Li Chengqian saw the sudden change in everyone's expressions.
He couldn't help but feel particularly comfortable.
All of them knew about this.
Especially since Zhang Feng had said before that this year's locust plague was nothing, but next year's locust plague would be the real horror.
They asked Zhang Feng why.
He directly picked up the hoe and dug a few rakes in the field.
Looking at the densely packed eggs, everyone was terrified.
Damn it.
If it was so serious this year, then wouldn't it be over next year?
But what Zhang Feng didn't tell them was.
Under his medicine, if these eggs were led into the water source of the field during autumn planting, most of the eggs would be indirectly killed.
These things were all for later.
It was Li Shimin's serious warning not to spread it out.
After all, once this matter was leaked out, it would cause chaos in the world.
The reason why Li Chengqian said all this at this time was that he had been taught by Zhang Feng. He also didn't understand why Zhang Feng ordered this matter to be blown out of proportion as soon as he came up the mountain.
He also didn't know what the consequences would be if this matter was spread out. .
But Li Chengqian still decided to do as Zhang Feng said.
At this time, Li Chengqian's words were meaningful. And among these stubborn people, there were also some thoughtful people who silently pondered some rumors they heard a few days ago when they were farming.
And what the recent prosperity of the fried locust eggs meant.
Li Chengqian picked up a crispy fried locust on the table and threw it into his mouth, chewing it until everyone's hair stood on end.
And Li Chengqian wasn't in a hurry. He slowly tasted the fried locust while tasting the white wine he brought. It was very pleasant.
However, he was able to endure it, but not everyone was able to do the same.
Li Chengqian, Cheng Chumo, and the others also minded their own business and ate and drank. At this time, a stubborn person hurriedly went up to the second floor, bowed, and said, "Young Master Li, what you just said, is it true?"
"Is it true?" Li Chengqian knocked on the plate and asked in return, "Then look at the things on this plate. Why did they appear before the locust plague appeared and now appear again?"
"Didn't you go to your field to dig them up?"
With this question, the young man's expression turned even uglier.
His family's situation had already been discovered long ago. Furthermore, his family was not as well-off as these people. It was only because the young master of Minister Zhou of the Chamberlain of Dependencies had some connections that he was able to sneak into this circle. His family only had a few hundred mu of land and some small businesses. They were a true merchant family.
He also relied on his stubborn identity to mingle in this circle and find out some useful information. Or, he could have some business dealings with them and get some help.
Now that he heard Li Chengqian say so, how could he still hold back?
Once the locust plague broke out again, his family's little bit of wealth would be gone.
"Young Master Li, may I trouble you to tell me what to do with the locusts?"
When Li Chengqian heard that, he smiled slightly and said, "About the locusts, my dean is compassionate and trying to think of a solution. After all, you all know that the locust plague this time is all thanks to my dean. However, he also said that the autumn planting this time is the key. If there is a lack of crops at the beginning of spring next year, then in the second half of next year …"
"The autumn planting this time is the key to whether we can safely survive the locust plague next year. After all, the Dean once said that if everyone picks up firewood, the fire will be stronger. Once you only care about protecting yourselves, then … Moreover, the food shortage this time, coupled with the fact that the people can't plant, when the news of the locust plague spreads, I think those angry people have seen what happened in Chang 'an in the past two days. "…"
"When the time comes, do you think you can protect yourselves?"
This time.
All the stubborn people's faces suddenly changed.
In the past few days, the crazy people, because they couldn't buy iron and couldn't carry out the autumn planting, had already broken out in Chang 'an. Today, everyone had heard that the shopkeeper of the Wang Clan's blacksmith shop in Chang' an City was beaten to death.
The Wang Clan!
That's the Wang Clan of Taiyuan!
He was beaten to death by angry people. Even their clan leader and the Emperor couldn't do anything about it …
At this time, when everyone saw that, how could they dare to have any thoughts?
They hurriedly asked, "Then may I ask Young Master Li, what should we do about this matter?"
Seeing that, Li Chengqian looked at Cheng Chumo and the others and said with a smile, "It's very simple. After all, the people just want to have a bite to eat, and grain is their foundation. The grain that you grow and your industries will eventually fall into the hands of the people. If the people are hit by a disaster, do you think you can avoid it?"
"Therefore, this young master has come this time because we are all brothers. I would like to give everyone a piece of advice. That is, if you have iron in your hands, and if you have iron that you are not using, sell it to the people. Not only can you win a good reputation, but you can also let the people remember your name. "…"
"Even if the people are really hit by a disaster, for the sake of your face today, the people won't touch you, and your industries will definitely sell better."
"Our Dean said that everyone should paddle a big boat. Now, do you understand the meaning of this boat?"
"…"
