Quick mission: We don't make trouble
Chapter 57 Caravan
The princess's procession took two full days to prepare. During this time, Zhu Qingqing and the others stayed obediently in the yard and did not dare to step out.
After all, they knew very well that this kind of excitement was not something that ordinary people like them could easily join in.
There are always various plots in those time-travel novels, such as making friends with princesses and dignitaries, and then stirring up a lot of changes, etc., but for Zhu Qingqing and others, these plots are too far-fetched and unrealistic.
They know how capable they are and don't have the energy to get involved in these matters.
So it is better to live your own life steadily and realistically!
They know their own limitations and don't want to cause trouble, let alone bring unnecessary disaster upon themselves.
The most important thing is to live a peaceful life.
Finally, on the third day, the princess's procession set off again, heading towards the Tubo capital.
Chief Zhaxi and Lady Baima escorted the princess all the way.
With the departure of the princess and her entourage, the small village returned to its former tranquility and peace.
Wang Xiangdong and Zhu Qingqing were preparing to go to Da Zhou, but since they had never been there before, they had no idea what they would need. Fortunately, the experienced butler had been there before and knew exactly what they needed.
While the chief steward methodically directed his men to prepare supplies for them, he personally found some fresh ingredients and brought them to the courtyard, inviting Zhu Qingqing to once again demonstrate her culinary skills. He also arranged for Yangjin to learn from him, hoping that she could master as many cooking techniques as possible so that she could prepare delicious meals for them after Zhu Qingqing and the others left.
Hehe, the butler would naturally not easily admit that he was greedy, but he just thought that changing the taste occasionally was a good thing.
Yangjin studied very attentively, and Zhu Qingqing taught her with great care and attention to detail. On the one hand, they felt a little guilty about living here for free; on the other hand, Yangjin was truly a likable and good girl.
Days passed, and they were constantly busy and waiting. Every day was filled with anticipation and anxiety, but they always believed that the day the caravan arrived would bring them good luck and hope.
Finally, the day had arrived! They had waited so long, and finally, the caravan appeared on the distant horizon. After completing a series of large-scale transactions in the Tibetan capital, the caravan embarked on its return journey to the Great Zhou, laden with precious Tibetan specialties.
The caravan was massive and imposing, its carts and yaks laden with heavy cargoes slowly advancing. The people in the group looked exhausted yet filled with excitement, for they knew this journey would bring them rich rewards. The caravan's arrival was like a spring breeze, dispelling the gloom from everyone's hearts and filling the entire area with vitality and energy.
This village is a must-pass place for them and also a rest stop along the way.
When they entered the village, someone had already led them to the inn, and someone else came to tell the steward that the leader of the caravan had also come with him. He wanted to see the steward.
The team leader, surnamed Yang, was a middle-aged man. He was short, his skin a dark reddish hue, as if weathered by the elements. He wore a short gray coat over a sheepskin waistcoat, giving him the air of a travel-worn, weathered man. At this moment, he looked almost identical to the Tibetans.
This caravan frequently traveled between the Great Zhou and Tubo, becoming intimately familiar with the region. Whenever they passed through a region, the leader would prepare gifts for the local steward. These ranged from fine tea and silks brought from the Great Zhou to a variety of unique and unusual items collected from Tubo. Upon receiving the gifts, the steward would do his utmost to facilitate the trip, ensuring a smooth and unimpeded journey. Over time, a tacit understanding and a harmonious cooperative relationship developed between the two sides. This mutually beneficial relationship not only allowed the caravan to conduct its business with peace of mind, but also fostered cultural exchange and trade between different regions.
This time, the butler did not cast his gaze on the box that the leader had handed over as usual. Instead, he said, "Yang, was your trip to the capital smooth sailing for the transaction?"
Team Leader Yang quickly responded, "Master Tozaxi is blessed with great fortune, and thanks to your care, Chief Steward, this trip has been quite smooth. Our goods have sold out quickly. With our princess's upcoming wedding to the Tibetan prince, a large influx of people has arrived in the Tibetan capital, attracting many caravans from far and wide. The number of merchants seeking to trade with us is far greater than usual. As a result, our purchases have increased compared to previous years, and this has also delayed our progress."
