Chapter 1530: : Killing Locusts with Money

Xue Yan followed Wu Qing's head into the Fucheng God Temple and raised his eyes to see a man wearing a purple manglong robe standing in the hall. Just looking at the clothes, he knew that it was a city and immediately bowed to salute.
"Henan Governor Xue Yan has seen the King of the City of Fuming Ling!"
Jiang Hao nodded. "Come up, don't be polite, this time letting Fucheng 隍 call you, it's about the locust disaster and want to talk to you."
"Is the king of Fu Mingling?" Xue Yan said humbly.
"You will tell the whole story before and after." Jiang Hao asked.
Xue Yan began to tell, "Just five days ago, a large number of locusts suddenly appeared in Kaifeng, and they suddenly spread to more than a dozen counties."
"Where locusts pass, it ’s almost like the sky is overcast. The sun that covers them is invisible. The large locusts are more than ten miles wide, and the small ones are several miles away. As soon as they fall, they will take dozens of acres or even hundreds of acres in no time. The crops are completely dry, and wherever the locusts go, no grass remains. "
"At this time, when the upright autumn crops were growing, they were all wiped out, I'm afraid they will be harvested this year."
"I hurriedly reported to the court five hundred li. I just received a response from Her Majesty yesterday. The court's treasury was empty and there was no relief money. I wanted to find a way to rescue the disaster. If the disaster was not good, I would plead guilty."
"Now that the locust swarm is getting bigger and stronger, invading other provinces, and the disasters are severe in all places, although I have issued a disaster relief order, I am afraid it will not help me. I am afraid that this year ’s disaster will be unavoidable. Now I just hope that the provinces can raise a batch of food and let People can live through the winter, and starve fewer people, hey ~~~! "
Xue Yan sighed helplessly.
"The emperor is faint!"
Jiang Hao calmly said.
For a while, Xue Xun was afraid to answer the words, but he had some recognition in his heart of the words of the city.
"It seems that the imperial court can no longer count on it, and now Henan can only find a way to save itself." Jiang Hao said.
Xue Yan's face was bitter. "This disaster may affect two to three million people. To be honest, although my official is a governor, he feels unable to help. Now he can only do his best."
"Don't be discouraged, there are still ways to think." Jiang Hao said affirmatively.
Xue Ye suddenly remembered the identity of the person in front of him, but this is the capital city, a god. Presumably, the adult city capital has a way, and hope is raised in his heart.
"But this matter requires your full cooperation to use your governor's right!" Jiang Hao said.
Xue Ye knew that since the capital city said so, I'm afraid the solution was a bit troublesome, but he is now wandering on the road of life and death. If there is anything else to worry about, he is determined to say: "I don't know what the Lord City Lord can do, I will do my best! "
The governor is the highest military and political chief of a province and has the power to handle the province's civil affairs, justice, supervision, and command.
Jiang Hao looked at Xue Yan and said, "It's very simple, get rid of locusts!"
Xue Xun was shocked in his heart, to kill the locusts. You must know that the ancient people believed that the natural disaster of locusts was punished by heaven. They only dared to drive away but did not dare to kill them. In the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin ordered the locusts. , The people are completely forbidden to do locust killings.
If there is a locust plague or a small locust plague, officials will bring people to worship and pray for the grace of the locust god, the large locust plague, and even the emperor will pray to heaven and pray for sin.
Xue Yan took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and Shen said, "Excuse me, Master Chenghuang, how do you kill locusts!"
Jiang Hao said slowly, "I know that in the past, people only dared to pray for insects, but they didn't work. They had to find a way to eliminate locusts. You use the right of governor to order people everywhere to catch locusts."
"I dare to give this order, afraid that the people will not listen?" Xue Yan frowned.
"There will be a way for the people to listen, Zhu Guang, Litchi, Yuxiang, Pei Ye, and Red Scorpion. Come out," Jiang Hao said.
Brush ~!
Five people appeared next to him, saluting Jiang Hao.
