The next morning, Li Zexuan woke up from his sleep. He pushed open the window and found that the rain that had been raining all night had stopped. The fresh smell of the soil after the rain hit him in the face. He immediately felt refreshed. After practicing the Sutra of Supreme Mystery for a while, Li Zexuan walked out of the room.
In the front room, Han Lizheng, Wang Zhong, and the others had returned and were chatting. Li Zexuan went forward to greet them and went to wash up.
After eating the breakfast that Han Yuxi had carefully prepared, Li Zexuan said goodbye to Han Lizheng in the yard.
"Uncle Han, sorry for disturbing you these two days. Uncle Han, please pay attention to the business. If you have any problems, please find Uncle Wang or go directly to Chang 'an to find me. I'll be waiting for your fruit wine in Chang 'an. "
"Young master, don't worry. I'll take care of the fruit wine. The road is slippery after the rain. Young master, please be careful. "
"Well, it's okay." Li Zexuan turned around and looked at Han Yuxi, who was leaning against the door frame and silently watching him. This girl had noticed that her eyes were red since she saw her in the morning. Could it be that the story she told last night was too sad and she cried all night? He was also reluctant to part with this beautiful girl, but he had to go back. This was not his home.
Li Zexuan actually enjoyed the quiet and elegant feeling when talking to Han Yuxi, but he didn't know what Han Yuxi thought of him. Maybe she had a little affection for him. He had a lot to say to her at this moment, but it was obviously not the right time. Thousands of words turned into a sigh in the end.
"Yuxi, take care!"
After that, he turned around and left with the group.
…
Back home, Li Zexuan was dragged by his mother to "enjoy" her mother's love. He also told his mother about the purchase of the fruit wine. Mrs. Li didn't care much about the business. Since her son felt that it could make money, she would certainly support him. She gave Li Zexuan a thousand strings of cash for him to use first. As for his father, his mother would talk to his mother.
Li Zexuan was very happy to receive a thousand strings of cash from the "chairman" of his family. It was good to be a rich second generation. If he liked a business, he could just ask his mother for money to invest. It was not like the time travel novels he read in his previous life. Some protagonists traveled to ancient times and had no money. They had to work hard to make glass and perfume to get their first venture capital.
Li Zexuan said that it was too brain-intensive. He didn't want to do it for the time being. His family was already so rich. He didn't need to invent those inventions. What he needed to do now was to think of ways to spend money. A few days ago, his mother was still encouraging him to be a prodigal son. He had a long way to go.
When he arrived at the West Court, he was about to go back to the study to plan the modification of the fruit wine when he found Lan 'er waiting for him in the side hall of the West Court.
"Lan 'er, what's in the thing you're holding?"
Li Zexuan pointed at a thick bamboo tube in Lan 'er's hand and asked.
"This is Lan 'er's general, Wei Qing. He's amazing. Brother, let me show you."
Lan 'er handed over the bamboo tube in her hand as if she was presenting a treasure.
Li Zexuan was puzzled. Wei Qing? What the hell? He took the bamboo tube and lifted the lid slightly. When he looked inside, he saw a green locust. Only then did he remember that the source of the conflict in the threshing field of the Han Family Village yesterday was the few of them fighting the locust. He didn't expect Lan 'er to name this locust Wei Qing. Li Zexuan couldn't help but find it funny.
However, Li Zexuan's smile froze on his face before it could bloom. Then, his expression changed slightly. The way he looked at "Wei Qing" became a little uncertain.
Li Zexuan didn't study the history of the Tang Dynasty in detail in his previous life. However, he still knew some of the major events that happened in the Tang Dynasty. Some of them were from novels, and some were from television dramas.
Li Zexuan remembered that in the second year of the Zhenguan Era, the Tang Dynasty had an unprecedented locust plague. At that time, the locusts covered the sky and swept across the entire Guanzhong Plain.
The locusts covered the sky and poured down in torrents. Everywhere they passed, the land was barren. Even the trees and weeds couldn't escape from the locusts, not to mention the crops.
Last year, Li Ergang and Xieli of the Turks had signed the humiliating Wei River Pact precisely to buy time for the Great Tang to breathe. The people of the Great Tang had just welcomed the peace that they had longed for. Who would have thought that they would have to face this apocalyptic disaster?
In his previous life, Li Zexuan saw on some forums that when the locusts came, there were rumors among the people that this was God's punishment for Li Ergang killing his brothers and imprisoning his father to seize the throne. Li Ergang couldn't defend himself. The history books recorded:
Taizong entered the garden to inspect the crops. When he saw the locusts, he plucked a few of them and cursed, "Man's life is the grain. If you eat it, you will harm the people. The people have sinned. You have spirit, but when you eat my heart, you will not harm the people. "When he was about to swallow the locusts, he admonished him to the left and right," I am afraid it will become a disease. You must not. "Taizong said," I hope to remove the disaster, why should I avoid the disease? "
When Li Zexuan saw this, he was quite shocked. It was not without reason that Li Er had become an eternal emperor. His breadth of mind, his bearing, and his charisma were things that ordinary people could not hope to achieve.
Li Zexuan remembered that under the post, there were some keyboard warriors who commented that Li Ergang swallowed the locusts for show, to show that he loved the people like his own children. Li Zexuan snorted at this. Li Ergang swallowed the locusts despite the danger. No matter what his purpose was, he was worthy of respect. Li Zexuan asked himself if he was himself, he wouldn't dare to swallow the locusts.
Although the Tang Dynasty was beginning to show its prosperity, with the current foundation of the Tang Dynasty, it obviously couldn't withstand this catastrophe. Once the locusts came, starving people would be everywhere. There might even be a tragedy of people swapping their children for food.
Then the question was, before the locusts came, what could he do for this era? Although he hadn't been in this world for long, there were already many people who cared about him and the people he cared about. For example, his family, Han Lizheng, Han Yuxi, and the simple and adorable villagers of the Han Family Village. At this moment, he realized that he had fallen in love with this era and the people of the Tang Dynasty.
"Brother, brother?"
Lan 'er noticed that Li Zexuan was staring at her "Wei Qing" without moving. She pushed his arm.
"Oh, Lan 'er, go play with Xiao He and Xiao Xi first. I have something to do now. I will tell you a story tonight. "
Li Zexuan was interrupted by Lan 'er and said to Lan' er.
"Oh, then you must remember to tell Lan 'er a story tonight."
Lan 'er was a little unhappy. She wanted to come over to show off her invincible general "Wei Qing" to her brother, but now that her brother seemed to have something to do, she could only leave.
Inside the house.
Li Zexuan was alone, frowning. He was thinking about how the main characters of the novels who had transmigrated to the Tang Dynasty solved the locusts problem. He remembered that some people had brought potatoes with them when they transmigrated and promoted potato farming in the Tang Dynasty. This helped the people of the Tang Dynasty survive the locusts. This was a good idea. But he had transmigrated. Before he transmigrated, he couldn't have brought potatoes with him. What should he do?
Should he tell Li Er directly and ask him to prepare in advance? No, first of all, he couldn't even see Li Er now. Even if he saw him and told him, he wouldn't believe him. Instead, he would be charged with the crime of misleading the public. Secondly, even if Li Er believed him, other than stockpiling food in advance, there were limited ways to do so.
Li Zexuan rubbed his head in frustration. After thinking for a long time, he still couldn't think of a practical solution.
Forget it, let's think about it slowly. After all, there was still more than a year before the locusts.
