Si Yuan took out a map and discussed road construction with Ouyang Moyu, "If this road can be built to Fengling Country, it will greatly facilitate trade between the two countries."

A gleam of light flashed in Ouyang Moyu's eyes, and he immediately sent a message to the envoy of Fengling Kingdom.

"General, the chief of Cuiwei Village is here to see you." The housekeeper outside the door reported hurriedly.

Si Yuan put down the map in his hand and signaled the housekeeper to invite the village chief in.

The village chief walked hurriedly with an anxious look on his face. As soon as he saw Si Yuan, he said eagerly: "General, I am the village chief of Cuiwei Village, and my surname is Liang. This morning, some villagers discovered a large number of insects in the farmland. When I rushed to check, I found that those insects had destroyed a lot of farmland." There was a bit of sadness in the words of Village Chief Liang.

"How come such a big thing was only discovered today?" Si Yuan frowned. The people in Northern Border City rely on this land for their livelihood. Once the food is damaged, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Village Chief Liang looked ashamed and explained, "I never thought that pests would breed in the dark."

"Village Chief Liang, what does this bug look like?" Mu Wanwan asked.

When Village Chief Liang saw a beautiful woman asking a question, he looked up and thought that this must be the general's wife, the woman who solved the plague in the Northern City.

Village Chief Liang paused, recalling the insects' appearance. "They were dark red all over, with two pincers like scissors and a hard shell. They also burrowed and hid in the soil. Now the fertile fields are leaking."

According to Village Chief Liang's description, Mu Wanwan had already made up her mind. She took out a portrait from the space and handed it to Village Chief Liang.

"Village Chief Liang, do you think this is it?"

Village Chief Liang took the portrait, his eyes fixed on it, and nodded in surprise: "That's it!"

Oh my god, it’s really crayfish!

Spicy, garlic, thirteen spices... Several flavors flashed through Mu Wanwan's mind.

"Madam, do you have any way to deal with this pest?" Ouyang Moyu saw that Mu Wanwan seemed to know this insect, and besides being worried, there was a hint of expectation in his tone.

Mu Wanwan came back to her senses. "This isn't a bug. It's called a crayfish. It has a strong reproductive capacity, but it's not uncontrollable..."

"What method?" Si Yuan asked anxiously before Mu Wanwan finished speaking.

"Let's go, we'll go to Cuiwei Village to catch crayfish and make delicious food for you in the evening." Mu Wanwan couldn't wait to catch crayfish.

Catch crayfish and make delicious food? Everyone looked at each other in confusion. Could it be what they thought? Why does the lady eat everything?

Village chief Liang and a few others rushed to Cuiwei Village. The scene at the entrance of the village made Si Yuan and others feel heavy-hearted. The insects that should have been wreaking havoc in the farmland had spread to the entrance of the village.

"Wanwan, is this really edible?" Mu Yuheng asked doubtfully, looking at the insect with its fangs and claws bared.

Mu Wanwan saw lobsters all over the ground and ran forward excitedly to pick one up. With so many crayfish, wouldn’t this mean they could have freedom?

"Of course, hurry up and catch them. I'll make them for you later."

Mu Wanwan took out a few large buckets from the space and said, "Village Chief Liang, let the villagers come and catch them. I will give you ten cents per pound."

When Village Chief Liang heard that the price was ten cents per pound, he quickly called the villagers over without caring whether what Mu Wanwan said was edible was true or not.

The villagers were called over, and Village Chief Liang relayed Mu Wanwan's words to them.

"What? Ten cents per pound?" Upon hearing the news, the villagers hurried home to pick up their backpacks and rushed to the fields, fearing that they would not catch enough.

"Be careful, don't get pinched by crayfish." Mu Wanwan reminded the villagers.

After a while, several buckets were filled. Mu Wanwan gave the silver money to the village chief and asked him to distribute it to the villagers.

"Everyone, these are enough for today. I will arrange people to collect them tomorrow." Mu Wanwan has already thought about opening a restaurant and sending people to collect the crayfish.

This not only solves the disaster problem, but also allows the villagers to earn extra income. When the restaurant opens, the villagers can also be taught to raise lobsters, which will provide a steady source of income.

"Thank you, ma'am. You are such a kind-hearted person." Seeing that Mu Wanwan had solved the insect plague for the villagers and also provided them with money, Village Chief Liang led the villagers to come forward and salute Mu Wanwan.

After saying goodbye to Village Chief Liang, Mu Wanwan put several buckets into the space.

Si Yuan took Mu Wanwan and others back.

After returning to the general's mansion, Mu Wanwan called Xiaoyou over and asked Ying Er and the others to come back to prepare crayfish for them in the evening.

"Miss, what is this? It looks so ugly?" Xiaoyou asked with disgust as he looked at the buckets of crayfish that Mu Wanwan took out.

"This is good stuff, you'll know later. Go prepare some more minced garlic." Mu Wanwan took out various spices and handed them to Xiaoyou.

Mu Wanwan took out a few brushes and taught Ying Er and the others how to scrub the crayfish.

Ying Er and his friends couldn't clean all the crayfish by themselves, so Si Yuan and his friends came forward to help.

Everyone gathered in the kitchen yard, washing lobsters to the sound of running water.

Soon, the lobster was cleaned.

Mu Wanwan set up two large pots in the yard, poured in oil, added onions, ginger and garlic to stir-fry, and then poured the washed crayfish into the pot and fried them.

Xiaoyou and Yinger were also helping.

As soon as it is put into the oil pan, the lobster shell turns bright red in an instant.
