Chapter 183: The end of the Ming Xiu Plank Road

With Yixiu's amazing skills, eating locusts has become extremely simple, and after the taste of the dish is completely stimulated, the gluttonous worm in everyone's stomach is hooked out by Yixiu.

After putting the dishes in the pot on the plate, he took one of them and took a bite, which was crunchy and sour and spicy.

"Lao Wei is really a genius, he actually makes Lai so delicious, I will call the god chef Xiao Yixiu in the future", Yixiu bit the food in his mouth vigorously, and his heart was full of yy.

This time, Yixiu's expression was right, and in the eyes of everyone, the originally ugly locusts are now bright in color, with a dense soup, and a unique fragrance, which makes people have a great appetite.

So, there was no need to say hello without a break, and at that moment, a group of people who were originally quiet as stones completely exploded.

Yixiu is the kung fu of blinking his eyes, he has been surrounded by the crowd, everyone is full of hands and feet, no chopsticks are used at all, you and I are one by one, and all the original hundreds of locusts in front of Yixiu have been divided, and even the condiments have been licked clean.

At this point, the established fact that locusts are a delicious ingredient has spread like autumn wind sweeping away leaves.

Everyone followed suit and caught locusts outside the Golden Cicada Mountain, some of them were able to catch a dozen catties in their spare time, and some were even able to catch hundreds of catties and share them with their friends and family.

In this way, the original urgent food shortage in the Golden Cicada Temple has really been alleviated to a certain extent.

And Yixiu's action to bring down the William family is also in full swing.

On the same day, in the Windsor family manor in Rock Fire City, a group of people were gathering at this time, including Jayne, who sneaked out of the city yesterday to negotiate with Yixiu.

At this moment, Jayne and his seven brothers, each with their equipment in their bodies, led the group first to the room closest to the city gate, which was originally covered with red bricks.

Now the floor of the room has been pried open, and the original tamped yellow earth has come out.

Jayne walked to the edge of the room and slammed his sharp shovel on the floor, splashing up a puff of dust.

Then, despite his messy knees, Jayne pressed his head against the ground, grabbed some of the dirt with his hands and squeezed it, and then he got up again and spoke to his brothers.

"This is here, the ground here is loose, if you dig from here, even if you dig from here, even if the distance is the closest, the soil is relatively soft, I guess this place is just a steep back, if you dig here to the woods near Rock Fire City, it will be more time-saving and labor-intensive than the usual place. ”

Jayne was indeed a veteran of the inverted fight, and at noon this day, after receiving the orders of the head of the Windsor family and Yi Feng, although he was a little puzzled why Yixiu asked him to dig the tunnel, and he also demanded that people and carts be able to pass upright.

This project is actually nothing for them, but the problem is that the time is very short, only give them five days, no more than one day, no more and no less.

But as a servant, Jayne could not go against the will of his master, so it was worth hurrying to find the most suitable place to excavate, both to avoid the observation of the guards at the city gates, and to ensure that the excavation site was as close to the woods as possible in the suburbs.

And Jayne only walked around the edge of the Windsor family manor for a short time, and he saw a house built a little slanted.

So, after Jayne asked someone to pry the floor tiles of this house, he didn't find this excellent digging treasure.

According to Jayne's interpretation, the topography of this place is special, and if you dig down and push forward, you will encounter almost the same soil layer, which is super easy to dig tunnels, and it can definitely shorten the time of the project.

As Jayne's good partners for many years, these people who have a good relationship can wear a pair of pants, after hearing Jayne's explanation, nodded, did not question his choice, and began to work hard.

From the outside, the surrounding courtyard of the house and the surrounding courtyard are covered with gauze made of tall towers, and there are more than a dozen craftsmen with hammers to strike left and right a few times.

Farther away, there were people pushing carts to move away the discarded materials, as if they were repairing the courtyard, but no one suspected that Jayne was leading someone to try to dig the ground.

Four days later, a piece of news suddenly exploded like thunder, and spread throughout the aristocratic circle of Rock Fire City with lightning speed.

I don't know where it came from, but I heard that it was learned from the servants of the House of Windsor, and that the caretaker of Mary's Firm was drunk and confided in it.

Anyway, there are different theories, and the final point is that the Windsor family has a manor full of grain, and will sell it at the normal price in the near future.

Many nobles initially dismissed this news as a rumor, as they had previously judged that the Windsor family simply did not have that much food.

However, there were still people who had a heart to send people to sneak into the granary of the Windsor family, and as a result, the people who sneaked into the Windsor family manor saw from afar that there were many heavily armed people guarding the place where the grain was stored, and there was a knight in charge of managing this matter.

This kind of appearance corresponds to a sentence called three hundred taels of silver here, and the Windsor family's approach is equivalent to saying that it has basically determined that the Windsor family has something hidden and does not want others to know.

Among them, the most anxious are the William family, who make the most money this time, and they are also the ones who rely on the large amount of food in their hands as a handle.

They were very helpless in the face of the rumors that the Windsor family did not know whether it was true or false.

Because once the truth of the rumors of the Windsor family is confirmed, then the food in their hands can no longer become their exclusive capital.

Not only that, but it is also possible to lose money, for this consideration, the head of the William family, on the fourth day, sent a team of people, planned to infiltrate the Windsor family's manor in batches, from all aspects, and constantly spy on the authenticity of the news.

At noon the next day, a man finally took advantage of the so-called changing of the guard to sneak into the Windsor family's granary.

As a result, this person saw a scene that stunned him, first of all, this manor that is rumored to hide a large amount of Windsor family grain, there are five hundred huge granaries alone, each of which is more than one zhang high and three meters wide.

The spies did not believe in evil, but they climbed up more than a dozen granaries and looked down from above, and the results were full of white rice, and many of them were chilling.

When the news reached the ears of the head of the William family, the head of the family was furious on the spot, but before he could get angry, he suddenly felt his head dizzy for a while, and he was actually dizzy.
