"What's the matter?" A slightly older beggar looked up. He seemed to be the leader among them. He stuffed the unfinished sugar cake into his arms, and his animal-like eyes showed a trace of vigilance: "We don't steal things!"

Lin Shuning chuckled: "Don't worry, I just want you to help me publicize something, the more people know the better."

The leading little beggar stared at Lin Shuning's eyes for a while, then nodded in agreement.

Lin Shuning smiled even more. After explaining everything, she and Lian'er went to Liufang Hall.

Liufangtang is already overcrowded. There are too many medical clinics that sell inferior products as good ones. There are only a few that can stick to their original intentions in the entire capital. Naturally, more people come to buy medicine.

Liuzi was so tired that his face was red and sweaty, but he was never idle. He trotted over to Lin Shuning and said happily, "Manager Lin, I heard from others that those bastard managers have been arrested and are said to be in jail for a year! They really deserve it!"

Lin Shuning smiled faintly, took out the prepared medicine bottles, and handed them to Liuzi: "Put these bottles of medicine in the most conspicuous place on the counter, and find a piece of wood and write on it 'New medicine, special price, 20 taels per bottle, refund if not effective within two days'. The medicine in here mainly treats three symptoms: cold, cough, and wound inflammation. Once you have written it, you can directly promote it."

It is not appropriate for her to show up in public given her current identity, so it is most appropriate to let Liuzi do it.

Liuzi took it and looked a little surprised: "Manager Lin, is this medicine so effective? Will anyone buy it for twenty taels of silver?"

"Of course," Lin Shuning smiled, "Different prices have different audiences, go ahead."

"Yes." Liuzi agreed and did what he was told.

Soon, Liuzi's loud voice rang out in the house: "Don't miss these bottles of medicine if you pass by. These bottles of medicine are the latest prescriptions developed by our store. They treat colds, coughs, and inflammations. They are guaranteed to be effective within two days. If they are not effective, we will refund your money. Each bottle only costs 20 taels of silver! Don't miss this opportunity! There are only nine bottles, and the supply is limited. Once they are sold out, they will be gone! There is only one in the whole capital!"

The noise in the clinic quieted down for a moment, and someone took the initiative to speak: "Is this medicine really so effective? Will it be effective within two days?"

"Of course!" Liuzi insisted, "My boss said that this medicine is for emergency use. It is absolutely effective!"

Although Liuzi spoke tough, he felt a little nervous inside. After all, a bottle of this medicine was too expensive, and he didn't believe that anyone would buy it.

At this time, the man who had just spoken spoke again: "I want to buy it. Give me two bottles of medicine for treating colds and coughs. My child is crying all night long because of his illness. My wife and I are really unable to sleep or eat. We can't bear to let our child suffer so much."

As he spoke, he took out forty taels of silver from his pocket, handed it to Liuzi, and put the two bottles of medicine into his pocket.

Liuzi was still in a daze, he couldn't believe that such an expensive medicine was actually sold. Suddenly, he felt a sharp edge behind him. He turned his head and saw Lin Shuning's sparkling eyes staring at him coldly. He suddenly remembered something and shouted to the outside: "Sir, you can only take one pill of this cold medicine once a day, and you can only drink half a cup of cough syrup every day. Just take them together after meals! Remember this!"

A response came from outside, and Liuzi finally felt relieved after confirming that the man had heard the instructions about taking the medicine.

Lin Shuning lowered her eyes. Normally, this medicine should be taken twice a day, but considering that the ancients had never been exposed to Western medicine since childhood and were worried that they would not be able to tolerate such a large dose, she reduced the number of times she took it.

But the effect shouldn't change much.

With the man's lead, many well-dressed customers came to buy the medicine one after another, and in the blink of an eye, only one bottle of cough syrup was left.

"There's only one bottle of cough syrup left. Anyone want it? There's only one bottle left. It'll be gone once it's sold out!"

Different from the initial state where he was loud but lacked confidence, Liuzi is now full of confidence. He holds the bottle and sells it with all his might at the top of his voice.

"I want!"

At this moment, a tall man walked in from outside. Lin Shuning looked closely and was a little surprised that the man turned out to be Yun Sheng.

He coughed a few times and handed over the money. Liuzi, with a gleam in his eyes, pressed the bottle into his hand and said, "Mr. Yun, take this medicine. You only need to take half a cap a day."

