"If you have something to say, let it go! This official is very busy!" This tone, which obviously carried an eviction order, could not have any effect in Feng Wuji's ears.

But when it came to business, Feng Wuji's eyes burst out with excitement, "Lord Lu, do you want to get rich?"

"Uh......" After Lu Sheng was stunned for a short time, he looked at Feng Wuji silently, "What kind of way have you found again?"

"Look at it, what did I bring you?" Feng Wuji patted the brocade box beside him and said with a look of dedication.

Lu Sheng came to the brocade box suspiciously, and gently opened the brocade box. The brocade box contained neither gold nor silver jewelry, nor anything precious, but a box of clay.

"Brother Feng, what do you mean by that?"

"Look what's in the soil?"

Feng Wuji's words landed, but Lu Sheng's face changed suddenly. Soon, cyan larvae like caterpillars emerged from the soil.

Even if he saw the tragic murder scene, Lu Sheng's face would not change much, but these larvae made Lu Sheng's face turn pale.

Because of these...... They were all larvae of locusts.

Locusts, in this day and age, there is no solution.

Lu Sheng once read some episodes, saying that in ancient times, when he resisted the plague of locusts, he mobilized the people to eat locusts? The extremely hungry people may really eat locusts, but in the face of the overwhelming locusts, the people will not be able to destroy much even if they eat enough.

And locusts are only delicious when they are fried at high temperatures, and if you try them raw, they will disgust you.

There are not so many foodies in this era, and no one is quick to accept locusts and willing to eat them. Moreover, I can't finish eating.

Locusts cross the border, and not a single grass grows, this sentence is definitely not an exaggeration.

"Where did this come from?" Lu Sheng's voice sounded, with a strong killing intent in his cold tone.

"My little sister sent someone to send it, and she asked me to pass it on to you, I don't know where it came from. But looking at this meaning, there may be a locust plague somewhere.

Brother Lu, let's join forces and hoard food, and when the locust plague appears, food prices will definitely soar. It's not a matter of quadrifying or five times at all, and it's hard to be able to directly multiply him tenfold. How?

"Fuck your sister!" Lu Sheng burst out suddenly.

“...... Okay!" Feng Wuji looked at Lu Sheng in a daze, and the ghost sent a reply.

"Who else are you talking to about this business?" Lu Sheng came back from the shock and asked with a warning staring at Feng Wuji's eyes.

"As soon as I knew about it, the first thing I thought of was you. ”

"That's good, you are not allowed to reveal half a word about this matter, otherwise...... Immediately beheaded! Your plan to make a fortune is also resting early, dare to stretch out half a finger and cut it immediately!"

Looking at Lu Sheng's solemn expression, Feng Wuji smiled!

"In Chuzhou, your words are still useful, but ...... elsewhere" Suddenly, Feng Wuji's face changed suddenly, and he looked at Lu Sheng's gloomy and blue expression again, and his pupils shrank suddenly.

"Impossible...... How could it be that in Chuzhou, locusts did not appear out of thin air for no reason, if larvae were found in Chuzhou, then there should have been locusts crossing the border in the past two years.

How can it be...... There have been no locusts in Chuzhou for decades, so how could it be in Chuzhou? Moreover, a locust plague occurred in the northern grasslands the year before last, and later it was blocked by a large army outside the pass and never entered the Central Plains at all. It can't be...... Chuzhou, right?"

Lu Sheng didn't want it to be Chuzhou, but if it wasn't Chuzhou, why would Feng Wuxue let Feng Wuji send this box of soil full of locust larvae to Lu Sheng?

Lu Sheng gave an eviction order, and Feng Wuji left in a gloomy manner. And Lu Sheng returned to Xuantian Mansion with this box of dirt with a solemn face. Sitting in the office, Lu Sheng didn't even dare to open the box again, let alone think that there would be a locust plague in Chuzhou.

Is it a coincidence? Or is it a deliberate game?

If it's a coincidence? But if someone lays it out, then the degree of madness of this person is beyond Lu Sheng's imagination.

As soon as it was discovered that official grain had been stolen and sold, a locust plague was immediately introduced. If, if Lu Sheng and they did not know anything about this, if they had not discovered in advance the theft of official food and the possible outbreak of locusts.

Overnight, locusts were overwhelming, and the crops that were about to be harvested were wiped out overnight, so how could the people of Chuzhou live?

Chuzhou has two crops a year, and most of the harvest in May is taught to the state, and the rest of the people will not keep it for themselves, but will sell it all to grain merchants for money.

Only the harvest in October is the income of the people for a year's work, and by September, there is almost no surplus food in the people's homes, and the poor people are very good at pinching the time to live.

There is still enough food to eat for a few days, and whether it can last until the day of the harvest is carefully calculated. Every October, after the wheat harvested by the people is dried in the sun, the rest will be sold to major grain merchants except to ensure a year's ration.

Originally, this year was a good year, and the ears of wheat were thicker than usual. However, there is still a month to go before the harvest, and this is the most critical month.

The current ears of wheat, although they are large, are empty inside, and the grains are full, almost all of them have been plump in this month. But at this time, locusts were found.

If the people lack the harvest in October, how will the people without food survive this cold winter? And when the people were waiting to be fed, they found that the granary of Chuzhou was one-third empty?

