Zhao Junjie didn't ask any more questions and arranged a team of confidants to rush to Chang'an overnight.

Chang'an is about four or five hundred miles away from Qingping County.

The soldiers of this team knew the situation was urgent and never stopped. They ran back and forth between Chang'an and Qingping County one day and one night.

By the evening of the next day, he had already returned with 200,000 yuan in silver.

According to Mu Changqing's instructions, the 200,000 taels of silver were not used for silver notes, but after exchange in Chang'an, the copper plates were filled with several large boxes of silver of various sizes.

Looking at the young soldiers who were breathing heavily and their faces turned red, Mu Changqing's face was moved. He didn't say much gratitude, but just said thank you for your hard work.

"Unfortunate!"

After wiping a handful of sweat on his face, several young generals looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

Then Zhao Junjie arranged for a meal and rest.

"Tell me, now you can tell me what the money you have is for?"

Standing on the city wall of Qingping County, Mu Changqing looked at the fog and fire outside the city, and his eyes were a little sad.

Zhao Junjie stood by her chest with her chest in her arms, but her tone had become softer.

Regardless of the reason, the person in front of him is willing to give out all his worth to cure the locust plague. This is the only thing that no one in the world can compare with him.

Mu Changqing didn't reply to her but asked back.

"Miss Zhao, what do you think is the most terrifying thing under this natural disaster?"

What is the most terrifying thing?

One sentence made Zhao Junjie a little confused.

"An epidemic disease after natural disasters? Taking advantage of the chaos, or food shortages..."

He slowly expressed his opinion, but saw Mu Changqing shook his head slightly and then sighed.

"These are terrible, but the most terrifying thing is the broken hearts of the people."

"Water can carry a boat or a boat can be overturned. Once the people lose their hearts, the family will not be home, and the country will not be country. Perhaps this is the ultimate goal of the person behind them who releases the locust plague by themselves."

"In the face of natural disasters, people's hearts are fragile. Once they gather at a burst point, they will rise up with a shout with a shout. This is the most terrifying and difficult situation."

In fact, Mu Changqing's rash words were already a bit rude, but Zhao Junjie, who was standing beside him, made his mind buzz.

Water can carry a boat or cover it.

If you lose the hearts of the people, the country will not be in power.

One shout and one hundred responses, and one rises up.

I think of the tragic situation in the world that I have seen over the past few days. The suffering people believe in the locust gods to punish them and blame them for their lack of virtue.

Zhao Junjie shivered for no reason.

"Aren't you curious why I drew so much money overnight?"

"That's because the current situation is urgent."

"At present, the people near Qingping County are suffering the most severely. I don't know how many families are displaced on the verge of collapse. What they want at this time is to be able to have a full meal, have a habitat, and allow them to see the dawn of hope left in their lives."

"The people are the simplest. They don't have high requirements. They can't understand the decisions of the rulers. It's too far away from them. They only know that the court can still let them live and give them a bite of food. This is enough."

Looking at Mu Changqing slowly telling him, Zhao Junjie listened quietly.

The last ray of sunset shone on him, and his whole body seemed to be covered with a layer of holy light.

He turned around and looked at Zhao Junjie, and Mu Changqing smiled.

"Now that locusts are raging, the most urgent task is to find ways to kill these locusts. Otherwise, they will continue to reproduce, and even if the whole country is working hard, they may not be able to calm the locust plague."

"so?"

After replying in a daze, Zhao Junjie's face looked a little solemn, as if she guessed Mu Changqing's intention.

There was no secret of selling anything, Mu Changqing continued.

"I guess you are having a headache for these overwhelming locusts now, right?"

"I have an idea, and it is precisely why I have transferred so much money to come here."

"That is the national plan to hunt locusts."

"One person's power is limited. If it is the power of the whole county, or even the entire Dayan, can the locust plague be eliminated?"

"Man conquers nature, and all natural disasters and man-made disasters are in front of the people's unity. There are no difficulties and obstacles that can stop them from moving forward."

With a word, the whole world became quiet.

Only Mu Changqing's last sentence was left, echoing slowly over the city wall.

Now that locusts are raging, the soldiers from the Southern Camp alone cannot be completely eliminated.

Mu Changqing's original intention was to mobilize all the people in the two counties.

And this 200,000 taels of silver played a crucial role in it.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t want to hunt, it doesn’t matter if you are afraid. I will always be moved by spending money to buy it, right?

As long as some people participate and get benefits, other people will naturally join in.

Silver is a key part, and food is also essential.

Now the disaster relief grain has arrived at Qingping County Government, but the grain cannot maintain the food for the entire county for several days.

And the locusts that are hunted have value in exploitation.

Locusts can be used as medicine and have extremely high nutritional value. According to the color identification, those locusts containing rich toxins will be eliminated. Aren’t the others natural food?

Although it may also contain a small amount of toxins, those toxins are insignificant after high temperature cooking.

What's more, if you still eat people in famine, how can you not eat locusts?

And this Qingping County Government is the first stop to treat locusts.

Once the locust plague in Qingping County, where the most severe disaster situation is, can be eliminated, then the people of the world will naturally understand that locust plague is not terrible, but can also be eliminated by human resources.

Then the panic atmosphere of Dayan will be broken now, mobilizing the passion of the people to participate in the hunting of locusts for the whole people.

However, some things are useless just to say, and only when the effect is done will convince people.

This is also the reason why Mu Changqing directly transferred money here without thinking.

After hearing Mu Changqing's slow speech, Zhao Junjie stood there in a daze, looking at him with a burning gaze, as if this was the first time that he really met the person in front of him, and then he subconsciously spoke.

"I still have some money, I'll get it now."

Haha, Mu Changqing interrupted her.

"Now 200,000 taels is enough, so you should leave the money for yourself as a dowry."

Originally, Zhao Junjie would inevitably feel displeased when she heard this, but at this moment there was no feeling of disgust in her heart.

(PS: In the previous chapter, many readers said that locusts in locust plague are poisonous, which is true, but the severity of the toxins of locusts can be distinguished based on the color of the locusts. It is actually unnecessary to consider locusts being poisonous at such a critical moment.)

(Everyone is about to starve to death, is that little toxin worth considering?)

(There have been recorded several times in historical books. In "Wu Shu", Yuan Shu was in Shouchun, and the people were hungry and poor, so they used mulberries and locusts as dry rice.)

(In the first year of Zhenyuan, the summer locusts came from the sea in the east, and ended in Helong in the west, covering the sky. It lasted for ten days. The plants and animals were left with no remains, and the hunger was left. In autumn, the great locusts were eaten by the fields and crops, and the people were hungry and caught locusts for food.)

From this we can see that eating locusts is not unacceptable.

(And then in the latest chapters, a reader said in the comment section that the protagonist, The Virgin Mary bitch, was deleted by me. After hearing this, the author felt a little uncomfortable. I wanted to write a flesh-and-blood protagonist, rather than the protagonist who only knows how to pick up girls and pretend. In the face of a disaster, how could this behavior be called the Virgin Mary? I believe that no one can sit idly by and watch this happen in reality.)

(Although this is this novel, which is written by Du Zhuan, the characters in the works also have souls and are all living lives. How can we ignore them? Perhaps it is because of the epidemic in the past two years that I have seen too many touching and sad scenes, so I did not hesitate at all when writing this plot.)
