The blessing of the Qing Dynasty is difficult to pass

Chapter 733 is finally here
Yinzhen has always been a very serious person, he doesn't like to show off, and he likes to keep a straight face, as if someone owes him money.

Ordinary emperors love to put on a show, mobilizing teachers and mobilizing crowds to weed a few weeds in the fields, cut some wheat, and then announce it to the world, wishing that the people all over the country would know his benevolence for the people.

Yinzhen is not like this. When he said weeding, he would do it honestly all morning. When he said he was going to cut wheat, he would bend over with a sickle and earnestly cut it all day.

Just like right now, the three provinces of Shanxi, Shanxi and Hebei had a drought first, and now there is an imperial disaster. Standing at the Temple of Heaven, looking at the vast sky, Yinzhen really wants to ask God, if he is dissatisfied with him, then come to him , Let him bear all the punishment of God, what kind of skill is it to take the common people!
This strong feeling is not a show, it comes from his heart.

God sent down locusts to punish his tyranny?Hmph, he just blew up and ate all the locusts, let's see what God plans to do with him!
Standing at the Temple of Heaven, Yinzhen ate a whole plate of locusts, and generously asked civil and military officials to eat with him. If he angered God, he would bear all the punishments alone!

After Xu Zhen said all this, the civil and military officials and the people who were invited into the Temple of Heaven naturally chewed on it.

The ministers are dissatisfied because they are dissatisfied with Yinzhen's various administrative measures, but the common people are different. Yinzhen is cold-faced to other people, but not to the common people. Yinzhen's ninth-five-year-old honor, for them, even offended God with his body , this is so touching!
The common people are simple and easy to satisfy, and the emperors will be overwhelmed with gratitude if they care about them a little bit.

Chew, chew hard, wipe out these locusts!

Yinzhen immediately announced that if locusts came to Hebei Province and the capital, he and Prince Yi would set up a stall at the gate of the city to buy locusts for two catties and one penny!

At worst, he will use his own private treasury to coat these locusts with flour and fry them, and distribute them to the people door-to-door. He doesn't believe that the people will refuse to accept them.

After all, it tastes really good.

Yinzhen publicly issued an order to buy locusts, and the common people spread the word around the capital after returning home.Everyone is gearing up and waiting for the arrival of the locusts. They have never looked forward to the arrival of the locusts as eagerly as this time.

Two catties for one penny, when the locusts will overwhelm the sky, at least a hundred catties can be caught a day, and the whole family will be mobilized, which can earn hundreds of pennies a day!

Big families look down on this small amount of money, but the common people of small households, they are very happy to earn this little copper coin.

Not only in the capital city, Yinzhen also sent people to various places in Hebei to spread the news, and asked the local government to come forward to buy locusts. In short, it can reduce a little loss.

Yuanmingyuan.

Yi Rao sat on the large and comfortable grand teacher's chair, crossed her legs together, kneaded melon seeds, and chatted leisurely with Wanning Shuyao, "Actually, this locust is nothing to be afraid of, isn't it just a bug? Get rid of it, eat it up." !"

Now Wanning and Shu Yao have also eaten locusts, although they both admit that the taste is good, but when they think of the original ugly appearance of locusts, they still feel a little tumbling in their stomachs.

Neither of them answered Yi Rao's words. They were born noble girls, unlike Yi Rao. Although they were the second generation rich, they also suffered in the village since they were young.

Seeing them like this, Yi Rao frowned in distress, "You can't just look at the faces, look at the crabs, they are ugly, but so many people still love to eat them."

"Stop, you don't need to talk anymore." Shu Yao spoke to stop Yi Rao from continuing.

Because she already knew all kinds of heavy-tasting food that Yi Rao talked about when persuading the girls in the school, she really didn't want to hear it a second time!
Yi Rao smiled and said, "I'm talking about another thing. I remember reading it in a certain miscellaneous book before, saying that people in a certain place like to eat flies, and they like to eat corn fly pancakes the most. Wrap flies in corn tortillas and eat them."

Wanning "..."

Shu Yao "..."

"Not only flies, but also people eat spiders, so the world is full of wonders. Compared with those weird things, locusts are easier to accept."

Yi Rao made a conclusion with a smile.

Wanning couldn't stop shaking her head, "In the future, I'll read less messy books. If I have that free time, I might as well read more serious books."

Yi Rou just laughed when she heard this, and didn't talk to her.

People who are ugly should read more books, and people who are poor should read more books, but she is neither ugly nor poor, so why should she read those so-called serious books?
Seeing that Yi Rao couldn't listen, Wanning sighed helplessly.

Thinking of the coming locust plague, he couldn't help but frown.Although the countermeasures have been prepared, they still have no idea. After all, for thousands of years, people have been resigned to the locust plague, and never thought of taking the initiative to resist.

I don't know if there are any preparations for this time.

If it doesn't work, the locust plague is still raging, the people are hungry, and Shisi is preparing to make trouble outside again, alas...

Knowing what Wanning was worried about, Yi Rao comforted her, "Sister-in-law Si, if you want to be more open, we've done everything we can. Let's see God's will for the rest."

Wanning smiled wryly, "God's will? Isn't today's will to send all these disasters?"

"Fourth sister-in-law, you are the queen, how can you think like this, you should firmly believe that man can conquer the sky!" Yi Rao waved her fist and made a cheering gesture.

"I have no idea."

Not only did she have no bottom, even Yinzhen had no bottom, and Yinzhen was even ready to go to war.

The locust plague was not handled well, and Fourteen incited the people to rebel, which was his worst plan.Yinxiang and the grain and grass he bought before were not only for the rescue of the victims, but also for the war.

In front of the locusts this time, waiting is suffering, not only for Yinzhen, but also for the common people.

Everyone is looking forward to the locust plague coming soon, coming soon.

In the midst of everyone's expectations, the plague of locusts finally came.

Covering the sky and blocking out the sun, the whole world is full of green locusts, they stay on the tender leaves, gnawing big mouthfuls, whether it is the crops in the field or the weeds and trees on the roadside, they will not let go.

They bump into people in groups, and they are not afraid of people at all.

They are not afraid of people, and people are not afraid of them, especially now that Yinzhen has issued an order, two catties and one penny, and the people who want this money are all holding big bags, and the whole family, young and old, will go to "catch locusts!"

Worried about rising food prices, the common people would have to spend more money to buy food. Yinzhen also set up a food stall outside the city, and those who wanted to exchange food for food, and those who wanted to exchange copper coins for copper coins.

Although locusts are ferocious when eating crops, people are the most ferocious under the trend of profit. The people in the city and the surrounding villages are almost always mobilized to catch locusts.
