"It is indeed similar to our prescription. Could it be that our prescription has been leaked?"
She put down the medicine and asked suspiciously.
The steward shook his head.
"As far as I know, no. After Hall Master Xie disappeared, according to your instructions, both the raw materials and the doctors were more closely protected.
These prescriptions are of the utmost importance. I have never heard of the leakage of the prescriptions. "
She also received such news. But in that case, what was the matter with this prescription?
Once the secret medicine was launched, it was hyped up to a sky-high price in the ghost market. So these days, many people wanted to inquire about the news of the prescription.
However, the strength of the Dragon-subduing Hall and Lin Mengya was very strong, coupled with many means, it dispelled many people's thoughts.
"I received the news that everyone suspected that maybe it was Hall Master Xie who leaked the secret prescription."
The steward's words were a little hesitant.
These people had cooperated with the Dragon-subduing Hall.
Every time they wanted to open up a new place, the brothers of the Dragon-subduing Hall would first inquire about the news for them. Then, after they settled in, these people would help them stabilize the situation and dredge up the local forces.
Because of the cooperation, the big chamber of commerce and the Dragon-subduing Hall were inseparable.
If the secret prescription was really leaked by Xie Han, then he would hurt the friendship between the two brothers.
Lin Mengya pondered for a while.
"Xie Han is not a brainless person. Even if he really wanted to sell my prescription, he would never choose such a stupid and ostentatious way."
The steward nodded and said, "We all think so, but maybe Hall Master Xie has some difficulties?"
"What do you mean?"
The steward said in a low voice, "After these secret medicines came out, the brothers of the Dragon-subduing Hall were constantly harassed by those people.
We all think that they must have been instructed by someone to be so bold as to go against the Dragon-subduing Hall.
But in terms of the current reputation and status of the Dragon-subduing Hall, aren't they courting their own destruction by doing so? "
"You want to say that maybe Xie Han deliberately misled them and wanted to pass some news in this way."
The steward replied, "That's right."
It was not impossible to think about it.
Xie Han was an intelligence dealer. Although he did not know who had kidnapped him, he would definitely contact them in various ways.
If he was strictly guarded and had no way to communicate with the outside world.
In that case, he would pretend to side with the other party and sell some unimportant information to gain the other party's trust.
She encouraged those people to deal with the Dragon-subduing Hall, and then gave them the secret medicine formula that only she and Xie Han knew, letting them compete with the Dragon-subduing Hall for business.
Wasn't this clearly telling the Dragon Subduing Hall brothers that he was in their hands?
Thinking of this possibility, Lin Mengya could not help but feel excited.
"I knew that nothing could trap him. Immediately pass down the order and tell the brothers of the Dragon Subduing Hall that since they want to fight, then fight with them."
The steward immediately agreed.
For Xie Han to be able to persuade the other party to do such a thing, he must have grasped the other party's mentality.
However, a faction that could secretly take him away and avoid all of his investigations would not be so easily incited.
Therefore, she had to ensure Xie Han's safety.
Then she would have to act as she should.
The harder she fought back, the more realistic this scene would be, and the more Xie Han's safety would be guaranteed.
At that time, she would be able to track him down and rescue him.
She didn't expect that the matter that she had been investigating for so long would take a turn for the better. This might be a good sign for her.
After staying here for a few more days, good news came from Master Huo.
They had confiscated all the original materials of Shuangya Mountain, and in a cave at the back of the mountain, they had found a lot of iron ore that had just been collected and had not been transported out in time.
Although the fine iron ore was good, due to the current technology, the cost and difficulty of mining it were relatively high.
According to Lin Mengya and the others' original expectations, they would need at least a few months to make the fine iron ore of Shangya Mountain fully functional.
Not to mention anything else, the workers were a big problem.
Now, those iron ore mines could make up for the empty window period of these few months.
As for the workers who dug the iron ore, Lin Mengya chose to openly recruit them from the surrounding towns.
The risk of doing what Dong Xiaolian did was actually greater. Instead of making this fine iron mine a nightmare for the miners, it was better to make it a benefit for the residents of the surrounding towns.
If everyone had a stable job and could eat their fill, who would want to be a bandit?
In this way, not only would the labor problem of the iron mine be solved, but Master Huo's reputation in the surrounding towns would also be greatly improved.
