Chapter 758: Locust Plague Erupts
At this time, in Xiangping City, Zhao Feng was very busy.
Why is that?
The reason is very simple, it is because the locust plague predicted by Zhao Feng before really happened!
This locust plague has spread widely, and there are locust plagues of different sizes in the entire Yellow River Basin, of course, the entire Yellow River Basin is not only Zhao Feng's family, but also Cao Cao, who is also anxious!
However, compared to Cao Cao, Zhao Feng is much better, as early as before, Zhao Feng had predicted on the "Liaodong Evening News", saying that there would be locust plagues in late summer and early autumn or when the autumn harvest was about to occur, and in the newspaper, Zhao Feng also published several issues of knowledge about locusts, including the prevention and control of locust plagues, the natural enemies of locusts, and so on.
Although the people are very convinced of Zhao Feng and Liaodong Daily, the locust plague is still very terrible after all! Therefore, more people, the fear in their hearts overcame their belief in Zhao Feng in their hearts.
Five days earlier, it had been the first outbreak of the locust plague in a county town in eastern Liaodong. At the same time, of course, there are many places where locust plagues have broken out.
"My lord, the locust plague has broken out!" Gu Yong found Zhao Feng and said eagerly.
"What?" Zhao Feng was slightly stunned, it was time to come after all! "Hurry up, didn't I tell you about the response before? Do it now, hurry! ”
"Yes!" Gu Yong naturally knew what Zhao Feng was referring to, it was nothing more than putting natural enemies and organizing the people to eat locusts! But will the people really eat it?
Gu Yong retreated, while Zhao Feng frowned, secretly imagining all kinds of possible situations in his heart.
But then Jia Xu came to him.
"Lord, someone with a heart is about to move!" Jia Xu said coldly.
"Oh? What's going on? Zhao Fengde raised his eyebrows slightly and asked.
"That's ......," Jia Xu said slowly.
It turned out that not long after the locust plague broke out, someone wrote an anonymous article, fiercely criticizing Zhao Fengde's actions, and scolding Zhao Feng bloody! And also said that this locust plague was brought about by Zhao Fengde's so-called innovations, and God was angry, and if he wanted to calm God's anger, he had to overthrow Zhao Fengde's rule!
"Humph!" Zhao Feng snorted coldly, the reason why this person dared to write like this was to take advantage of the ignorance of the people!
"Do you know who that man is?" Zhao Feng asked coldly.
"I haven't found out yet! It doesn't seem to be our Liaodong natives! Jia Xu shook his head and said.
"Not a local?" Zhao Fengde's brows furrowed again, could it be someone from other forces?
Thinking of this, Zhao Feng was slightly shocked in his heart, could it be that the man in black belonged to the force?
"What about Cao Cao's side? Did anyone specifically target him? Zhao Feng hurriedly asked.
"It doesn't seem to be there yet!" Jia Xu shook his head.
Hearing this, Zhao Feng could basically conclude that the person who wrote the article must be specifically targeting Liaodong, and it is very likely that the forces to which the black-clothed people belonged before!
"Wenhe, you say, could it be that the forces of those men in black before are secretly targeting us?" Zhao Feng asked in a deep voice.
"This ......" Jia Xu was stunned by Zhao Feng's sudden question, as if he ...... Possible...... Probably...... Perhaps, it's really like what Zhao Feng said, right?
Jia Xu lowered his head and pondered, thinking about the possibility of this matter.
"Forget it, let's do a good job of disaster relief first!" Zhao Feng shook his head, and smiled bitterly in his heart, it was really a big move, and besides, this feeling of being secretly targeted by others was really unpleasant!
"Lord, what should we do with this article now?" Jia Xu asked.
"In this way, I will publish another article in the "Liaodong Daily" to refute this statement!" Zhao Feng said, "I believe that the people under our rule should believe in us!" ”
"Wenhe, your main task now is to find out this person who targeted us in Liaodong, as long as you find the culprit, things will be easy!" Without waiting for Jia Xu to reply, Zhao Feng spoke again.
"Yes!" Jia Xu nodded, he also knew how important what Zhao Feng said.
"Alright, let's go down!" Zhao Feng waved his hand and motioned for Jia Xu to retreat.
Jia Xu retreated when he heard this, and then Zhao Feng picked up the pen and wrote quickly on the paper, sprinkled with joy, and an article was written out like this.
……
On the streets of the market, the people talked about this locust plague endlessly.
"Huh? Have you heard of a locust plague recently? A middle-aged man asked the people around him.
"Needless to say, besides, there is such a saying, I don't know if you have heard of it?" At this time, a young man with sinister eyebrows whispered.
"What's that?"
"That's it, what's that?"
……
The people around asked curiously.
"That's the case, a few days ago, I heard such a saying, that is, our king of Liaodong did something that angered God, and God was angry, so there is this locust plague! If you want to calm the anger of God, you only need to overthrow the system implemented by our Liaodong king! The young man whispered.
"How is that possible?"
"That's not right, is it?"
"Won't it?"
……
The people began to talk about it, but the most of them were not convinced by what the young man said.
"Let me tell you, you see, since the reign of Zhao Feng, the king of Liaodong, since the reign of Zhao Feng, the snowstorm, drought, and waterlogging have happened all over the place, and now there is a locust plague, you say, isn't this God punishing Zhao Feng or what?" The young man said with emotion, "So, I think there is some truth in what I said, as long as the policy pursued by Zhao Feng is overturned, God's anger will be able to subside!" ”
In the crowd, there was a cold light in someone's eyes, and then they continued to hide in the crowd, listening to the people's discussions.
……
Conversations like these, streets and alleys, teahouses, brothels, abound. A clear-eyed person can see at a glance that the person who looks like that thief-eyed young man is the one sent by the forces that secretly target Liaodong!
If they want to spread their words in the city, they must start with the people, so as long as there are people, they exist.
However, they obviously underestimated the strength of Liaodong Jinyiwei, almost every crowd has a Jinyiwei figure, as long as the crowd disperses, this person who is the leader of the rumors will be captured by Jinyiwei!
However, just when Jia Xu wanted to interrogate, these people mysteriously vomited black blood from their mouths and died of poisoning!
Jia Xu didn't dare to be a little sloppy, and hurriedly reported this phenomenon to Zhao Feng.
