Señor Von-Geld,

I have heard so much about you.
How you have the capacity to feed the people of Crete,
become a valuable partner in both the field of trade as the field of battle.
Our common enemy, las Hecians, they would fear such a pact between us.

A wise hombre once came up with this story about biting the hand that feeds.
But what if one cannot trust the hand that feeds?
What if the hand that feeds is actually trying to poison you and your people?
Is it not better then, to bite the hand that feeds and eat the hand instead?

You wish this collaboration to remain confidential.
How could this bring fear upon the Hessians?
A hombre cannot fear what he does not know.

You call the space of our empire uncivilized, and praise foreign ships as if they are superior to our ships.
Esperar... do you really think you are better than us?

I am fully aware that elder Lopez is thinking highly of you.
But let us be clear about one thing señor,
if you wish to increase operations in Corsair territory to aid the people of Crete,
you will have to increase your aid to me.

I have this little internal matter that you could help me with.
Right now I do not feel like explaining myself but I will tell you how you can help.

You will make the Benitez familia an offer they cannot refuse.
A sizable quantity of canned food at a extremely low price.
If the price is low enough they will buy it to distribute it to the poor.
La día de los muertos is coming soon and this will be a perfect occasion for them to increase their popularity.

What they don't know is that you will make sure this food is highly polluted.
Make sure the food is canned, do not raise suspicion.
Meanwhile, I have people that will make sure the Benitez familia takes the blame for it.

Do this and I will know that the Brotherhood can trust you.
It will make things easier for me, thus easier for you.
