Chapter 129: Champion Lou has struck again!
After Li Tai, the king of Yue, took office, he organized local officials in various places to eliminate locust eggs as much as possible in the form of forced labor.
Prevent manpower, and set up a separation zone at the junction with Guanzhong.
On the one hand, they are buying food, hoarding food, and preventing accidents.
At the same time, every 10 days, Li Shimin will inevitably report on the progress of the work.
In short, Li Tai, the king of Yue, has done the disaster prevention work to the extreme.
Li Shimin was very satisfied with this.
is worthy of being his most beloved son, and doing things is reassuring.
And comparing with another son, Li Su, made Li Shimin frown.
What the hell is this guy doing?
Some time ago, he was roasting duck.
He also lied to me that roast duck could cure the locust plague, so I waited and watched.
However, in the blink of an eye, this kid quit the roast duck in the champion building.
I even use my reputation for publicity.
And in recent times, it has been even more outrageous.
This kid is actually studying how to make food out of locusts.
At that time, few people dared to eat locusts.
Even if there is a locust plague, few people eat locusts.
This fear of locusts has probably been passed down from ancient times.
In ancient times, because of low productivity, the ability to resist natural disasters was low.
Therefore, they are very afraid of natural disasters, and they will be in awe of some natural phenomena, and then they will bow and worship.
For example, in ancient times, people were afraid of fire, so they worshipped the god of fire.
If you are afraid of the water, you will worship the depths of the water.
If you are afraid of thunder and lightning, you will worship the god of thunder.
Because of these, they will be harmed.
The same is true of locust plagues.
They had no means to deal with the locust plague, so they were very afraid of the locust plague.
I think that they have done something wrong, and that God has arranged to punish them.
Since the locusts are the messengers of heaven, who else dares to eat them?
This fear has been passed down from generation to generation.
In the original historical trajectory, during the Zhenguan period, there was a locust plague in the Tang Dynasty.
The people of Datang were helpless in the face of the locust plague.
At that time, Li Shimin had eaten locusts himself.
And also said on the spot: The people take food as the sky, if you dare to eat the people's crops, I will eat you!
At that time, the accompanying guards were startled, and hurriedly dissuaded: Your Majesty, this locust is poisonous and cannot be eaten!
Li Shimin said angrily: If it is poisonous, let it be poisoned!
After Li Shimin ate it, there was no, which proved that the locusts were not poisonous.
However, it did not play a big role in preventing locust plagues.
Now, Li Shimin thinks that this kid uses locusts to study food, which may be more reliable than roast duck.
But what's the use of studying this?
He doesn't really think that he can eat the locust plague just by eating people, right?
This is also whimsical!
Li Shimin felt that Li Su was messing around.
However, every time Li Su does something, he can bring him a surprise.
Even in Li Shimin's heart, he still believes in Li Su more.
……
In fact, in a place that Li Shimin didn't notice, Li Su, the king of Shu, also did a lot of things.
Li Shimin has an intelligence-gathering organization by his side.
It can be said that the emperors of all dynasties will have such an organization around them.
However, the bad people around Li Shimin are not as changed as Jinyiwei during the Ming Dynasty after all.
He is only collecting important information, and he will not collect everything in detail and report it all.
Therefore, for example, in Chang'an City, some people collect a large number of duck eggs.
Guanzhong has established three large-scale duck egg hatcheries and more than a dozen duck farms, and this kind of thing will not be reported to Li Shimin.
And in Guanzhong, a notice was posted at this time.
After March, the king of Shu will buy ducks at a price of 20 yuan per duck.
The price of 20 wen!
After hearing this price, the people of the entire Guanzhong were about to go crazy.
You know, in the market, the price of each duck is only three or five cents.
The price of a duck given by the king of Shu was four or five times higher than that in the bazaar.
Last year's severe drought caused them to lose their grain harvest.
Thanks to the relief of the imperial court, they survived.
However, every family is poor jingle.
Now, the King of Shu is equivalent to giving them a way to make a fortune!
The King of Shu has a very high reputation among the people, and the reputation of the King of Shu is also very great.
can build a golden chicken coop, use a convertible car to pull a cart full of money to gamble, and invite more than a dozen Qingqi people to sing and dance on the street.
He said that if a duck is given twenty wen, it will definitely not be less.
Therefore, in the whole Guanzhong, there was a wind of raising ducks.
This directly led to the price of duck eggs beginning to rise.
In the whole Guanzhong, anyone who has ducks at home is no longer willing to eat duck eggs.
The duck eggs, which originally cost two pennies, have now been raised to one penny.
Anyone who raised ducks at home made a small fortune.
And throughout Guanzhong, there are more and more people raising ducks at home.
At the same time, the vendors contacted by Zhao Wu also sent the first batch of duck eggs.
Zhao Wu bought all of them at the price of two pennies a piece.
Then they were immediately sent to the hatchery and ordered to be incubated immediately.
At present, the first batch of duck eggs sent at the earliest has successfully hatched ducklings.
And has already been sent to a duck farm.
Li Su can receive reports from Zhao Wu every day.
I am very satisfied with the progress of Zhao Wu's work.
During this time, the entire Shu Palace, except for Xiu'er, almost everyone was sent out.
He even seconded many manpower in the Wu Mansion.
Li Zheng of Wucheng Village, Zhao Wu's father Zhao Si, was also found by Li Su.
During this time, he was ordered to specialize in the production of a very fine net.
There are huge nets, there are medium nets, and there are small nets.
There's also a little net that anyone can take.
Zhao Si didn't know what it was for.
It's not like a fishing net anyway.
……
Everything is going on step by step according to the plan formulated by Li Su.
Next, Li Su began to implement the next plan.
In Chang'an City, there was a big incident again!
Champion Building!
It's the champion building again!
Zhuangyuanlou offers a reward of 10,000 yuan to challenge the warriors who dare to eat locusts!
And, there are ten places!
That is to say, if ten people dare to eat locusts, Zhuangyuanlou will have to pay a total of 100,000 yuan to others.
This news immediately caused a sensation in the entire Chang'an City.
In ancient times, entertainment was scarce.
The rich and noble families are okay, and they can gamble, drink, and listen to songs.
You can also go on a safari on horseback, or climb a mountain or go boating, or a spring outing.
But for ordinary people, how can they have spare money and time to have fun?
In the past two years, the King of Shu was suddenly born.
It has really made a great contribution to the entertainment industry of Chang'an City.
The vast majority of the people in Chang'an City did not dare to eat locusts.
However, it is also excellent to go and see the excitement.
I missed the excitement of the pagoda last time, but this time, I can't miss it again.
If I like Datang, I am really the prince of the Tang Dynasty, please collect it: () I am the prince of the Tang Dynasty is the fastest update.
