Li Siyun sighed, "As an old man, I have moved around the Five Directions Gathering and now I find myself unable to leave this place. I've always wanted to repay the kindness of that knight from my younger days. Over the years, I've been preparing a gift but always felt something was missing. Now in my sixties, I'm no longer up for long journeys.
"I really wanted to deliver this gift personally to my benefactor, but unfortunately, I'm not capable.
"Thus, I implore Lord Su, the Chief of the Escort, to deliver this item to my benefactor from those days."
While he spoke, he took out two silver notes from the box, totaling two hundred taels of silver, and placed them on the table: "This is the escort fee for Lord Su, the Chief of the Escort. What do you think?"
Su Mo understood why the old man was so forthright.
By opening the item there, it was as if he was validating the escort job.
