Bring It Up

Hello everyone,

Could you please tell me what "bring it up" means in the following sentence?

"All right, but when we do get them, what will we do to them? asked Dick.

"We can leave them on the island, or we can kill them- that's what Flint or Billy Bones would have done," said Silver. "I say we ought to kill them. We'll wait, and then we'll do it," said Silver. Now, let's have some rum.

"Dick", said Silver, "I'll let you get it. Here's the key. Fill up a cup and bring it up."

Here's the idea. Go and get some rum Then bring it (the rum) up to this place where we are talking. It sounds like the rum is located at a lower level.
