Han Qi set out, and he proudly rode the carriage made by Izumo Temple. It was reported that there were many books and excellent tea in the carriage, and he was waiting to enjoy it on the way.

"There are locusts on Jingdong Road."

Before Chen An could enter the palace, Wang Rong sent the news.

"What a big locust plague"

Chen An’s impression of the locust plague is that the overwhelming locusts are locusts, and the farmers are slapping and cursing wildly, but to no avail.

"I don't know, but Hu Xicheng, you should know."

"Yeah." Chen An recalled, "At the time in Zhending Mansion, Hu Xicheng followed Han Qi to prepare a coffin for himself and prepared to carry it to fight. His courage is commendable and his loyalty is expressive, but he doesn't understand the battle formation and he can command blindly but he is okay."

"He is quite safe in doing things. Generally, if this is not a big deal, he will not report it carefully. Therefore, I thought that there were some signs of something wrong with the locust plague on Jingdong Road."

Wang Rong was cruel, but at this moment he was also worried, "I heard of the locust plagues in the past. Wherever there is a locust plague, there will be no harvest. The Song Dynasty is going to live some good days, so why does the locust plague come? Isn't God even able to see the Song Dynasty reverse?

He was a little sighing there, but Chen An was thinking about it.

"Come on ice water." Wang Rong was a little anxious, "God finally had a good weather for a few years, but now he has caused a locust plague. Is there another flood in history books? The Central Plains is really full of famines? Is this natural disaster or man-made disaster?"

"There are natural disasters, and man-made disasters." Chen An figured out some things and said, "Natural disasters are not scary. What is scary is man-made disasters. If the powerful and powerful people had more charitable hearts, they would not have turned into a major chaos that ruined the former Han Dynasty. Therefore, natural disasters are, but they are often accompanied by man-made disasters."

"Why did you start?" Wang Rong was a little depressed.

He is a very smart person, but he is a bit aggressive and always gets stubborn.

"Cause of greed"

Countless evidence shows that most of the man-made disasters are greed.

When you wait there, you can see all kinds of things.

"Han Qi went to Jingdong Road to take charge, I'm afraid he had to kill a few of them." Wang Rong said coldly: "You reminded someone, Brother An Bei, an official of the Song Dynasty, you should think more."

This guy is starting to get extreme again.

"I have some ideas about this matter." Chen An had already recalled Hu Xicheng. This person has a bit of a pedantic personality, but it is not that pedantic. Moreover, he is steady in his work, so this matter is probably not simple.

Small locust plagues will occur every few days in the Song Dynasty, and the localities do not take them seriously, only major disasters and disasters

Chen An recalled the news he saw in later generations. The locust plague like a sandstorm made people feel thirsty.

"I thought about it for a moment, and it will take a big locust plague every five or six years."

Zhao Xu is here, Su Shi is here, and Wang Yun, a small group of supercomputers, started.

Su Shi said: "Why do you want to check it out?"

"No need" Wang Rong looked at him with the look of looking at his teammates, "If a small locust plague is added, it will be once every two or three years in the Song Dynasty, and some locust plagues will last for several years, and disasters will continue."

He never doubted his memory, "In terms of time, the most happenings are May, June, July, and August, among which the most are summer and autumn."

It's a supercomputer indeed

Chen An recorded on the side.

"As for the region, Kaifeng Prefecture, Henan Prefecture"

Xiao Wang started to sign up for the dish.

Chen An stopped after recording a few places.

This is meaningless.

After Wang Rong reported to the local area, Chen An asked: "What method did the Song Dynasty use to destroy locusts in previous years?"

Wang Rong blurted out: "In previous years, they were burned or culled."

The method is too old-fashioned.

"Brother Anbei, do you have a solution?"

Wang Rong keenly felt Chen An's confidence.

"We have to see it now." Chen An was still calculating.

"Later, some people found that locusts would lay eggs in the ground and would become adults in the second year. So in the court, the local government would offer a reward for buying locust eggs. Generally, one liter of locust eggs is exchanged for three liters of rice and flour."