Jiang Hao looked at Xue Yi and said, "I am afraid the disaster is unavoidable. The rations of the people in the second half of the year were all eaten by locusts. How will the people live?"
"I'm going to have five of them scattered and buy locusts in large quantities. How much is it for a penny? If people catch locusts, they can get the money, and they can buy food with the money. Do you think they will abandon it? Regrets, desperate for life? "
Xue Yan's eyes moved. "I think so. If everything is dead, people would rather have enough to say."
"Yes, that's the truth. When they catch the locusts, they will naturally have money to buy food after they sell them. The locusts won't really harm the people, and people will naturally have no scruples over time." Jiang Hao said.
Xue Ye felt that this method was feasible, and immediately said, "I will tell the governments to cooperate fully with the acquisition."
Jiang Hao nodded. "Not only them, but also the cities and towns will cooperate in this matter."
What Xue Xun thought about, "I'm afraid you need to use hundreds of thousands of silver for the acquisition of locusts. This is not a small sum of money. I'm afraid that you need to use the official silver in the treasury. I will order 100,000 silvers. Are you enough ? "
Jiang Hao looked at Xue Yan and asked, "Without the emperor's order, the private use of official money is also a major crime. Afterwards, you are not afraid of the emperor's inquiries?"
Xue Zheng's expression showed fortitude, he pursed his lips, and said firmly: "If he can solve the great disaster in Henan in this way, I'll be willing to bear this responsibility."
Jiang Hao looked at Xue Yan, and suddenly laughed hahaha.
Xue Ye was laughed at unknown, so he was surprised to look at Jiang Hao.
After Jiang Hao laughed, he said to Xue Yi: "Xue Yi, are you interested in being the capital of Henan?"
Xue Yan loves the people with all his heart, dares to act, and knows how to manage for many years. He is indeed a good candidate for the city.
When Xue Yan was overjoyed, he bowed deeply to Jiang Hao, "Xiaguan is willing!"
"Okay, from now on, you are the capital of Henan." Jiang Hao said, took out a white jade seal from his sleeve, and released the engraved brushes of Chunjun Sword. In the name of the city capital of the world, Xue Xuan was granted an official position.
Xue Yan kneeled down to give the seal, and a flash of golden light flashed on his body, putting on a Metropolis official robe.
"Even if you are beheaded by the emperor in the future, you can still be a city cricket in the Yin Division after you die. Oh, although you are not afraid of death, there is no need to use the official bank matters. I will come out of this money. Pen. "Jiang Hao laughed.
"Make money?" The others were puzzled.
"The acquired locusts are not completely useless, because the locust plague is poisonous and people cannot eat more, but chickens and ducks are fine. We can buy a lot of chicken and ducklings, let the counties raise chickens and ducks, and use these locusts to feed and wait for fat. Hey, can you change the money? "Jiang Hao said.
In fact, Jiang Hao bought chickens and ducks and let them eat directly in the fields, but now he wants to change the law to pay people, so he decides to switch to farming.
Everyone immediately realized that there was still such an operation.
"If the people still have scruples, you can let the counties and counties give them dreams, and it is said that they let them do so, and this is their own responsibility."
City God to the Locust God,
In the eyes of ordinary people, the status of the city is definitely higher than that of the locust god. If there is such a dream, ordinary people are probably not so afraid.
"Subordinates understand!" Xue Yan said.
After Jiang Hao spoke, he waved his sleeves at the hall, and suddenly there were more than a dozen large boxes on the ground filled with silver ingots.
He took out a bunch of silver tickets and put them on the box. "These silver tickets are exchanged nationwide. There are 132,000 yuan here, which should be enough."
Another opponent said: "From now on, you will cooperate with Xue Yi to dispatch the cities and counties to buy locusts and raise chickens and ducks."
The ghosts bowed immediately.
"Xue Xun, now whether it is the military and political power in the Yangjian area or the dispatch of the Yinsi Chenghuang city is in your hands, can you handle this matter with confidence now?"
