"Although Lord Hou (Young Master) ordered, I will wait and follow it strictly!"

In the meeting room of Yanhuang Academy, when Li Zexuan said, "This is a major event related to the life and death of more than 80,000 people in Lantian County," the magistrate He, Hu Hanyun, Liu Erye, and Liu Qingfeng could not help but straighten up. He looked at Li Zexuan seriously and said.

Li Zexuan nodded and began to arrange: "He County Order, after returning to the county office soon, you immediately send the office servants to post Anmin notices everywhere, not only in the city, but all the villagers outside the city! The content Mr. Wenji and Mr. Kong Gui are helping you draft it. You can take it to the workshop and rub out hundreds of copies to take back!"

The county magistrate He hurriedly said: "The official will follow the order!"

Li Zexuan nodded, and then said: "In addition, the Department of Commerce has ordered the Department of Commerce to inform the grain merchants in Lantian County that during this period of time, it is strictly forbidden to drive up grain prices, and offenders will be recorded in the Department of Commerce's blacklist. , And drove out of Lantian County, never to come to Lantian County to do business forever!"

The county magistrate He hesitated and said: "Hou Ye, will this anger the grain merchants, so that the grain merchants in the city will collectively move out of Lantian County?"

Li Zexuan sneered and said, "Since Ben Hou dared to say this, I am not afraid that they would withdraw from Lantian County! In the granary at the foot of Yunshan Mountain, last year 50,000 stones of grain were hidden, and there were more than 80,000 people in Lantian County. Even if it is evenly divided, each person can get nearly 70 catties. How can you save some food for three to four months? When the autumn harvest arrives, will you still worry about not having food? Besides, the Guancang in Lantian County, did not last year? Store food?"

The county magistrate He heard that Li Zexuan said that Yunshan still had 50,000 stone of grain stored here, and he was relieved, but after hearing Li Zexuan's question behind, his heart sank suddenly and he wiped it. The sweat on his forehead said carefully:

"This, Lord Hou, the official warehouse in Lantian County can only hold seven or eight thousand shi of grain. The harvest last year was not good. The people turned in not much grain, so the official warehouse was not full. , It only contained more than four thousand stones of grain!"

Li Zexuan couldn't help being a little angry when he heard the words: "Last year the imperial court went south to exchange grain. The sea merchants brought back so much grain, which almost caused the grain price in the capital to drop to the bottom. Money to buy food?"

He Xianling was ashamed and embarrassed, he said ashamed: "This...no! The Guanzhong area relies on the Yellow River for nourishment, and the water and soil are fertile. Basically, it rarely encounters disaster years. Besides, even in disaster years, Chang'an City is here. There is Taicang, and there is Hanjiacang in Luoyang, and there is no need to worry about food. Therefore, there is no precedent for specializing in buying and storing food in every state and county!"

"You~!"

Li Zexuan was really outraged, but in the final analysis, he couldn't blame the county magistrate. When the imperial court returned from the southern fleet last year, Li Zexuan was not the lord of Lantian County? Otherwise, all the granaries in Lantian County would definitely be packed full under Li Zexuan's orders!

"It's fine! Let's not mention this for now! But Benhou hopes you will remember in the future that you still need to be hard when you hit iron. Don't expect others to save you when you encounter problems. You have to help yourself! The vast territory of the Tang Dynasty, the states and counties There are more than three hundred. Like today’s large locust plague, there are at least dozens of states and counties that the court wants relief. If we blindly wait for the court’s relief, how many more people will starve to death?"

Li Zexuan sighed, then said sternly.

He county magistrate repeatedly arched his hands and said: "What Hou Ye taught! The next official must remember Hou Ye's teachings!"

When Li Zexuan saw this, he did not continue to reprimand him. After all, as a county's parent official, he still wanted face, he turned and said: "The Department of Commerce, the determination to curb the rise in food prices must be firm, except for Yun In addition to the grain on the mountain side, Benhou can also mobilize the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce to transport grain to the south! So you don’t have to worry about grain!"

The county magistrate He breathed a sigh of relief and nodded: "Yes! Lord Hou!"

Li Zexuan thought for a while, then looked at Li Gang and Yan Silu, and said, "Mr. Wenji, Mr. Kong Gui, in the notice posted, we must add such a note. Starting today, the county government of Lantian County, Begin to purchase locusts from the civilian population, with a penny and two catties, unlimited!"

Li Gang and Yan Silu couldn't help being shocked when they heard the words, and the magistrate He, who was sitting at the head of Li Zexuan, couldn't help but exclaimed: "Hou Ye! Never! This overwhelming locust, whatever If you send someone to pick it up, you can pick up ten jin in a day. If all the people in Lantian County pick up locusts, wouldn’t they be able to pick up hundreds of thousands of jin in one day?"

