Just one pregnancy and four babies, but the prince actually pledged his love to her

Therefore, whether for the sake of her and Tuanzi's lives or to protect the babies, she should do her best to rescue more refugees, make them grateful to her, and earn more gratitude points.

However, she also knew that whether they were refugees fleeing north due to floods or victims of locust plagues, a large amount of food was essential if she wanted to rescue them.

Now that the food problem has been solved, she needs to think carefully about how to ensure that refugees can get food reasonably and get rid of despair.

She gave food to the refugees for free without any hesitation.

Suddenly, she was kicked in the lower abdomen. Li Mengyue touched her belly in surprise and said gently, "Baby, you also agree with your mother's idea, right?"

Then Li Mengyue touched her lower abdomen and was kicked lightly again, as if in response to her mother's words.

After Li Mengyue interacted with the baby, her whole mental outlook changed instantly.

If Li Mengyue was just thinking about making more money before, now she is making a lot of money.

She hoped that her children would never have to worry about a small amount of money like she did.

After all, what’s a big deal if it can be solved with money?

Of course not, you just need money.

It doesn't matter. After the locust plague is over, she will focus on her career and make a lot of money. She won't have to worry about money anymore.

The system never expected that this jewelry-for-food exchange would completely inspire Li Mengyue's career ambition.

Ever since she found out she was pregnant with more than one baby, she did have the idea of ​​pursuing a career.

Make more money so that the baby can have a good living environment after it is born.

They are also doing this, whether it is asking the Gongsun family to purchase tree bark and make paper, or cooperating with the Qian family to do tofu business, they are all working hard to make money.

But now it seems that we still need to speed up the process of making money.

Looking up into the distance, you can vaguely see the city wall of Lanlong County.

Li Mengyue secretly made up her mind that after the locust plague was over, she would start working hard to make money.

*

Li Mengyue and five county magistrates were on their way to Lanlong County with a large army of ducks.

Lanlong County Government Office.

Lanlong County Magistrate Zheng Shao sat in the main seat in the conference hall, with a man sitting on each side, namely County Magistrate Zhong Sen and County Lieutenant Jiang Zhong.

The county magistrate Zhong Sen, who was sitting at the bottom, said indifferently: "Sir, how can you just listen to a stranger and order the harvest of rice in the whole county? The rice will be ripe in a few days. How much will be lost today? Have you calculated it?"

When Zheng Shao heard what Zhong Sen said, he said nothing. Instead, he picked up the teacup on the table and used the cup lid to skim the tea leaves while drinking.

After drinking two or three sips of tea, Zhong Sen could not help but say, "Sir, while the people have not finished collecting, you should quickly give the order and stop them from collecting."

"Then do you know what happens wherever a swarm of locusts passes by?"

"Of course there is no grass growing."

"Oh, you know that. I thought you didn't know."

"Sir, this..."

Before Zhong Sen finished speaking, Zheng Shao raised his hand to stop him from saying anything and looked at Jiang Zhong instead.

"Lieutenant Jiang, are you ready?"

"Sir, everything is ready."

"Well, have someone grab the things and let's go."

"Yes, my lord."

Then Zheng Shao stood up and took the county lieutenant Jiang Zhong out of the county government office.

All the yamen runners followed behind him, and the people from Lanlong County were also ready with tools in hand.

The ducks that were obtained from Yang Zhijin two months ago were also gathered together.

Seeing such a grand ceremony, many people were worried that the county magistrate was making a big deal out of nothing.

Some people in the crowd were whispering, discussing whether there would be a locust plague.

“Do you think there will really be a locust plague?”

"That's hard to say, but I don't think the county magistrate will do anything in vain."

"That's right. The county magistrate is very busy every day. How could he think about the locust plague?"

An old man heard this conversation and said seriously: "Even if there is a locust plague, don't you realize that this year is a severe drought? Locust plagues always occur in drought years."

What the old man said was heard clearly by the people around him, and no one doubted the authenticity of the locust plague anymore.

Because the old man who was speaking was someone they all knew and had experienced a locust plague when he was a child.

They had heard from the elders about locust plagues before, especially after the plague, whether it was the fields or the forests, everything was left bare.

There was no food, let alone wild vegetables, not even a weed could be found, and countless people starved to death.

They had heard these words from the old man so many times that they didn't take them seriously and thought he was exaggerating.

Seeing that the county magistrate attached so much importance to the matter, everyone realized the seriousness of the matter.

Magistrate Zheng was unaware of the conversation in the crowd, and instead led his men toward the city gate.

However, County Magistrate Zhong Sen was not giving up and tried his best to persuade County Magistrate Zheng not to let the people harvest the rice as it would result in too great a loss.

"Sir, I don't think there is a locust plague at all. Don't listen to the slander of the treacherous people and waste people's money and time."

County Magistrate Zheng ignored the words and looked up at the sky.

Suddenly he noticed that the sunny sky suddenly turned into dark clouds in the distance.

"Sir, I am right, aren't I? It is going to rain soon. If we don't harvest the rice, we will definitely harvest a lot more after the rain."

County Lieutenant Jiang Zhong noticed that the weather changes were somewhat abnormal. Although he didn't know much about astronomical phenomena, he knew that the air would be very stuffy before it rained.

But this is not the case at all now, and the black spots in the sky don’t look like dark clouds.

Magistrate Zheng saw that the dark clouds were moving very quickly and had a bad premonition in his heart that was about to come true.

But County Magistrate Zhong Sen kept chattering in his ear, and he got angry and turned around and scolded, "Shut up."

"Sir, I..."

"What do you mean? You don't have eyes. You can't see the changes in the sky."

Zhong Sen then looked up at the sky. What he saw was terrible. His face turned pale instantly and he said tremblingly, "Master, I'm not...well."

"I know, get ready quickly."

"Yes, my lord."

When Zhong Sen saw the changes in the sky, he no longer had the energy to persuade County Magistrate Zheng to stop the rice harvest.

Now his mind was filled with the overwhelming locusts. How could there be so many of them?

At the same time, he was also very glad that the county magistrate did not listen to him, otherwise Lanlong County would have become a living hell after today.

"call……"

Zhong Sen breathed a sigh of relief, took the capture net from a yamen runner, and stood behind County Magistrate Zheng.

"Sir, you are wise enough to predict the locust plague in advance. Although the rice in our county was harvested more than ten days in advance, it was not eaten by the locusts and we did not suffer heavy losses."
