Jingyang County Government Office.

The prince Qin Yong of the sledgehammer has left, leaving only the Jingyang Order Wang Renyou and Zheng Yuanrui.

"The person surnamed Qin is really too slander!" Zheng Yuanrui's face turned pale and he cursed resentfully.

Wang Renbiao sighed, "Brother Zheng, you have done something wrong this time. Now that the handle is being taken, we can only bow our heads."

Zheng Yuanrui said, "This Qin surname is a messing stick. I am talking about the little bastard of the Qin family. The big one is better. But the small one is unscrupulous and has repeatedly become enemies of our gentry. Such a small thing has to be exaggerated. Isn't this going to take the opportunity to make trouble?"

"He came for our gentry. These common people will be so rampant when they become powerful!"

Wang Renyou sighed, "You may be right, but we are inferior to this matter now and we can't force it."

"Then will my thousand stones of food be confiscated by the little bastard of the Qin family?"

Wang Renyou looked at him, "It's now, you're still thinking about that little bit of food. Now we have to hope that Qin Lang will not take the opportunity to pursue you, Brother Zheng, and not to pursue Defang. Forget it, let's not talk about it, let's go to welcome the next two together. Who told them that the Holy Jun Zhenglong is now!"

Wang Renyou looked at Zheng Yuanrui and had a headache. At this critical moment, what did you say you had to smuggle this grain? But you were unlucky and even encountered Qin Lang. Isn’t this head stretching down the knife?

Originally, the five surnames and seven families finally got on the Li Tang ship before. Seeing the peace in the world, everyone could finally continue to live a stable life and continue to be a noble family. But who would have expected that the prince Jiancheng would be beaten up by Li Shimin in the face of all kinds of advantages.

Once Jiancheng died, the five surnames and seven families were defeated.

Which family is not living with their tails? As the former Crown Princess's family, your Zheng family should have lived with their tails, but why haven't they learned the lesson? It's better to do this at this time, and now people have taken the handle again.

"Brother Wang, you must help." Zheng Yuanrui also realized that it would not be easy to get out this time. He just cursed a few words, but when he thought of seeing that little bastard Qin Lang, he was still a little uneasy.

Wang Renyou is a relative of the Zheng family and his classmate, but Wang Renyou also has an important identity, that is, his uncle married the current emperor's aunt, and was just named Princess Tong'an not long ago. With this relationship, the Wang family now has much closer to the royal family.

Although the Wang family was close to Prince Jiancheng at the time, they were still relatives of aunts and uncles.

"I'll think of a solution, but I'll have to bow my head in a while. Who made the Qin family stand in power now? Look at the Cui family, you can change their minds quickly."

Zheng Yuanrui was helpless, "Okay, okay."

Jingyang Wharf.

Qin Lang stood on the river embankment with his father Qin Qiong, but did not enter Jingyang County. He had no plans to enter Jingyang County, but he passed by and then went to inspect the provinces of Lianggan, Jingyuan, Bining. The Zheng family's smuggling grain found at the wharf was just a small accident.

"What are you going to deal with this?" Qin Qiong asked his son.

"It's obvious that Zheng Yuanrui and his son smuggled food. At this time, this is a serious crime. The food is confiscated and detained, and sent to Chang'an Zhao Prison to be detained and submitted to His Majesty for disposal." Qin Lang said.

Qin Qiong shook his head. His son is still very capable of doing things, but one thing is that sometimes he does things too directly.

This is in line with the temperament of young people, but now he is an official in the court, this kind of temperament is not good.

"Have you considered the Zheng family? After all, the Zheng family is one of the five surnames and seven sects. After all, the Zheng family in Xingyang has been in charge of the leader of the gentry for many years. Although he has been slightly hit by the deposed prince, His Majesty cannot suppress the Zheng family for a long time. After fighting, he will still have to pull it up again. He will show his grace after establishing his authority!"

Qin Qiong looked farther from the situation in the court than Qin Lang. Today, Zi started his career with the upstarts of military merits and also relied on these generals to seize the world, but now he is an emperor, it is different from before.

In the past, when he and the prince Jiancheng competed for the throne, most famous families of the gentry stood on Jiancheng's side, and were enemies and opponents. But now that he became the emperor, it was impossible for him to regard these famous families as enemies.

"The emperor often said that he would conquer the world immediately, but he could not govern the world immediately. After all, he could not do without these gentry members. So sooner or later they would return to the court, and no one could replace them. Look, Wang Gui, Li Gang and others have reentered the center again? How many of us, the generals of the Qin Palace, can we transfer from martial arts to civil servants and serve as the posts of the Nine Ministers of Shangshu?"

"Didn't you let me follow my own silence?"

"It's not about being private, but about taking care of the overall situation. Since even Your Majesty will not really drive these gentry out of the court, then there is no need for us to make this big deal, and it will be over if it turns big."

Qin Qiong suggested to Qin Lang that the case of Zheng Yuanshu could be simplified.

Zheng Yuanrui's thousand stone grain was classified as being sold by the Zheng family to Changping Store, and the grain was collected at the market price, and Zheng Yuanrui did not need to pursue it.

"Is this too much tolerant of the traitor?"

"The overall situation is the most important thing. The key is to save people and provide disaster relief, rather than creating troubles. There is no need to make enemies from the Zheng family again. I will regard it as giving the Wang family a face and everyone is happy."

"The Grandpa said it is reasonable, but my son still thinks that this matter should be reported first. The son can submit a petition to the Holy Tribunal according to his father's wishes, but all results shall be subject to the Holy Tribunal."

Qin Qiong smiled.

"It's great that you can think of this."

