The swarm of insects was overwhelming, and everywhere it went, it was bare.

Locust plagues are accompanied by drought, and wherever there is a locust plague, there is sure to be a drought.

At this time, the imperial historian who has been hiding or something, the nasty ghost who loves to attack people the most jumped out, what offended the heavens, the karma was heavy, and everything came out.

"How much food is there in various places now?"

In Liu Youfu's political hall, the household department is also in the book, the prime minister is also there, and there are only four people present plus Xuanyuan Hanmo.

Xuanyuan Hanmo opened the latest map he had brought with him, and four people surrounded the map.

"In addition to the cities around the capital, Youzhou in the east, Yizhou in the west, Jingzhou in the south and other places have drought and locust plagues, and there is a shortage of food at present, but there is no locust plague in the west of Yongzhou in the west, and all the food is quite abundant."

Tobe Shangshu flipped through the booklet in his hand and read out the data.

"The locust plague is not terrible, what worries me the most is the drought, there is a sea in Yizhou, which can divert water for irrigation, but Yizhou can't, the river is estimated to be almost dry, and it takes too much manpower and material resources to divert water to it."

Xuanyuan Hanmo pointed out on the map that the location of Yizhou was very embarrassing, obviously very close to the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, but it was only very close to the map, and it was actually too difficult to divert water from the Yangtze River.

At present, we can only start from the source of the river and solve the problem of dryness from the source.

"The locust plague is not serious? Leaving the locust plague is as terrible as death, little prince, you actually say it's not terrible? ”

Tobe Shangshu said in surprise.

Liu Youfu glanced at Hubu Shangshu obliquely, this guy still has little knowledge, Xuanyuan Hanmo said that it is not terrible, which means that he has a way.

Xuanyuan Hanmo really didn't disappoint Liu Youfu, and he taught Hubu Shangshu well the next moment.

"The locust plague, it's just that there are too many locusts, but do you say that the locusts are powerful, or are we people powerful? Send out the emperor's list, a load of locusts for a bag of grain! ”

"Locusts for food? Isn't that a free giveaway? What is the use of so many locusts in us? ”

Tobe Shangshu was puzzled.

"Raise livestock! Chicken, duck, goose, fish, shrimp! In addition to the rich families who can eat eggs and duck eggs, the poor only eat them once a year, which is not good! ”

Tobe Shangshu still doesn't understand.

Xuanyuan Hanmo patiently explained that the benefits of locusts to chickens and ducks and other poultry, after all, locusts, a high-protein thing, are indeed very nutritious.

"And locusts, fried and fried, it tastes really fragrant!"

In the end, Xuanyuan Hanmo said this and licked his lips.

Liu Youfu, who had been listening carefully, had his eyes glowing, and he could say from Xuanyuan Hanmo's mouth that it tasted very fragrant, it must be very fragrant!

"So be it! Now on the list! Catch a load of locusts for me and come back! ”

Liu Youfu couldn't wait to give the order, so that the head of the household book left with a strange face.

Eating locusts? This is directly denied in the heart of Tobe Shangshu! I won't eat it if I kill it! Whoever loves to eat eats, who eats!

As soon as the emperor list was hung, the whole country was a sensation, a load of locusts for a bag of grain, such a cost-effective thing, whoever doesn't come is stupid!

At the end of the day, people in the most serious areas such as Yizhou caught thousands of catties of locusts.

Xuanyuan Hanmo also deliberately used a train to transport him back to the capital.

At night, Liu Youfu came to Xuanyuan Hanmo's mansion by himself, and it happened that Xuanyuan Hanmo had just washed the locusts and was about to explode.

"It'll be fine in a while! Wait! ”

"Hmm!"

Liu Youfu waited expectantly.

Xuanyuan Hanmo poured the locusts into the oil pot, and after a crisp sound, Xuanyuan Hanmo scooped up the locusts, and a burst of fragrance came out, and the locusts that were fried into a golden color were put on the plate.

Smelling this smell, Liu Youfu's saliva began to flow, and he was about to reach out to take it, when Xuanyuan Hanmo opened his hand.

"Not yet! Sprinkle some salt! ”

After Xuanyuan Hanmo sprinkled some salt, Liu Youfu couldn't wait and started eating directly.

The amount of a plate was gone after a while, and Liu Youfu didn't feel anything in his stomach.

"What does it taste like?"

"This!"

Liu Youfu stretched out his thumb and licked the corners of his mouth.

"Full?"

"How is that possible!"

"Then you don't know how many to leave for me? Bastard! ”

Xuanyuan Hanmo was so angry that he hadn't eaten a bite yet!

In this locust feast, the two of them ate several catties, and finally stopped when their stomachs were full.

"This method can be promoted! I really can't get rid of them. ”

Liu Youfu patted his big belly and said.

Xuanyuan Hanmo listened to Liu Youfu's words and rolled his eyes, this way of eating is not affordable for ordinary people at all in this era.

"Still promote? Do you think anyone can afford it? This nest of oil is not something that ordinary people can make! But you also reminded me, this thing can be promoted, make a new dish in your restaurant, and you will definitely make a profit! No way! Let's talk about it! I want seventy percent profit! ”

Liu Youfu is also in a hurry, seventy percent of the benefits! His restaurant has made great efforts, and Xuanyuan Hanmo has nothing to do, so he wants to make seventy percent of it for nothing!

"Twenty percent at most! You want to take seventy percent without giving out anything? Dream! ”

"I figured it out! The copyright is mine! ”

"Fuck off! I don't understand what copyright is! I'm the emperor, and everything you come up with is mine! ”

The two stared at each other for a long time, and finally both sides compromised and split the account.

The next day, Liu Youfu's restaurant launched this new dish, and you can still taste a plate for free for the first three days!

A table was set up at the door of the restaurant, and whoever wanted to eat it would fry a plate.

At first, no one dared to eat it, after all, no one had eaten this locust.

At this time, the usefulness of Tuo appeared, and a man stepped forward to try it, and before eating, he looked bitter, but after eating, his expression became pleasantly surprised.

I ate the amount of a plate in a few clicks, and then without saying a word, I went directly to the store and ordered a plate.

Other people saw it and became curious, and slowly other people tried it, and then they went crazy, and one stubble after another people poured up.

In the end, the amount of free food was gone, and even the amount in the store was sold out.

It was only half a day, and the amount of thousands of catties was all used up.

People who are addicted to eating are a little anxious when they don't have to eat now.

"There are a lot of them outside the city, let's catch them ourselves! I just saw what they made, and we can do it just for frying! ”

"This..."

The idea of a gentleman's long-distance cooking has long been engraved in the bones of scholars.

But! In the world of foodies, there is something delicious, and everything can be thrown away! Dignity? What's that? Is it tasty?

Scholars are still like this, let alone ordinary people who are not scholars.

All of a sudden, a hurricane arose in the capital, a hurricane to catch locusts, and this hurricane set off a craze for eating locusts in various parts of Dalong.

If you have a rich family, let your subordinates catch locusts and come back, and fry them in your own house.

A few poor families made a nest of oil, and together they selected some of the locusts they had caught and threw them into them to fry them, and tasted them.
