Chapter 348 - Conversation with the East African King
Dar es Salaam, the center of the East African Kingdom, was a city full of vitality. Although the Far Eastern doctors had arrived for several days, they hadn't seen the king yet. The official from the East African Embassy had informed them that they would meet with the king soon.
In a spacious and well-furnished room of the Dar es Salaam Palace, Li Ge and Ander, accompanied by Aryan, waited for their audience with King Constantine III of the East African Kingdom.
The room was adorned with intricate patterns and richly colored fabrics. It was unlike anything they had seen in the Far East. Li Ge and Ander, dressed in their official robes, sat patiently on the chairs provided.
Aryan, who had been acting as their translator and guide, reassured them, "The meeting will start shortly. Just be respectful and remember the protocol."
Moments later, the large doors at the far end of the room swung open, and King Constantine III entered. He was a man in his early forties, with a regal bearing and an air of authority. He wore a simple yet elegant robe, and his presence commanded respect.
Aryan stood up and introduced, "Your Majesty, allow me to present Dr. Li Ge and Dr. Ander, medical experts from the Far East. They have come to offer their assistance to the East African Kingdom."
The king nodded graciously and spoke in a deep, resonant voice, "Welcome, doctors from the Far East. I have heard of your expertise, and we are grateful for your willingness to help our people in their time of need."
Li Ge and Ander bowed respectfully and Li Ge replied, "Your Majesty, it is our honor to be here to provide medical assistance. We are committed to doing our best to alleviate the suffering of your people."
King Constantine III smiled warmly and said, "Your dedication is greatly appreciated. We have heard about the advanced medical practices in the Far East, and we hope that your expertise can benefit our kingdom. Please, have a seat, and we can discuss the details of your mission."
They all took their seats, and the conversation turned to the specifics of the medical mission. Aryan skillfully translated their discussions as they talked about the healthcare challenges in the East African Kingdom, the availability of medical supplies, and the areas where the Far Eastern doctors could make the most impact.
As the meeting continued, King Constantine III showed a keen interest in the medical practices of the Far East. He asked questions about different treatment methods, the use of herbal medicine, and even inquired about acupuncture.
Li Ge and Ander were impressed by the king's knowledge and curiosity. They realized that despite the cultural differences, the king was genuinely interested in improving the healthcare of his people.
After a fruitful discussion, the meeting concluded with King Constantine III expressing his gratitude once again. He said, "I look forward to the positive impact your mission will have on the health of our citizens. If there is anything you need during your stay, please do not hesitate to ask."
Li Ge and Ander expressed their gratitude and assured the king that they would do their best to fulfill their mission.
As they left the palace, Aryan turned to Li Ge and Ander and said, "The king was quite impressed with both of you. Your expertise and willingness to help have made a positive impression. This is a good start to your mission here."
Li Ge and Ander nodded in agreement, feeling a sense of fulfillment. They had come to East Africa with the hope of making a difference in the lives of its people, and their meeting with the king had set a positive tone for their mission.
