Moreover, given the position and power Jason had already achieved in Westeros, the advisory group, on behalf of the country, officially recognized his authority.
They decided to respect the "medieval feudal" traditions of that world and agreed on a three-step plan.
Support Jason in eliminating the White Walker crisis.
Help him unify the kingdoms of Westeros.
Provide full modern support to help him take control of the entire world of A Song of Ice and Fire.
To be honest, the leadership didn't really care if Jason became the supreme ruler.
What the modern side needed was peace and stability in Westeros.
After all, a stable environment is the only way to develop a business economy.
If Westeros was constantly at war, as it was now, it would be impossible to mobilize the local workforce or develop the cheap raw materials they needed to transport back.
Jason, of course, completely agreed with this.
Who wouldn't want to be the king of a country, or even the master of an entire world?
Before, he was on his own, just smuggling a few flintlock guns.
Now, with the full support of his home world, he was confident that the undead wouldn't be a problem at all. Conquering Westeros would be easy.
To support his unification, the modern side approved the sale of old guns—weapons that had been stored in warehouses for decades. They would sell them to Jason at a low price to equip his new army.
Yes, these were old rifles and ammunition from the 1950s and 1960s, all approved for sale by the highest leaders.
At the same time, they finalized the business structure.
All trade between the two worlds would be handled exclusively by Jason's company, Fusion Trading.
The National Committee would invest 100 billion yuan to acquire 49% of Fusion Trading.
Jason, representing his future Westerosi kingdom, would hold the controlling 51% stake.
Getting 49% of this company for 100 billion was an incredible deal for the country. This company would have a total monopoly on all trade between two worlds.
Its future annual transaction volume could easily reach trillions of yuan. The potential profit was staggering.
But the company's profits weren't what the country valued most.
The real prize was access to Westeros's cheap raw materials and its consumer market of 200 to 300 million people.
This access would drive the rapid development of the domestic economy and enhance national strength. That was the real goal.
With cheap raw materials and market support from Westeros, it wouldn't matter what the US did with its trade frictions.
Even in an extreme case—losing the entire European and American markets—it would be fine. They could simply pivot to their domestic market and the new, untapped market in Westeros.
Just thinking about monopolizing the resources of an entire world made all the leaders and experts tremble with excitement.
Iron ore, oil, grain... these were strategic resources that were often restricted by Western countries.
If they could develop Westeros properly, these problems would disappear.
They could even produce so much iron ore, grain, and oil in Westeros that they could dump it back into the modern world at incredibly low prices. The thought was thrilling.
Jason only had a rough idea of how to do all this. He was, after all, just an undergraduate who had only graduated a few years ago.
He was self-aware enough to know he was out of his depth.
His job was simple: follow the advisory group's guidance, control Westeros as fast as possible, and let the business begin.
This exciting plan was collectively approved.
Jason and the expert advisory group were immediately dispatched to City to begin implementation.
Why not the capital?
The capital had too many people and too many foreign eyes. The work of keeping this secret would be extremely difficult.
Ziang City, as a provincial capital, was also a national transportation hub. Its highly developed railway system was perfect for transporting resources from another world to all parts of the country, quickly and efficiently.
When Jason returned to Ziang City, Lin Xiaohan hugged him excitedly. The two spent time just talking and comforting each other after the separation.
The advisory group immediately contacted the chiefs of the central military theater to ensure the total security of the new trade base.
To hide their activities from the public, the group took over an entire old community near the City Railway Station.
This community had been built in the 1960s. Back then, air-raid shelters were being dug all over the country.
Beneath this community was a huge underground space—a base covering more than 300,000 square meters.
This base had belonged to the military, but it was now officially assigned to Fusion Trading.
The advisory group immediately began work.
First, they started converting 90% of the space into a massive warehouse.
Second, they began extending the main railway line directly into the underground base.
Even though 300,000 square meters seemed huge, they were already making plans to expand it. They knew it wouldn't be enough, not for the amount of iron ore, coal, and grain they planned to move.
Jason didn't have to worry about any of this. His only job was to handle the transfer of resources from Westeros.
The base was still being renovated, but that didn't stop the military.
After a quick deliberation, the military representatives in the advisory group, led by a General, couldn't wait. They enthusiastically brought in the old guns from warehouses all over the region to sell to Jason.
They knew Jason's company, Fusion Trading, had just received 100 billion in cash.
To General commander, Jason was the perfect customer.
The general couldn't wait to unload all the old equipment that had been cluttering his warehouses for decades.
He explained that, besides what had already been destroyed or sold, there were still millions of old rifles piled up.
These old guns and bullets just sat there, taking up space and wasting money on maintenance. Even destroying them cost money.
Selling them to Jason was the perfect solution. It was waste reuse, and they'd even make a profit.
"Mr. Liu, come here," General commander said, rubbing his hands together. "Don't worry that these guns have been in our warehouse for decades. They're still very well preserved. All the bad ones have already been centrally destroyed by us."
