Several people quickly found Shopkeeper Liu. Compared to yesterday, Shopkeeper Liu was much more respectful today.

"Thanks to Mrs. Li, if you hadn't warned me in time, something would have happened to our entire Guanzhou Prefecture."

Although the two guys sent to monitor Yongfeng Trading Company have not returned yet, shopkeeper Liu also knows the details of last night from other sources, and now he just feels scared.

Plague, that’s something that makes people’s hair stand on end even if they just hear the name!
Just a little bit, just a little bit close, the entire Guanzhou Prefecture was about to fall!

Lin He waved his hand: "Let's not talk about this for now. Have you sent the news back? There are also some nearby counties and prefectures. I'm afraid that Yongfeng Trading Company will not only attack Guanzhou Prefecture."

After all, Yongfeng Trading Company was one of the top trading firms in the Da'an Dynasty, with businesses under its name almost all over the country. If it really attacked other places, it might not be able to prevent them all.

For example, yesterday, didn't those two corpses enter the city openly?

If Lin He hadn't happened to meet him and be alert in advance, there's no telling what would have happened to Guanzhou Mansion!
Shopkeeper Liu was shocked and couldn't believe it: "What Mrs. Li means, are those people going to attack other places?"

Lin He was very calm: "If it were me, I would definitely cast a wide net. There will always be people who are not discovered."

This was a cruel thing to say, but it was true. Shopkeeper Liu reacted almost instantly.

By the way, everyone thought of using such a vicious method to attack the people of Da'an Dynasty, and they would definitely not be merciful and only attack one place.

They also don't know where the plague-infected corpses come from, and how many such corpses there are, and they can't find out. This matter still needs someone more capable to handle it.

Shopkeeper Liu made a decision quickly: "Don't worry, Mrs. Li, I will have people pass the news to colleagues in nearby cities right away."

"We have to tell the prefect that we can't see him. Shopkeeper Liu has to go and deal with this matter."

Although the prefect may have thought of this, he is not afraid of [-], but just in case. What if the prefect gets angry in a hurry and only focuses on solving problems in the city, forgetting to tell the county magistrates and prefects in other places to do a good job. What about prevention?

Shopkeeper Liu nodded: "Don't worry, Mrs. Li, I'll go find the prefect right away."

Shopkeeper Liu was busy. Lin He didn't want to wander outside any longer, so he quickly returned to the inn with a few children.

The streets today are much deserted than yesterday. The behavior of Yongfeng Trading Company last night has spread to almost the entire Guanzhou Prefecture.

Especially on the way back to the inn, I saw several shops surrounded by people throwing rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves. When I looked closer, I found that they were all branded with the Yongfeng Trading Company sign.

Lin He shook his head. These stores may be innocent, but Yongfeng Trading Company is obviously going to collapse. Based on what it has done, there is basically no reason for Yongfeng Trading Company to continue to exist.

And if Jinrong is fast enough, he might be able to take the lead and seize the market of Yongfeng Commercial Bank.

In this world, there is still no such thing as patents and copyrights. It is actually very easy to seize the market.

Many pedestrians on the road were discussing the affairs of Yongfeng Trading Company. When we returned to the inn, we saw many people queuing up to leave the city.

I think I was frightened by the almost poisoning incident, but in this situation, it is troublesome to leave the city. I must make sure that the people leaving have nothing to do with Yongfeng Trading Company, so as to avoid letting away the people who were missed by the trading company.

Lin He just looked at it from a distance and then went upstairs with a few children. Li Changhui was right. Even if he had a prescription, it was best not to run around.

Yesterday, Yongfeng Trading Company's carriage passed through countless places from entering the city to returning to their warehouse.Although the body was sealed by the coffin, it was not sealed after all, and I still felt a little uncomfortable. It was better to stay in the room.

As soon as the few people returned to the restaurant, the waiter greeted them.

"Mrs. Lin, just now an official specially sent medicinal powder and asked us to smoke it everywhere in the courtyard and room."

A big bag, probably about half a catty.

Lin He saw the waiter looking at the medicine bag enviously and knew what he was thinking.

"Shopkeeper, can you give me a piece of paper?"

The shopkeeper quickly took out a new piece of paper. Lin He found a table on the first floor and divided out one-third of the medicinal powder.

"You can take these and smoke everything in the inn. These should be enough for us."

It was impossible for Li Changhui to send just enough medicine, not to mention that it was already late when they changed rooms last night and they only found two adjacent small rooms. The powder in hand was enough.

"Thank you, Mrs. Li, thank you, Mrs. Li!"

The waiter and the shopkeeper laughed happily, and the guests eating downstairs were also very happy. Although the government officials and soldiers said it was nothing serious, it was a plague, and no one felt guilty.

With this medicinal powder, everyone feels much more at ease.

Lin He and others quickly went upstairs, and the waiter also brought two incense burners up. Lin He poured the medicinal powder into the incense burner, lit it with a fire stick, then placed it in the middle of the room, closed the doors and windows, and let the smoke of the medicinal powder fill the air. .

The smoke was a bit heavy and had a strong smell of herbs. Lin He only ordered one room first, and then they went to the next room to read together. After the smoke was almost gone, they changed to another room.

Other rooms were also smoked with medicinal powder, especially the lobby on the first floor. Only then did Lin He know that people who were on the same ship with Yongfeng Trading Company had eaten here yesterday. They were worried that those people might also be infected with the plague.

But by the time Lin He found out, all the people who were on the same boat with Yongfeng Trading Company yesterday had been caught together by the officers and soldiers. It was said that they were gathered together first, and then drank medicine for observation.

The earliest of these people had been following the Yongfeng Trading Company's ship for more than half a month, and the latest had been traveling for five or six days.

At the same time, these people gathered together so that the prefect could ask them about the specific situation of Yongfeng Trading Company.

But these were not things that Lin He could know. It was only when Li Changhui finally came back that he told Lin He something.

After all, he was the one who discovered and prevented the tragedy. He also came up with prescriptions for preventing the plague, including smoked and decoction medicines.

So even though Li Changhui is just an ordinary citizen, the prefect obviously respects and trusts him very much.

Although they were temporarily isolated in a safe place like Shopkeeper Liu's two clerks, the prefect also actively adopted some of Li Changhui's suggestions, and even asked Li Changhui if he had any other ideas.

In addition, Lin He and his children lived in the restaurant and received certain care, such as having officers and soldiers patrol the area to protect Li Changhui's wife and children.

For example, they first sent smoked and boiled herbs to Lin He and the others. (End of chapter)
