Chapter 258 Phoenician King Alasiya

After listening to the Phoenician businessman's praise of himself, Roy couldn't help but say.

"Mr. Merchant, your words make me embarrassed. In order to thank you for your kindness, I am willing to accept your help and be your guest, but you must accept my reward."

After speaking, Roy raised Andromeda's right hand, took off the gold bracelet from her wrist and handed it to the Phoenician merchant.

The Phoenician merchant said with a troubled expression.

"Gold ornaments are inherently valuable, and the gold ornaments worn by the princess are even more priceless. Can I really accept this?"

"I can't accept your kindness if you don't accept the reward."

The Phoenician merchant sighed and reluctantly took the gold bracelet from Roy's hand.

As Roy and Andromeda followed the Phoenician merchant to his mansion, Andromeda leaned into Roy's ear and whispered.

"You use my property as yours. Are you treating me as your wife - or are you treating me as your slave?"

Smelling Andromeda's fragrant body fragrance up close, Roy said with a smile.

"I'm not willing to treat you as a slave."

Between two unrelated men and women, if the man can control the woman's property, the woman must be his wife or slave.

Hearing Roy deny treating her as a slave, Andromeda smiled sweetly and hugged Roy's right arm, resting her head on Roy's shoulder.

Tanis City Center.

After following the Phoenician merchants to a street not far from the palace, Roy said with some surprise when he saw noble mansions on both sides of the street.

"Mr. Merchant, it seems that your status in Tanis City is not that of an ordinary civilian."

"How is it possible for ordinary civilians to acquire huge amounts of wealth and go overseas for trade?"

The Phoenician merchant said frankly.

"My status is considered to be a noble among the Phoenicians, and I can directly meet with our Phoenician king Arathia. Since His Majesty the King of Athens has come to the city of Tanis, do you want to go to the palace to meet with us Phoenicians? Meet King Alashia?"

"If King Alashia is willing to meet with me, I, as a guest, should certainly visit His Majesty the King."

"Then let's go directly to the palace!"

The Phoenician merchant said with a regretful expression.

"Your Majesty the King of Athens, although I want to entertain you personally and gain your friendship, after all, I am a subject of the King of Phoenicia, so I cannot let the King of Phoenicia miss the opportunity to meet you."

After arriving at the palace from Noble Street, the Phoenician businessman showed his identity to the soldiers guarding the palace gate. A soldier immediately ran as fast as possible to the palace where the Phoenician king was.

After a while.

A young king wearing a golden crown and white cotton robes embroidered with gold threads ran out of the palace barefoot and came to Roy and said.

"Are you King Roy of Athens? I have been admiring you for a long time. You are the Platinum King with endless white salt."

Roy said, pretending to be dissatisfied.

"Are you the Phoenician King Arathia? If you go to the city of Athens in person, you will know that my city of Athens is not as wealthy as your city of Tanis, and my palace is not as luxurious as yours."

There is a saying that wealth should not be revealed in vain.

Although Roy can indeed obtain endless white salt by drying salt from sea water, if everyone thinks that Roy really has endless white salt, the forces that covet Roy's endless wealth are likely to unite and attack him. The Kingdom of Athens launched a war to plunder wealth.

Therefore, before the strength of the Kingdom of Athens was enough to defeat all enemies, Roy felt the need to tell the fact that his wealth was not as exaggerated as the rumors.

After listening to Roy's words, Alashia said with a smile.

"My wealth is the accumulation of hundreds of years of business by my ancestors. It is incomparable with the myth of your wealth creation. King Loy of Athens! Thank you for coming to my palace as a guest and letting me entertain you as the host. Now that night is falling, please let me hold a dinner party for you."

After saying that, he took Roy's hand and walked into the palace.

Seeing that Alashia ignored Andromeda and didn't take a second look at the beautiful Andromeda, Roy was very satisfied with his performance.

Roy and Andromeda followed Alashia through the palace courtyard and into the banquet hall. Alashia stood at the door of the hall and shouted.

"My servants, hurry up and light all the oil lamps in the hall, and then prepare a banquet of the highest standard for me to entertain the most noble guest."

After all the maids and maids in the hall became busy, Alashia asked Roy.

"King of Athens, I would like to summon all the nobles of Tanis City to attend your banquet. Are you willing to meet them?"

Roy shook his head and said.

"King of Phoenicia, please don't do this. I hope that the dinner party you hosted for me will only be attended by our family members."

Alashia nodded immediately and said.

"Since you ask, let's just have our family at the dinner."

After hearing what Roy and Alashia said, the Phoenician merchant came to Andromeda with a regretful expression, took out the gold bracelet and said.

"Your Highness Princess! Since I have not entertained you, I cannot accept your bracelet. Now I will return it."

Seeing Roy talking to Alashia, Andromeda said hesitantly.

"Although I don't want to lose my gold bracelet, after all, this is the reward Roy gave you."

"But you paid too much."

The Phoenician merchant put the bracelet in Andromeda's hand and said.

"Whenever I encounter trouble in the future, it will be enough for His Majesty the King of Athens to provide me with some small help."

After saying that, the Phoenician merchant left as if running away.

Seeing that she could no longer return the bracelet to the Phoenician merchant, Andromeda put the bracelet back on her wrist.

After the oil lamp burning olive oil illuminated the banquet hall like daylight, Roy and Alashia sat down around the banquet table.

Next to Loy sat Andromeda, and next to Alashia sat his queen and a group of concubines.

Alashia said to his queen and concubines.

"My beloved wives, let me introduce to you our distinguished guests. His Majesty the King of Athens is not only the most powerful king in the Aegean Sea, but also possesses unimaginable wealth. If we are driven out of Northern Egypt by the Southern Egyptians in the future, we will We will definitely need the help of His Majesty the King of Athens.”

Knowing that Loy was a distinguished guest who would be able to provide assistance to the Phoenician Kingdom in the future, the queen of Arathia and her concubines all smiled warmly.

The queen took the initiative to speak to Andromeda.

"Dear sister, you are still dressed as an unmarried girl. When do you plan to marry His Majesty the King of Athens and become the Queen of the King of Athens?"

Andromeda said shyly.

"He hasn't proposed to my father yet!"

"Then you have to hold on tight to him. You can't let your husband be snatched away by another woman."

said the queen, pretending to be proud.

"If I hadn't held on to Alashia at the beginning, another woman would have become his queen now, and I could only become his concubine."

Then, the queen turned to the side chambers and said.

"Sisters, you won't be angry at my words, will you?"

How could the concubines have the right to be angry with the queen?

Hearing the queen's question, the side chambers all smiled and shook their heads.
