After getting permission from Li Shimin, Lin Sen went back and began to arrange for people to spread the news everywhere, saying that the Lin family had begun to buy locusts, as long as the locusts that had been dried after drowning in water.

At the beginning, the pricing must have been relatively low, and the price of a pound and a penny was tentatively given. But for those desperate people who have been plagued by locusts, this money is like a charcoal in the snow.

Originally, there was no output in the field this year, and even next year it would be damaged, but now the pest itself can be sold for money, even if it is less, it is better than nothing.

Some people who were empty heard that this thing could be sold for money, and they spontaneously ran to catch it, because the money was almost like picking it up for nothing.

Although this thing is not too weighed, and the specific gravity is lower after drying, but in the land where the locust plague is serious, a net will go down, not to mention two or three catties of locusts, how much work does it take to catch this net, and it will all drown if you throw it into the water, and then throw it aside to dry and continue to make up a net.

There are two or three nets in turn, then the efficiency is not leveraged, this day is more than going out to work to earn several times, this enthusiasm is not very high.

The several acquisition points opened by the Lin family were surrounded by locust sellers every day, and the money was also spent, but Lin Sen didn't mean to be too nervous, after all, he was already in the chest.

Other familiar martial artists, such as the Cheng family and the Qin family, basically started to buy them without asking, and the price was the same as Lin Sen's.

It's not that they want to compete with Lin Sen, on the contrary, it is out of trust in Lin Sen and the friendship between the two parties, so they don't hesitate to help.

When they didn't know what these locusts were used for, they did it without hesitation, which shows how much they value and support Lin Sen.

In fact, they all have similar thoughts to Li Shimin, thinking that Lin Sen still wants to help solve the locust plague, and this way can indeed mobilize the enthusiasm of more people to help eliminate locusts.

Even those peasant households, who were desperate because they were doomed to lose their crops, have rekindled their fighting spirit, which shows that this method is very effective in fighting the locust plague alone.

After seeing this sign, the royal caravan that had been instructed by Li Shimin quickly joined the team to purchase dried locusts.

I really started to get this thing, and everyone realized that although the people who came to deliver the locusts looked turbulent, and there were a lot of large and small bags, this thing was just looking bluffing, and the real expenditure was not as exaggerated as expected.

I can't get a lot of copper plates for pulling a cart of this thing, and I don't know how many carts of dried locusts I have to exchange for a silk, even if the money is thrown out purely as a good deed, no one will feel much distressed, so I simply open up the purchase every day.

The only thing that scratches my head is that there are so many dried locusts, I don't know where to put them.

With so many people catching locusts together, people gradually found that the locusts were not really endless, and the locust swarms that originally covered the sky and the sun clearly had a more and more sparse momentum.

In the past, there were always two or three catties of harvest in one net, but slowly I could only harvest one or two catties, and then it was a little difficult to even reach one catty at a time.

The desperate farmers have slowly begun to rekindle their confidence, and as long as this momentum continues, it is expected that the locust plague will be extinguished this year.

As for the group of people from the family who were Lin Sen's enemies, although they stopped for the time being and did not trouble Lin Sen again, they did not delay them from paying attention to Lin Sen's movements.

The purchase of locusts is so big that it can be said that people are collecting them everywhere, and those who go down to the fields are all from those who are familiar with Lin Sen, and later the royal family is also involved, how can they not know.

Although they don't know what Lin Sen means, and they can't see any benefits in it at present, but Lin Sen has always been a master who does not suffer losses, and there must be some calculation behind the acquisition of dried locusts, so we don't care about anything else, let's start collecting it.

Even if it doesn't get any benefits, it's worth taking a shot at the gratitude of the people to the gang that bought the dried locusts.

Recently, their reputation has not been very good, and the fame that they relied on the most has also been greatly discounted.

Although Li Shimin didn't mean to slap them to death, because of the Cui family's stinky street, they were scolded, and now is a good opportunity to redeem it.

As for the life or death of the people, they actually don't care too much, and of course they value their own interests more.

It's just a bit counterproductive, and the public has a different evaluation of their acquisition.

For Lin Sen, they were grateful from the bottom of their hearts at that time, and they were praised a lot by the emperor, but when they came to the side of the family, they became famous.

Some people feel that these people in the family see the interests behind them, so they came to cross the bar, why didn't they see you earlier.

Although these people are actually right, the people in those families still feel very depressed, and the money is all on the hook, but they can't even get a good one, so it's strange if they don't feel aggrieved.

But since it has already begun, at this time, if it ends hastily, wouldn't it seem that they are even more weak-hearted, really like those people scolded?

Therefore, even if the front of their acquisition point looks a little bleak and the door is crowded, they still have to hold the stall hard.

Against this background, when everyone regained their confidence, Li Shimin took a group of important ministers to the most severely affected field and began to inspect the work.

Just as recorded in history, Li Shimin saw locusts on the seedlings, simply caught a few locusts in his hands, and then cursed: "The people regard food as their life, and if you eat it, it will be harmful to the people."

If the people are guilty, then all the sins will be placed on me. If you really have a spirit, then you can eat my heart, and stop harming the people. “

Li Shimin was just about to swallow it, but the people around him hurriedly went up to persuade him at the right time, saying, "I'm afraid I'm going to get sick if I eat it!" I can't eat it!"

Li Shimin said: "I really hope that it will transfer the disaster to the people to me alone!" Even if I'm sick, I won't run away! After saying that, he immediately swallowed the locust.

When the other important ministers saw it, the emperor swallowed it, so let's not be vague and eat it.

But before they could help catch the insects, a chamberlain came up with a plate of locusts.

Well, I can't go water skiing now, so let's eat it honestly. Then the expressions of these important ministers became wonderful.

Fang Xuanling and them, as well as Cheng Yanjin and their henchmen Li Shimin, exchanged glances at each other, although they didn't speak, their eyes conveyed similar meanings.

"Yo, it tastes pretty good, what's your smell?"

"What about you, I pepper?"

"I'm spicy."

"My cumin-smelling one."

"Do you want another one?"

"It's pretty good."

Cheng Yanjin never knew what politeness was, so he grabbed another handful from the plate and stuffed it into his mouth.

Well, the chicken flavor, crunchy, delicious!

Those people from the family are different, they eat the original dried locusts, what they harvested, and what they still look like now.

Some of them are unlucky, they may not be too dry, chewing like pimps, and there is inevitably a strange taste.

After these people have eaten it, you can imagine what their faces will be.

Looking at Cheng Yanjin's intoxicated and unusually chewing on it, some people couldn't help but turn around and vomit with a "wow".
