Capítulo 30: New Ideas for Trading
Josh, who was unaware of the not-so-good situation of several "good people" who had been blamed for their misdeeds, did not care much about it.
As long as he was living a good life, it was fine.
He would sleep until dawn every day, and in his spare time, he would go horseback riding and sunbathing at the farm outside with Margaret or play golf and bowling.
Alternatively, he would go boating in Michigan, watch plays in the theater, or movies in the cinema.
His leisurely life was exceptionally rich.
They looked together like a bunch of newlyweds on their honeymoon.
Of course, while being paired with Margaret, Josh did not forget about his career, smuggling deals with Daenerys.
Although most of the time, he was inseparable from Margaret, he still had some free time.
So, occasionally, he would run to various gun shops, bookstores, and black markets in Chicago to purchase the things Daenerys needed.
At 7:00 pm every night, whether there was a deal or not, he would spend half an hour locking himself in the study to contact Daenerys.
Although Margaret was a little curious about Josh's special habit of locking himself in the study for half an hour daily, she did not inquire about it.
After all, she was not a naive little girl and understood the importance of giving the other person enough personal space.
Moreover, Josh still maintained good living habits as most urban youths did in his previous life: not smoking, not drinking, not gambling, and not going to brothels (no opportunity).
A man with such good living habits was a rare treasure in Margaret's eyes, and she cherished him.
He can be a bit domineering in matters concerning her, but in Margaret's eyes, this is completely a positive trait.
So why bother about such insignificant little things?
"Daenerys, I have brought you some new things." It was another night at 7:00 pm, and Josh looked at Daenerys on the screen, dressed in a gorgeous court gown.
This court-long dress was actually a gift from Josh to Daenerys. It's the same style as the one worn by Elizabeth, the Queen, and Josh had it custom-made at a high price.
Hmm, that's right. It was Elizabeth, not the queen.
After all, in 1943, the stammering King George VI was still the king of England.
And the future queen, famous for her longevity, was just an 18-year-old girl at this time.
Due to the limitations of productivity and Daenerys's current environment, her clothing in her world was considered high-end, but when placed on Earth, not to mention early 20th-century America.
Even compared to the noble clothing of 15th and 16th-century Europe, it seemed too simple.
Of course, even earlier than that, before the Renaissance, European court clothing was no more beautiful than that of Westeros.
But Daenerys really liked this long dress.
After all, there's no woman who doesn't love beauty.
And as a queen, she needed to highlight her special status through decoration on many public occasions.
"What is it?" Daenerys asked curiously.
"It's this!" With Josh's operation, Daenerys received a trading notification.
After confirming the trade, Daenerys looked at some jewelry and tableware.
Her gaze quickly became fixed.
Because just like the court gown Josh gave her before, this jewelry and tableware were too exquisite.
There is no doubt that Daenerys is not someone who has never seen the world.
In terms of wealth, Josh now was not even a fraction of Daenerys'.
So now, just talking about the jewellery's quantity, size, quality, and other aspects alone. Josh couldn't give Daenerys any surprises.
Even the ordinary royal aristocrats and billionaires on Earth couldn't necessarily compare to Daenerys.
But just because the raw materials can't be compared doesn't mean the craftsmanship is bad.
As long as you have watched Game of Thrones and paid a little attention, you can't help but notice those jewelry decorations that have an obvious style but are actually extremely rough.
Although manual craftsmanship can often give a soul to a work of art that is different from a mechanical product.
But no matter how good the craftsman is, he also needs technical assistance.
Therefore, in ancient times, gemstone polishing was a very delicate and highly intensive technical job.
Especially for diamonds, they are difficult to cut because of their high hardness.
And because they are so hard, they are brittle, and if you don't handle them properly, a perfectly good large diamond can crack and break.
In addition, some materials that are worthless and abundant in modern times were extremely precious in ancient times.
For example, aluminum...
Aluminum extraction requires electrolysis, so its preciousness is self-evident in a world like Westeros, which still maintains a semi-slave and semi-feudal society.
So what Josh gave Daenerys was a set of exquisite aluminum diamond jewelry.
All the cutlery was made of aluminum as well.
These things, which were worthless in early 20th century America, were enough to become the supreme collection of any royal aristocrat in Daenerys's world.
"Very exquisite jewelry, huh? What material is this? I thought it was silver, but it's so lightweight," Daenerys initially thought that the jewelry was just exquisitely crafted silver or platinum, but after picking them up, she realized that it was a metal that was even lighter and softer than silver, something she had never seen before.
"This is aluminum. I'm not afraid to tell you that it's a metal with a very high reserve in our world. Theoretically, it's the same in your world, but its extraction process is quite special. With your world's technology, it's almost impossible to extract it, maybe the dragon flames you raise can, but the output is another matter!" Josh raised his eyebrows and didn't say anymore.
But Daenerys understood very clearly.
"Interesting, I think I understand what you mean," Daenerys's face was full of smiles. "I have to say, this is indeed a very interesting idea, Josh. Really, besides gold, you don't want anything else? Honestly, Josh, if you keep going like this, my gold reserve will be emptied by you sooner or later."
Since Josh had clearly stated that this thing was worthless in his world, it meant that Daenerys could exchange it for ordinary gold, platinum, or other wealth at a relatively low price.
And then sell it at a price far higher than gold or even platinum to those noble and wealthy people, making a huge fortune.
It was another win-win transaction.
"Haha, Your Majesty is joking. It won't be easy to empty your gold reserve with what I give you. But speaking of which, I do have some new ideas about our trade," Josh smiled and said.
"Tell me about it," Daenerys said.
"Raw materials!" Josh spoke up.
