The tournament was held in the open space outside Highgarden City, and the tournament had already begun. Werther and the Duke of Metz did not go to the venue but to the nearby sugar cane fields and were discussing the issue of sugar cane paper.
This year's grain production in the Reach has increased compared to last year, and a large amount of sugar cane has been planted for sugar production. However, a large amount of bagasse is left after sugar production. When Wit came to Highgaring and passed by a workshop, he thought of using bagasse.
To make paper.
Paper made from sugarcane bagasse, unless it can reach modern technology, is soft enough, but the surface is not smooth and absorbs a lot of water, so it cannot be written on at all. However, it is very useful for wiping buttocks, and it is very comfortable to have toilet paper.<
/p>
Werther originally wanted to give this business to Renly. Although toilet paper is cheap, it is still a consumable product that every household needs. Selling it to the entire continent can turn Renly into a toilet paper tycoon. But in this world, there is no way to go down.
It has a bad reputation. The most important thing is that with the transportation capacity of the Westeros continent, it can only be carried out in the Reach, the origin of sugar cane. Otherwise, the cost will be too high, and you may have to lose money.
Moreover, the Duke of Metz was very interested after Werther mentioned it. He could arrange to do it in the name of other people in the family. He didn't have to worry about reputation, as long as he could make money.
Witte thought for a while [There will be many things that require raw materials from High Court in the future, and there are many things that can make money, not least this one. And the inflatable fish is not much better than the toilet paper tycoon, it’s you.] p>
Now the two were discussing production details in the sugar cane field. Metz was preparing to build a sugar cane juice pressing workshop nearby, when suddenly a guard wearing a crowned stag's cloak came running
"Duke Renly was stabbed in the abdomen and seriously injured during the joust. He was carried back to the guest room. Please come over, my lord"
Werther immediately started running [I remember that the original Red Viper crippled Willas's leg in Highgarden, but Willas is only 13 years old now and has never participated in a competition. No one from the Red Viper came this time. This should have happened in
What happens next. Could someone want to hurt Renly and provoke a conflict between Highgarden and Storm's End?]
The more Werther thinks about it, the worse it gets.
[Renly is now his own brother, and he is also his tool to make money. If you dare to touch Renly, your whole family’s skulls will be blown away!]
The Duke of Mace was too fat to run fast, so Werther ran into the guest room first. Everyone in the Tyrell family arrived except Margaery. Renly had stripped off his upper body, and there was a finger-long wound on his abdomen that was bleeding. The maid was getting water to clean the wound.
.
"That's it? I thought you were going to die." Werther asked Renly, pointing to the wound. With Renly's magical ability, the wound could heal in less than a minute.
"I have used healing skills to treat you, but now that my magic power is exhausted, I asked the guards to find you. Maybe what he said was a little serious." Renly was a little weak.
Vert looked at the wound carefully. If the wound was still like this after using the treatment, it must have been very serious before. He took his right hand and cast a healing spell on Renly. The wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye until it disappeared. p>
The use of magic has been told to Robert a few years ago, and also told Renly that there is no need to hide it. But there are not many occasions to show it. Many people think that the Baratheon brothers are just talking about it. This time the Tyrell family
People saw it with their own eyes, but it was hard for them to ask on this occasion.
Werther saw that Renly's face was pale and his lips were also white. He must have lost a lot of blood before.
"Go and ask the maester to bring you the blood transfusion equipment, and I will transfuse some blood into Renly." Witte ordered the guard next to him.
In the past two years, Witte has taken the initiative. With the continuous exploration of medical students in the city, many people died due to the exploration. The strength of the spirits used for disinfection has become higher and higher. The blood testing and blood transfusion technology has become quite advanced, but there is no way to preserve it.
Blood. Moreover, people on the mainland are still mentally resistant to this method and cannot promote it.
The bachelor brought a full set of tools over and prepared to test Werther's blood first.
"Just transfuse blood directly. Renly and I are identical twins, so there is no need for a blood test." Witte said directly to the Grand Maester.
