After bidding farewell to Cheng Yaojin, Li Zexuan went directly to the editorial department of the workshop, and told Ma Zhou exactly what Li Ersheng had swallowed locusts today, and told Ma Zhou to be in the "Datang This incident was published on the front page of the Daily News. After that, Li Zexuan left the editorial office and happened to meet Li Tai head-on.

"Blue bird, where are you going?"

Li Zexuan couldn't help asking when seeing Li Tai carrying a package.

"Shanchang? You are here! I am going to help Tiedan, Hu Guoran, and they command the Tianji brigade with a loudspeaker?"

When Li Tai saw Li Zexuan, his face was also startled, and when he reacted, he said quickly.

"Amplifier? Tianji Brigade?"

Li Zexuan listened, a faint light flashed in his eyes, and he smiled: "Qingque, you have a good idea. Using a loudspeaker to let Tiedan and Hu Guoran command the Tianji brigade can save a lot of effort. , Secondly, the sound can be transmitted farther, and there are more chickens that can be directed! How many loudspeakers are there in our workshop now?"

Li Tai patted the package in his hand and said, "Shan Chang, this amplifier was just made today. You took one in the afternoon. I asked the craftsman to make three more. So Not many, only these three in my bag!"

Li Zexuan pondered for a moment, and said, "The blue bird, immediately ask the craftsmen in the workshop to help you make a batch of loudspeakers. As for the iron egg, you will not be able to help too much temporarily. It is expected that the Tianji brigade will be able to clean up all the locusts in Lantian County tomorrow. At that time, I will receive another batch of chickens from Mr. Yi and Guogong Lu. The size of the Tianji brigade will increase sharply. By then, Hu Guoran, Tiedan and the others will take the Tianji brigade to the neighboring states and counties to eliminate locusts. At the workshop, it is best to make 60 loudspeakers before they set off in the future!"

"Sixty?"

Li Tai's eyes widened. If he had read "The Legend of Zhen Huan", he would definitely say "I can't do it with a concubine". At this time, he frowned and said: "Shan Chang, this loudspeaker It's not easy to do. According to my opinion, the workshop can only make about 30 a day at most. You want 60. This is impossible!"

Li Zexuan said solemnly: "The disaster is like a fire, I can wait, but the people who are suffering from the locust plague can't wait! Wait one more day, they may lose hundreds of catties of food! Now the situation is urgent. Let the craftsmen in the workshop work in white and night shifts and work overtime to rush out a batch of loudspeakers!"

Li Tai is not a person who doesn't know the importance, he nodded solemnly when he heard the words, and said: "That's OK! I'll go to Fu Bo to appoint a group of craftsmen to help build the amplifier!"

After that, he arched his hand towards Li Zexuan, carrying the baggage and headed directly towards the office where Fu Bo was.

"Old Li caused my young master to eat locusts alive, but now I let his son work overtime to produce loudspeakers. Is this a private revenge?"

Looking at the back of Li Tai hurriedly leaving, Li Zexuan pinched his chin, and such a thought suddenly flashed in his heart.

"No, no, no! I am a selfless man, how can I do such silly things as public revenge? I do everything for the people of the world!"

Li Zexuan shook his head fiercely, and then muttered firmly with a face.

"Hou Ye, this afternoon, Tianji Brigade has wiped out 15 locusts in Zhuangzi's farmland. The speed is much faster than previously estimated!"

In the evening, not long after Li Zexuan returned to the Hou Mansion in Lantian County, County Majesty He heard that Li Zexuan had returned to the county seat, so he hurriedly visited and reported his work by the way.

In the study, the lower people quietly walked out after serving refreshments. There were only Li Zexuan and He County magistrate in the house.

Li Zexuan took a sip of the fairy tea, but did not swallow it. After returning home, he thought of eating locusts raw in the afternoon, so he couldn't help but vomit for a long time. At this moment, there was a strange smell in his mouth and he rinsed with the fairy tea. After gargle and spit the tea into the spittoon, Li Zexuan said:

"Before this Benhou came back, he had heard Uncle Hu say it! The speed of the Tianji Brigade's locust eradication is amazing, but compared to the number of states and counties affected by the locust plague, it is still somewhat insufficient!"

The county magistrate He was a little strange and said: "What does Hou Ye mean? Isn't the chicken brigade going to other states and counties to kill locusts this day?"

Li Zexuan glanced at him and said, "You are right, this afternoon, your Majesty did ask Benhou to clear out the locusts in Lantian County, and then take the Tianji brigade to kill locusts in other counties! Benhou! It is the prince of the Tang Dynasty, who eats the national salaries. Naturally, he can't just take care of the three-acre land in Lantian County. Therefore, let the Tianji brigade go to other states and counties to eliminate locusts, this prince has the responsibility!"