Once this matter is revealed, it will not only cause disaster victims, but more likely riots and wars.

Moreover, Chuzhou is located in the golden ratio position of 19 states, with Jeju Wuzhou to the east, Shuzhou Yungui to the south, Qizhou Central Plains to the north, and Qinzhou Lanzhou to the west. Once the locusts break out unexpectedly, the place where they will harm will be most of the land of China.

The consequences are simply heaven and earth shattering.

There is no rooster crowing for hundreds of miles, no one is inhabited for thousands of miles, thousands of mountains and birds fly away, and thousands of paths and people disappear...... That's the apocalyptic scenario.

It took a long time for Lu Sheng to stretch out his trembling hand and slowly open the brocade box, the soil in the box squirmed slightly, and locusts drilled around in the soil.

Closing the brocade box, Lu Sheng's breathing slowly calmed down.

"Someone!"

"Your Excellency!"

"Call all the cadres above the department level. ”

Soon, the room was full. Lu Sheng walked into the conference room with heavy steps, and when he saw Lu Sheng's face, everyone was sitting in danger. I have been following Lu Sheng for so many years, and I have never seen Lu Sheng show such a shattered expression.

Lu Sheng sat down slowly, his eyes swept over the crowd, "You are all personally transferred to my side, many of you were personally recruited by me, and I have absolute trust in you."

Now, I have a mission for you, mission level, top secret!"

Hearing the word top secret, everyone's faces changed in unison. Since the establishment of Xuantian Mansion, tasks have been graded. And top secret is a level of secrecy, which means that this mission must not leak the slightest rumor.

And what can be used as a top secret, once it is leaked, the blow to Xuantian Mansion or the entire Chuzhou will be devastating.

"I want you to personally go to all the grain fields in Chuzhou to find out if there are larvae in the soil under the grain fields in Chuzhou......"

"What larvae?" asked Gai Ying, confused.

"Locust larvae!"

Four words, like a thunderbolt from the sky, exploded in everyone's minds. Locust larvae, it is not necessary to say that everyone can realize the seriousness of the matter at the first time.

No one spoke, and no one talked about what the locust larvae came from? Everyone looked at Lu Sheng and waited for the next step.

"After the investigation, the results are not allowed to be written down but come back directly to report to me, the speed must be fast!"

"Yes!"

"The meeting is adjourned, and I will wait here for your news. ”

The surface of Chuzhou is still so calm. People went out to work as usual, and the people who cultivated the fields came to the grain fields as usual to see the ears of wheat and estimate when they could be harvested.

Throughout Chuzhou, everyone is immersed in the joy of life getting better and better. Unbeknownst to them, a nightmare disaster is quietly approaching.

At noon, Sun You, who was the fastest, rushed back first, and with him, there were fifteen small boxes.

Sun You came to Lu Sheng's conference room with a solemn expression, and then placed more than a dozen boxes in front of Lu Sheng.

"This is a subordinate changed twelve places, and the distance between the twelve places is more than a hundred miles. Without exception, the soil of more than a dozen grain fields is full of larvae, and the number is huge. ”

Lu Sheng looked at the sample soil one by one, and the last luck was instantly shattered. The larvae grow very fast, and most of them have formed cocoons, and as long as they break out of the cocoon, they will destroy the world.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Jian and the others also came back one after another, and the news they brought back pushed Lu Sheng deeper into the abyss.

Lu Jian and other congenital masters, all of them hurried with light skills, and within one day, they were crisscrossing Chuzhou's east, west, north and south. The exhaustion of fighting brought bad news.

Almost all the grain fields in Chuzhou are densely covered with insect cocoons. And once the cocoons break out of the soil, the wheat fields above will be wiped out.

But now, even though they are all at the top of their martial arts, they are helpless against the little insects. It is easy for them to destroy one egg, but they are helpless to destroy hundreds of millions of eggs. Besides, after the eggs are eliminated, what will happen to the grain on them?

There is less than a month left before the harvest can be harvested, and the people are waiting for this batch of grain to live.

"You are not allowed to reveal this matter, keep it a secret, and I will go to He Taishou to discuss. Lu Sheng left this sentence, and his figure disappeared in front of everyone's eyes in a flash.

Taishou Mansion, He Xingzhi's office.

What he had in front of him was the official business he was going to complete today, but for some reason, he had been restless and unable to write for a long time since this morning. There was a confusion in my mind, and the words in front of me kept floating around in front of me like flies.

Yesterday, he reported directly to Ji Zheng through the secret line, and was scolded by Ji Zheng with his head and face. He Xingzhi has been in power for twenty or thirty years, and it is the first time that he has fallen behind such a big bad deed.

If other emperors were to be replaced, He Xingzhi would have been taken down and punished by the emperor a long time ago. But fortunately, he met an Emperor Rende. Ji Zheng rarely loses his temper, because he has long understood that getting angry will not help change the status quo.

After scolding He Xingzhi, Ji Zheng put forward two requirements, the first is to investigate to the end and never tolerate it, and the second is to recover the stolen and sold official grain. If the official grain is recovered, then it will be offset by the merits and demerits of He Xing's new policy, and if the official grain cannot be recovered, all levels in Chuzhou will be dealt with strictly.
