Chapter 294.
Beside Zou Zhizhou, stood an old man and a young man, and not far away, there were more than a dozen government servants in soap clothes.

"Lord Zhizhou, why are you here?" Wang Li was embarrassed.

"Hehehe..." Zou Zhizhou sneered.

Zou Zhizhou listened to what Wang Lizheng said.

If he didn't come, he wouldn't know that in Wang Lizheng's mind, he was an image of "ignorant ass"!
Thinking of him, Zou Mingtao, when he was the county magistrate in Changzhou County, he often went to the fields to talk to old farmers, how could he not know about the farm wall?This Wang Lizheng also underestimated him, Zou Mingtao.

"Lord Zhizhou, may I ask why you are here this time?" Wang Lizheng asked with a sneer.

Wang Lizheng felt a little uncomfortable when he said behind his back and was overheard.

"It's not expensive, it's just a common thing." Zou Zhizhou replied coldly.

However, no matter how much dissatisfaction Zou Zhizhou had with Wang Lizheng, he could only put it aside at this time.

The business was important, Zou Zhizhou couldn't care less about settling accounts with Wang Lizheng.

"Folks, do you still remember the fire in the official warehouse in Ping'an Town last year, and the rain fell from the sky?" Zou Zhizhou ignored Wang Lizheng's flattery, turned around and said to the villagers.

"I know, I know, it's the gods who have blessed our Pingjiang Mansion! As soon as the fire started in the Guancang, it began to rain." A villager boldly replied.

"Yes, our Pingjiang Mansion is blessed by the gods. The rain fell from the sky last time was not a coincidence, but it was done by the fairy in Wutong Mountain." Zou Zhizhou announced loudly.

"Wow~!"

"Master Fairy is merciful!"

"This time, will Master Fairy save us?"

"It would be great if Master Fairy could let the locusts leave our village."

The villagers looked at Zou Zhizhou expectantly.

Zou Zhizhou's face froze.

These villagers really can dream.

He just said about the rain from the sky by the Fairy, and the villagers already thought of asking the Fairy to take care of the locust plague?
"My lord Fairy is cultivating in seclusion in Wutong Mountain. This time, my lord Fairy has no time to do anything about the locust plague." Zou Zhizhou deserved to be Zou Zhizhou, and he immediately made an excuse for "Master Fairy".

"What a pity!"

"Is Master Fairy not free?"

"Why doesn't Master Fairy protect our Dawang Village?"

The sighs of the villagers sounded one after another.

"However, no matter how busy Lord Fairy was, he did not just ignore the plague of locusts. Do you know that this Chen Lizheng belongs to Lord Fairy, and their Xinghua Village has already wiped out several locust plagues with the four methods given by Lord Fairy?" A thousand catties of locusts. Now, there are only a few locusts in Xinghua Village, which will not cause disaster at all." Zou Zhizhou felt a little proud when he said this.

"Wow~!"

"What are the four methods of exterminating locusts?"

"Master Zhizhou, can you teach us the method of exterminating locusts in Dawang Village?"

The villagers asked eagerly.

"Everyone be quiet~! Listen to me first." Zou Zhizhou stretched out his hands and pressed down.

There is no way, there are too many people, and each person said something, Zou Zhizhou only heard a "buzzing" sound in his ears, and he couldn't make out what everyone was saying.

However, Zou Zhizhou was very satisfied with the excuse he made.

That's right, it was Zou Zhizhou's idea to use the method of exterminating locusts taught by "Master Fairy" as a gimmick.

The villagers of Dawang Village are too superstitious.

It is not an easy task for the villagers of Dawang Village to deal with the locusts, which they regard as gods.

That's why Zou Zhizhou borrowed the title of "Master Fairy" to use it.

Zou Zhizhou started with the incident of rain falling from the sky, which made the villagers feel awe of "Master Fairy", and then he said that the method of eradicating locusts was taught by Master Fairy.

Sure enough, Master Fairy VS Empress Locust.

The villagers in Dawang Village can't think of the Locust Empress at all.

Master Fairy wins.

"Next, let Chen Lizheng from Xinghua Village teach you how to eliminate locusts." Zou Zhizhou pointed to Chen Daniu beside him, pushed Chen Daniu out, and said, "Chen Lizheng, tell everyone what to do, and tell everyone to hurry up." Follow along."

Chen Daniu received Zou Zhizhou's hint, cleared his throat, and said, "Folks! I have three ways to kill locusts here. The villagers of Xinghua Village have all used these three methods. One, put the locusts at home. of······"

Under the adoring eyes of the villagers in Dawang Village, Chen Daniu shared his experience in eradicating locusts.

The villagers listened attentively.

After Chen Daniu's words came to an end, the villagers started discussing in a hurry.

"Father, Gouwa, I think Chen Lizheng's methods are quite reliable."

"Isn't it! How can there be any unreliable reason for Master Fairy's method?"

"Our Dawang Village is blessed! We are blessed by Lord Fairy!"

"Let's go, go home and catch the poultry. By the way, let all the family members go to the fields to catch locusts."

The villagers acted quickly.

"You...you..." Wang Li was trying to stop the villagers, but Zou Zhizhou was staring at him, but he didn't dare.

When the villagers ran away, Wang Li was grimacing and asked Zou Zhizhou: "Master Zhizhou, can locusts really be caught? The locust lady will not blame you?"

In the minds of Lord Xianzi and Zou Zhizhou, the gods he had always thought of were just little bugs who could be beaten and killed at will, and Wang Lizheng was somewhat incapable of accepting it.

"I can catch it for sure. Didn't you hear what Chen Lizheng said, Master Fairy's apprentice uses locusts for cooking! Fried locusts are delicious, delicious and nutritious." Zou Zhizhou comforted Wang Lizheng when he saw Wang Lizheng's pale face.

"Fried locusts?" Wang Lizheng was stunned.

"Yes! In Changzhou County, fried locusts have become a popular delicacy everywhere. By the way, Wang Lizheng, tell everyone that the locusts you catch are packed in cloth bags and will be exchanged at the government office of the magistrate tomorrow. Food. One catty of locusts is exchanged for one catty of dried sweet potatoes, and there is no default." Zou Zhizhou said cheerfully.

Zou Zhizhou fell in love with the taste immediately after eating the "fried locust" that the kitchen rushed to make.

Delicious and nutritious deep-fried locusts will not go bad after half a month.

Zou Zhizhou felt that he would not get tired of eating it for another ten days and half a month.

Besides, even if the fried locusts were not tasty, Zou Zhizhou would collect the locust carcasses for the sake of their high nutritional value.

Even if it is not eaten by humans, at least it can be fed to pigs and chickens, right?
With the carrot of "locusts for food" hanging in front of him, Zou Zhizhou is not afraid that the villagers will not work hard.

"Really? One catty of locusts for one catty of dried sweet potatoes?" Wang Lizheng's eyes lit up.

It takes three catties of sweet potatoes to dry out one catty of dried sweet potatoes!
Hearing what Zou Zhizhou said, Wang Li felt that his whole body was full of strength.
