"Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh, the surplus food from many cities in Holy Egypt is already on its way to be dispatched."
"[Cocoa Bean] I, your old minister, have followed your instructions and ordered Remheb to direct and supervise the technicians in the production."
"However, I am still a little worried. After all, the 'cocoa drink' made by you under the command of Remheb must be the best."
"I am worried that if Remheb cannot produce the authentic flavor of 'Cocoa Drink', your plan may be ruined."
Lin Ke listened to Kamul's words and just waved his hand gently.
“The steps of [Cocoa Beans] are nothing more than four points.”
“Fermented, dried, roasted and shelled.”
"He had already carefully noted down the specific production details. This was not a complicated or obscure task for him."
"Just relax and let him do it."
After hearing what Lin Ke said, Kamul just bowed again.
"Yes, Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh."
"But why did you choose to hold the 'market meeting' at this time?"
"Could it be that this has something to do with those three Nubian trade officials?"
When Lin Ke heard Kamul's words, he just lowered his head slightly and did not respond immediately.
Holding a "market conference" was one of Lin Ke's previous plans.
The reason why Lin Ke held this "market conference" was to promote the rare product "cocoa drink" in one fell swoop.
For the people of Holy Egypt and some foreign tribesmen, this is something they do not understand at all and have no chance to come into contact with.
Especially for the various civilizations on this continent, cocoa beans are a very rare resource.
In the civilization panel, [Cocoa Beans] have the effect of increasing "happiness".
In Civilization VI, "happiness" is one of the important factors that enable the kingdom to expand rapidly.
Because it directly affects population growth, city output, loyalty and rebellion risk.
Insufficient "happiness" will lead to inefficient cities, hindered expansion, and even the division of the kingdom.
And this luxury resource is one of the key guarantees.
Especially now, in the early stages of Holy Egypt's "Golden Age" of expansion, prioritizing the acquisition and allocation of these resources will ensure the stable development of Holy Egypt.
Not only that, it can also provide four points of "Happiness 0" to Holy Egypt and distribute them to up to four cities.
That is to say, increase the happiness of the four cities with the lowest "happiness" in Holy Egypt.
This will help increase the urban population growth rate and various types of output.
Not only that, [Cocoa Beans], as a luxury resource, can also be exchanged with other civilizations through trade routes in the civilization panel.
That is, in exchange for gold coins, diplomatic favor or other resources.
You can also sell it directly to other civilizations to obtain additional income.
Of course, Lin Ke can accomplish all of these directly through the civilization panel, but he doesn't want to do so now.
Because he can also make "cocoa drink" known to people through the "market meeting".
In this way, Lin Ke, as the only kingdom that supplies [cocoa beans], can take the lead in this matter.
After all, on this continent, only Holy Egypt can supply enough [cocoa beans] to various kingdoms.
Even when Lin Ke uses [cocoa beans] to trade with other civilizations, he can make more premiums, that is, increase prices.
Holy Egypt can become an oligarch supplying [cocoa beans]!
Of course, this is only one reason.
In addition to promoting [cocoa beans], Lin Ke also held this "market conference" for another reason, which was to let people know how prosperous Holy Egypt is today.
This will allow more foreigners to come to Cairo and see with their own eyes the splendor of Holy Egypt today.
Moreover, Lin Ke’s newly built “wonder” will be completed in one day.
In other words, people who come to participate in the "fair" at that time will be able to visit a new "miracle".
These are the two main reasons why Lin Ke held the "Market Conference".
Now, three Nubian trade officials came to Holy Egypt to discuss the purchase of food and fodder from Holy Egypt.
But Lin Ke was not satisfied with their offer, so Lin Ke held a "luxurious banquet" for them and advanced the opening time of the "market conference".
He was very sure that after the Nubian trade officials discovered that Holy Egypt had abundant food and even cocoa beans were being mass-produced, they would definitely give him a satisfactory price.
Although the other party has its own unique trade routes and many trading partners, you must know that today, Holy Egypt is the only supplier.
In other words, Lin Ke was able to use the "market meeting" to inform all civilizations of the news that Holy Egypt had abundant food and [cocoa beans].
By then, Holy Egypt will no longer need Nubia to help Holy Egypt with sales as it did before.
Of course, although this is the plan, Lin Ke’s ultimate goal is still to let Nubia sell these products for him.
because......
In this way, Lin Ke doesn't have to do everything himself!
Otherwise, trading and cooperating with numerous civilizations would also be a time-consuming and laborious endeavor.
After this incident, Nubia will be able to recognize its own position and the situation like yesterday will not happen again.
That is to say, giving Saint Egypt an offer that did not meet Lin Ke's expectations.
Lin Ke knew very well that for those shrewd "merchants" in Nubia who were good at trade, only if they realized the current status of Holy Egypt would they be willing to give up more interests.
Lin Ke was searching for information in the civilization panel at this time, and he soon discovered that the number of people flowing into Cairo City was increasing.
So, he just answered the question that Kamul had just asked: "You are right, there is indeed a certain connection with the three trade officials."
"However, we have only moved the time of the 'market fair' forward a little bit."
But when Kamul heard Lin Ke's words, his eyes immediately lit up.
"Yes! I understand! Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh!"
"This 'market conference' will surely make Holy Egypt famous again!"
"Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh! Even the gods would bow down to your wisdom!"
"If I could only have one ten-thousandth of your wisdom, it would be enough for my life!"
Lin Ke just waved his hand. He did not feel relieved or happy because of Kamul's words.
Because Lin Ke knew very well that if anything went wrong with this "market conference", his plan would fail.
It's like someone is sabotaging something.
So, he just looked at Kamul seriously and said, "This 'market conference' is of great significance to Holy Egypt."
"You must remember this, Kamul."
And Kamul bowed down again.
"Don't worry! Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh!"
"If something goes wrong, I will go to the underworld and immerse my soul in the Styx."
"No reincarnation for eternity."
