Li Shimin personally went out of the palace to see the situation in the fields, and when he came to the outskirts of Chang'an City, many people were rushing to catch crabs in the fields.

These crabs will cut the grain, and the grain that has grown up with great difficulty will be destroyed by these crabs.

Li Shimin was so anxious that he trampled on the crab that had just climbed the ridge.

It's just hateful, killing so many crabs at a critical moment when the grain is about to ripen.

Blessing and misfortune are not a single line, so catch crabs and worry about the trampling of food.

There are even many counties that have done rituals, hoping that the gods will drive away the crabs to keep the fields.

What Li Shimin hates the most is this kind of ritual, and if you think about some things, the people don't expect me to find a way for them.

To pray to the gods?

Prestige is important, and so is it important to convince the people of themselves.

At such a juncture, we cannot just watch the people suffer.

You have to do something yourself.

Now is the most critical time to gain fame and lose it.

Li Zheng said before that chickens and ducks can be used to solve the problem of locusts.

Li Shimin asked Fang Xuanling if there was any way to solve these crabs?

Fang Xuanling thought for a while and said, "These crabs have almost no natural enemies, and if you want to deal with them, you can only rely on catching them like this." ”

A eunuch came to report and said, "Your Majesty, someone is collecting those crab worms on a large scale. ”

Those crab insects that plague the fields are still wanted?

"What are the worms used for?" Li Shimin couldn't help asking.

The eunuch replied: "I didn't say anything, I just said how much I wanted, and the two of them asked for all the money." ”

Fang Xuanling gasped, "And such a good thing?" ”

Not to mention the insects that plague the fields, it is particularly troublesome to catch them, and it is easy to hurt their hands.

There is even money to collect.

Li Shimin opened his mouth and asked, "Do you know who is collecting it?" ”

"Li Zheng, the son of Jingyang County."

Hearing the answer, Li Shimin thought about it and said, "Could it be that Li Zheng's conscience found out that he planned to help other counties and counties?" ”

Fang Xuanling also thought about it for a long time.

If others collect those crabs, it can be considered that they are generous and motivated to encourage the people to save food.

But if Li Zheng collects crabs, Li Shimin has some suspicions, Li Zheng must have a purpose.

Leaving the ridge, Li Shimin planned to go to Jingyang to see the situation, and Li Zheng might be able to do it.

For Li Zheng, Li Shimin always feels that something will be solved in his hands.

After walking around and coming to Jingyang, Li Shimin stood in the distance and saw that many villagers from other counties were crowded at the entrance of the village, and people kept sending crabs over.

It depends on the situation, Jingyang still only needs those alive, fresh crabs.

The eunuch came to report again and said, "Your Majesty, I have found out that there are many people in Jingyang who are eating crabs. ”

"They're eating that?"

Fang Xuanling's face was full of doubts, can this thing be eaten?

Since someone collects crabs, it is naturally the best.

Li Shimin sneered and said, "I want to see how much he can eat." ”

Fang Xuanling looked at Li Shimin's face and knew that he had made a decision in his heart.

Thinking that the Turks would give Li Zheng 20,000 guan every year, Li Shimin felt a little embarrassed.

Now it seems that sending troops to catch crabs can not only win the hearts of the people, but also earn money from Li Zheng, a man who wants money to die.

Thinking of this, Li Shimin's heart is very beautiful, huh! That's it.

Li Shimin ordered: "Spread my will, gather the soldiers and horses of the Chang'an Wei Mansion to catch crabs, and sell them all to Jingyang." ”

Hearing this news, Fang Xuanling gasped, seeing that His Majesty meant to compensate Li Zheng for his death.

No one wants crabs, and in the entire Chang'an, including nearby counties, only Li Zheng's family can spend money to collect crabs.

Fang Xuanling sighed: "It seems that this time Li is going to break the fortune. ”

was able to make Li Zheng bankrupt Li Shimin felt very comfortable, and took people back to the palace to wait to hear the news of Li Zheng's bankruptcy.

At the beginning, this kid knocked on my bamboo pole, and the prince and Qingque rushed to send money to Li Zheng.

Don't mention the two sons of the losers, this Li Zheng is still manipulating between the two countries' contracts.

It is also called poverty alleviation construction!

Counting the dozens of counties around Chang'an, he is the richest in Jingyang County.

Also alleviate poverty!?

Hypocrisy!

I've seen a cheeky one, but I've never seen a cheeky one like Li Zheng.

When Li Zheng has no money, see how this kid will marry his daughter, and see how this kid will beg him to let him go.

After Li Shimin returned to the palace, the news spread in the circle of powerful princes.

It is said that Li is spending money to collect crabs, and His Majesty plans to give all the crabs he caught to Li Zheng, which is to make Li Zheng bankrupt.

In Jingyang County, several cauldrons are lined up in the village of Jingyang, and crabs are being cooked.

Li Zheng said to Li Yifu: "As long as it is fresh, it must be lived." ”

In the village, Li Daxiong sighed that his family finally had some money, and he was going to be ruined by this kid.

The villagers asked Li Daxiong, "How good do you think your son has to keep this money to marry his daughter-in-law, and can he collect these crabs?" ”

Li Daxiong said: "The money is all earned by this kid himself, what can I do about him." ”

The villager said, "Beat him, I've never seen such a loser's son." ”

Li Daxiong said wistfully: "It's stupid, what if you beat him even more stupidly, and point to him to pass on the ancestry." ”

A group of villagers also sighed.

Originally, it was enough to collect crabs, but now even the officers and soldiers are sending crabs.

Li Zheng even smiled and thanked His Majesty, and the villagers sighed again.

It's hard to have a promising one in the village, but I didn't expect to be such a loser.

At this moment, Li Zheng is very busy, teaching the villagers how to make crabs.

Stir-fried crabs, boiled crabs, crab soup, steamed crabs.

It's almost a recipe with a hundred ways to eat crabs.

After a popular meal, the aunts in the village can see it, but after eating it, it seems that the crabs are not as unpalatable as rumored.

Li Zheng said to them: "Aunts, what is our ideal!" ”

A large group of aunts looked at Li Zheng a little dumbfounded, as if they were looking at a fool.

"Of course the world is peaceful."

I don't know who said it coldly.

Li Zheng said: "Wrong! In addition to the peace of the world, our village must get rid of poverty and become rich! Make a fortune. ”

The aunts were speechless for a while.

Li Zheng continued: "Let's open a shop outside Jingyang, on the side of the official road, outside Chang'an City, and sell crab dinners. ”

The aunts in the village are still a little hesitant, although the taste is not unpleasant, but is anyone eating such an ugly crab?

The village began to act, and one household after another became the action unit, and began to set up stalls around Chang'an to sell crabs.

On the first day, there were not many people to eat, but on the second day, there were sporadic customers, and after there were repeat customers, there were more and more customers.

After four or five days, business was inexplicably better, especially the rich people in Chang'an ate big fish and meat, and the crab was quite fresh and the taste was not bad.
