After a warm winter's nourishment, the locusts are finally here!!
"There is a rare drought in Qinzhou, the land is dry, the locusts are mighty, and everywhere you go, there is no grass ......."
"There is a locust plague in Liangzhou, the crops are eaten by locusts, and the people look at the barren land and want to cry without tears......
"Maozhou and other places also have a more serious drought and locust plague, the people are almost out of harvest, the government quickly started the Yicang, the potatoes are distributed to the victims to fill the hunger, the current mood of the victims is stable, there is no chaos in the situation, the following reporter to introduce you to a fresh method of potatoes, it is said that Jingyang County after several days and nights of sleepless meticulous research, called sour and hot potato shredded ......"
"There was a large-scale drought in Guanzhong, and the people of Jingyang County were also worried about these disaster areas, and some people in Jingyang approached reporters, and they were willing to donate 3,000 stones of potatoes to solve the food problem in the disaster area. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoLet's remember these donors: Zhao Laohan, a 'little planting expert' in Jingyang County, Zhang Laosan's family in Jingyang County's 'Kindness Home', and Wang Laotou in Jingyang County......"
"There is a disaster in the Guanzhong area, and the emperor is highly concerned! Recently, the Tang Emperor issued an important directive, calling for rapid verification of the disaster situation, immediate rescue work, and minimization of casualties and property losses of the people. and sent Fang Xuanling, eldest grandson Wuji and other ministers to the first scene of the disaster to organize rescue and condolences......"
"Are we vermin? No! Recently, Liu Yuze let out an exhilarating shout!! Liu Yuze pointed out that according to his master's painstaking research for nearly 40 years, locusts are actually a delicious dish! Liu Yuze cooked a locust meal for the reporter on the spot, and the reporter tried it in person, and it was really delicious! Now, this reporter will teach you this fried locust......"
"Liu Aiqing, you have worked hard!! In order to snipe the locusts, he even risked his life and ate the locusts himself!! This widow of yours has written it down! The widow wanted to eat the locusts himself to cheer up the people, but he couldn't find a reporter (is that really the case??). Nima's mobile phone has the permission to send news, okay!! Shameless!! Fortunately, Aiqing, like me, is worried about the people's diseases. I made such a great move......"
"Your Majesty, in fact, fried locusts are really delicious......"
"Aiqing doesn't need to say much, I understand, I understand............"
You know your sister!!
This drought can be summed up in one sentence, that is, the famous person ~ flow ~ advertisement: "Has it started?" It's over!! ”
Under Liu Yuze's early warning and preparation, the extremely serious drought in Guanzhong thus produced the smallest casualties in the history of disasters in the country, and Li Shimin announced on the mobile phone news on the same day: "We have achieved a complete victory over the drought and locust plagues!" ”
"Your Majesty, the locust plague and drought have passed for the time being, but the land problem has not been solved!! Now the people still have potatoes to eat. But what about next year? We must take steps to ensure that people can grow food even in drought years......"
"Aiqing, you know that if there is a drought, the land will dry up and no crops can be grown......"
"Your Majesty, you can't rely on the sky to eat when you grow crops! There is a drought this year and a flood next year, so how can the people live? ? Liu Yuze really wanted to remind Li Shimin that in the entire history of the Tang Dynasty for hundreds of years, there will be nearly 200 droughts!!
"Is there any good way to do it?"
"I'm not a god, how can I do anything!! But as the saying goes, three stinkers are Zhuge Liang, I can't help it, but there are nearly 10 million people in Datang, they always have a way!! ”
"What does Aiqing mean?"
"College Entrance Examination in advance, selection of talent !!"
"The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty is eager to recruit talents, and after research, the time of the first college entrance examination will be advanced! Next year's college entrance examination time will remain the same!! After careful arrangement, the first college entrance examination talent selection will be held in 10 days!! In view of the rush of this exam, the majority of candidates may not be able to attend due to the long distance, after discussion, the first college entrance examination will be held separately! The specific arrangements are as follows:
Liberal arts, arithmetic, and medicine will take the form of propositions, and candidates who take these subjects can rush to your local county school within 10 days to prepare for the exam, and on the day of the exam, the questions will be announced by mobile phones, and everyone will answer them in the examination room.
Physics, agriculture, and miscellaneous studies will not be proposed. Candidates who take these subjects can compile their research and insights into a booklet. It will be handed over to the local county school within 10 days, and the imperial court will select the best candidates after centralized sorting.
The martial arts department will not participate in this year's college entrance examination. ”
"Aiqing, are you sure that any of those candidates know the solution to the drought of the land?"
"I'm not sure, but it's good to have something else to gain!! Your Majesty, great wisdom will always be in the people, I believe that this college entrance examination can attract many unique talents for my Datang!! ”
