Struggle to build a country in the world of pirates

Constance explored less islands, so he was faster than the other two groups. He was stationed on Tiexi Island, waiting for the arrival of the other two. Seven days later, Polly Jane, the Minister of Rites, arrived at Tiexi Island; ten days later, Eastern Governor Chapman Giles also arrived at Tiexi Island.

Giles said with a smile: "Sorry, I wasted some time on the road and came a little late."

Constance: "Look at Governor Dong, with a smile on his face. Did you find something good?", "It is indeed a good thing." Governor Giles took out a small wooden box and opened it. There was a banana-like fruit inside. They are larger than ordinary bananas, and the patterns on them are also very special.

Constance and Jane looked at it curiously, "Is this the legendary Devil Fruit!!!"

Giles smiled and nodded. When Giles was exploring an uninhabited island, he discovered that it was just an ordinary fruit at first. The well-informed Giles noticed the difference at a glance. After careful observation, he determined that this fruit was different. Probably a devil fruit.

Constance said happily: "This is a good thing. His Highness will definitely be happy if he knows about it." [There is a high probability that he will deal with this thing, because His Highness has said it before]

Giles also saw what he was thinking: "I have already told His Highness. His Highness said that he will keep this thing for now. I don't know what kind of power fruit it is. I will give it away as a reward."

Constance said: "Let's prepare to visit the Red Iron Kingdom now. Minister of Rites, you are the main leader. What to do is up to you."

Jane: "Let's rest here for 2 days. I have already sent people to visit the Red Iron Kingdom to inform them and inform them of the situation of the pirates being eliminated by us, so that they can receive them well. After 2 days, our large forces will Going forward, Commander Constance is still responsible for the entire fleet, and he must show momentum."

Constance said: "Don't make fun of me. The official I appointed myself does not count."

Giles: "Don't say that. His Highness has already acquiesced. It will be settled this time when we go back."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~That day, the captain of the team exploring the island was already wearing military uniforms and came to Xihi’s bar. When he came in, it was no longer as deserted as before. It was full of people. The locals are from their own army.

The team leader sat at the bar: "Uncle, do you still remember me?" The bar owner said: "You are the brother who was shipwrecked some time ago. What happened to you???"

The bar owner figured it out: "So it's you"

Team leader: "Business is good, boss. Let's have a glass of beer and the fried rice from last time. I like it very much."

Bar owner: "Wait a minute!" The boss quickly brought it up: "I really want to thank you this time. What's your name?"

Team leader: "I am the fourth child at home, so please call me Ah Si."

Bar owner: "Ah Si, what is your country like?"

Ah Si said: "Now it should be said that our country was very poor before. But only half a year ago, His Highness Lei Luo helped to deal with national affairs. Basically, there were changes every day. You may not believe it when I tell you. His Highness Lei Luo was just this year." 4 years."

Bar owner: "He's only 4 years old. He's really a genius. I must go to the island to see him if he has the chance."

Ah Si: "The Minister of Commerce of the East is also on the island this time. Didn't you buy some goods?"

Bar owner: "I came in, and I bought a lot of red wine, white wine, beer, and a lot of food. I don't have any money, but the Eastern Governor was kind enough to give it to me on credit."

Ah Si: "They are all subjects of their own country. If they are in trouble, they will help."

Bar owner: "What are you going to do with those pirates?"

Ah Si: "Most of them were transported back to the country and worked as coolies. Some young people who had not committed any crime and were forced to become pirates were sent back to the village. It is said that there are many young people in this village who were forced to become pirates. "

Bar owner: "Pirates also need blood."

Ah Si: "As for the bandit leader, there is a high probability that he will be sent to the navy in exchange for a bounty."

~~~~~~Two days later~~~~~~ Constance led the returning fleet, reorganized it, and sailed toward the Red Iron Country in a mighty way.

The king of the Red Iron Kingdom had been waiting at the harbor early, with two lines of troops lined up to greet him.

In the distance, a large ship gradually approached, followed by four medium-sized ships, and further behind, there were more than a dozen small sailing boats.

During the journey, they always maintained a unified formation. The old king was surprised and sighed: "We can't even defeat a pirate ship, so how can we go against such a country? Let's leave it to fate." 】

Minister of Rites—Polly Jane

Minister for Commerce and Eastern Affairs Chapman Giles

Commander-in-Chief of the Eastern Navy (acting) - William Constance

The three of them disembarked first and saluted and introduced themselves to the Red Iron King. The Red Iron King returned the salute and thanked the commander of the Eastern Navy, William Constance, for eliminating the pirates.

King Chitie said to everyone: "The little king has set up a banquet for you in the palace. Please come and enjoy the banquet."

Constance and others, led by 30 followers, went to the palace together. The Red Iron Palace is built on the mountainside. It looks very grand and large in area, but the decoration inside is very simple.

Everyone came to the main hall and took their seats. King Hematite raised his wine glass and said, "Welcome the distinguished guests from the Kingdom of Hanas, and thank Commander Constance again for eradicating pirates and solving our country's crisis."

Everyone raised their glasses and drank. Polly Jane, the Minister of Etiquette, stood up and said to King Hematie: "Thank you King for your hospitality. Our King, this time I am sent as an envoy to your country. In order to express the friendship between the two countries, I have specially prepared Gift, this is a treasure of jewelry specially selected by His Highness Lei Luo."

Polly Jane opened the jewelry box. Inside was a set of sapphire jewelry. It was crystal clear and beautifully carved. It was extraordinary at first glance.

King Red Iron said, "This gift is too precious."

Polly Jane: "This is a bit of His Highness's wishes, please accept it."

King Red Iron: "Originally, your country helped us eliminate the pirates. I should express my gratitude, but our country really has nothing to offer, so I still accept your country's gift. I really deserve it."

Polly Jane: "King, don't say that. Promoting trade between the two countries is also one of the main purposes of our coming here."

King Hematite: "To be honest, although our country's landforms are large, most of them are iron ore mines. Mining is difficult, the area for growing food is small, and animal husbandry is underdeveloped. A large part of the rough stones mined cannot be sold at a high price. We don’t have enough technology and equipment to refine rough stones, so we have always been poor.”

Minister of Commerce - Eastern Minister Chapman Giles: "Actually, our country has always been dominated by minerals. Technology and equipment can be helpful, but?" He didn't say anything.

King Hematie thought for a while and said: "I am willing to jointly develop with your country and become a tributary of the Kingdom of Hanas, but I have a condition."

Polly Jane was overjoyed and said, "Your Majesty, please speak."

King Chitie: "I have a 17-year-old daughter who wants to marry Prince Lei Luo of your country."
