She turned her head to look at him, her gaze becoming more determined, word by word.

"Otherwise, if he found out, he would be disappointed in me, I can't!"

There was an emotion in his eyes that she couldn't understand, and he suddenly smiled and reached out to touch her head.

"No, he knows you're going to try, and he's going to be proud of you."

.

To start preparing for the extermination of locusts in advance, the workload is huge, and it is not something that Adam can do alone.

She had to get the support of Taishou first.

Taishou listened to her speculation, laughed and waved his hand: "How is it possible!" Now there has been no locust plague for many years, and you are worrying about it. ”

Seeing Adam's serious face and constant emphasis, he finally put away his attitude of not caring.

Taishou said seriously: "Niece, it's not that I don't care about the people, but this kind of unknown thing can't be predicted, even if it is said, who can believe it?" ”

Adam nodded helplessly.

This is true, even in later generations, at the end of feudal society, for locust plagues, it is mainly to make up for and provide relief in the later stage, and almost no one can think of preventing it in advance.

Adam remembers that it was not until modern times that the concept of locust plague prevention was invented.

The main way to exterminate locusts in modern times is to spray insect pesticides with airplanes, which is certainly not possible in this society today.

To prevent locust infestations, we can reduce the number of locust spawning grounds, such as converting dry land into ponds and planting a large number of trees, but this is not feasible at present.

People can't even afford to eat, so she asked people to plant trees, which really fulfilled the sentence "why not eat minced meat"!

There are only two things she can do right now: reduce the locust food source and cultivate and protect the locust's natural enemies.

"Hanyang County is remote, although there are wealthy families, but everyone is actually living a hard life haha, who doesn't want to live a good life?"

Adam smiled at Taishou: "I have my own method, and I also ask Taishou to invite the patriarch of the wealthy family here, I have something to see with them." ”

Tai Shou looked at her for a moment, and saw that her eyes were firm and clear, without the slightest perfunctory and joking, and finally took a deep breath and nodded.

"Well, I believe you."

Recently, a rumor has spread in Hanyang County.

It is said that the girl of the Chang family who came from the capital, Tuo Taishou invited all the patriarchs of wealthy families to go, and then took out a pot of flowers.

"That's not a flower! Ordinary flowers that produce fluffy white clouds? It must be a fairy flower from the sky! ”

"Fluffy white clouds? You're kidding, how could there be anything like that? ”

"I'm not kidding, it's true! The granddaughter of my uncle's neighbor's brother's third aunt's nephew's aunt worked as a maid in the Taishou Mansion, and she saw it with her own eyes! ”

"You said you saw it, then tell me, what does that cloud look like?"

"I've heard that the clouds are immaculate, light but tough, made up of countless tiniest and finest things, and are easily brushed! They can be easily glued together or separated, and can be combined to create a variety of shapes! ”

The people who squatted at the corner of the street and listened to the excitement suddenly sounded an exclamation, most of them did not believe it, pouted and listened only as a joke, and someone casually shook his legs and asked:

"What do you want to do when the Chang girl takes out this pot of flowers?"

The members of the Uncle Party who brought the top-secret news looked around mysteriously and lowered their voices:

It is said that the Chang family girl claimed that this kind of cloud can be spun, the output is huge, and it is also warm, 10,000 times better than linen! She said she wanted each of us to be able to wear the fabric woven by the clouds! ”
