Chapter 38

"No need to be polite, please get up quickly..." County Magistrate Xu took two steps forward, picked up Yang Qian, his eyes turned, and fell on the notice.

Yang Qian invited these two people into the restaurant and went straight to the second floor. Manager Chen went to arrange tea and fruits.

"Although I am not a family friend of your father, I am also a minister in the same palace and have had a lot of dealings with you. It would be an exaggeration to call you a virtuous nephew, right?"

County Magistrate Xu smiled and said to Yang Qian, who was sitting in a dangerous position.

"This, then I'd better obey my orders than respect..." Yang Qian was not surprised by the show of goodwill by the County Magistrate Xu and County Magistrate Xu.

Because of himself, his father Yang Ning showed his face in front of the emperor. Now his position in the Ministry of Works has gone up to a higher level and he has become the chief official of the Head Office of the Ministry of Works, and he has already reached the fifth rank.

If you are released, it will be at least at the level of a county-level official. Even if it is not beneficial to them, it will at least not be harmful to them.

Seeing Yang Qian's appearance of being calm and unscathed, County Magistrate Xu was not surprised, but instead showed off his appearance as an elder and said with a smile.

"Today, a man came to report that the gentleman leek restaurant wanted to buy locusts. After hearing this news, I was thinking, could it be that my nephew had received some news or rumors?"

"Xu... Uncle Xu said very well. Qian had heard from his friend that the locust plague was raging to the north. I am afraid that the locust plague will arrive in my Xingze soon."

While talking, everyone smelled a scent of attractive appetite. Yang Qian took a deep breath and his eyes lit up.

It's good, it's just this taste. It seems that the seasonings given by the system are fine, and the chef is also doing his best. Fried locusts made the taste of a midnight snack stall.

If it weren't for taking into account his image, County Magistrate Xu almost wanted to shake his nose and go over the direction of the fragrance to see what was going on.

County Magistrate Xu also took a deep breath and touched his stomach. It was clearly not the fragrance of the leek box. Could it be that there was a restaurant next to the gentleman leek restaurant?

Seeing Yang Qian's suspicious eyes wandering between him and County Magistrate Xu, County Magistrate Xu, who seemed to realize that he had lost his composure, quickly nodded seriously.

"As a good nephew, indeed, is worthy of being the rare loyal and good soldier of Geng in Xingze. At a young age, he has begun to worry about the people's worries and care for the court."

"It's really rare. My nephew Yang's righteous act really makes me feel a lot. My nephew just do it boldly. If there is any difficulty, just come and find me."

County Magistrate Xu stroked his long beard and calmed down, and temporarily suppressed the greedy worm in his stomach.

"Of course, as the county magistrate of this county, I naturally cannot stand by and watch. With my nephew Yisheng, I can also follow the throne..."

Yang Qian was stunned, and the smile on his face gradually faded away. What does it mean? Is your government still trying to steal my Yang family's business?

"Although the money is not much, the disaster-stricken people can at least exchange their property for food and fill their stomachs."

"Why, do you think that it is inappropriate for the people of Xingze County to follow your good advice?" County Magistrate Xu couldn't help but smile when he saw Yang Qian's expression strange.

"Of course not. Qian just wanted to ask the two elders, and he didn't know what to do with the locust they acquired?"

When he heard Yang Qian’s question, County Magistrate Xu and County Prime Minister Xu smiled, and it was very natural to say.

"Of course, after killing, all the burning and throwing them away in the wild, and you can't buy them and then release them back to the countryside. Let them harm others again..."

Now, Yang Qian was a little anxious. Wouldn’t it be wasted the cooking collection of locust food he had worked hard to exchange for last night?

What's more, there will be locust plagues in the future. In this era, even in future generations, it will not be able to completely eradicate locust plagues.

However, the excellent Chinese nation relies on a mouth that can accommodate all things in the world to turn disasters such as locusts into food in the mouths of the general public.

Yang Qian took a deep breath and bowed to the two people seriously. "Two elders, Qian actually has two purposes for purchasing locusts.

First, it is to do its best to get rid of insect plagues; second, it is to use this locust to make delicious food."

County Magistrate Xu almost choked his saliva. County Magistrate Xu tilted the corners of his mouth and looked at Yang Qian blankly. After a while, he forced the corners of his mouth. "Don't joke with a good nephew..."

"Zhili, go down and take a look. If the things are ready, let them bring them up. Also remember to burn a pot of good wine. The two elders will wait a moment. Is Qian hilarious? I will know if Qian is joking?"

Yang Qian couldn't help it anymore. It was not just to let these two people see the real thing, but the important thing was that the scent of fried locusts had aroused his strong appetite.

After a while, I heard the footsteps of climbing the stairs, and the fragrance that made the magistrate Xu and the magistrate Xu saliva become more and more intense.

#####

"Two officials, this is a delicacy made according to the instructions of my son. Please ask the two officials to comment on it..." When Zhili spoke, saliva was secreting wildly.

"..." The smiles on the faces of County Magistrate Xu and County Magistrate Xu froze, and their eyes fell dullly on the large plate of fried locusts that were scented.

The two of them saw that the fried locust was actually put on a delicate food plate and they were almost crazy.

But at this moment, I suddenly heard Yang Qian's extremely magnetic and very tempting voice.

"Locusts, also known as grasshoppers, are pests in the fields. However, they are also rare delicacies and good medicine for curing diseases. In the "Shennong Bencao Jing" written by Ruan Xiaoxu of the Liang Kingdom of the Southern Dynasty, it means that locusts have the effect of dispelling wind and relieving cough..."

"Then, it was recorded in the "Bencao Jing Notes" written by Tao Hongjing, Liang State of the Southern Dynasty that locusts can be used alone or in combination, and can treat a variety of diseases.

Such as tetanus, convulsions in children, fever, relieve asthma, swelling, cormorant plague, frostbite, bronchitis and prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, etc...."

"During the Southern Song Dynasty, Yuyao native Yuzong also mentioned that the cooking method of locusts is also a rare delicacy. People with weak bodies can eat it to warm the stomach and help the yang. Children can eat it to strengthen the spleen and digest food, strengthen the muscles and bones..."

County Magistrate Xu, County Magistrate Xu and Zhili looked at Yang Qian in a daze while talking, while picking up chopsticks, carrying out a locust that had been fried browned and accompanied by spices and put it in his mouth and chewed it.

Yang Qian pursed his lips, feeling the crispy and tenderness of the scorched locust on the outside and the taste of the various spices mixed together, and couldn't help but squint his eyes intoxicated.
