Even so, Lu Chengqi felt a little strange. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoIt stands to reason that once a natural or man-made disaster occurs, the Supervision Department is the first to get the information, why is this time an exception?

Of course, in front of Zhou Zhiruo, Lu Chengqi would not say this, but desperately praised her for knowing how to take care of the overall situation. praised Zhou Zhiruo in the sky and not on the ground, and praised Zhou Zhiruo thin-skinned: "Your Majesty's praise is too much......

"Ever? No, not at all! Lu Chengqi sighed, "If it weren't for Zitong's timely action, Shandong East Road would be unimaginable." Since ancient times, Ludi men have been upright, jealous and hateful, distinguishing right from wrong, and speaking of righteousness. If they are cornered, Shandong East Road will be in chaos; Shandong East Road is in turmoil, and the world is in danger......"

This is not alarmist, but it is true. In the official history, the Northern Song Dynasty was since Liangshan Shuibo, and then there was the Fangla Uprising, and the last trace of vitality of the Northern Song Dynasty was exhausted. The seemingly prosperous Bianliang is actually just a doll like papier-mâché under the golden man's iron ride. Taking "history" as a mirror, Lu Chengqi naturally can't let Shandong become chaotic.

Zhou Zhiruo didn't know much about military affairs, so naturally he wouldn't say anything, but frowned and said: "Your Majesty, this Shandong East Road seems to be stable, but in fact, it is outside of gold and jade, and it is ruined. In the event of another natural disaster, maybe this big situation will collapse in an instant......"

Lu Chengqi knew that Zhou Zhiruo was not alarmist, and there was indeed this possibility. Before Lu Chengqi could say anything, Zhou Zhiruo lowered his head and said, "...... Huangzhuang told his concubines that in the fields and swamps on Shandong East Road, there were many newborn eggs like corn. ”

When Lu Chengqi heard this, he "chuckled" in his heart, and was so shocked that he couldn't speak, and only after a long time did he say: "Locusts! ”

Zhou Zhiruo said: "Your Majesty also knows about locusts? ”

Lu Chengqi smiled bitterly: "I originally wrote about luck, thinking that this drought was just a temporary natural disaster and would not cause a locust plague, but unexpectedly, the thing I was most worried about was still coming......

Zhou Zhiruo sighed and said heavily: "There is a cloud in the book, 'In June after the great drought, locusts came from the northeast, covered the sky, and went away through the southwest. It was a heavy rain, and the locusts died. In autumn and July, locusts in Xu, Ru, Gon, Shan, Cang, Cai, Qi and Bei. And there were locusts that rose up in the northeast and tended to the southwest, and the sky was like a cloud. Its insect is as small as corn, spinning as big as a fly for several days, and can jump in groups, and it is called a worm. And for a few days, that is, the flocks flew, and they were called locusts. Where it stops, the beak keeps gnawing. In a few more days, the child was conceived. The son of the earth, the eighteenth day to return to the locust, the worm to the locust, if it is born, the cause of the disaster is widespread. The locusts shall be born at the end of the great ze, and shall also dry up suddenly. Therefore, those who dry up the locusts, the original locusts, want to get rid of the locusts, and try to do the same. Covering the sky and the sun, the sun is endless. The grass and trees and animals are left behind, and they are hungry and die. In autumn, the locusts are fed up, the fields are exhausted, the people are hungry, and the locusts are hunted for food'. Your Majesty, the plague of locusts is not incurable, and if you can catch it by the people, you will definitely be able to conquer the sky. ”

Lu Chengqi thought about it, it was not wrong, he had been to Yunnan before he was reborn, and he had also eaten fried locusts, which looked scary, but it was actually delicious. Hearing Zhou Zhiruo's words, he nodded and said, "With the "Da Shun Minbao" in hand, this matter is worry-free. However, Huangzhuang still has to arrest first, so that the people can trust it. Alas, it would be better if it could be prevented. ”

"If you lose the east, you will reap the mulberry." Zhou Zhiruo said with a smile, "If the locust plague can be dealt with in this way, there will be no more in the future, and I will not be afraid." ”

Lu Chengqi nodded, and suddenly remembered one more thing: "By the way, you can also store some chickens, ducks and geese and other poultry, this thing can kill locusts, no need to feed, they forage for food." If the poultry can eat all the eggs first, the locust plague will not be able to bear it. ”

Zhou Zhiruo silently remembered it in her heart and said, "The concubine will do it......

