Perhaps Dak's current princess outfit is too icy and beautiful, but his voice is too hoarse. The discordant conflicts inside and outside made the bureaucrats on the opposite side suddenly give up their pursuit of the mulled cheese.

Fight and turn to Duck's side again.

At this time, Mochi quickly grabbed Sweet Wine Cheese and pulled her back to her seat. The Blue Bay official next to her said -

"Mr. Willy, we do come here with sincerity. If you don't have the slightest sincerity, then why would you welcome us here? I believe that both of us definitely have room for discussion. Now we can

Can’t we end this meaningless tit-for-tat first?”

Perhaps because this official's voice was softer, the Hunter official opposite stopped talking and sat down again.

At this time, Her Majesty the Queen finally spoke and said slowly——

"Viscount Garcia, your name is... Ariel, right?"

Ariel nodded and responded: "Exactly."

A faint smile appeared on the Queen's face, and she said slowly: "Ariel... I didn't expect that someone in Blue Bay would name her after the sea succubus."

The smile on Ariel's face gradually narrowed.

The Queen continued: "I have heard of the surname Garcia. It is a very good business group. I heard that your family started by making toys, and now the business has expanded to various household items.

As well as some nobles’ jewelry, bags and some accessories, right?”

The explanation here doesn't make much sense. Ariel could only say slowly: "I don't have a close relationship with the Garcia family. This surname is something I have to do out of necessity."

Obviously, the Queen did not think deeply about the deeper meaning hidden in Ariel's words. She just thought it was a sideways self-effacement. At the moment, the Queen nodded and said with a smile: "With the sideways power,

Climbing to this position in the mission is indeed a great achievement. However, since your surname is Garcia, have you ever been in contact with the business with our Hunter?"

If you have contact or understanding, there will be ghosts!

Anyway, Ariel felt that there was no need to save face for the Garcia family, and then said: "I'm sorry, I really don't know much about this aspect."

Seeing this, the Queen stopped talking. The official opposite continued: "The Garcia Business Group was one of the few caravans that had been doing business with our Hunter. However, the business has begun to become more and more recent.

It’s hard to do.”

Ariel was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Is it because of... the tariff issue?"

The Hunter bureaucrat opposite nodded and said: "I know that your new emperor has just ascended the throne recently, but before he ascended the throne, your new emperor has actually been in charge of the entire Blue Bay Empire for two years. At the beginning of this year

, he gave us an additional 25% tax on the products imported from your Blue Bay to our Hunter, do you know this?"

On the way to the Ora Empire, Ariel more or less made up for the relationship between the two countries and the recent policies. Although the number is not large, it can still provide a basic understanding.

degree.

Ariel thought for a while and said: "In other words, your request is...that we reduce this tariff?"

The Willy bureaucrat on the opposite side snorted coldly and continued: "Whether you want to lift it or not is your problem. Anyway, all the increased tariffs will be added to your own heads in the end. To put it bluntly, Blue Bay, you are so

You can't wait to increase tariffs, and the increase is as much as 25% in one go... There must be a big problem with your domestic economic situation, right?"

Now, the opponent has clearly begun to attack the Blue Bay Empire.

If the other party is allowed to continue attacking like this, then this negotiation will definitely be a clean slate in terms of momentum.

Ariel snorted softly and said slowly: "Speaking of the economic situation, if we at Blue Bay say it's not going to work, you Hunters won't be much better, right?"

It was obvious that Bureaucrat Willy on the opposite side also frowned.

"In the past year or so, various countries on the Golden Continent have experienced varying degrees of drought. Since countries like us that are close to the sea will experience drought, then the situation in a completely landlocked country like yours is quite different.

It will only be more serious than that.”