Now, whenever they mentioned Master Huo, they would give him a thumbs-up. They were just short of offering him three incense sticks a day.
Master Huo was not very used to this.
However, Lin Mengya felt that this was quite good.
Lin Mengya was naturally happy to accept Master Huo's invitation.
It was rare that Long Tianhao didn't come along, so she only brought Cai Ru along.
But this time, Master Huo didn't bring her to the mountain village.
"Where are we going?" Lin Mengya asked curiously.
They were surrounded by farmland, and there were many houses in front of them. It looked like a farm.
Master Huo looked a little relaxed.
"I'll bring you to see the people you rescued."
"You mean, your companions?"
He nodded and pointed to the front.
"I bought this place a few years ago, bit by bit."
His eyes were full of nostalgia.
"When I was young, I wanted to have a place like this, where we don't have to care about how others look at us. Our parents and children can live together freely."
She didn't want to pry into other people's privacy, but from Master Huo's experience with those people, it was obvious that they had suffered a lot.
"This is the natural order of the world. I've never thought that anyone is born with a noble bloodline."
Her words resonated with Master Huo.
"I think so too. They always say that we mix up their bloodlines, that our bloodline is inferior and not worthy of them.
But we are just like them. We are also human. We also have blood, tears, joy, anger, sorrow, and joy.
Why can they deprive all of our happiness for such a ridiculous reason? "
Perhaps they didn't realize that their thinking was going through a very important stage.
But she, who had been influenced by modern thinking and culture, felt that this was a good sign.
"That's why we have to fight against this unfair fate. Don't worry, I'll help you do it together."
Master Huo smiled at her gratefully.
"Thank you, but it's a great kindness to me that you can save them.
Miss Song, I know that you are people who do great things. But if I can be of use, I'll definitely repay you with my life! "
Lin Mengya smiled and waved her hand. "Don't be so serious. Human life is too precious. Everyone only has one life. No matter who it is, no matter what the reason is, and no matter what the matter is, the most important thing is to live well."
Master Huo said, "Sometimes I'm really curious about where you grew up, Miss Song.
Why are your thoughts and words always so different? If it's possible, I'd really like to see it. "
Compared to the past, Master Huo was more like an ordinary young man today.
Lin Mengya also liked this kind of relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. She pursed her lips and smiled secretly. "I'd like to take you to see it, but it's a pity that not everyone can go there."
Master Huo's eyes lit up.
"If there's a chance, please take me with you!"
"Okay."
She agreed without any burden on her shoulders.
Anyway, if there were no accidents, she would never be able to return to the modern society in this lifetime.
Rather than firmly denying it, it was better to leave a good memory for others.
As they spoke, they arrived in front of the houses.
There were at least a thousand people rescued. The old, the weak, the sick and the disabled accounted for nearly a third of them. The rest of the people were responsible for taking care of these people.
About a quarter of the people were young and strong. Now, this group of people was rushing to build houses.
Although they were thin and weak, they still had some strength because they worked in the iron mine all year round.
But they still couldn't believe it. They felt like they were in a dream.
Lin Mengya looked around.
These people would be fine. They would definitely have a better life.
Someone saw Master Huo and immediately rushed up to greet them.
Master Huo smiled and nodded to the person, then introduced her to the crowd.
"Everyone, this is Miss Song, who helped me save all of you!"
Some people knew her, and some had heard of her.
Especially the parents of the children, they were even more grateful to her.
In an instant, she was surrounded by a group of little turnips.
"Sister, sister, thank you for saving us from the hands of the bad people."
"Sister, sister, thank you for saving us from the hands of the bad people."
Although they had suffered a lot, these children's recovery ability was very strong.
Lin Mengya touched the children's heads.
These little guys were only seven or eight years old, and the youngest was even younger than the two in her family.
She picked up a little girl and squeezed her soft little hand. She only felt that her heart was immediately healed.
"How old are you this year? What's your name? "
The little girl blinked her big watery eyes and said sweetly, "My name is Bao 'er. I'm four years old this year."
"Tell me, do you like it here?"
She looked at the little girl's innocent face and realized more deeply why Master Huo would risk his life for them.
The little girl was very bold and hugged her neck.
"I like it here! No one beats us here, and we can also eat. "
