Great Wei Nengchen

"What is the governor going to do~~Could it be..."

Under the terrified eyes of everyone, the two soldiers shook their hands and shook them a few times, and the whole basket of locusts fell into the huge cauldron, and there was a sound of "sizzling" immediately, followed by a strong fragrance. It floated out, dangling leisurely, and got into everyone's nostrils!

The boiling oil was extremely hot, and after a few ups and downs in it, the locusts turned golden yellow. The guards immediately fished them out with a strainer and put them on a large tray. I distributed a few of them to everyone attending the banquet, and I didn’t forget to tell them, “Eat it while it’s hot, it’s delicious and crispy!”

Everyone has seen locusts, but no one has eaten them. At this time, plates of fried locusts with complete body and full of fragrance were served, which immediately caused a lot of screams at the banquet!

"Great governor, you must not eat this thing~~"

"Locusts are a gift from God. If you eat them, your stomach will be pierced and rotten, which is terrible~"

Looking at Xiao Yi in the handsome position, he neither refuted nor got angry, but stretched out his hand to pinch a fat fried locust, and threw it directly into his mouth, chewing with a 'quack' sound, and then his neck shook, Just swallowed it!

"All things and people bestowed by God are meant to be enjoyed. Little locusts, how can the governor not eat them!" The wind swept through the clouds, and the plate was quickly eaten up. Xiao Yi was still unsatisfied, and asked 'Fat Liu' to serve it up again. share!

There are no citations, and there is not much reason. If you want to break people's fear of locusts, the best way is one word~~eat!

"What kind of insect is a godsend, what can't be killed, what's the result, isn't it just a delicacy on the dining table?" After eating a few more locusts, Xiao Yi suddenly patted his forehead, as if he had forgotten something, and then looked Looking at everyone apologetically~~ "I forgot to tell everyone, the meat pie you ate just now is actually stuffed with locusts, is it still delicious?"

"What? Locust~~Meatloaf~~I~~vomit!"

Xiao Yi's soft words were like a thunderbolt, which slammed into everyone's hearts, and sent the "Three Souls and Seven Souls" flying. Vomiting continuously, not to mention that I just ate it, even yesterday’s I can’t wait to vomit it out~~

Of course, there are also a small number of people who are fine. They all felt that the meatloaf tasted wrong. Out of caution, they didn't dare to eat it. They just drank a little porridge. It can be described as schadenfreude~~

"That's right!... It's right for you to be greedy. The ancients said: 'Disease enters from the mouth'. I felt that there was something wrong with this meatloaf, so I didn't take a bite. Haha, you fools don't even think about it. Is the feast of 'Ghost Face Xiao Lang' so delicious? I don’t need to pay too much attention~~~”

After laughing at those companions, these few 'survivors' found that Xiao Yi in the handsome position was looking at them with a strange look, full of pity, intolerance, and a little bit of mischief~~

"I forgot to tell you, not only the meatloaf is stuffed with locusts, but the rice porridge is also filled with locust powder. This food is not only delicious, but also can cure 'night blindness'. If you want, there are many in the back tent. When you go Each person brings a few catties, which is regarded as a return gift from the governor!"

"Ouch! ~~Wow!"

Now it's all over, those who only drank porridge and didn't eat cakes also started to vomit wildly, and their faces were ashen, and the vomiting was even more tragic. On the contrary, those people in front were much better at this time, without him, their hearts were just balanced !

"Why am I the only one who ate locusts, but you didn't? Now it's alright. Not only did you eat locust powder, but you also ate locust powder. It's like crushing the locusts given by God. We still eat locusts. Complete!"

People are not afraid of bad luck, but they are only afraid of being the only one. Now it’s all right, everyone has a share in eating locusts, God thunders and carries them together, and dies together when the intestines are pierced, even if they are buried together after death, there is no problem~~

………………………………………………………………………………

There is a famous saying that goes well, "Spit it~ spit it~ you will get used to it slowly!"

This is the case in the big tent. After vomiting for a long time, everyone didn't want to vomit anymore. Instead, they felt a little hungry. There was no way, all the things in the stomach were vomited out, and even the food they ate yesterday was kidnapped and ran away. It's no wonder they weren't hungry Woolen cloth!

