"Once that batch of gold and jewelry arrives in your Pengshui City, you will take it for yourself."
"Gold and other valuables are like dirt in the face of natural disasters, but natural disasters will eventually pass."
"Gold is gold. It will be valuable sooner or later."
"We're using a lot of gold in exchange for some water and food. It doesn't seem like you're losing out."
"After the natural disaster is over, those gold and jewelry may become the bargaining chips for the rise of your Tan family army..."
“But now it’s a natural disaster.”
Wei Guang interrupted Conway, "If we take Tianshui City, won't all that gold and jewelry belong to us?"
Conway raised his eyebrows. "Do you think our Tianshui City is as easy to defeat as Pengshi City?"
Wei Guang glared, "Then I won't do business with you."
"Not only did you not come to help, but you also shot me with arrows. How could you do that?"
"If we hadn't defended Pengshui City, you would be in trouble now."
"Humph." Conway snorted coldly.
“The danger of Pengshui City is your own business.
"We in Tianshui City have our own considerations. How could we send out troops casually?"
"As for shooting you, that was a misunderstanding."
"If you hadn't yelled and cursed in front of the city gate, without provoking us, why would our army have shot you?"
"You're not helping someone in need and yet you're still making excuses!" Wei Guang glared at him.
"We fought bravely to protect the people, and you just sat back and watched. Do you think you're right?"
"Tianshui City is also facing many difficulties, so we cannot send troops lightly." Conway said confidently.
"The Daliang army's attack on your Pengshui City has nothing to do with our city. It is unfair for them to blame us now."
"With the natural disaster, the imperial court corrupt and incompetent, and the allied forces outside, our two cities should not blame each other, but help each other."
Conway looked at Tan Junyan and said, "General Tan, the situation is difficult right now. It's not that we in Tianshui City don't want to help, but we simply have many concerns."
"Not to mention that our city has limited military strength. If we rashly send troops, we may be counterattacked by the enemy, endangering the safety of our people."
"Furthermore, supplies are scarce now, and sending troops requires a large amount of food and supplies, which our city cannot afford."
"But we are by no means heartless. If the opportunity arises in the future, we will join hands with the General to fight the enemy together."
"I hope the general will understand the difficulties our city is facing and not damage the relationship between the two cities due to a momentary anger."
