บท 924: To the Capital

Qiao Xuan, Shao Yunduan, Lu Min, and Gu Zhiyou were not arrogant individuals. On the contrary, they were kind-hearted and did not want to burden others with their presence.

They covered their own expenses for food and accommodation, ensuring they didn't take advantage of the caravan. Instead, they would stop for a day and a half upon reaching large towns, purchasing local specialties like candied fruits, fried goods, pastries, roasted chicken, and braised meat to treat everyone.

Qiao Xuan even instructed Lixia, Liqiu, and Songshi to distribute red packets to every member of the caravan based on the position of the recommended men and older masters. They gave the most to Boss Tang, with 30 liang, and at least 2 liang to the laborers, considering it a symbol of good luck.

The caravan members were delighted to see their generosity, which led to a significant improvement in friendliness and camaraderie.