So Qin Lang said to the people, "Go to inform the king and county magistrate, and said that my official accompanied the Duke of Qi to inspect the place and see them tomorrow."

After leaving the city and coming to the dock, Wang Renyou and Zheng Yuanrui, who were from afar, could be seen standing there for a long time, and then waiting for such a notice.

Wang Renyou said to Zheng Yuanrui, "It seems that there is still room for this matter to go around, wait."

"That little bastard named Qin deliberately humiliated our gentry!"

"Say a few words. If you really want to be humiliated, don't think you are still here now. You may have been directly shackled and taken to Chang'an Zhao Prison."

When Zheng Yuanrui heard the word "王子子", he couldn't help but remain silent.

The reputation of the Zhao Prison is getting bigger and bigger. Even Li Gui has been sent in. Who dares to be careless? Once he enters the Zhao Prison, even the prime ministers of the Political Affairs Hall cannot interfere.

·······

Along the banks of the Jing River, Qin Lang accompanied Qin Qiong to patrol many villages along the way and found that the fields are really lively now, and the people are like fighting for the busy farming, with men, women, and young and old everywhere.

At the county level, in all townships, villages and villages, now there are military orders and decree the responsibility.

The fields were digging ditches everywhere, just like fighting a tunnel. The women took their children with bamboo sticks and cloth strips and shouted to drive away the jumping locusts, drove the jumping locusts that had just hatched and could not fly together, rushed to the ditches dug by the men, and then took the nets and cloths to catch them and threw them into the bucket to drowned.

After drowning, the other side quickly picked it up and then poured it into the ground on the side to dry it.

At night, you can return with a full load and take it back and exchange it for food.

Everyone is extremely enthusiastic. On the one hand, they are saving themselves. After all, there are crops in the fields, and on the other hand, there is food to replace.

Jumping can be seen everywhere on the road. Some have shed several times and are very big in size and are very dark in color, while others have just hatched and are very light in color.

这些跳蝻虽不会飞,可见青就吃.

尤其是在河滩湖边等地,更是密集.

Although it has not yet reached the point of overwhelming view, it can still be seen everywhere.

秦琅不时抓起一只仔细观察.

In front, a group of children were laying chickens and ducks. The chickens and ducks were eating locusts happily, and they could easily peck the locusts into their belly. The ducks had already eaten their stomachs and swayed there, swaying when they walked, but they were still continuing to eat.

While watching the chickens and ducks, they were still catching locusts wherever they went. They held small nets and strangled the caught locusts to death and threw them into their backpacks.

Qin Lang found that they had gained a lot. Everyone had a small basket in their backpack, which probably cost less than five or six kilograms.

The children were very excited and were catching them very actively. A bucket of locusts can be exchanged for another bucket of millet. It was only effective in the first three days. After these three days, one bucket can be exchanged for another liter. So now everyone is trying hard to catch locusts, and the children are working very hard.

"It seems that there are still fewer chickens and ducks." Qin Qiong sighed.

秦琅却很高兴.

"Grandma, look at the scene where everyone catches locusts. After this battle, even if there is another locust explosion in the future, it is probably difficult to cause disaster."

After walking another period, I found a pile of firewood growing on the dike. A group of children who were tired of catching locusts put their full baskets aside. Then each of them skewed a few skewed locusts with branches, and then roasted them on the fire, without salt, fennel, etc., and roasted them like this, which reminded Qin Lang of the experience of catching cicadas and eating them when he was a child.

The people don’t have that much oil to fry locusts, and they are reluctant to wrap them with flour, and there is no unnecessary seasoning. They also start eating locusts, but the way to eat is simple. The locusts caught are now directly exchanged for food, but the gap between the locusts, they will directly use fire to roast some locusts to fill their stomachs, so they don’t have to go home to make lunch, so they don’t have to bring dry food.

Qin Lang took out his purse and bought a few skewers with the children at a penny. Then, he and Qin Qiong and his guards also experienced this pure natural and unadditive roasted locust. The children's skills were average, and some were burnt.

秦琼吃的嘴辱都是黑灰,却还挺高兴.

"Even children can roast locusts and eat them, why worry about the locusts not extinction?"

Qin Lang accompanied Qin Qiong to inspect the countryside of Jingyang for a day, and silently recorded the plan along the way. As he calculated, he found that almost every household in the village in Jingyang Township raised a lot of chickens, ducks and geese. This was obviously his contribution to the incubation and selling of seedlings. Under normal circumstances, the people would not have so many seedlings at home. However, this year, because the cheap seedlings supplied by Qin Lang were even almost the same as the people had no capital, every family raised dozens of chickens, ducks and geese this year.

Grain prices are expected to continue to rise this year, but the prices of chickens, ducks and geese are expected to continue to fall.

It seems that you can open a roast duck shop or a salted duck egg shop with a roast chicken, a scallion chicken, a scallion egg shop to help the people digest these poultry and egg products.

When it was dark, Qin Lang returned to Jingyang County, and Qin Lang also received a reply from the emperor. The emperor was satisfied with Qin Lang's proposed disposal method and felt that this was the best strategy at the moment.

After receiving this order, Qin Lang finally summoned Wang Renyou and Zheng Yuanrui.

After Qin Lang scolded Zheng Yuanrui, he announced the disposal result. Chang Pingtiao purchased the 1,000 stone of grain and purchased it at the market price, but there was no money to pay for the time being, so he temporarily wrote a blank note.

Zheng Yuanrui was holding the white stick signed by Qin Lang, feeling mixed feelings, but in the end he was relieved and thanked Qin Lang.

"This is only once, no example!" Qin Lang said.

"Thank you Duke Yi!" Zheng Yuanrui thanked.