This is a good way to mobilize the masses, but it is afterwards.

What to do now

"Bianliang is very close to Jingdong Road. When Han Qi has news, the court will naturally respond." Zhao Xu said: "When I left the palace, the officials were still discussing disaster relief with the prime ministers."

After the locust plague, either the harvest is completely lost or the harvest is poor. If there is no relief from the court, it will be a scene of starving people everywhere.

"We can't do anything about this, we can only pay money and food." Su Shi looked solemn. Seeing everyone looking at him with curious eyes, he asked, "Why do you look at someone like this?"

"nothing"

Everyone didn't say it in a tacit understanding.

Everyone was surprised that Su Shi would not come up with bad ideas.

Has this person grown up again

Su Shi sighed, "I think I'm going to ask for a god or a Buddha."

whispering sound

Everyone turned their heads and discussed the matter on their own.

In the end, he felt helpless, so Zhao Xu said, "It can only be money to pay for it, and food to pay for it."

This is Su Shi's words. He secretly praised and said seriously: "Think about it, think about it again, maybe there is another way."

"Purchase ducks," Chen An said: "Buy all the ducks around you and leave them for the seeds."

"Why" everyone is puzzled.

"eat"

Chen An can't explain how much ducks can eat, but he has money

So the people of Bianliang once again saw the luxury of the Shen family.

Zhuang stood outside Yulin Lane. Everyone who knew the Shen family's habits came.

"If anyone has ducks at home, even if you go to the dark fragrance, it will be purchased at 20% higher than the market price. It is not limited to the quantity. Remember, it is not limited to the quantity, and you will get as much as you can."

The Shen family has collected ducks

The key is that the price is 20% higher than that on the market.

The people of Bianliang are quite affectionate about ducks and often appear in the recipes.

So Anxiang was instantly flooded by the duck.

Outside a duck collecting shop, several duck dealers who were driving a big cart arrived and were greetings between the two sides, someone shouted: "The fragrance of ducks is collected, the high market price is 20% and there is no limit."

Several duck dealers didn't believe it at first. After the troublemaker said it again, two of them bowed and said, "I'd better go and take a look at this matter first, haha, take a look."

The only one who left behind said disdainfully: "It's probably a cheering."

After he traded, he drove back in the empty car.

“Quick”

On the way, he met many people, some were carrying a few ducks, some were carrying cages, all of which were full of ducks, and some were driving a cart.

These people are the only one whereabouts, the faint fragrance.

"I lost it"

The duck dealer regretted his intestines, and he followed the faint fragrance with a hint of luck in his heart.

At this moment, Anxiang was blocked outside, and someone shouted: "Get out of the way."

A big cart came out, and the car was full of cages and croaking ducks inside.

"Wait, wait too much, go to Jingdong Road together." Some manager came out to arrange it, and everyone couldn't help but feel funny when they heard it, "This is to go to Jingdong Road to eat so many locusts, how can I finish eating it?"

But when big trucks loaded with ducks came out, their momentum gradually increased.

“So many”

"Everything is there, I said it's not limited to the quantity, don't squeeze it to help me."

There was finally a small accident in front of me, and a guy was pressed by more than ten people. Fortunately, the people behind me stopped in time, but even so, the guy lost half his life.

"Don't squeeze"

Wang Tiande came out and shouted: "I, Wang Tiande, Chen Longtu said personally that Anxiang bought ducks without limit, so don't squeeze out money, Anxiang doesn't have to shorten money, Anxiang doesn't have to shorten money, so how much does it cost?"

The next day, duck farmers around Bianliang rushed to the scene and turned Bianliang into a duck city.

The carts gathered continuously and then set off. At the same time, Chen An was also summoned to the palace.

"Why did you hear you took a lot of ducks?"

Zhao Shu asked very calmly, and Chen An said, "I am going to get the ducks to Jingdong Road to eliminate locusts."

"Ducks kill locusts"
