Chapter 65 Locust Plague
The child, with red eyes and tears in his eyes, was about to kowtow to Master Cen: "Our Tianshui Village has been hit by a locust plague. We can no longer pay the rent. Please don't capture me and sell me!"
Escort Master Cen quickly stopped the child's actions.
Wang Zifu deduced: "This kid thinks we are servants and thugs sent by the landlord to collect rent."
Seeing that the child didn't trust Escort Cen and the yamen runners at all, Jiang Lili whispered a few words in Xin Yan's ear.
Xin Yan then walked up to the child and said, "Little brother, we are not here to collect rent. We are a group of exiles from the capital. We would like to stay in your Tianshui Village for one night and are ready to discuss matters with your village chief."
"Where are the people in your village?"
When the child saw people of his own age talking to him, he cried less loudly: "Are you really not here to collect the rent?"
He looked at the long procession of exiles, including the elderly and children, and finally heaved a sigh of relief, not as cautious as before: "There is a locust plague here, and the adults have gone to the fields to drive away the locusts. I am going to help."
It turned out that this group of people were not here to collect rent, and the child breathed a sigh of relief.
The late rice was planted in July and is about to mature, but unexpectedly a locust plague broke out. The villagers are busy driving away locusts in the fields to protect the crops.
Seeing that the child was no longer afraid of them, Escort Master Cen said, "Little kid, Zhang Xin from your village is my friend. Can you take us to find him?"
"We have more people, let's see if we can help later!"
"Zhang Xin is my cousin." The child was relieved to find out that he was his cousin's friend: "I'll take you to find him!"
Zhang Dun led everyone to the fields rented by the villagers of Tianshui Village.
Almost all the villagers in Tianshui Village rented land from landlords. Although the landlords exploited them severely, at least every household could have enough food to eat and pay the rent every year. Unfortunately, the crops in the previous season encountered extreme weather and the harvest was poor, so many people wrote IOUs to the landlords.
The rice was growing well this season, and the villagers thought they would be able to pay off the rent and have a good new year. However, a sudden locust plague caught everyone off guard.
Jiang Lili quickly contacted Zhang Xiaopang on the way to the farmland with Zhang Dun.
[@江黎黎: Xiaopang, the village we passed by is in trouble with locusts. Can we buy some insecticides for killing locusts from your father's friend who runs a pesticide factory? ]
Although the pesticides that Xiaopang stockpiled a few days ago can kill insects, they will also affect crops and soil after spraying.
【@张小胖: Coming~ I'll ask my dad to contact them right away! 】
Zhang Xiaopang now lives in his grandfather's house, which is just above a supermarket, so it is very convenient to pick up and deliver items.
Zhang Xiaopang told his father that a friend he met while playing games online could help save their family's aquaculture business affected by nuclear wastewater, and that the landscape painting was given to him by this friend. He is now helping this friend practice his gaming account online and managing his online e-commerce business.
Originally, Xiaopang stayed at his grandfather's house every day and never went out, which made Zhang's father quite dissatisfied. After all, the company's business is busy now, and Xiaopang can no longer live the comfortable life of a rich second-generation as before.
But after Xiaopang got that crucial landscape painting, Zhang's father's attitude took a drastic turn, and Zhang Xiaopang's family status improved by leaps and bounds, from a stinky baby to a national treasure.
Zhang's father is now actively cooperating with his son and even gave Zhang Xiaopang a bank card with 100,000 yuan in it as a reserve fund.
In fact, Zhang's father felt that the value of the landscape painting was far more than 100,000 yuan. He didn't know who his son's netizen was and how he could give away such a painting so casually. However, the company was short of funds now, so they could only give Zhang Xiaopang this much.
Now Zhang Xiaopang stays at home every day and has converted his room into an e-sports game room. When he is not on a feeding mission, he plays games and helps his family company with online business. Therefore, he responds to Jiang Lili very quickly.
Jiang Lili now regularly uses gold and silver jewelry to settle purchasing expenses and errand fees for him. When Zhang Xiaopang is short of money, he takes the gold and silver items that Jiang Lili sends to Boss Mo, his grandfather's friend who runs a pawn shop, in exchange for purchasing funds.
Any item that Jiang Lili and Guan Yue robbed from Xu Youshan could be worth four or five figures, and Boss Mo even said he would help Xiaopang contact the auction house for some of the jewelry!
When Zhang's father discovered that the money in the bank card was only increasing and not decreasing, and increased by thousands or tens of thousands from time to time, he was dumbfounded and even suspected that Zhang Xiaopang was engaging in illegal fraud on the Internet.
[@张小胖: Sister Li, I have contacted the uncle from the pesticide factory. Please tell me the extent of the damage and the area of land! ]
【@江麗麗: OK! I'll be there soon, I'll take a picture for you. 】
[@张小胖: You need fire to drive away locusts, right? I'll go buy you some gasoline first. If you need anything else, send it to me! ]
[@江麗麗: Thank you for your hard work, little fat brother! By the way, Master Liao is a horticulture major and should have studied pest control in college. I will go ask Master Liao if he needs anything else! ]
The group has reached the ridge of the field in Tianshui Village.
As dusk approached, the sky darkened and the orange-yellow light from the sky shone on the land. Countless locusts swept in from afar like dark clouds. They swooped down on the crops frantically, as if they wanted to devour this fertile land.
The locusts densely covered the leaves of the crops, and the slight noise they made was frightening.
"Light it up, light it up quickly!"
"There aren't enough torches!"
"My rice, I'm going to fight you beasts!"
......
Shouts, sad cries, and angry roars intertwined together, and the atmosphere was extremely tense!
In the fields, villagers worked hard to drive away locusts, but there were just too many insects.
Escort Master Cen found Zhang Xin, and after the two of them discussed with Wang Zifu, Wang Zifu said loudly: "Everyone, grab the weapons you have and help the villagers drive away the locusts!"
They were originally planning to stay overnight in Tianshui Village. Now that the village is in such a state, it would be unreasonable for them to just stand by and watch.
Jiang Lili used the camera function in the group chat to take a picture of the scene and sent it to Zhang Xiaopang. Then she found Liao Ji and said, "Master Liao, is this your professional field now?"
Liao Ji had a stern face at this time, looking very serious. He was pacing on the ridge of the field with his hands behind his back, observing the current locust plague situation. After looking around, he gave the required pesticide model and dosage to Zhang Xiaopang.
"Frogs and birds are the natural enemies of locusts. Where's your big silly bird?" Master Liao looked up into the sky and said, "Eagles can eat pests and drive away insects. Hurry up and call it over to help. It's not for nothing that it eats all those canned foods!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Lili immediately blew a quick whistle. She had learned some basic bird training techniques from Xin Che on the road these two days. After a while, a falcon appeared in the sky, circled and descended, and landed beside Jiang Lili.
Jiang Lili picked up a dogtail grass and pointed at the locusts lying on the crops: "Drive them away quickly!"
She pulled out a can of cod: "I'll reward you after I chase them away!"
