In the past few days, the Guanzhou Mansion can be said to be much more deserted than the day they first entered the city, which is not surprising, after all, everyone is afraid of death.

This is also due to the fact that the news of the plague in other places has not yet arrived, otherwise it would definitely be even more deserted than it is now.

However, after going out, I could still hear a lot of people talking about it, Lin He listened carefully, most of them were discussing, there has been no caravan to irrigate the state capital recently, and the goods in the city are much less than before.

There are many smart people, and many people wonder if there is a plague elsewhere, but they are lucky.

After all, Yongfeng Commercial Bank is all over the country, and almost everyone with a little common sense knows that there is no reason to just come to Guanzhou.

After all, Guanzhou Mansion is not a border fortress, and it is not a rich place, and it can even be said to be a relatively poor place.

The only thing that can be seen is probably only if something really happens, and the imperial court probably won't be so quick to channel a 'merit' here.

There were quite a few people who speculated like this, and as a result, everyone quickly became sympathetic to those who had left before.

There was no news from outside, and there were no new cargo ships coming from the wharf, and the inconvenient communication caused everyone to think that it was hell outside, and Guanzhou Mansion was the only peaceful holy place.

From where they lived to the gate of the city, in less than a cup of tea, Lin He heard a lot of similar discussions.

Although you can't get the exact news, your guess is accurate.

But now it shouldn't be as serious as everyone said, after all, it was discovered in time, and the control was timely, and now it should be in the recovery period, and it won't be long before the commercial exchanges between the cities can resume.

The two of them were not hindered too much from leaving the city, and at most they only checked their directions.

Li Changhui is the one who helped the Guanzhou Mansion avoid the disaster this time, and not many people know about this matter, let alone a few people know about it, so it is naturally extra convenient to go out of the city.

At this time, it was already May, the sun was shining, and the carriage had been walking in the sun for a while, and it was still a little hot.

Looking for the aurora, naturally it is not aimless, when he went out of the city, Li Changhui took out a small whistle.

Be prepared to go a little farther and blow the whistle directly, and as long as the aurora is nearby, you can come by yourself.

The whistle is made of a special material, and the sound of the blow is inaudible, but the animal can hear it.

Lin He proposed: "It's better to go to the dock and have a look, it's still early today anyway." ”

Li Changhui, who was about to stop the carriage, regained his strength, and the horse changed directions and continued to move forward, and threw the whistle to Li Hao on the side.

"Blow for a while, if you hear the aurora, it will come."

"Okay Daddy." Li Hao took the whistle in surprise and sat on the other side of the carriage, and Li An also came up.

Li Changhui had taught them how to blow this whistle before, but they didn't usually use it, so they hadn't tried it yet.

Lin He moved a little to Li Changhui's side: "Brother Hui, according to your estimate, when is it more appropriate for us to leave?" ”

Now their only contact with the outside world is the firm of Jinrong.

But others don't know the relationship between Li Changhui and Jin Rong, and the only thing that can make them believe a little bit is that Steward Wang took Li Hao and Li An to live in Guanzhou Mansion for a period of time and met Shopkeeper Liu.

If this is not the case, I am afraid that even if they find Shopkeeper Liu, people will only think that they are liars from nowhere.

Li Changhui was not in a hurry this time: "Let's stay in Guanzhou Mansion first, and wait for the caravan outside to recover and bring more news." ”

Lin He nodded: "It's really the only way to go." ”

In the past, the prefect occasionally told Li Changhui some news, but now that Li Changhui has received the reward he deserves, it is difficult to see the prefect again, let alone inquire about the news.

Not to mention Shopkeeper Liu's side, if Li An is older, pretend to be someone under Steward Wang, and take advantage of Steward Wang's absence in Guanzhou Mansion during this time, he can still fool around and get a little information.

It's a pity that Ang Lee is too young and still a child, so he can't believe that he is such a small guy as he can have any real skills.

I was still worried that something would really happen, and I wanted to suppress the opponent a little bit, so I sent someone to monitor it.

Now, the news from the outside will definitely not tell them more.

Thinking of this, Lin He sighed: "This information blockage is too uncomfortable, I don't know anything outside, my eyes are black, like a blind man." ”

Li Changhui didn't care at all: "Don't worry, maybe when we go back, there will be news from the outside soon." ”

Lin He was skeptical, fortunately, he didn't have to have any news, it really didn't work, so he stayed in Guanzhou Mansion for a while longer, and he should rest.

While chatting, the carriage soon followed the road and reached the vicinity of the dock.

You can see the pier from afar, and there are some residents nearby, and a few small fishing boats, but you can't see the real big boats.

According to Lin He's understanding in the past few days, the cargo ship transported by the river is like a three-story house, with a floor in the cabin, which is specially stacked for goods and lived with the crew.

There are also two floors on the deck, the first floor is generally a place for ordinary people to live, the second floor is a place for wealthy people, and some even ships have kabuki for entertainment.

When he heard this, Lin He knew that the shipping in this world was very developed, and there were two or three stories of big ships on the river, and he didn't know how big the ships on the sea were.

Unfortunately, at this time, for other reasons, there was nothing on the river except a few small fishing boats, and it was empty, except for the tall docks, which could prove that there should have been huge cargo ships here.

However, there was no big boat, but the Grand Canal saw it, and Lin He was shocked when he saw the wide river in front of him.

The river was turbulent, but on the side of the pier, a section of the upstream mountain range stretched out, blocking all the rushing river, leaving a calm bay for boats to dock calmly.

Li Changhui did not take a few people closer, but drove the car to a higher hill near the wharf, where the entire wharf could be seen, as well as some nearby residents.

The riverside residents didn't come looking for them.

Everyone is not stupid, these people know at a glance that they are from Guanzhou Mansion, in case they bring something with them, Lin He and them are the same, anyway, they are each avoiding it and less contact with strangers.

Several people got down from the carriage and enjoyed the magnificent river scenery on the hillside, until Li Hao frowned and came to his father's side.

"Dad, I've been blowing for a long time, but the aurora hasn't moved, is it that I didn't learn it right, why didn't I react at all?" (End of chapter)
