Su Yuejian saw that Gu Bingxiu had written down all the key points, and then continued, "I'll figure out a way to deal with the remaining ducks.

In addition, people were sent to the Bay Area to catch frogs and put them all into the wheat fields.

We can’t neglect one thing while focusing on the other. If there are any locusts that hatch this year, we must not let them become a scourge again!”

Chunlan just came in to serve the dishes. The crayfish had already been cooked and a few more dishes were added.

"Chunlan, go talk to Su Quan and ask him to buy 800 adult ducks and 200 ducklings from outside Zhongli County as soon as possible. The sooner the better."

Su Yuejian had to take precautions before the locusts came. If the locusts had not come, the ducks could be made into duck meat and the income would not be wasted.

If there were locusts, at least the losses could be reduced!

"Oh, Lord Gu, send people to the dry riverbeds and barren mountains to monitor, and report immediately if you find any hatching eggs or green locusts.

The place where these green locusts first appeared may be their birthplace!

Establishing a locust early warning system will help us formulate targeted plans!"

Jun Moli was painting in the yard. When he smelled the fragrance, he came over and said, "Let me see what you are eating behind my back. It smells so good!"

Gu Bingxiu was so focused on the locusts that he had no time to pay attention to him.

"This is spicy crayfish, very delicious, come and eat and chat!"

Su Yuejian asked the two to sit down. Gu Bingxiu had no appetite at first, so he casually picked up a crayfish and watched the princess eat it, then imitated her.

When you take a sip, the spicy taste and the numb feeling intertwine, stimulating the taste buds and making you unable to stop!

Jun Moli found this thing so delicious that he couldn't help but say, "Xiao Jianjian, if I can eat this delicacy every day, it wouldn't hurt to stay in Zhongli for a hundred years!"

"That's not difficult. We can dig a pond and raise crayfish. Then we'll always have enough to eat. By then, you'll be so full that you'll vomit!

Lord Gu testified that he took the initiative to stay in Zhongli, I didn't force him!"

Su Yuejian spoke in a cheerful tone, but could not hide the worry between her brows.

"What were you talking about just now? You both look so sad." Jun Moli asked with raised eyebrows.

"I predict that there may be another locust plague this year, and I am discussing locust control with Lord Gu!"

After listening to this, Jun Moli put away his frivolous smile and fell into deep thought.

"Can this thing be cooked like crayfish?"

“It may be difficult to implement.

This thing won't just stand there and wait for you to catch it. Scattered green locusts are edible, but blackened locusts that have formed a plague in groups are poisonous.

Once locusts become a plague, they turn into brown and cannot be eaten. Even their natural enemies will not eat them.

If we want to eat it, it is best to catch its nymphs, that is, when the locusts are still in their young stage, which is the most suitable time for hunting and eating.

But I can’t think of a way to make it easier to swallow besides deep-frying it, and ordinary people can’t afford to eat so much oil!”

Gu Bingxiu looked at the princess and felt that her behavior and knowledge were superior to those of other men in the world.

This girl might really be the reincarnation of some immortal. She has forgotten her past and only has this one skill which is inexhaustible.

Su Yuejian took a pen and paper from the side and drew a picture of an adult locust, a nymph, and an egg.

Both of them were puzzled. "Jun Moli, tell the children over there to remember this. They can't sit idle. After class, have them go to the fields, dry riverbeds, wastelands, and caves to check. Wherever they find green locusts, put up a small flag. Then have someone go to the places with the most small flags and burn the land without crops.

This can kill any unhatched insect eggs underground and reduce the likelihood of a major disaster.

If there are nymphs, you can catch them and fry them before eating. If you don’t like them, you can dry them and grind them into powder and mix them into feed for livestock.”

Su Yuejian had seen documentaries in her previous life. Locusts like to choose areas with hard soil to lay their eggs. It is easier to kill immobile eggs than a large army that can move!

“The locust plague is terrible. Ordinary people will lose hope when they hear about it.

If we can make people no longer afraid of natural disasters from the bottom of their hearts and make them believe that there is a way to deal with any disaster.

Never despair under any circumstances!

No one can destroy our beautiful home!"

