"Find a private setting for the two kings and serve them some tea and refreshments."
Wilbur spoke directly to the navy officer standing beside him.
"Yes, Colonel!"
A navy officer saluted and said to David and Aquitaine, "Please follow me."
Although the escort missions are different, Wilbur is a Navy officer in G-3, and is the direct superior of these Navy officers. There is no such thing as 'turning the tables' when he issues orders.
David gave Wilbur a grateful look and nodded.
Good bro! You know what I want.
Wilbur responded with a smile.
David took Aquitaine's hand and said softly, as if to a lover, "Come, I'm a few years older than you, so I'll call you brother. It takes a lot of courage to be a new king. The fact that you can take on the responsibilities of a new king shows that you are very brave. Before you became king, I often heard about your heroic deeds. You are so brave, let's go and have a good talk."
Without waiting for Aquitaine's reaction, he grabbed his hand and followed the navy into one of the fortresses, where they found a quiet meeting room.
"Please sit down, my brother."
He didn't treat himself as a guest, but sat down first, and then very politely cupped his hands to invite Aquitaine to sit opposite him.
He was the master's knight, so naturally he wasn't an outsider. When facing a true 'outsider,' politeness was essential.
Aquitaine felt uncomfortable and said awkwardly, "You're too kind, King David. Just call me Aquitaine."
David shook his head: "No, I must call you Brother Wang. To be honest, I felt a sense of familiarity when I first saw you."
Just then, a few sailors served some refreshments, and David said to them, "Please get me some drinks, in goblets, not glasses."
“Yes, King David.”
The navy nodded, and soon brought out several bottles of sake and two red sake cups.
David picked up the white porcelain bottle, poured a glass for Aquitaine, then poured one for himself, and said to Aquitaine, "If you don't mind, how about we become sworn brothers?"
"Huh?" Aquitaine felt a little dizzy.
What's wrong with this person? He was so indifferent just now, but now he's being so enthusiastic that it's making me a little confused.
But he quickly realized what was happening.
What a golden opportunity!
Contacting the king of this great nation would alleviate their domestic problems.
“I, I…Brother King, I am willing!” Aquitaine nodded hurriedly.
David smiled and carefully pulled a... cigar from his pocket.
If I'm not mistaken, that Aquitaine cigar is the kind that Lieutenant General Jinni often smokes.
“Come, brother, please come here,” David said, holding a cigar.
Aquitaine stood up, puzzled. He saw David place the cigar on a high spot, stand it up, then sit cross-legged on the ground, solemnly raising his wine cup.
Aquitaine followed suit, sitting down opposite him and picking up his wine cup.
"My lord..."
As he spoke, David looked at Aquitaine.
Aquitaine snapped out of his daze and suddenly understood, repeating, "My lord above."
Wait, who is the master...?
"The sea is below."
Aquitaine, and replied, "The ocean is below me."
“Today, I, Pansa David, with, with…” David looked at Aquitaine, momentarily speechless.
What was this person's last name again?
Aquitaine directly resolved David's doubts: "Today, I, Korf Aquitaine, with..."
"I felt an instant connection with Korf Aquitaine, and we became sworn brothers here. From now on, we are brothers!"
David handed his wine cup forward, and Aquitaine followed suit, handing his cup forward and clinking it against David's.
Both men drank the wine in their cups in one gulp, then stood up. Aquitaine said with emotion, "Brother!"
He opened his arms, wanting to hold him tightly.
David ignored him, walked over, and carefully put the cigar back into his pocket.
After doing all this, he turned around, grabbed Korf's hand, and his solemn expression turned to excitement, "Brother!"
No, is the interval really that long?
Aquitaine twitched the corner of his mouth, and called out again, "Brother King!"
"Brother Wang!"
"Brother Wang!"
"Second brother!"
"Big brother! Help me, big brother!"
After several shouts, Aquitaine finally couldn't hold back any longer and said, "Brother, the Kingdom of Korf is suffering too much. It just experienced a pirate uprising, and its manpower is much weaker than before. If they can't find a way to survive, then the people of the Kingdom of Korf will have no choice but to become pirates again."
"When my father was alive, they didn't become pirates. Even if they did, they wouldn't be a match for those pirates who venture out to sea. But if they didn't become pirates, given the state of the country now, even survival would be a problem."
“That’s great!” David exclaimed excitedly.
"ah?"
"No, what I mean is, the good thing is that I have a way to get you out of this predicament, and you have a way to get me out of this predicament too."
David pulled Aquitaine back into his chair and said, “You see, you’re worried about the livelihood of your country, but I know the Kingdom of Kolf well. It’s famous for its fine stone and bomb rocks. Dressrosa is currently undergoing a major construction project and needs a lot of stone. In order to ensure the safety of our shipping routes and territory, we also want the existence of bomb rocks.”
"Really?!" Aquitaine's eyes widened, his face lighting up with delight.
It's not because of the bomb rock; that stuff sells everywhere, but the production isn't high. The main problem is the availability of raw materials.
