The official didn't say much, and after putting down his words, he went to the back to rest first, which made Cao Xianling feel uneasy. That official is obviously higher than Cao County's order, and he didn't look at the people in the county, and he didn't even let Cao County's order say that he would accompany him, just say that he would do your job well.

Cao Xian Ling had no choice, and after sending Shangguan off, he hurried back to the lobby, sighed, and motioned to the county and Master Bai to discuss together. I didn't walk outside the lobby door, I didn't stay, I was busy giving gifts and asking for instructions, Cao Xianling stretched out his hand to let me in, and Brother Qiu behind me also wanted to follow in, but I was pulled by Brother Guan, and the two stood at the door, guarding the door and not entering.

I can't help but secretly praise the eldest brother for being careful, because their level is not yet to the point where they can sit and discuss with the county magistrate.

I looked at Cao Xianling's face gloomy, and the county lord also lowered his head and didn't speak, including the white master who also frowned, I couldn't help but wonder secretly, what's wrong?

But they didn't say it, and I didn't dare to ask, so they frowned together and looked worried.

After a while, I heard Cao County's order say: "What do you think of this matter?" Both the county and the master shook their heads.

Lord County Cheng said: "I think, let's offer a reward to invite a capable person, we can't solve it even if we die in a hurry, this is a problem that has not been solved by Datang." ”

Master Bai also nodded and said: "Yes, this kind of thing has been going on for a long time, all of them are looking at the sky, looking at this year's situation, I think that the harm cannot be small, but for many years, I haven't seen any capable people in the world who can solve this matter." ”

Apparently there is no way out.

I wondered: Is there another difficult case? Leave them all helpless? Won't make me solve a big case right now, will it? I don't have any experience.

I couldn't help but feel nervous, and quickly sat down a little lower.

Cao Xianling said angrily: "You say, how can you let these pests all be exterminated, if you can, I really want to swallow them alive!" ”

Hey, it seems that it's not one or two, but a bunch, it won't be the matter of Brother Huangchao again.

I was shocked, and I couldn't help but shrink my body again.

At this time, I heard Cao County's order turn to me and asked, "Zhan Yong, do you have any good ideas?" ”

I don't know what the situation is, how to do it. Was this how subordinates were arranged in ancient times? I won't count either.

I smiled wryly, "My lord, can you tell me what happened to the little one?" ”

When Cao Xian Ling heard my words, he couldn't help but smile and said: "Alas, you see, this matter has made the officials angry, really, come, take a look, this is the order from above." ”

As he spoke, he gave me a scroll.

Fortunately, my foundation in ancient Chinese for most of the past half a year has been very good, and it is not difficult for me to be literate. I opened it and looked at it slowly,

At a glance, I was convinced that it was not a matter of the Yellow Nest, but the natural enemy of the world's food - locusts!

The decree reads: Locust plagues have occurred in many places this year, and seeing that the year of the catastrophe has become a major one, I hope that all counties can try their best to solve the problem, otherwise, officials from the state government to the upper and lower counties will be punished.

But locust plagues occur every year, but no one can solve them.

In modern times, I know that in ancient times, the harm of locusts was so great that almost all the people in the world lost their food, and every harvest year, there must be locusts infestation, and there was little left to eat the grain that was about to be harvested, and then there was a disaster year, and the people were devastated.

I didn't expect to meet me today.

I couldn't help but laugh when I felt ridiculous.

Unexpectedly, this move made the three of them stunned.

"Zhan Yong, do you have a good way to solve the locust plague?" Cao Xianling asked happily.

Lord Xiancheng and Master Bai also looked at me expectantly.

I smiled awkwardly and said, "What about this locust plague......," I said in a long voice.

Draw the heads of all three men long.

"It's not that it can't be solved."

I'm going to make a decision.

The three of them were overjoyed, and they all pulled me excitedly and said, "What can you do to solve it?" Come on. ”

I hurriedly said, "Ladies and gentlemen, don't rush first, let me think about it and talk about it one by one." ”

The three of them were also sensible people, and they all knew that this locust plague could not be solved at once, and seeing that I had a solution, they were not in a hurry for me to say it at once.

The three of them invited me to sit on the seat, Cao County ordered people to serve tea, the county lord personally served water for me, and Master Bai poured tea for me.

This treatment is still rare.

However, I didn't dare to sit down like an old man.

Just as I was thinking about it and wanted to speak, the Cao County Commander couldn't help but say: "Zhan Yong, as long as you can solve this problem, I will immediately ask for the position of county lieutenant for you, and there will be a big reward." ”

Oh, and such a good thing, it seems that if this problem is solved, there will be no need to wait another year and a half. I thought of a way to exit, but I stopped it first, maybe, there is a greater benefit, I have to wait.

Seeing that I didn't speak, the county also said: "Brother, as long as you can solve the locust plague, there is no problem for you to give you this position." ”

Of course, this is just the county lord's words, and I hurriedly said: "Don't dare, don't dare." ”

"What don't you dare, as long as you can solve the problem of the locust plague, I can give you this position, not to mention the position of the county Cheng." Cao Xian Ling said anxiously.

However, after he finished speaking, the county lord's face immediately tightened.

I know in my heart that the county lord himself said that it was an attitude, and the county magistrate said, can the county lord not be nervous?

I smiled and said: "Lord Cao, I can't help it, I can't help it, being able to share the worries of adults is exactly where the small duty lies, and it is a matter of course, not for the sake of seeking officials." ”

Lord Cao and Lord Xiancheng both praised me for being reasonable, but I suddenly asked, "I wonder how much money your lord came up with to solve this problem?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the three of them were strange.

It is estimated that the three of them thought: It turns out that this person is not for seeking officials, but for money.

I immediately knew their thoughts, and hurriedly said: "Don't get me wrong, adults, there are ways for small ones, but if you want to solve these problems on a large scale, I can't solve them by contributing money alone." I do need a certain amount of silver taels to solve it. Moreover, I promise that for this purpose, I can donate money and materials, regardless of remuneration. ”

As soon as these words came out, the three adults looked at me differently.

Uphold righteousness, righteousness and squandering wealth!

That's all they have written on their faces.

I smiled in my heart: "Solving the problem is solving the problem, but let me donate it all, I don't do it, it's best, I can still get some." ”

Cao County said magnificently: "As long as it is the wealth and materials that are available in the county government, as long as you can solve it, all of it will be for your use!" If it's not enough, the official will find a way again. ”

"Yes, yes, let's figure it out together, as long as we can solve the problem."

I thought to myself that this would be easy, so I stood up and said, "If the adults can really do this, I can guarantee that although the small ones cannot destroy all the locusts, they can mobilize all the people of the city to catch the locusts like gold." ”