He county magistrate was a civil official, and he had the lofty ambition to serve the country when he was young. He couldn’t help but bow his hands with admiration: “Housing Lord is very righteous, he is admired by the officials! The lower officials are gentle and can’t help him, but After Hou Ye leaves, the next official will manage Lantian County for Hou Ye, so that Lantian County can tide over this locust plague smoothly!"

Li Zexuan nodded and said: "So the best! There are two things that I need to emphasize again with you. First, the price of food in Lantian County must not be chaotic. When unscrupulous food merchants are hoarding, It must not be tolerated. As far as the current situation is concerned, the impact of the locust plague in Lantian County is relatively small, and the loss is much smaller than that of other states and counties, so it is unlikely that food prices will rise sharply!"

The county magistrate He nodded and agreed: "Hou Ye is right. If the speed is now, the locusts in the farmland of the county will be wiped out tomorrow. Although it will have an impact on this year’s defense of the city, the reduction in grain production will definitely not It will exceed 20%, and there is no reason for grain merchants to drive up grain prices!"

Speaking of this, county magistrate He couldn’t help but admire Li Zexuan’s five-body throwing to the ground. He thought that if Li Zexuan had not raised 150,000 chickens in Hanjiazhuang and Meicun, now that the locust plague has come, how could Lantian County become the entire Datang The first county to eliminate locusts? Take a step back and say that if Li Er didn't seal all Lantian County to Li Zexuan, then Majesty He would now have a headache because of the locust plague!

Li Zexuan smiled comfortingly, and then said: "Secondly, after Benhou leaves, if there are refugees from other prefectures and counties who fled to Lantian County, you first set aside a wasteland in the county and give them a place to live. Don’t turn them away! Lantian County is currently building roads and will expand the city in the future. In addition, hydropower stations and Benhou’s workshops all require manpower. There are still too few people in Lantian County. It’s also a good idea to take this opportunity to absorb a group of refugees and grow Lantian County!"

The county magistrate He said in amazement: "Master Hou, there are a lot of people in Lantian County! Even if it is in the entire Datang, it can be regarded as a middle-upper county. Also, you just said to expand The county seat? How did this make it? The city is now completely enough for the people to live!"

Li Zexuan looked at Majesty He who hated iron and steel, and said: "Sufficient housing now does not mean that he will be able to live in the future. Benhou does not plan to let Lantian County remain a middle-level county. Now the city is moving wires. After the wires are well pulled and the hydropower station is able to supply Lantian County with normal power supply, Lantian County will be bright as daylight even at night with electric lights! At that time Benhou planned to completely abolish Lantian County’s curfew policy and let Lantian County The county has become the first city that never sleeps in Datang! At that time, it will attract merchants from all over the world to settle in Lantian County. Instead of expanding at that time, it is better to make plans as soon as possible!"

Major He County was stunned by Li Zexuan's description of the grand blueprint for the future of Lantian County. After a long pause, he said: "Master Hou has a long-term vision and admires the officials!"

Li Zexuan took another sip of fairy tea and waved his hand: "Okay! Don't flatter! Sometimes natural disasters are not terrible, but the terrible thing is! Especially in the locust-affected country, it is most likely that people with ulterior motives will confuse people. You must pay attention to this! This time Benhou will bring a telegraph machine. If you are in a hurry, you can go directly to Qingque and ask him to send a telegram to Benhou. Benhou will come back quickly!"

Li Zexuan has a hunch in his heart. He always feels that a major event will happen in Lantian County or Chang'an City recently. If there is a choice, he will definitely not choose to leave Lantian County at this time, but it is impossible because This unwarranted premonition caused the children of Hanjiazhuang and the students of Yanhuang Academy to go to other states and counties alone for disaster relief, so he could only choose to go in person. For the sake of insurance, he also planned to bring a telegraph machine.

What I have to say is that the telegraph in the workshop has been greatly improved compared to the past, with the addition of a radio frequency amplifier circuit and a diode current detector, and its ability to send and receive telegrams has been improved. It is more than doubled. Although it is still a little far away from the goal of "Tianli Communication" set by Li Zexuan, there is still no problem with the communication for hundreds of miles!

Moreover, now that the lead battery is available, the battery life of the telegraph is greatly guaranteed, and there is no need to worry about half of the telegraph being out of power!

"The next officer obeys!"