Li Zexuan couldn't help saying: "This locust is not dead, how can you just lie there and let anyone catch it? It's not easy for one person to catch ten catties of locusts a day! Besides, even if it catches so many, the county government can All must be collected according to the order, you can rest assured that this money will be paid by Benhou!"

The county magistrate He is speechless, he thought that you can't waste it so much if you have money!

He didn't know that Li Zexuan bought locusts with a penny and two catties, not only would he not lose, but he would make a lot of money!

Regardless of what the county magistrate thought, Li Zexuan went on to say: "In fact, giving food to the people is really the next policy! The people have worked so hard in the fields for half a year, and they all have to harvest. However, the locust plague is ushered in, and their contributions are going to be wiped out. This is quite unfair to them! Therefore, the top priority is that what we have to do is to rescue the disaster, not to open the storehouse and release the grain!"

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but nodded!

In fact, even if all the crops in the field are eaten up by the locusts, there is no need to open a warehouse to help the people immediately, because the people generally have a certain amount of surplus food in their homes, and the consequences of the locust plague can take ten and a half days. Months can be revealed.

"Uncle Hu, last year I let Hu Jingran and Hu Guoran teach the children in the village to control the chickens. How did this happen?"

Li Zexuan looked at Hu Hanyun and asked.

Hu Hanyun hurriedly replied: "Master, not only Hanjiazhuang, but also the children from Meicun came to learn! And the two Zhuangzi children finally passed the examination and got the bonus set by you, Master!"

"How many chickens are there in the two Zhuangzi now?"

Li Zexuan asked again.

Hu Hanyun thought for a while and replied: "There are about 75,000 chickens in Hanjiazhuang!"

Liu Qingfeng then replied: "There are 74,000 in Mei Village!"

The two villagers became Li Zexuan’s fief earlier. At that time, Li Zexuan bought about 80,000 chicken fry for the two villagers at his own expense. Now it seems that the survival rate is above 80%, which shows that the farmers Help him raise chickens really hard!

Li Zexuan nodded and said: "That adds up to nearly 150,000! Good! Uncle Hu, Erye Liu, and Lizheng Liu, you immediately go back to Zhuangzi, gather the children, and divide them into 30 teams, each team With 5,000 chickens, they swept the farmland of more than 80 villages in Lantian County from north to south, and quickly wiped out most of the locusts in all the fields in Lantian County!"

"What? Let the chicken eat the locusts? Master, is this a reliable method?"

When everyone listened, they were all amazed, and Old Hu said in surprise.

Li Zexuan explained with a smile: "Of course it is reliable! Benhou once read a book, it said that an adult chicken can eat more than 300 locusts a day, and 20 chickens can almost guarantee an acre. There are no locusts in the field. Let's organize five thousand chickens into a team, and we can clean up all the locusts in the two hundred acres of land in almost half an hour! Uncle Hu, you will go back to the village and gather the children to start action. Before, tens of thousands of acres of fertile land may be cleared, and within two days, all the locusts in the farmland of Lantian County will be cleared!"

Although I don’t know that Li Zexuan saw these fallacies from that book, because of their blind trust in Li Zexuan, everyone still chose to believe it. He nodded frequently, but at this time Xian Ling He couldn’t help but frown. :

"Master Hou! Chickens not only eat locusts, but also wheat! This way the locusts will be wiped out, but the wheat will also be harmed!"

Li Zexuan glanced at him lightly, and said: "He County Order, this question, I think Uncle Hu can answer you!"

"Uh..."

He County Order was stunned and couldn't help but cast his gaze on Hu Hanyun.

Old Hu scratched his head. This question is not easy to answer. If you say too bluntly, it is likely to hurt the self-esteem of the county magistrate. After all, the county magistrate is the parent official of a county. Although Lao Hu can't do it Those violating disciplines are sought by He County Order to take care of them, but it is not easy to justify the crime.

After babbling for a while, Lao Hu finally organized the language and explained: "My magistrate, although this chicken can also eat wheat, there are too many locusts in the field, and they will not care about eating wheat by then. !"

In fact, he just wanted to say, "Who wants to be a vegetarian if you have meat", but this is too straightforward!

He county magistrate is not a stupid person, he also reacted in an instant, he handed over to Li Zexuan with a look of shame: "The officials are confused and thoughtless!"

Li Zexuan waved his hand and said: "It's okay! But as a parent official of the people, if you learn about farming, you must not make a joke of "Why not eat meat"!"

"Yes! Lord Hou!"

