Bang!
The thick iron door of Casterly Rock City's underground storage room finally failed to hold up under the constant impact of huge force, and collapsed heavily to the ground.
"Light the brazier!"
Theon, who was following Robb, looked at the dark storage room hall and gave instructions to the ironborn beside him.
As several ironmen walked along the left and right directions of the hall, lighting the brazier with torches, this unusually wide storage room suddenly became brightly lit.
This storage room is a square hall with a floor height of about six meters and a length and width of about fifty or sixty meters.
In the hall, there are thick wall pillars engraved with angry lions, stably supporting this wide underground space.
On the left side of the hall are rows of weapon racks stacked neatly close to the top of the hall. Brand-new weapons of various styles are placed on them.
The most common weapons are swords, including two-handed swords, broadswords, half-handed swords, etc. Other weapons include spears, axes, hammers, bows and crossbows.
These weapons should have been treated to prevent rust. Under the flickering firelight, these sharp weapons shone coldly from time to time.
On the right side are various types of armors arranged equally neatly, including heavy plate armor, ordinary plate armor, scale armor, mail armor, and leather armor. However, all the armors are uniformly printed with Lannister's wrath.
Lion family emblem.
If the northern soldiers wanted to use it, they would have to spend some money to hire a blacksmith to slightly modify the style and change the family emblem.
As expected of the Golden Family, these well-made weapons and armors can equip an elite army of nearly ten thousand people at any time!
Robb led Theon and the northern earls who participated in the war, walking in the middle passage of the storage room hall.
He has been living in the barren northern border, and today he finally sees what it means to be wealthy!
"Wow! These equipment are so well made and the quality is very good!"
"Our family's soldiers have been rotating the worn-out equipment of the previous generation of soldiers."
"No way! This is just the storage room of the Lannister family? Are you sure it's not the storage room of the entire Westeros?"
Listening to the Earls of the North exclaiming and talking in succession behind him, a smile appeared on Robb's lips.
It seems that he is not the only country bumpkin from the north!
When Robb and others walked for a while and came to the end of the storage room, there were twelve black wooden boxes lined up here.
These wooden boxes are about fifty or sixty centimeters wide and thirty or forty centimeters high.
"Open the box!"
Robb stared at the boxes and ordered without looking back.
After hearing his order, Theon did not ask the ironmen beside him to open the wooden box. Instead, he stepped forward himself to see if the items in the box were what he thought.
Squeak!
Theon walked to the box and looked back. Robb and the silent Earls of the North behind him reached out and opened the lid of the black wooden box.
Gulu!
I don't know who swallowed saliva too loudly. It was especially obvious in the quiet atmosphere at this time.
However, it’s not his fault, after all, money is so attractive!
In the black wooden box opened by Xion, gold nuggets as thick as forearms were neatly stacked in it.
They shine with a charming yellow luster under the surrounding firelight!
Squeak, squeak!
Seeing that the black wooden boxes were all filled with golden gold as he expected, Xion looked excited and quickly opened the other black wooden boxes.
All are nuggets!
The rest of the black wooden boxes lined up in this row are all the same as the first wooden box that was opened, with boxes full of gold nuggets neatly stacked.
Even though the Lannister family's gold mine has been exhausted, even though the Lannister family borrowed millions of gold dragons from the royal family.
But after all, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse!
Just the remaining gold that Tywin kept in the storage room of Casterly Rock is already more wealth than the North could accumulate in decades or hundreds of years!
"Lord Rickard, Lord Jon."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty, I am here!"
Hearing Robb call his name, Lord Rickard and Greatjon walked out from behind,
He saluted and responded.
"In this attack on Casterly Rock, the Karstark and Umber families bravely charged forward and suffered great losses, but at the same time, they also achieved great success.
I allow you to choose whatever you want among these trophies."
Robb looked at the two northern earls who were very loyal and willing to fight for him, and said with a smile.
After hearing that Robb recognized his contribution and asked him to choose the trophies first, Earl Rickard and the Great Jon immediately saluted happily and replied: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Great Jon had a straightforward personality and didn’t think too much. After bowing and thanking him, he rushed directly to the black wooden box.
He grabbed a gold nugget as thick as his forearm with both hands and stuffed it into his arms. Not only were these nuggets big, but they were also heavy. The Great Jon only stuffed three of them into his armor, and it was so heavy that it even weighed down the armor.
It has to be somewhat deformed.
Seeing that it really couldn't be stuffed, Great Jon thought for a while, took another gold nugget in his left and right hands, and turned around to walk back.
As a result, when he turned around, he saw Robb and all the Earls of the North looking at him quietly.
At this time, Great Jon also reacted, an awkward smile appeared on his ferocious face and said: "Did I... take too much?"
"Haha, Great Jon, this gold nugget is worth at least a thousand gold dragons.
You just got close to five thousand golden dragons, which is not too much!
However, do you have five thousand golden dragons from your castle’s savings over the years?”
Hearing his question, the earls from the North let out a mocking word for him.
"Five thousand golden dragons? If you can find five hundred golden dragons in my last furnace wall city, I will give you the entire castle!"
The Great Jon didn't hear the joke in this statement, rolled his eyes, and told his family background very honestly.
Hahaha!
When Robb and the others heard this, they couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Not much, not much, Earl Jon, I told you, it's up to you to choose!"
After laughing happily, Robb shook his head and spoke very seriously.
He has never been stingy with his subordinates who sacrificed their lives for him.
In order to establish military discipline and establish one's own prestige, severe punishment is necessary, as well as generous rewards!
Beneath Earl Rickard's rough appearance, there is a shrewd heart.
Seeing that Robb allowed the Greatjon to take away five gold nuggets and compare them secretly, he pointed to the armor piled aside and said to Robb: "Your Majesty, I want to obtain six hundred pairs of this complete set of armor."
Robb looked at the armor he pointed at. It was a set of fine mail, including a gorget, greaves and a full helmet.
The value of this set of armor is about ten gold dragons. Taking into account the handling fees such as the Lannister family emblem that needs to be changed, the value is similar to the gold nuggets that the Great Jon took.
"As you wish, Count Rickard!"
Since Lord Rickard knew the rules and was not greedy, Robb nodded and directly agreed to his request.
Seeing that Earl Rickard and Great Jon had both received heavy rewards, Theon looked at Robb with bright eyes.
But Robb did not continue to award the reward as he thought. Instead, he turned to the other northern earls and said: "The Lannister family still has a lot of food stored in it, and there are two thousand horses in the stables. In short, as long as there are
Transport everything of value to me!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Everyone nodded in reply, turned around and left the storage room, and began to carry out their duties to carry the wealth of Casterly Rock City.
"What? Are you a little unhappy because I didn't give you a reward?"
Robb turned his head and saw the unhappy expression on Theon's face, and asked.
"I led the team to open the left door of Casterly Rock City. This is not the first achievement, but the second merit!
In the end, there was no reward at all!”
Hearing this, Xion rolled his eyes and replied angrily.
"Brother, outsiders need rewards to win people's hearts!
Don’t worry, when the time comes, I will supplement your Iron Islands with whatever you need.”
Seeing that there was no one else, Robb spoke very sincerely.
"Brother! That's right, Robb, we brothers don't have to be too outspoken!"