When people are hungry, they are most afraid of seeing other people eat. When everyone with an empty stomach watched Xiao Yi in the handsome position eat a locust and a mouthful of good wine, one can imagine the depression in their hearts, "Why would he eat it?" The mouth is full of oil, but I vomit in the dark?"

"Damn it, if you eat one, you will die, and if you eat a hundred, you will die. Could it be that God can strike me twice with lightning? Even if I die, I will be a hungry ghost!" Wanting to understand the reason, everyone felt confused. No longer afraid, some boldly returned to the seat, picked up the locust meatloaf, picked up the locust rice porridge~~eat!

In the world, there is nothing serious except death. If you are not even afraid of death, then there is nothing to be afraid of. The people who hold the heart of death eat their mouths full of oil, and finally pat their stomachs. Apart from feeling almost stuffed to death, It's no big deal, who said locusts can't eat, on the contrary, it's delicious!

The Chinese are a well-known "foodie nation" with a long history of food culture. There are many varieties of food and complicated cooking methods, which are unique in the world. No one will be afraid of the food in their mouths. Greedy, being able to eat is a blessing!

"Everyone, from today onwards, we will work together to exterminate the locusts. They eat the crops in the field, so let's eat them and see who can eat them better!" Throwing the last locust into his mouth, Xiao Yi stood up, Pointing to the sky, on behalf of the "foodie nation" to war against the "Zerg"!

(The weather is too cold, my fingers are stiff, and typing is a bit slow, everyone forgive me!)

568. Chapter 568 Deworming for the whole people

"The little prefect, the great governor, the greedy wolf star, descended to the mortal world, holding the dragon-slaying sword in his hand, and slaughtered millions of troops. The locusts spread their wings and flew thousands of miles, and fell into the gate of hell..." In the bursts of clear nursery rhymes, a vigorous The "locust eradication operation" has begun!

Implementing a government order from the bottom up is tantamount to sailing against the current, making it difficult to move an inch. Conversely, implementing it from the top down is sailing along the current, making thousands of miles a day...

After eating the 'locust cake' and drinking the 'locust porridge', those officials and powerful people who were originally against the 'locust extermination order' immediately made a 180-degree turn and became Xiao Yi's hardcore supporters , also became the leader of the locust extermination operation!

These people run around the fields every day, and carry an iron pot with them, urging the common people to boldly hunt and kill locusts and protect the crops. Throw the locusts into the oil pan, and then serve them with good wine, have a full meal, and by the way, publicize that this is a new way of eating invented by the governor, and finally, under the eyes of the people in fear, admiration, and worship, a locust disaster Go to the district!

With these officials and tyrants leading by example, the common people finally took action. Although their knowledge is limited, they are not stupid. At least they will follow suit. Even those nobles who have always been reluctant to live dare to swallow locusts. Our lives are worthless What are ordinary people afraid of?

Ever since, all the way to eat, all the way to publicize, the people of the whole Sanyang County have taken action to fight against the approaching 'locust army', and their most effective way to deal with it is~~eat!

"Food is the most important thing for the people, and eating is the kingly way." In the past, there was no food, and everyone had to suffer from hunger. Now it is different. The people who are already hungry and red-eyed woke up. Flying food, so why not be polite, it's pretty good to eat!

Every morning, as soon as the sun came out, hordes of hungry people rushed into the fields, holding gauze nets, baskets, bags...there were so many locusts that it was easy to catch them. Zhang, after running around the field, it is almost full. Once the pockets are pricked and carried home, it is enough for the whole family to eat a few meals of old snacks. It is much more labor-saving than farming and harvesting food!

As for how to eat it, there are various ways to eat it. "Fried locusts" can only be eaten by the nobles. Ordinary people don't have so much oil in their homes, but the wisdom of the working people is infinite. If there is no oil, they can be boiled in water. Roasted on the tile, just as crisp and delicious!

Under such a favorable situation, Xiao Yi took the opportunity to put forward the slogan of "eating locusts as food", and set an example by serving wine with locusts. In addition, the food in the army has also changed. In order to save food, all soldiers The rations are always half rice and half worms, even the salaries of those officers. Half of them receive money and rations, and the other half are several large baskets of locust powder. Take it home and eat slowly. If you can’t finish it by yourself, mobilize the whole family. Eat together, if not, can you still give it to relatives and friends!

