Nan Tong noticed that Pachakutek was trembling slightly. He had no choice but to tell Lin Ke that he would kick him out if he dared to disrespect him.
Of course, this also means that the relationship between Holy Egypt and the Inca will change from neutral to hostile.
But right now, everything seems to be set in stone. After all, Lin Ke can't summon a supreme god or anything like that to force the other party to submit.
Just as Lin Ke was bracing himself for the other party's anger and preparing for a verbal altercation, he suddenly noticed a change in the information displayed on the civilization panel.
"We have declared ourselves allies!"
When Lin Ke saw this message, he stared at the information on the civilization panel several times.
What ally? Which ally?
Then he looked at the area between Holy Egypt and the Inca, which had originally been marked as "neutral".
The area that originally displayed "Neutral" has now been changed to "Allied".
The situation is now crystal clear.
But why would Pachakutk react this way?
So, Lin Ke slowly raised her head again.
He saw Pachakutek suddenly turn around and walk up to him in two or three steps.
Nan Tong instinctively tensed up, ready to cast a spell and yell at the other person to get out.
However, what happened next was completely beyond Nan Tong's expectations.
Pachakutek grabbed Link's arm with such force that he could crush an ordinary person's bones.
Nan Tong immediately stepped forward and cast a spell to protect her. Just as the vulgar words were about to come out of Nan Tong's mouth, Lin Ke quickly raised her arm.
Because at this moment, Lin Ke finally saw Pachakutek's expression clearly.
Pachakutek's eyes, which had been as cold as iron just moments before, were now brimming with tears.
"Holy Pharaoh!"
Pachakutk's voice was not one of anger, but of profound gratitude.
"Do you...do you know what you're doing?"
"This price, I simply..."
"I simply can't imagine it!"
"Are you really willing to sell us the grain at this price?"
Lin Ke was slightly taken aback when she heard this.
It turns out that Pachakutk thought the price was too cheap!
Of course, this is not "cheap" in the literal sense. Pachakutek's reaction made Link realize immediately that the price he had calculated earlier was actually very reasonable.
Pachakutek choked up, and his strong, powerful hands were trembling slightly.
"Ten gold coins for two tons! Two tons! Do you know what that means?"
"In our Inca community, ten gold coins can't even buy five hundred pounds of corn!"
"And you're willing to exchange it for two thousand catties of top-quality wheat?"
"Oh! Holy Pharaoh! My brother!"
Lin Ke was stunned.
He never imagined that food would be so expensive in the distant Inca region.
Moreover, Lin Ke then realized that what Pachakutek had said earlier about using a large amount of gold from the national treasury to purchase grain actually had another meaning.
It wasn't that the Inca treasury was too small to store too much gold; the reality was that their food prices had reached a level that ordinary people simply couldn't afford!
"King Pachakutek, you can accept this price, right?"
"Judging from your expression just now, I thought you weren't very satisfied with the price."
Pachakutek listened to Lin Ke's words and just shook his head a few times.
"No! No! I couldn't believe it when I heard that number. I thought you were insulting me!"
"Oh! Ten gold coins! Two tons of grain!"
"My people, my people!"
"finally......"
Tears welled up in Pachakutk's eyes and streamed down his resolute face.
His sobbing even startled Nan Tong for a moment, after all, Nan Tong had never seen any leader of a civilization cry so loudly.
It was as if the person standing before them was not a leader of civilization at all, but merely a middle-aged man whose desires had been fulfilled.
"Please forgive my rudeness, Holy Pharaoh!"
"For a fleeting moment, I actually suspected you of having malicious intent!"
"I'm so sorry, please forgive me again!"
As Pachakutek spoke, he bowed deeply, then raised his head and tightly grasped Lin Ke's hands.
“This is an immense act of kindness! Holy Pharaoh, you are not just selling grain, you are saving my country!”
"You are saving my people!"
"Oh! Ten gold coins! Ten gold coins! How generous, Holy Pharaoh!"
He even suddenly knelt down in front of Lin Ke, and the two servants who had come here with Pachakutk, who had appeared at some point, also knelt down.
Upon seeing this, everyone in Holy Egypt froze, even Nan Tong, who had just been about to kick them out, was at a loss for what to do.
"this......"
Just as Nan Tong was stunned, Lin Ke stepped forward and helped her up.
"King Pachakutek, what are you doing!"
"Please get up!"
Despite Lin Ke's attempts to help him, Pachakutk repeatedly refused.
"Holy Pharaoh, you don't understand!"
"I...I can't express my feelings at this moment in any words!"
"The food from Holy Egypt will help tens of millions of my Inca people escape from fire and water!"
"You saved not only me and my people, but also the Inca civilization!"
Please accept our kneeling worship!
As soon as Pachakutek finished speaking, his attendants behind him also spoke up.
"Please accept our worship, Holy Pharaoh!"
"Waaaaaah!"
Hearing the crying, Lin Ke looked closely and saw that the two servants behind Pachakutek had tears and snot streaming down their faces.
“King Pachakutek, what I have given you is merely a reasonable price; there is no need for such a grand gesture!”
"You should know very well that I gave you this reasonable quote after taking all factors into consideration."
"I am truly unworthy of your kindness, please get up quickly!"
But no matter how much Lin Ke tried to persuade him, Pachakutek remained in that position, not moving an inch.
"King Pachakutek! If you don't get up soon, you're disrespecting your brother!"
After hearing this, Pachakutek nodded slightly and sat back down in his seat.
The people of Holy Egypt only then came to their senses, and Pachakutek, of course, also noticed the strange looks from the other Holy Egyptians.
“We apologize, Holy Pharaoh, we were rude just now and startled the Holy Egyptians.”
"There's a reason we're so excited."
“Holy Pharaoh, brother.”
