short-lived ghosts...
So, Samwell felt it was his responsibility to save Miss Margery from the fire, and the best way to stop it—
is to marry her!
It’s really not because she is greedy for her beauty and background, let alone to get a powerful and prosperous Reach, but because she really can’t bear to see the kind and beautiful Miss Margery repeatedly being mistreated by others.
Of course, Samwell also clearly realized that with his current strength and status, it was absolutely impossible to marry Margaery.
Fortunately, he still has time.
Margaret married for the first time during the Five Kings Rebellion, almost two and a half years from now.
In two and a half years, from a pioneering lord who didn't even build a castle to being qualified to marry the daughter of a duke, this is undoubtedly a fantasy.
But Samwell felt that he could challenge it.
If you can't even do this, then you're still delusional about the Iron Throne.
Thinking of this, he continued to spin on the dance floor with his arms around Margaery with peace of mind.
With the bagpipe blowing a long bass, the dance music came to an end.
Samwell also stopped, took Margaery's hand, and escorted her to the periphery.
"Thank you, Sir Caesar."
"It's my pleasure, Miss Margery."
Just as Samwell let go of Margaery's little hand, he saw Duke Renly walking over.
He nodded to Samwell first, and then politely invited Margery to dance to the next dance.
Of course Margaret would not refuse.
Watching Margaery being taken away by Duke Renly, Samwell was about to go back to eat his golden tail shrimp, but when he turned around, he heard Duke Renly say to Margaery:
"Miss Margery, your beauty has overshadowed the stars tonight. I just brought a painter along, and I wonder if I can ask him to do a portrait for you?"
Hearing this, Samwell suddenly stopped.
If other men said such things to Margaery, it could be considered a veiled courtship.
But Duke Renly... this guy probably wants to paint Margaery's brother Loras more.
Samwell watched the backs of the two walking into the dance floor together, and suddenly remembered an inconspicuous detail in the original book—
In the near future, Duke Renly will show a portrait to Eddard Stark, Duke of the North, and the person in the painting is Margaery Tyrell!
At this moment, Samwell suddenly guessed why Duke Renly came to the towering tower suddenly, and why Margaery just came back with her mother to visit her grandfather.
He smelled conspiracy.