Lu Chengqi knew her temperament, she had always been in a hurry, and she would do whatever she wanted, so he hurriedly grasped her softness and said softly: "What's the hurry, I still want to listen to Huangzhuang's harvest this year!" ”

The hand was slippery, Lu Chengqi couldn't help but stroke it a few more times, Zhou Zhiruo twitched lightly in shame, and found that his slender hand fell into Lu Chengqi's "wolf claw", and it was held very tightly, and it didn't move at all, so he didn't do useless work. "Didn't Your Majesty want to listen to the concubine's report on the harvest, like this...... How can a concubine be able to report it? ”

Lu Chengqi deliberately teased: "Then don't report it yet......

Zhou Zhiruo glanced at him, even this white eye is also full of charm. Lu Chengqi caught it for a while, and then "reluctantly" let go of his "wolf claws". Zhou Zhiruo's breathing was a little short, and she said angrily: "You are ...... That's it, it's really a rival in a previous life. ”

Lu Chengqi smiled, didn't speak, picked up the account book, and looked at it. This double-entry bookkeeping method was handed over to Zhou Zhiruo, but it was carried forward by the talented people of this era, and he used square words to write extraordinary. The Han people are really too smart, and anything in their hands will be "broken". This double-entry accounting method is incomprehensible to even Lu Chengqi.

Zhou Zhiruo saw Lu Chengqi's frowning appearance and said with a smile: "Your Majesty can't understand it?" ”

Lu Chengqi didn't hide it at all, if he couldn't understand it, he couldn't understand it, so he was not embarrassed: "This ...... Doesn't seem to be double-entry accounting? ”

Zhou Zhiruo sighed and said, "Your Majesty's method is good, it's just ...... It's just a little more complicated......"

Sighing, Lu Chengqi knew that this was the case. Double-entry accounting, according to the Han people's thinking, is indeed more complicated. But it's not absolute, it's mainly too heavy on "numbers", if you have a bit of mathematical foundation, this double-entry accounting method is not difficult, what is difficult is to understand.

Zhou Zhiruo could see Lu Chengqi's loss and said, "Your Majesty can't understand it, the concubine will explain it to Your Majesty." This is the total expenditure of the Royal Village, and this is the total income ......"

Lu Chengqi listened carefully, and finally came to the conclusion that Huangzhuang's profit this year was negative. That is, making ends meet? This...... Doesn't seem like possible? Even if the Royal Bank is controlled by the imperial court, but the Imperial Bank has also invested a lot, how can it be negative?

Zhou Zhiruo explained: "Your Majesty, the Huangzhuang has spent a lot this year. In addition to the Royal Roads University, the Ordnance Superintendent, the Dockyard, and the Royal Military Academy, there are also new welfare homes, almshouses, pharmacies, and Mongolian schools...... The main thing is to buy real estate, so that I can't make ends meet. But these assets are only delivered this year, and they will be profitable next year......"

Lu Chengqi was speechless for a while, the real estate was expensive before he was reborn, and he almost floated to the sky. After being reborn, this property is still expensive. He also understands that this is all the Chinese's local complex at work, and if there is no room, there is no bottom in his heart. Even though Chang'an City provides public housing rentals, most of these people are in the suburbs and have real estate. It can be said that the Han people are all extremely poor in their lives, in the pursuit of real estate, land, with these, there is a home. The family is a country and a country, and only when there is a family can there be a country, this is the mind of most Han people, and it is also the root cause of the suffering of the Han people in the past. Obviously, if you gather all the strength of the Han people, you can drive away the invaders, but you are born for petty profits, and you forget the allusion that "the skin does not have hair and will be attached", which is sad and lamentable.
