The Onyx Kingdom is what it is today because of the king and the eldest prince, and the king and the eldest prince will not ignore them in the future.

Even if they are not given food and supplies, they will at least come back to teach them more knowledge, making their lives and their country richer and stronger, and their descendants will live happier lives.

If the king is changed and the envoys and gods no longer care about them, then they may return to a backward and closed state, allowing others to bully them at will.

Therefore, we must not be divorced from the envoys and gods, we must tightly tie them to the Agate Kingdom, and no one else will be able to be the king.

Seeing that everyone was resolute, Qiao Dajiang had no choice but to give up.

He also knew that the Japanese had set a precedent of wanting to invade the waters of Agate Island, and more countries would definitely covet it in the future.

These backward islanders alone will certainly not be able to protect these islands.

After returning to Dai Viet, he will go to the palace to discuss the alliance with the Emperor of Dai Viet.

Dai Viet provides food and supplies to the Agate Nation. The Agate Nation guards this sea checkpoint for Dai Viet and prevents other countries from sending large numbers of troops to Dai Viet through the waters of Agate Island. If they cannot stop it, they will send news to Dai Viet first to let them take precautions. .

In addition, the Agate Kingdom can also exchange agate, pearls and other treasures for food, ironware and other supplies from Dai Viet.

I believe the emperor will not refuse to agree to such a win-win cooperation.

Everyone got on the boat, and under the eager eyes of the islanders, they set sail and slowly sailed away from Agate Island, heading towards the country of Dai Viet.

Qiao Ran did not go back to her cabin. Instead, she briefly spoke to Mo Beihan and then went to the cabin next door to visit her father.

After being away for several years, Qiao Ran was about to go home to reunite with his relatives. Qiao Ran knew that her father must be very excited at this moment.

Sure enough, as soon as she entered the cabin, she saw her father sitting on the edge of the bed, carefully holding the portrait of her mother that she had drawn in his hand, looking at it with a smile on his face and gentle eyes.

"Dad, let me see if there is anything you are not used to. If there is anything else you need to add, just tell me and I will try my best to solve it for you."

Qiao Ran walked over gently.

When Qiao Dajiang heard his daughter's voice, he looked away from the portrait and shook his head:

"Dad is not used to anything. After all, after being away from home for so many years and wandering outside for so many years, there is nothing more joyful than going home. I have nothing to be dissatisfied about. Daddy is also very happy to be able to go back on such a good ship. happy."

Qiao Ran looked at the portrait in his hand and said jokingly:

"Dad, isn't my mother good-looking? Fortunately, dad, you didn't marry another woman. Otherwise, my mother would definitely not want you again. If my mother divorced you, there would be many people who wanted to marry her. Yes!"

After hearing this, Qiao Dajiang's face was filled with black lines, and he glared at her angrily:

"You girl, why are you still joking about your father? How could your father and I marry another woman? Your mother is such a good woman, even if my father really loses his memory, there is no way he would do anything sorry to her!"

After a pause, he turned his attention to the portrait again and asked with some anxiety:

"Ran Ran, is your mother really as young and beautiful as the one in this painting? I remember she wasn't that young when I left home! Could it be that you specially painted her to look prettier to make dad happy? But what if? If your mother is really so beautiful, wouldn’t it mean that my father is not good enough for her? What if I stand next to her and be regarded as your mother’s elder? I... I’m afraid to see your mother. ”

Looking at her father who was obviously very handsome but very unsure of himself, Qiao Ran suppressed her laughter and comforted him:

"Dad, are you questioning my painting skills? What I painted is a real mother. She is so young and beautiful now! Dad, you don't have to worry about not being worthy of my mother, you are younger now than before. He’s much more handsome! If you don’t believe me, just look at it for yourself!”

With that said, Qiao Ran took a mirror from the space and handed it to her father.

Suddenly seeing a handsome face in the mirror, Qiao Dajiang was startled and almost threw out the portrait in his hand.

"This...this is...?"

He stretched his head and looked around the mirror, but saw no one else. Then he pointed at the mirror in front of him with a look of disbelief on his face:

"Is this...is this me? Is it really me?"

Qiao Ran was amused by her father's behavior. She nodded with a smile:

"Yes, Dad, you look like this now. Aren't you much prettier than before? If you met my grandma and mother on the street, they might not even dare to recognize you!"

Qiao Dajiang carefully put down the portrait in his hand, then carefully took the mirror with both hands, and used the mirror to look at his face in surprise.

Sometimes he touches his nose, sometimes he pulls his face, sometimes he pulls his hair out, sometimes he pulls his ears...

After a while, he was convinced that what he saw in the mirror was himself.

"Is this really me? How come I am getting younger and younger as I live?"

He touched his face, and it turned out that it was much softer and smoother than before. Now there was no trace of the wrinkles and wrinkles that had appeared on his face long ago.

He couldn't help but doubt the reality of what this mirror reflected.

"Ran Ran, is this a mirror? What is it made of? Why is it better than a bronze mirror? I'm afraid the most expensive bronze mirror can't produce such a clear image, right? But how can it still make people look younger? So much? Even if my father is twenty years younger, I’m afraid he’s not as handsome as the person in the mirror! Is this really me?”

No wonder Qiao Dajiang doubts, how can anyone live younger and younger?

Not to mention that he had been away from home for so many years. When he was running a boat, he was exposed to wind, sun, and rain. After living on Agate Island, his life was even more difficult than on the boat.

At the beginning, there was no cooked food, no rice, flour and food, so we ate raw wild animals, fish, seafood, wild vegetables, etc.

Later, they taught everyone to cook with fire, but there was not enough food to eat. The living conditions were very difficult, and they became very old in just a few years.

He thought that he had turned into a rude and savage savage, and was afraid that his wife would be afraid and disgusted when she saw him.

But the person in the mirror was even more handsome than when he was young. How could he believe that that was who he was now?

Qiao Ran straightened her expression, nodded firmly, and gave him a definite answer:

"Dad, there's nothing wrong with the mirror. This is a precious mirror given to me by the old god. Whatever you look like, it will look exactly like you in the reflection. There's no distortion at all! If you don't believe me, just look at me and try."

After hearing this, Qiao Dajiang actually held a mirror and put it in front of his daughter. He looked at the person in the mirror from behind her, and it turned out that he was exactly the same as his daughter, without any distortion.

At this moment, Qiao Dajiang grinned happily.

"Hehehehe! Hahaha! Okay! That's great! It turns out that I'm not ugly at all. Now it's great. Hui Niang won't dislike me anymore!"
