However the sentence

Is also correct "Mr A staying back and asking Mr B to take the package with him"

The difference between 'bring' and 'take' has to do with the location of the speaker. If he is at the post office, he should say "bring it [to me] at the post office." If he is not at the post office, he should say, "take it to the post office."
