"Great harvest! Amy! Great harvest!" Ella happily ran into Amy's cabin, "I emptied all the accumulated toga! I also sold more than ten sets of equipment! I also sold glass beads. A whole box!”
With one sentence, Amy, who was calculating the accounts, was so frightened that she broke the quill in her hand with a click.
"Your Majesty? What happened when it was cleared? Didn't you go to instruct the priests about the rituals?"
"I asked them to change their outfits from head to toe and took the opportunity to sell our products! How about that, smart, right?"
Amy's body began to tremble: "Your Majesty... I said that I will be responsible for all trade matters, right? Are you still not self-aware of your financial capabilities?"
"Huh? But I did make a profit this time! Just like that Toga..."
Amy tried her best to control Ella's excitement: "Your Majesty, please speak more slowly. It's best to pause for a few minutes after each sentence! I'm afraid that if you speak too fast, I won't be able to hold my breath anymore and I will faint here."
"Okay... First of all, Toga, I sold hundreds of items to more than a dozen priests, and each person bought dozens of sets on average!"
"Then he got a turkey and ate it on the road?"
"No! I exchanged it for a leopard skin of the same area!"
"The leopard...is the wailing beast on the altar today, right?" Amy scratched her head, "It sounds like it's quite valuable."
"Then there's that box of glass beads! The priests liked it very much and bought them all..."
"Then he got a turkey and ate it on the road?"
"No! Each one has been replaced with a gemstone of about the same size!"
"Hmm... It's similar to the information we got in Sweden. What about the armor? It was replaced by a turkey and eaten on the road?"
"Why do you keep mentioning turkey! I'm not a beggar on the roadside... Although I really want to eat it, I exchanged it for gold! I exchanged the iron for the same amount of gold! How about it, I made a lot of money, right? "
"Wait, if it's true, this is too weird..."
“What’s weird???”
"Your Majesty did not lose money when doing business???"
"Of course you won't lose money!" Ella yelled, "Amy, what do you think of me???"
Amy wiped the tears of excitement from the corners of her eyes: "Your Majesty, you have finally grown up."
"It doesn't make me happy at all to be said like that! Apologize to me, Amy! Apologize to me by adding roast chicken to my dinner!"
Amy rubbed her hands happily: "The new fire ceremony is approaching, and the locals seem to be very concerned about whether His Majesty's diet has broken the rules... But it doesn't matter. Your Majesty works so hard, I will definitely find a way to sneak one in during the midnight snack - then , where is the money earned from the transaction? Your Majesty should have counted it, is there no mistake?"
"Not yet, they are preparing it and will send it over soon!"
"Huh? So you haven't paid me yet?"
"Of course not. But don't worry, Amy, in order to ensure the success of the transaction, I have already shipped the goods first!" Ella was full of confidence, "This is a confirmed deal, it can't be run away!"
Amy's body swayed slightly.
"Your Majesty, you haven't received the money yet, but you have already sent the goods first?"
"What are you afraid of? There are all reputable people on the other side. How can you give me money?" Ella patted her chest, "If I can lose money, I won't eat until the new fire ceremony." Meat dishes!”
"King of Sweden!" A pirate shouted outside the door, "The Aztlan people have sent several big boxes!"
"It's coming!" Amy opened the door and jumped out, "Amy, let's go and count the money together!"
There were three large wooden boxes on the dock, each as high as Ella's waist. Twelve Aztlan men stood respectfully beside the wooden box. The four of them carried a wooden box and walked all the way here, already out of breath.
"Why are they closed? Come on, open these boxes quickly." Ella urged, then turned around and looked at Amy triumphantly, "Let everyone see what's inside!"
There were several heavy sounds of opening boxes behind me. At the same time, Amy screamed "Yeah".
"How about it, Amy, are you scared?" Ella raised her head proudly and said, "I can also make a lot of money!"
"Your Majesty..." Amy pointed behind Ella with a trembling finger, "Would you like to turn around and see what's inside?"
From Amy's eyes, Ella realized something. She trembled and turned around - sure enough, most of the items in the box were cocoa beans and feather ornaments, and as for the gold, there was only a very small amount.
"What's going on?" Ella shouted, "Didn't I say that I would exchange it for an equal amount of gold, leopard skin, and gems? Why did you give me this little bean again?"
"Gold is only plentiful on the mainland, but we don't have it here, so we replaced it with goods of equal value. The same goes for the gems, which were replaced with bird feather ornaments." The Aztlan man who came carrying the box said, "There are all these in the market. It’s traded in cocoa beans, so don’t worry, the value is the same.”
Ella squatted down holding her head in pain: "Why is it like this every time! It's the same value here, but it's different when I ship it back!"
"Your Majesty, how many times are you going to fight on this matter?" Amy sighed and walked in front of Ella to negotiate for Ella, "Although we are sorry, we don't like this substitute very much. If the gold is not enough If so, can it be replaced with other goods, such as peppers?"
"Chili peppers? That would require a lot!" The Aztlan man was a little embarrassed, "I'm afraid if we bring all the chili peppers from the entire island, the price won't be as good as these feather ornaments and cocoa beans..."
"It's okay, just the peppers. After all, we are not here to do business, so there is no need to worry about it." A kind smile appeared on Amy's face, "Just give us as much as you have. You are tired of moving around, so I will give you some." Let’s have a glass bead for each person.”
The Aztlan people were overjoyed, took the glass beads, packed the box and left.
"Amy, what are you doing with the peppers!" After everyone left, Ella couldn't help shouting, "That kind of stuff doesn't taste good at all! It's good as a torture tool, but I don't need so many!"
"What kind of torture device? I sound like a masochist who likes to be tortured!" Amy blushed and stamped her foot. "This is spice! I bet it will be very popular! If there is no gold, how much can you bring back the pepper?" You can also make some money back!”
"Gu...can I earn it back? That would be okay..."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty." Amy looked at her coldly, "According to what you just said, the food before the new fire ceremony..."
"This can't be done!" Ella held her head and wailed, "I just said casually, there are still two months until the new fire ceremony. If I don't eat meat for two months, I will die!"
"Your Majesty needs to use this incident to remember it! Otherwise, there is no guarantee that the whole of Sweden will lose money and end up living on the streets as a beggar!"
"How can you lose a country? I don't care, you have to eat meat, eat meat, eat meat!"
"What kind of meat?" Tesosomok's voice came from afar. He discussed the matter with Ousalmat and was only now being carried back on a stretcher.
"Nothing." Ella coughed urgently, "We are discussing when we can go to the mainland to earn money... to spread the belief of Quetzalcoatl."
"There's no rush at the moment." Tesosomok laughed, "The nearby Tratoani will be here soon. Take this opportunity to show them the new form of the festival!"
"Hey, we don't need to run around, there will be many Tratoani coming here on their own?"
"Yes." Tesosomok replied, "I have jointly issued an invitation with Osomat, asking them all to come and experience the supreme power you showed last night, Lord Envoy!"
