Crossing Wu Dalang starts from selling cakes

Chapter 56 Lieutenant Wuxian is really a god! [Please collect it! 】

And when more than 300 chickens and ducks rushed to the field.

Good guy, it can be said that chickens are flying around here. The army of animals seems to be very excited to see the locusts, sweeping across the sky and covering the sky.

Many locusts were pecked and eaten by chickens and ducks.

Especially the duck, which is a big mouthful, and it is eaten with relish.

"Quack quack, Guoguoguo..."

The scene is spectacular, chickens and ducks are everywhere, sweeping the locusts here.

In less than half an hour, many locusts in the fields were eaten by chickens and ducks.

The adult locusts were frightened and some flew away, but many were eaten and cleared out quickly.

Chickens and ducks are swimming around, still eating.

Wu Zhi glanced at the situation in the field and heaved a sigh of relief.

He took a look and found that the locust plague here is actually not very serious, but if it continues to expand, it will be troublesome, and it is definitely not something that livestock can solve.

Around Yanggu County, there are small swarms, many of which are larvae, which can be eaten by livestock.

Even if they couldn't eat it, many locusts flew away and scattered.

The locusts in the plague of locusts become irritable due to gathering, and their bodies will change color, causing toxins to be produced in the body.

It's just that these chickens can even eat centipedes.

Locusts are not as poisonous as centipedes and spiders. These livestock can digest them after eating them, so there is no big problem.Instead, it nourishes them.

As long as the plague of locusts is killed in the cradle, it can be solved.

The ancient people didn't know much about locusts. They believed that locusts were the emperor of insects and gods.

People think that where locusts are rampant, the local officials must be immoral, which will trigger the invasion of the gods.Even if there is a disaster, many people wait until they realize that the locusts have swept away the food and flew away, and then they can only starve, causing great turmoil.

Now Wu Zhi came forward and used this method to suspend the situation.

After some processing, it will be fine.

Seeing this scene, Fan Yan, the county magistrate, the master Bo, the government servants and the people present were all shocked!

Really effective ah?
This……

This Wu county lieutenant is really a god!
It's not that no one has thought about this method, and not many people have implemented it. Now in the hands of Wuxian Lieutenant, the locust plague has really been solved.

By the time the sun goes down, the locusts here are basically gone.

Fan Yan's excited fingers trembled on the spot, and he looked at Wu Zhi with eyes full of admiration!
It is his blessing to have such a county lieutenant by his side!

"Great! My lord, the locusts have really been eaten! Although there are some damages in the field, most of them have been preserved, so there will be no harvest!"

"Thank you, my lord. My lord is really clever! These chickens and ducks have eaten the locusts, and we have a harvest!"

Many people were very excited.

For the common people, the harvest is greater than the sky!

Many people knelt down and kowtowed.

The county magistrate sighed: "Unexpectedly, Lieutenant Wu not only cooks delicious food, but also knows how to deal with disasters!"

Zhu Bo was still somewhat dissatisfied with Wu Zhi being the county lieutenant before. Although he was acting temporarily, he had nothing to say at the moment, so he couldn't help but bow his hands:
"Lieutenant Wu County is resourceful and resourceful. I have seen it today. It turns out that the locust plague can be solved in this way. It seems that our previous doubts were superfluous! We are ashamed of Lieutenant Wu's strategy!"

No one was more excited than Fan Yan.

Promoting Wu Zhi is really the most correct choice.

Now what he said, he also wanted to correct the position of Wu Zhi, the county lieutenant.

now.

Faced with the gratitude of many people present, Wu Zhi said: "You don't have to thank me, everything is because the county magistrate is worried about the people, we are just helping the county magistrate to control the locust disaster, the money is also given by the county magistrate, everyone should thank you , thank you magistrate!"

"Yes, the county magistrate is a good official in our Yanggu County!"

"Thank you, county magistrate!"

"My lord, I will stay here to eat and walk today, it's getting late!"

Many people began to talk about it.

However, Wu Zhi's own credit for increasing the county magistrate's prestige made Fan Yan feel deeply moved.

Under the hood, Wu Zhi is by no means the talent of a county lieutenant, at least it is the talent of officials above the third rank.

Fan Yan said something on the scene, and at the same time asked the nearby villagers to tell other places that this method will be used to treat disasters in the future.

