Chapter 290: It’s better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early
Bai Tao opened the door with messy hair. Before she stepped out of the room, she saw Bai Dashan walking towards her quickly.
He said hurriedly, "Aunt, we are sorry for waking you up."
Bai Tao was still drowsy at first, but when she saw Bai Dashan's expression, she stopped rubbing her eyes and asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"
"To answer your question, Qi and Liang have started fighting, and one of our caravan's troops is at the border between the two countries. Now they can only enter but not leave."
Bai Tao suddenly came to her senses and said, "When did this happen?"
"The news came early this morning. Judging from the distance traveled, the incident should have happened four or five days ago."
Four or five days?
Logically speaking, it is impossible for two countries to go to war without prior preparation, after all, food and supplies must be sent before troops move forward.
There was no sign before, how come it suddenly...
"How are our people now?"
Originally, we had not been able to prepare for the New Year before delivering that batch of goods. Who knew that something like this would happen.
In fact, Ji Xianhai’s original words were: If they had tied you up, you would have killed this little white bear long ago. It is said that your sister Bai would eat the bear’s paw as soon as she came back.
"Send a message to the trapped people, tell us not to panic and take care of our own safety. No one is more important than the supplies and goods."
The Qi Kingdom envoy rolled his eyes politely and said, "Who followed them? That's Mount Junji. They got here a step earlier than you. There's nothing to be proud of. We still haven't seen the head of the Baijiabao caravan."
"Take it to the reception room and tell us you'll be here in a moment."
But people's self-confidence and arrogance are brought about by confidence. When they lose a certain level of strength, they will naturally be timid and shrink like those who have seen the world.
"Yes, village chief, you remember it."
"Please have breakfast first." Zhuge Liang came to visit her eight times. If you want to see your aunt, you should wait a while.
The Liang envoy was choked and said angrily: "So what? You came first, and the master will definitely see you first."
We hurried and traveled in secret, but we didn't expect Qiguo to be here as well. It seems that the purpose of this trip will be difficult to achieve.
Bai Xiaoshan: "Auntie, Brother Ji and Old Whitehead, we are going to retreat from the mountains to hunt."
However, Bai Xiaocheng soon received the gift from Qi State.
Before Bai Xiaocheng ran behind them, he shouted, "Auntie, Auntie, no one is coming. They are from Qiguo."
Bai Tao had just left the room when she suddenly remembered something strange: "By the way, where is the little guy?"
"I said I saw a little white bear and wanted to get a bear paw for my aunt."
If not, the trapped people would have no chance of sending out messages in such a short time.
Bai Tao smiled evilly: "Okay."
"They are shameless and are imitating you."
If only people from one country came, he would have to relax, but since two countries came, Bai Xiaoshan was stupid. After thinking about it, he estimated that they didn't ask for anything from the Baijiabao caravan.
Your aunt can't meet them on an empty stomach, so they just have to wait quickly.
When the Qi Kingdom envoy heard this, he relaxed his restraints, but he also showed his timidity at this moment, so he laughed: "What a joke, how can he guess what the master is thinking? Who will you meet first? Who can say for sure?"
"Yes, great aunt."
"Remember, we are the ones who come to ask you for help." Bai Xiaoshan reminded again and again.
Seeing Bai Tao frowning, Bai Dashan quickly comforted her: "Auntie, don't worry too much, they will definitely be safe."
"Then..." Bai Xiaoshan frowned. When the two countries were at war, they sent people there. What did they want to do?
Here, the people of Liang State unexpectedly came to the rescue as well.
As is the case with Qi State, Liang State should also not give in.
When two countries are at war, naturally when they meet each other they will regard each other's eyes as eyes and noses as noses.
Bai Youli: "Auntie, Liang State sent someone to contact you, wanting to..."
Hearing this, Bai Tao felt somewhat fortunate, as she had previously spent 200,000 coins to have the mall upgrade her communicator.
We have to farm in spring. If we fight a war at that time, will we have enough food and fodder stored?
Bai Tao was surprised, but also puzzled.
"Yes, great aunt."
As Bai Xiaoshan responded, he saw Bai Youli running over in a hurry.
It must be after that, how could Bai Xiaoshan not have that idea, let alone dare to think so.
"Those are the gifts you send to our boss. Please help pass them on for you, brother."
At that time, the casualties were too low. As long as there was bleeding and the body temperature dropped, many women would die.
"It's obvious that you weren't here first."
They all thought they were acting mysteriously, but they ended up bumping into each other and the two teams were facing each other again.
"What's wrong?" Bai Xiaoshan asked, "Is he in charge of guarding the village entrance today?"
"Okay, go ahead." Bai Xiaoshan waved at the two of them, then turned to Bai Tao and coaxed her softly, "Aunt, don't be slow. You just woke up and haven't had breakfast yet. Go get you breakfast."
What this means is that you cannot abandon the goods to save yourself.
"Yeah." Liang Ya: "You want to drink sesame paste, and then make you some meat pie."
Before I could finish my words, another person came running over.
So, the two sides started pointing at each other's noses and cursing in the reception room.
"They are the ones who can help you calm down. Don't be so anxious. Be steady. We are not asking anything from you now. They should be more humble and don't embarrass me."
Bai Xiaoshan came back to his senses and hurriedly said to the two of them, "Please make some tea and let us wait."
Although there was no fight, both sides were merciful in their words.
"Yes." Before Liang Yalin answered, she looked at Bai Tao and said, "My aunt has already made trouble."
Liang Yalin and Bai Xiaocheng looked at each other after hearing this, and immediately put it away with a look of anxiety on their faces: "Village Chief, you know it."
"They are shameless and followed you to Taohua Village."
Bai Youli also received a few boxes of things. The key point was that both teams delivered gifts one after the other, carrying boxes.
Since you are not asking for anything from anyone, you have to follow the rules.
"Find out why Qi and Liang fought." It was early winter, almost the New Year, and wars would usually be fought at that time.
"Hey."
"Huh, I didn't expect that they would follow us." The envoy from Liang said with disdain.
Bai Dashan: "Auntie, don't worry. Although we are trapped, the team has communicators. There is nothing serious at the moment, and everyone is doing well."
As he spoke, the envoy from Qi State gave a look to the people in his team.
They must have remembered their mission in Taohua Village. I'm afraid both sides would fight on the spot.
"You were the first to arrive at Taohua Village."
"Yes, yes, nothing happened?"
The communicators in the villagers' hands can reach up to ten kilometers.
