“Hahahahahaha…”
“No, no…”
Kamul had a very harmonious conversation with the three Nubian trade officials, and the atmosphere in the room was relaxed and pleasant.
After finalizing the specific transaction matters, the tall trade officer stood up first, with the smile on his face almost never disappearing.
"Mr. Prime Minister, this negotiation went very smoothly! I wish us a happy cooperation! May Nubia and Holy Egypt enjoy long-term mutual benefits!"
The short trade officer nodded in agreement: "Yes, your country's sincerity and foresight are admirable. This trip is worthwhile! Hahahaha..."
The thin trade officer also smiled and said, "Today's agreement will surely benefit both countries."
Kamul also smiled slightly and bowed gently: "It is naturally an honor for us Holy Egypt to be able to trade with Nubia."
"Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh is pleased to see allies prosper together. This is the wish of our Holy Egypt."
Then he turned to look at Remheb and ordered, "Remheb, go get the prepared things."
Remheb nodded and immediately turned and left.
After a while, footsteps were heard outside the house.
The three Nubian trade officers turned around and saw more than a dozen Holy Egyptian guards walking in.
Moreover, each person was holding a wooden box in his hand. The edge of the box was carved with simple lotus patterns, which looked very delicate.
It's like a treasure chest!
They placed the box on the ground and slowly opened it.
The tall trade officer looked inside and saw bundles of linen in a box. The texture was very fine and even had a faint luster.
In another box were clay jars filled with oatmeal and dried figs and many other things they could not name.
Inside, there are mostly things with characteristics of Holy Egypt, which are equivalent to "samples" so that the King of Nubia can better understand the things of Holy Egypt.
The short trade officer couldn't help but reach out and pick up a piece of bread.
He shook his head. "His Majesty will surely like this."
"Thank you very much, Prime Minister."
The skinny trade officer stared at the grain in the pottery jar and praised: "The grains here are full. If your granary is full, you can trade with us."
Seeing that they were satisfied, Kamul nodded slightly.
Then, he took out three gems from a small box beside him and handed them to the three people: "These are the gems of Holy Egypt. You three have come from afar, so we can only use these to express our gratitude."
"Please don't be offended."
The gem shone with a faint blue light in the sunlight.
Obviously, they are worth a lot of money.
The tall trade officer took the gem, his eyes lit up, and he said repeatedly: "Thank you, Prime Minister, for your generous gift!"
The short and thin trade officer also hurriedly bowed to express his gratitude, with surprise on his face.
Kamul waved his hand and said kindly: "No need to be polite."
"In addition, a transport vehicle has been prepared outside the house, carrying more goods. It is a gift from His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh to the King of your country."
Upon hearing this, the three trade officials stood up and bowed deeply.
The tall man showed gratitude on his face: "Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh and the Prime Minister's generosity, we will always remember it in our hearts!"
"I will report this to my king."
The short man took over the conversation: "We in Nubia will never forget your country's friendship."
The skinny trade officer smiled and said, "This gift from Holy Egypt is generous. My king will surely be pleased. I hope the friendship between our two countries can become even deeper! More exchanges!"
Just then, Remheb came in with three small ceramic cups in his hands.
Each ceramic cup is only three fingers wide and is filled with dark brown liquid that exudes a rich aroma.
The three trade officers felt that the aroma was unfamiliar, but they were also very interested.
"Mr. Prime Minister, what is this?"
Kamul handed the ceramic cup to the three trade officials and said, "Try this, everyone."
The tall trade officer took the cup and took a closer sniff: "What kind of water is this? It smells good, but the color is a bit strange."
The short trade officer also picked up the cup and asked in confusion, "It feels like something is burnt, and it tastes a bit sweet?"
Another one squinted his eyes and said: "It doesn't look like water, it looks more like medicine."
Kamul smiled and said, "This is a drink, but the quantity is scarce. Please don't be disgusted and try a sip."
The three of them looked at each other, and with some curiosity, they took a sip cautiously.
Their eyes suddenly widened and they exclaimed in surprise: "What's that smell? Bitter yet fragrant!"
"This thing is so weird, bitter and sweet, but also has a mellow fragrance, what on earth is this?!"
The skinny trade officer put down his cup and asked anxiously, "Prime Minister, what is this made of? Your country actually has such a treasure?"
"Why didn't you mention that just now?"
Seeing their reaction, Kamul was not in a hurry and said slowly: "This is cocoa drink. His Majesty the Saint Pharaoh intends to sell it to other kingdoms in the future. What do you think?"
The tall trade officer was stunned for a moment and asked, "Coco? I've never heard of it. What is this?"
"It comes from cocoa beans, which come from the rainforest, and the yield is very low," Kamul explained.
"His Majesty the Saint Pharaoh is currently developing it and intends to promote and sell it."
When the short trade officer heard this, he said hurriedly: "Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh is really far-sighted!"
"Mr. Prime Minister, if we sell this, we will make a lot of money! Can we take some back with us?"
The skinny trade officer also nodded: "Yes, this taste is so special!"
"No one has ever drunk Nubiak. If we could bring it back, it would definitely be sold out!"
