Chapter five hundred and seventy-two, locusts, also known as grasshoppers(1/2)

Faced with this combination of drought and locust plague.

Luo Ji quickly pressed pause and ran back to the real world to think of a solution.

The locust plague is relatively far away for Luo Ji.

Because apart from the human population, their kingdom has never had any other species flourish.

Because whatever species becomes rampant, whatever species will appear on their dining table...

Locusts, also known as grasshoppers, aren't they one of the many ingredients in their empire?

And it's quite expensive.

It is a green food in every sense.

Look at how locusts are described in their entry on the people of the Great Celestial Dynasty.

Locusts, also known as grasshoppers, are distributed in North China, East China, Central and South China and other regions.

After harvesting, remove the wings, feet, wash them, scald them with boiling water and eat them after death. They are high in protein and are the most ideal food.

There are also a few recipes attached below.

"..."

Luo Ji was stunned for a moment while watching this section.

The locusts are calling the police!

The most terrible thing is that it is clearly stated that it can strengthen the spleen and eliminate food, relieve wind and spasm, relieve cough and asthma, and also unblock meridians!

Rich in protein and fat, calcium, phosphorus, iron, copper, manganese, vitamins A, B and other ingredients!

Luo Ji didn't mind actually turning these locusts into a plate of fried grasshoppers and bringing them to the dinner table.

If only this dish could become popular.

He estimated that there would be no locust plagues in his world civilization in the future.

All must be strangled in the cradle.

But now the locust plague has begun to cause trouble.

It's obviously too late to start eating now.

He currently needs a way to stop the locusts before they eat up his crops!

Check out ancient methods of dealing with locust plagues.

He looked unreliable.

Then his mind changed and he changed his search method.

Luo Ji quickly typed this sentence into the search bar...

"The natural enemy of locusts!"

That's right, it's the same as fighting. If the other side sends cavalry, you send spearmen to fight.

In other words, wouldn’t it be enough to use something designed to target locusts?

After a quick check, Luo Ji found useful content.

The natural enemies of locusts are birds!

Moreover, as early as the Ming Dynasty, the people of the Celestial Dynasty had already thought of the biological control method of "raising ducks to eliminate locusts".

And achieved excellent results!

To put it simply, he only needs to ask people in various poultry farms to raise a large number of chickens, ducks and poultry in the fields.

These poultry like to eat locusts and use locusts as food.

In this way, we can feed the poultry and deal with the locust plague at the same time. This method can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

Luo Ji thought it over carefully and hurried back to the other world to draw up a warrant.

He signaled that fences should be erected around the fields, and then ordered the poultry farms in each city to put all the poultry in their farms into those fields.

Thanks to Luo Ji who had previously tried a lot of Kaifeng cuisine and braised food restaurants.

The poultry industry in the civilization of all worlds has not only come back to life, but has even become more prosperous than before.

They didn't have to pay for feed, and they even got a bonus from Luo Ji.

Where can I find such good things?

How could those poultry farm owners say no?

After an announcement was sent out.

In just half a day, a large number of poultry were released into the fields of various cities.

At a glance, a large number of chickens and ducks are running around in the fields.

Not to mention living locusts.

Even if they are buried in the soil, locust eggs will be picked out and eaten before they are born.

This natural enemy is really not for nothing.

You eat your crops, and if I throw a bunch of chickens, ducks, and poultry in the field to eat your crops, who is afraid of whom?

Luo Ji's method was quite effective.

The locust plague was controlled in a short period of time.

Taking advantage of this momentum, Luo Ji posted another announcement explaining the locusts.

Locusts, also known as grasshoppers, are rich in nutrients!

It can strengthen the spleen and eliminate food, relieve wind and spasm, relieve cough and asthma...

Luo Ji, who was writing this announcement at the time, could be said to be full of malice.

At the same time that this announcement was posted, a new dish called 'fried grasshopper' appeared in the major restaurants under Luo Ji's own name.

For a moment, the people looked at each other in shock.

"Can these insects be eaten?"

"I want you to eat it, but I look disgusting anyway."

"But His Majesty's announcement said that these insects are rich in nutrients, can strengthen the spleen, eliminate food, calm wind and relieve spasms, etc."

"Yes, your Majesty has so many things to do all day long, you can't just entertain us with nothing, right?"

"If this is true, I feel like this insect is a great tonic."

"Isn't it? The price is not cheap, a plate of fried grasshoppers costs this much..."

While talking, one of them stretched out his hand and made a gesture.

There is no shortage of people in this world who like to try new things.

Especially Luo Ji's golden signboard.

Coupled with the previous Kaifeng cuisine, a large number of people are somewhat addicted to fried food.

And this fried grasshopper happens to be fried too.

No, this is the time spent talking.

Someone sat down in the store, pointed at the menu and spoke...

"Waiter, bring me a plate of fried grasshoppers!"

The food was served quickly.

The plate of fried grasshoppers that was served attracted the attention of many diners.

The man who ordered the food put his nose up and smelled it.

Despite the somewhat unappetizing appearance of the grasshopper, the smell is quite okay.

The person who can order this dish at such a time is obviously a man.

Without stopping, he stretched out his chopsticks and stuffed one into his mouth.

As a result, I took one bite.

The man who looked ferocious one moment could not help but raise his brows the next moment.

"Um?!!!"

"this……"

After spitting out a word, the man directly stuffed another fried grasshopper into his mouth.

Then he chewed it loudly.

It actually feels like the more you chew it, the stronger it gets.

This appearance undoubtedly made the diners standing around waiting for the results feel uncomfortable.
