The fiery sun hangs high in the sky, and the breeze from the sea is constantly blowing, and the residents of Paris do not feel a trace of coolness. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

And in the hottest season of the year in the Endless Sea, the fleet of the Rosen Chamber of Commerce has also successfully arrived at the Drifting Island that carries Paris.

Chopin naturally attached great importance to the first trade in this foreign world, and although war was an eternal theme, continuous development was the strong backing that supported the former.

And according to his request, the welcome banquet was held in the main dining room of the consul's residence, and knowing the importance of His Majesty to this banquet, the officials in charge naturally did their best, and the whole banquet hall was decorated with various ornaments made of gold and ivory, which in a certain way could be regarded as a demonstration of the strength of the people to be negotiated, so that they could clearly feel the majesty and heritage of the French Empire.

I have to say that Chopin's move was quite effective.

As the main person in charge of this trade, Eti was impressed by the solemnity and solemnity of this city as early as when he entered the city of Paris, which is also full of historical and cultural precipitation.

He couldn't imagine that such a small drifting island in front of him had not even completed the most basic island fusion, but on top of this, there was such a fascinating city, which was the base of the Chamber of Commerce, and the magnificent city known as the "city that never sleeps" could only barely be compared to it.

In this way, he also became more interested in the lord he was about to meet.

It was only after entering the banquet hall that Eti realized that he still underestimated the other party, in the golden banquet hall, all kinds of dazzling brilliance were wantonly dotted on the surrounding walls, and the magnificence in front of him was somewhat beyond his expectations, so that he even thought that some king on the West Sea was entertaining him.

If these have given Eti a great shock, then the various delicacies randomly placed on the long tables in the banquet hall have completely destroyed his original psychological defense.

Roasted suckling pig with soft cheese, golden steak with tender tenderness, white bread baked with finely ground wheat, and a variety of colourful pastries are all painstakingly created by chefs and pastry chefs, as well as the finest wines, hidden in the basement of the consul's residence, which only the royal family is entitled to.

Putting a delicate piece of snack decorated with various colored markings into his mouth, and feeling the sweet and soft taste spread in his mouth, Eti couldn't help but sigh heartily.

Finally breaking free from the temptation of these delicacies in front of him, Eti raised his head slightly, looking at the appearance of his subordinates who were almost gobbling up at this time, he couldn't help frowning, and just wanted to open his mouth to reprimand, but when he thought of his rude behavior similar to them before, he also shook his head with a wry smile.

This is not to blame them, after more than ten years in the West Sea, Eti thinks that he has eaten a lot of delicacies, that is, the banquets of the kings of those principalities, and he has participated in them more than once, but compared to the temptations in front of him that people can't help but fall into, it is not worth mentioning at all.

"How? Doesn't it taste bad? ”

Chopin held the delicate crystal cup and walked slowly towards the other party.

The amber liquid swayed in it, exuding a dazzling and psychedelic beauty.

It's not just good, it's unbeatable!

Eti couldn't help but let out such a heartfelt sigh in his heart, but as the main person in charge of the negotiations with the other party, he knew very well that he could not act too intoxicated.

"Well, you can ...... Not bad...... Nice......"

Eti hesitated for a long time, and didn't know what words to use to describe these delicious foods in front of him, describing it too well would inevitably mean that it would increase the morale of others and destroy his own prestige, but if the description was too bad, it would be too disobedient, right?

"Cheers!"

Xu sensed the embarrassment of the other party, but Chopin took the initiative to raise the crystal cup in his hand and said with a smile.

"Cheers? Your Majesty, what does this mean? ”

Facing the other party's raised wine glass, Eti looked dazed.

When the Minister of War Kit on the side saw this scene, he couldn't help but pat his forehead, and his Majesty didn't know what nonsense he was talking about.

"Well, a toast means we clink glasses to each other and show respect for each other."

Looking at the other party's somewhat dazed expression, Chopin was also a little embarrassed, so he reacted to the environment he was in, and then explained it to the other party in a nonsense manner.

"In that case, then Your Majesty, cheers!"

The delicate crystal cups collided together with a crisp sound.

And when the sweet, evocative fragrance spread in her mouth, Eti felt as if she had fallen completely.

*********

There was no doubt that the banquet was a success, and although both Chopin and Eti had drunk some fine wine the previous night, the two sides met in their offices the next morning.

"Hear Tina, you want to mine that red gold mine on Viscount Riel's Drifting Island?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, we have already negotiated with each other, Tina and Wen Lan, it is the reward we gave each other in advance, but I didn't expect you to capture the other party's territory so quickly."

In the face of the other party's inquiry, Eti also said in a somewhat helpless tone.

"This red gold mine is very important to our Lawson Chamber of Commerce, I hope Your Majesty can cut your love."

"It's natural, but it's ...... reward"

Chopin blinked, his tone deliberately prolonged.

"2,000 gold coins, I wonder what you think?"

2,000 gold coins, which is definitely not a small amount in the Endless Sea, is more than enough to buy such a red gold mine, although I don't understand why the other party cares so much about such a mine, but Chopin doesn't bother to ask.

For him, it was imperative to set up a gunpowder workshop in Paris, otherwise if there were a few more battles, he was afraid that all the shells that came with the system would be exhausted.

And the artillery, which is not fired by shells, is just like a paper tiger, without the slightest combat effectiveness.

"Right? Bitina has already told you before, I am in desperate need of "iron pulp" now, and you can help exchange all the 2,000 gold coins into "iron pulp" and send them here, do you think this is feasible? ”

"Naturally, within a month, these "iron slurry" will be sent to you, but Your Majesty, when will we be able to carry out mining operations? ”

"Anytime."

Looking at the other party's slightly hurried look, Chopin also responded with a smile.
