It was probably to fully prepare for the arrival of the merchant convoy, which was expected to arrive in a few days. For Strigol, which was currently unable to produce enough food to feed itself, the aid from Halian was a lifeline. They couldn't afford to neglect this, even if it meant sacrifices to other districts of the city.