At the same time, he said to Wu Zhi: "Wuxian Lieutenant has made great contributions to eradicating the locust plague. With this great contribution, the county lieutenant's position will definitely be approved by the governor."

Hearing this, Wu Zhi understood.

His county lieutenant is only temporary, without the above documents and registration.

In the Song Dynasty, there were various ways to become an official, such as imperial examinations, and grace!
The imperial examination is easy to understand.

Enyin, my father is an official of a certain level. If I were a man, then my brothers and I could be taken care of.If my father's office is big enough, we'll all get one.In addition to relying on referrals.

It is also possible to be recommended by a high-ranking official, but it has nothing to do with ordinary people.

If Wu Zhi has meritorious service, it is not impossible to be appreciated by the superiors, after all, the county lieutenant is not a high-ranking official.

Fan Yan: "This time the locust plague has been wiped out, and I feel at ease. I will report this matter to the governor of Dongping Prefecture, and then report it to the emperor. If you are appreciated, your county lieutenant position will be included in the register soon."

"Thank you sir!"

Wu Zhi temporarily acted as the county lieutenant, and also wanted to confirm his identity.

Of course, if it doesn't work, forget it.There are other ways, Wu Zhi is not worried.

Wu Zhi and the others did not stay here overnight, but had a meal with nearby villagers.

The villagers were grateful, and after eating, someone asked: "Master County Magistrate, do you want us to help drive these chickens and ducks to Yanggu County?"

They bought the chickens and ducks, so they must belong to the county magistrate.

The county magistrate shook his head: "No need, these chickens and ducks will be rushed to other villages tomorrow to help eliminate the locust plague, and they will be given to you when it is done!"

When everyone heard this, they couldn't believe it.

"Master, so many chickens and ducks will be given to us as long as we help other places eliminate locust plagues?"

The villagers couldn't believe it.

You know, this is dozens of taels of silver.

Even if they share, they can get a lot.

The county magistrate's move made many people even more grateful. As for helping other villages to eliminate the locust plague, this is not a big deal.

Also agreed.

The county magistrate and the others didn't stay long, and left here that night.

As for the locust plague, as the army of chickens and ducks swept across, the locusts were quickly eaten, and naturally there was no climate.

The anxious matter is resolved.

Fan Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

Wu Zhi said: "Master County Magistrate, although the locusts have temporarily stopped, we must not take it lightly. We must mobilize the nearby people to catch the scattered locusts, so as to completely suppress them!"

Fan Yan: "You're right. Although livestock have eaten a batch of locusts, there are still hidden dangers that need to be resolved. It's just...it's a bit difficult to mobilize a large number of people to complete this task, but I will give an order, it depends Will the people cooperate?"

Wu Zhi smiled and said: "No, I have my own way"...

Seeing Wu Zhi's leaving back, Fan Yan couldn't help being stunned for a long time, and then he thought about how to write a memorandum to the superior, so that he could successfully present it to the emperor...

At this moment Wu Zhi went home.

I have 150 taels of silver in my hand.

Among them, 80 taels was the reward for solving the locusts, and 50 taels was the county magistrate’s supplementary money for buying chicken and duck pads for Wu Zhi, which was more than a dozen taels more.

The county magistrate insisted on giving him the fortress, but Wu Zhi refused to refuse.

In fact, Wu Zhi knew that the main reason for his success this time was that the locust plague was not a big one, and it didn't take off at all.

If it is really that kind of large-scale locust plague, where no grass will grow, it will be extremely tragic!
The method of using chickens and ducks is simply not feasible.

It can be said that it is taken for granted.

But it does have some effect in dealing with small locust plagues.It was also a fluke.

the next day.

Wu Zhi immediately spread the news that he wanted to catch locusts, and thirty locusts cost a penny.

Money can turn the devil around.

But the common people who heard the news, heard that catching locusts can make money, still have some doubts.

Can catching locusts be sold for money?

What is this operation?
But because it was the news disseminated by Wu Xianwei, it had a certain authority, so the people nearby were mobilized.

Without further ado, he immediately took all his relatives to the fields to catch locusts to make money.

The news of Wu Zhi's trick to catch locusts to make money spread, causing a great sensation in the local area.

Even some beggars heard the news and ran to the fields.After all, money is such a sweet thing.