Listening to what Li Zexuan said was really serious, the county magistrate He quickly bowed his hand to Li Zexuan with a solemn expression.

"That's it! The beneficiaries who should be confessed have been confessed to you! You go back and work!"

Li Zexuan saw that it was getting dark, so he sent tea to the guests.

"The next official retire!"

The county magistrate He arched his hands and left.

After a while, Li Zexuan left the study. After asking the maid where Han Yuxi was, Li Zexuan went directly to the wing of the west courtyard.

"Lady, are you helping to pack up your husband so early?"

In the afternoon, the overwhelming locusts crossed the border, and the elders in the family saw them. After Li Zexuan returned home, he also told the family that he would take the Tianji brigade to the other county to eradicate locusts. Although Mrs. Li was unwilling, Hearing Li Zexuan said that this was what Li Er meant, Mrs. Li couldn’t speak up against it. As for Li Jingmo and Ye Guozhong, they strongly supported Li Zexuan’s going to other counties to eradicate locusts. They both believed in the cycle of cause and effect and believed that the more good Li Zexuan did. More, you can get more blessings!

After arriving in the bedroom, Li Zexuan saw that Han Yuxi was helping him tidy up his clothes, and said softly.

Han Yuxi folded her clothes and replied: "Although the grandfather is leaving the next morning, but the concubine is afraid that there will be omissions, so she can only organize some in advance!"

Li Zexuan couldn't help but smile and said: "For my husband, I am going out for disaster relief, not for fun. Just bring two sets of clothes for change. Why bother?"

Han Yuxi turned around, staring at Li Zexuan with a look of expression, and said: "You are the concubine's concubine, and the concubine hopes that you will not suffer wherever you go! Concubine, you really can't bring your concubine with you this time. Are you going there?"

Li Zexuan walked over and took Han Yuxi into his arms, sighed, and said: "No! The lady is unwilling to suffer for her husband, so she can't bear to suffer for her husband! You just stay at home and be your husband. It won’t be long before you leave and you will be back!"

"Um~!"

Han Yuxi gave a soft "um", and then said: "The concubine will help Xianggong take care of the Nuantang Foundation. This time the locust plague broke out in Guanzhong area. If the Xianggong is unable to catch it, the Nuantang Foundation can also Provide some support for Xiang Gong!"

Li Zexuan's eyes lit up and he said with joy: "Hey! For my husband, I really forgot this! The lady reminded me! So, if the locust plague is particularly severely damaged, you will pass the warm The Tang Foundation allocated a batch of supplies to rescue!"

Hearing that Li Zexuan finally agreed with his efforts, Han Yuxi nodded happily, and said: "Yeah! Don't worry, Xianggong~ IndoMTL.com~ The Nuantang Foundation is always able to rescue disasters!"

Li Zexuan smiled knowingly, and said: "It's alright! Let's go, eat! Or parents and they have to send someone over to shout!"

"Hmm!"

The next day, early morning.

Today’s “Datang Daily”’s front-page headline—“Nine-Five Supreme, Living Swallowing Locust, How Absurd is the Saying of the Locust God”, made the people who are suffering from the locust plague and depressed in a moment’s mood. The fighting spirit is high!

"God! Your majesty led the hundred officials to swallow locusts?"

"The people have had it, and I am giving one person, and I have spirit, but when it hurts my heart, it is harmless to the people, otherwise I would rather eat my lungs and intestines! Oh! Your majesty's golden body swallows locusts in order to control the locust plague , What else are we afraid of? Go! I will catch locusts after I go back!"

"There is no locust **** in this world, I believe your majesty! Your majesty is the **** who saves our people!"

"In the future, whoever tells Lao Tzu about the locust god, I will be anxious! The locust harms us, so that we have no food, count as a fart locust god! Lao Tzu brought all the four dolls in the family to the ground to catch the locusts. !"

"Yes, yes! Catch the locusts together! Not only can you protect the crops, but you can also sell them to the government for money! Let's catch the locusts together!"

"Your Majesty and Virtue! Your Majesty Sage!"

After seeing the content in the headline, the people wept bitterly. In such an era of monarchs, saints and ministers, the people are undoubtedly extremely happy, especially those who have experienced the troubled times of the Northern and Southern Dynasties. I heard that after Li Er had personally swallowed locusts in order to encourage the people to go down to the fields to catch locusts, the old people knelt down to the palace with tears and chanted "Your Majesty Sage", shaking with excitement!

This is the saint! The eternal sage worthy of all the people of the world to die!

On this day, the world seemed to be moved, because it rained, rain fell in Chang'an, and the world was stained with tears!
