Chapter 1578: Transporting Food and Grass
I suddenly gained an aspect with self-awareness. Is this rare among gods?
Rare, but not unheard of.
For example, Shar, Lady of the Night, once devoured the priesthood of the Phantom Goddess, but she did not dissolve the Church of the Phantom Goddess, but continued to accept worship from believers in the name of the Phantom Goddess.
This will only lead to two results, either the Phantom Goddess will be reborn, or the borrowed vest will have a certain degree of self-awareness.
Why Lady Dark Night did this, I am afraid only this secretive goddess herself knows, but this is not a big problem for God.
Just like the analogy just mentioned, it is just equivalent to someone using Li Chengqi's identity information to open an additional bank account. And because it is his information, he can easily take over the additional account.
Moreover, Talona said that in this case, as long as you do not give up the priesthood, the additional account cannot turn against customers, and it may even instinctively seek to integrate with you.
Talona is so clear not because she has done this kind of operation, but because she is one of the slave gods serving Shar, the Lady of the Night. She contributed to the example just now, so of course it is clear.
Eilistraee didn't know much about this, but she knew something about Cronus, not much, but it was enough for reference.
After all, when Cronus was the God of Time, these three goddesses were still in a liquid state, and they didn't exist at all.
As for Adas...
She only recognized that the stone ball was an artifact, but she knew nothing else.
Nonsense, I also know it is an artifact, but the question is what does this thing have to do with the priesthood of time!
You will definitely not get the answer if you ask. The situation between gods is different. Things about other gods can only be used as a reference. You have to explore the specifics yourself.
Li Chengqi had no choice but to stuff the stone ball into the drawer of the computer desk. In short, let's do this for now.
After chatting for a while, the three goddesses went back to the house to put down their luggage and go about their own business. Li Chengqi also sat back in the space capsule and turned on the computer.
The first thing that caught my eye was the scene of pouring rain, and the picture displayed on the screen looked white.
Yang Yiyi and Wu Shaoyi leaned against the city wall, one wearing a raincoat and the other holding an oil-paper umbrella, watching the rain in a sickly way.
Originally, according to the itinerary, they should spend the night in another town yesterday, but it was only noon when they arrived there. Yang Yiyi felt that with her own foot power, she should be able to reach the next city before dark.
So they didn't stop as planned, but ran all the way.
As expected, the city gate was closed when the two arrived.
Once the city gate is closed, it will not be opened again until the specified time. Unless there is an emergency military situation, the door will not be opened to anyone who calls. As a result, Yang Yiyi and Wu Shaoyi had no choice but to temporarily sleep in the woods outside the city.
Then there was a leak in the house and it rained all night. As soon as the bonfire was raised, the downpour started.
This is why Li Chengqi made a habit of taking a look before going to bed and sent the tent to him. Otherwise, the two girls would have been soaked in the heavy rain all night.
–‐‐——–‐‐——
The rain seems to be endless, which is actually normal. It is summer here, which happens to be the most rainy time of the year.
The city gate would open at sunrise, regardless of whether it rained or not. After squatting under the city wall for a while, the city gate finally opened, and the two of them entered the city smoothly.
Although they managed to spend one night in a tent, the rest of the journey would be much easier because they would need to wait here for the boat to head north.
When you go further north, you will reach Lingzhou. After passing Lingzhou, you will reach Yanzhou. After passing Yanzhou, you will reach Beidi.
That's what they say, but at their current speed, it will take several months to arrive.
So the rest of the journey is basically by boat, so there’s no need to rush.
Since it was still early and there were not many people on the street, the two quickly found an inn that was already open for business.
It's a good thing to have a tent so you don't have to get wet in the rain, but it's also uncomfortable to sleep on. Find an inn to rest first.
Many people have already started to have breakfast in the inn. Most of them are travelers coming from north to south. Most of the seats in the inn are occupied. They are half full and the business is passing by. Yang Yiyi and Wu Shaoyi ordered some side dishes and steamed buns, but what was different from usual was that they asked the waiter to boil a pot of wine.
Although it is summer, it rains heavily and is very cold.
Fortunately, Yang Yiyi said that Wu Shaoyi's legs, which were just getting better, should not catch cold. He could drink some warm wine to dispel the cold.
"Take it easy, ladies, your wine will be here shortly."
The side dishes and steamed buns are all ready-made, so they are naturally very quick.
Yang Yiyi had been hungry for a long time, so she grabbed the steamed bun and ate it. Wu Shaoyi took a small bite of the steamed bun and listened carefully to the voices of the people around her, wanting to hear if there were any rumors or the like.
After five or six minutes like this, the number of diners in the lobby changed.
At this time, someone walked in, and when he looked up, he saw Wu Shaoyi and Yang Yiyi not far from the door.
"Yang Nu Xia Wu Xia, why are you two here?"
Yang Yiyi was in high spirits when she heard this and looked up:
"Miss Tang?"
It was Tang Lianyu.
She was accompanied by two maids as usual, but what was different from usual was that there were seven or eight guards behind her.
Yang Yiyi enthusiastically invited Tang Lianyu to sit down and have something to eat together. The guards behind him looked at each other and sat down at a nearby table.
"Didn't the two heroines return to Nanshan City?"
"I heard that the north was in urgent need, so we naturally couldn't sit idly by and help the government troops."
"I see."
"Why did Miss Tang come here?"
Tang Lianyu lowered her voice slightly and said:
"To be honest, my Tangfeng Company is helping the officers and soldiers fighting in the north to transport food and supplies."
War is actually about logistics. No matter how capable the soldiers are, they can't do anything if the logistics are not up.
The other eight countries in the ten countries in the Central Plains are acting as nurses, but how to send these supplies is also a big problem.
Tangfeng Company volunteered to express its willingness to help.
This move is quite smart.
Although the ten countries in the Central Plains can reach a consensus on fighting against people outside the pass, there are ten countries after all. If the supplies are transported at the border, it will cause a lot of waste and serious delays.
But if it goes directly, the people who transport these supplies don't know the geological and hydrological conditions of other countries, so it is very difficult to transport them. It's good not to take a detour, but it can't be fast.
Tangfeng Trading Company has businesses in the ten countries of the Central Plains. They know exactly which roads are faster and closer from south to north.
It can be said that as long as the materials are on the ship of Tangfeng Trading Company, they can be sent to the front line at the fastest speed.
Tangfeng Trading Company only charged the cost price and did not take this opportunity to make a fortune. What they wanted was to take the opportunity to gain a group of connections.
It doesn't matter whether they make money or not. The money that Tangfeng Trading Company has made now is more than they can spend in several lifetimes. What they want more is stability.
So Tang Lianyu started to be busy during this period.