Seeing that the bachelor did not move, Witte added, "My name is Witte, and I invented this technology."
The bachelor immediately realized that Werther, who was currently in the limelight in the academy, had made many great academic contributions and was the object of admiration and jealousy of countless scholars. The academy even opened a new agriculture department for him.
The maester no longer hesitated, prepared tools and began to disinfect his hands and blood transfusion tools. Renly had never experienced blood transfusion, and his eyes were full of doubts.
Witte looked at the Archmaester's unskilled technique [I guess there is not much chance to practice it, many people in the city have practiced it on pigs, dogs and rabbits]
"I'd better do it myself, a bachelor can do it"
The bachelor immediately handed over the tools. This is top-notch teaching. Watch every step of Witte carefully.
The others watched the blood flowing from Wirt's arm along the pipe into Renly's arm. Renly's complexion gradually improved from pale. He didn't know whether he was shocked by magic or the blood transfusion. For a while, no one spoke, they just watched quietly.
By.
Finally, it was Lady Olenna who broke the silence: "Renly, now that you have grown up and begun to participate in tourneys, Loras Tyrell, are you willing to be a knight's squire for Renly?"
Loras Tyrell has seen Renly's bravery in the fighting field. Although he has the blessing of magic, it is very rare for him to dare to fight in the fighting field at this age.

The next day, Renly was able to jump around. Werther and Lan stood on the windowsill of the castle and looked at the competition ground in the distance. Renly had been eliminated and no longer needed to go.
"I forgot to ask you yesterday, why did you go to the martial arts competition? How did you get injured?"
"Didn't I learn Stoneskin? I just wanted to cast a spell and no one else could hit me, so I borrowed a set of armor from the guards to participate in the competition," Renly said
"It went very well at first. I put a Stoneskin spell on myself before every game. My opponents and the audience only saw the magic flash on me, and didn't know the specific effect. They just added it up as if they were against ordinary knights. The result was that they didn't win at all.
If you don’t move me, you will be defeated by me”
Werther asked Renly, "Then how did you get injured?"

"I didn't have enough magic power. I only had enough to fight Stoneskin once. After winning a few games, I met an opponent. We broke more than 10 spears until my Stoneskin dissipated. I used to rely on Stoneskin for defense.
, did not notice that the armor was crooked, and was stabbed through the abdomen."
"The armor is all custom-made. The borrowed armor will definitely not fit you, and it will definitely become loose when you ride on the horse. When we have the money, we will make a set of armor for each of us." When Wit heard Renly say this, it seems that no one wanted to harm him.
Renly, feel relieved.
"You are also preparing to participate in the tourney." Renly asked
"Yes, you can participate. Why can't I participate? But I have to do it after returning to the city." Witte was very sure.
"But after I used magic yesterday, the audience looked at me with surprise and disdain, as if I was cheating." Renly felt a little uncomfortable.
Witte thought for a while and expressed his opinion, "Indeed, if it is on the battlefield, it is about life and death. Even dragons can go to the battlefield and spray dragon fire. Only the winner can speak. If you win the war with magic, you will become a hero.
.
The tourney is not a battlefield, it is a place that pays attention to fairness. If you can do magic but they can't, they will think you are cheating and bullying others. In the tourney, you have to win with equal strength to them, and then they will think you are very good.
Glory. For example, in many duels, if one party only has one hand, his opponent will also take the initiative to give up one hand."
"Then we won't be able to use magic in tournaments from now on?" Renly asked
"No, it would be best if you use force to defeat them, but what if the other party is also a magician?" Renly looked at Werther in confusion
Wert said to Renly with a smile, "For example, if you meet me at the tourney in the future."
"Then why fight? I'll just admit defeat." Renly replied decisively
"I will use the same magic power as you to fight you fairly"
"Then I am very much looking forward to dueling with you, but it won't work this time. It will take at least half a month for my magic power to be fully restored." Renly's expectations were high. After all, he has seen many knights dueling, but he has never heard of a mage dueling.
Saw it.
The two brothers looked into the distance again "The age of magic will eventually come"
