Chapter 274 Not enough locusts
Zhu Gaochi looked at the four-legged gold-swallowing beast, and his hands were still holding the fried locusts hanging in the air, as if he was struggling to stuff the locusts into his mouth or put them back into the plate, and then push the plate to Zhu Laosi?
Zhu Laosi's calm and slightly gloomy face seemed to be brewing a volcano. His right hand, which was still stroking his beard, changed back and forth, from his fist to his palm knife to his eagle claw, finally turned into a yang finger, his eyes full of murderous aura: "You ones! None of them are filial!"
The locusts in Zhu Gaochi's hand finally stuffed into his mouth, but he didn't dare to chew it well and forced him to swallow it, causing his throat to hurt a little, and even the voice of his speech was deformed: "Dad, my son sees this thing is ugly, it's a bit dry, so..."
The further he said, Zhu Gaochi's voice became lower and the four-legged gold-swalking beast caught another locust without any hesitation, and walked to Zhu Laosi in a rush, stuffing it into Zhu Laosi's mouth, and shouted: "Great grandpa, it's so delicious!"
It was raining just now, but in a flash, it became cloudy and sunny. Zhu Laosi performed a trick called face change with practical actions: "Okay, okay, okay, so good!"
The lips and teeth are fragrant! The crispy smell is filled with a fragrant smell of plants and trees, and the taste forms a very sharp contrast with its own appearance.
Zhu Laosi simply pulled the plate and grabbed two locusts under the strange eyes of a group of people. One was stuffed into the mouth of the four-legged gold-swalking beast and the other into his own mouth. The two of them started eating it in a separate way.
Zhu Gaochi looked at Zhu Laosi for the time being and didn't care about him for the time being. While he was relieved, he saw Yang Shaofeng and Zhu Zhanji standing in the room stupidly. He immediately pointed to the kitchen: "What are you doing here? Don't you fry two plates?"
After leaving the door, Zhu Zhanji, who was still holding the locusts in his hand and never sending them to his mouth, was still confused. After looking at them for several times, he asked suspiciously: "It's so delicious?"
Yang Shaofeng couldn't help rolling his eyes and asked back, "Can your four-legged gold-swallowing beast lie?"
"No," Zhu Zhanji stuffed the locust into his mouth and chewed it twice, and then a look like a four-legged gold-swallowing beast appeared on his face: "It smells so good!"
After swallowing the crispy and refreshing fried locust in a few bites, Zhu Zhanji's face showed a rather embarrassed look: "By the way, is this thing the only way to eat?"
"How is that possible?"
Yang Shaofeng raised his legs and walked towards the kitchen, and replied with a smile: "This thing can be fried for food, roasted, and pickled into pickles as a side dish for wine, which is also extremely refreshing."
After Yang Shaofeng said this, Zhu Zhanji suddenly felt that his mouth began to secrete saliva madly: "Really? Hurry up and try it."
Yang Shaofeng stopped and looked at Zhu Zhanji with malicious intentions. At noon, which bastard was sprinkling dog food in the field?
It was not until after seeing Zhu Zhanji's body that Yang Shaofeng uttered two words lightly: "No!"
Zhu Zhanji took a step back and said suspiciously: "Why? If you have any conditions, just ask!"
Yang Shaofeng shook his head with a smile and said, "Because my wife hasn't eaten fried locusts yet, she has to let my wife taste it first and then consider other ways.
In addition, this thing can not only treat night blindness, but also treat whooping cough. Grinding it into powder and mix it in rice to feed it can supplement nutrition. Adding it into feed to feed it can also make the livestock chickens and ducks stronger, and it is simply a treasure all over.
Now you have to eat this thing in one big mouthful, but do you know what it means to supply locust powder to border soldiers?"
"silver!"
Zhu Zhanji blurted out, but after saying that, he regretted it: "How can you say money in this matter? It can obviously prevent the soldiers of the border from being blind, but attacking the enemy at night without fear of the enemy's attack at night is a great thing that benefits the country and the people!"
Yang Shaofeng nodded with satisfaction, his face full of relief: "It seems that you have understood the true meaning of how to be a good prince.
Yes, it’s a great thing that benefits the country and the people. For example, how much money our brothers have made from it, don’t care about such details.”
Zhu Zhanji was about to nod, but suddenly shook his head suddenly: "No! Without the treasury, do you think Mr. Xia is willing to do it?"
Yang Shaofeng spread his hands helplessly and asked, "Can you guarantee that there will be locust plagues every year? This thing is basically a one-time transaction. After passing this village, there will be no store left. Do you still expect to give a component of the treasury?"
While he was talking, the locusts in the pot had already come out of the pot, and Zhu Zhanji didn't care about the hotness. After Yang Shaofeng was ready, he immediately grabbed two of them, chewing them hard and said vaguely: "This thing is so delicious, why don't the people eat it?"
Yang Shaofeng pointed to the fried oil that had turned black in the pot and said helplessly: "Does the locusts need oil? After using this oil a few times, the color will be so dark that it will be. Can the people afford it?"