"Thank you. I would like to get another prescription according to the last one." Yun Sheng said again.

"Okay!" Liuzi picked up the herbs swiftly, wrapped them up and handed them to him: "Have a good time, Master Yun."

Yun Sheng nodded and got on the carriage carrying the medicine bag.

Liuzi ran to Lin Shuning's side happily, nodded and said, "Manager Lin, what do you think? I'm awesome, right? I sold all the medicine in just one hour!"

"Well done," Lin Shuning gave him an affirmative encouragement, then changed the subject and asked, "The man who just came, did he come to our clinic to get medicine before?"

"That's right. Master Yun Sheng is an old customer of ours. Manager Lin, didn't you save his wife? It's just a pity that the child is too noisy. I heard that Madam Yun has been in a lot of trouble recently."

Lin Shuning frowned slightly. The pregnancy-preserving medicine was very effective, so this shouldn't be the case.

She collected her thoughts and said, "Liu Zi, go ahead and do your work. I'll take the money from the herbs I just sold. I'm going to research and develop more."

Liuzi responded and went to work.

Lin Shuning put the silver into the space. It can be said that she had a good harvest today. She sold a total of 180 taels of silver. She gave 50 taels to Xiaobai for upgrading, and planned to keep the rest of the money for purchasing more goods.

Lin Shuning stared at the clinic for a while, then came to the entrance of the alley as agreed, gave the little beggars five taels of silver, and then walked to the Shangshu Mansion with Lian'er.

Along the way, all kinds of gossip about Zhou Yuan and Lin Rouan suddenly appeared and tried hard to get into Lin Shuning's ears. She was even a little annoyed.

However, this was exactly the effect she wanted. Lin Shuning's eyes flickered and the corners of her lips curled up.

Just now, she told the whole story of what happened in the Shangshu Mansion today. Of course, she did not forget to add some spice and asked the little beggars to help spread the news. Sure enough, the news spread very quickly.

Only when this matter became more and more serious, Lin Cheng could make up his mind to marry Lin Rouan to Zhou Yuan.

At this moment, all kinds of gossip about the Shangshu Mansion were already spreading in the streets. However, in a certain courtyard inside the Shangshu Mansion, there was no less noise, and there was a lot of "crackling and clanging" going on.

Since losing her virginity, Lin Rouan has refused to eat or drink all day, and vented all her anger on the furnishings in the house, smashing them to pieces.

Ear-piercing screams continued to come out from the house, the screams were filled with anger, despair, fear and madness, like a bloody knife, cutting the gloomy sky into pieces.

Wang looked at the mess on the ground, her heart aching as if cut by a knife. She rushed into the house and hugged the crazy Lin Rouan in her arms: "Rou'er, don't be afraid, it's mother, you listen to me, you listen to me!"

Lin Rouan was extremely sad: "What else is there to say! Didn't you tell me that you would definitely let me vent my anger, but what happened? I was the one who was humiliated, and I was also the one who got to marry into the Duke's Mansion! I was also the one who could never turn things around!"

She beat and scratched Wang like crazy, screaming in a hoarse voice: "Niao Niao is the maid you personally selected for me, but she drugged me and helped that bitch! I know, you and Lin Shuning are in cahoots!"

"You are all playing tricks on me, you are all playing tricks on me!" Lin Rouan broke away from Wang and sat on the ground, covering her ears with her hands and shaking her head frantically.

Wang was so heartbroken that she couldn't breathe. If it weren't for Nanny Song holding her from behind, she would have fallen to the ground.

Nanny Song couldn't bear to watch it anymore, and said earnestly, "Second Miss, how can you talk to Madam like that? Madam may not be any better off than you if something like this happens! Don't you feel how Madam has treated you over the years?"

"Madam Song, please stop talking. This matter is my fault. I am sorry to Rouer." Wang covered her face with her hands, tears streaming down from between her fingers.

Lin Rouan was slightly startled, then raised her eyes to look at Wang. The madness in her eyes gradually faded away, and her eyes became clear. She said helplessly: "Mom, that's not what I meant. I... I just hate it too much. We were all teased by that bitch Lin Shuning!"

"Don't be afraid, mother has already caught her!" Wang cried and hugged her in her arms, with a vicious look in her eyes: "Madam Song."
