Master Above, Sea Below

“Find a separate environment for the two kings and serve some refreshments.”

Wilbur said directly to Marine.

“Yes! Colonel!”

A Marine saluted and said to David and Aquitaine, “Please follow me.”

Although the escort mission is different, Wilbur is a Marine of G-3 and is the direct superior of these Marines. There is no so-called ‘reverse host’ when issuing orders.

David gave Aquitaine a grateful look and nodded.

Good brother! You know what I want.

Wilbur smiled at this.

David took Aquitaine’s hand and said gently, “Come, I’m a few years older than you and I call you brother. It takes a lot of courage to be the new king. You are brave to bear the responsibility of the new king. Before you became a king, I often heard about your bravery. You are so brave, let’s have a good talk.”

Without waiting for Aquitaine to respond, he held his hand and followed Marine into one of the fortresses and found a quiet conference room.

“Please sit down, brother.”

He did not treat himself as a guest and sat down first. Then, he politely cupped his hands and invited Aquitaine to the opposite side.

He was his master’s knight, so he was naturally not an outsider. When facing a real ‘outsider’, he had to be polite.

Aquitaine was not used to it and said nervously, “You are too, too polite. King David, just call me Aquitaine.”

David shook his head. “No, I must call you Brother Wang. To be honest, when I first saw you, I felt a sense of familiarity.”

At this moment, a few Marines happened to serve a few refreshments. David said to them, “Please get some wine. I want a wine cup, not a wine glass.”

“Okay, King David.”

Marine nodded and soon brought a few bottles of sake and two red wine glasses.

David picked up the white porcelain bottle and poured a glass for Aquitaine and another for himself. He said to Aquitaine, “If you don’t mind, why don’t we become sworn brothers?”

“Ah?” Aquitaine was a little dizzy.

What’s wrong with this person? He looked indifferent just now, but now he is so enthusiastic that he is a little confused.

But soon, he realized.

This is a godsend opportunity!

If they can get in touch with the king of this big country, it will ease their domestic shortcomings.

“I, I… Brother Wang, I am willing!” Aquitaine hurriedly nodded.

David smiled and carefully took out a… cigar.

If Aquitaine was not mistaken, that cigar should be the one that Vice Admiral Kim Jong-un often smoked.

“Come, brother Wang, please come over,” David said, holding a cigar.

Aquitaine stood up in confusion and saw David put the cigar on a higher place and stood it up. Then he sat cross-legged on the ground and picked up the wine glass with a solemn expression.

Aquitaine followed suit and sat opposite him, holding the wine cup.

“My lord…”

With that, David looked at Aquitaine.

Aquitaine came back to his senses and suddenly understood at this moment. He also read: “My lord.”

Wait, who is Master…

“The sea is below.”

Aquitaine collected his thoughts and said: “The sea is below.”

“Today, I, Pansa David, with, with…” David looked at Aquitaine and was speechless.

What was this person’s surname again?

Aquitaine directly solved David’s doubts. “Today, I, Corf Aquitaine, am with…”

“I regret that I didn’t meet Korf Akitan earlier, so we became sworn brothers here. From now on, we are brothers!”

David handed the wine cup forward and Aquitaine followed suit. He handed the wine cup forward and clinked it against David’s.

Both sides drank the wine in the wine cup and stood up. Aquitaine was touched and said, “Brother Wang!”

He opened his hand and wanted to hold it tightly.

David ignored him and walked over. He carefully took back the cigar and put it in his arms.

After doing all this, he turned around and grabbed Cove’s hand. His face changed from solemn to excited. “Brother!”

No, is this room so long?

Aquitaine’s mouth twitched and he shouted again, “Brother Wang!”

“Brother Wang!”

“Brother Wang!”

“Second Brother!”

“Big Brother! Save me!”

After a few shouts, Aquitaine could not hold it in anymore and said, “Big Brother, the Korff Kingdom is too bitter. They have just experienced a pirate riot and their strength is much weaker than before. If they can’t find a way out, then the people of the Korff Kingdom can only be pirates again.”

“When Father was still here, they didn’t want to be pirates. Even if they want to be pirates now, they won’t be the opponents of those pirates who go out to sea. But if they don’t become pirates, with the current situation in the country, even survival will be a problem.”

“That’s great!” David said excitedly.

“Huh?”

“No, I mean, it’s good that I have a way to solve your dilemma and you have a way to solve mine.”

David pulled Aquitaine back into his chair and said, “Look, you are worried about the life of your country, but I know about the Kingdom of Corfu. It is famous for its exquisite stone and bomb rock. Dressrosa has been building recently and needs a lot of stone. In order to ensure the safety of the route and territory, we also want bomb rock.”

“Really?!” Aquitaine’s eyes widened with joy.

It was not because of the Bomb Rock. That thing could be sold anywhere, but the output was not much. The main problem was the stone.

In the past, there were merchant ships that came to buy stone and bomb rocks, but the level of trade was only at the level where the Kingdom of Corfu was alive and could be fed with labor. There was never such a large-scale mining.

After all, stones are everywhere.

But Dressrosa is different. If it is a large-scale mining, then Aquitaine can sell the stone in large quantities and make Korff rich.

“There is nothing wrong with the stone, or rather, Big Brother, you are willing to accept my stone, which is already very helpful, but the bomb rock…”

Aquitaine lowered his head and said with some guilt, “The production of bomb rock is not high, especially now, Korff lacks a lot of people, and I promised to give the World Government 30% of the mineral vein. I can’t provide the bomb rock that big brother wants. How about… you buy a little stone from me and I will build a little bomb rock for you.”

“Thirty percent? To the World Government?”

David frowned. “This is your condition for joining the World Government? Who suggested it?”

“I mentioned it myself…” Aquitaine said.

“Euther card, Eudoxia!” David said directly: “There’s no need for that. You can go back on your word. World Government will only beg us to join them. You just need to pay the Sky Gold. You don’t need anything else. If you want to blow up the rock, they will pay for it.”

“But in that case…”

Aquitaine opened his mouth and said, “After all, I am a small country. What if the World Government reneges?”

“I’m here!”

David said loudly: “It doesn’t matter even if the World Government goes back on its word. I have an ideal, with Dressrosa as the center, to create a trade union called ‘Debon’. I now officially invite your Kingdom of Corf to join and become the first union to join Debon. You are responsible for producing and rationing, and I am responsible for supplying you with the model of Dressrosa. Together, we will create a strong world in the region!”

He opened his hand. “In this way, our people will be rich together and our lives will become the same standard, just like the sea will not dry up and our people will never be lost because we are one!”

“Can, can it be like this?” Aquitaine was stunned.

“Of course!”

David nodded heavily and stretched out his hand to Aquitaine and said, “World Government and so on, there is no need to agree to his conditions. He will definitely make you a member country, and the rest will depend on us to create a peaceful place!”