Xue Yan took a step forward and bowed deeply to Jiang Hao, "Xue Yan will do his best to do this well, and live up to the trust of the city."
Jiang Hao nodded, "Okay, you go, the quicker the action, the better for us."
Zhu Guang stepped forward, suddenly opened his blood bowl and swallowed more than a dozen boxes of silver into his abdomen, and then Xue Xuan disappeared with five ghosts.
Only Jiang Hao and Kaifeng Fucheng left in the lobby. Jiang Hao pondered for a moment and asked, "Where are there more birds?"
"What do you ask the bird?"
"Most birds eat locusts. The locusts move fast and can fly dozens of miles in an instant. I plan to convene birds to help kill locusts, so that they can be eliminated as soon as possible, so that the people will lose less." Jiang Hao said.
The head of Wuqing Tao thought for a while, and said hesitantly: "City, there is indeed a place where there are countless birds, but it is not easy to drive."
"Oh, why not drive."
"Back to the city, there is a place called Feixian Lake in the vast mountains at the border between Henan and Shanxi. There is a group of monsters with excellent birds, known as bird fairy, and there are countless bird flocks."
"But there is a big demon sitting there, but it is an eagle king. His strength has reached the Jindan period, and he is more talented. He flies extremely fast and has his shelter. No one dares to hunt.
"Before I was in the name of the city lord, I conveyed to you the demon order you ordered, but the Eagle King wrote back, but said that he didn't want to be restrained, and didn't promise to surrender. The locust plague. "
Fei Xian Lake,
Bird fairy.
Jiang Hao remembered that a story in Liao Zhai was about the bird fairy.
"How does the Eagle King and the Bird Demon behave?" Jiang Hao asked.
The head of the Wuqing hurriedly replied: "The eagle king and the bird demon have never harmed anyone. They just want to live in the mountains safely and not be disturbed. Even if there are bird catchers, they just drive and never hurt."
Jiang Hao nodded, thinking in his heart.
"I see. I'll take care of this. You will cooperate fully with the city to handle the locust disaster." Jiang Hao said.
"Yes, sir!"
Exiting the city hall, the little fox was sitting next to him in a daze, Jiang Hao smiled, "Is it boring?"
Seeing Jiang Hao coming back, the little fox stood up immediately and smiled, "Not boring, I was just pondering the husband's biography of my wall-penetrating technique."
On the way, Jiang Hao was idle. He taught the little foxes a few small spells, among them the wall penetrating. The little foxes did not have the talents of Jiang Hao, and have not yet learned.
"Is Lang Jun's business done?" Asked the little fox.
"Well, the explanation is almost done. Let the local capitals and local cities do it. How about taking you to the mountains now? I heard that there is a Feixian Lake in the mountains and a group of birds and monsters live. I am going to take a look . "Jiang Hao said.
"Okay, okay!" Said the little fox immediately. UU Reading Book www. uukanshu.com
The two left the Temple of the City God, Jiang Hao waved his spells, covered the figures, stepped on the flying sword to the northwest, and spent half a day at work. The two saw a large mountain. Here they have reached the junction of Henan and Shanxi.
After flying for a while, I saw a large lake in the mountains. There were countless various birds flying on the lake. Jiang Hao knew that the place was here. He flew down on the waist of the little fox and landed on the lake.
As soon as they fell, two birds, one red and one green, flew over and surrounded Jiang Hao and Hu Xinyue for two laps. Jiang Hao looked up at them, and the breath emanating from them, Jiang Hao knew that they had become The fine monster.
Flutter ~!
The two birds flew down, and as soon as they landed, their body brushes changed into two beautiful women, one in red and one in green.
The two women looked at Jiang Hao and Hu Xinyue, and they were obviously vigilant. Among them, the woman in green shirt asked: "You come down from the sky, you should be a monk to see the breath. I don't know what happened to Fei Xianhu?"
