I traveled through time and became the Queen of Ancient Dian

The man who came was Shangguan Xingshang. He had been running all the way and his forehead was covered with sweat.

Without even taking a breath, he hurriedly reported, "Queen, Lady Baona, this is bad! Our ore and timber reserves are running low, and I'm afraid we won't be able to hold out for much longer!"

Baona's heart sank; the thing she was most worried about had happened.

Although the prosperity of trade brought wealth, it also accelerated the consumption of resources.

She immediately summoned Murong Shang Shang, Shangguan Xing Shang and Zhuge Guard to discuss countermeasures.

"We must replenish resources as soon as possible," Baona said firmly. "Mr. Murong, send people to other tribes immediately to negotiate and see if we can buy enough ore and timber."

Merchant Murong looked embarrassed. "Lord Baona, I've sent people there, but the other tribes are also facing resource shortages and are unwilling to sell to us."

"Then raise the purchase price!" Bao Na made a quick decision. "Even if it costs something, we must ensure the supply of resources."

Merchant Murong took his orders and left. Baona then turned to Guard Zhuge and said, "You will lead the guards and strengthen the protection of the caravan to ensure the safety and smooth flow of trade routes."

After making all the arrangements, Baona rushed to the Sima tribe without stopping and negotiated with the leader of the Sima tribe in person.

She knew that the Sima tribe had rich mineral resources and was the key to solving the resource problem.

The leader of the Sima tribe warmly welcomed Bao Na, but was very cautious about the resource transaction.

He said the tribe's resource reserves were small and could not be sold in large quantities.

Bao Na explained to him the benefits of trade with both reason and emotion, and promised to give the Sima tribe favorable trade conditions.

After some difficult negotiations, the leader of the Sima tribe finally gave in and agreed to provide a limited amount of ore.

However, when Baona was about to leave the Sima tribe, she met the customs officer Xiahou.

Customs officer Xiahou used various reasons to make things difficult for Baona, demanding that the tariff be raised, otherwise the caravan from the ancient Dian Kingdom would not be allowed to pass.

Baona suppressed her anger and argued with reason, but Customs Officer Xiahou refused to give in and his greedy eyes wandered over her.

"Unless..." Customs Officer Xiahou paused, a sinister smile on his face, "Unless Her Majesty the Queen comes in person."

The people of the ancient Dian Kingdom saw that the caravans were becoming fewer and fewer, and the goods in the market were becoming increasingly scarce, and panic spread like a plague.

Baona could feel the invisible pressure, like a huge rock pressing down on her, making it hard for her to breathe.

Shangguan Xingshang's face no longer had its usual cleverness, replaced by deep worry; Murong the merchant was even more frowned, his clever calculations could not bring about any turning point; even Zhuge the guard, who was always loyal and brave, had a bit more confusion in his eyes.

Baona stood alone on the high platform of the palace, looking out at the rolling hills.

The setting sun dyed the sky blood red, as if foreshadowing the impending crisis of the ancient Dian Kingdom.

She clenched her fists and pondered over the solution in her mind.

Do we really have to compromise with Customs Officer Xiahou?

No, she would never let the ancient Dian Kingdom be controlled by others!

A bold idea gradually took shape in Baona's mind.

She immediately summoned the leaders of all tribes to gather in the ancient Dian royal palace.

When she laid out the "resource sharing plan" in full, the originally noisy hall suddenly fell silent.

Everyone's eyes were focused on her, with surprise, suspicion, and expectation.

Baona took a deep breath, her tone firm and powerful. "I know this plan is fraught with challenges for everyone. But we are facing a common crisis, and only by uniting together can we overcome it! I promise that in future trade, all tribes participating in the resource-sharing plan will receive greater rewards!" She paused, then continued, "I have developed a detailed resource utilization and allocation plan. Please review it."

Baona ordered people to distribute the plan that had been prepared long ago to the leaders of each tribe.

In the plan, she listed in detail the resource reserves of each tribe and how the resources would be distributed in the future.

She also promised to send professionals to help the tribes improve resource utilization efficiency and establish a fair and just resource trading platform.

Time passed minute by minute, and the hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

The leaders of each tribe studied the plan carefully, their brows furrowed, sometimes whispering to each other, sometimes lost in thought.

Finally, the leader of the Sima tribe took the lead in expressing his opinion: "I agree to join the resource sharing plan!" His voice was resounding, breaking the silence in the hall.

Soon after, other tribal leaders also expressed their agreement.

A huge stone fell from Baona's heart, and a relieved smile appeared on her face.

She knows that this is just the first step and there is still a long way to go, but she believes that as long as everyone works together, they will be able to overcome all difficulties!

At this moment, a guard hurried into the hall and reported in a panic: "Your Majesty, outside the palace... outside the palace..."

With the implementation of the resource sharing plan, the trade of the ancient Dian Kingdom was supported by sufficient resources, and the trade volume increased significantly, far exceeding the previously set target of 50%.

The entire ancient Dian Kingdom was prosperous. The market was full of goods, merchants gathered, and the people's faces were filled with happy smiles.

Baona became a hero of the ancient Dian Kingdom. Her name was widely praised among the people and people called her "the daughter of ancient Dian."

To celebrate this great victory, the Queen of Ancient Dian held a grand celebration for Baona in the palace.

The palace was brightly lit, with flowers of various colors competing for beauty and the fragrance filling the air.

The guests were dressed in gorgeous costumes and gathered together, with laughter and joy filling the air.

The queen was dressed in a long dress shining with gold and a jade crown on her head. She sat on the throne, her eyes filled with endless love and admiration.

The climax of the celebration was the Queen personally crowning Baona.

She walked slowly to Baona and gently placed an exquisite crown on her head.

This crown symbolizes supreme honor and trust.

The Queen's voice echoed throughout the hall: "Baona, you are not only my capable assistant, but also the pride of the Ancient Dian Kingdom. I hope you will continue to forge ahead courageously and lead Ancient Dian to an even more glorious future."

Liaona bowed slightly, her gratitude evident in words.

She raised her head and met the Queen's eyes, feeling a warm power surge in her heart.

Afterwards, the two began dancing together at the celebration amid the cheers of the crowd.

The music was melodious and the rhythm was cheerful. Baona snuggled tightly in the Queen's arms. Her figure was graceful and her eyes were full of happiness and admiration.

Every movement of the queens was full of grace, and their figures looked particularly beautiful under the lights.

As the dance ended, everyone in the hall gave a thunderous applause.

Baona looked at the queen and felt the deep affection between her and her.

She knew that this was not only her personal glory, but also a common victory for the ancient Dian Kingdom.

However, just as she was immersed in this wonderful moment, she suddenly heard a whisper from the crowd.

"Change of faith? How will this affect our future..." A voice whispered in her ear and stopped abruptly. The joy around her seemed to be instantly broken by this voice.
