Story continues from yesterday:
That very afternoon the Duke of Aequitas stood before the princess in her father’s study.
“From whom do we buy cotton, cocoa, fruit and vegetables?” she asked him.
“From the Calidum Terram nation Your Highness. We have traded with their people for many years,” he replied.
“Well it’s time you got us a better deal!”
Aequitas was taken aback.
“Forgive me Your Highness, but we already have a good deal. We pay a fair price for top quality produce. It’s a good deal for us and a good deal for them.”
“My people want it cheaper, so that they can afford more. And I intend to give them what they want. Sir, I insist that you make it happen! Renegotiate the deal!”
Aequitas took a deep breath. “Your Highness, I have in my possession a decree, written by your father, which gives me complete discretion in our trade agreements with Calidum Terram. The king has put his trust in me and I will not be persuaded to betray it. Our trade agreements are long-standing, fair and amicable and I will not renegotiate.”
