Chapter 45 Purple Dragon Egg
In fact, the plan given by Brother Long Er was quite low-tech.
That is to quietly replace the water pipes in your home and use something else instead.
In this way, after ten or twenty years, the Zainen family will have more smart and strong children, and the other two families will naturally decline slowly.
According to Brother Long's investigation of Braavos, perhaps because of the lead water pipes, the class mobility in Braavos is very high.
Because of the low fertility of the top classes, they had to give up their positions to the lower classes.
This is why it is difficult for the three major families to fully control Braavos, but it also makes Braavos powerful from another perspective.
Because the source of talent is more extensive.
However, Mrs. Meisers' intuition told her that if all the important positions were held by her descendants, then the family would definitely become stronger!
For a moment, she seemed to be caught up in the blueprint drawn by Brother Long Er.
There was a look of intoxication in his eyes.
But after all, she was in a high position, so she reacted quickly.
"I already know why you're here."
Brother Long Er smiled and nodded, not surprised at all.
The appearance of soap has attracted the attention of many nobles in Braavos.
The three major families are naturally no exception.
As for Mercers, she was just a little surprised that the person who invented soap was Dany's brother.
He even had a premonition that Viserys might come looking for him.
Soon, Brother Long reached an agreement with Meisers.
He contributed the soap formula, and the production and sales were all handled by the Zainen family.
As for his share, it dropped from 45 percent to 10 percent.
Although the price dropped by more than four times at once, with the strength of the Zainen family, it would be able to sell it to the entire Free City within half a year.
Even Westeros and Slaver's Bay will soon see soaps.
Messers' husband is already in his fifties and has to take charge of the fleet himself because of the lack of successors in the family.
Therefore, I have been away from home for many years.
The Zainen family is basically run by Mrs. Meisers.
So there are some means.
The two's plan was that since they had already decided to turn against the Frega family because of this matter, they might as well do it thoroughly.
Don't stop the workshop on Freyr's side, use it as bait for cover.
She would set aside another workshop for soap production.
Of course, an agreement between two people does not need any written support.
Now Brother Long's value lies only in keeping the secret of lead poisoning.
If he does not have the strength to match this profit in two or three years, this 10% share will be gradually swallowed up.
This result is far better than what Brother Long had imagined.
If everything goes well, the soap business will bring him at least hundreds of thousands of gold royals in revenue in two or three years.
Dany, who was sitting nearby, saw for the first time what "intrigue" was.
She also realized that the crisis caused by the uninvited guest Anderson had been eliminated.
As the two were about to leave, Viserys spoke:
"Madam, I wonder if your family has any dragon eggs in their collection?"
Messers glanced at the second brother Long, as if she wanted to see something from his eyes.
"I know this must be the most precious collection in your house if there is one. I just want Dany to see it. As a Targaryen, she has never even seen a dragon egg. It is really a dereliction of duty for her brother."
Hearing him say this, Messers's expression softened again.
"Of course," she said, then winked at Bellina.
Bellina nodded and went to get it.
'Dragon eggs!'
Dany's eyes widened, this thing should be a Targaryen's 'specialty', but as a pure Targaryen, she had never seen it with her own eyes.
I have only seen it in the stories told by Brother Long Er and in some paintings.
"Wait here for a moment. I'll leave first. The dragon egg will be delivered soon."
"Okay, thank you ma'am."
A moment later, Bellina returned to the terrace holding a black wooden box.
"Here it comes, it's a real, complete dragon egg!"
Brother Long Er was excited and looking forward to it.
Last time, just a piece of dragon egg fragment provided him with three distributable points.
How much will this complete dragon egg provide?
The box was placed on the table with a dull thud.
But just now, it seemed that Bellina held it very steadily, as if she had practiced before.
This is normal. After all, as the mistress of the family, Mercers can't just have a vase around her to serve tea and water.
Bellina opened the box, revealing a purple dragon egg!
This is indeed a complete dragon egg!
It's about the size of an electric kettle.
In addition to the scaly pattern on it, there are three silver patterns running through the entire dragon egg.
Like three silver lightning bolts.
Dany on the side stared with her eyes wide open.
The purple dragon egg is like a huge purple gem, shining brightly in the morning light.
"Can I touch it?"
Brother Long Er spoke.
If she doesn't want you to touch her, you have to touch her even if you pretend to be careless.
Fortunately, she did not refuse.
Maybe it's because of Mercers' importance to Viserys, or maybe it's because of Mercers' love for Dany.
However, the former is more likely.
"Try to be careful."
"OK."
Brother Long Er took out the dragon egg fossil from the box, only to find it was cold to the touch.
Belina's eyes never left the dragon egg in the second brother's hand.
Just in case he really drops it, go forward and catch it yourself.
[Complete dragon egg fossil, extract 10.5 distributable points, continue to hold it to get an additional 0.5 distributable points per day. ]
10 points! 0.5 every day!
This is the value of a complete dragon egg!
"Come, touch it." The second dragon brother held the dragon egg in front of Dany and said.
Dany carefully stretched out her right hand, spread her thumb and little finger, and lightly touched the dragon egg with just the tips of her middle three fingers.
It seemed as if the dragon egg in Brother Long's hand would be broken if he exerted a little force.
She just touched it lightly twice and then stopped.
Brother Long put the dragon egg back into the box and said:
"Well, today's trip is really worthwhile. Please thank the lady for me."
Bellina closed the box and nodded.
Viserys decided that this matter should be kept secret for the time being and that Faria should not be told about it.
Not only did Morel need to continue acting, but she naturally couldn't stop either.
Although the workshop was definitely lost in the end, Morel and his sons definitely did not lose out by gaining the friendship of the Zainen family.
And there was no doubt that Messers would compensate her.
But at this moment, Faria didn't know what had happened suddenly, but when the celebration began, she would definitely get more support from the Zainen family.
But the situation on Faria's side is not good.
After falling out with Brother Long, Anderson couldn't wait to launch an attack on her.
