"Friend, we're the Tian Family's convoy from Tianhuan City. Please, take this and treat your brothers to some tea..."
The Steward didn't want to blow things out of proportion. Seeing Gu Da and his men ignore the commoners walking past, he figured these bandits were only after money, not lives. So, he offered up the Silver he'd prepared in advance.
But when Gu Da heard "the Tian Family from Tianhuan City," his eyes lit up.
'This family is specially marked on the Boss's list! I can't believe I ran into them!'
The Steward's attitude was decent. He hadn't started cursing or acting arrogant right off the bat. If he hadn't announced his family name, or if this had been a different family's convoy, they would've just snatched a few things and left. Even bandits have some morals, you know.
Now that the Steward had announced his family name... well, tough luck. If they let this convoy pass, they'd be the ones in deep trouble.
