Chapter six hundred and thirteenth capture (for the general nine)
Ten days later.
The scene of Qingzhou Mansion’s dilapidation and resentment is gone!
Although the faces of the common people still have a waxy color, everyone's expressions are full of hope and longing!
In just ten days, the locusts in Qingzhou Prefecture learned what it means to be the terrifying leader of all things.
Even the people in the eight prefectures of Qingzhou Prefecture, even those who are illiterate, know what the big characters on the notices posted on the city walls of each state mean. These big characters represent the ardent hopes of the imperial ministers.
If more than three locusts fly together, catch them!
"Third brother, I am really impressed by you. In just ten days, the disaster-stricken Qingzhou Prefecture has been rejuvenated. This is a scene that has never been seen in disaster relief. Now when the people mention the locusts, instead of feeling afraid, they are eager to try and gather here.
Officials from various prefectures and counties in Qingzhou City have gradually begun to leave and return to their own places!"
Liu Mingzhi put down the official documents that were rushed from various states. There were official documents from the governors of various states and official documents that Long Wuwei secretly inquired about. Liu Mingzhi compared them all one by one!
After taking a sip of tea, Liu Mingzhi looked at Song Qing who was in high spirits: "Have you still not found out the news about Chang Yunfeng and Qiao Changjing?"
Song Qing shook his head helplessly: "Don't keep mentioning frustrating things. Brother is talking about the locust plague in Qingzhou Prefecture!"
Liu Mingzhi put down his teacup and sighed: "I'm also talking about the locust plague. As long as Chang Yunfeng and Qiao Changjing can't be found, the locust plague in Qingzhou is far from over!"
"But now the people are full of energy, and they no longer live a life of three hours a day. Although the locusts outside the city are almost extinct now, there are still many children wandering around catching locusts. This is not a good thing.
The locust plague is gone, and the people now have food in their hands. I have never seen such perfect disaster relief since ancient times!"
"But have you ever thought about it, the food we transported first and the 300,000 shi of food have been almost exhausted. How long can the food distributed to the people last?"
"Isn't there still food in the treasury? Now that the victims have left the camp, the food in the treasury is enough to last until next year!"
"Jiang Lei, hereby order all the officials of the state government, from the provincial governor to the literary clerk, to order the people to reclaim the land and stop catching locusts from now on!"
"Creating land? Sir, are you sure you're right?"
"Tell the people everywhere that if you believe me, go and reclaim the land. If you don't believe it, forget it. There are still many people who are depleting their food. Then start working for relief. Tell them that as long as they reclaim a certain amount of land, they can receive
Eat the government’s food!”
"yes!"
"Master Liu, can I come in?"
"come in!"
Qinglian put her hands behind her back and smiled lightly as she looked at Liu Mingzhi, Song Qing and others sitting on the chairs: "Husband, eldest brother!"
Liu Mingzhi looked at Qinglian with a smile: "Why are you here!"
"I must be missing you, why else could I do it?"
It seemed that the locust plague issue was almost settled in Song Qing Dynasty, and he was also in the mood to joke about it.
Qinglian waved the bamboo stick in her hand and looked at Liu Mingzhi: "Husband, I finally have all the sex, fragrance and flavor I can make. Do you want to try it?"
Liu Mingzhi looked at the five or six golden locusts on the bamboo stick and swallowed his saliva: "It looks good, it's not burnt this time!"
In Song Qing's stunned eyes, Young Master Liu gently ate the locust that Qinglian handed to his mouth.
I nodded with satisfaction, it was crunchy and full of color, aroma and taste. It tasted great!
"You eat locusts?"
Song Qing's hand holding the tea cup was trembling, and he looked in disbelief at Mr. Liu who was chewing locusts from time to time with a very satisfied expression on his face.
Qinglian also picked a locust and stuffed it into her mouth, chewing it slowly!
"Brother and sister, you"
Liu Mingzhi took the bamboo stick and walked to Song Qing: "Would you like to try it?"
"Uh-huh." Song Qing's face turned green and he hurriedly leaned back: "No, no, no, don't come close to me, move away quickly, what he's talking about is not mutton, but locusts, grandma, these are locusts! I don't want to eat them.
, I won’t eat even if you beat me to death!”
Liu Mingzhi rolled his eyes and stuffed a locust into Song Qing's howling mouth, and the cry suddenly stopped.
Song Qing felt the locusts in his mouth in horror. He tried it with his tongue, then tried it again, and then tried it again!
He chewed it twice gently and looked at Liu Mingzhi with bright eyes: "It's so fragrant, even better than mutton!"
"You know the goods, do you still want to eat them?"
"How about I give it to two more people to try!"
"Lian'er, give that bunch to big brother, he will be as greedy as a dog after seeing shit and can't walk!"
Qinglian glanced angrily at Liu Mingzhi and handed the fried locusts to Song Qing: "Husband, can't you put it nicely, don't you think it's disgusting?"
Yeah yeah yeah
Liu Mingzhi didn't say anything, but Song Qingba's chirping voice was quite loud.
"You know why I exchange locusts for rice, do you think it's a loss?"
Song Qing shook his head hurriedly and looked at Young Master Liu earnestly: "You didn't throw away those locusts, did you?"
"How could it be lost? Didn't you find out what Cheng Kai has been doing these days?"
Song Qing scratched his head in confusion: "It's true when you say it. I've been changing locusts for more than ten days and I haven't seen this guy Cheng Kai!"
"He went to get locust meal. These locusts are used by the people for the people. Once there is a problem with the food, they have important uses. This is real meat meal!"
"Oh my god, you're not going to let these people eat locusts, are you?"
"Does it smell good?"
"It's so sexy!"
"In the past ten days, Lian'er and I have been exchanging locusts for rice among various states. We have finally stabilized the situation in Qingzhou. Now it's time to investigate the situation in Qingzhou. For example, the Qingzhou government treasury left the city that day.
The whereabouts of that batch of grain, Lian'er, do you still remember where that batch of grain was transported?"
"Remember, Xiaolong can smell the scent left by it within a month, and it has only been more than ten days without any problems!"
"That's good, brother, you go investigate all the affairs of all the officials of Qingzhou Prefecture in the past six months, including the affairs of the White Lotus Sect, and see how they got involved with the people of Qingzhou Prefecture!"
"Still checking!"
"Check, there must be something we have overlooked!"
"All right!"
"Lian'er, go take Xiaolong. I'll wait for you outside the governor's mansion. We'll ride a horse out of the city!"
"Yes, I'll go right away!"
"Brother, don't be careless in your inquiries about Chang Yunfeng. My Golden Dragon Emperor's Order is still with him. As long as we don't find him, the matter in Qingzhou will not be over. I was afraid of causing a commotion, so I never dared to disclose this matter!
"
Song Qing looked at Liu Mingzhi in confusion: "The Golden Dragon Emperor's order is on Chang Yunfeng? Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"It's not that I didn't tell you earlier that there has always been a huge bureau operating in Qingzhou Prefecture. We must find a way to untie him. The people's hearts are stable. As long as they can cultivate the land and try to grow winter wheat with peace of mind, I can safely investigate everything about Qingzhou.
,do you understand!"
"I'll go right away. I'll have to dig three feet into Qingzhou to find him!"