Su Yuejian's words made her blood boil, and she wanted to pick up a gun and go shoot the locusts right away!

After arranging the work for Gu Bingxiu and Jun Moli, Su Yuejian returned to Yuejiantang.

She had to think about it, there was a plant in her previous life that could be made into a plant pesticide.

If the locusts arrive after the ears of corn have emerged, it will be very bad.

I remember that what I hated most when I was working in the hospital was the clinical doctors. After a busy day of surgery, they still had to find time to do scientific research. Now, I am grateful for such training, which allows me to not be afraid of challenges.

With the previous experience, it’s nothing more than doing experiments. As long as there are enough people, we can always figure it out.

Su Yuejian asked the glass workshop to make hundreds of glass boxes with very small pores.

She planned to catch locusts and throw them here.

Then go out into the wild to screen the plants and mark each one.

Find plants that have few insects on the trees and feed them to the locusts. If the locusts don't eat a single bite, there may be some plants among them that can be used as natural pesticides.

Su Yuejian wandered in the depths of the dense forest for a week, bringing back some plants each time and marking them with numbers on the trees.

She tested hundreds of plants this week.

She found a tree in the woods, whose name she couldn't tell, with lavender flowers. After careful observation, she found there were really no insects on it, so she brought back a branch with flowers.

The branches and tender leaves brought back may be eaten by locusts without any problems, but they are all unqualified.

Among these hundreds of species, there are ten plants that they would rather die of starvation than eat.

Su Yuejian numbered the ten plants and extracted concentrated liquids from them. One of them had purple flowers, so she also extracted some from them and placed them in the locust glass house. She found that out of the ten plants, only the one with purple flowers had the best effect, and the locusts died quickly.

The other nine types are simply what locusts don't like to eat, and they are not biologically toxic.

Su Yuejian tried the leaves and flowers of the plant separately and found that the flowers were more effective.

So the purple flower is used to extract flower essential oil in the same way as essential oil refining.

Crush all the leaves, add water and extract at low temperature. Add soapy water and a little purple essential oil to the filtered solution and mix it. Use it to spray locusts. The effect is similar to the insecticide in the previous life!

Because I have been walking in the woods these days, my body is covered with bites, "If only I had mosquito coils!"

Thinking of mosquito coils, how are they made?

I forgot how it was made, but mosquito coils all contain a chemical ingredient, which is pyrethroid.

Pyrethroids cannot be produced, but natural pyrethrins may be able to be produced.

So Su Yuejian started looking for places with wild chrysanthemums and those bright pyrethrums.

This is still easy to find in spring and summer.

Small chrysanthemums with white petals and yellow stamens.

Su Yuejian collected two bundles and prepared to take them back for experiments.

After finishing all these, Su Yuejian went to train her mental strength again. It seemed that the quantity of some ingredients thrown into the space last time was wrong.

Su Yuejian's consciousness wandered in the space, at least twice as much.

[Dada, wake up, there are more ingredients in the curvature space, is my space upgraded? ]

[My dear, the space has been upgraded. This is space printing! Normally, only the fourth-level space has this function.]

What is spatial printing?

[My dear, space printing means that the material placed in space can be copied multiple times by controlling the mental power. When your mental power becomes stronger, you can achieve higher multiples of space printing! ]

This upgrade is so timely!

With this function, if you put in 10,000 kilograms of grain, it will become 20,000 kilograms of grain.

If mental power can be upgraded a few more times before the end of the world, the pressure of stockpiling supplies will be much less.

Not only food and meat, but also other warm supplies and medicines.

Penicillin and allicin could be developed before, but one could not be mass-produced, and the other had unstable efficacy and was easily ineffective.

Now that we have the space, we just need to store the medicines into the space, and then use the space printing function to increase them exponentially.

Doesn’t that mean mass production has been achieved?

Su Yuejian excitedly calculated back and forth in the room. If they printed day and night, the number would be too much.

[My dear, your current mental strength is not good enough. If you use it without limit, your mental strength will be drained and you will die of exhaustion! ]

A basin of cold water was poured down, waking Su Yuejian up from her sweet dream.