He county magistrate repeatedly said yes.

Li Zexuan didn’t want to say much, but instead said: “Last year, the imperial court introduced a policy of reducing taxes for raising chickens. In the entire Guanzhong area, the number of people raising chickens has greatly increased. I believe Lantian County is not too good! He County ordered you to remove Guangfa. In addition to warnings and stabilizing people’s hearts, we must also call on the people to drive all the chickens raised in their homes to the fields to eat locusts. At the moment of the catastrophe, only with one heart and one mind can we survive the locust plague in the shortest time!"

He county magistrate arched his hands with a serious face: "The officials follow the orders!"

At this time, Li Gang said: "Shan Chang, the Anmin notices posted everywhere have been drafted. Would you like to take a look first!"

Li Zexuan nodded, and Hu Hanyun, who was sitting next to Li Gang, quickly handed the manuscript in Li Gang's hand to Li Zexuan.

After browsing the contents of the manuscript roughly, Li Zexuan said: "Well! The writing is very complete! He County Order, now you have to ask someone to take the notice to the workshop for rubbing. After stamping the official seal, immediately Post within the county!"

He county magistrate took it with both hands, and solemnly said: "Yes! Lord Hou! The official resignation!"

"Master, I will say goodbye when I wait!"

Hu Hanyun, Liu Erye, Liu Qingfeng and others looked at each other and stood up at the same time.

"Hmm!"

Li Zexuan nodded and said.

Several people clasped their fists and walked out of the conference room together.

Li Zexuan looked at Ma Zhou, and said, "Brother Ma, please from Datang Daily! After all, this locust plague is not only in Lantian County, but at least dozens of states in Guanzhong are plagued by locusts. ! Be sure to use "Datang Daily" to unite the people and fight against disasters together!"

Ma Zhou nodded solemnly and said: "Shan Chief Don’t worry, Ma will return to the editorial department to mobilize all editors and start to take action. Tomorrow’s "Datang Daily" will definitely have Shan Chief’s locust control measures, and Tomorrow’s news will surely dispel most people’s fear of the locust god!"

"Well! So the best! Brother Ma, go!"

Li Zexuan nodded and said.

Ma Zhou led the way.

Li Zexuan looked at Sun Simiao at this time, and said: "Daochang Sun, you must know the medicinal value of locusts. This time, the Lantian County Government can take part of the locusts collected by the Yanhuang Medical Center for medicine. This is cheap. There are not many effective medicinal materials. Isn’t it a pity to miss it?"

Sun Simiao nodded and stroked his beard and said: "Xiaoxuan, you are right. Pang Dao will ask the medical hall to take over some of the locusts purchased by the county government and put them in the warehouse!"

"Well! That's good!"

After that, Li Zexuan looked at Li Gang and Yan Silu again, and said: "Mr. Wenji, Mr. Kong Gui, I said that the purpose of Yanhuang Academy is to build a heart for the world~ IndoMTL.com~ Live for the people. At this critical moment, I announced in the name of Shan Chang that the final exams of the academy have been temporarily postponed. All students in the academy will be suspended. They will go to villages in Lantian County in groups to eliminate the people’s superstition of the locust **** and lead the people to resist the locust plague. , Catch locusts!"

Li Gang and Yan Silu are both people with common living and high morals. Hearing these words, they have no objection, and they said in unison: "Zhushan Changling!"

"Ouch! My Lord Hou, why are you in Yunshan! We are so easy to find!"

At this moment, there was a rush of footsteps and Zhao Song's shouts in the conference room.

Li Zexuan nodded at Li Gang and Yan Silu, and said, "The two gentlemen, let's do it yourself! It seems that Ben Hou is going to the palace!"

The two of them felt like mirrors, knowing that Li Er in the palace was anxious, and wanted to call Li Zexuan into the palace, so they walked away.

Li Zexuan followed to greet him, and rushed towards the oncoming Zhao Song: "Manager Zhao, let's go!"

Zhao Song was stunned for a while, and said: "Master Hou, do you know that your majesty wants to call you into the palace?"

Li Zexuan said as he walked: "Manager Zhao is in such a hurry, how can Xiaohou not guess? The situation in Chang'an must be urgent, let's talk while walking!"

When Zhao Song heard the words, he couldn't ask for it, so he hurried up and said: "Okay! Lord Hou, please! A quick horse is ready outside!"

Two riders, rushed down Yunshan like lightning and headed towards Chang'an City.

In order to summon Li Zexuan into the palace as soon as possible this time, Zhao Song didn't bring any of his entourages. After all, he has reached the realm of a grandmaster, and his speed is fast. The little eunuchs in the palace can't keep up!