Zhu Zhanji nodded thoughtfully, and then he thoughtfully said after two locusts were eaten, "It's okay to do this."
Seeing that Yang Shaofeng was a little confused, Zhu Zhanji continued, "If you let the people eat locusts, they may not be able to fill their stomachs, and they may not be able to afford them. It would be better to let them catch the locusts and sell them to us. With money, they will be hungry."
Yang Shaofeng nodded, took out a bottle of Shenxianju and poured it on two of them, and then slowly said: "It's this. The reason why locust plague is terrible is that there are too many things and the people dare not slaughter it.
The most important thing is, what if the people dare to kill this thing? After all, it will not be exchanged for food.
Now, people can exchange money for locusts when they catch locusts. If they have money, they can buy food. Even if they want to make the family have enough food, they will actively kill locusts to sell them."
The locust doesn't know who they are provoking.
After finally growing up, I happily ran to the field to eat like my ancestors. In a blink of an eye, a large group of bipedal beasts took nets and other things to attack the entire clan.
These biped beasts seem to have extremely lacked respect for the Locust God. It is not enough to just capture the descendants of the Locust God, but they are all put into the boiling water.
As we all know, the Locust God may not be afraid of boiling water, but his descendants are afraid of death.
Do you think this is over?
No, the descendants of the Locust God who were thrown into boiling water were exposed for another three days!
Three days after the corpse was exploded, it was packed into a pocket again. After a while of bumpyness, it was taken out bag by bag, thrown under the stone mill and ground into powder. After putting it into the bag, it piled up together!
This generation of locusts is simply the shame of the locust god!
Especially the four-legged gold-swallowing beast in Zhu Zhanji's family, he actually wanted to pull Zhu Laosi to accompany him to catch locusts. The theory of the four-legged gold-swallowing beast is very simple. If you catch the locusts, you can send them to your godfather's house. The godfather will wrap the locusts with flour and fry them, which will be crispy!
What made Zhu Gaochi even more angry was that Zhu Laosi really accompanied the four-legged gold-swalking beast to catch locusts.
Do you think all my three brothers were picked up from the garbage dump?
...
The four-legged gold-swalking beast held the long pole in its hand, and from time to time, he rushed to Zhu Laosi's side to seek credit by force.
Zhu Laosi also looked disgusting with his grandson, and spoiled his great-grandson to the sky. Who could believe that the person in front of him was wearing a cloth dress, holding a big pocket in his hand, following a little kid and helping to rush locusts to the locusts, was the current Ming emperor?
Even Zhu Gaochi wanted to go back to Shuntian Mansion and go to the tomb of Empress Renxiao Xu to ask if he was Zhu Laosi's biological son?
Not far away, Yang Shaofeng reached out and grabbed a handful of locusts from his waist pocket and stuffed them into his mouth. Then he grabbed two more and handed them to Lin Tang: "Try it, this thing is really edible and delicious."
Lin Tang's pretty face turned pale. Lin Ruobing, who was following Lin Tang, reached out without hesitation to grab the locust from Yang Shaofeng's hand and stuff it into his mouth. While chewing, he said vaguely: "Sister, it's really delicious, can you taste it?"
"Damn girl! She doesn't look like a daughter!"
Lin Tang took a step back and was beaten to death and was unwilling to pick up the locusts that Yang Shaofeng had caught again. Hu Shanxiang, who was also pale next to him, also leaned towards Lin Tang and said to Zhu Zhanji: "Take it away!"
Lin Ruobing looked at the two of them as if they were afraid, and immediately laughed: "Oh, my sister who was quick to attack now looks like her daughter's house?"
Lin Tang glared at Lin Ruobing with an unkind look and cursed: "Damn girl! Let's see how you get married in the future!"
Lin Ruobing reached out to Yang Shaofeng, squeezed his eyes, and smiled and said, "Brother-in-law, give me some more."
After taking another handful of locusts from Yang Shaofeng, Lin Ruobing smiled and said to Lin Tang: "I dare to eat even if my unmarried daughter is not married. What kind of lady do you pretend to be a married daughter?"
Yang Shaofeng looked helplessly at his sister-in-law quarreling with his wife. He wanted to persuade him but could not persuade him. At that moment, he could only turn his head to Zhu Zhanji and said, "Let's go, let's continue walking forward. How are the people arrested every year?"
Zhu Zhanji took two steps forward, then signaled Yang Shaofeng to come and see the people in front: "Pockets, bamboo baskets, net bags, adults and children all go into battle. I guess if there is the same time, the locust plague will be almost done?"
Yang Shaofeng nodded, took out a locust from his pocket and stuffed it into his mouth, and then said vaguely: "I originally planned to keep some locusts and feed them to see what the difference is between the chickens and ducks fed like this and the ones fed from ordinary people's homes.
Now I can't see it anymore. Just a few locusts are now, I'm afraid that they may not even eat enough, let alone feeding them to chickens and ducks."
