According to Gao Yicheng himself, he retired from the army and has a slight limp. A fellow officer from his hometown felt sorry for him and arranged this job for him.
When Qin Yao and her group camped near the post station, the new posthouse manager even lent them the kitchen to use; he was a very warm-hearted person.
Before leaving the Bamboo Forest Post Station, Qin Yao completed a small transaction with the new posthouse manager.
Since the caravan would continue traveling on this route in the future, she hoped the team members could have a safe resting point.
So they reached a verbal agreement with the new posthouse manager: whenever the caravan arrived at the post station, if no officials were residing there, they could let the caravan rest for a night or borrow the kitchen, or have some hot water, for convenience.
Qin Yao was willing to pay a hundred cents per month, delivered privately to the posthouse manager.
