As everyone finally calmed down the noise they started, the meeting continued to proceed.
King Danilo spoke, ”well now I know why every one of you here in this room is now wondering, why I want to introduce this young man to you. Well, the reason is because of a certain product where we can use to increase our kingdom's income.”
Rafael then asks king Danilo, ”so what is that product that the young man has knowledge about, that you even troubled your busy schedule by calling everyone here.”
Danilo immediately replied, ”It's pepper”
Everyone in the room started whispering to the people next to them. One of the nobles in the room said, ”pepper, that's actually a very expensive item. I remember the war Two hundred years ago because of the said pepper, even today pepper is still a very valuable item that other countries are willing to wage war.”
Another noble comment, ”If we can get those peppers it means that young lad's presence is definitely important for us.”
Lyra commented on King Danilo's words, ” Then your highness how come you are sure about the reliability of what this man said.”
King Danilo replies, ”Don't worry Prince Eric has proved it to me. Also, the peppers are said to be higher quality than the current pepper, in the market today. White pepper is also available in that country which is used for preparing seafood, dishes.”
The master of the merchant guild immediately spoke after hearing about the quality of peppers, ” My king I'm now quite interested in those pepper, imagine how much would that bring to our kingdom if we manage to buy those peppers and sell them to neighboring countries.”

The king immediately replied, ”I have already thought about it, but the problem is the transport of the product if we start a trade with them. You already know how dangerous the route going to the Island of no return.”
Prince Eric immediately let out a cough to get everyone else attention. Everyone immediately looks at Eric.
Eric spike, ”you don't have to worry about the transportation of the pepper as their navy is powerful enough to send fear to the monsters and pirates lurking in the seas.”
Everyone didn't care about the power of the navy but were feeling relieved after hearing that the country of Dariel, can deliver the pepper safely.
The noble merchant spoke, ”well I do want to see those peppers in real life. I am not certain if the prince tells the truth. But if they were real I would do what I said earlier on trading pepper.”
King Danilo spoke, ”Well, I already know that your gonna ask me about that so I have prepared a cultural exchange that will be held in ten days, which is also the same date as the foundation anniversary of our country. The event will present the different products, cultures, and foods of sir Rogen's country, and in exchange, we will also do the same in the country of Dariel after a month of the celebration, which will be conducted and headed by some selected people present here.”
Everyone was happy for the cultural exchange but they were also felt fear after hearing that they will go to the Island of no return. Most of the people present in the room were praying that they won't get chosen to go.