Ever since, various locust-like foods have been introduced, such as locust buns, locust dumplings, locust meat pies, steamed locusts, dry-roasted locusts... They are definitely refurbished every day without repetition!

Some smart people will dry the locusts and then grind them into powder, and put them in the cellar for storage, just like storing grain. The baskets are stacked one by one, which makes people feel at ease, and finally no longer has to worry about being caught. starving!

At the same time, the medicinal value of locust powder was also publicized. It was personally proved by a master doctor (that is, Xiao Yi himself), that regular consumption of locust powder can effectively treat night blindness, insomnia, asthma, cartilage...etc. Disease, can be called a peerless medicine~~

The reason is also very simple. Isn’t the locust sent down by God? The insects that come from the sky naturally have a little fairy energy to treat some folk diseases. Isn’t this normal? Yeah~

"What should I do if the child wets the bed? ~~ Take locust powder!"

"What should I do if a woman has irregular menstruation? ~~Take locust powder!"

"What should I do if the man's kidney deficiency fails? ~~ Or take locust powder!"

............................................................

The medicine can cure all diseases when it arrives. There are two big baskets for one course of treatment. You can eat it freely. Even if you can’t cure the disease, at least it can fill your stomach. The biggest advantage is that it is cheap. With the food money, you can buy two stone locust powder, which one do you want to eat?

So much so that locust powder has changed from a special food in the disaster area to a kind of medicinal material, and there is even a market dedicated to buying locust powder. Every day, people come and go, and prosperity is prosperous. Xiao Yi strongly supports this, "Eat Locusts, supplementing calcium is definitely a great thing that benefits the country and the people. As for the effect, one locust can hold two eggs..."

Under such a huge political propaganda, Shanyang, Yanzhou, and the entire Central Plains were shocked, and the wave of eating locusts quickly swept across. The old women, old and young all opened their mouths wide, and the sound of "click" was endless. The army of locusts took the lead, not only effectively controlling the harm of locust plagues, but also solving the problem of insufficient funds and food for disaster relief, and at the same time stabilizing social security. The Han people are the most simple people in the world. Then you will never rise up to rebel, and the world will be stable!

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………

In autumn and September, the locust extermination operation has been going on for more than a month, and almost all the people are eating with their mouths open. Even so, the locust plague is still going on. The vitality of these little insects is too tenacious. Just fly into the field and lay eggs, and it won't be long before this place becomes a paradise for locusts until they are eaten clean!

It only takes more than ten days for locusts to breed at a time, and they have a large nest in their lifetime. It takes ten months for human beings to have children. There is only one baby in a litter, and there are at most two. Newborn locusts can eat crops, but newborn children It is impossible to eat locusts, which causes a growing gap in the number of the two sides. Even if the "foodie nation" has enough appetite, they still cannot eat locusts...

Faced with this situation, Xiao Yi gritted his teeth, stomped his feet, and gave the order again~~ Set fire to the fields in the disaster area, even if a locust flew in, he would use the fire to burn it up and kill it!

Who knows that as soon as the order was issued, it was immediately opposed by the whole people. Even those officials and powerful people ran over crying and shouting to dissuade them. Seeing that they are all fringed, and burned out in a big fire, I feel distressed!

Furthermore, they also feel sorry for the locusts in the ground. They used to be disasters, but now they are treasures. I don’t know how many people live by preying on locusts. Some businesses even made a lot of money selling locust powder, and now they are burned. Isn't that equivalent to burning the 'God of Wealth'?

Besides, it is already September, and the autumn wind blows and the weather turns cold. At that time, the locusts in the field will disappear without a trace. Why use the method of burning jade and stone to burn the fields?

Facing all kinds of questions, Xiao Yi didn't explain much, but invited those officials to have a feast again, this time it was not eating bugs, but a real feast, with good wine and food prepared, how would you know that these guys actually Eating locusts is addictive. Many people bring their own fried locusts and throw them in their mouths like snacks.

After eating and drinking enough, Xiao Yi led the crowd to a field that had been eaten by locusts, and began to ask his soldiers to dig out the yellow-brown soil and turn it all over!
