Chapter 36 What is this for? Acquiring locusts

Chapter 36

"Mom is fine, why are you doing here? Do you have something to discuss with Mom?"

"Mom, I have an idea about this locust plague." Yang Qian nodded and gave his own answer.

Soon, Uncle Song, the housekeeper, and Manager Chen, rushed to the front hall and put their expectant eyes on Yang Qian.

The eldest son Yang Qian has brought them surprises and miracles again and again, and they also look forward to Yang Qian being able to resolve the locust plague.

"I want to buy locusts from those people to make food."

The corners of the eyes of the housekeeper Song and the Manager Chen stood up, staring at Yang Qian in amazement, without reacting for a long time. That was the same as when Han heard this idea just now.

Yang Qian glanced at his mother Han again, and his mother Han quickly patted Yang Qian's hand and said softly. "It's okay, everyone thought they didn't react for a while. They would support you like their mother."

Manager Chen took a deep breath, bowed deeply to Yang Qian and said, "Young Master, you are indeed a compassionate person.

In order for those people to survive after the locust plague, I tried to think of a reason to give it to the people with money."

"Madam, what do you think?" Uncle Song, the housekeeper, nodded slightly to Yang Qian, and his eyes fell on Han's body.

Han looked at his son in front of him with a smile and appreciation. "Of course I am standing on Dalang's side. If he is willing to do this, it is of course good..."

"Mom..." Yang Qian looked at the mother who did not understand her behavior very much, but still trusted her without reservation. She felt a slight pain in the softest part of her heart.

Uncle Song, the butler nodded heavily and replied.

"I also think this method is good, and the wife also agrees with the young master's strategy. Then we will naturally follow the young master's instructions..."

"Then, let's take out three hundred guan from the mansion and hand it over to Dalang, and ask him to buy locusts. If it is not enough in the future..."

Yang Qian quickly shook his head. "Mom, don't be like this, there are still about 200 knots here."

"But that was what my mother bought for you for the fragments of "The Legend of Gongyang in the Spring and Autumn Period", so it's better for you to keep it." Mother Han advised.

Yang Qian slapped his forehead and then saved him from the busy discussion of the locust plague yesterday, but forgot to explain it to his mother. So he told the Zheng brothers that celebrated their mother's 60th birthday and wanted to save and buy this item.

After hearing this, his mother Han nodded suddenly and realized the truth. Not only did she not feel displeased, she smiled with relief.

"My son did a great job. Although our family lacked a collection of a fragment, it fully possessed the Zheng brothers' filial piety to their mother."

Seeing that his mother was not blamed, Yang Qian was relieved. In the end, Han asked the butler Song to take out a hundred coins from the mansion and hand them over to Yang Qian, and asked him to buy locusts from the people.

After agreeing on this matter, Yang Qian left the front hall, headed towards his courtyard, and stepped into his courtyard. Only then did Yang Qian feel reminiscent.

Hey, it seems that everyone praises and praises for their behavior of purchasing locusts, but why no one asks about the delicious food they make?

"Young master, let's go, let's go back first to make up for sleepiness. The villain is almost sleepy..." Zhili almost hit Yang Qian who suddenly stopped.

"Why didn't anyone ask me what the dishes made from locusts taste like?" Yang Qian looked at Zhili.

"Haha, the little man really can't hold on and go to bed first. You guys, go and rest..." Zhili did not answer, but turned around mercilessly.

Yang Qian was completely in a bad mood, he really was a husky. Forget it, since ancient times, when sages were not able to understand their behavior, they would probably be regarded as crazy by others.

Wait, wait for the fried locusts, fried locusts, and locust sauce you will be looking at me with admiration. At that time, I will only leave you a handsome and noble back.

But now, Yang Qian needs to do one thing, sleep and have a good night's sleep.

The magistrate of Xu County, Xu County Chief, and other officials in Xingze County were all frowning in the back hall, while the officers were waiting outside the hall, whispering in a low voice.

Just today, I have received bad news from the governor of Xingyang County. The locust plague will probably arrive in Xingyang County in a few days. Xingze County, located in the northeast of Xingyang County, is the first to bear the brunt.

"Flood, plague, now another locust plague has emerged. What is God trying to do? It's endless?" County Magistrate Xu couldn't help but slap the case heavily and said helplessly.

"Okay, now is not the time to complain. Now what we should consider is how to deal with this upcoming locust plague."

County Magistrate Xu glared at County Magistrate Xu, who was a little disobedient, glanced at the officials present, and ordered in a deep voice.

A year-old official stroking his long and gray beard, helpless and authentic.

"Once this locust plague occurs, at most, it is only possible to call on the people to arrest more and burn all the damn locusts to avoid causing trouble elsewhere."

"This year, I think this is the only way to do my best to mobilize more people to catch locusts." County Magistrate Xu also nodded in agreement, saying helplessly.

Outside the Junzi Lileek Restaurant, a citizen of Xingyang County who had just bought two leek boxes was looking at the leek box in his hand that he had bitten a lot.

"Oh, why am I so happy with this bite? After eating it for so many days, every time I pass by here and smell the leek box, I feel so hungry..."

"You can eat such delicious food, so don't eat it, I can give it to me." A commoner who was still queuing next to him swallowed and complained angrily.

"Hey, brother, look, what's it written on it..." Another person who was queuing up to buy leek boxes suddenly screamed.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way if you don't understand, let me see." An elderly scholar who had just been in the last rank of the team suddenly lit up and showed his identity as a scholar.

After rushing closer and seeing the notice from the gentleman leek restaurant, the elderly scholar was stunned.

"Hey, I said, what is that Young Master Yang going to do? He actually wants to buy locusts..."

"I said, sir, you're confused?"

"That's right, why buy that thing? It's just some insects that hurt people. It's a waste of firewood when burned."

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm very smart. It's clearly written on it..."

Manager Chen walked out of the restaurant at this time and announced in a loud voice.

"This old man is right. From now on, we gentleman leek restaurants will purchase locusts from all the fellow villagers in Xingyang County.

As for the price, it costs two cents per pound, and you can buy it at a pound. No matter whether you bring one pound or one thousand pounds, it is two cents per pound."
